Laith and his brother Hazim were at home. Hazim was determined to teach him math, but the two of them were hitting a wall, literally.

Finally, Hazim gave up. "That’s it, I’m calling Malik."

Laith panicked. "NO! ANYONE BUT MALIK! He’ll bore me to death!"

Hazim sighed. "What other choice do we have? Neither of us understands math, and your exam is tomorrow. You’ve skipped class all year, if we don’t get Malik, you’ll fail!"

Ignoring Laith’s protests, Hazim called Malik. Laith tried to bolt, but Hazim grabbed him, smacked him lightly, and locked him in his room. "Do whatever it takes," he told Malik when he arrived "Just make sure he passes."

Malik walked in, cracked his knuckles, and began the lesson, his voice booming, his patience thin. Two hours later, he emerged, exhausted. "I tried everything,"he told Hazim. "Your brother’s case is hopeless."

Hazim walked into Laith’s room after Malik left. "What happened?! Why is everything destroyed?! Where’s the desk?!"

    Malik sat at his desk in the quiet classroom, grading papers with a tired sigh. The scratch of his pen was the only sound until Mahmoud, one of his failing students, who already knew his fate leaned forward, trying to distract him before his own paper came up. "Sir,"Mahmoud began, a mischievous glint in his eye, "how did you become one of the knights?"Malik didn’t even look up. "None of your business. Focus on your lessons.""But we already finished the lesson," Mahmoud pressed "You’re just grading now. What’s the harm in telling me?"Another student chimed in, grinning. "We follow Fadi on social media! There are so many cool videos of you fighting ghouls. The best one was when you took out ten at once with your giant fan!"Malik finally lifted his gaze, unamused. "If you don’t solve the problem I gave you before the bell rings, I’ll send you flying just like them."The class fell silent, except for Mahmoud, who refused to give up, he crossed his arms and said "I’m asking because I

  • Chapter 81, Wide Awake.

    Marwan handed the criminals over to the police, giving them a firm warning. "Keep an eye on the short blond guy," he said. "he’s not someone you can underestimate. He’s probably the mastermind behind all the trouble."With that, he climbed onto his bike and rode home, exhaustion weighing on him. But sleep brought no relief only the same disturbing dreams, leaving him restless and unable to find peace. The next day, Marwan was back in the training yard, his movements sharp despite the fatigue. Ali watched him for a moment before shaking his head."You’re seriously not normal," Ali said. "Yesterday, you came back from a tough mission in the desert, and today you’re training like it’s nothing? Don’t you ever get tired?"Marwan didn’t pause, his fists striking the heavy bag with steady rhythm. "Instead of standing there complaining,"he replied, "come train with me. I’ll teach you something useful."Ali hesitated. "I wish, but you look pissed off, like you just want to take it out on me

  • Chapter 80, The Oasis Showdown

    The scorching sun beat down on the desert oasis, casting long shadows over the palm trees. A hot wind stirred the sand, whispering through the silence. In the center of the clearing, Marwan stood like a vengeful sentinel, his grip tight on the ropes binding the gang members. They knelt in the dirt, their faces a mix of defiance and fear. Behind them, the vast expanse of the desert stretched endlessly, a sea of gold under the merciless sky. The gang’s leader a towering brute with a scar running down his cheek glared up at Marwan. His voice was a low growl, laced with arrogance. "Don’t overestimate yourselves. Even if you arrest us, we’ll get out on bail like always."Marwan’s eyes darkened. He leaned in, his voice a blade of ice. "Shut up, or I’ll shut you up myself."* The giant fell silent, but his glare burned with unspoken threats. The tension in the air thickened, pressing down like a storm about to break. The smaller man, with sharp eyes that darted like a rat’s cleared

  • Chapter 79, Under The Glaring Sun.

    Marwan slowed his motorbike to a halt, the engine’s growl fading into the vast silence of the desert. He wiped the sweat from his brow, squinting against the relentless sun as he scanned the horizon. Nothing but endless sand stretched before him, shimmering under the heat. What was I even looking for? he wondered, his thoughts sluggish from the scorching air. With a sigh, he turned the bike around, deciding to head back home before the desert swallowed him whole. Then a sound. Faint, but unmistakable. A whisper of movement, something out of place in this barren expanse. Marwan hesitated, then turned his bike toward the noise, curiosity pulling him forward. Minutes later, an oasis emerged like a mirage, a small pool of clear water surrounded by swaying palm trees. Relief washed over him as he cut the engine and dismounted. His throat was parched, his water bottle nearly empty. Kneeling by the water’s edge, he refilled it, the cool liquid a blessing against his cracked lips. Exh

  • Chapter 78, Beyond The Barrier.

    Marwan had been haunted by nightmares for a week. Each night, he relived the same horror, visions of himself as a child, sprinting through a burning city, surrounded by screams as ghouls tore through the streets. Every time, he would wake in a cold sweat, his heart pounding. Sleep never returned to him after that. He would lie there, staring at the ceiling, exhaustion weighing on him like a second skin. On the seventh night, he finally decided to seek help. Haitham’s office was quiet, The therapist of their team sat across from Marwan, his expression calm but attentive. "You look exhausted," Haitham observed, pouring a glass of water and sliding it toward him. "How long has it been since you slept properly?"Marwan ran a hand through his hair, his voice rough. "A week. Every time I close my eyes, I see it again.""Tell me," Haitham said gently. Marwan took a slow breath. "I’m a kid again. Running through the ruins. Ghouls everywhere. People screaming. Then I go into our house.

  • Chapter 77, The Field Ghoul.

    The sun hung low over the olive groves, casting long shadows across the scorched earth. Smoke curled into the sky, a grim reminder of the fires that had plagued the village for days. Ali adjusted the strap of his pack, his sharp eyes scanning the horizon. Beside him, Karim checked his dagger, its blade glinting in the fading light. Fadi, ever the strategist, unfolded a worn map, tracing their path with a calloused finger. “This isn’t just a wildfire,” Fadi muttered. “Something’s keeping it alive.” Karim smirked. “You think it’s really a ghoul? Sounds like an old tale.” Ali exhaled sharply. “Tell that to the farmers who’ve lost everything. The firefighters couldn’t stop it, what does that leave?” The three knights had been sent after Laith’s sudden departure to rehab and Hitham’s extended leave. The remaining team had been stretched thin, but Karim and Fadi had risen to the challenge, their skills sharpening with each mission. Now, they stood at the edge of a mystery that defie
