"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
"You've lost your humanity, James," Alex says with anger, his voice shaking. "You've become a monster. But I won't let you destroy everything."James's laughter rings out again, cold and devoid of any warmth. "you can try Alex, but you can't stop me. This world is mine to conquer, and soon, so will the next."Alex clenches his fists. He knows he must find a way to stop James, no matter the cost. The fate of humanity depends on it."We need to gather all our forces," Alex says, determination hardening his voice. "We can't let him destroy any more lives."Sariel, flying beside Alex, replies with resolve. "We'll fight to the end, Master. For the sake of everyone."The largest war in human history begins.All who can move, from Asia, Europe, Africa, and every corner of the world, unite to attack James.Heroes appear in wartime when the demon king emerges, but also sadness and death. It feels inevitable, a force destroying everything.James's madness consumes him completely, turning him in
Alex is deep in thought, trying to understand how everything has become such a mess. Where is the part where he is making a big mistake?The answer lies with James.Alex grabs James's hand, and suddenly they teleport to the middle of a prayer marathon, where the light energy is at its peak. Livia is hiding inside James, screaming painfully."What are you going to do with me?" James's face turns to fear. He is in the middle of the enemy and can die at any moment."James, I heard you have an ambition to be the president of the world?" Alex looks at him dangerously."How did you know?""Don’t ask how I know. I just want to ask you, what are you going to do when you become the world president?" Alex casts fire in his hand."You better speak from your heart. I have the ability to know when someone is lying.""I... I..." James is silent for a while and decides to tell the truth from his heart. "At the age of 16, I had a girlfriend named Chloe. She was the angel in my life. Yet, she died wh
Life after that turn becomes very peaceful, at least for me, Alex. Sophia and I find ourselves mostly in the mansion's garden. I bought Sariel orbs for our garden's protection; no one can enter our place without getting hit by Sariel's laser.Sophia has already tried to contact the Academy since security in America worsened when James declared war on the US president. With millions of Sariel orbs and soldiers under William and George's command, the president basically let them enter the White House. With George becoming the president of America, I think he will eventually pass the presidency to James.However, some people cannot accept this. They try to demonstrate and cause chaos, but James quickly handles it. The Sariel orbs continue to kill beasts all around the world, making James the king of the world. It is expected to bring total peace to the world within the next year.Anyway, I am no longer concerned about the world's problems. I am with Sophia in the garden; she is reading a
