Ten years passed since that night, since the greatest celebration in the history of humanity was celebrated, and the new civilization was now governed by the wisdom of Max, the warrior. Cities expanded, new technologies continued to advance as time passed, and humanity adapted to their new reality so quickly that even Max felt completely proud of them.Well, they didn't even need all your help to be what they are now.Max, the warrior, was not only known by that nickname, but he also became known for being a symbol of hope, for having become a revered leader who guided his people through the challenges of construction, his bravery made humanity trust again and put itself in the hands of a great leader, and everyone was very proud of him.But outside of the public eye, Max had been the recipient of a very valuable gift: a family of his own for whom he could give everything until his last breath.That's how Max married the woman who had invited him to dance that night of celebration. Fr
The night enveloped the city with its dark mantle, dotted with stars. In the quiet of their home, Max and Selene enjoyed a moment of peace, knowing that their children were fast asleep. It was their nightly ritual, that brief but precious space where they could simply be Max and Selene, away from the responsibilities and worries that weighed on them as leaders of the new humanity.Max caresses Selene's face delicately and softly, her fingers brush against her cheek while her lips join together in a kiss full of love and lust. Those hours of the night, Max and his wife knew very well how to take advantage of them because it was the only time of day in which they could have privacy for themselves without their children wanting to interrupt them, or in that case, see them doing things they had not yet done. It was time for them to know what adults did.The passion between them ignited with every caress, every whisper shared under the dim light of the lamps in their room. Selene smiled ag
Selene stopped crying, she tried to calm down a little because if she wasn't sane, it would be impossible for her to give her husband vibes of hope to fulfill his mission."I hope so, Max. I don't want anything bad to happen to our children, they are innocent of all this threat. At all times I will be with you, at your side, I will support you in whatever is necessary to ensure that our children return home with us. I suggest that we call an assembly in the central square of the city, and that it be now. There is no time to waste. Our children have earned the affection of the citizens, they will help us find them at any cost".Max nodded, and kissed his wife's lips as a way of thanking her because that woman has given her the peace of mind she needed to live that moment. Also, that idea of the assembly was very good.Then, Max hurried to change his clothes, because he couldn't afford to go out into the city wearing pajamas, they would make fun of him, and that's the last thing he wa
The atmosphere is charged with tension while the hologram of Xal'thar disappeared before them. The murmurs of the crowd broke the silence that filled the square, Max could barely hear them. His mind was focused on a single goal, and he cared about nothing more than accomplishing it: rescuing his children. Max raised his hand in the air, looking towards the crowd, he asked for silence, and all of his subjects obeyed instantly, his eyes are full of concern, but they did not lose faith in their leader. "Friends, brothers, we cannot allow these beings to use our children for their experiments", the warrior spoke firmly. — They have underestimated our determination and our strength. I know many of you have lost loved ones in difficult times, but this time, we will not allow more humans to be taken away without first fighting. The survivors responded with a roar of approval at their warrior's words, and a surge of energy revitalized Max. Then, he began to feel how his ring awakened a uni
Suddenly, Max disappeared before his wife's eyes, followed by the guardians who left with him, because they knew that this battle was not a very easy one to win, Max would need reinforcements, and there was no one in that civilization who was better. than the guardians to help Max in case he needed it.Max and the guardians crossed the dimensional portal, and upon arriving, they were greeted by a panorama that seemed to be taken from the darkest nightmares. That dimension of the Zhol'Thax was a very desolate and cold place, surrounded by dense clouds charged with all electrical energy that crackled in the air, illuminated from time to time that gloomy landscape with sinister flashes.The soil was made of a material unknown to Max, the warrior had known many types of soil, but this one was not added to his list, so he did not know what species it was. The floor was made of black glass that seemed to absorb the light instead of reflecting it. There was no vegetation, much less signs of
Max decided to stop and stare at those colossal doors, observing how the lights and their patterns that formed on their surface seemed to analyze his presence to make the important decision about whether or not he should let him enter their base.The vibration of the power ring on his finger increased, resonating with an energy that almost seemed to respond to the energy of the base. Instinctively, Max closed his eyes for a moment, trying to tune into the energy of the place, trying to understand what those doors wanted to tell him with the power of him clinging to the power of the ring that his finger wore.The guardians noticed Max's ring, they are impressed by his reaction."Max? Is everything all right? What's wrong with your ring?"; Celen questioned with concern without taking her eyes off Max's ring, she felt hypnotized by his strong reaction.Max's gaze was also mesmerized by the ring, but he was preparing for the worst. Because that shine and that energy of power that emanated
So, it was there that Max felt a wave of determination run through his body, at the same time he saw how Xal'Thar finished the speech with a sarcastic mockery that made Max's skin crawl, it was evident that the alien wanted to fill the little patience was left, however, Max preferred to stay sane in that situation, because that is how a warrior should act in the middle of battle, Max should never allow himself to be overcome by the control of his emotions.Sensing the tension in the air, the guardians prepared for the imminent confrontation, none of them wanted to witness this, they were all totally scared, because although they did not say it, the guardians knew perfectly well the type of power that ran through them, the veins of the alien, and although his race fed and fought hand in hand with technology, what Max did not know until that moment was that Xal'Thar is much more powerful in magic than our power ring could be warrior.With a good use of his magic against Max, the warrior
Little by little, Max regained consciousness, as if emerging from a deep, dark abyss. This has been the first indication of his return to the world, in addition to perceiving the delicious aroma that was extremely familiar to him; the smell of the wood of his house, and the soft whisper of the wind that came through the half-open window.He slowly opened his eyes, but the light of day made him close them again, because it's not like he was going to be able to bear having them open for a long time while he tried to get used to his recovery, because the drop in his vitality had been too strong, and it's It was natural for Max to feel that way.The warrior felt his body heavy, exhausted. Every muscle, every bone, seemed to want to scream from the depths of his being, with the slightest attempt at movement that Max made.Finally, he managed to open his eyes enough to be able to make out his surroundings. Realizing that he is lying in his bed, in the comfort of his home, wrapped in the she
