Ved helped awaken Mira, the Mirror Flame, by entering her mind and confronting both their traumas. Two of the Seven Hidden Lineages have now been revealed. But far from celebration, new enemies stir…

Location: Mumbai – Neon Underground
The city danced above in luxury and noise.
Below, in a tunnel carved beneath the Dharavi sector, something else danced — a blade of pure silence.
A monk lay dead.
His chakra nodes erased. His body untouched.
Only one word etched into the air in psychic script:
"ERASURE."

Cut to: Agnira's Hideout
Ved, Mira, and Rehan studied ancient texts over tea and tension.
"Someone's targeting the Hidden Lineages," Mira said. "One died last night. Clean chakra erasure."
Agnira nodded. "They've sent a being called an Eraser. A weapon created when science mimics ancient death rituals."
Ved clenched his fists. "Do we know who it's after?"
Rehan hesitated. "They've started with Third Flame. Mira."
Silence fell.

The Assassin Arrives
That night, a strange energy flooded the compound.
CCTV screens melted into static.
Mira froze mid-step.
"He's here."
From the shadows, a tall figure appeared — cloaked, faceless, with skin that seemed to glitch between man and machine.
The Eraser's voice was emotionless:
"Mira of the Third Flame. Your karma has been deemed irredeemable. Prepare for spiritual deletion."
He raised a single finger.

Battle: Silence vs Reflection
Ved stepped forward. "You'll have to go through me."
The Eraser flicked his hand.
And all sound vanished.
No air. No breath. No heartbeat.
Even Mira's Mirror Flame dimmed — unable to reflect what didn't exist.
But Ved remembered something.
In silence, you can hear your truth.
He entered the Voidspace — a chakra field that exists between reality and spirit.

Ved's Evolution: Chakra Link Activation
In the Voidspace, Ved met something — his future self, now clearer.
"You're not fighting to win," the future Ved said. "You're fighting to awaken."
Ved's core chakra glowed gold — not with power, but connection.
Back in the real world, the Eraser stabbed forward—
—but his hand stopped.
Mira was behind him.
Her reflection had trapped his motion one second in the past.
She whispered, "You forgot one thing. Karma reflects."
Together, she and Ved shattered his form.
But the mask remained.

Revelation: Eraser Wasn't Alive
No blood.
Just tech, scripture, and a chakra seal.
Agnira appeared. "They're not human. They're constructs. Made from stolen lineage codes."
Rehan whispered, "That means… someone's building anti-lineage weapons."
Mira stared at the broken mask.
"He said I was first. That means more are marked."

Final Scene: The Next Target
In Varanasi, a boy danced on burning coals, smiling.
He had fire in his blood and the Fourth Flame in his eyes.
From the rooftops, another Eraser watched silently.
