Chapter 10 - The Shadow That Swallows the Light

The sky above the Eclipse Realm cracked like glass struck by cosmic power.

Black energy from the Void Sovereign filled the heavens, swirling like an endless storm. The ground trembled as the palace collapsed piece by piece.

Amid the destruction stood Arken.

His body was covered in wounds.His silver armor was cracked in several places.His sword, which once shone brightly, now emitted only a faint glow.

Standing before him was a being nearly impossible to defeat.

The Void Sovereign.

The creature let out a quiet laugh.

"So… this is the hero chosen by the Eclipse?"

With a single step forward, the air itself became heavy.

Arken raised his sword.

But his hand trembled.

Not from fear.

His body had simply reached its limit.

"I'm… not finished yet," Arken muttered.

The Void Sovereign lifted his hand.

Void energy gathered into a massive sphere of black darkness.

"Then… it ends here."

BOOOOOM.

The attack struck Arken directly.

The ground shattered.

Dust and stone burst into the air.

As the smoke slowly cleared, Arken's figure could be seen lying on the ground.

His sword had been thrown several meters away.

He tried to stand.

But his legs failed to support him.

Arken fell to his knees.

The Void Sovereign approached calmly.

"Look at you now," he said coldly."So fragile."

Arken tried to reach for his sword.

But the Void Sovereign stepped on it first.

CRACK.

The blade fractured.

For the first time since the battle began…

Arken could not move.

In the distance, Lunaria witnessed everything.

Her eyes were wide open.

Eclipse Vision shone brilliantly.

She could see the possible future.

And that future made her heart stop for a moment.

Arken… dying.

"No…" she whispered.

Tears began to fall down her cheeks.

The Void Sovereign raised his hand once more.

Void energy gathered for the final strike.

"The end of a legend," he said.

Arken, barely conscious, heard the sound of footsteps.

Lunaria ran toward him.

"ARKEN!"

Arken slightly lifted his head.

Through his blurred vision, he saw the person most important to him.

"Lunaria…?"

The Void Sovereign smiled faintly.

"Ah… the Princess of Eclipse."

The Void energy in his hand grew larger.

If this attack were released…

both of them would be destroyed.

Lunaria grabbed Arken's hand.

Her eyes shone like the moon rising in the darkness.

"Get up, Arken."

Eclipse energy began to tremble around them.

"This fight isn't over yet."

Inside Arken's body, something began to react.

Something that had never awakened before.

A power that could only appear when light and shadow unite.

And the Void Sovereign finally realized something.

"Impossible…"

The sky began to change.

The true Eclipse…had just begin.
