Xal'Thar let a laugh that didn't seem funny escape his lips, for Max, that laugh was extremely cruel, cold and resonated with a kind of disturbing energy for him. Max, who was still keeping his guard up, felt a huge chill run down his spine. He had a feeling that something was not right. Xal'Thar did not seem defeated, he did not even seem to feel dejected by the loss of his guardians. In fact, his laugh was that of someone who claimed that he had just executed the last part of a carefully laid plan."Yes, you are very optimistic. Do you really think this is over, Max?", said the alien, with his voice low but full of malevolence that was heard loudly due to the emptiness that accompanied them in that place. — I don't mind losing those puppets. What you don't understand is that your children are already mine. They are not yours or your wife's. Now, they belong to me, and I will never return them to you.Max felt the greatest pain take over his body, his heart stopped for an instant. Hi

The warrior staggered, each breath a catatonic effort for him. Cold sweat covered his forehead. The distorted landscape before him did not help him think things through clearly and know what to do at that moment. From the shadows a figure emerged that made him shudder to the bone. That creature was also something Max was never prepared to face in battle.This figure painted a skin covered in shiny black scales, its red eyes burned very brightly, and in his hands, claws extended so long that it seemed they could tear reality itself. It was the last and most lethal envoy of Xal'Thar, an entity that promised to end everything, create chaos, and cause the end.His ring continued to shine, and it was there that Max closed his eyes, he asked the ring to transform into a lethally powerful weapon that could serve as a defense to finish off that enemy without it ending up finishing him off. His wishes were orders, and Max gripped the strong, imposing sword that was drawn in his hand.The beast

After listening to everything, the warrior felt that a powerful energy emerged from within him and ran through his entire body. It was a force that came not only from the love for his children, but also from the loyalty that the Guardians felt towards him, and the unconditional support from Selene. He knew that this mission would be the most dangerous, one of the strongest and most unpredictable of all time. Something deep inside him told him that this could be the destiny of his children, that it depended on this new opportunity for them to survive and return to them without having any intention of ever leaving them again."Max... I have to talk to you, alone. "It's very important that we talk before this battle," Lyra objected, looking at Max very seriously.The Guardians looked at each other, and decided to walk away before Lyra could ask them to leave. Max looked at Selene when he heard Lyra, Selene nodded, gave him a kiss very close to the corner of her mouth, and left the bed

At that moment, Max let silence fill the air after Lyra's last words. He had never before been as angry as he was now. There is a completely palpable tension between the two, a tension that at first glance reflected that a fight had occurred between them from which there would be no way back to solve it, it seems that between them, the friendship and trust has been a flame of fire. that has been turned off. However, they both knew that for now they couldn't let his anger control him, the most important thing of the moment was at stake; rescue his children, the heirs of the warrior, Max. He turned slowly, turning his back to Lyra, in her head, there was no room for the idea of ​​wanting to look into her eyes anymore after all. "Lyra," he said with firmness in her voice, but feeling a little calmer than before, "I want you to leave me alone." I need to talk to Selene before we take any further steps. Could you?Then, Lyra obeyed, and knowing that there was nothing more to say for the

As soon as the celebration ended along with the bottle that they all drank, the Guardians made the decision to go to rest, since obviously, it is time to do so, they had not been able to fall asleep for many hours after the entire journey they lived to In Max's rescue, their energies are completely exhausted, for them they deserved a good rest. Along with the company of his wife, Max watched in silence as each of them retired to their respective rooms, moving away from the meeting room. He only accompanied them with a figure that remained in the room, isolated, silent and distant: Lyra.Max looked at her out of the corner of his eye, he still felt a powerful anger emanating from her body against her. And he was sure that, despite her betrayal, they still needed her for the plan to work, after all, she was still part of her family, and family is never abandoned in the most complicated moments. However, he was also aware that he could not allow her to roam freely. They couldn't take th
