The forty-seventh night draped Kael El's western plains in shadow, crimson fading to violet as the battlefield—400 km from his major city—groaned under war's weight. The 6,906-square-kilometer empire stood fierce, nineteen territories—forest, plains, mesa, desert, swamp, jungle, tundra, crypt, molten wastes, steel flats, and ash plains—scarred by bone dust. The city's 115 buildings glowed, 1,838,000 subjects fueling 1.45 million warriors against Torva's 200,000 undead. Kael faced Torva at the storm's heart, the Stormforged Blade dripping marrow, EX: Dragonflame Reaver a blazing ember, Stormhide Armor cracked but proud. His flirty smirk shone, a cool dominance radiating as he flexed EX: Ash Dominion, ash swirling—Torva's scythe swung, and Kael burned to end him.
Day 47, night. Torva's crumbling—time to bury him. His dark eyes blazed with unwavering confidence, pride a molten core beneath his chill exterior. One-point-eight million souls, 6,906 sq. km, and a Champion Lord's might—Torva, Level 61, 12,316 stats, faltered—Kael's 9,072 stats and EX: 10,000x Multiplier on skills were his anvil.
The battlefield shrank to a three-kilometer vortex—Torva's 200,000 cloaks and marrow golems clashed with Kael's 1.4 million—bone dust raged, visibility near zero. Drayce's glaives carved, Tora's fists shattered, Veyna's wolves tore—dragons circled, fire dim in white.
Torva snarled, bone armor splintered, green eyes flaring—SSS: Bone Lord surged, three golems rising—his scythe spun, marrow blade slashing—Kael blurred with EX: Stormwing Prime, dodging—earth split, dust choking—EX: Steel Tempest roared, 60,000 damage slashing—Torva parried, bone cracking—scythe countered, grazing Kael's chest—Stormhide Armor held, EX: Nosferatu Prime flared, crimson sealing—Kael grinned, dust streaking.
Golems charged—Drayce's line wavered, claw smashing fifty—glaive split bone, dust spilling—War Surge pushed, 5,000 cloaks down—he bled, roaring. Tora grappled one—fist shattered its spine, dust bursting—another kicked, she rolled—blood dripped, she laughed—two fell, 4,000 scattered. Veyna's arrows pierced—golem core cracked, 6,000 dropped—wolves tore, dust fading—165,000 dead total.
Kael pressed—EX: Volcanic Tsunami surged, lava flooding—10,000 damage melted a golem, dust pouring—Torva's scythe swung, bone clashing—Kael parried with the reaver, sparks flying—Torva pushed, 12,316 stats straining—Kael's arm shook—EX: Vitality Reaper stole 10,000 health—Torva stumbled, scythe dipping—Kael thrust—50,000 damage seared Torva's side, marrow burning—Torva roared, bone storm thickening—golems rallied, claws hammering—5,000 of Kael's fell, dust cloaking.
Torva's eyes blazed—scythe spun, bone hardening—Kael ducked—EX: Thunder Barrage erupted, forty lances blasting—40,000 damage cracked golems, Torva reeling—dust parted—Kael leapt—EX: Glacial Roar slammed, sonic wave—20,000 damage rocked Torva, scythe planting—he coughed dust, knees buckling—Kael slashed—EX: Magma Fury, 50,000 damage—Torva twisted, scythe deflecting—armor blazed, arm bleeding.
Golems lunged—Kael rolled—EX: Seismic Rupture split earth—5,000 damage cracked bone—two toppled, crushing 4,000—Torva charged—scythe met Stormforged Blade, bone clashing steel—Kael's arm strained—Torva's strength surged, dust storm peaking—Kael laughed—EX: Dragonscale Bastion flared, defense spiking—blades locked, sparks raining—golems swung—Kael dodged, ground bursting—EX: Forest Reaper snared Torva, vines piercing—20,000 damage bled marrow—Torva slashed free, scythe slashing—Kael parried, armor denting.
Drayce rallied—glaive tore, 8,000 down—golem claw grazed, blood spraying—he roared. Tora smashed—two golems crumbled, 5,000 fled—fists bled, she grinned. Veyna's wolves flanked—arrows felled, 7,000 dropped—dragons torched—185,000 dead, Torva's tide breaking.
Torva gasped—scythe swung wild—Kael sidestepped—EX: Tempest Maelstrom roared, sandstorm clashing bone—15,000 damage cleared haze—Kael thrust the reaver—Torva blocked, marrow faltering—EX: Ash Reaper spun—50,000 damage slashed Torva's chest, bone gushing—Torva screamed—golems charged—Kael rolled—EX: Volcanic Tsunami melted two, dust flooding—Kael leapt—Stormforged Blade pierced Torva's heart—steel sank, marrow snapping—Torva wheezed, eyes dimming—Kael twisted—dust sprayed, bone fell.
Torva slumped—scythe clattered—SSS: Bone Lord faded—golems shattered, 15,000 cloaks fled—Kael stood, dust-slicked, smirking—war was his.
