The sky trembled as the battle resumed.
Far above the valley, Kael hovered in the air, surrounded by the blazing golden aura of the awakened True Alpha. The power radiating from him felt ancient and unstoppable, like the strength of every Alpha that had ruled before him.
Across from him, Dravoryx snarled with burning hatred.
The Devourer’s massive wings stretched wide as dark flames surged across his body again. His crimson aura twisted violently around him like a raging storm.
“You think this new power will save you?” Dravoryx roared.
His voice echoed across the clouds.
“I will tear it from your bones!”
With a furious roar, the Devourer rushed forward again.
The sky exploded as the two titans collided.
BOOOOOOM!
Golden energy and crimson darkness crashed together in a violent storm of power. Lightning flashed wildly around them as their claws clashed again and again.
Shockwaves rolled across the heavens with every strike.
But this time—
Kael was not being pushed back.
The True Alpha power flowing through him allowed him to match Dravoryx’s strength blow for blow.
CRASH!
Another clash sent waves of energy rippling through the clouds.
Dravoryx growled in frustration.
“You should be broken by now!”
Kael’s golden eyes burned with steady determination.
“You talk too much.”
He moved again with incredible speed.
Golden claws flashed through the air and struck Dravoryx across the chest.
CRAAAASH!
The Devourer roared as he was knocked backward once more.
But while the battle raged between them—
Another power was quietly awakening.
Aria hovered nearby, watching the fight with focused eyes.
Her silver aura glowed softly around her body.
But deep inside, she could feel something stirring.
Something ancient.
The crescent mark on her skin began glowing brighter.
A gentle light surrounded her.
At first it felt warm.
Comforting.
Then suddenly—
The moonlight pouring from her body intensified.
Silver energy expanded outward like a rising tide.
Aria gasped softly.
“The Moon…”
The same ancient voice she had heard before echoed once more inside her mind.
Soft.
Calm.
Eternal.
“Child of the Moon… your bond is complete.”
Aria’s breathing slowed.
Her silver eyes began glowing brighter than ever before.
The power inside her grew stronger with every passing second.
“The Alpha has awakened,” the voice continued.
“Now the Moon answers.”
Moonlight burst outward from Aria’s body like a shining star.
The clouds around her glowed with brilliant silver light.
Even the battlefield far below became illuminated by her rising power.
Kael felt it immediately.
He turned his head slightly, sensing the sudden surge of energy.
His eyes widened slightly.
“Aria…”
Dravoryx noticed it too.
And for the first time since the battle began—
The Devourer looked truly alarmed.
“No…”
He shook his head violently.
“That power… it cannot be!”
Aria slowly opened her glowing silver eyes.
Moonlight flowed around her like living energy.
Her voice was calm.
But filled with quiet authority.
“The Moon does not abandon its chosen.”
The crescent mark on her skin shone like a star.
Silver light formed delicate patterns across her arms, glowing like ancient runes.
Her power had evolved.
She was no longer just a wielder of moonlight.
She had become something greater.
Dravoryx snarled angrily.
“Two awakened powers?!”
Kael slowly floated beside Aria again.
Golden and silver energy intertwined around them.
Perfect balance.
The True Alpha.
And the Moon’s Chosen.
Together.
Dravoryx’s crimson aura flared violently.
“Then I will destroy both of you!”
He lunged forward in a final furious attack.
But this time—
Kael and Aria moved together.
Their powers combined again.
Golden and silver light exploded across the sky.
And the final phase of the battle had truly begun.
