Chapter 14 - Chapter 14: The Forgotten Flame

("I need someone worthy of me.")

​🌆 Scene: The Silent City – After the Massacre

​Adheera walks calmly through the desolate streets. A heavy, deathly silence hangs over the city. 😶🌫️

Suddenly… he feels a strange, powerful vibration behind him.

​A blue lightning streak tears through the air at impossible speed! ⚡

It's Jinwoo—making a high-speed, explosive entry! 💥

​⚡ Scene: The Instant Clash

​Adheera senses the rush instantly. Without even turning his head fully, he reacts—snap! He catches Jinwoo by the neck mid-dash! 🤯

The momentum stops instantly.

Jinwoo is frozen in his grip… but his expression remains eerily calm.

​🗣 Jinwoo (Speaking calmly despite the chokehold):

​"Interesting… I am Jinwoo.

You actually reacted to my speed."

​"But how? How did you sense my reflex and catch me by the neck so effortlessly?" 😳

​"How? I thought no one could match my speed or my reflexes.

But you…"

​"What happened to this city?

It's filled with bodies and blood… why is it like this?"

​😈 Adheera Speaks:

​"Little boy… I am Adheera.

An entity that existed 5,000 years ago.

I was sealed for five millennia…

And now, I am unsealed."

​"I killed these soldiers.

None of them were worthy.

Weak souls don't deserve to remain alive."

​"You look like just another college kid.

I'm not interested in killing you…

Get lost, little boy, Jinwoo."

​(Adheera releases his grip and shoves him aside…)

​🧘 Jinwoo slowly steps back… his face remains cold and composed.

​"So, you are Adheera?"

"I have one question for you…"

"Did you brutally attack a girl on the street recently?"

​💢 Adheera – In a casual, indifferent tone:

​"Yes. A noisy girl.

I told her to 'Stop'… but she didn't listen.

In my annoyance, I grabbed her by the neck and hurled her into a store."

​"The store was called… The Prithvi Books & Coffee.

If she's still alive, it's a surprise.

No one usually survives a hit from me."

​🔥 Jinwoo's eyes slowly turn a deep, glowing red…

​"That girl… Prithvi.

She is the woman I love." 💔

​💥 The Sudden Beast Kick!

​Without a word, Jinwoo unleashes a devastating kick to Adheera's chest!

The force is so immense that Adheera is sent flying back several steps! 🔥

​😮 Adheera laughs, tasting the thrill of pain:

​"Ahh… finally…

That kick… it actually stung a little."

"Still… if you want to kill me, you have a long way to grow."

​"The moment you approached me at the start…

There was a mysterious aura in your speed…"

​"Tell me… who are you really, little boy?"

​🔚 Final Frame – Foggy Street

​Adheera stands firm, staring directly into Jinwoo's glowing red eyes, waiting for an answer…
