⚔️ EPISODE 70 — The Eyes That Judge
🎭 Subtitle: "The Silent Ones Strike Back"
---
🎬 SCENE 1: Dimensional Observation Room — Forgotten Quarters
📍 A dark room in stationary orbit above the Kaïnos arena. Only the legendary elders of the school have access to it.
Kairos, Champlain Iᵉʳ, Bella Zena, Jackson Nectar, Martine Pedro, Oscar Venas, and Blaze Eddy are gathered around an old stellar projector.
💬 Kairos:
"The Judge has returned. But his rhythm no longer follows the laws of the tournament. He is accelerating oblivion."
💬 Martine Pedro (calmly, arms crossed):
"He no longer judges the fights... He judges souls."
💬 Blaze Eddy:
"We need a mental strike, surgical, outside the official circuit."
> Champlain pulls out an ancient seal.
A living map of Eden-Ultima's cerebral Nexus opens in the air.
🎯 Plan: Create a temporal breach between fights to infiltrate the Judge's Brain-Eye.
---
🎬 SCENE 2: In parallel — The arena continues
💥 The tournament is not suspended. The spectators are agitated.
Two new combatants enter the arena:
Torën the Binary Magnetist
Falma, the Trace Guard of the Ash Tree
They begin to fight from a distance, each using gravimagnetic flails, while the elders take advantage of the distraction.
But above the sky... a giant eye reopens.
The Silent Judge watches silently from the fractal space.
💬 Voice in the heads of the chosen ones:
> "This tournament no longer needs a winner. It needs... sacrifices."
---
🎬 SCENE 3: Infiltration — The Astral Glass Door
Champlain Iᵉʳ, Kairos, Blaze, Bella, and Oscar break into the ancient Astral Glass Door, connected to the Judge's Primary Nerve.
Space becomes blurred. They walk through corridors of distorted time. Each corridor reflects one of their lost memories.
Obstacle: The Mirror of Verdict — each elder must face a cursed reflection of themselves.
Kairos fights a version of himself who has never known peace.
Bella faces her double filled with romantic hatred.
Blaze faces a fire that refuses to die.
Oscar faces emptiness.
Champlain Iᵉʳ remains alone... and faces a version of Kairos whom he would have betrayed.
💢 Each duel is intense, short, brutal. It is not about winning, but about staying on your feet.
---
🎬 SCENE 4: The Judge's Brain-Eye
At the heart of the floating Nexus: a black eye, surrounded by a thousand luminous veins.
💬 Oscar Venas:
"It's not an organ. It's a memory of the original world."
They deposit a memory blade, activated by the seven forbidden techniques fused together (reactivated with the memories of the Fragment of Nothingness).
> 💥 An internal explosion breaks the surveillance loop.
🎯 The Judge is temporarily weakened. His influence diminishes.
---
🎬 SCENE 5: End of mission — silent return
The elders return to the tournament corridors.
No one has seen them.
But in the sky, the Judge's eye bleeds... then closes.
💬 Kairos (in a low voice):
"We may have just lost... the right to be spectators."
