Chapter 10 - 9.“The Gifts of Infinity”

The academy buzzed with chaos after the monster attack. Instructors went on full lockdown. Students were confined to dorm zones. Combat instructors reviewed footage on loop.

But Brian?

Brian sat in his room. Alone.

Infinity hovered in his mind, whispering.

> "You see now. You're not the only one anymore. Cam is you — just early. But you? You're prepared."

Brian closed his eyes.

He saw all of them.

David. Niko. Alcino. Declan. Hayk.

Even Kendall, far off, focused, sharp.

They weren't ready for what was coming.

So he made a choice.

🌀 Scene 1 – The Gift Ritual

He gathered them. Quietly.

Told them it was time to "amplify" their potential.

Said nothing about Cam. Or the monster. Or the void.

Just: "We need to be better."

He placed his hand on David's shoulder first.

A small ripple — a pulse of black-gold energy. Barely visible.

> "I call this Infinite Growth," Brian whispered.

David's body shifted. Not mutated. Not twisted. Just… expanded.

Suddenly, he felt light. Lifted off the ground.

"Yo… am I flying?" David laughed, stunned.

"You are," Brian smiled.

Next, Niko and Alcino — their legs vanished into wind, their bodies ghosting through gravity.

Declan's jacket bloomed into a full exo-armory — on instinct.

Hayk's hands synced with the environment. No code. Just thought.

He could see the energy flow of everything.

Each of them stood there in awe.

Brian, calm as ever.

> "You're all growing now. Infinitely."

👁️ Scene 2 – The Realization

Later that night, David asked him quietly, "Why now? Why give us this?"

Brian looked out the window at the stars.

> "Because someone like me is coming. Or already here. And if we don't level the board now… there won't be a board left."

🌌 End of Chapter 9

Cam watches from far away.

He sees what Brian did.

And he smiles.
