"It works!" Adrian exclaimed as he saw the device fulfill its purpose. Without wasting a second, he increased the power from his wristband. Milo let out a blood-curdling scream as he collapsed to his knees, his trembling hands desperately trying to rip off the vest clinging to his body. "What… what is this?" he stammered in a broken voice, his arrogance crumbling along with his strength. "Why am I losing my powers?" His voice turned into a muffled groan before he collapsed completely, overcome by pain.The mighty enemy, Milo, fell unconscious onto the sweat- and dust-soaked ground. Finally, after so much effort, he was defeated."And you said my power was useless," Adrian remarked from his position, a triumphant smile spreading across his face. Rafael applauded in admiration, though his body still showed signs of exhaustion."Bootlicker," Akira muttered with a mocking smirk, but Becky only managed a small smile, too tired to make any biting remarks.<

"That's right," the man replied with a smirk dripping with arrogance as he crossed his arms over his chest. "It's me: Zeus." His voice echoed artificially, as if trying to mimic the very thunder of the heavens.Drake took a step forward, his boots crunching against the sandy ground. His expression hardened like stone under the dim twilight light. "Milo!" he growled, clenching his fists until his knuckles turned pale. "You again... And you even copied my face!"Milo—or Zeus—let out a low, mocking laugh, exhaling dramatically. "Of course, brother," he said with disdain, tilting his head slightly. "I made some... minor adjustments to carry out my plan." His eyes gleamed with malice as he spread his arms wide, relishing every moment of this dramatic scene. "But now, thanks to all of you, you’ve destroyed years of hard work. I’ll have to start over... though this time, you won’t be part of the equation."His smile twisted into a macabre grimace, and the surrounding air seemed to chill, cha

"And now, what do I do?" Aiden thought, paralyzed by terror as he watched the monstrous creature approach with heavy steps that made the ground tremble beneath his feet. The air vibrated with each step, as if the earth itself was about to collapse. His wide, panic-stricken eyes locked onto the multiple heads of the abomination. Each one gleamed with fangs sharp as bloodied blades, dripping thick saliva that hissed upon touching the ground, leaving small smoking craters where it fell.The beast looked at him with a mix of insatiable hunger and almost human sadism. "You won’t have the same luck as your friend," growled one of the heads in a guttural voice that seemed to resonate from the depths of hell, enveloping him in an unsettling echo. "I’ll devour you slowly, piece by piece, with each of my heads, savoring every scream of agony." The serpentine tongues of the heads slithered lasciviously over their fangs, anticipating the macabre feast that was about to begin.

The clock began ticking with a countdown that seemed to resonate in the air like an ominous echo. Podbe and Aiden prepared for the final battle, their bodies tense and alert for what was to come.From the ground emerged Zeus in his hydra form, now more imposing than ever. Thousands of heads sprouted from his twisted body, each launching a different attack: lightning, fire, ice, and even slicing winds. When these attacks combined, they formed a massive horizontal beam the size of a six-story building, illuminating the space like a devastating bolt of lightning."Watch out!" Podbe shouted as he summoned a glowing crescent moon, using it as a reflective shield to deflect the beam into the void. "That was close," Aiden murmured, his breathing heavy as he watched the impact of the beam disappear into the distance."What are we going to do?" Aiden thought aloud, glancing around. There was nowhere to hide, and the situation grew more complicated with every passing second. "Besides, you can’t

"Aiden! Podbe!" everyone present shouted, their voices filled with anguish and despair. The echo of their cries was lost in the wind, as if the world itself had swallowed the two heroes without leaving a trace."Dear viewers, our two heroes saved the world by taking the beast Zeus with them... but at what cost?" Melisa said, her voice trembling as she tried to hold back tears. Her gaze remained fixed on the spot where the portal had vanished, as if hoping something—or someone—might miraculously return."They saved the world... but at what cost?" Billy repeated, sobbing as he clung to Elena and Maria. "We’ve lost them again… and now both of them," Maria added, her voice barely a whisper laden with sorrow. Elena lowered her head, unable to hide her guilt. "I… I wanted to apologize to Aiden properly," she murmured, clenching her fists in frustration."At least this way, my colleagues from the square no longer have to search for the boy if they’re still watching the report," the general r

The colossal monster spread its wings with an ear-splitting roar, preparing to strike. From its three mouths erupted a devastating combination of fire and electricity—a hellish storm that illuminated the sky like an apocalyptic dawn. Podbe reacted instantly, summoning a crescent-shaped force field that shone brightly before him. The attack collided with the barrier in a deafening explosion before being deflected toward the sea, triggering a tsunami that rose like a liquid wall toward the coast.Megumi acted swiftly, raising an imposing wall of earth to shield the group from the water's assault. At the same time, Adia created a protective dome that cushioned the residual impact, sealing everyone inside a temporary refuge. Despite their combined efforts, the trembling ground and the distant roar of the monster reminded them of the magnitude of the threat they faced.Elsewhere, those watching the broadcast looked on in horror as the gigantic reptile dominated the horizon. Those near the

"My name is Lucca, and I belong to the Broccoli race… that is, I’m a broccoli," the old man announced proudly, though his voice was still interrupted by hiccups."Does it seem so?" Mok responded in a professional tone, hiding a hint of irony. Lucca wore a somewhat worn maroon suit, and his vibrant green hair fell in small, wavy curls over his forehead."I see… Your form is different from ours," Mok commented, striving to maintain a respectful attitude despite the odd situation."Are you sure you’re alright? It seems like you’ve had quite a bit to drink," Mok asked, lightly furrowing his brow as he caught another strong whiff of alcohol emanating from the elderly man."No, no, nonsense, son! Hic! Hic! I may drink, but I have no issues. Someone at the tavern must’ve slipped something into my drink," Lucca replied, clumsily searching through his pockets. Suddenly, his expression shifted to one of concern. "They stole from me! Damn it, they’ve taken my cane! It must’ve been those youngste

"Alright, now I have a partner to practice with, just like Paltio and his friends. How interesting," Lukeandria murmured, observing the small green ferret with curiosity. "So this is your mental space, Lume?" she asked, glancing around."Yes, it is. And my master Kilibur told me to train you, so here we go," Lume replied with a mischievous smile before vanishing in a flash.Suddenly, several identical images of Lume appeared in front of Lukeandria, moving rapidly toward her with clear intent to attack."Hah! Simple illusions won’t be enough to take me down," Lukeandria exclaimed confidently, but she soon realized these were no ordinary illusions. They felt as real as she was, surrounding her from all sides and attacking mercilessly. Within seconds, Lukeandria was on the ground, gasping for breath and covered in small scratches."Hmm, I thought you’d be stronger. Didn’t you say you were a warrior?" Lume teased, crossing his front paws."I am! You caught me off guard. Let’s go again," L

"What do you mean, ‘it might be a possibility’?" Mok asked, raising an eyebrow skeptically."Don’t you remember? Each of the guardians’ assistants was assigned to my friends for training," Paltio explained urgently. "Once they were ready, those assistants would leave because they’re linked to them.""Ah, now that you mention it, I do recall that, Master," Mok said as he polished his monocle with a handkerchief, his expression thoughtful."Yes, as I said: it could be, or it might not," Golden replied cautiously. "Our companions form a mental bond with the person they’re assigned to. This pact is unbreakable until one of two conditions is met: either their task is completed, or the individual dies. There’s no other way to sever that connection.""Quickly, Nakia, Chiki! Try to communicate with them," Paltio ordered, his voice brimming with renewed hope.The bird and the dog closed their eyes, concentrating deeply. Several minutes passed in absolute silence, but eventually, both opened th

"Alita and Ron are dead," Mok said in a grave voice."No! It can’t be true! Tell me it isn’t true, Mok!" Paltio replied, his voice trembling with disbelief. "I’m sorry, Paltio, but it’s true… meow," added Toco-Toco in a low tone, his words seeming to echo painfully like an inevitable truth.The atmosphere grew heavy with silence, broken only by muffled sobs and the invisible weight of loss. Even Rykaru, always so Stoic, appeared crestfallen. "What do you mean, dead?" Kilibur asked, her voice breaking. "Yes... Alita and Ron are gone," Nakia confirmed, as if repeating it might make reality sink in further."No… no, it can’t be true. My friends wouldn’t…" Paltio collapsed to his knees, beating the ground with clenched fists as tears streamed uncontrollably down his face. Pain radiated from every movement, every ragged breath he took.Lukeandria, her gaze lowered and her voice laden with guilt, spoke up: "I’m sorry, Paltio. If only I had intervened better, none of this would have happened

"Well, you see, Paltio..." Avocios began, his tone measured but brimming with meaning. "During the war, one of your ancestors stood by my side. He fought alongside my warriors and, over time, even became one of my guardians. Long ago, I told him that if he ever needed anything, he could turn to this sphere, and in a moment of dire need, it would grant him a wish... any wish, without restriction. He could have asked for eternal youth, infinite life, his own realm, or a lifetime filled with adventure. But no... He chose to save it for when the emergency was truly grave. The sphere passed from generation to generation until it reached your grandfather’s hands.That is also one of the reasons I entrusted your family with the ability to wield my power. The blood of one of my guardians flows through your veins.""So that’s why we’re attuned to your weapons… How awesome!" Paltio interrupted, a mix of awe and excitement coloring his voice as he rapidly processed the revelation.Avocios contin

Well, to begin with, I must tell you my story. Avocios began in a deep and serene voice, as if unveiling an ancient secret he had guarded for eons. Many millions of light-years ago, before the universe existed as it does now, my siblings and I—omnipotent beings—awoke from a slumber in which we had been submerged.When we opened our eyes, all was perpetual darkness, an infinite void without form or purpose. It was then that my first sibling conceived the idea of giving life and creating a universe filled with stars. Another sibling was inspired to form planets, vast and diverse. A third chose to endow those planets with essential elements: plants, earth, water, and fire. The fourth, fascinated by the possibilities, suggested creating forms of life. And I… I granted free will to every living being so they could forge their own paths without relying too much on us.Each of us was given a different portion of the universe to create as we wished. Thus, we divided the cosmos among ourselves
