The Shocking Betrayal

The atmosphere on the battlefield grew even more tense as Kai approached Rono, his steps measured and deliberate. His once-loyal eyes were cold now, void of the warmth he had once shared with Aryan, Selena, and the rest of the Third Alliance. His gaze was fixed on Rono as he stood at the forefront of the Black Tide army.

Behind him, Rono stood tall, his eyes gleaming with anticipation. It seemed as though Kai was confirming his allegiance, the last piece falling into place for the Black Tide's long-awaited strike. The Third Alliance watched from their base, their hearts sinking as they understood what had just transpired. Kai, their comrade, had betrayed them.

Whispers of disbelief spread like wildfire among the Third Alliance members.

"He's... with them now?" Aryan muttered under his breath, his eyes locked onto Kai, who now stood confidently by Rono's side.

Selena's face was a mixture of disbelief and anger. "How could he betray us like this?"

The Third Alliance's headquarters was thrown into chaos as everyone scrambled to make sense of what was happening. But before they could act, something unexpected happened.

A sudden flash of light appeared, and Prince, the once-unknown member with the power of the Ice Dragon Heart, vanished from the HQ.

The Unseen Strike

Prince reappeared, not far from Kai. His figure materialized from the shadows with terrifying precision. In a split second, before Kai could even react, Prince raised his weapon and struck.

Kai's eyes widened in shock as the cold steel of the blade pierced his back. The force of the strike pushed through his armor, sending a shiver of pain through his body. He collapsed forward, gasping for air, completely stunned.

"How…" Kai managed to whisper, his voice a mixture of disbelief and confusion. He never truly understood Prince, never imagined him to be capable of such a sudden and brutal strike. Kai was one of the strongest players in the realm—how could this happen so fast?

The cold presence of the Ice Dragon Heart pulsated around Prince's form, a chilling reminder of the deadly power he now possessed.

Before Kai could recover, Prince spoke, his voice calm and cold, "You always underestimated me, Kai. But you didn't know who you were really dealing with."

Rono's Wrath

Kai fell to his knees, his body trembling from the pain of the wound. He looked back toward Rono, his eyes filled with disbelief. This wasn't supposed to happen. He had prepared for everything, but he had never anticipated this betrayal—his own betrayal.

Rono, furious beyond measure, let out an animalistic growl. His eyes blazed with rage as he saw the injury to his ally, a wound inflicted by none other than Prince, a former unknown member now revealed to be far more dangerous than anyone had imagined.

Rono's voice rang out, filled with fury. "Get him!"

The Black Tide army, at Rono's command, surged forward in a tidal wave of darkness, charging toward Prince with unrelenting force.

But Prince, having just delivered his strike, stood tall, his expression one of defiance. The icy energy around him swirled, growing stronger as the Black Tide closed in.

A Battle Unfolds

In the distance, Aryan and Selena were caught off guard by the sudden explosion of movement. Their eyes widened as they realized the battle had just escalated.

"We can't let him fight alone," Aryan muttered, his Fire Dragon power bubbling to the surface. He was ready to join the fray, ready to back up Prince.

Selena nodded, already preparing her own weapons. "We go in together."
