Chapter 37 - Chapter 37: The Day the Sun Went Silent

[System Alert: Divine Throne Claimed – Aureon: God of Order and Light]

You now possess the Seat of Illumination. New Skills Unlocked: Solar Domination (Passive) | Divine Rebuke (Active)

Warning: You have made yourself a threat to the remaining pantheon.

Across the Realms

Temples cracked.

Oracles screamed.

Priests tore their robes in horror.

Aureon — the oldest of the gods — had fallen.

And his seat?

Now bore the name: Selene Virellia.

Kaelion – That Night

He found her alone, sitting on the Sun Throne's cracked remains.

She looked like prophecy and ash.

He didn't speak for a long time.

Then:

"You're becoming something I don't know how to love."

She didn't look at him.

"Then learn."

Lucien – Beneath the Divine Graveyard

He touched the roots of the broken sky.

Whispers of extinct gods circled him like a choir.

"She's done it," he said. "They'll come for her now."

He placed his hand to the stone.

"Let them. I've been preparing for this since the first time I watched her burn."

The Divine Council — Realm of Mirrors

The gods gathered in panic.

"She took Aureon's power."

"She can nullify us."

"She walks unbound."

One goddess stood.

Scarred. Old. Dressed in moonlight and knives.

"Then we strike first."

Twelve seals ignited in the air.

Each one glowing with divine law.

Final Scene

Selene walked alone through the temple she'd claimed.

Her eyes lifted—

As twelve stars fell from the heavens.

Not meteors.

Not omens.

Assassins.

Each one blessed by a god. Each one unkillable.

Until now.

[System Alert: Divine Killers Incoming. Elite Tier.]

Warning: Survival Rate — 9%

Selene smiled coldly.

"Then let the odds burn, too."
