Kael vs Elirion – Part 4: The Birth of Dark Dominion
Elirion's body began to fade in Kael's hands. But it wasn't just a being that was fading; a transformation was also taking place. With every passing second, Kael could feel himself more, and with each step, a new layer of his being's power was added. Elirion's final screams were now intertwined with the sorrow of a being completely defeated before him. The darkness, like the moment of victory, surrounded Kael, and the sky slowed the progression of time.
Everything came to a halt for a moment.
At that instant, even the rhythm of Kael's heart changed. He was no longer human. The lord of Hell, beyond every thought, had now established dominion over all beings. The battle was over, but Kael's soul was under the influence of a power that didn't belong to him. He began to feel Elirion's ghost, like a mist, behind the legendary victory at the end of this battle. That ghost, in the dark edges of his cloak, caused a shiver with every movement. But it only saw Kael's victory.
"It's over."
With that single word, a terrible transformation began within Kael. Chains echoed once more in the realm of chaos. Everything was a sign of a new beginning. In Kael's eyes, the old human will had nearly disappeared. In its place, the cold and profound power of the King of Hell now resided. Now, everything was in Kael's hands.
But Kael didn't stop. He was now not just the ruler of victory, but the ruler of eternity. Every power, every light, every darkness, every destruction, every grandeur—it all belonged to him. He thought that even time was limited. Because time could not stand against the power of a god. Time itself had to be recreated. That was why every one of his thoughts had to push the boundaries of time.
At that moment, Kael felt himself even deeper. He wasn't just the victor of the battle anymore; he was the master of Hell, the being who would disrupt the balance of the sky. He closed his eyes, filled with traces of a suppressed longing. Remembering his family, every feeling from the moment he killed Elirion gave him his true power. But this power tore his soul apart once again. Kael could no longer make peace with the darkness within him.
At the end of the battle, after the final blow, a light from the depths of Hell began to shine. This was when the birth of Kael as a dark ruler truly began. Now, he would not only pursue revenge but start a new era as the strongest being in all worlds.
And that light brought with it a new fear in every piece of it. Elirion's corpse was on the verge of becoming a being once more. Kael, the King of Hell, had to own everything. For he, as a being beyond life and death, could command every moment. Within the dark forces, now, there was once again a ruler reborn. The darkness was so deep that it would erase everything from the past, wipe away every mistake.
And then, Kael rose from the depths of Hell.
