The shockwave ripped through Kael's body. Pain surged through his chest and arms, radiating like wildfire. Smoke curled and drifted around the shattered remnants of the battlefield.
Neraxis laughed, blood dripping from his chin.
"Don't die this easily."
Kael's arms regenerated mid-motion as he formed a hand sign. Supreme Expansion of Space…
Neraxis mirrored him, muttering his own expansion.
Kael:"Eclipse of Identity."
Neraxis:"The Fractured Eternity."
The two domains collided violently. Kael stood firm in his barrier-wreathed space, Neraxis towering over the open, limitless expanse of his domain.
Principal's eyes widened, sweat dripping from his temples. Neraxis' domain has no barriers… while Kael's is bound by one… this is dangerous.
Mirror shards erupted from Kael's body, slicing his own barrier as it tried to resist Neraxis' space. Crack! The walls of his domain trembled and collapsed under the assault.
Kael's body was shredded by the relentless shards, blood coating him from head to toe. Yet he pressed forward, activating Reverse Vital Force, stepping through the torrent of slashes as if moving through fire unscathed.
With a burst of strength, he slammed his hand onto the edge of the space itself, sending a shockwave that forced Neraxis to dodge. The mirror shards exploded outward, striking him—but every slash Kael delivered was absorbed by Neraxis, regenerated as if feeding him.
Neraxis laughed like a mad god.
Principal's voice shook. He's in bad condition… Neraxis caught him… this is… insane.
Kozuki Toya's face remained calm, eyes sharp. they don't call him the strongest for nothing.
Yura's fists clenched tightly. Kael… don't give him an inch.
The clash of their supreme expansions rumbled through the city, a war of light and shadow, energy and blood, shaking the very air and earth beneath them.
