The [Fated Cataclysm] orb exploded right in Alex's face, shaking the battlefield with golden flames and sealing the match.
Kaelios, the God of Destiny, lowered his weapons and let out a small chuckle.
"That was better than usual," he admitted, "You actually caught me off guard for a moment."
"A little more, and you might've forced me to use my Forbidden Skill."
Silence followed.
Kaelios frowned.
It was strange: normally, Alex would respond, make a snarky remark, or at least groan in frustration after yet another loss.
But right now, there was nothing.
He tilted his head.
"Human?"
Still no answer.
Kaelios took a step forward, his curiosity growing.
The explosion should have killed Alex, but in this domain, he couldn't truly die.
He'd always come back, over and over again.
So why was there no reaction this time?
Kaelios sighed and turned away, deciding to head back to his structure to rest.
