The air between Master Sung and the four black-marked beasts that had descended from the portal was thick and tense, so much that it would be best referred to as oppressive. Everyone remained locked in a silent standoff, their gazes fixed on opponents whose very presence chilled the air.

The silence stretched on, each second feeling like an hour. Brok could hear his own heartbeat thundering in his ears so loudly he was convinced everyone else could hear it too.

Mara found herself unconsciously holding her breath, only releasing it in short, controlled bursts when her lungs couldn't hold it anymore.

Leo, however, could feel his legs shaking ever so slightly. His palms were sweating so much that he had to keep wiping them on his pants, leaving dark stains of wetness on them.

The Luo techniques flowing through her body should have made her feel confident, powerful even, and with Sen and Master Sung by her side, she should have felt a bit more confidence, but unfortunately...

Even Sen did

    The walk to the Nakamura family mansion wasn't so long... No, not really. That was a lie Satoru told himself every time he made this journey. The truth was, the walk was like an endless trek, but it felt like mere moments when Yuki was there beside him, chattering away with no care in the world and laughing like he knew nothing bad about where they were headed. "Remember that time we tried to build a structure just like the family mansion?" Yuki was saying, gesturing wildly with his hands. "And we thought all that was used for building were clay and water?" How could I forget? Satoru smiled brightly. We nearly died; we were just four after all. We spent a hell of a lot of time, Satoru stressed, as if he was re-experiencing the whole moment. "It would have been less time consuming if you hadn't kept on pestering me with your stupid talk." I still feel like I wasted a portion of my life on that till today. "Heyyy!" Yuki screamed, his head steaming. "My talk isn't stupid!" "Yes it

    Saturday, August 2nd, 2005. Tokyo city, Japan. The morning sun cast long shadows across the bustling streets of Tokyo. The city was bustling with several million people, each hurrying toward their own destination, dressed decently and respectably. Yet among this sea of people, one figure stood apart like a sore thumb. A young boy, no more than ten years old, struggled against the weight of what appeared to be too heavy for his small size; however, he surprisingly could move it. His clothes, that were once probably shades of blue, had faded to a brown color, patched and re-patched at different angles. The shirt hung loose on his thin shoulders, too large for his questionably slender frame, as if he got it from some charitable individual or perhaps, a dumpster. The cart he dragged behind him was sticking out just like him, given that such was becoming rare these days. It was a wooden box designed for horses, with iron wheels that were already rusty. It groaned with each rotati

    Meanwhile, Ryomen, still carrying Zhou on his back and clearly struggling with his own emotions about the night's events, approached the group with an expression that was simultaneously angry and filled with genuine concern. "Is no one going to check up on Zhou?" Ryomen questioned with barely controlled anger, his voice carrying the weight of someone who felt his friend was being unfairly overlooked. "Oh, right, right," Brok responded immediately, recognizing the justice in Ryomen's complaint and feeling somewhat embarrassed that he had needed the reminder. Without hesitation, he rushed forward to assist with Zhou's care, his movements quick and purposeful as he prepared to assess his superior's condition. He had never learned medical training, but he had lived quite a rough life back then as an agent for the underling tournament, so he knew some basic life hacks. But as Brok approached Zhou's unconscious form, something completely unexpected happened. Zhou's eyes sudden

    Just the moment Draki and Valachi disappeared from the face of planet Terra, vanishing into the void that connected realms through their resignation technique and straight to where they came from, Ryder suddenly arrived at the exact location where they had been standing mere seconds before. The timing was almost perfect—if he had arrived just a heartbeat earlier, the outcome might have been entirely different. But fate, it seemed, had its own way. Ryder moved with that same terrifying fluidity that had characterized his transformation, each step covering impossible distances as he traversed the devastated landscape. His movements remained unnaturally smooth, and his legs were barely being stretched throughout his movement. The purple lightning that had been dancing around his form throughout his rampage continued to crackle with violent intensity that was oddly constant. Upon reaching the exact spot where Valachi and Draki had stood before their escape, Ryder came to an abrupt ha

    Finally, Valachi mustered enough force to blast himself far enough to break free from the immediate surroundings of Ryder's oppressive presence.So far that he could no longer feel Ryder's aura as suffocating as it had been, no longer sense those casual footsteps maintaining perfect pace behind him.His body coursed through the air with tremendous force, covering miles of devastated landscape in seconds as he aimed for the battlefield where he knew the double-headed dragon was engaged in combat.The plan was simple—regroup with his most powerful ally, and escape this nightmare scenario before Ryder could close the distance again.He arrived at the battlefield just as the impossible had happened, just as reality delivered another devastating blow to his understanding of what humans should be capable of.He saw a bright red light, definitely the flame of the double-headed dragon, extinguishing just after it had burned off whatever it wanted to.What should have been two magnificent head

    ***"CHANGE OF PLANS! WE HAVE TO RETREAT!"***A voice roared across the battlefield with such desperate urgency that it cut through even the overwhelming presence of Draki's gathered power. The sound carried for miles, reaching Draki with crystal clarity.Just as Draki was about to unleash the accumulated energy that would have reduced Mikasa and Akira to history, a loud voice resonated throughout the clear, silent expanse of the wasteland that was once the Red Eastern Guild base.It was unmistakably Valachi's voice, but transformed by terror into something barely recognizable. The arrogant confidence that had defined Valachi was completely gone, replaced by raw fear that made his words crack.Valachi wasn't just calling for a tactical withdrawal or something along those lines—he was screaming for them to run for their lives, to abandon all their dignity in favor of immediate survival.Akira and Mikasa, frozen as they were, weren't able to detect the subtleties of the sound. Their para
