Martin looked at the light bracelet on his left wrist. The bracelet looked unremarkable. There is nothing unusual after he uses it. 

"So, until Ragnarok is over, I can't give this bracelet to anyone else?" asked Martin starting to feel anxious.

"No. And in addition to being a symbol of courage. The bracelet is also an affirmation, that registered fighters, are required to fight to the end. Otherwise, the bracelet will blow itself up. And during the 4 times Ragnarok was held, 23 fighters tried to escape from the fight. Those who run away, are not the weak. They are also very powerful. But of the 23 fighters, none survived the bracelet explosion. All dead and charred," Kyv said. 

Martin was more anxious than ever. In fact, he almost fell in shock at what he had just known. 

"Then, do I have to fight until one of them dies?" asked Martin to determine whether he could still survive or not. 

"To that question of yours, I will answer it. At the same time, I will explain any rules in Ragnarok," said Kyv.

After nearly 1 hour, Martin finally walked out of the spacecraft. He is a member of. His loyal troops waiting outside, immediately approached Martin with anxiety. Moreover, Martin came out of the spaceship with a bad face. 

"What's the matter? What's going on inside?" asked Alex, one of the soldiers closest to him. 

Martin showed the bracelet on his left hand. Everyone who surrounded him looked at the bracelet. Most soldiers were amazed by the color of the bracelet. Because it looks like a circular light. 

"What is this?" asked Alex. 

"This is Lois's bracelet. I was forced to wear it so I could dig up a lot of information about this Ragnarok," Martin replied.

"Then? Have you got a lot of information?" asked Alex. 

"yes, I got it. But, to get that information, I was forced to participate in the Ragnarok battle. And I can't let go of this bracelet until I fight." 

"Then, what kind of fight are they having?" 

"1 on 1. We can use any weapon, any trick. And the one who wins, is he who can kill his opponent. Or at least make the opponent give up or can't move anymore," Martin explained.

Alex chuckled at this. But not with other soldiers. They didn't dare to laugh dismissively like Alex did. 

"Then it will become easy for us. We can indeed. It doesn't matter how strong our opponents are. And if you are afraid of fighting alone, I will also sign up to accompany you. Later we can go crazy like before. Like when we can burn cities," Alex said then walked to the space center to register.

Some soldiers who have a high spirit of nationalism are also about to follow Alex. But Martin forbade it. 

"Don't be careless. We must not make arbitrary decisions. This concerns the safety of our planet! We have to discuss this with the superiors first. Let them decide whether we will be chosen to be the fighters in Ragnarok. Or someone else," Martin said. 

Alex, who had just taken 4 steps, immediately obeyed Martin's order and returned.

The sun had already set when Cecilia and Aji sat together on the balcony. The cold night air, and the twinkling stars are sprinkling. Make both of them feel calm and at home while there.

"About 8,000 years ago this planet was called Xyroz," Cecilia said, her eyes looking at the stars. 

"A beautiful planet with predominantly blue and green colors. 60 percent of the planet is landmass. Life in those days, was very peaceful and serene. There is almost no infighting between people. Making life in that era like in heaven. Natural resources are also very abundant. The sea, the lake, filled with various types of fish. Clean air everywhere. The diversity of fauna and flora is also very many and diverse. Making the people of that era live prosperously. To the extent that I once thought that this world would be happy forever. And it won't be able to change it all. But, can anyone be immortal in this world? Of course there will never be. All in the world, there will be a time. There will be limits. And it really happened," Cecilia continued. 

"What happened?" asked Aji.

"I had a dream," Cecilia replied.

"Dream? What dream?" asked Aji curiously.

"What a nightmare. I saw flames everywhere. People's houses were razed to the ground. The mountains spit out the contents of his stomach. Bodies lay on every section of the road. There were no signs of life. Humans, animals, plants die. The sea water is dry." 

"It was the worst nightmare I've ever had. When I woke up with a passionate breath, I thought dreams were just dreams. It's nothing more than a sleeping flower. But since having that dream, this heart has always been shrouded in uneasy feelings. It's as if something big scary is about to happen. And it turned out to be true, the bad thing happened."

"Just like this morning. Originally appeared the face of a monster in the sky. Then tell us things we don't understand. So we all ignored the warning. And assume that the appearance in the sky is just the devil's doing. So what we did at that time was to perform rituals to protect ourselves from demonic evil. In the next 39 days, nothing happened, other than the earthquake waves that we felt at first glance on the second day. It was only an earthquake with a very small scale. We hardly even felt the earthquake. And as it entered the 40th day since the monster's face appeared in the sky. Suddenly, millions of monsters with huge bodies came from all over. They have sinister faces. They carried various weapons and attacked anyone they could meet. They killed everyone blindly. Merciless, merciless. Old young, big small. All they killed. Of course at that time we put up a fight. But there wasn't much we could do. Let alone to kill hundreds or thousands of monsters. To kill just one monster, it took 1000 warriors' lives until we finally managed to kill one monster. And with the number of our troops, which is no more than 50,000. It made us completely slaughtered."

"Then, how did this planet still exist if indeed at that time this planet was destroyed?" asked Aji in surprise.

The look in Cecilia's eyes dimmed slightly when Aji asked that.

"Maybe, because I prayed. I don't know, I don't really remember the events of that time. All I remember, after I prayed to the god with hope and a desperate soul in the temple. Something happened. And just then, you showed up."

"Me?" said Aji in surprise.

Cecilia nodded and smiled faintly. 

"And valiantly, you managed to repel them. And at the end of the day, Xyroz is safe," Cecilia said. 

Aji fell silent after hearing the story from Cecilia. He then looked at his hands. As if, not believing what Cecilia was telling.

"I managed to kill millions of monsters? Was I that strong at that time?" 

"Of course. And I'm sure, you'll be able to protect the planet again. Just like before," Cecilia said with a smile. 

Aji was silent while looking at Cecilia's smiling face towards him. Although Cecilia said like. But in his heart, Aji still doubted. Himself, who is always trampled on, is not sure that he can protect the earth.

  • The Bargain

    4 Days passed. Aji's health has fully recovered. The same goes for Aira. She has recovered. However, both of her hands have not been able to function again. Of course, Aira's hands were not damaged or injured. Both hands can be said to be healthy. However, her hands have no shadow. That's why Aira's hands didn't work. And because of this, the medical staff who treated Aira, came to Aji two days earlier. They wanted Aji to restore Aira's hands to function again.But when the medics asked Aji, Skotd was weak and could not be questioned. Because only Skotd knew the technique. And most likely, only Skotd can help. So right when Aji was fully recovered, she immediately went to where Aira was."Skotd, please restore both of Aira's hands. She can't compete if both hands aren't working," Aji pleaded through the Boundary room."I just woke up and you're asking for something impossible. Have you lost your mind?" Skotd replied lazily. Hearing that, Aji was a little surprised. But he still thoug

  • A Tantalizing Offer

    Venus stood in front of Aji's recovery room. She wanted to go in but she was hesitant. For some reason she felt that her intention would disturb Aji. "Will it be another time? He and I aren't that close anyway. Why would I visit him?" Venus muttered.With that in mind, Venus was about to leave. But she had not gone far. The door to the recovery room opened. Suddenly Venus turned her head in that direction. She thought it was the doctor on duty. So she wanted to ask the doctor to find out Aji's condition. But Venus was quite surprised because it was not a doctor she found. Instead, it was a woman with a beautiful and gentle face. "Who is she?" muttered Venus.The woman, who was Cecilia, looked at Venus as well. She recognized Venus quite well. Because she had seen Venus in battle several times. "Do you have anything to do with Aji?" asked Cecilia. She became so defensive when she saw Venus. Because Venus would be Aji's opponent in the final round. "Not really. I actually want to vi

  • A Visit

    Aji opened her eyes. Her breathing felt heavy. So was her body. He could not move his body at all. Even moving his fingers was difficult. "Where is this? Why do I feel so weak?" complained Aji. "You're being treated," replied someone whose voice he recognized.Aji looked to his left. And he saw Cecilia sitting there alone."Ceci-stop your trickery! I can no longer lie to you!" Aji snapped at Cecilia. He suspected that Cecilia's figure was Queen Nebula who was changing her form to look like Cecilia. So that she can deceive and do inappropriate things.Cecilia put on a confused face. She did not understand why Aji suddenly snapped at her."What's wrong with you?" asked Cecilia with a confused look on her face. "No need to pretend! I'll say it again! I won't be fooled a second time! My feelings! My love! Only for Cecilia! You can't force me to love you! Your love is just a fake anyway! You just want to make me your puppet!" Aji grumbled again.Cecilia was stunned to hear it all. Her f

  • Aji Vs Aira (part 4)

    Aira was quite panicked. But she quickly calmed herself down so she wouldn't get carried away. Because if that happened, she would be easier to defeat. Aira tried to move her left hand. But her left hand was completely immobilized. "What did he just do?" Aira kept her guard up. She didn't want to miss again. "From above!" Skotd's voice rang out again.Aira looked up. She actually saw Skotd plunge from above. But strangely, the gamma rays she emitted could not capture Skotd's movements. It wasn't until Skotd made a sound that Aira knew Skotd's position. In slow motion. Aira felt that Skotd was trying to play a trick on her. "He really underestimated me! I'll make him disappointed!" Aira determined.Within reach, the two clashed swords. With her great strength, Aira swung her sword hard. "Die!" cried Aira.But when the two swords met, they didn't hit each other. Skotd's sword pierced through Aira's sword instead. With her eyes, Aira could see how Skotd's sword penetrated hers. An

  • Aji Vs Aira (part 3)

    Aji was breathing heavily. The only ability she could rely on was her shadow shield. However, even though he had used one of his defense techniques. Still, Aira could still attack. Because the impact of Aira's attack was much greater than before. Even Aji still had to dodge to reduce the direct impact of Aira's attack."She's really perfect. She has incredible strength and speed. Moreover, she has very troublesome eyes. No matter what she shoots, if those eyes are active it's impossible to miss," Aji thought. "You're right. And with this ability, she excels in one-on-one combat," said Skotd. "Do you have any other ideas?" Aji asked. Skotd frowned. "Why do you always ask me for ideas? Look, my contribution is already huge. You've consumed at least 3 percent of my power. Use that brain of yours to think," Skotd said. "I still can't read. How can I read a situation like this? Besides, you have more experience than me. So help me!" Aji exclaimed.Skotd chuckled in annoyance."You are

  • Aji Vs Aira (part 2)

    Aira continued to shoot at Aji relentlessly. It was as if the bullets Aira fired were endless. Aji, who was struggling, could only hold on and make sure his body wasn't pushed further back. "It's not funny if I lose because of an attack like this!" Aji thought.Aji immediately looked for a way out. He didn't want to be Aira's bullshit. But after Aji thought for a while he couldn't find a way out. Many of the shadow techniques he mastered were ineffective against Aira. "The only way to beat her is with speed. You need to be one level ahead of Aira's bullet speed," Skotd said. "Well, that's easy enough to say but impossible to do! There's no way I can increase my speed in such a short time, right?" retorted Aji."That's true. But there is a way," said Skotd. Aji furrowed her brow. She wondered how to increase her speed in a short period of time."How?""Swapping body parts," Skotd replied. Aji was increasingly unable to understand Skotd's too-brief explanation."Tell me clearly.
