2026-06-11 18:57:10An endless sea of darkness stretched in every direction. Julius couldn't move, neither could he speak and he couldn't feel his body.
The last thing he remembered were the Titan, the glowing mark on his forehead and the terrifying voice that said “you have finally awakened”
Then there was a flash of light that appeared.
Juliet immediately shielded his eyes. The darkness shattered like glass and broke the entire void.
He found himself standing somewhere else. His eyes widened, it was an ancient battlefield stretched beyond the horizon. The sky was red, the mountain was burnt and there were thousands of soldiers on the ground. Some were fighting, some were fleeing, some were dead.
AThe smell of smoke and blood filled the air.
"What is this place?" Julius whispered.
No answer came.
He slowly walked forward.
The battlefield seemed frozen in time, everything felt real, Then the ground suddenly trembled.
GBIMGBIM
Julius turned, his entire body froze.
There were hundreds of the Gigantic creatures on the battlefield.
One Titan stood so high that its head disappeared into the clouds.
The soldiers below looked like ants, Julius cloud only state. His legs felt weak.
“This was impossible” he murmured
“How could anyone fight creatures like that?”
Then something else caught his attention.
The humans. They weren't ordinary soldiers. Golden energy flowed around their bodies, likewise their weapons.
Their armor shimmered with strange symbols.
One warrior leaped hundreds of feet into the air and sliced through a Titan's arm. Another summoned pillars of fire from the ground, the third created a massive shield of light.
Julius watched in amazement.
"They're fighting back..."
For the first time, humanity didn't look helpless. Yet they were losing, despite their strength cos Titan kept coming to them.
The battlefield became a slaughterhouse.
Suddenly a voice echoed behind him.
"Do you understand now?"
Julius spun around.
A man stood several feet away.
He looked young,perhaps in his twenties.
Silver hair, golden eyes.
A black cloak moved gently behind him.
The strange thing was that nobody else seemed able to see him.
The warriors ignored him likewise the Titans.
It was as if he existed outside reality itself.
Julius took a step back
"Who are you?"
The man smiled faintly.
"I could ask you the same question."
"What?"
The stranger slowly approached.
His eyes never left Julius.
"You carry the mark."
Julius immediately touched his forehead.
The stranger nodded.
"Exactly."
The mark suddenly burned beneath Julius' skin.
"What is this thing?"
The man's expression became serious.
"The last key."
Julius frowned.
"I don't understand."
"Of course you don't."
The stranger turned toward the battlefield.
"Because your world has forgotten."
For a moment neither spoke.
The sounds of war echoed around them.
The Explosion, Roars and the Screams.
Then the stranger pointed toward the largest Titan.Julius followed his gaze.
The giant creature was unlike the others.
Its body was covered in glowing golden symbols.
Its eyes burned like miniature suns, Every step shattered the earth.
Fear crawled into Julius' chest.
"What is that?"
The stranger's face darkened.
"The Titan King."
The words felt heavy.
"The ruler of all Titans."
Julius swallowed.
Even from miles away, he could feel its overwhelming presence, then he noticed something strange.
A human stood before the Titan King.
Just one person.
One man facing a monster larger than mountains.
The silver-haired stranger smiled.
"Watch carefully."
The lone warrior raised his sword.
Golden light erupted from his body.
The sky itself seemed to split apart, lightning covered the battlefield.
The Titan King roared,the warrior charged and the world exploded.
Julius instinctively closed his eyes
***
He opened his eyes again.
The battlefield was gone, likewise the Titans and the stranger.
The stranger was gone, left with the darkness and his voice had returned as well.
"The seal has broken and the Titans awakened. So it must be you?”
He heard the voice as he opened his eyes.
The students gasped.
Deen Carl barely finished his statement when the section of the wall collapsed, shaking the entire building rigorously.
Dust filled the air and they needed not to be told that the Titans are here.
People fled through the street, the soldiers were on standby but they looked tiny compared to the Titans.
Students screamed again.
Then something impossible happened.
The Titan stopped moving completely.
Its golden eyes slowly shifted, searching for something. Almost as if it was trying to find someone.
Then its gaze locked onto the academy, onto the Grand Hall and onto Jukiis.
"No..."
The Titan took one step forward.
GBIM
The city shook, then another step.
Buildings cracked, students screamed louder.
Then the Titan spoke.
A deep voice echoed across the entire kingdom, sounding powerful, yet every person heard it clearly.
"Bearer..."
The city fell silent.
Even the soldiers stopped moving.
The Titan's eyes glowed brighter.
"Come forth."
Julius froze.
His mind went blank.
The Titan wasn't speaking to everyone, It was speaking to him.
The mark on his forehead suddenly blazed with golden light.
Students nearby noticed.
One pointed at him.
"His head!"
"What is that?!"
"It's glowing!"
More students turned.
Soon everyone was staring. The hall became silent.
The Deen stared “I said it!”
And for the first time since arriving at the academy, nobody was laughing.
The Deen slowly stepped forward.
His eyes were fixed on Julius.
A mixture of disbelief and fear crossed his face.
"That mark..."
The old man's voice shook.
"No."
Julius felt a terrible feeling forming in his stomach.
The Deen looked as though he had seen a ghost.
"What is it?" Julius asked.
The Deen whispered something.
At first nobody heard him.
Then he repeated it.
Louder.
"The Mark of Sovereignty."
The hall instantly exploded with confusion.
"The what?"
"What does that mean?"
"What's happening?"
The Deen ignored them.
His eyes never left Julius.
"The mark was supposed to be lost forever."
Julius stared.
"I don't understand."
The Deen looked toward the approaching Titan.
Fear filled his face. He had felt it but hoped he was wrong.
Th
en he spoke the words that changed Julius' life forever.
"The Titans aren't here to destroy the kingdom."
Silence filled the hall.
The Deen's hands trembled.
"They came for you."

Complicated Choice 2
Julius released his power, gor one terrifying moment, nothing happened. The ancient woman watched him with the same calm expression, almost as though she had been waiting for this exact decision. Around them, the First World remained frozen in the middle of its attack. Gabriel was still on one knee, blood spreading from the black wound across his chest, Adrian struggled to keep him conscious while Dark Julius leaned heavily against a broken structure, his breathing uneven. Cael's hand was pressed against the wound in his chest, and even Kael had been forced down onto one knee. Noah was the only one Julius had managed to completely shield but Julius could feel all of them. Their pain, fear, fading strength and something else.The First World was trying to make him believe that saving everyone was impossible.Julius closed his eyes, “No”The word was quiet, but the world heard i, “I don't accept that”The ancient woman frowned, “You cannot deny the structure of this place”“I've denied
Delicated Situation
The moment Julius stepped into the First World, he knew something was wrong.There was no welcoming silence. No strange cosmic light or anything ancient voice explaining what they had entered, there was only pain.Julius stopped so abruptly that Kael nearly walked into him, “Don’t move”Adrian looked around, then asked, “what is it?”Julius didn't answer immediately. He could feel something beneath his feet. It was not an energy, not magic, just a heartbeat which was slow, massive and disturbingly familiar.The ground beneath them pulsed once and the entire group was thrown apart. Julius managed to remain standing, but Gabriel was hurled several meters across the strange white landscape and crashed against a wall that had not existed a second earlier.“Gabriel!” Adrian rushed toward him.Gabriel tried to stand, but his left leg buckled beneath him“I'm fine,” he muttered through clenched teeth.“You're bleeding” Adrian murmuredGabriel looked down, he saw a thin black line had appeare
Trust
Everyone else seemed ready to leave the collapsing realm, but he remained where he was, his eyes fixed on Cael.“Before we go anywhere, there is something we need to settle” Julius said,Cael looked at him, while Julius continues and mentioned, “Trust”The word immediately changed the atmosphere. Noah stood beside Julius while Adrian and Gabriel exchanged a glance. Dark Julius folded his arms, clearly interested in what was about to happen, even Kael remained silent.Julius continued, “You expect me to walk into the heart of the First World with someone who spent thousands of years trapped inside the First Consciousness and suddenly decided to help me”Cael's expression didn't change, “That's fair”“You know things about me that I didn't know about myself, you knew about Noah, you knew about the Origin” “Yes” Cael responded Julius took a step closer, “And yet you never told me” Julius added.Cael didn't answer immediately, Julius's voice became colder, “So give me one reason I shoul
Cael and Julius
“You were created for a reason” The shadow's words lingered in Julius's mind.He stood several meters away from the being that had taken his face, studying it without revealing what was going through his mind. Around them, the battle had nearly stopped. Adrian and Gabriel had gathered near Kael, while Dark Julius kept Noah close even the First Queen had lowered her weapon, everyone was listening.Julius finally spoke, “Then tell me the reason”The shadow smiled, “Not here”Julius's eyes narrowed, “You're the one who came looking for me, you don't get to decide where this conversation happens”“I don't need to” The shadow raised its hand, the battlefield disappeared and there was no explosionx no flash of light, just one moment they were standing among the ruins, and the next Julius found himself somewhere completely different.He stood in an endless white space, no ground, sky, horizon, the others were gone but the shadow remained.Julius looked around, “You separated me from my famil
Another Julius
The darkness that had swallowed the sky did not behave like ordinary darkness. It had no stars, no clouds, and no visible boundary. It simply replaced everything above the Forgotten City, leaving the battlefield beneath it in an unnatural silence.Julius stood with Noah beside him, watching the enormous white eye beneath the ruined city. For once, Julius did not immediately attack. There was something different about this presence, he had faced gods who believed themselves immortal, ancient beings who had existed before entire civilizations, and creatures capable of tearing dimensions apart. He had fought versions of himself born from realities that should never have existed.The thing beneath the First World wasn't merely powerful. It was ancient in a way that made the word ancient feel meaningless, had existed before the laws of time, before space, before the concept of power itself and yet Julius could still feel its limits, that was what interested him as everything had limits.Ev
Mother
“I am your mother” The words echoed across the battlefield. For several seconds, nobody moved even the armies that had been fighting moments earlier stood frozen.Julius stared at Noah, the boy was trembling violently in his arms, “Father”His voice was barely audible, “Make her stop”Julius placed one hand against Noah's back, “You're safe”“No” The voice came from Noah again but this time, it wasn't Noah speaking, “You cannot protect him from me”Julius's expression hardened. He reached into Noah's chest with his power, searching for the strange consciousness hidden inside him. The moment his power touched it, it exploded and Julius was thrown backward. He crashed through several ancient buildings before finally stopping, “Julius!”Kael's voice echoed across the battlefield.Julius stood slowly. For the first time, blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.Adrian stared, murmuring, “She actually hurt him”Gabriel's expression became serious, “Not exactly”He looked toward Noah, “
