No sound.
No movement.
No breath.
Kai stood there—
frozen.
The spear… had gone through her.
Nyari's body trembled—
then went still.
"…No."
Kai's voice cracked.
Not angry.
Not loud.
Just… broken.
"No… no… no…"
Jinwi didn't speak.
For once—
even he had nothing to say.
The Light God lowered its hand.
"It is done."
Kai didn't move.
Didn't blink.
Didn't breathe.
Then slowly—
he walked forward.
Each step… heavier than the last.
Nyari fell—
but Kai caught her.
Too late.
Her body was cold.
"Kai…"
Her voice was barely there.
"I'm… sorry…"
Kai's hands shook.
"…Why are you apologizing…?"
Nyari tried to smile.
"I think… I lost…"
Kai's vision blurred.
"No."
"You didn't lose."
"…I did."
Silence.
A single tear fell.
Kai's grip tightened.
"Stay with me."
Nyari's eyes faded.
"…Kai…"
"…don't break…"
Too late.
Jinwi felt it.
That shift.
That collapse.
That point of no return.
"Kai…"
No answer.
"Kai… look at me."
Nothing.
Kai slowly lowered his head.
His voice came out… empty:
"…You said… I could win."
Jinwi stayed silent.
"…You said I could protect her."
Still nothing.
"…So why is she dying?"
The air… warped.
The ground… cracked.
Reality itself… bent.
Jinwi whispered:
"…this is bad."
Kai lifted his head.
His eyes—
completely black.
No human left.
No hesitation.
No balance.
Only one thing remained:
Destruction.
The Light God stepped back.
"You… lost control."
Kai answered:
"No."
"…I lost her."
And then—
he moved.
Faster than before.
Stronger than before.
Colder than anything before.
Jinwi didn't stop him this time.
Because he understood:
This wasn't a fight anymore.
This was a massacre.
