“Ow! Who could it be?” murmured Paltio, groggy like his companions. Everyone seemed to drag their feet, except for Mok, who remained as alert as ever.

Toco-Toco, before disappearing, said:

“See you, meow,” and quickly slipped into Golden’s hologram, who then returned to Paltio’s seed.

The voice on the other side of the door persisted:

“Open the door, Prince. I’m here… or I’ll have to tell the guards to do it for me.”

“What’s all this racket about?” said Pax, appearing already clad in his armor. He strode toward the door and flung it open.

It was Opal, accompanied by several guards. Her imposing presence filled the doorway.

Paltio and the others scrambled to tidy themselves up to appear presentable, but Opal raised an eyebrow at them.

“It looks like a hurricane and a cat ran over you all,” she remarked with a half-ironic smile.

“Oh! Please forgive us, Opal,” said Mok, bowing slightly with his usual courtesy.

“No need to apologize,” replied Opal calmly, though her tone remained firm and

    “Very well, then let us begin,” said Mok as he emerged from his hiding place with elegance. With swift movements, he unfurled his knives in a fluid arc, forming a spinning bar that struck one of the guards, knocking him down instantly. The second guard, alerted to the danger, attempted to draw his sword to face the butler. But before he could complete the motion, Mok had already unsheathed his own blade and, with a precise slash, left the man incapacitated.Meloc, an unwilling witness to the scene, froze in panic. His body trembled as he watched the intruders move with lethal precision. Finally, unable to bear the tension, he collapsed unconscious onto the floor, a victim of the overwhelming fear gripping him.Elsewhere in the palace, a deep and authoritative voice echoed through the halls.“Tertrol! Tertrol!”The call was insistent, but there was no response. The voice rose again, this time laden with irritation.“TERTROL!”Suddenly, a furious face appeared projected on a nearby wall

    "He said ‘the ROOM,’" Ron whispered urgently."Yes, that’s what it seems. Lower your voice, or they’ll find us," Alita responded, quickly covering her friend’s mouth with her hand."So this is the ROOM… Then we were wrong; it wasn’t the dungeon," Paltio reflected, looking around with concern."It appears so, Master," Mok added, nodding slightly."But what are they doing to those people with that machine?" Alita asked, horrified by the screams of pain they heard."They’re despicable for making people suffer like this… And now they’re electrocuting them just to wake them up. They’re merciless," Paltio said helplessly from their hiding spot, watching as the cruel scientist unleashed his brutality without restraint."His name is Meloc," Toco-Toco interjected, drawing everyone’s attention."Do you know him?" Paltio asked, surprised."No, but I can hear everything. Remember, I have excellent hearing," the feline replied proudly.The scientist, still standing in front of the cells, continued

  • 9.Toco-Toco

    Paltio and his friends moved stealthily among the abandoned houses when they heard noises coming from what appeared to be a basement secured by rusted chains. Mok pulled out one of his knives and, without making a sound, cut through the chains blocking the entrance. When they opened the doors, everyone was stunned to discover a dark passageway emanating anguished sounds—like the cries of people in torment."Let’s go in," Paltio said with determination. "Someone must need help.""Hey, Paltio, but didn’t you want to search for the scepter piece?" Golden interjected, sounding somewhat concerned."Yes, but I can’t just leave someone in danger if I can do something about it. I’ll try to help," the prince responded without hesitation."Well, you’re noble, kid," Golden commented, though he thought to himself, I hope that doesn’t work against you in the future.They ventured carefully into the basement. Upon reaching the end of the path, they discovered it split into several dark tunnels."No

  • 8.Is the Task Complete?

    The monstrous creature exploded into a thousand pieces, leaving only its hind legs on the ground. Everyone present froze as they saw an unmoving figure before them, radiating a golden energy that seemed to vibrate in the air. The glow slowly faded, revealing Paltio.No one could believe it. He was alive. They looked at each other, wondering how he had managed to survive and, even more so, what that energy surrounding him was.Paltio raised his hand and gave a weak wave, but before he could say anything, his legs gave out. He fell forward, but Mok rushed to catch him just before he hit the ground."Master! What joy to see you're safe and alive!" exclaimed Mok, but Paltio didn’t respond.Mok pressed his ear to the boy’s chest and heard his heartbeat."It’s only fainting," he announced with relief.The others relaxed as well when they saw the copies of the monster begin to disappear. Pax took the opportunity to pull out a knife and extract the claws of the Oboros before the creature's bo

    "No, Paltio!" Mok shouted bitterly, his voice heavy with sorrow as he watched his young master being devoured by the Oboros."No, Paltio!" Alita repeated, her voice trembling."No, foolish Paltio… why did you do it?!" Ron exclaimed, tears filling his eyes."We need to leave," Pax said coldly. "There’s no salvation for him now. Besides, we’re surrounded by those beasts.""But there’s nowhere to go!" Alita and Ron responded in unison, seeing that copies of the monster had encircled them from all sides."It’s the real Oboros," Mok said, staring at the colossus that had swallowed his prince. If I destroy the prism, we’ll defeat them, the butler thought, consumed by the burning rage in his chest."Wait, butler," Pax warned. "Don’t let anger cloud your judgment."But Mok had already drawn his knives. With a swift motion, he hurled a hundred of them toward the real Oboros. However, before they could reach it, the copies stepped in front, taking the hits and multiplying instantly."Damn it!"
