"Run faster! We don't have any more time!"

A man in robes and long white hair sprinted into the dense forest in the middle of the night.

The sound of owls and the howling of wolves fill the silence of the night in the forest.

The man was carrying a baby wrapped in a white cloth while holding the hand of a beautiful woman to escape as far as possible.

"Where are we going? Why did you invite our child and me to the middle forest at night?" Saffia asked behind her husband.

"Shut up! You and our child must get as far away as possible!"

"Why?" Saffia replied.

"I don't have time to explain."

The man stopped in the middle when he felt he was far from the Xirna palace. He gave the whining baby to his wife. "Go as far as you can. You must remember that! You're never coming back here ever again! Understand?!"

"Why won't you explain to me, Ozel?! What really happened?!" Saffia looked at her husband disappointed. The woman was like a net bobbing in the middle of the sea.

"Look at me, Darling." The handsome man cupped Saffia's face and looked at her closely. He smiled gently. "I promise I'll explain everything to you next time… if we ever meet again."

"What do you mean?!" Saffia's tears fell uncontrollably.

Ozel couldn't answer.

"Answer me quickly, Ozel! Exactly what happened?!" Fear gripped Saffia's chest more and more until it felt tight.

"I'm sorry... I can't tell you right now." The man kissed Saffia's forehead for a long time until his tears fell profusely.

'I am sorry, dear. I will pass the precious moments caring for our son until he grows up.'

"Explain, Ozel!" Saffia was crying even more. His feelings were so broken and sad for no reason. She was able to detect the sinister events that were happening in the palace.

"Go. I will be in your heart forever."

Ozel whistled for a giant white eagle.

"Wait! You haven't explained anything to me; why should I go?!" Saffia shouted hysterically.

Ozel pretended to be deaf. He just stared at the bird coldly. "Take them as far away as possible."

The giant bird nodded and immediately grabbed Saffia's shoulders, then carried the woman flying high away from the poor man.

"Let me go! I don't want to part with you! How dare you throw me away!" Saffia cried while thrashing around.

"What do you want, Roxy?! Why are you causing destruction?!" Marco Simoncelli glared at his youngest son in anger. A sword covered in red flames was drawn in his hand.

Out of breath, Marco struggled to stay on his feet against his own son. Even though the energy and strength had been drained due to being attacked repeatedly by Roxy.

'Where are you, Ozel? Come quickly before it's too late.'

Roxy, the black-haired man, smirked mockingly. "Now you want to know why I rebelled? Didn't you care about me for decades?"

Marco growled angrily. "Stop talking nonsense!"

Roxy growled angrily, offended. "It turns out that all this time, you didn't realize that you were mistreating me! To be considered a lackey by my father is the most painful thing for me!!" Roxy whipped his father with a whip covered in black flames.

"Argh!" Marco groaned in pain as he fell down. He was holding his arm, which was injured from Roxy's attack.

Roxy gave an evil and satisfied laugh. "Finally…. I Will finally become the king of the world!"

The castle had been completely destroyed by the attacks of Roxy and his soldiers.

"It's impossible!" Ozel suddenly came, making Roxy turn to him. The white-haired man jumped down from his giant white bird and stood before his older brother.

Roxy chuckled sarcastically. "Finally… you came, my little brother." Roxy grinned slyly. "Do you want to save your dear father?"

"Come to your senses! Why did you suddenly turn into a devil, Roxy! What's gotten into you?" Ozel shouted in disappointment.

Roxy's anger exploded. "I hated you after Father made you king and threw me away like trash! I'm the eldest son, not you!"

"Father never threw you out! If you behave properly, Father will crown you as king!" said Ozel.

"You are the old man's favorite child! So you will never understand how I feel!"

"Whatever you say! But you must end your ridiculous act immediately!"

"Stop it?" Roxy chuckled sarcastically. "You have no right to order me! Especially now that I'm the strongest man on earth because I have the Dark Dragon sword! No one will be able to beat me now!"

Ozel was wide-eyed to perfection. "So you are allied with that devil? Are you insane? Did you forget the result?"

"I don't care! Because what matters most to me is that I managed to kill you, then became king worldwide!"

"You are crazy!"

"Of course! I would be crazy!" Roxy grinned proudly. "None of your business!"

"You are a Bastard! If you don't stop it, I will have to …!" Ozel draws a white, gleaming sword from the scabbard strapped to his waist. The sword hilt is engraved with the Legendary Dragon. "...KILL YOU!"

"WOW!" Roxy clapped his hands and grinned crookedly. "Spectacular! So, it turns out that the sword has turned to you? No wonder this Old Man was so weak when he fought me."

"DON'T YOU EVER INSULT FATHER!"

Ozel dashed at Roxy as fast as lightning and slashed his sword to attack him.

Casually, Roxy parried all of Ozel's barrage of attacks with his black sword. The handle is engraved with the Black Legendary Dragon.

The two of them fought each other fiercely.

"How?" Roxy grinned smugly. "Are you impressed with this new sword of mine?"

"Nonsense!"

Ozel jumped backward so that there was quite a bit of distance between him and Roxy.

"It seems that you are not good at controlling that sword yet. So how about you just give the sword to me and let me be king instead of you?" Roxy smirked crookedly.

"DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE ME, DEVIL!"

The two of them fought fiercely.

∆∆∆

Ozel lay helpless after taking Roxy's finishing blows due to the power of the Dark Dragon's sword. Even though his White Dragon's sword prowess was much stronger than Roxy's. However, Ozel is not good at mastering it because it takes hundreds of years to tame it.

Ozel glanced at the sword lying not far from his position.

'I must win! I should be able to kill Roxy and snatch that devil's sword, after all! The fate of the world is now in my hands!'

If Roxy managed to seize the White Dragon's sword and combine it with the Dark Dragon's sword, Roxy could unlock the divine power hidden by the ancestors. Because that power cannot be used arbitrarily because it carries a significant risk. According to the owner's orders, the world will be shrouded in darkness or peace.

That power will only comply with requests and submit to the person who manages to unlock it. That key was the White and Black Dragon sword. This power is only a legend circulating because it has yet to be able to open the gate of that power. With all his strength left, Ozel tries to reach for the sword that is not far away.

However, it was too late. Roxy came and stepped on Ozel's hand while chuckling evilly.

"Argh!" Ozel groaned in pain.

"Do you want this?" Roxy picked up the sword that had lost its light.

"DON'T TOUCH THAT SWORD, DEVIL! YOU DON'T DESERVE IT!"

"Finally..." Roxy marveled at the structure of the sword engraved with the Legendary White Dragon. "This sword belongs to me."

"Get back!" Ozel tried to get up, but Roxy immediately kicked Ozel and knocked him far away.

"You've lost! What are you living for anymore?! So, you must die!" Roxy was getting ready to stab Ozel in the chest.

'There's no other way. I have to use that move!'
