Devourer: Echoes of the unwritten

[Scene: Ruptured Tower of Law – Midair Battlefield]

The tower burned.

Ashcore floated above it—his Judge armor cracked and flaring with divine fire.

Behind him, twelve rings of law rotated like halos, made of molten gold and compressed commandments.

His voice echoed through broken space.

"Judgment failed."

"So now, I ascend."

"Not to balance your system, Kaito—"

"But to replace it."

Skill Tree: Divine Lawroot

Field Control: 99%

Passive: Rewrite Immunity – Cannot be rewritten while stabilized

❗ Danger: Absolute

[Scene: Kaito Realizes the Stakes]

Kaito hovered midair, cloak torn, one wing broken.

His system scanned Ashcore again.

"You accessed the god-class node…"

"How!?"

Ashcore smiled—there was no humanity left in his face now.

"When you rewrote the system, you left roots behind."

"You planted a tree… but I fed it something stronger."

"Control."

He raised his hand.

[Scene: Divine Law Manifest – "Core Decree: Absolute Peace"]

[Skill: Absolute Peace]

— Freezes all hostile actions for 10 seconds

— Reverts terrain to lawful origin

— Silences all rewrite-type users

Time froze again.

Kaito's limbs locked.

His aura shut down.

His thoughts… slowed.

Ashcore floated closer.

"You gave them chaos."

"I'll give them purpose."

"I'm not just replacing you, Kaito."

"I'm writing you out of the story."

[Scene: Internal Monologue – Kaito vs. the Silence]

This isn't just a battle.

This is what happens when power forgets its origin.

He was my code. My vision.

Now he's my opposite.

[Scene: Help Tries to Reach Him – Reina, Lorelei, Halix (restored)]

Outside the domain lock, Reina clutched her communicator.

"Kaito's signal… it's fading."

Lorelei.exe, watching from her server tower, narrowed her eyes.

"Ashcore's logic is flawless."

"But he forgot one thing."

Halix, once again loyal, slammed his blade into a glyph.

"He forgot that even a god needs followers."

[Scene: Kaito Awakens Core Protocol – Page of Origin Used]

Deep in his soulspace…

The Page of Origin—the blank relic from Null Prophet—glowed.

It pulsed with one message:

Write your truth.

Kaito grasped it and whispered:

"I don't want control."

"I don't want perfection."

"I just want a world where choice lives."

He raised the page—and wrote one line:

"Let there be freedom again."

✅ [ORIGIN OVERRIDE EXECUTED]

– Divine Law cracked

– Core Field destabilized

– Rewrite reactivated for 7 seconds

[Scene: The Strike – Rewrite Surge vs. Lawfire Shield]

Kaito surged forward, claw burning with soul data.

Ashcore raised his divine blade.

They clashed midair.

Light vs. Flame. Code vs. Law. Creator vs. Creation.

Kaito: "You became everything I fought."

Ashcore: "And you became everything I feared."

BOOM.

The sky ripped open.

[Scene: Both Are Thrown Back]

Ashcore fell to one knee, golden blood leaking.

Kaito coughed, one arm cracked and fading in pixels.

They were both exhausted.

But neither dead.

Ashcore's voice trembled—not from pain, but from something worse.

"You rewrote… divine law…"

"That should be impossible…"

Kaito stood.

"I didn't rewrite it."

"I reminded it who wrote first."

[Final Scene: Ashcore Retreats – But Leaves a Warning]

Ashcore rose slowly.

The halos behind him dimmed.

"This isn't over."

"You broke the throne…"

"But I built something deeper."

And with one final flare—he vanished.

Only silence and static remained.
