The world was already teetering on the edge of chaos, but now, the storm Darius had summoned was beginning to consume everything. His dominion stretched across both reality and the digital realm, blurring the boundaries between the two. His influence spread like a virus, infecting networks, minds, and even the very fabric of existence.
With the Architect's influence momentarily weakened, Darius capitalized on the moment to push his power to new heights. He reached deeper into the system, manipulating not just code but the very essence of consciousness itself. His presence was no longer confined to the game—he could feel it, the pulse of real-world networks bending to his will.
