⚡ Legacy of Hero: Radiant SagaChapter 17 – The Wrath of Zeus
The battlefield was silent.
Wounded bodies lay scattered. Smoke drifted like mourning veils through the air.Diana was still unconscious.Lorien, on his knees, eyes filled with tears.And Kai—motionless, his smile gone.
Ray approached slowly.No words.He simply knelt and held the young man's body in his arms.
For a moment, the entire world respected the silence.The sky darkened.No sound—not even the whisper of the wind.
Then, Ray gently laid Kai down on the ground.He stood up.His eyes, once calm like still water, were now stormy and heavy with grief.
Zabadon, mutilated and panting, remained standing.
ZABADON (with a bloodied laugh):— "So the legend finally arrives... Too late."
RAY (coldly):— "You took one of mine."— "It's only fair… I take one of yours."
He drew both of the Rayden Daggers.Around him, the atmosphere trembled.
Storm clouds began to gather above, twisting like mountains in motion.Lightning danced through the sky, crackling with restrained fury.
A massive bolt of lightning crashed beside Ray.When the light faded, he was clad in pure electric armor.Every inch of him vibrated with divine power.
Zabadon took a step back—for the first time, hesitant.
ZABADON:— "DON'T UNDERESTIMATE ME, HUMAN!"
RAY:— "I am more than human."
He raised both daggers to the sky.
RAY (commanding):— "Zeus's Wrath."
A colossal thunder spear began to form above him, piercing the sky,illuminating the city like a second sun.The ground shook.The winds screamed.
Then the spear fell.With perfect precision.With the force to obliterate a continent.
The impact was absolute.
Light devoured everything.Sound vanished.A white flash washed over the world.
When all had settled, a massive, smoldering crater remained.
Zabadon… was still alive.But barely.
Crawling, half his body in ruins, he tried to regenerate using dark matter.Ray walked forward, step by step.Each step echoed with the sound of thunder.
ZABADON (murmuring):— "I-I… still… can…"
RAY (cutting him off):— "We're not done."
He spun the daggers, summoning a silver-blue electric vortex.Energy condensed at his chest.A new spear formed—thin, flawless, pulsing like it had a heartbeat.
RAY (final words):— "Final Thunder Spear!"
The spear pierced Zabadon with divine precision.A scream tore through the sky.
Then... silence.
Zabadon vanished.No explosion. No remains.Only cosmic dust carried by the wind.
The sky began to clear.
Ray deactivated his aura.The field went still.Diana coughed, waking up.Lorien remained kneeling, eyes fixed on the heavens.
LORIEN (in disbelief):— "That guy… is he even human?"
Ray approached.He placed a firm, brotherly hand on Lorien's shoulder.
RAY (solemnly):— "Get up."— "Kai gave his life for you."— "Honor it, Lorien. Move forward. Make it count."
Lorien looked into Ray's face.He took a deep breath.And rose—shaky, but standing.
LORIEN:— "I will… I promise."
