Chapter 84: The Birth of a New Bloodline

The Grand Arena was unrecognizable.

The stone floors were torn apart, the banners burned, the grandstands collapsed into rubble.

At the center of it all,

the Worldbreaker Beast towered.

Its body writhed with corrupted Sovereign Energy —

its roar shattered the very air.

Every heartbeat pulsed with death.

It was a creature born to end empires.

It had ended them before.

It would end them again.

Or so it thought.

Kaelen's Stand

Kaelen Drayce stood facing the Beast —

cloak torn, Sovereignblade Astryn gleaming with untamed light.

The Sovereign System roared inside his mind,

blending perfectly with the heartbeat of the world around him.

Behind him stood his family and companions —

battered, bloodied, unbowed.

Riven grinned fiercely, fire blazing around him.

Mira moved like a ghost, blades humming with lethal certainty.

Selina shone like a second sun, mending wounds even as she fought.

Lyanna's spirit runes flared wildly, forging new barriers on instinct alone.

Eren roared with juggernaut fury, swinging his warhammer with impossible strength.

Damon held broken pillars on his back, protecting the wounded.

Lyra soared like a Sovereign falcon, raining lightning with every breath.

And at the edges of the collapsing Arena,

Aria, Seren, Vaelen, and the newly loyal First Crown elites fought tooth and nail to shield fleeing civilians.

It was not a battle.

It was a stand.

A declaration.

The old world could break itself against them.

They would not fall.

The Final Clash

The Worldbreaker Beast charged.

The ground trembled.

Stone shattered.

Magic wards exploded.

Kaelen raised Astryn.

For a single breath,

the world paused.

Every eye turned toward him —

enemy, ally, mortal, Sovereign alike.

And then he moved.

A swing of Astryn.

Not desperate.

Not wild.

A single, perfect, Sovereign strike.

It carved through the air like a star tearing through darkness.

The Beast roared —

but the roar turned into a shriek.

Because the strike was not aimed at flesh.

It was aimed at Will.

At existence itself.

The Beast's body twisted violently —

its corrupted Sovereign Core exposed for a heartbeat.

Kaelen stepped forward, Sovereignblade flashing.

And plunged Astryn straight into the Core.

The End

The Worldbreaker Beast screamed —

a sound that tore through reality itself.

Its massive body convulsed, crumbling from the inside out.

Black Sovereign Energy exploded outward.

But Kaelen raised his free hand,

and the Sovereign Will gathered by Heartland — by his companions —

formed an unbreakable shield.

Together,

they stood.

Together,

they endured.

And the Worldbreaker died.

The Awakening

Silence fell.

And then —

the Sovereign System shattered through Kaelen's mind.

Kaelen's Body Changes

Power rushed through Kaelen's veins —

clean, pure, endless.

His muscles hardened without bulking.

His Sovereign Aura deepened until even stone cracked beneath his footsteps.

His blood burned with ancient golden light, threads of silver weaving through it.

His hair, already long and dark, shimmered faintly with starlight.

His eyes, once silver-blue, now gleamed with the depth of worlds unborn.

He was no longer a Sovereign-Lord.

He was a Founder.

A Worldforger.

A Dreamer given flesh and power enough to change the heavens themselves.

The First Gifting

Kaelen turned slowly, breathing in the new strength,

and gazed at those who stood with him —

family, friends, future Sovereigns.

The System offered him the choice now:

[Bloodline Gifting Eligible.]

[Would you like to mark companions and family with the Eternal Sovereign Bloodline Fragment?]

[Recipients will begin slow ascension toward immortality and Sovereign Apex potential.]

Kaelen smiled quietly.

He had never planned to walk alone.

Not at the beginning.

Not at the end.

"Yes," he said softly.

And the world shifted once more.

The Gifting Begins

Golden threads of Sovereign Energy flowed outward from Kaelen,

wrapping around Mira, Riven, Selina, Lyanna, Damon, Eren, Lyra.

Even Aria —

fighting fiercely across the battlefield —

felt the touch of it.

A whisper of Sovereign Will.

A promise of eternity.

One by one, the golden light sank into their bones,

their blood,

their spirits.

Marking them.

Changing them.

Forever.

They would not be mere followers.

They would not be forgotten.

They would rise with him.
