As Chris valiantly battled against the relentless onslaught, Diana, with unwavering determination, focused her efforts on unlocking the legacy of the Way Village. The air was thick with tension as the village's inhabitants slowly began to vanish, their faces adorned with expressions of unbridled joy, a testament to Diana's success in her endeavor. Chris, amidst the chaos, knew that he had to prevail.Finally, after an arduous struggle, Chris managed to defeat the seemingly endless waves of monstrous foes. Yet, he was well aware that there might be a second wave looming on the horizon. He held onto the hope that, by the time this second onslaught arrived, their time within the mystical relic known as the Eternal would have expired, sparing them further tribulations.As the villagers faded away one by one, Chris approached Diana, accompanied by Heroku, the village's chief, who had just emerged from his private chambers. With deep reverence, he bowed and expressed his gratitude, saying,
In the Star Academy, meticulous records were maintained, ensuring that the fates of its students were known to all. Each entrance into the eternal realm was meticulously documented, a practice that proved invaluable in distinguishing those who had returned from those who hadn't.Among the academy's denizens, one figure bore the weight of sorrow on her countenance - Diana. She recounted a grim tale to one of the instructors, unaware that the very moment she emerged from the eternal realm, her dear friend Chris faced a dire peril.The instructor responded somberly, "Even if we harbor a desire to mount a rescue, we must exercise patience, for three long days must pass before the eternal realm can again admit anyone."A mere three hours later, a palpable tremor coursed through the academy, its epicenter pulsating with intensity at the entrance to the eternal realm. Instructors rushed to the scene, including the esteemed Dean, Master Andrew. It was a notable departure from his previous be
As Chris gazed upon the youthful figure before him, his astonishment grew. He had anticipated the arrival of older individuals from the academy, so the sight of this young person took him by surprise. He couldn't help but wonder if this was some sort of mistake or perhaps a test.Summoning his courage, Chris inquired, "May I ask who you are?"In response, the Headmaster introduced himself, saying, "I am Silas, the Headmaster of the Star Academy. And who, may I ask, are you?"A shiver coursed through Chris as he absorbed the revelation that the young man standing before him held the prestigious position of Headmaster at the Star Academy. Chris had always known that there was a formidable presence associated with the academy, but it was genuinely astonishing to discover that this person was not much older than he was.The realization dawned upon him that someone of such a young age could wield such immense power, and Chris couldn't help but acknowledge the exceptional talent before him.
Alexander awoke with a newfound sense of vitality coursing through his veins, a rejuvenation he had never experienced before. He deftly applied pressure to specific acupoints on the slumbering figure of the real Chris, expertly rousing him from his deep sleep.Chris, his eyes fluttering open, found himself in the presence of Alexander. Gratitude surged within him, and his first words were a heartfelt expression of thanks for his unexpected rescue.However, the circumstances surrounding Alexander's encounter with Chris were far from ordinary. Chris was not the person David had originally intended for Alexander to impersonate. In a twist of fate, Alexander had once witnessed Gavin and his cohorts attempting to eliminate Chris. Swift action on Alexander's part had spared Chris's life, but not without consequences. Alexander had induced a deep slumber in Chris and, taking advantage of the situation, had assumed his identity to infiltrate the Star Academy."I want to be clear, Chris," Ale
As their conversation concluded, a sudden, thunderous boom echoed through the surroundings, instantly capturing the attention of everyone present, including Diana and her uncle, who promptly ventured outside.To their astonishment, they discovered Chris waiting there. His appearance drew an immediate crowd, comprised of both instructors and students, all eager to engage with him.Unperturbed, Chris spoke with an air of disappointment, "It's disheartening to witness the actions of this academy. Your student stumbled upon a stroke of luck, and yet you seek to strip it away."Chris had, at last, achieved a breakthrough into the guardian realm, occupying its lower echelons, courtesy of Alexander's invaluable assistance. However, Alexander had bequeathed him a means to conceal his true realm from prying eyes."You! How dare you tarnish our family's honor?" Chris's older brother, also situated in the lower levels of the guardian realm, reprimanded him as he advanced menacingly towards Chris
"Do you find it surprising, kid?" Ray turned to face Alexander, his tone dripping with amusement.In that very moment, an intense surge of irritation welled up within Alexander. Despite being firmly in his twenties, Ray, who was likely in his forties, had the audacity to refer to him as a "kid." It was a label that grated on his nerves, to say the least.Ray's smile seemed almost taunting, as if he could read Alexander's inner turmoil. He continued, "Hey kid, Silas and I have a history that goes way back. We're practically age-mates. As for his enduring youth, well, he paid a hefty price for it – a price I wasn't willing to pay. I just don't see the allure in remaining perpetually young."Headmaster Silas, who was visibly incensed by Ray's unwelcome interference, couldn't contain his anger. He snapped, "Don't think that our acquaintance will deter me from attacking you. Even your own niece sided with that young man."Alexander's confusion was palpable as he retorted, "Niece?!"Ray's g
In the heat of the moment, even Ray, who had been grounded moments earlier, rose to his feet, a mixture of surprise and apprehension etched across his face. The other Alexander, now elevated to the higher level of the Dharma realm, had amassed enough power to take on Headmaster Silas. However, two critical factors weighed on his mind. Firstly, he was acutely aware that overextending the power source came at a steep price, one he would undoubtedly have to pay. Secondly, the dramatic surge in strength had a time constraint; he had to conclude this battle swiftly.Headmaster Silas, too, found himself on his feet, meticulously wiping away the blood stains from the corner of his mouth. Addressing the transformed Alexander, he remarked, "Impressive, I never suspected you held such an ace up your sleeve. I'm certain it's the reason you dared to face me. But rest assured, the cost of this recklessness will be considerable."Alexander responded with a confident chuckle, "The price will prove
"I will make sure to end you if it the last thing I do but before i do, i will make sure to cut everyone you love, your friends, your family into bits and pieces." Headmaster Silas threatened.Alexander showed little concern for his family, the influential Greece family, as their power was immense, making it nearly impossible for Silas to pose any threat to them, especially since Silas remained oblivious to Alexander's true identity.However, Alexander's primary source of worry rested upon his friends, such as Isabelle and Allen. He intended to address this concern once he resolved the current situation at hand. Alexander understood that if Headmaster Silas managed to escape now, it would be perilous. He knew that allowing Silas to escape posed a significant risk.Before Alexander's arrival at this location, while he was still hiding out in a cave with Chris, he had secretly observed a clandestine meeting between the Headmaster and Master Andrew. This revelation exposed the fact that
