Chapter 15 - Chapter 15: Tenrou Unleashed – The End of the Conductor

[Scene opens – Rekikan skies burning red, battlefield trembling beneath a storm of soul pressure]

The Choir froze mid-hymn.The Conductor stopped plucking.Even the fog recoiled.

Because Jin Kuroya now stood midair—cloak flaring like torn banners in a hurricane, eyes glowing white-hot, and his new blade, Renzai: Tenrou, humming with the fury of a soul finally unchained.

No more flickering.No more unstable resonance.Just absolute sync.

Captain Aria whispered from below:"He's no longer fighting with flame…He is the flame."

[The Conductor snarls, voice layered in cursed tones]

"That blade should have died with your brother…"

He slammed his hand into the ground—soulstrings exploded outward like spiderwebs, piercing the terrain and sky.

Dozens of Choir members resumed their hymn in unison.

Reality twisted. Gravity reversed.Squad Six was pinned by invisible pressure.

[Jin doesn't move.]

"I don't need the world to be stable."He raised Tenrou."I just need to be the strongest thing left standing."

He vanished in flame.

[Boss Battle – Jin vs. The Conductor of Silence]

The Conductor summoned constructs of sound—massive blade-shaped harmonies that screamed and shattered air.

Jin tore through them mid-flight, leaving flaming trails across the sky.

Each slash of Tenrou left behind sigils that didn't fade—they stacked.

"Crimson Seal: Refrain Cutter."Jin slashed diagonally—one sigil detonated.He kicked upward. Two more exploded.

The battlefield shook like thunder.

[Meanwhile – Squad Six breaks free]

Marin launched soulshots into the Choir ranks.

Sora landed a dagger in a throat and vanished again.

Ketsu rewired the spirit pressure."Jin's blade is warping the battlefield itself. We fight in his song now."

Captain Aria stepped beside them."Then let's make this his stage."

[Back to the Final Clash – Jin vs. Conductor, Phase Two]

The Conductor summoned his ultimate ability—Silent Reverie—an inverted world of pure silence where no soul techniques function.

Jin landed inside it.

The world turned grayscale.

No sound.No flames.No escape.

[Jin whispers to Tenrou]

"Even if you take everything away…"He closed his eyes."The fire is inside. It always was."

His body burst into radiant white flame—burning in complete silence.

Renzai's true soul ignited.

"Soul Detonation: Heavenbrand Strike."

One clean slash.

The world cracked.

[Final Sequence – The Conductor's end]

The Silent Reverie shattered.

The Conductor fell, body unraveling into ash and fading notes.

"Impossible…"

Jin stood over him."You made a beautiful song…"He sheathed Tenrou."…but it needed a better ending."

Snap.

The Conductor vanished.

[Aftermath – Silence across the Rekikan]

The Choir? Defeated.

The fog? Gone.

And Jin?

Now standing in the center of the scorched battlefield—alone, but surrounded by echoes of everything that led him here.

Crowds watching from towers.Captains watching from shadows.And above them all… the soulforge mark glowing on his back.

[Final Scene – Council Chamber, Shadowed Room]

Captain Genroku watched the scene through a soul mirror.

"He's ready," he said.

Another voice whispered, dark and hungry:

"Then initiate the Crimson Eclipse Protocol."
