London, UK.
Years 2017
John Alan is a hard-working man who has an 80-hour work week. In the afternoon, he works as a storekeeper for six hours, while the rest of the hours, he works as a waiter in a small bar until it closes at nine in the evening.
It s not for no reason that Alan did that. The 28-year-old man with a tall, skinny figure of about five feet nine inches and a tired face was forced to do it for economic reasons. He was so broke that he had to work hard to support his parents.
Alan's problems began with a fraud case that trapped his parents. They were so tempted by the promise of a quick investment that they dared to sacrifice everything. However, a disaster happened to the family. The person in charge of the investment disappeared without a word, carrying Alan's parents' money.
The amount reached one million pounds. Of course, this loss made Alan and his parents' lives so bad that even their food depended on Alan's work.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the number of bar customers was less than usual. Alan wasn't as tired as yesterday, who had to close at ten at night.
"Are you free tonight, Alan?" asked a woman, a regular customer at the bar where Alan worked.
"I have to go home soon. Someone is waiting for me," Alan replied.
The man began to take off his apron as he walked toward a room where the waiters kept their things. The woman continued to follow Alan. Some employees knew she was Sersi, a name as pretty as the woman looked.
The door to the locker room opened, revealing three male employees who had changed their clothes into casual suits. The eyes of the three men fell on Sersi; their red faces flushed with eyes widened in shock.
"I was going to invite you out for a drink," Sersi replied, Alan chuckling.
The man stood right in front of his personal locker. He opened it and started putting things like id cards, hats, and aprons.
"You know, I'm sick of the smell of bourbon," Alan said, looking annoyed that Sersi wouldn't give up on him.
"We can have something that—"
"Don't you understand?" asked Alan, interrupting Sersi rudely.
The atmosphere became so tense. The three men, none other than Alan's coworkers, had never seen the young man angry like that. As far as they knew, Alan was known for his friendly service and was full of smiles.
But what Alan was showing at the moment was far different from what they knew. Alan realized the conversation with Sersi was going to be long, so he asked his three partners to leave the locker room.
"What do you mean?" asked Sersi, her eyes turning sad from their initial enthusiasm.
"We've talked about a lot of things. You know how I am right now, don't you?" asked Alan, speaking in a high tone.
"I know. You don't have to worry. I'll pay for it this time," replied Sersi, turning sad into excited.
"I can't leave them unguarded. The increasing debt is making them depressed. I even saw my father about to commit suicide with a rope in his room," Alan explained.
He picked up his bag and looked at Sersi, cold and ignorant. Alan realized that Sersi had a crush on him, judging by her responses.
He was happy someone liked him, but Alan didn't have time for that. Debt, bank loans, and online loans had to be done in order to be free from the dangerous circle.
"So, you're not leaving because you must look after your parents?" asked Sersi. Alan nodded slowly.
He started walking towards the exit, opened it and stopped for a while beside Sersi. Their eyes did not glance at each other this time.
"I'm glad you always ask me out. However, this time. I apologize. I can't accept your invitation," Alan replied.
He quickly walked out of the locker room and said goodbye to all the bartenders who were still there. Sersi looked down sadly. She followed Alan's directions to return to her residence.
The distance between the bar and Alan's residence was not that far, only a few minute's walks. While walking, he kept thinking about what he had done to Sersi. In his opinion, Alan's words to that woman were quite rude to say.
Alan bought two of his parents' favorite hotdogs on the way home. They were always happy when they got food from Alan, especially his mother, who loved meat.
Alan kept walking until he saw the appearance of the apartment where he lived with his parents. He chose an apartment with full facilities because he wanted to save on daily expenses, such as cooking, bathing, etc.
Alan needed to do things like that in the meantime as he worked hard to pay off all the debts his parents had. It was only a few hundred pounds until Alan could be completely free.
He walked up the stairs, as he lived in a small apartment. It took about ten minutes to reach the sixth floor; Alan lived in a sixth-floor apartment.
"They sure like the food I brought," Alan whispered.
Alan stood right in front of his apartment door. However, he felt something unusual coming from behind the door. Alan didn't hear anything; it was as quiet as the midnight hour.
He immediately opened the door and saw that his apartment was so dark, like no one in this place.
Alan tried to find the light switch in the darkness until he finally found it and started to turn it on. What a shock! Alan found his parents lying limply on the floor with pale faces and foaming at the mouth.
"DAD? MOM?!" shouted Alan.
The man's loud shout attracted the attention of Alan's apartment neighbors. They came out and entered Alan's apartment, seeing the terrible condition of the young man's parents.
"I'll call an ambulance," replied one of the women, the wife of Alan's neighbor.
Alan smelled an unpleasant scent, like a chemical. He tried to find the source of the scent until he found a bottle of rat poison lying on the ground with the lid clearly open.
"They... died by suicide," Alan said softly.
"Don't touch that, Alan. The police will detect your fingerprints there," replied the man next door.
Alan nodded as he sat listlessly. His eyes looked sadly at his parents, even though Alan had bought their favorite food.
The man next door immediately covered his parents' bodies with a cloth he got from his apartment. Right after their faces were covered, Alan burst into tears.
"I'm sorry, Alan," said the neighbor, grieving.
He walked over to Alan and patted him on the shoulder, trying to encourage him. The deaths of Alan's parents were caused by one thing: depression due to economic pressure.
All the problems in Alan's life were caused by those fraudsters. In Alan's mind, he wanted to take revenge on the fraudsters who had ruined his life.
"I will kill those people!"

So don't talk too much, Demon!” groaned the soldier who brought Arryn.“How many times have I told you that I'm not a demon? I'm just like you, a human."Pantheon's soldiers no longer answered Arryn's questions, although Arryn asked so many questions that it bore the soldiers.

Seen a city gate with walls surrounding the entire city. Above the gates and walls, hundreds of crows were seen perching.At first glance, the city's appearance becomes terrifying because the crow is synonymous with death. However, that didn't stop people from coming to the city."Are we in the right place?" Arryn asked Ivy."It seems so.

Erina didn't want to get into any further trouble with Eran. A magic portal opened up behind the woman's back, and her right hand could be seen stretching forward, causing Arryn to be lifted up. "The Justice Watcher may have lost in this place, but I will make sure the other Justice Watchers in other places will have a different fate," Erina said, speaking to Eran, whose right hand appeared to be blood red, the mark of Arryn's stomach wound. Together with Vera, Erina left the earth until the conditions in that place slowly began to settle. Emissaries helped the recovery process after the short battle. Although the duration of the fight was relatively short, the impact caused could not be taken lightly. "He won on a planet called Athanor. I'm afraid those people are trying to help every Justice Watcher in the entire universe," said Eran, shaking his right hand, trying to remove the blood that filled the man's palm.

"I haven't worn these clothes in a long time," said Arryn, amazed at the drastic change in his appearance.Goodbye simple clothes and black coats, hello suits and shirts. Arryn was genuinely excited to realize he had become part of the Earthlings, even though he had to admit that Arryn wasn't from Earth."For those who have been there, it won't feel strange when you put it on again," Sersi said."If you intend to take me to see Nicholas, does that mean you'll miss work?" asked Arryn, Sersi smiling broadly in her outfit."I don't mind missing a day of work. They'll understand my situation," replied Sersi.Arryn nodded, feeling happy her friend was willing to drive him, even though he looked different from John Alan she used to know.

Because of this strangeness, a police car arrived at the place where Arryn had come. Two police officers were seen aiming their guns at Arryn, making the man reflexively raise his hands."Don't move!" ordered one of the police officers."I haven't committed any crime," Arryn said, trying to speak to the police officers.Despite Arryn's words, the townspeople did not. They looked scared and anxious, and many took pictures of the incident and posted them on social media."Say all of that in our office," said the police officer, putting Arryn down by trying to handcuff the man's hands.To the officer's surprise, Arryn only had one hand, with burn marks on his face. In the end, both police hands appeared to be firmly grasping Arryn's body.

The fight was done; the war was over. Arryn walked up to Aurora. The man deactivated his fire armor magic. Aurora's eyes glazed over, happy the Armageddon war was over.Surprisingly, Aurora hugged Arryn's body and buried her face in the man's arms. Her heart couldn't hide her happiness. At last, she could live happily ever after together with Arryn."I'm glad this war is over," Aurora said, crying so happily that making Arryn's clothes wet."So am I. There's nothing to worry about," Arryn explained, his right hand gently rubbing Aurora's hair.Alexia smiled. She shook hands with Alen, who the three people never expected to be alive, "Is there anything else you're going to do this time, Alen?""Considering the situation here is over, maybe I will go to a different world to help Erina win this war," Alen replied.Arryn looked over, surprised to hear Alen was returning to deal with the war in a different world.

Without thinking, Arryn flew off with the help of two wings behind his back. He went to the west, where another battle was taking place between Alex and Alexia, Aurora, and Alen.After the battle against the demon army was over, the man wanted to end it all so there would be no more suffering in the land of Athanor. Still clad in his fire armor, Arryn traversed the forest half-destroyed by the freezing ice, with several demons still trapped in the ice.From afar, the tremor and gust of wind could be clearly felt. The battle between the two camps was no longer carried out in the sky but on a vast plain. After passing through the forest area, Arryn's eyes witnessed Alex being overwhelmed by three people.[Summoning System: Great Fire Pillar]A pillar of fire formed around the battle arena, causing Alex to gasp and realize he was surrounded.

Vera agreed to Erina's order. After all, they had to be woken up quickly to help the Athanor Army's fighting power. The goddess of nature turned her body around, walking on a glass path adorned with a gentle breeze full of leaves every step of the way.The charming woman arrived at the Garden of Life, standing right next to Arryn and Allen, who was lying on the grass. The foliage roots continued to wrap around their bodies. A green light was lit on each root to restore the two's body condition.Now, Arryn and Allen were fully recovered, perhaps even at the peak of their health to fight again. Vera crouched gracefully, making her beautiful dress appear to brush against the grass in her garden.Vera's delicate hands touched the garden soil, her eyes closed, and without any magic incantation, the roots wrapped around Arryn and Allen's bodies slowly began to unwind, giving way to a cool breeze that seemed to wake up the two men.The first thing Arryn saw when

Alexia flew quickly, leaving the central area of Ravengarden City to approach Alex. The two fought a great battle outside the south gate area of the city. Athanor's soldiers could not easily follow their battle's speed.Aurora, who finished defeating the centaurs, went to help Alexia defeat Alex. Using her trident spear, she kept attacking and looking for an opening for Alex to get hit.The three fought fiercely in the city sky. Every attack that Alex failed to hit or was parried by the man was directed elsewhere to cause significant damage.From within the forest in the southern region of Ravengarden, the roar of the demon army could be clearly heard. Followed by Athanor's mostly human warriors to fight, the numbers of the two differed greatly from each other; Athanor outnumbered the demon army.General Elvan, along with King Jean-Louis, were at the vanguard. Elvan was ready with his sword, while Jean-Louis would fight using his magical abilities.

***The next day."Wake up," said one of the Athanor Magus members.Not just one person, but all of them reminded each other. Alexia and the other mentors explained that today was the day they would have a big battle.The sun began to rise, the light illuminating the entire Ravengarden area filled with Athanor troops. They were ready early in the morning because, according to what King Jean-Louis had planned, the attack on the demon army's encampment would be done as early and fast as possible.Alexia was ready in her Justice Watcher uniform, as well as Aurora. Now, both were the center of attention and hoped for many people, not Arryn anymore.Aurora opened the door to Alexia's room, seeing her friend standing with both hands resting on the window frame, like a nervous person."Are you alright, Alexia?" asked Aurora.Alexia turned her head slowly, looking at Aurora, who had just arrived in her room wearing the same Justice Wat

Unification of Athanor's Forces
***Alexia went to the city government place, along with Aurora, Quentin, and Ivy, which was why they came. That afternoon, they planned to propose King Jean-Louis for a surprise attack on the Demon Army encampment, according to the intel provided by Ivy.She knew how strict her father was in making decisions. The middle-aged man had to think about many things before acting, including the good and bad consequences. The Armageddon War could be a major war that determined the survival of the two primary races, Humans and Demons.If one side won, it could take control of the entire place, considering both sides' main armies were in Ravengarden this time. However, the human race's position was quite advantageous after two battles won by the humans, even though they had to sacrifice a city.Since the sudden invasion of the Southcoast, the royal side has tightened control on the cities south of Athanor. The leading troops were divided into nearby towns in case
