The sky cracked open like shattered glass, celestial light spilling onto the battlefield.
A presence descended.
Not just any god—the Supreme Radiant One, the patron deity of the Sun-Blade Dominion.
[System Alert: Divine Manifestation Detected]

Xel'Varyn felt it immediately.
The weight of the divine. The crushing pressure of an entity beyond mortal comprehension.
Vaelric stood once more.
His wounds were gone. His faith, renewed. His golden armor burned with celestial flames, his sword now a beacon of pure destruction.
This was no longer a duel.
This was divine punishment.

The Eclipse Queen vs. a God
"Xel'Varyn, Eclipse Queen."
Sol'Rath's voice shook the heavens, filled with both anger and disappointment.
"You have walked too far into the abyss. You will be unmade."
The god raised a burning hand. The sky itself became a weapon.
Sunfire rained down.
Each drop carried the power of an exploding star.
Xel'Varyn grinned.
This was the moment she had been waiting for.
Her three arms moved simultaneously.
One hand carved abyssal runes into the air.
The second unleashed a counterforce of pure shadow.
The third gripped her glaive, bracing for impact.
The first wave of divine fire struck.
And then—
The battlefield erupted.

The battlefield became a storm of destruction.
For every divine strike Sol'Rath unleashed, Xel'Varyn returned it with abyssal force.
For every star that fell, she devoured its light.
For every sunfire explosion, she unleashed void ruptures.
The very laws of reality twisted in their conflict.
But Xel'Varyn knew—
She could not fight a god forever.
She needed more power.
She needed to become something beyond mortal.
And she had already prepared for this moment.

And activated the forbidden evolution.

System corruption… rising…
---
Her body twisted, shifting beyond mortal constraints.
Her three arms expanded into six, each wreathed in abyssal power.
Her eyes burned with an inverted sun, the light of destruction itself.
Her Qi signature changed.
No longer just an Eclipse Queen.
Now—
A Godslayer.

"Your turn."
