Nyx’s expression twisted into something unreadable—part rage, part intrigue.

The abyss trembled.

Shadowy wings erupted from her back, stretching beyond the horizon. The entire realm twisted under her power, the very fabric of space distorting.

Ren’s smirk faltered.

[New Title Unlocked: Monarch Slayer.]

A voice echoed from the depths of the void—ancient, ominous, undeniable.

[The Abyss Shatters.]

Then—

Everything exploded.
