The battlefield was in ruins. Smoke and dust filled the air, and the once-thriving city of Tokyo had been reduced to a graveyard of destruction.
Raizo, bloodied and weak, knelt on the shattered ground, barely able to move.
Ryuketsu stood over him, his crimson eyes burning with victory.
"This is it, Raizo. The age of magicians… ends today."
He lifted his hand, preparing to strike the final blow—the attack that would finally erase Raizo from existence.

A SHOCKING TRUTH
Just as he was about to end Raizo’s life, a sudden realization struck Ryuketsu like lightning.
He paused, his fingers mere inches from Raizo’s chest.
Something wasn’t right.
His mind raced, calculating every possibility.
And then it hit him.
If Raizo were to die here…
His power wouldn’t vanish.
No—it would ascend beyond death.

Like a cosmic cycle, his power would drift into space… and in 100 years, it would reincarnate into a new warrior.
Someone even stronger than Raizo.
Someone Ryuketsu might never be able to defeat.
His fingers trembled.
For the first time, Ryuketsu hesitated.
Killing Raizo was no longer an option.
He needed to ensure that Raizo’s power could never escape.
A new plan began to form in his mind—something far worse than death.
----------------------------------------
THE RETURN TO JAILEN
Ryuketsu stepped back, lowering his hand.
Raizo, struggling to stay conscious, narrowed his eyes.
"What… are you waiting for? Finish it."
But Ryuketsu simply smirked.
"Oh, I have something far better planned for you."
With a snap of his fingers, a massive black portal opened beneath Raizo.
The gates of Jailen—the unbreakable prison beyond time and space.
Dark chains erupted from the void, wrapping around Raizo’s body, dragging him into the abyss.
"NO—!" Raizo roared, thrashing against the chains, but his strength was gone.
Ryuketsu leaned forward, whispering his final words before Raizo was sealed away.
"You will never see the light of day again."
And with that, Raizo was pulled into eternal imprisonment.
The portal snapped shut.
Silence filled the battlefield.
Ryuketsu turned away, satisfied.
"Now… the true reign of darkness begins."
----------------------------------------
THE FUTURE OF THE UNIVERSE
With Raizo sealed in Jailen, the world was left defenseless.
Ryuketsu's next move?
To spread his darkness across every realm—to corrupt everything in existence.
But somewhere, in the endless reaches of space…
A small spark of Raizo’s power drifted, hidden from Ryuketsu’s eyes.
A power that would one day… awaken again.
