The morning air was thick with tension as Raizo Hazan stood before his two students, Izuki Raiken and Kenzo Tenzir. Today was different from all the other days of training. Today, they would learn true power.


    "You both have trained tirelessly, but against Shinsei, your current strength is worthless," Raizo said, his piercing gaze scanning his students. "Now, I will teach you real techniques—ones that will decide whether you live or die."


    Izuki clenched his fists in anticipation. Kenzo nodded, his usual smirk replaced with a serious expression.

    The First Lesson: Breaking Human Limits


    Raizo stepped forward, raising his hand. The air around him warped, as if reality itself bent to his will.


    "This is called Celestial Flow—the ability to manipulate the flow of energy within your body, enhancing your speed, strength, and perception beyond normal limits."


    Suddenly, Raizo vanished. In the blink of an eye, he reappeared behind them, then in front, then above. The movements were so fast that Izuki’s eyes couldn’t follow.


    "With this, you won’t just be faster. You will see the world in slow motion while your enemies struggle to react."

    Izuki’s heart pounded. "Teach me!"


    Raizo smirked. "Very well. But your bodies will break before they adapt."


    Without warning, he unleashed a wave of pressure, sending both Izuki and Kenzo crashing into the ground. Their limbs trembled as they struggled to stand.


    "The first step to unlocking Celestial Flow is to withstand this force. If your bodies can’t handle this, you’re not ready."


    For the next three days, Izuki and Kenzo endured relentless strain, their muscles screaming in pain. But they refused to give up. On the fourth day, something changed.


    As the pressure bore down on them, Izuki’s body felt lighter. His breath steadied. His vision sharpened. He looked at Kenzo and saw it in his eyes—he felt it too.


    "Good," Raizo said. "Now, you are ready for real combat."

    Meanwhile: Shinsei’s Unmatched Power


    Deep within the lair of Shinsei, their leader stood before his elite warriors.


    "Our enemies are growing stronger," he said, his voice echoing through the dark chamber. "But it does not matter. Strength means nothing before absolute power."


    He raised his hand, and the air shattered like glass. The space around him twisted and distorted before reforming, as if reality itself had bent to his will.


    One of his commanders stepped forward, bowing. "Master, shall we eliminate Raizo and his students now?"


    The leader smirked. "No. We will let them believe they have hope. Then, when they think they are ready… we will erase them from existence."
