Scene 1: Before Sim Hoyun Gets Slammed (Flashback – Cliffside)

[Location: Cliff Edge – Shadow Canyon]

The camera pans over two cloaked figures standing behind a jagged rock, overlooking a battlefield below.

Unknown Figure #1 (checking a glowing device on his wrist)

🗨️ "Void levels just spiked… You sure we're not jumping in too early?"

Unknown Figure #2 (smirking)

🗨️ "He's finished, man. Toast. Might as well send flowers."

(pauses, flicks a switch on his wrist)

🗨️ "Let's go. Front row seats — from the inside."

A sharp, electric hum crackles through the air.

A portal swirls open mid-air — black and indigo spiraling like liquid night.

The two step inside.

The portal seals behind them with a low thunderclap.

---

Scene 2: Inside the Void (Present Time)

Pitch-black space. Floating stars like ashes drifting through a dream.

The same two figures walk across a surface that shifts like liquid shadow.

Unknown Figure #1 (grinning)

🗨️ "Gotta love the Portal Gauntlet. Cliffside to cosmic chaos in one blink."

Unknown Figure #2 (nodding, eyes faintly glowing)

🗨️ "And right on cue.

Look at him...

Even while breaking, Sim Hoyun doesn't disappear.

That kid's not normal."

---

Scene 3: The Dying Light

Visual:

The camera slowly pans up from a shattered battlefield.

Smoke. Blood. Thunder rolling across a burning sky.

Charred trees stand like skeletons.

A single figure kneels in the center of the ruin.

SIM HOYUN — face bloodied, one arm dangling lifelessly, chest rising with short, ragged breaths.

The camera zooms in.

His eyes — one barely open — are filled not with fear… but defiance.

Sim (voice low, raspy, unbroken)

🗨️ "I'm… still alive."

Wide shot:

He's alone.

Soldiers down. Civilians gone.

Only Sim stands between the city… and it — the towering figure floating above.

---

Scene 4: The Eye of Destruction

The massive being floats just above the earth.

Black and red robes tattered by wind.

Its face is hidden behind a jagged metal mask, but one glowing eye pierces through.

It speaks — voice deep, grating like tectonic plates grinding.

CLOAK MONSTER

🗨️ "You still resist?

Then witness...

The Eye of Destruction."

The monster raises its head.

Its hidden eye opens — but this is no normal eye.

The iris is a black spiral, endless — surrounded by rings of fiery runes.

When it opens — the clouds above shatter.

The world dims.

A weight presses down, as if gravity itself gasps.

---

Scene 5: The Sudden Rain… and a Stranger's Voice

Just as the beam begins to charge—

The wind halts.

The lightning freezes, mid-bolt.

And… a single raindrop falls.

Then another.

And another.

Then dozens.

Suddenly — from the sky —

A colorful umbrella floats down, spinning.

Beneath it, a figure descends slowly, twirling gently like a dancer.

Dressed in a rainbow jacket. White sneakers. Untouched by the chaos.

The music shifts — a smooth jazz-funk groove replaces the tension.

The stranger lands lightly, umbrella tapping the ground once.

He lifts his head — a calm smile, eyes twinkling with something strange.

He speaks — fluent, playful, and completely out of place:

🗨️ "Excuse me…"

---

SCENE 5.5 – Enter the Savior: Aroma

🌧️ The rain dances gently as the stranger steps forward.

🗨️ "Hold it right there, darling... I'll take it from here."

🗨️ "Hope has arrived — and brought a little swagger."

The camera pans upward...

He stands tall: 🌈 Hair dyed in two colors.

👔 Half tuxedo, half hoodie.

🟡 Bright yellow boots.

🍭 Twirling a rainbow lollipop between his fingers.

And that grin —

A grin so bold, it could make the Grim Reaper blush.

He winks at the camera.

---

SCENE 6 – The World Watches

Suddenly—

Screens across the world flicker.

Emergency broadcast cameras zoom in.

In a café, a family's living room, a subway train… people stare in disbelief.

Random Bystander 1 (shouting):

🗨️ "Oh my god! It's HIM! The Last Hope of Earth!"

Random Bystander 2:

🗨️ "Wait—what?! That meme guy is REAL?!"

Back in the Void Realm, the Two Observers chuckle.

🗨️ "Well well… here comes the chaos carnival."

🗨️ "The clown with a cause. Earth's last laugh."

Even the Cloak Monster tilts its head slightly, baffled.

It genuinely didn't see this twist coming.

The colorful stranger lands softly — now barefoot — directly in front of Sim Hoyun, shielding him with his umbrella.

THE SAVIOR (smirking):

🗨️ "Tired already, warrior?

Take five.

I'll deal with this gothic budget Voldemort over here."

---

SCENE 7 – META BREAKDOWN

Tension begins to rise again...

But then —

A sudden voice, NOT from the battlefield, erupts.

It's raw. Real. Echoey. Breaking the fourth wall entirely.

UNKNOWN VOICE (shouting):

🗨️ "WAIT WAIT WAIT!

What the hell is going on here?!"

🗨️ "Hey AUTHOR!

Where's the serious hero of this story?!

Why's this turned into a comedy circus?!"

Everything. Stops.

Raindrops hang in the air.

Lightning freezes mid-flash.

Even the Cloak Monster… pauses with its mouth half open.

The Earth shudders.

It's as if the entire world is… rebooting.

---

SCENE 8 – Back to Reality (Phone POV)

Cut to: A dimly lit room.

A guy — the AUTHOR — frantically types on his phone, fully immersed in the chaos he's creating.

📱 Phone Screen: 1% Battery Remaining.

Suddenly — BLACKOUT.

The phone shuts off.

AUTHOR (yelling):

🗨️ "Nooo! Not now! Not at the climax!"

He scrambles to find a charger, plugs it in.

The screen lights up again.

AUTHOR (muttering to himself with a grin):

🗨️ "If you're liking this story… drop a comment, folks.

Now it's about to get real."

---

SCENE 9 – THE RESUME: Let the Story Begin

As soon as the phone gets power again...

The world unpauses.

🌧️ Rain resumes.

⚡ Thunder cracks.

😤 The Cloak Monster screams in rage.

THE SAVIOR (licking his lollipop):

🗨️ "Ah, scene restarted?

Perfect."

He tosses the umbrella like a javelin —

Mid-air, it morphs into a magical staff, glowing with comedic chaos.

Sim Hoyun, lying injured, cracks a smile.

He's not alone anymore.

Narrator (epic tone):

🗨️ "And thus… began the legend of the rainbow fighter, the paused world,

and the 1% battery author."

Somewhere, someone screams:

🗨️ "Bro this is NOT the time for jokes!!"

The Savior grins.

> 🗨️ "Oh but jokes… are my superpower.

The name's Funny Savior.

But you… can call me Aroma."

He snaps his fingers — and the clouds begin to part, just a little.

---

SCENE 10 – Enter Aroma: The Real Deal

AROMA (calmly, eyes glowing):

🗨️ "I only show up when the world has forgotten how to laugh...

And I fight to make it smile again."

🔥 The ground rumbles beneath them.

The Cloak Monster rises, now surrounded by flames and black energy.

Its voice booms — like a demonic chant, layered and ancient:

> 🗨️ "You… are different.

There is something in you no human should possess.

You are the most powerful being on this Earth."

---

Scene 11: Power Reveal – Dual Attribute

Aroma (grinning):

> "Oh no, bro… there are people way above my league. Their entry time just hasn't arrived yet. They'll be here by 6 for sure.

Right now it's 4 AM. Two hours is plenty — shall we wrap this up before that?"

The Cloak Monster lets out a dark, menacing laugh.

Then, he removes his cloak.

> What emerges is a hulking humanoid jaguar, its skin shimmering like night itself, its eyes glowing like twin eclipses.

A black-gold flaming aura swirls around him, pulsing with raw demonic energy.

Aroma steps forward and tosses his sunglasses aside.

His aura splits — half blue, half red — but instead of clashing, they move in perfect harmony, like a celestial dance.

> Water coils around his left side.

Fire blazes on his right.

They spiral toward each other — not to collide… but to fuse into STEAM.

Aroma:

> "Fire and Water. The two most opposite elements in existence.

No one's ever controlled them together…

But since I love making fun of rules — I turned them into a joke too."

He claps.

> STEAM DRAGON rises — a colossal beast made of vapor and flame, glowing with raw, chaotic elemental energy.

The Cloak Monster roars and summons his own beast —

> a Hellfire Dragon, its scales embedded with skulls, breathing infernal death.

The two dragons clash in the sky — steam hissing, flames roaring.

---

Scene 12: Dialogue Before Mayhem

Cloak Monster (gritting his teeth):

> "You're underestimating me."

Aroma (winking):

> "No no, not underestimating…

I'm just taking you lightly roasted."

Suddenly, Aroma disappears into steam — teleporting behind the monster mid-air —

delivers a powerful kick, launching the jaguar downwards into the earth.

Boom! — the monster slams into a crater.

Aroma lands, bloodied, his jacket torn — but still grinning.

> "Now you're finally not looking like a joke…

This is where the real fun begins!"

---

Scene 13: The Battle Intensifies

A furious blend of martial arts and elemental mastery.

Aroma uses bursting steam jets for insane speed.

He conjures boiling geysers to block incoming attacks.

His flaming fists glow like volcanic gauntlets.

He chants:

> "Now you're really gonna get cooked —

Steam Style: Dragon Roast Smash!!"

BOOM!

The punch connects. The Hellfire Dragon staggers — half of its body evaporating into the sky.

But then…

> The jaguar's eyes blaze brighter than ever.

"There's no room for jokes in my hell...

Every second there is pure agony."

He transforms.

Unleashing his true form —

> a 50-meter tall demonic jaguar, burning with crimson hellfire:

Hell Jaguar: Shaitanik Roar Mode.

---

Scene 14: Cliffhanger

The battlefield cracks. Lava explodes from the ground.

The city trembles.

The clock ticks — 4:52 AM.

Aroma, battered and bruised, but still smirking:

> "In 8 minutes, either you're done…

Or I am.

Only one of us will be laughing by then."

> Screen fades to black.

> Next Episode Title Appears:

"Who Survives Until 6 AM?"
