Max felt an overwhelming vertigo as soon as he entered the portal.
Opening his eyes, he found himself in a place that looked vaguely familiar, but at the same time, he seemed to feel strangely distorted.
This world was dark and desolate, similar to the human world he remembered living in before becoming a warrior, but this world was in ruins.
Max had not noticed it, but his clothing changed, he no longer wore his warrior robe like the same one the guardians wore, rather, now, he wore a leather suit attached to his body, it is a decorated black suit with red. Even on his head, he only wore a black mask that had been glued to his eyes.
The buildings and other constructions of the city have been destroyed by an inexplicable force, everything was on the ground living among rubble, smoke and dirt. The sky is perfectly covered with black clouds. There are no signs of human life, only the echo of the wind howling through the empty streets.
The air is charged with a sense of imminent danger. Max moved forward cautiously, his senses kept alert. With each step he took, they resonated in the midst of the sepulchral silence, further amplifying the loneliness that invaded the place.
So, Max decided to explore a little, hoping to find some clue that would be useful in finding the woman's whereabouts. Max was desperate, and eager to find her safe and sound.
And deep inside him, he prayed that the guardians were not furious with him for having disobeyed them and having traveled to a world that is not his, and even less so without his consent. His instinct led him towards an abandoned building, almost on the verge of collapsing.
The facade of the building is covered with a vine of thorns and carnivorous plants that are capable of eating an entire human with just one bite.
Suddenly, a dull, resounding noise emerged from inside the building, hitting its walls like an echo. Max stopped walking, his heart was pounding because he was scared of whatever was going to come his way, even if he was a warrior, he was still a human who was easily scared by the unknown.
Then, a gigantic shadow emerged from the shadows. The beast has the appearance of a colossal scorpion, with a shiny black shell that glows in the darkness. Its eyes are red and burned with an imposing ferocity, its tail is long and sharp, and it moved with a hypnotic and lethal movement.
Max looked at that creature with horror, because it is the most horrifying creature he has seen since he became a warrior. Compared to the lava creatures, this monster is much more imposing, and it can be seen that it is even much more powerful than any other creature...
The creature lunged at Max with such surprising speed, its pincers snapping with a terrifying sound. Max didn't know how the creature was able to see him in absolute darkness, but then he thought about it; His eyes, through the color of his eyes, is that this creature could see into the darkness.
Max jumped back, drawing his hand sword in a fluid motion because Max knew very well how to use it. But, and, he quickly realized that that sword was not going to be his best defense weapon. Then, the creature let out a deafening roar that Max never imagined a scorpion would be capable of.
The scorpion's breath stank of death and decay.
“Damn it!” Max exclaimed, preparing for the upcoming fight.
The beast attacked again, this time, using its pointed tail, it whipped it into the air with great force, causing the little stability that maintained the ruined building to last forever. Since several pieces of rubble fell from the ceiling quickly, and if it had not been for Max's good reflexes, he would probably be stuck in a nest of rubble looking for a way out, or perhaps dead.
Seeing himself on the verge of being defeated, and with a war cry, Max launched a slash of air towards one of the creature's legs, managing to make a scratch on its hard shell that caused slight bleeding.
The beast immediately retreated, emitting a high-pitched screech, giving Max signs of pain thanks to his attack.
It was there that Max decided to take advantage of the scorpion's moment of distraction to attack it again, because if he did not defeat the beast, it was most likely that Max would suffer its fury and the beast would choose to chase him, and without resting until he had finished with him.
At that moment, the scorpion wound began to heal magically, and Max's ring began to shine with a much greater intensity than before, as if he were waiting for the urgency of that encounter to demonstrate his power to him your chosen one.
“Come on, buddy, you can do it. Give me some power, now!” Max muttered desperately.
Suddenly, he felt a surge of energy coursing through his body.
The ring emitted a blinding flash of light, and Max felt its strength increase uncontrollably. With renewed determination and new power, Max launched a devastating attack on the scorpion, managing to break one of its pincers.
The beast roared in pain and fury.
Max tried to recover, because when he screamed, he swung to the ground, but he was able to hold on so as not to fall. The ring has caused him to lose a little energy, but he doesn't have much left, since the scorpion was running out of energy, one more attack, and he would end up dead.
The creature shook violently, trying to regain its energy to knock Max down.
But Max was more agile, and rushed to attack.
The ring gave him the power that Max needed, the warrior bent his knees, and taking great momentum, he launched himself into the air and ended up falling on top of the scorpion. The strong blow of his feet was enough for the beast, as the scorpion ended up collapsing to the ground, with his face hitting it. Then, a voice in his mind told Max what he had to do: “Max, in the scorpion's head, there is a red diamond, it is very small, that's why you couldn't see it. That is its weak point, hit it until there are many pieces of the diamond left and until its shine goes out, if it doesn't go out, hit it again a second time, that will be enough for the scorpion to finally die and you can win this battle.
“Understood,” Max whispered.
Max approached the head of the scorpion. Fortunately, the animal remained completely still on the ground and Max was able to hold on to it without risking falling to the ground. And, following the orders of the voice in his head, with one fist, Max hit the red diamond that dazzled with brilliance before his eyes and landed on the scorpion's head. The diamond is not very big, nor very small, but Upon seeing it, Max knew that defeating the scorpion was going to be a piece of cake.
Max felt an overwhelming vertigo as soon as he entered the portal.Opening his eyes, he found himself in a place that looked vaguely familiar, but at the same time, he seemed to feel strangely distorted.This world was dark and desolate, similar to the human world he remembered living in before becoming a warrior, but this world was in ruins.Max had not noticed it, but his clothing changed, he no longer wore his warrior robe like the same one the guardians wore, rather, now, he wore a leather suit attached to his body, it is a decorated black suit with red.

The sky is perfectly covered with black clouds. There are no signs of human life, only the echo of the wind howling through the empty streets.The air is charged with a sense of imminent danger.
Max hit the red diamond with all his might, and the gem began to crack under the pressure of his fist. A bright, blinding red flash emerged from within the red diamond. That's when the scorpion let out one last roar before collapsing completely. Max fell to the ground on his knees, luckily, the blow to his feet was not hard, and it didn't hurt at all.Max took a deep breath, corrected his posture, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and relaxed the tension emanating from his body. The scorpion lay dead motionless at his feet, and for now, tranquility took over again.Max stepped back, watching as the scorpion's body slowly disintegrated into the air, until nothing was left of it.Suddenly, Max felt his legs give out, and he fell to his knees on the ground, exhaustion overtaking him, and he barely had time to register everything that was happening around him before losing consciousness.He woke up hours later, feeling the cold ground under his body. His vision slowly adjusted, and the f
"Hey! Max, here I am!", The desperate woman screamed, her body trembling with fear because of the height at which she was levitating without knowing what her final destiny would be.From what Max could tell, the woman is very pretty, despite her appearance. Her hair is brown, her eyes seemed to be clear although she couldn't see them precisely because of the distance. The woman's figure was clearly of a slim build, although at that moment she was wearing a white coat that was a little loose for her size.Upon seeing her, a deep chill ran through Max's body, he knew it, she is the woman he so longed to find.Then, Max ran towards the edge, quickly assessing the situation. The branch from which the woman was hanging in the air was very weak, although the woman did not weigh more than about sixty kilos, it is evident that the branch is so loose that with any movement, no matter how slight or rough it may be, The woman would end up falling to the bottom of the ravine.There was no time to
The happiness of Max and the woman faded, when Max knew that the guardians were looking at him with indifference, he knew them perfectly well, after living with them for so long, of them being his only family,Max realized that Now, his moment of happiness has ended, because the disobedient had to be punished.The guardians' eyes flash with fury as they look at him.Lyra was the first to speak."What is this, Max? You have disobeyed us when you know perfectly well that we had forbidden you to commit this madness. Max, we warned you that we had to first investigate this situation before you make this absurd decision. "But you did not follow our orders, therefore, you will have to receive a harsh punishment that cannot be reversed," Lyra threatened firmly.From the first day, Max knew that he should not disobey his guardians, and he was always very obedient, but on this occasion, his masculine instinct prevailed over his reasoning. He knew what punishment he had to receive to be account
"Damn... I'm back," Max muttered, looking at the dark paradise that was recreated in front of him.The magic of the guardians has taken Max back to his world, but it does not take him where he wanted to go; his grandmother's house. Max has been transported to a desolate place, surrounded by uncovered streets that looked wet as if it had been raining all day and non-stop until now.The dirt on the unpaved streets was wet, so much so that Max had to walk very slowly to avoid falling to the ground while he crossed them wanting to reach his destination.The walk for Max seemed to be very long, and there was a moment along the way when he wanted to stop, sit somewhere and stay there, thinking for hours, since at that moment in his life, things were going to start to get very difficult for him.For Max, it has been five years since his life changed, since he became a warrior and abandoned his life to train and be what he was in his new world. The days and years flew by, and now, he felt as
After his grandmother disappeared from his sight, Max left the house with renewed determination and with his heart pounding because of the whirlwind of emotions he had just experienced. The vision of his grandmother had given him the spark of adrenaline and hope in the midst of a defeated world that would give him the necessary strength to move forward on his path of reconstruction and recovery of lost humanity.He knew that the mission given to him would not be easy, but he was determined to face any challenge. How was he going to do it now that his power ring was not on his side to rebuild humanity? Max felt like a helpless human, who was of no use, since even having returned to his old life, he caused his body to change again, and return to what it was before.The image of a city in ruins has remained engraved in his mind forever despite having it in front of him, that would be a constant reminder due to having made those mistakes that expelled him from his perfect life to live tha
He stopped meditating and began to follow the diary's instructions, heading toward the areas where the map indicated the entrances to the underground tunnels should be found. The cloudy and dark sky seemed to be watching him carefully, and the ground under his feet was covered with muddy debris, making it difficult for him to move quickly because he could not speed up his steps as he had to be careful where he stepped; a bad fall would destroy his entire mission. and it would lead to failure, and at that moment in his life, Max had to demonstrate the best of himself to the guardians, wherever they were watching him.As he entered the city, the panorama of destruction became much more evident than usual, and he was feeling the weight of the mission upon him.Finally, he found what in his eyes was an entrance to the underground tunnels. It was partially buried under a pile of rubble, little by little, Max managed to clear it with effort. The hole revealed a dark, narrow passage that wen
Thus, Max continued on his way through the dark underground tunnels without finding any more enemies nearby, his guide continued to be the weak glow of his flashlight that, at least, still worked despite the fact that in the last battle this object had ended up in the ground due to the impact of Max's fall.He continued moving forward, until he noticed that the tunnel was becoming wider, and the environment less deteriorated than before. The walls seemed very weak, however, they still remained strong under any circumstances.The sounds that Max initially heard became much clearer and louder as he got closer, telling him that he was much closer to his destination than he let on. He decided to take the path to the right as the map in the notebook indicated, and as soon as he arrived, he saw a dim light peek out from under a large black metal door.After a few minutes passed, Max arrived at a large underground room. At first, everything seemed calm, but when he realized that behind the d
