Sadi had continuously been the one to persevere through Sophia's insuperable coldness, but after observing her in Thor's arms, Sadi made up his mind that if Sophia needed to be free from him, at that point he would do anything she needed. As he was, a useless individual in her eyes.

Sadi cast a contemptuous look at Sophia and said, "If it is, at that point I am breaking off this engagement."

"You are free to choose whomever you need, Sophi."

Sophia curved her brows; she looked at Thor in skepticism. She might not understand that Sadi would be the one to report it.

A man like Sadi... who had continuously been non-boastful, how might he break the engagement? It would be her to break it.

How dare he?

"You?"

Sophia parted her lips in disbelief.

"Are you serious? Okay, now I can marry of my choice. I trust your father won't come slithering back again to ask for my hand for his son."

"No," Sadi right away answered immovably, his glare fixed.

"My father won't go. In reality, it will be you. You will ask to come back."

Sophia raised her brows in a mix of stun and shock. She could not accept that Sadi might talk in such a discourteous way; who would not set out to talk terribly against Sophia. The seethe, the fire, which she had continuously needed to see inside a man, she took note of in his eyes.

Thor had been observing their fight for so long. But after hearing Sadi's comment, Thor hindered between Sophia and Sadi, "Wait, you!"

Thor pointed his finger at Sadi. "You are the guy who has no control to summon a mythical beast, the one who has fizzled each challenge, right?"

Thor said those words to insult Sadi, implying to down his pride. But Sadi did not indeed take Thor truly; he neglected him and was around to make his way to take off. But Thor did not let him go effectively. Thor got irate when Sadi overlooked him. How may somebody like Sadi, who was considered a useless, feeble, powerless man, dare to ignore him?

"How dare you?" Thor shouted.

"You think you can walk away after ignoring me?"

"You are nothing without your father's title; still, you have the guts to neglect me?"

"How do you know I am nothing without my father's title? Did you consider almost me as long as I know I am not that imperative or eye-catching?" Sadi scoffed. His eyes were calm and detached, as if Thor's words didn't bother him at all.

Thor tightened his jaw and said, "Arrogance!"

"We will see what you can do on the determination day."

"I will see how distant that pomposity gets you."

Thor's confront hardened.

Sadi gave him an unflinching look and replied, "Okay, at that point, we will see on the choice day."

"I trust Sophia won't lament it." Sadi said as he looked at Sophia.

Sophia crossed her arms and answered with self-importance, "I will never, ever lament it." Her lips twisted into a self-satisfied smile.

The situation changed to the domain of Celestoria.

The ancient chief, Ethan, sat scrunched over a stack of papers, his hands moving gradually as he scribed something in a dialect known as it were to a few; it appeared something imperative. His white facial hair touched the material as he scribed, and his long cap on the head was decorated with pearls.

After wrapping it up, he collapsed the material carefully and tied it to a pigeon's leg. The pigeon cooed some time recently, flying out and vanishing into the tremendous sky inside a diminutive. Ethan stood up and came out of the chamber, observing it go. His intellect was overwhelmed with the contemplation of what was almost to come.

He thought, 'The time has come."

'It has been so long since I have seen him; he must be a solid man presently. I trust Antonio has taken great care of him."

Ethan considered where he was walking.

'I cherished him, but presently it's time to confront the world; he is the fundamental beneficiary of control. I have to clarify everything to him on time, and at that point my work will be complete.' Ethan thought and breathed out. He strolled toward an antique temple.

The sanctuary held a dim history.

The sanctuary had once been a place of reverence for all the high-ranking warriors and conjurers. The sanctuary had been surrendered ever since the previous chief and his spouse were killed there by obscure culprits. But the incongruity was that no one knew who murdered them, and they had a child who had vanished after that day.

There was a dull mystery that Ethan was attempting to cover up. His strides resounded against the stones of the sanctuary. As he walked around, his look fell on the disintegrating dividers and the moss-covered statues and stones of the sanctuary. But abruptly, he listened to a stride that hindered his considerations, and he talked, "General, what are you doing here?"

He was calm and composed, as regular. In spite of the fact that he didn't turn around, he got to be completely cognizant of the nearness that had drawn him closer since of his sharp senses.

Ethan was a master warrior; he acquired the control of firmament vitality, aced divine combat styles, and had profound otherworldly information. General Mason stepped forward and bowed, but Ethan did not turn back and kept enjoying the surrounding scenario.

Mason raised his look and informed, "Chief, I have pleasantly organized the arrival for the combat. Presently, you have to check it out."

"I trust you, Mason; no need to recheck." Ethan's tone was dismissive.

Mason then lowered his gaze; he hesitated a bit, but still, by gathering the courage, he asked, his tone unwavering, "Chief, we still can't find where the stone is. What will we do this time?"

The source of Celestoria's control and the key to their dominance over the other domains, the stones had been lost so long ago. And Ethan and Mason tried hard to conceal the truth from everyone.

Ethan pondered for a moment before responding, "Mason, don't worry; everything will be fine. Just let the combat happen."

Mason became agitated; he could not comprehend how the chief might stay calm at this sensitive moment.

"But what about stone, chief? We cannot rule over everyone with a lie. They will know it soon," Mason's voice cracked.

  • A shadow rose over the dead sands

    As the applause echoed across the hall, Sadi stood unmoving—his expression calm, almost unreadable. The Sword of Surtr rested in his hand, its flames now dulled but still warm, as if acknowledging its new master. The badge on his chest gleamed beneath the torchlight, but he didn’t smile.Not yet.He could feel their eyes. Their awe. Their envy. Their doubt.Behind him, the other warriors watched in silence. Some with admiration. Others with veiled resentment.Antonio stood tall, pride lighting up his features. But he kept a hand on Sadi’s shoulder, grounding him.“You’ve done well,” he whispered in his son’s ear. “Now begins the harder part—proving you’re worthy of it.”Sadi gave a small nod. He understood.Ethan dismissed the gathering with a respectful bow. The sages stood, robes flowing behind them like waves, and began to leave in silence. The crowd murmured in groups, buzzing like a stirred hive.Sadi stepped down from the platform.As he moved through the crowd, some gave him no

    That evening at dinner, Antonio spoke while chewing, “You shouldn’t have come back like that, Sadi.”Sadi looked up briefly but kept eating in silence.Antonio set down his fork and added, “It could affect your future—your whole career.”Sadi lowered his gaze and gave a small nod.Across the table, Hiro raised a brow, watching their father’s concern shift fully toward Sadi.Laura gently placed a prawn on Sadi’s plate. “Honey, can we not talk about this at dinner?” she said with a soft smile. “Let him eat in peace.”Hiro let out a quiet sigh and took another bite. His expression stayed cold. He barely touched the rest of his food.Antonio smiled again, this time with genuine pride. “Still, you did great today.”Laura and Luca smiled too, proud and beaming. But Hiro’s face remained tight. His eyes narrowed slightly as he watched.“Everyone was hoping to meet you,” Antonio added, glancing at Sadi.Sadi paused, then said quietly, “Father, I never wanted any of that.”“I didn’t do it for a

  • Why do you think he loves me more than you?

    Damon stormed into the chamber and, without a word, slapped Draco across the face.Draco staggered back, eyes wide. He slowly touched his cheek, lowering his gaze in silence.“This is ridiculous!” Damon roared. “You couldn’t even capture the beast?”Draco stammered, “Father… that beast was too strong to handle.”“Shut up!” Damon snapped. His voice thundered through the room. “Then how did Sadi—that worthless boy—manage to capture it? Are you that pathetic?”Draco’s shoulders slumped. He couldn’t look his father in the eyes.“You’ve ruined everything,” Damon growled, veins bulging in his temple. “You’ve spilled water on all my plans.”“I… I’m sorry, Father,” Draco murmured, barely audible.Damon took a deep breath, trying to cool the fire in his chest. He stepped back, sank into his chair, and leaned back.He pinched the bridge of his nose, voice now low but still sharp. “Tell me exactly what you saw in there.”Draco nodded hesitantly and began recounting the battle—Sadi’s speed, the s

  • First the temple… now the beast

    Sadi’s eyes slowly fluttered open. His vision was blurry, but he could make out a familiar face.Nowshin.She sat beside him, her soft smile lighting up the room.She leaned closer and asked gently, “Sadi, are you okay?”He tried to sit up, but Nowshin quickly held his arm. “Hey, take it easy,” she said. “You’ve been through a lot. Just rest.”He let out a tired sigh and stayed lying on the stone bench, staring at the ceiling.“What happened back there?” he asked, voice hoarse.“Don’t worry,” Nowshin replied. “The sages sealed Drakari in a safe place.”Sadi exhaled deeply and closed his eyes again.Nowshin’s smile widened. “You were amazing, Sadi. I knew you had it in you.”He smiled faintly, his chest rising with relief.“You know,” she continued, her eyes glowing, “the whole crowd was whispering your name. Everyone wants to meet you. You’re the talk of the entire arena.”Sadi slowly turned his head toward her, quietly listening.“And,” she added playfully, “I think you’re going to b

  • Sadi has returned

    In the real world, Benjamin, Avil, and Nikita burst out of the magical gate. They hit the ground hard, rolling across the arena floor.The crowd erupted in cheers and applause, not realizing what had happened inside.Benjamin looked up first—and saw Draco standing in front of them, glaring coldly.His eyes narrowed. Because of Draco, Sadi couldn’t make it out with them.Benjamin stood, just as General Mason approached.“General, we need help,” Benjamin said quickly.Mason frowned. “What happened?”“There’s a celestial beast in there. It attacked us. Sadi stayed behind to fight it.”Mason’s eyes widened. “A celestial beast?”“Yes,” Benjamin confirmed. “We couldn’t stop it. That thing... it’s too powerful. We need to do something—now.”Mason froze for a second. He looked deep in thought, as if something clicked in his mind.“What kind of beast was it?” he asked.“It’s Drakari. The Aries sign.”Mason didn’t respond. He turned sharply and leapt onto the upper floor, where the sages and le

  • The power of Scorpio

    Benjamin and Avil stopped just in front of the glowing gate, holding tightly onto Nikita. The wind howled louder near the entrance, whipping around them like a storm.“Benjamin, quickly!” Avil urged, her voice almost lost in the chaos.He nodded and stepped forward.Just before the strange gravity of the gate pulled him in, he caught one last glimpse—Sadi standing alone, facing the towering Drakari. Then, everything went white as the light from the gate swallowed them whole.In the magical world, the gate vanished behind them like it had never been there. But the storm of wind and dust still raged on the other side.Back in the battle, Sadi stood his ground.He could feel it—Drakari was charging up, gathering the full force of its fire power.He didn’t have much time.If fire was rising, he had only one choice—water.And ice.Drakari’s massive form loomed over him. The beast’s red eyes locked onto Sadi, filled with rage. Flames curled from its nostrils.Sadi took a deep breath, closed
