EPISODE-19 — THE ART OF SHADOW II: TRIAL OF THE SHADOW EMPEROR
Subtitle: "In the Heart of Dying Night"
INTRO — A WORLD WITHOUT LIGHT, YET FULL OF POWER
The fight with the Shadow Emperor has not begun—
But the Shadow Realm already feels like it is rejecting Kanoji and Tokosi's existence.
The sky — if this place even has a sky — bends like melted glass.
Every heartbeat echoes like a drum inside a hollow universe.
The air thickens…
The Wand trembles…
And then the world falls completely silent.
A silence deeper than death.
A silence that erases thoughts.
A silence where souls feel naked.
A voice breaks it:
"Children of light and shadow… step forward."
The Emperor raises his hand.
The throne behind him dissolves into black dust.
A single crack opens in the sky — glowing rose-pink, the first color in this realm for thousands of years.
But it's only a warning.
The trial begins.
THE TRIAL OF THE SHADOW EMPEROR — REALITY AS A WEAPON
The Emperor moves—not fast, but inevitable.
Where he steps, the ground turns to liquid darkness.
"Show me the truth of what you have become."
The world splits into three layers:
Realm of Fear
Realm of Memory
Realm of Forbidden Power
Kanoji and Tokosi are dragged into all three at once.
Their vision fractures.
They see themselves die, win, lose, break, heal, scream, laugh — all at the same time.
This is not a battle.
This is survival of identity.
KANOJI — THE SHADOW SOVEREIGN UNLEASHED (Unstable Form II)
Kanoji's body cracks with pure void energy.
His shadow clone from before?
Now it becomes a hundred-eyed beast, always shifting shape, always ready.
He opens his hand—
And a black sun forms inside his palm.
His aura becomes so dense the Shadow Emperor actually pauses.
NEW POWER — VOID STAR ANOMALY
• Creates a miniature dying star of pure darkness
• Consumes magic
• Bends time slightly
• Damages even "concepts" (like courage, focus, memory)
The Emperor smiles behind the mask.
"Good. Pain has made you interesting."
TOKOSI — THE FROZEN SHADE ASCENDED (Silent Widow Omega)
Tokosi becomes translucent again—
But this time her body is covered in floating ice runes, each one a frozen memory of someone she defeated.
She flickers, disappears, reappears—
But now she can reappear inside the Emperor's shadow, forcing him to move.
Her voice becomes layered, echoing like a choir of ghosts.
NEW POWER — GLACIAL VOID RECITAL
• Freezes intent, not just objects
• Stops killing moves before they are born
• Her fear-detection radius increases to 30 km
• Her presence becomes a cold that even the Shadow Emperor acknowledges
"A hunter born from silence… interesting."
THE SHADOW EMPEROR — TRUE FORM BEGINS TO AWAKEN
His obsidian mask cracks.
A red glow leaks from inside, burning through the darkness.
All shadows in the realm pull toward him like tides obeying the moon.
A second pair of arms grows behind him.
His voice becomes a swarm of whispers.
"Do not disappoint me."
The Emperor's true aura overwhelms everything:
• Blades of negative gravity
• Fire that burns sound
• Darkness that infects thoughts
• Chains made of compressed shadows of dead worlds
Kanoji and Tokosi struggle—
But something else awakens.
THE 10 TALES KITSUNE — THE BLUE MYSTERY OF THE MAGICAL WORLD
Far away…
Beyond the battlefield…
Beyond the Emperor's trial…
A soft blue flame appears.
Then another.
And another.
Ten tails unfold from the darkness like celestial ribbons, glowing blue-white like the surface of a dying star.
A fox steps forward—
Wearing a blue Kitsune mask, carved with ancient runes.
His aura gently shakes reality, even stronger than the Emperor for a second.
His footsteps sound like bells underwater.
He whispers:
"This world… still remembers me."
His Level?
LEVEL: 100,000
But in this magical world, even level 100,000 can surpass a million—
Because some creatures are beyond logic.
His blue aura spirals into the sky, creating cracks of light.
THE KITSUNE'S FORMS (Revealed)
1. Azure Spirit Form
• Floating body of blue flames
• Eyes like moonwater
• Pure speed, zero sound
• Can phase through matter
2. Celestial Fox Warrior Form
• Fox armor made of blue ice
• Twin void-blades
• Tail-shields that block conceptual attacks
3. Tenth Tail Ascendance (Forbidden)
• Reality bends around him
• Creates void blossoms in the air
• Time slows whenever he looks at something
• Power equal to a small god
His presence alone forces the Shadow Emperor to glance upward.
The Emperor whispers:
"…you."
The fox chuckles softly.
"Don't mind me. Continue your little trial."
FINAL MOMENT — THE SKY RETURNS
The Shadow Realm flickers—
The cracks in the sky widen until rose-pink night pours in, soft and silent.
A blue moon rises…
And from it, the Kitsune floats down gently, his tails waving like cosmic banners.
Kanoji and Tokosi look up.
The Kitsune lands on a floating rock, folds his arms, and says:
"The magical things…
I like them."
The blue flames around him bloom like flowers.
TO BE CONTINUED…

THE INVASION OF MISTER X
EPISODE-20 — THE DAMN MOON
Subtitle: "The 10-Tales Kitsune: The Blue Moon Godling"
INTRO — THE MOON THAT BREATHES
The sky above the Shadow Realm shatters like glass dipped in rose-pink twilight.
The cracks widen…
Light spills down like liquid moonfire…
And then — the moon drops.
A massive blue sphere descends from the heavens, pulsing like a beating heart.
It is not a moon.
It is a creature sleeping inside the sky.
A creature older than emperors, shadows, and even magic itself.
The Kitsune raises his hand.
One move.
One snap of his fingers.
And the Blue Moon opens its eye.
A colossal, swirling pupil of pure sapphire stares down at the world.
The Shadow Emperor freezes.
Even the shadows bow.
Kanoji whispers:
"…the moon is alive?"
Tokosi answers softly:
"No.
It's controlled."
The Kitsune smiles behind his mask—
"Let's begin."
The night bends.
The trial is over.
The real fight begins.
THE 10-TALES KITSUNE — DOMINION OF THE BLUE MOON
He lifts his arm toward the sky.
His tails spread like wings of burning blue silk.
His voice becomes a soft murmur:
"Move: Tsukihana Requiem."
A single petal of blue flame leaves his fingertip…
…touches the moon…
…and the world collapses.
Gravity twists. Time melts at the edges. Light bends into spirals.
The Blue Moon awakens fully and falls under his command.
It emits a slow, terrifying hum— A song older than creation itself.
Then—
Moonlight condenses into spears.
Thousands.
Millions.
Each one aims at Kanoji and Tokosi.
No warm-up.
No warning.
Just murder.
KANOJI VS. THE BLUE MOON — VOID STAR ANOMALY UNLEASHED
Kanoji slams both hands forward—
A miniature black sun erupts from his chest, screaming like a dying universe.
VOID STAR ANOMALY:
SECOND DETONATION
The spears of moonlight crash into the black sun—
Space bends.
Color evaporates.
Time stutters.
Kanoji falls to one knee, blood pouring from his left eye, but he forces the star to expand.
"COME ON THEN! LET'S SEE WHO BREAKS FIRST!"
His voice shakes the realm.
For a second—
The Blue Moon actually slows.
But the Kitsune whispers:
"Cute.
But the moon does not bow to stars."
He flicks a finger.
The Blue Moon doubles its output.
Kanoji's shadow beast struggles to hold the barrier—
And cracks begin to form inside Kanoji's ribs.
TOKOSI — THE SILENT WIDOW OMEGA AGAINST IMPOSSIBILITY
Tokosi steps forward, her ice-runes glowing brighter than ever.
She inhales—
And the world freezes.
GLACIAL VOID RECITAL
CHAPTER III — "Frozen Destiny"
She stops the intent of the moonlight.
Not the light itself—
The thought behind it.
Moonlight trembles mid-air, confused for the first time in millennia.
But the Kitsune simply tilts his head.
A single tail rises…
And erases her power like wiping fog from a mirror.
Tokosi's breath vanishes.
Her heartbeat becomes slow.
Cold spreads through her blood.
The Kitsune whispers:
"Pretty.
But too small."
He snaps—
A beam of moonlight hits her chest—
Tokosi is flung into a collapsing cliff, ice exploding around her like shattered glass.
Kanoji screams her name—
But the moon shifts again.
And now it points at him.
THE SHADOW EMPEROR… WATCHING
For the first time, the Emperor fears.
His voice, trembling under the mask:
"…your moon.
Why does it follow you like a dog?"
The Kitsune looks down at him as if he's beneath existence.
"Because I killed its mother."
The Emperor's aura shakes.
Kanoji and Tokosi both freeze.
The Kitsune shrugs casually:
"So now it listens."
THE BLUE MOON'S TRUE FORM — THE HEART OF STILLNESS
The moon cracks open.
Not like stone—
But like an egg.
Blue liquid falls like rain.
Pure moon-essence.
Deadly.
Alive.
Holy and unholy at the same time.
A giant silhouette emerges inside the moonlight.
An ancient celestial beast.
Hundred horns.
Four wings.
Skin made of glowing scripts.
Kitsune's voice becomes silk:
"Do you like my pet?
Her name is Stillness."
The creature roars silently— The sound wave hits the land before the roar itself happens.
Kanoji's bones aim to break.
Tokosi's lungs freeze.
Even the Emperor steps back.
But Kitsune is just playing.
He waves his hand:
"Stillness, darling.
Let's see if these two can survive."
The beast charges.
THE RESCUE — A BLUE PORTAL OPENS
Just when Kanoji's void star collapses—
Just when Tokosi coughs blood—
Just when Stillness is about to crush them—
A portal of bright neon blue slashes open.
A voice yells:
"MOVE, YOU IDIOTS!"
Aki jumps out, spinning in the air, landing in front of Tokosi.
Beside her—
A boy with matching eyes and hair, holding a giant VR-forged halberd.
Aki's brother.
"Sorry we're late," he says.
"Somebody broke the moon again."
Aki glares at Kitsune.
"You.
Fox boy.
Back.
Off."
The Kitsune tilts his head slowly.
Almost intrigued.
Almost… impressed.
THE FINAL MOMENT — THE LUSTFUL GODLING
The Kitsune steps forward.
His tenth tail glows.
His aura becomes unbearably beautiful—
A cosmic, lethal charm that bends emotions.
He looks directly at Aki.
For the first time, the calm, playful fox loses composure.
A low, hungry whisper leaves his lips—
"This girl…
I need it."
The mask cracks slightly from heat.
Then he adds, voice dripping with desire:
"She's so hot.
Fucking damn."
Blue flames explode behind him like wings.
Aki takes a step back—
Her brother raises his weapon—
Kanoji and Tokosi prepare to fight—
And the Blue Moon widens its eye.
TO BE CONTINUED…
EPISODE-21 — THE MAGIC OF TIME
Subtitle: "Thirty Seconds Against Fate"
INTRO — WHEN THE BLUE MOON REJECTS REALITY
The Blue Moon trembles like a furious living god.
Stillness—the celestial beast—spreads its four wings, and each wing bends the world differently:
One slows gravity,
One twists sound,
One burns shadows,
One erases warmth.
The battlefield becomes a maze of impossible physics.
Aki, her brother, Tokosi, and Kanoji stand together—
But for the first time ever…
They look outmatched.
The Kitsune watches from a floating rock, tails drifting lazily, amused.
"Try not to die yet," he whispers.
"I want the entertainment."
The sky cracks.
The moon roars.
The fight begins.
THE CELESTIAL BEAST STILLNESS — KILLING WITHOUT TOUCHING
Stillness vanishes—
Reappears behind Aki's brother—
Slams a silent shockwave that crushes the air.
Tokosi teleports to counter—
But the beast's fourth wing erases her cold before she can strike.
Kanoji leaps forward—
Void Star Anomaly exploding in his hand—
But the beast's horns twist time around the attack, slowing it into a dripping black syrup.
Aki unloads blasts of VR-energy—
Stillness doesn't even turn its head.
A single blink of its eye sends Aki flying across a broken platform.
She screams—
Blood on her lip—
But stands again.
This beast isn't a monster.
It's a phenomenon.
KANOJI — THE FIRST SPARK OF TIME MAGIC
Kanoji stands in the center of collapsing stone, panting, eyes burning with void-blue sparkles.
Inside him—
A heartbeat stops.
Starts.
Stops again.
Something new pulses in his veins.
A strange, metallic bell-sound echoes in his skull.
Tek… tek… tek…
He feels it.
Time shivering.
His fingers shake.
His shadow-beast coils behind him nervously.
Tokosi senses it.
"Something is changing inside you."
Kanoji grips his chest.
"No.
Not yet.
I can't use it."
Because deep down…
He knows the truth:
This power is too dangerous.
Too unnatural.
Too irreversible.
And his body is not ready.
Not until he needs it.
THE BEAST TARGETS AKI
The Kitsune sits up slightly, curious.
Stillness's eye turns toward Aki.
Aki freezes—
Not in fear.
But because that eye doesn't judge her as an enemy…
It judges her as prey.
Stillness folds its wings inward—
And charges.
Tokosi teleports—
Blocked.
Kanoji jumps—
Too slow.
Aki's brother attacks—
Stillness swats him aside like dust.
The beast appears in front of Aki—
A massive, elegant, world-ending claw raised above her—
Air collapsing around its shape.
She looks up…
Eyes wide…
Realizing there's no escape.
"Kanoji—!"
THE MOMENT THE WORLD FAILS
The claw falls.
Aki's hair lifts from the force.
The moonlight sharpens.
Her heartbeat stops—
And in that second—
Kanoji's fear becomes something else.
Something ancient.
Something forbidden.
The bell-sound in his skull becomes a scream.
TEK—
The world snaps.
TIME MAGIC UNLOCKED — TIME HALT: 30 SECONDS
Kanoji steps forward.
But the world does not move.
The claw hangs frozen inches above Aki's head.
Shattered rocks float in the air.
Tokosi's breath is stuck in her throat.
Aki's brother is locked mid-shout.
Everything is silent.
Everything is still.
Everything is dead.
Except Kanoji.
His eyes glow white-blue, cracks of time-energy running across his arms.
NEW MAGIC — TIME HALT (30 SECONDS)
• Full stoppage of the world
• No movement, no sound, no causality
• Only Kanoji can think, walk, fight
• Using it burns life-force
He whispers:
"…I said not yet."
He looks at Aki's frozen face, inches from death.
Then he stares at Stillness's massive claw.
His voice cracks:
"You don't touch her."
THE 30 SECONDS OF GODHOOD
Kanoji walks through frozen space like through water.
Every footstep makes tiny rings of white light.
He grabs Stillness's claw—
Cracks ripple through its cosmic armor.
He raises his hand—
Void Star ignites in pure temporal flame.
He whispers a single command:
"Break."
He slams the blast into the beast's chest.
The world trembles—
The moon shakes—
The Kitsune's eyes widen for the first time.
But the power tears Kanoji's muscles.
Blood drips from his nose.
His hands shake violently.
He has only ten seconds left.
He leans close to the frozen Aki.
Softly:
"I won't let you die.
Not today."
THE LAST SECOND — TIME RETURNS
1 second.
Kanoji leaps back to safety.
0 seconds.
Time crashes back like a tsunami.
Stillness screams—
Aki falls back—
The claw explodes into blue shards—
The battlefield ripples from the blast Kanoji planted during frozen time.
Everyone stares—
Tokosi
Aki's brother
Aki herself
Even the Kitsune…
Silence.
Kanoji stands alone, blood dripping, chest glowing with dying time-energy.
The Kitsune smirks slowly:
"…ah.
Now this is interesting."
TO BE CONTINUED…
-EPISODE-22— THE X OF KITSUNE
Subtitle: "Face of the Unseen"
INTRO — THE BLOOD-RED DAWN
The sky bleeds crimson. Clouds ripple like viscera, and every shadow shivers with anticipation. The Blue Moon hangs like a cursed eye above the battlefield, dripping liquid moonlight that sizzles wherever it touches. The wind carries screams from a thousand timelines, audible and not, cutting through the air like knives.
Suddenly, Kitsune halts. Silence swallows the chaos. His tenth tail twitches… then flicks forward. With a deafening crack, he rips off his mask.
REVEAL — THE TRUE FACE
It isn't a face. It isn't flesh. It's a raw, exposed brain, pulsing with dark energy. Etched into its folds: ancient runes and glowing blue inscriptions. Veins writhe like serpents, each throb sending shockwaves into the ground. A faint whisper echoes: "You see now… the truth of existence."
Kanoji's shadow beast snarls. Tokosi shivers; ice freezes mid-air around her fingertips. Even Aki's brother flinches. Blood drips from Kitsune's exposed skull-brain as if it were sweating molten ink, each drop hissing and burning wherever it lands.
THE X OF KITSUNE — HORROR UNLEASHED
He raises his tenth tail. Reality distorts. The Blue Moon fractures into shards—giant shards of floating crystal-like flesh, each pulsing with a heartbeat. Kitsune leaps forward at impossible speed.
Transition — EPIC FIGHT OPENER
The battlefield shatters under each step.
Moonlight spikes erupt like jagged towers.
The sky twists into a tunnel of screaming stars.
Kanoji counters, Void Star Anomaly flaring from his chest. Black light collides with Kitsune's brain-beam—the impact tears the ground open. Tokosi channels ice-runes: Glacial Void Recital II. Ice spears shoot, slicing the shards.
But Kitsune doesn't flinch. With a sickening grin (or where a grin would be), he splits reality itself with a flick of his fingers. Blood rains from the shattered sky—red, black, and blue, coagulating midair into monstrous, floating shapes that shriek and lunge at the heroes.
Aki AND BROTHER INTERVENTION
Aki yells: "Don't let him close the distance!"
Her brother swings the VR-halberd in a wide arc. The air warps violently, cutting a path through blood and moonlight fragments.
Kitsune's brain glows brighter, each pulse sending waves of nausea and hallucinations. The ground itself bleeds, screaming in agony. Every shadow twists into monstrous limbs, crawling toward the heroes.
HIGHLIGHT HORROR MOMENT
Aki looks at Kitsune's exposed brain. Whispers fill her mind: "See… the end. The birth of nothing."
She screams, pain clawing through her skull, yet forces herself to strike. Her halberd slices through a blood-monster, but Kitsune only laughs—a soundless, mind-shattering laughter that shakes bones without producing noise.
TO BE CONTINUED…
The battlefield is now a living nightmare. Heroes battered, Kitsune unleashed. The Blue Moon watches. Stillness stirs. And the X of Kitsune looms closer.
-EPISODE-23 — THE LOST ONE
Subtitle: "Welcome Home, Brother."
INTRO — THE DREAM THAT SHOULD NOT EXIST
Kanoji's vision blurs.
The battle-screams fade.
The Blue Moon fractures into silence…
And suddenly—
The world switches off,
like someone pulled the plug on reality.
Darkness.
Absolute, suffocating darkness.
No sound.
No sky.
No heartbeat.
Just… a dim flashlight beam shaking in tiny hands.
THE CHILD WHO HAS NO FACE
A small child stands in the void.
But he has—
No eyes.
No ears.
No nose.
Just smooth, pale skin.
His hair is cut unevenly, almost shaved.
His arms and legs are twisted, unnaturally bent like broken branches.
The child whispers in a trembling voice:
"Anyone… please… help me…"
His flashlight flickers.
Every flicker reveals countless dark shapes watching him from corners—
but none of them move.
He cries again, louder:
"Please… I don't want to disappear…"
No one answers.
No one comes.
Until—
THE MONSTER WHO BREAKS THE RULES
A huge shadow limps forward.
A towering beast with only one arm and one leg, dragging its massive body across the ground.
Its name vibrates through the void like an old heartbeat:
"Jinaung."
It kneels beside the child, voice trembling:
"Don't cry… I'm here."
The child clings to the monster's remaining arm.
But the darkness doesn't like this.
The darkness punishes kindness.
A piercing sound tears through the void—
A single red spear of light impales Jinaung's chest.
The monster falls.
Dead.
Eyes open.
Still holding the child's hand.
Blood spreads like ink across the ground…
THE RULE OF THIS WORLD
Suddenly the void shakes.
Thousand white texts blink into existence around Kanoji:
"IF YOU HELP SOMEONE YOU MIGHT DIE."
"THAT'S THE SIMPLE RULE OF THIS WORLD."
The message repeats.
Not once.
Not twice.
But a thousand times, filling the screen like a virus.
Kanoji tries to move.
He cannot.
He tries to scream.
Nothing comes out.
The dream tightens around him like a throat.
SCREEN BLEEDS — LIGHT STUTTERS
Red blood begins to crawl across the entire vision.
The flashlight flickers violently.
LIGHT ON — darkness moves.
LIGHT OFF — breathing behind him.
LIGHT ON — silence.
LIGHT OFF — footsteps.
LIGHT ON — something inches closer.
A metal crawling sound.
Click… click… click…
Like wood.
Like a puppet.
Like a corpse being controlled by strings.
THE PUPPET GHOST
A ghostly figure walks into the flickering beam—
Its movement jerky, twisted, like a broken marionette dragged by invisible hands.
Neck tilted.
Arms limp.
Feet snapping with every step.
It pauses when the light hits it.
Frozen.
As if the light refuses to let it move.
But when the light flickers off—
click-click-click-click-click!
It moves inches away.
The light returns.
It stops again.
Closer.
Too close.
The flashlight burns out entirely.
THE RED LIGHT — THE DOLL GIRL
A red siren‑like light turns on overhead.
Standing under it—
A small girl,
white skin,
black button‑like eyes sewn into her face,
and a porcelain doll's dress dripping with old blood.
She tilts her head slowly…
…too slowly.
Bone cracking sound echoes.
Then she smiles.
A smile that splits her porcelain face from cheek to cheek.
In the softest voice:
"Welcome home, brother."
Her button eyes glimmer.
