Kaito's vision blurred as he fell through the dark void, the cold emptiness pressing in on him from all sides. He could feel the Abyss calling to him, its power growing stronger, wrapping around him like a suffocating blanket.
When he finally landed, he found himself in a strange, shadowy landscape. The ground was soft, like ash, and the sky above was a swirling vortex of darkness. There was no sound, no light—just an endless void.
"Kaito…"
The voice was different now—deeper, more commanding. It echoed all around him, coming from the very heart of the Abyss.
"You are not just a vessel, Kaito. You are part of us."
He clenched his fists, trying to push back against the overwhelming force. "What do you want from me?"
A figure emerged from the shadows—a tall, imposing man with piercing eyes and an aura of pure power. Kaito recognized him immediately.
Seraphina's father.
"You are the key," the demon king said, his voice filled with dark intent. "You will unlock the true power of the Abyss, and with it, we will conquer all realms—demon, mortal, and celestial alike."
Kaito's heart pounded as the weight of the demon king's words settled over him. He wasn't just a pawn in this game—he was central to it. But why? What did the Abyss want from him?
Before he could ask, the ground beneath him trembled, and the shadows around him surged, threatening to swallow him whole.
"Kaito!"
Seraphina's voice echoed from above, faint but growing stronger. She was reaching for him, pulling him back to the surface.
But as the shadows closed in, Kaito realized something. The power of the Abyss wasn't just trying to consume him—it was offering him something. Something that could change everything.
