Chapter 10 - Son of Time

Inside the collapsing Chrono Nexus, Kaien confronts Revontis — now fully transformed into the Spiral Entity, a monstrosity made of shattered timelines, ticking bones, and unending screams of lost centuries. The Nexus fractals around them, showing infinite versions of the same battle. And in every version… Kaien dies.

But in this one — the final one — Benizame appears. Not as a memory, but as a fading soul. For a moment, the legend and the heir stand together. Father and son of time — not by blood, but by burden. Fighting side by side, they battle Revontis across collapsing realities.

As the fight rages, Benizame transfers the last of his ChronoBlood into Kaien, letting go at last. "You don't need to be me," he says. "Just be… real."

Empowered by his own path, Kaien breaks free of all timelines. He fuses with the Nexus not as its prisoner — but as its Living Flux — a being not bound to protect time, but to let it breathe, grow, and evolve. VyrnFlare transforms into a radiant, shifting blade — half chaos, half clarity.

With a final strike, Kaien unravels Revontis and ends the Spiral's loop.

Benizame's soul smiles… and fades.

Time resets — but not to the past. To something new.

Epilogue: A New Clock Starts

Terra awakens in peace. The Rift is silent. Children tell stories of a boy with stars in his eyes and a sword made of memory.

And far away, the wind whispers:

"Time belongs to those who live it… and we're just getting started."
