"Insolent!"
BOOOOOOOM!
The entire world seemed to split apart under that furious roar. Blinding light flooded the heavens, and even space itself looked as if it had cracked under unbearable pressure. For a brief moment, everything slowed. Sound faded, movement stalled, and existence itself felt suspended between destruction and silence.
High above the sky, several radiant points of light appeared.
They flickered once.
Then terrifying pressure descended upon the world.
The air became heavy. Mountains trembled. Oceans far away surged violently. Even those thousands of kilometers away felt their knees weaken without understanding why.
Despite reaching the peak of the Demi-God realm, Kael felt his body tremble uncontrollably. His back bent slightly under the crushing divine authority, and a deep groan escaped his throat as invisible force pressed down on him.
The Gods had not come personally.
But they had sent their power.
