My Dark Devil System

System Reminder: 647 days remaining until your soul is claimed.

Nightmare Gauge: 90%

SP Total: 270

Current Objective: Defeat The Architect of Broken Systems

The world was gone.

Kael floated inside the Architect's domain—an endless, digital void filled with broken code spiraling like dying stars. Glitching fragments of failed systems orbited the being before him: the Architect, bound in cybernetic chains, with a rusted clock embedded in his chest ticking backwards.

Each tick slowed reality.

Each tock threatened to erase Kael from existence.

[System Notice: All Active Buffs Reduced by 40% while in Architect's Domain]

[Sin Abilities Distorted – Expect Mutation]

Kael's lips curled into a grin.

"Finally, something worthy of the damnation I've earned."

Phase I – Clockwork Tyrant

Architect of Broken Systems

Status: ACTIVE

HP: ∞ (Regenerates unless Core Clock is broken)

Abilities:

– System Rewrite – Alters the effects of Kael's Sin Skills randomly.

– Code Shatter – Deletes chunks of the battlefield.

– Reset Loop – Restarts Kael's last 10 seconds if he lands a fatal blow.

The Architect raised a hand.

The battlefield beneath Kael's feet—what little "ground" existed—fractured into coding language. He barely had time to leap as a data spear shot through where his heart had been.

[Blazing Dominion – MUTATED: Datafire Prison]

Instead of his usual hellflames, Kael's burst ignited in digital fire, trapping both of them in a burning code matrix.

"So you're trying to rewrite me?" Kael laughed. "Let's see what happens when fire corrupts your code."

He launched forward—slicing through reality itself.

Scene – The Clock Bleeds

Kael noticed it: every time he struck the Architect's body, nothing happened. But the clock embedded in its chest? It blinked.

A crack formed at 2 o'clock.

He had a target.

[Hellfire Pulse Lv.2 – Modified]

New Effect: Timeburn – Causes delayed damage to time-bound enemies.

Kael focused his power and punched directly into the clock.

Time stuttered.

A thousand versions of Kael overlapped in one second.

The Architect twitched.

"System error: recursion breach... unhandled exception…"

The voice no longer sounded godlike.

It sounded… panicked.

Phase II – Rewrite Protocol (Triggered at 50% Clock Integrity)

Suddenly, the world inverted.

Kael found himself chained. Not just physically—but emotionally, spiritually.

A vision slammed into him—his past, rewritten.

He was back in the temple.

The High Order had never betrayed him.

His family had never spat on him.

He had never been thrown into the pit.

He was… loved.

"You can go back," a voice whispered, sounding like his mother.

"All you have to do is let go of the Devil System. Wake up. Be normal."

Kael almost fell to his knees.

But then… he remembered her scream.

The fire.

The teeth.

The eyes that watched while he bled out.

[Sin Detection – Override Mode]

Detected Highest Sin in Domain: DECEPTION

Kael's eyes snapped open—burning red.

"Nice try, Architect. But you messed with the wrong sin."

[PRIDE + ENVY FUSION – Sovereign Reflection]

A mirror of burning light formed behind Kael, casting his true self forward like a spear.

The false reality shattered.

Phase III – System Collapse

The Architect screamed—not with voice, but with a crashing sound that sounded like every deleted file in the world.

Chains burst from the void, trying to bind Kael again.

The clock ticked into red.

10% integrity.

[Nightmare Mode III – ABYSSAL SOVEREIGN] – 100% NG

TRANSFORMATION UNLOCKED.

Kael's form exploded.

Gone was the man.

In his place stood a horned demon-god, bathed in shadows that bled stars. His wings unfurled, each feather a burning fragment of wrath. His skin was scorched obsidian, and the sigil of all Seven Sins pulsed on his chest.

He pointed.

"Your time is up."

Kael flew at the Architect faster than time could measure.

His fist became a concept: Rebellion Against Fate.

He punched through the clock.

It shattered.

Time died.

The Architect collapsed.

And in the silence…

Tenn ran to him.

"You're alive?! What the hell was that?!"

Kael just smirked, the fire still smoldering in his hair.

"I rewrote the system."

"Now it's mine."
