2025-04-04 08:14:21[Dark energy detected beyond the threshold. Must immediately overcome the source for survival.]
Leon took a deep breath, concentrating energy in his body. "I will not give up!"
With the remaining power, he focused energy in one point in his chest and released it. A bright light explosion suddenly radiated from within him, destroying the dark energy that wrapped his body.
The black -robed figure looked surprised, but did not show fear. "So fast ... interesting."
However, before Leon could go further, the crystal ball exploded with a deafening explosion. The strong wind sweeps the entire room, and Leon is thrown back.
When his eyes opened again, the black -robed figure had disappeared, and the black tower seemed to disappear in a dark fog. Leon felt dizzy, his body was tired, and the system gave a warning about the level of damage that was quite severe.
But one thing is certain: this is just the beginning.
Leon woke up with a heavy feeling all over his body. When his eyes open, what was first seen was a dark sky filled with thick fog. He lay on hard ground, and when moving his body, the pain hit his body. "Damn ... what happened?"
Leon's eyes still run away, and his consciousness returned slowly. Around him, the black tower had disappeared - no longer a large building that towering. Only the darkness and fog hanging, closing his eyes.
[Warning: Decreased health status. Magical energy is unstable.]
Leon felt a roar inside him, and as soon as he tried to stand up, a flash of pain made him stagger. "I ... have to get out of here," he hissed quietly, even though foreign feelings began to creep in his mind.
However, before he had a chance to go further, a voice came from behind. "Don't be in a hurry, Leon."
Leon turned his head, and saw the figure re -emerged from the fog, black robes and bright red eyes. But this time, the figure was seen more clearly - not just a barrier, but a stronger entity, more dangerous.
"You ... what do you want from me?" Leon asked, trying to set a breath.
The figure approached, his steps were light even though the fog was getting thicker. "I want to know if you will accept your destiny, or are you trying to avoid it as usual."
Leon bit his lips. "Destiny? I don't believe in destiny. I chose my own way."
The figure smiled faintly. "Everyone thinks so, Leon. However, here, in this place, destiny is not an option - that is a must. Your destiny has been written since you first entered this world."
Without being able to avoid the encouragement that came, Leon felt something spread in his body. "No ... I won't be part of your game."
The figure laughed softly, the sound of his laughter resonate in the air. "You may try to fight, but the bigger power has tied you up. Like that, Leon. What you face now is not just darkness, but destiny itself."
Leon began to feel a stronger strength to squeeze his body, as if the evil energy flowed into him. "What have you done to me?" Shouted Leon, trying to fight the urgent energy encouragement.
"You just received the power of the black tower. The power that will change you. However, you must learn to control it."
Without warning, the crushed crystal ball was again formed in the hands of a black robe figure, shining with a brighter dark light. Leon felt his whole body trembled, not only because of illness, but also because of uncertainty that gnawed at his mind.
"You won't be able to fight this, Leon. Your destiny has tied you to this power."
Leon closed his eyes, trying to focus, struggling to stay calm. However, along with that, the system inside him began to give more warnings. The dark energy in his body is now awakened, moving wildly, controlling every muscle and nerve.
[Warning: Dark energy goes beyond control. Must immediately take action.]
The figure looked at Leon with an expression that was difficult to understand. "You have to choose, Leon. Accept your destiny or ... die in confusion."
Without saying again, the figure disappeared into the fog, leaving Leon in an increasingly tense darkness.
"No!" Leon shouted, feeling the pressure was getting stronger. However, something in him woke up - a power that was different from what he used to feel. A force that he cannot control completely, but enough to give him courage.
With all his strength, Leon directed the energy to himself, trying to stabilize it. He could feel the process painful, like a gaping wound in him. But he knows one thing: if he does not control this power, he will become his slave.
In such circumstances, his consciousness began to disappear. Before he fell, only one thought made an impression on his mind. "I'll fight this destiny."
And darkness welcomed him.
----
Leon woke up again, this time faster than before, and his eyes wide open when he felt the hard soil under his body. His body was staggered, as if filled with deep pain, but that consciousness came clearly. Everything that happened before was not a dream, not an illusion. This is real.
However, what is bothering him the most is a feeling of a haunting emptiness. "Where am I?" he muttered.
The surroundings look different from before. The dark darkness now surrounds him, but there is one thing that attracts his attention - in a distance, a small light shines faintly, like the point of hope in the midst of gloom. Without thinking, Leon crawled up, feeling extreme pain throughout his body.
[Warning: Magical energy in your body is not stable. Don't force yourself.]
Leon gritted his teeth. "I don't care. I have to get out of here."
With a limp step, he headed for the light, struggling against the fatigue that almost defeated him. Every step feels like a large burden that presses his body, but the closer, the stronger the light becomes.
And finally, he arrived at the source of the light. A large door made of black stone, glowing with ancient symbols. That is the gate to ... something, who knows what.
Leon stood in front of the gate, staring with anxiety. He felt a feeling of being adrift between fear and the desire to step forward. The system gave another warning, but this time, he did not care. He wanted to know what was behind the gate, and what he could find on the other side.
"The system," he whispered in a tense voice, "open this gate."
However, there is no response. Only the silence answered. Leon knew that the system was increasingly unreliable after the events in the black tower, but he still tried with his own strength.
Leon's hand touched the gate, and an extraordinary force immediately possessed his body. "Aaargh!" He screamed in pain, his body staggered backwards. It feels like there is energy flowing into him without being able to control it. The longer, the stronger, until Leon feels like sinking in a very dark vortex.

However, before everything was dark, Leon felt something had changed. A soft voice, like a whisper coming from within himself, was clearly heard. "Control ... control ... or everything will be destroyed."The voice made Leon open his eyes and tried to control the power that flowed into his body. He felt a very strange sensation - like there were two competing forces in him. One is full of darkness and destruction, while the other feels warm and full of life. Leon knew that he could not constantly rely on systems or external forces. This is the time for him to fight alone, to fight the destiny that binds him. With all courage, he focused himself on the light in his heart - a light that had been covered by darkness. Slowly, the strength in him began to turn around, flowing with control. The gate, which previously could not be opened, now began to move. Slowly, the black stone shifted, giving a way to Leon to a bigger and more mysterious world. Behind the gate, Leon saw a vast valle

Leon's steps are more stable to enter the darker valley, even though the light inside him still radiates brightly. Every step feels heavy, as if the land underneath reminds of the dark history that is carved in this earth. Cold and moist air burst into his body, increasing the weight of the burden he must carry. However, he did not feel afraid. Every word of the valley guard woman echoed in her mind, pushing her to step forward. [Warning: The dark entity is getting closer. Be careful.]Warnings from the system reappeared, but Leon felt no need to depend on the system to find out what to do. The power that flows in him, although not yet fully controlled, gives him more than enough encouragement to move forward. He already knew that this was the choice he made - and there was no way backwards. In front of him, a ruins of ancient buildings emerged from the fog that began to surround him. A large temple that used to be used for magical or worship ceremonies, is now destroyed and forgott

Shortly thereafter, the fog around him trembled. From the gap between the dead trees, a shadow appeared in a dark robe. He did not walk, but hovering slowly closer, his face was covered in a silver mask with dragon carving. Leon prepares to be alert, his magic energy slowly flows into the palm of the hand. "Calm down, the prince was wasted," said the figure, his voice was heavy and echoed like an echo between ancient rocks. "I'm not your enemy. I ... your inheritance keeper."Leon stiffened. The words hit him loudly. "What do you mean? Who are you really?"The figure raised his hand. From the palm of his hand appeared a pale blue light, forming the symbol of the Old Kingdom-the same lambes as leon had seen in the prohibited records of the Arkana Academy Library. "My name is Vireon, the last guard of the Arkana Dynasty. When the palace was destroyed and the blood of the nobles was hunted to the roots, our job was to hide a true heritage. And now, that blood is beating in your body."

The roar of energy shakes the air. Leon's aura is now wrapping his body like a living layer of black-purple fire. His eyes were bright red. His breathing was heavy, deep, and rhythmic. His body adapted quickly, as if every sigh of breath was integrated with the strength of the ancestral heritage that now exploded out of him. The two remaining hunters exchanged glances. They are no longer rash. "He began to blend," whispered one of them. "It can't be left. Call a curse level three."One of the hunters lifts his middle finger to the sky. Blood drips from the palm of the hand and forms a circular symbol in the air. Suddenly the ground trembled, and from the gaps of the stone, the scaly black hands appeared that stuck wildly, gripping whatever they achieved. Leon was grinning. "Do you think I'm afraid of lonely mubs like that?"But Vireon shouted, "Don't underestimate it! It's a summons from the darkness of the darkness! If your body is touched, your soul energy can be snatched away!"

"Then," Leon said, stepping first, "It's time we go up."The wind bit the skin when Leon and Vireon tread the slopes of Mount Serpentia. The sky began to be purple red, like the blood frozen time. The mist down slowly, covering the path with a silent blanket. "This mountain ... is not just a place. This is a life tomb," murmured Vireon while pressing her stick to the ground. "Many rise, never come back."Leon took a breath. "I'm not many people."Faint, the sound of bells heard. Far. Repeated. But not from anywhere that can be seen by the eye. "You hear that?" Leon asked. "Voice illusion," Vireon answered shortly. "The first test. Don't be tempted to pursue the direction of the sound."Leon turned quickly. On the left side, as if the shadow passed. Like a woman with loose hair ... staring at her. "

Each step feels heavier, as if there is a power that presses from all directions."There is no way back now," he thought to himself.When they entered the temple area, the atmosphere changed completely. A deep silence enveloped them, there was no wind or whatever was heard other than the sound of their footsteps that hit a loud stone floor. In front of them, a large altar stands majestically in the middle of the room, surrounded by sharp obsidian stones. On the altar, a large crystal ball emits strange light that flows mysterious energy.Leon stopped, his eyes locked on the crystal ball, as if the ball had an extraordinary appeal. He felt something connected him

Now!"However, Leon remained silent, his eyes fixed on the crystal ball which now radiates dazzling white light."Mother ..." he whispered, his heart felt broken.Vireon shook Leon's body, forcing him to look in the other direction. "Leon! This is not a mother! This is an illusion! Don't be trapped!"With difficulty, Leon finally turned his head, surprised by the reality in front of his eyes. There, between the temples, he saw the shadow - the mother - but this time his face was filled with scary laughter, not the smile he knew.

The light danced on the wall, creating a shadow that occasionally made Vireon stop for a moment and looked suspiciously."How long is this place hidden?" asked Vireon, her voice slowly, but echoed."Nearly two decades," answered Leon softly. "Since the attack. Not many people know there is this hallway."Raina pays attention to wall engraving. "Every symbol here ... like a story. This is not just a hiding place, huh?"Leon nodded.

Those who die in betrayal are discarded from history, condemned so that they are never remembered."The sound from the sky was heard again - louder, closer. "The gate is waiting ... the guards who deny the oath ..."Raina stood up, her body stiffened. "They talk to you."Leon stood up slowly, his body trembled slightly. "And I know who they are.

"Yes. This is not just fog. This is a robe for something you want to enter."Vireon was still sitting, her face was wet with sweat.

"But ... this is not something that comes from our world."Vireon approached, his face was full of dust and scratches. His breath was gasped."The creature ran away. But before leaving, he spoke to me.

His hands were sweating, holding the sword handle more tightly. The dim light from the moon covered by clouds made the silhouettes of the two cloaked figures look like two deadly shadows."Vireon," he whispered softly, barely audible. "Take the left side. Don't attack first. Let them move first."Vireon nodded so much, then retreated slowly with alert attitude.

They have stepped so far together, and they will not retreat."If this is not over," Leon said in a voice full of determination, "then we must be prepared to face anything that comes. There is no way backwards."Vireon grinned, his eyes sparkled. "I will always be ready, Leon. For all of us."Raina nodded, and without words anymore, they left leaving the ruins, stepping towards a future full of uncertainty. Every step they feel heavy, but they know - they can't stop.
