The energy from the clash between Fitran and Thor had not yet subsided when the air of Stones suddenly turned wet and salty. A strong gust of wind carried the scent of sea salt, reminding everyone present of the ocean's unpredictable power. The dark sky turned a deep blue, and the roots of Genesis twisted in waves that crept from all directions. Amidst the lingering tension, Fitran's heart raced, feeling the magical vibrations flowing around him, as if the world wanted to tell him something important.

  Poseidon, the queen of the Omega ocean, stood atop a massive whirlpool, her trident radiating a bluish-green light that pierced through the fog.

  With a single motion, Poseidon plunged her trident into the ground. The thunderous roar of the waves shattered the silence, shaking the foundations of Stones and causing several warriors to stagger. An existential ocean flowed from the cracks, swallowing the battlefield of Stones and creating a new ocean that had never existed before—here, the laws of magic and reality became fluid. As if sensing a profound change, Fitran's body was drenched in cold sweat, struggling to maintain his emotional balance amidst the chaos. The clouds transformed into flying fish, shadows became currents, and the space around Fitran curved, as if the ocean could drown any existence. Each heartbeat resonated in sync with the pulse of magical power enveloping the air, creating an extraordinary sensation—and fear—within him.

  Poseidon waved with her left hand, and from the darkness of the water emerged giant monsters:

  Leviathan Abyssal — a sea serpent with a thousand eyes, its scales shimmering like obsidian, writhing around Genesis.

  Kraken of the Forgotten — a colossal octopus, each tentacle adorned with ancient runes, its voice shaking the ground and souls.

  Sirens of Void — spirits of the ocean, taking the form of blue mist, their song hypnotizing anyone who hears it.

  “Under my power, even your memories will drown, Monarch,” Poseidon's voice boomed like a storm, “this is not ordinary water—this is an ocean that dissolves meaning, names, and history.”

  Amidst the roar, water surged toward Poseidon, sparkling in the dim light, highlighting the sharpness of her authoritative face. As she moved her fingers, a gust of wind carrying the scent of salt and mystery swept through. Genesis furrowed her brow, her body responding reflexively, feeling the tension creeping slowly from her fingertips to her spine.

  Every second passed like a vibration in the air, and Genesis could sense the acidity of lost purity, like beads of water slipping from her palms, seeping into her soul. Panic crept into her heart, yet she stood firm, fighting to remain steadfast against the disturbances threatening her sanity.

  Fitran stepped onto the impossibly solid yet fluid surface of the water, both of his swords still glowing from the previous duel. He closed his eyes, taking a deep breath, savoring the salty aroma of the sea mixed with the tension hanging in the air. When he opened his eyes, his gaze was filled with tranquility, as if he had merged with the shadow of the dark sky.

  “I have crossed thousands of rivers of wounds, Poseidon. I will not drown in the waves of others' destinies,” he said in a calm yet confident voice, as if defying the wind that sought to shake his spirit.

  With the “Abyssal Spiral Step” technique, Fitran soared above the water, his speed and agility causing splashes to form a shimmering path. He dodged the Kraken's swiftly lunging tentacles, feeling the cool breeze caress his face, while laser-like strikes from Leviathan stung around him like lightning. He spun Excalibur, the sword's light sparkling like stars in the dark night, invoking the magic of “Genesis Tidal Veil”—a sacred water shield that emerged with a thunderous sound, reflecting the attacks of the sea monsters with a loud crash. The existential waves broke around him, like an invisible shield repelling threats, preventing the darkness from swallowing his soul.

  Poseidon raised her trident, her movements graceful yet threatening, summoning the “Eternal Maelstrom”—a massive whirlpool that was not just water, but a spinner of fate and meaning. The water spun rapidly, forming a terrifying tornado, drawing everything within to be forgotten by the world with a rumbling sound that shook the ocean's depths.

  Fitran countered with the “Spiral Rebirth Wave”—a spiral wave of energy from Voidlight and Excalibur that filled the air with heartbeat-like pulses, breaking the whirlpool and creating an empty space in the middle of the ocean of existence. In that moment, a surge of magical energy coursed through his body, as if every fiber of his muscles was strengthened by the energy flowing within his soul. He felt as if he were building a bridge of hope amidst the currents that sought to consume everything, an island of hope formed from the weight of every battle he had endured.

  The Sirens of Void circled around Fitran, trying to whisper doubt into his mind. Their voices echoed, forming soft whispers that danced among the roaring sounds of battle. Yet Fitran responded with the “Namekeeper Chant,” a voice magic that strengthened his own identity, refusing to be forgotten by Poseidon's waves. The magical vibrations of his words felt like a tickle on his skin, as if giving him renewed spirit to fight against the waves of darkness.

  Leviathan lunged at Fitran, but the Voidlight sword slashed through its scales, sending flashes of black energy along the monster's body. Each clash of metal rang out sharply, accompanied by the salty aroma of the surging sea. The Kraken struck the water's surface, creating an existential tsunami, but Excalibur cleaved through the wave, scattering light in all directions. Fitran felt the fierce wind rush past his face, as if the world was inscribing magical power around him.

  Poseidon herself now descended into the arena, standing atop the waves. She struck Fitran with her trident, each blow creating a resonating splash that vibrated to the world's core. As the water brushed against his skin, Fitran gathered all his focus, feeling the pulse of life flowing not only within him but in every element around him.

  Fitran parried, then with both swords, summoned “Cosmic Abyss Severance”—two glowing blades slicing through the waves, splitting the whirlpool, and embedding themselves into the ocean's depths, as if he were cleaving the world's memories in two. With each slash, he felt energy radiating from within, igniting his fighting spirit, and casting light into the darkness that engulfed him. In that moment, it felt as if time paused for a brief second, listening to the heartbeat that resonated from this battle.

  In the midst of the fight, the world of Stones was almost entirely submerged by the existential ocean, yet amidst the whirlpool, Fitran and Poseidon continued to challenge each other, each standing firm in their own power. The rushing water created a roaring sound like thunder that shook the soul, while the scent of sea salt filled the air, bearing silent witness to the chaos unfolding.

  Rinoa screamed in the distance, watching as Fitran was slowly pulled into the maelstrom—yet the spiral light from Voidlight was still visible, signaling that hope had not yet faded. In her heart, every beat was filled with anxiety, and cold sweat trickled down her forehead, mingling with the howling wind. As if time slowed, she felt the tension enveloping the battlefield as the day gradually faded.

  Poseidon raised her trident once more, preparing for the final attack. Electricity crackled in the air, every strand of energy triggering vibrations on Fitran's skin. Fitran, with heavy breaths and a body full of water wounds, tightly gripped both swords, ready to unleash his ultimate technique against the deity of the ocean who sought to drown everything. His grip on the sword felt strong, as if he were absorbing power from the ocean's core itself, and the light of his sword vibrated with hope, chasing the shadow of darkness that enveloped his existence.

  Water and light, spirals and currents, met in the midst of a world on the brink of disappearance. In every heartbeat, it became increasingly clear that this battle was not merely a physical confrontation, but a struggle between two souls fighting to carve their destinies. The vibrations around him made Fitran feel his heartbeat thrum, as if collaborating with the natural forces demanding the attention of all existing entities.
