When Tyler's eyes turned white, the entire world around him dissolved into a blinding void.
A strange sensation welled up from deep within his soul—an ancient voice, neither male nor female, whispered in his mind:
"Break free... Collapse the world. Sever the chains..."
But Tyler didn't act on it.
Not yet.
Instead, he raised his hand and whispered, "Chess Domain."
In an instant, the battlefield was swallowed by a massive checkerboard of alternating red and white squares. The very fabric of space groaned as Tyler's domain overlaid reality, challenging the existing rules. The shrine in the distance remained untouched, a silent observer amid chaos.
The white glow in Tyler's eyes faded as the domain fully activated.
He now hovered mid-air, face calm and focused.
"I should change the name later. The name 'Chess Domain' seems lame.." He muttered.
