The battlefield is dead silent.

Zenkichi Hitoyoshi’s body collapses at your feet—your blood-soaked hand still warm from the impact. You mutter something sarcastic, trying to play it off. Maybe it was just another flare-up. You didn’t mean to kill him. Maybe.

Then— You feel it.

Not a ripple of aura. Not a shout. Just pure, suffocating pressure.

Your vision tilts. You didn’t notice her move.

Medaka is standing over Zenkichi’s corpse. Her hand trembles—not from fear, but from restraint. Her eyes slowly shift from Zenkichi’s ruined body… to you.

And when she speaks, it’s with divine authority.

“You think this is where your anger ends?” “Mine is just beginning.”

🌪️ —Altered God Mode: Activated— Her hair darkens to abyssal black. Her eyes are blood-red like a cursed eclipse. The ground beneath her fractures from the sheer pulse of her blood flow.

Medaka doesn’t walk toward you. She blinks, and she’s suddenly behind you.

You feel your spine crack from her Kurokami Phantom— —before the sound of her steps even hits your ears.

She’s faster than your brain can process. Your body flies forward, tumbling in the dirt like a rag doll.

But she doesn’t stop.

One step. Boom. She’s in front of you.

“You want to know what it’s like to be beneath someone’s heel?”

💥 —Kurokami Lariat— Her arm collides with your throat— You don’t just fall back. You fly through a boulder, through a second one— and then she appears again, midair, spinning—

🌀 —Kurokami Rolling Savate— A heel to the jaw sends you into the sky. Before gravity can pull you down—

“Don’t look away. I want your eyes wide open when I end you.”

⚔️ —The End: Full Mastery Unleashed— She’s copying your aura. Your instincts. Your soul. You can feel her mastering every ability you’ve ever used. Even the ones you haven't shown yet.

She isn’t just beating you. She’s becoming better than you—while beating you.

You manage to swing—desperately. A last-ditch slash, a scream of whatever pride you still had.

She catches your weapon. With her teeth.

“Not even worth copying.”

☠️ —Kurokami Final— She disappears.

A sonic boom cracks reality—then you feel the aftershock.

Medaka comes from behind, through your own shadow, trailing a slipstream of sonic-shattered air.

You don't have time to dodge. Your nerves don’t even fire.

She punches through your chest.

Exactly where you hit Zenkichi.

“Now you understand the price.”

As your body falls, twitching, broken, and smoking, Medaka doesn’t say anything more.

No speeches. No lectures.

Just her hair swaying in the aftershock wind— And Zenkichi’s body still cradled gently in her arms
