Paxton walked steadily toward Talon and Gwen, wearing a red leather jacket adorned with a Red Dragon symbol. He was clearly angry as he confronted them.

"You're not going anywhere with my flags!" Paxton exclaimed, with anger.

Paxton couldn't help but chuckle nonchalantly, "Hmm, it seems I may have played the fool by revealing the flag's location. But you see, it was all part of my plan," Paxton continued, "I purposely exposed the flag to distract you from my true and objective. It was a cunning trap I set specifically for you. As we speak, I believe your men are being encircled, and your base and will definitely collect your flags and your team is surely under assault from my team."

Talon couldn't help but chuckle casually. "I guess you're still quite foolish. Why would I leave a flag at our base when we're all here together? And I don't think that the assault will be for long" he confidently replied.

Paxton paused, clearly confused. "I guess there might be some truth to that, but

    Talon found himself lying on his bed in his dormitory room, deep in thought about his experiences with Gwen. As he gazed up at the rooftop, he couldn't help but question his own emotions. "Should I really pursue this?" Talon pondered, recalling Salvador's advice about a woman's vulnerability being a sign of attraction. They had shared a kiss, which according to Salvador, indicated Gwen's interest in him. However, Talon was unsure if he felt the same way. The truth was, he couldn't quite figure Gwen out. The thought of Gwen coming to his room and things becoming awkward made Talon uneasy. He flipped over, trying to find a comfortable position as he continued his internal debate. "Salvador suggested that I should try talking to her in a seductive manner to evoke happiness and establish a connection," Talon said to himself. "But how do I truly know if I have feelings for her? Salvador mentioned that if I can't maintain eye contact when I'm close to her, it's a sign of love. And if I c

    Talon had finished preparing for the Martial Art Center and was getting dressed in a casual track suit. As he left his room, he locked the door with his key card. Unbeknownst to him, Gwen was standing right behind him, waiting. When Talon turned around, he instinctively used his elbow to hit her ribs. As she started to fall, he quickly caught her. Frustrated, Talon exclaimed, "Why does this happen every time?" He held her waist in a bowing style while Gwen's legs shot up with her canvas as she held onto Talon's waist. Their eyes locked in that intense moment. Now, Gwen was angry. "I think you're always planning this," she seethed, feeling that Talon had orchestrated the situation to get her.Talon quickly withdrew his hands, preventing Gwen from falling. However, she regained her composure and managed to steady herself. Finally, Gwen stood firm, her body no longer swaying as she momentarily paused. "And you keep repeating the same actions. You're a man, so stop behaving like a wom

    Talon found himself at the ticket counter, ready to purchase a ticket for an upcoming fight. Gwen discreetly positioned herself at a nearby corner, observing his every move. As the Golden Maiden, she had no intentions of revealing her identity and participating in the arena battles that day.Talon engaged in conversation with the person behind the counter, situated in a corner of the spacious hall. Meanwhile, a woman caught his attention as she walked by. She exuded confidence and had an alluring figure, accentuated by her shorts that revealed her hips and heels. Her long, braided hair gracefully swayed along with her hips, reaching down to her waist.Gwen watched intently from a distance, curious to see Talon's reaction as the woman approached him. However, to her delight, Talon seemed unfazed by her presence and showed no interest. A smile crept across Gwen's face; this was precisely what she had hoped for.While Talon remained at the counter, the woman purposefully pressed her bust

    Thornbark playfully remarked to Valkyrie, "I hope I won't be condemned merely for engaging in combat with a woman," accompanied by a teasing chuckle."If you dare challenge me, let's settle this elsewhere, perhaps in a more private setting. We'll find out who truly deserves the title of the ultimate fighter. I have no intention of subjecting you to public humiliation," Thornbark added, a sly grin and mischievous glint in his eyes.Valkyrie sharply retorted, "Do you honestly believe I would lower myself to enter your chambers? Your jests are astonishing. If I were to even set foot in that space, I would swiftly cut off your most prized possession," her gaze fixated menacingly on Thornbark's lower region.Her sharp gaze even made Thornbark to hold his pants in fear of what she might do. "Hmmm.... she must really be the intense type. " Talon smiled as he watched their verbal engagement. "Pfttt!" Gwen replied to the statement. "Hoooooooh!"A collective gasp reverberated through the cr

    Valkyrie found herself surrounded by long, thick vines ablaze with fiery energy, all converging on her position on the ground, just a short distance away from Thornbark. With every ounce of his strength, Thornbark focused on a single strike, determined to eliminate Valkyrie once and for all.The vines intertwined and merged into a colossal hand, forming a massive appendage that extended from Thornbark's octopus-like limb, all aimed directly at Valkyrie. Despite her remarkable agility and nimbleness, she attempted to evade the onslaught of attacks, but it became increasingly apparent that she was unable to escape the grip of the vine hand.Performing a graceful backflip, Valkyrie wielded her Chilled Ghost sword, attempting to sever the relentless vines. However, to her dismay, with each cut she made, the vines seemed to regenerate. Finally, Thornbark utilized the vine hand to ensnare Valkyrie entirely, lifting her off the ground using the tendrils. "Aaaaah!" A horrifying scream escape

    Immediately, Valkyrie tightened her grip on her Blade and spun through the air, closing in on Thornbark with incredible speed. She had gained the upper hand, swiftly cutting through the vines that threatened to encroach upon her. Her movements were so swift that they blurred, making her appear like a phantom in the frozen environment. Thornbark's every action seemed sluggish in comparison, hindered by Valkyrie's dominating presence."I would say you're in my domain, but that would imply I'm merely a demigod," Valkyrie chuckled, observing how Thornbark stood no chance against her now.The fact that Valkyrie, a Sanctifier, possessed an elemental ability typically reserved for Holy Druids, shocked the onlookers. The once-expected defeat of the mighty Valkyrie had now turned the tables on Thornbark, placing them in a precarious position."Thornbark, it appears you underestimated me," Valkyrie asserted, with confidence. "The almighty Valkyrie, whom everyone believed would be defeated, no

    Talon grabbed her waist, unable to contain himself as he tore her clothes with speed.He began to devour her body, kissing her neck. "You've gained some curves while I was away," Talon said, noting how Gwen had indeed filled out more than before. The change had only enhanced her figure, making her shape more seductive than ever."Don't you like it?" Gwen moaned softly as Talon explored the rest of her body."Why wouldn't I love your fuller curves?" Talon smiled as he grabbed her bottom and squeezed firmly."Mmh! Bad boy," Gwen moaned as she felt the pressure from his hands, finding pleasure in the sensation."Why don't you explore there too?" Gwen said in a soft tone."Of course," Talon replied, gripping her waist and lifting her up, positioning her immediately."I'll show you what it means to explore," Talon said, fully aroused.Talon hadn't actually seen her body in such detail before - their last encounter had been while he was barely conscious, and he couldn't remember much of wha

    Can't Hold Back The Urge

    “And I tried to save her by using my body to wedge her,” Talon concluded the story of how he first met Gwen a decade ago. David had already fallen asleep by now.Talon still held onto Gwen’s hands as David had requested.However, noticing that David was now asleep, Gwen quietly removed her hands. She hadn’t yet forgiven Talon and was still upset.Angry and flustered, Gwen attempted to leave the room. It was already late at night.Talon felt a bit sad, but decided to give her more time. Just as Gwen was about to leave, David stirred and called out to them, his voice groggy.“Dad! Mom! Are you guys quarreling again?” David’s drowsy eyes slowly opened.Gwen, who was halfway out of the room, stopped in her tracks.“Of course not, my darling. Why would we do such a thing?” Gwen quickly returned to Talon’s side and held his hand again.“Look, you see? Our hands are still together,” Gwen said as she raised their joined hands for David to see.Standing behind her, Talon felt a small flicker o

    Trying To Earn Her Forgiveness

    Gwen shed tears, unable to fully process what Talon was saying. A part of her wanted to believe him, but the years of pain, the countless nights mourning his supposed death, made it impossible for her to accept his words so easily. The reasonable explanation he offered made her angry further—how could something so plausible feel so impossible to believe?“Talon, you died a long time ago in my life,” Gwen finally said. She turned abruptly and left the place without looking back.“Gwen!”“Gwen!”Her father and Nate called after her, but she didn’t stop or respond.Talon stood frozen, his head bowed in sorrow. He knew reconciliation wouldn’t be easy, but he had to try. “I know she’s hurt... but I can’t give up now,” he murmured to himself. Back home, Gwen stormed through the door, slamming it shut. Little David, who was playing with his toys on the floor, looked up in excitement.“Mummy! Daddy’s back! Hurray! I thought he was gone forever, but now he’s here! Mummy, I want to see Dad!” D

    Talon’s boots hit the ground as he descended the ramp of the SSS-Class Apex craft. Behind him, six members of his crew followed, their postures alert and disciplined. The quiet hum of the landing pad was soon overtaken by murmurs and whispers from those gathered at the edge of the docking area.Gwen’s heart thudded painfully in her chest as she clutched her son, David, tighter. Her legs wavered between taking a step forward or retreating into the safety of her home.“Talon?” she whispered to herself, disbelief clouding her face.Nate, standing nearby, watched Gwen's reaction cautiously but turned his gaze to the mysterious man stepping forward. His well-kept military stance, the crew flanking him in perfect formation, and the way the guards at the Safe Zone hesitated to approach spoke volumes. This wasn’t just anyone—it was someone important.Gregg Landon furrowed his brows, recognizing the badge clipped onto Talon’s jacket, one he hadn’t seen in years. “That badge… but that’s…” He le

What's the problem now?" Talon didn’t quite understand what was going on.Salvador was in the workshop, the special area in the craft designated for repairs. Hearing the feedback from AVA, he wanted to run a diagnosis to get the full details of the issue.He raised his hands to activate the holographic projection of their craft on the table in his workshop—Apex, as it was named.He began to zoom in and dismantle some parts of the craft, identifying a section that was beaming red. Then he saw that one of their thrusters was damaged."Problem identified!"

    The Reunion

    **Safe Zone**Inside a room that resembled a military meeting room, there was a projector displaying a graphical representation. Inside stood a girl with bright, long red hair as she put on military gear, accompanied by about five others."What else do we need?" Gwen asked as she looked at the tablet handed to her by one of the men in the room."Miss Gwen, I think there is a shortage in our food supply. If this continues, there will be an uproar here in the Safe Zone," the man said, staring at the graphical projection on the wall."If we don't do anything about this, in a few weeks we could all die from starvation," he continued, explaining in detail."The only solution is to send a request for food from the neighboring camp, Vanguard," he referenced.Upon hearing that name, Gwen felt a surge of anger; it was the territory of her father, whom she had resented for years. He had always disapproved of her relationship with Talon and never blessed it before Talon was gone."We have been l

"There was a time at the academy" Salvador recounted the events of their academy days with Talon, to the extent that Talon felt embrassed a bit. “i can remember the very day he saw Gwen!” Salvador laughed, slapping his knee.Talon was a bit sober hearing that name.“Sal, if I may ask...Have you heard from Gwen?Before Salvador could reply, a sharp alarm blared.

    "Yeah, I was about to tell you, but—" Gwen immediately cut him short as she stated, "Cool! You wanted to leave just like that. I should've known that you aren't any different from him." Gwen finally let out as she attempted to leave, going out the door without even waiting for Talon to clarify things.Talon ran after her, holding her right arm. "No, it's not like that. Where I'm going is not a place I can bring you guys along. I didn't know how to explain it to you, but I promise that you will be safe with Master Feng. He will take proper care of you. You don't need to worry about me; I will be fine. And I promise that I won't stay that long," Talon tried to explain.Talon was unaware that Gwen had begun to develop feelings for him gradually. It might sound strange, but she had always liked one person—Talon. However, it wasn't this Talon, so her developing feelings for his doppelgänger was a bit strange."Leave me alone.

    I Must Learn From Master Feng

    Master Feng stood firm, staring down at Talon, who lay on the ground, weakened by the backlash from the transcendence energy. Talon, though physically drained, was in shock. It wasn't just the energy's backlash that startled him—he couldn't believe Master Feng had somehow accessed his Astral Plane. The realization hit him hard. “H-how did you...?” Talon stammered, struggling to find the words. He couldn't fathom how it had happened. Master Feng's was furious as he addressed Talon's reckless actions. “Why would you be so foolish as to attempt such a dangerous experiment? Do you not realize the disaster you could have unleashed if the energies from your Astral Plane had spilled into the real world?” He paused for a moment, his eyes narrowing. “Do you even understand the power of what you were trying to manipulate? You would have killed yourself—and endangered everyone around you.” Talon lowered his head, staring at his bloodstained hands, filled with regret. He had been warned by No
