Chapter 6 - Chapter 6 – “Storm Over Steel”

Magnetism versus lightning.Steel versus instinct.And a master's legacy… against a student's ambition.

🎤 Central Arena – 1v1 MatchAnnouncer:— "Next battle! INAVY STORMBREAK… versus MARKUS ZEN!"

The crowd erupts at the mention of the name Stormbreak.

"Stormbreak?!""That's the kid trained by Ray, right?""He's gonna use lightning for sure!"

⚡ Inavy's EntranceThe camera follows Inavy walking down the tunnel. His emerald-green eyes glow under the arena lights.His curly hair sways gently. He takes a deep breath.

A close-up on his thunder-shaped pendant — Ray's legacy.

🧲 Markus' EntranceOn the other side, Markus Zen enters — tall, part of his body already coated in metal. Magnets orbit his arms.He smirks with confidence.

Markus (taunting):— "Lightning doesn't work on steel, Stormboy."

🌀 The Battle BeginsAnnouncer:— "FIGHT!"

Markus instantly activates his magnetic field. Metal fragments rise from the ground.Inavy spins to the side, dodging swiftly. He smiles.

🧠 Flashback – Two Years AgoRay Stormbreak stands with Inavy in a training field. Thunder roars in the sky.

Ray:— "Thunder Spear. One of the most dangerous techniques I've ever created."

Inavy (curious):— "What's it for, Dad"

Ray (serious):— "It's for when a hero has to do the impossible...When saving the world depends on a single, perfect bolt."

Ray extends his hand. A dense, crimson spear of lightning forms.

Ray:— "This isn't just a technique.It's a promise — to never fail when it matters most."

⚡ Back to the FightInavy dodges with grace. His movements are smooth, almost like a dance.

Markus (laughing):— "Playtime's over!"

He pulls up steel pillars from the field, hurling them toward Inavy.Inavy leaps, spins mid-air — and closes his eyes.

Inavy (whispers):— "Dad… it's time."

The ground shakes. Dark clouds swirl above the arena.

Inavy clasps his hands. Lightning coils into a spiral.A crimson, unstable spear forms in his hand.

Announcer (shocked):— "IS THAT... THE THUNDER SPEAR!?"

The crowd explodes.

⚡⚔️ Final BlowInavy (shouting):— "THUNDER SPEAR!"

He hurls the technique.The spear surges like an electric comet, piercing through Markus' magnetic field and detonating in a blast of energy.

BOOOOM!

As the dust settles... Markus lies defeated.

👏 Crowd in FrenzyDiana (in the crowd, whispering):— "This boy… is different."

Hayate (serious):— "He's not Ray…But he's something new."

👀 Final Scene – Veteran CommentaryLorien (arms crossed, watching):— "Get ready, Kelvin… Inavy's at 100%."

Kelvin (smirking slightly):— "Don't worry. Everything's under control."

Kelvin's eyes glint faintly with suppressed shadow energy.
