Storm was shocked when he heard this, he couldn't believe that Lillian could see through him at all. Cause of the System, his powers grew rapidly, but at the same time, he hid it. The System had been both a gift and a curse.

It endowed him with extraordinary abilities, but it also demanded secrecy and caution. He often found himself pondering the balance between power and discretion.

He would sometimes wonder if he should show his true powers or not. In a world where power often corrupts, he found himself hiding it from everyone.

The world saw only a fraction of him, a mere facade, while the true strength within him remained hidden. He didn't hide his true powers out of shame or fear of rejection.

No, it was the dread of exploitation, the worry that his abilities would be taken advantage of and used for purposes he could not accept.

In a world where power corrupts, and those who seek it are often the least deserving, he had chosen to keep his powers a secret.

He had to keep his p

    Storm looked around the realm again before asking, “What kind of powers does he have?”Lillian stared at him surprised he had asked,the memories haunted her, even till now. She could still see his hulking figure towering over those helpless people, his face twisted into a cruel sneer as he killed them without mercy. The sheer power he possessed was both amazing and utterly terrifying to behold. He was no ordinary man, her father was a being of primal, supernatural force. Gifted, or perhaps cursed, with abilities that surpassed the limits of anyone she had ever seen. It sometimes seemed like he had every creatures power, he had magic, had the abilities of werewolves and vampires. He was super strong, fast and very smart, her father was a cunning man who liked to play with his preys. And an unrelenting brutality that spared no one who crossed his path.She trembled as she remembered cowering in the corner, trembling as she watched him effortlessly toss strong creatures aside like ragdo

    Storm was shocked when he heard this and looked at Lillian in shock, not believing what she said. His mind raced, trying to process the information she had just unloaded on him. But Lillian laughed, her voice tinged with amusement as she looked at the shock on his face."Yes, Storm," she said, as her eyes twinkled. "The Orb was, in fact, made by your family." Storm's heart skipped a beat. His family? The very thought seemed impossible.Storm's mind became a whirlwind of thoughts again. Could it be true? His family? Had they really created the orb? He had always known there was something different about his lineage, but this? This was beyond anything he could have imagined. He felt a strange mix of pride and fear. But Lillian continued, her tone now more serious, as if she now understood how serious her revelation was. “Humans were weak and had no powers, so the Orb was made by them to gain power," she explained. "They were the right vessel for the Orb and were the only ones who could

    “So Magebreaker probably knew about how strong your powers were and went to look for you to seal it. He knew he wouldn't have been able to defeat you if your powers were fully activated. How he managed to suppress your powers, I don't know but now you have you full abilities so you should be able to fight him if you meet him when you to find the Orb. Remember Magebreaker is just like my dad, he is very cunning, don't let him get to you, and don't try to be emphatic there. All these people, creatures, they are evil, they want to use the orb for evil so don't try to play nice, destroy them, anyone in your way.”Storm nodded as she held out his hand and he placed his in hers, she strapped his hand gloves tightly around his hands before speaking, “Remeber everything I taught you, use your mind and your strength. Pay attention to your surroundings, some of these creatures can be tricky and most lay traps, protect yourself well.” She removed a small knife from the back of her pocket and pla

    Just as Lillian left, Storm sighed and began his journey, heading directly to the palace. He looked around the realm and sighed again, he thought about all that he would have to fight before getting to the palace. Storm looked around and only noticed the hooting owls sitting on dead trees. They stared at him wide-eyed as he passed, this made his skin crawl. He stared at the tall mountains that seemed to mock him. He knew the palace would be on the other side of the mountain and this made him even more worried, he would have to fight a lot of creatures before getting there. Storm thought about all his friends, he had to do this for them. His thoughts shifted to his family, why did they keep a book about the orb in the library if they didn't want anyone to find it? Storm had never met his parents, they died when he was only a child so he didn't have any memories of them, just his grandfather. His grandfather had always told him he was stronger than he thought, he never believed him but

    Three days later, a disorganized Storm stood at the edge of the forest, his eyes fixed on a huge palace in the distance. The palace didn't look anything like the realm, it looked too perfect, not a single thing missing from it, its grand spires piercing the sky, and its massive walls adorned with intricate carvings and ceiling to floor windows. The surrounding area was like a garden, it had beautiful flowers surrounding it with winding paths leading up to the palace gates. Even though Storm was disheveled and looking wretched, his clothes torn and dirt-streaked, there was a fire in his eyes, an undeniable energy coursing through his veins. His life over the past three days took a toll on him but his determination hadn't changed.As he stood there, catching his breath, he couldn't help but think about everything he had been through and what he had endured. The forest around him was alive with the sounds of chirping birds and rustling leaves, a stark contrast to the violence he had face

    But much to his shock, he was not attacked. Rather, everywhere was calm, making him frown. Still, he walked forward, his steps echoing in the eerie silence of the grand hall. Stepping into the palace, he felt a sense of warmth overcome him, as though he had just arrived home, and this made him anxious. The warmth was unexpected, he hadn't felt this warmth in a long time. The last time he felt this warm was at the garden when the Orb was still there and this thought unsettled him deeply. He had expected more creatures, resistance, a fight, or at the very least, Mage breaker or the King of hell. Storm thought about the King of hell and what he would look like. He wondered why he didn't have a better name instead of the King of hell, he also thought about the Magebreaker. Where they working together? Storm wasn't sure but he hadn't seen the Magebreaker since and he definitely knew he had to fight the Magebreaker too. Storm looked around still expecting creatures to come out of anywhere

    Just as Storm was about to move forward, he heard a loud voice welcoming him with laughter, echoing through the dimly lit chamber. "Welcome, Storm! Feel at home!" the voice boomed, reverberating off the whole place. Storm's heart skipped a beat. He paused, squinting into the shadows, trying to pinpoint the source of the voice. "That must be Lillian's father," he muttered under his breath, his muscles tensed as he took a defensive stance. He knew he had to stay on his guard. The voice had an eerie, almost mocking quality, and he couldn't afford to let his guard down for a second. He scanned his surroundings, every nerve on edge, his senses heightened.Without caring about anything else, he rushed towards the direction where he had felt the Orb. His pulse quickened as he neared it, the air growing colder and heavier with each step. The chamber seemed to stretch endlessly, shadows dancing on the walls like malevolent spirits. His breath came in short, sharp bursts, the anticipation gnaw

    Storm immediately smirked at the Magebreaker. He was definitely going to kill him now after he heard everything the Magebreaker had said. The memory of their last encounter flashed vividly in his mind. “Beforenyou get to use the Orb, I would end you myself.” Storm sneered, his voice dripping with hatred and anger. “Last time, you selead my powers, now we have a score to settle.”Magebreaker’s eyes narrowed, a flicker of anger crossing his face. “You think you can defeat me , Storm? I would end you before you even lay a finger on me.” he retorted, his voice a low growl. The tension between them crackled like electricity in the air.Without another word, the two lunged at each other, their movements a blur of speed and power. Storm's hands immediately found his sword as he swung it towards Magebreaker who swiftly dodged to the side, his own hands glowing with a dark energy. He unleashed a torrent of electricity towards Storm who dodged.Storm’s smirk widened as he saw Magebreaker’s atte

    “ What are you going to do to me?” Derek asked. He glared at Storm who didn't seem to care about the way he looked at him.“Derek, King of hell. You are hereby banished for the three realms. You would live in exile for the rest of your life. You are forever immortal and no matter what you do, you would never die. Birds would feed on you, you would never find peace no matter what you do.” Derek laughed maniacally after he spoke. As Storm turned to leave, Derek yelled, “I hope you die just like your parents did.” Storm paused at the door and only glanced at him before he left.Walking out of the palace, he noticed that everywhere was quiet, except for the hoots of owls. Storm didn't waste much time and closed the gate to the three realms. The gate to the three realms was a portal of unimaginable power and complexity, he quickly shut the portal, severing the connection between the three realms that had caused so much chaos. The air around the gate shimmered with a lot of energy. The atm

    “What are you waiting for?” Immediately, he heard the voice, he turned and looked at Storm in shock, not knowing what to say. Derek stared at Storm speechless, he was supposed to be dead. At that moment, Storm was more like a celestial being. All his injuries had been healed, and he was looking like a newly transformed person. The transformation was so astonishing that it left him speechless, his mind raced as he stared at Storm. How was this possible? He should be dead? Derek quickly glanced at Storm's right hand and noticed it was intact, he looked around him but still saw the severed hand beside him. How was that possible? This shouldn't be happening. It wasn't a part of his plans, everything he had learnt about the Orb didn't have to do with this. Could it being a dead person back to life?Storm stood there, looking strong and his body glowed as bright as the orb. His once tattered clothes were now different , better than before and his skin had no injury on it. The contrast betw

    Storm laid down on the ground and thought about everything. Not just his own end, but the end of everything he fought for, everything he believed in. He had promised to save the world, to change everything back and now he was about to give up.He could hear the echoes of his own words, the promises he made to his friends and Lillian. "I will fix everything," he said, with all the conviction of a man who thought he could change everything immediately he entered the other realm. But fate, it seems, has a sense of humor. Derek had told him he was supposed to die at the end, he didn't believe him at first but here he was lying on the floor on the verge of dying.Storm remembered the faces of his friends. He could remember their smile, Keith's smirk he always seemed to have on, Lucy's perfect eyebrows she always raised when she was angry, Ella's warm smile and Kade’s perfect smile. Their eyes had been filled with trust and high hopes and it haunted him now. They had believed in him, and

    Seeing the figure standing up again, Storm's heart beat faster. He couldn't beat Derek without the Orb but he needed to fight him before getting the Orb. The pressure he felt from him was enormous, a suffocating weight that pinned him to the spot. He could barely move, his muscles strained against an invisible force. His heart pounded in his chest, each beat echoing like a drum in his ears. The air around him seemed to thicken, making it hard to breathe. He knew he had no other choice but to fight, yet every fiber of his bones screamed at him to run.“You know, no one has ever tried to fight me but you tried, I'll give you that. Even my daughter couldn't beat me, what made you think you could?” Derek laughed loudly his voice reverberating against the walls.“You are a horrible person. A horrible father, a horrible ruler!” Storm yelled.“Oh, I know that. I am sure my daughter told you about our history. I never wanted a daughter but I got unlucky, I need someone strong, powerful bu
