Chapter 65: The Resolute Wrath

The battlefield quaked as Seraphine charged her ki to the maximum, her energy crackling with intensity. Kai, peering through his scouter, read the power level of his rival and couldn't conceal his astonishment. Her power level had skyrocketed to a staggering 90,000, a level of strength that left him in awe.

Seraphine's fierce gaze swept across the battlefield as she began her speech. "Malgarius, I remember Kuruyami every day—the day you killed Zenithar and seized the Void Key. You had the opportunity to end us, but you let us live. That was your gravest mistake. I trained every day, simulating ways to end your wretched existence. Today, Malgarius, you will die by my hand."

Kai and Selena exchanged shocked glances as they listened to Seraphine's chilling words. They had seen her determination grow over the past year, but the depth of her grudge against Malgarius was beyond anything they had anticipated. With their hands on their scabbards, they prepared for battle, but Seraphine, her eyes ablaze with vengeance, raised a hand to stop them.

"Don't you dare," Seraphine's voice was fierce and unyielding. "He is my prey."

Selena's stern expression softened as she addressed her subordinate. "Seraphine, remember that I am still your commander."

In that moment, Seraphine's resolve shone through. "Then, Commander Selena, remember that I can always quit being a Galactic Patrol officer."

Selena was taken aback, her loyalty to her duty and her respect for Seraphine clashing. She hesitated for a moment before finally nodding. "Very well, Seraphine. I leave it to you."

Meanwhile, Kai, his heart heavy with dread, made his way toward his father, Takeshi. His attempts to wake Takeshi were met with silence. Panic clawed at his chest as he realized the truth—he had lost his father. He cried out in despair, tears streaming down his face. "Father! Father, wake up! We need to fight together! Please, don't leave me alone!"

As Kai grieved for his father, Seraphine's anger intensified. Malgarius, sensing the rising tension, shifted into a fighting stance. He announced his intentions with a wicked grin. "Slaughter."

Seraphine, Lyra, Selena, Ryker, and Kai all echoed the word, their voices brimming with anger and determination. "Malgarius, you will die!"

The battlefield was a stage of confrontation, where destiny hung in the balance, and the shadows of vengeance loomed. As they charged towards their nemesis, ready to settle the score once and for all, the chapter came to a riveting close.
