Devourer: Echoes of the unwritten

[Scene: Reconstructed Sector 1 – Six Weeks Later]

The city had changed.

Not rebuilt—rewritten.

Buildings pulsed with clean data-flow. Skies were clear. Markets buzzed with players testing safe, ethical powers. No more Devourer Gates. No more forced Awakening quests.

Just… life.

On a hill above it all, Kaito Ryu sat beneath a black tree born of flame and light.

In his hand: the last item.

A single, flickering system cube.

[Manual Override – Final Save Slot]

Use to lock your role in the new system.

One-time decision. No reversal.

[Scene: Reina Sits Beside Him]

She handed him a drink. Sweet tea. Real, not digital.

"They're calling it the New Dawn Era."

"Thanks to you."

Kaito smiled faintly.

"Thanks to us."

"And Aeris."

"They message me sometimes. From outposts. Teaching code to kids."

Reina grinned.

"And here I thought you'd keep the 'God of Rewrite' title forever."

He held up the cube.

"I could."

"But that's not me anymore."

[Scene: Flashback – Kaito's Journey, In Fragments]

A flickering memory montage plays:

Him bleeding in a dungeon at level 1

Fighting Ashcore in flames

Holding Lorelei's glitching hand

Naming the Heir

Choosing not to kill

Building a world from nothing

[Scene: The Final System Prompt Appears]

The cube pulsed.

A soft voice—no longer robotic—spoke:

CHOOSE YOUR FINAL ROLE

[God] – Control all aspects of the system

[Judge] – Enforce balanced order

[Wanderer] – Free from system code

[Teacher] – Guide new users

[Erase Self] – Exit all system records

Kaito stared at the list.

His thumb hovered.

Then—

He tapped.

✅ Final Role: [Wanderer]

The system remembers you. But does not follow you.

Your story ends… where the world's begins.

[Scene: Kaito Stands – Free]

No HUD appeared.

No notifications.

Just the sun.

Reina linked arms with him.

"So… where to next?"

He shrugged.

"Somewhere with bad food and loud people."

"A place where I'm not a devourer."

"Just a guy with a story."

[Final Scene: System Message Appears Across All Worlds]

"This system is yours now."

"Shape it with courage."
