Alex stands on the top of the Eiffel Tower, looking down as millions of Sariel Orbs conquer Europe below.The Orbs handle all the brutal killing the beasts, replacing humans in this grim task. They work tirelessly and efficiently, almost a billion strong, powered by ancient technology from Babel.The Sariel Orbs are unbeatable, their presence a cold and unyielding testament to Alex's dominance.The wind whistles through the iron lattice of the Eiffel Tower, carrying the scent of smoke and the distant cries of a continent in turmoil.Standing atop the tower, Alex is recorded by the Orbs, broadcasting his live video to all places in Europe.The Orbs project his message onto screens everywhere they are.The broadcast reaches every corner of the continent, from the ancient cities of Italy to the snowy reaches of Scandinavia.The people of Europe, huddled in their homes or hiding in the ruins of their once-great cities, watch with a mixture of dread and fascination."Greetings, everyone.
"I know he will do it," Alex says, his voice carrying a quiet intensity as he hears about what happened to all the Everheart properties and the factory.He has been with James for decades and understands the intricate workings of his mind.He knows James will not stop until his dream is achieved, and he is willing to do anything to get it done. Even if it means harming himself.Alex’s aim has already been achieved: first, to separate James from Sophia; second, to get Tommy; and third, to destroy Wellington's good name so that no one will get close to him.With Wellington's power weakened and people refusing to rally under his flag, he will never be able to become the president of the world without the people's support.Rebuilding the property and factory are easy, but building a good name is hard."Remember to spread the bad things he is doing for everyone to see," Alex says, his eyes narrowing as he plots the next move."We still have Africa and many other places to conquer. Peace wi
The president is making a press conference at the White House. The room is filled with the buzzing of cameras and the hushed murmurs of reporters."To all citizens of the United States of America," he begins, his voice steady yet solemn, "we know George Wellington and William Wellington's deaths are a great loss for America. They were both great generals." The president pauses, his eyes reflecting a deep, personal sorrow.He spends ten minutes sharing his personal memories and close relationship with George and William, his voice occasionally wavering with emotion.After a moment of silence, he shifts to a more serious tone. "Now, after much thought and reflection, I believe this will be the greatest decision I will ever make."He looks directly at the press, his expression intense and determined. "I am appointing James Wellington as the Supreme Leader of the USA military."The room erupts in gasps and murmurs of shock. The air feels charged with disbelief."From now on, all military
"James," Livia calls out, her voice echoing through the dimly lit room. "You cannot win against Alexander if you don’t take drastic measures. Eden country has advanced technologies from Babel. They could easily overwhelm us.""What do you want?" James asks, his tone impatient.Livia looks at James, her eyes filled with determination. "I have lost to Alex twice. I don't think I can bear losing a third time.""Just tell me what you want.""I need more blood."James narrows his eyes, a coldness settling in them. "What can I gain if I give you more blood?""I have clear memories of Babel's technologies. If I give them to you, you'll know how to block Ariel. You can even create orbs like Sariel.""How many people do I need to sacrifice to get all that technology to fight Eden Country?" James asks, his voice steady but his eyes betraying a flicker of unease.Livia smirks and licks her lips. "A million people.""Alright," James says, his voice resolute. "But can you stop pretending to be an
A year passes, and under the constant strain of fighting without rest, I feel myself slowly losing control in the heat of war.But finally, Sariel says to me what I always want to hear."Master, there are no more beasts in this world. We have conquered all countries except the USA."Only after that do I relax my body. It has become a war machine for a full year without resting. Always fearing I am too late to help people who need me.And finally this journey come to end.A few days passes since that day…With empty eyes, I look at the starry sky and the lamps of the city of Paris."I am Alex.""Yes, I am Alex," I repeat, as if to reaffirm my own existence.I gaze at the world I have tried to build from the top of the Eiffel Tower.I stand at the very top without any fear, feeling the night wind and looking at the night sky of Paris.Except for the USA, I have practically conquered every country."How many people are left?" I ask Sariel."In the whole world, there are about four billio
"Master, I found there is some movement outside the USA," Sariel says, his voice urgent."Where?" Alex asks, his eyes narrowing."Mexico and Canada.""From the satellite, there is a lot of movement there," Sariel updates him."Let's go to Mexico; we are closer to that position."For about half a year now, something different has been happening in the USA.Sariel cannot get information from inside anymore. It seems they are changing their telecommunication system, making it hard for them to detect.Their technology suddenly rises at such high speed that it blocks all Sariel's attempts to find information inside.When Alex flies at high speed to Mexico, everything in the country is destroyed. Not even a single animal is alive, let alone a human.The land is totally void of any human body heat. Some fires still burn in the city, casting a haunting glow against the darkened sky."Go check if there are any humans alive," Alex commands, passing city after city but finding no living being."
"What are you?" Alex asks, seeing humanoid demons with sharp teeth, some with wings and various weapons."Father told us to kill you, so you have to die," one creature hisses, its voice filled with malice.One creature, wielding a space-ability, comes at Alex from behind, attempting to stab him. Alex uses his diamond body to protect himself.Usually, it works, but somehow the weapon pierces his diamond defense, causing excruciating pain. They have weapons capable of cutting through diamond.Alex quickly evades the other hits, but some of the attacks land, causing him intense pain.Gritting his teeth, Alex activates his over-thinker ability, pulling out a sword from his hand and launching a series of high-speed weapon attacks.He slices the three creatures into nine pieces in a blur of motion.The creatures shriek painfully and fall to the ground, which darkens with their blood. "I've never seen creatures like this," Alex mutters, landing on the ground and inspecting them. "Did they s
Alex wakes up, still floating among a hundred million orbs. Everything that just happened occurred within his overthinking ability, a spark of the future.This power allows him to see into the future. But this time, he is completely losing."Sariel, beware of the gray orbs. They have a nuclear bomb and will destroy everything in an attack. They also have the ability to break our shield," Alex warns urgently.Suddenly, the gray orbs appear, moving swiftly to start their attack. "Sariel, control all the millions to shoot at the gray orbs. Don't let them come closer!" Alex commands.Sariel orchestrates the millions of orbs to launch a coordinated attack on the gray orbs, causing a massive explosion with nuclear power. Soon, thousands of orbs launch from various places, all performing kamikaze, a suicidal attack.The hundred million orbs face a real problem as the gray orbs seem to anticipate all their moves, like they know where the orbs will be going.Alex finds himself caught by two cr
