Chapter 17: Council Fracture – The Betrayal of Seraph Auron

  The Heavenly Dome was no longer silent.

  It echoed with fear.

  With two Seraphs dead and the third turned into a karmic lantern, the Council of Light finally appeared—not as gods, but as desperate immortals wearing borrowed grace.

  


  “This… cannot continue.”

  Their robes of starlight shimmered like cracked porcelain. Their voices, once unshakable, now trembled behind divine decrees. Li Feng had done more than defy them.

  He had changed the rules.

  


      


  •   Stability of Heaven’s Laws: 73% → 49%

      


  •   


  •   Effect: Divine abilities suffer delay in mortal realm

  •   


  •   Threat Emergence: "Unknown Seraphic Rift – Subject: Auron"

      


  •   
Auron knelt before the golden dais of the High Council. Twelve Thrones of Flame hovered above him, casting their usual gaze of mercy twisted into scrutiny.

  “Auron. Why do you delay? Your brothers have fallen,” barked High Seraph Tzahal.

  


  “And whose fault is that?” Auron asked calmly. “Yours—for casting out a disciple you feared.”

  The court froze.

  


  “You… question Heaven?”

  


  “No,” he said as he stood. His wings no longer glowed white, but silver-black. “I simply see that you are no longer it.”

  •   
Li Feng was meditating atop a mountain of celestial debris, sharpening Heavenpiercer against the ribs of a fallen titan.

  He didn’t flinch when the sky darkened.

  He knew who approached.

  


  “You came to kill me?” he asked.

  


  “I came… to choose.” Auron landed, robes fluttering. “And to show you there are more than two paths.”

  


  “You betrayed your kind.”

  


  “So did you.”

  They stood face to face.

  Sword and soul.

  Not as enemies…

  But not yet allies.

  Before they could cross blades, the sky split—not in light, but in void.

  Something emerged from beyond Heaven.

  Not of order.

  Not of chaos.

  But of Oblivion.

  The system screamed:

  


      


  •   Classification: ???

      


  •   


  •   Origin: Unknown

      


  •   


  •   Threat Level: Cataclysm+

      


  •   


  •   Status: Immune to Divine or Heretic Damage

      


  •   


  •   Codename: Null Seraph

      


  •   
The Null Seraph descended—a being of flickering memory and static form. Auron stepped in front of Li Feng, wings raised.

  


  “That… is not part of the cycle.”

  Li Feng grinned.

  


  “Good. I’m tired of cycles.”

  Together, mortal heretic and fallen angel turned to face the thing that should not exist.

  Heaven was no longer at war with a man.

  It was at war with what that man had unleashed.
