Aji walked quietly in the middle of the city carrying a bag containing hundreds of millions of money. His gaze was blank. He didn't know where he was going. There was nothing Aji could think of. He just stepped without direction and purpose. 

"This is grudge. The favor is only at the beginning. After that, the mind and heart become empty." 

A voice suddenly sounded. Aji stopped his footsteps on the spot. 

"Who is it?" asked Aji while looking for the origin of the sound. 

"Calm down. It's me, Skotd. I'm talking through the space of the Boundary." 

"Boundary Space?" Aji felt confused. But he realized that Skotd's voice seemed to come from his head.  

'Is this real?' asked Aji to his heart.

"Of course it's real. You think, you're a kid who likes to play with imaginary friends?" replied Skotd who knew Aji's heart. 

Aji felt annoyed when his mind was read. 

"What do you want?" asked Aji in an annoyed voice.

"Why do you have to talk like that? You can speak using your inner voice. If you speak with your mouth, people will see you crazy for talking to yourself," Skotd said. 

Aji pressed his jaw together. Now he knows why his mind can be read. 

"Just tell me, what do you want?" asked Aji with a heart. 

"Nothing. I just want to talk to you. It's been thousands of years that I've been sealed and only recently was able to come out again. It feels so relieved," replied Skotd. 

"I don't have time to serve you. Anyway, soon you will be free. This earth will be destroyed. So shut up!" said Aji.

"Oh, really? Gosh.... You're so kind. Finally I can be free too. That means, you're going to kill that Goddess, right?" asked Skotd. 

"No. I can't kill her."

"Then how are you going to free me if you don't kill her?" asked Skotd in surprise. 

"By letting the planet lose to Ragnarok. I won't participate in that fight," Aji replied.

"Is it that by you not participating in Ragnarok, the earth will lose? Are you that sure?" 

"I'm not too sure. But after I think about it, I'm not sure the world government can win this Ragnarok? I'm sure those ugly creatures will defeat the planet. In view of their technology. I'm sure, their weapons are much more advanced."

"It's not a guarantee. This planet can be destroyed if this planet does not participate or suffers consecutive defeats until it gets the last rank. But if the planet is still in a safe position, then the destruction of the planet does not occur. You have to remember, only the 2 lowest planets will be removed from the solar system."

"Take it easy. If indeed this planet still survives. I'm going to kill myself. That way you will be free," Aji replied.

Skotd laughed. And his laughter was loud enough to make Aji's head feel like it was about to explode.

"Are you stupid? Of course, it's not that easy. You think, your ancestors didn't die when I was still in their bodies? Do you think that when they die I am immediately free? Not. See! I'm still here. I won't be able to leave your clan until the goddess of light who sealed me is killed by your clan. That means you have to kill that goddess of light if you really want to free me," Skotd explained.

"It's so troublesome. Then I can't help you," Aji chirped.

Skotd was exasperated. Besides being annoyed because of Aji's erratic attitude. Skotd is also upset because he feels that Aji does not have the spirit to live.

"Then just die now? There's no need to delay until Ragnarok ends!" said Skotd furiously. 

"That's what I'll do after I manage to spend this money. Before I die, I want to have fun and eat full," Aji retorted. 

Skotd was even more furious. He then did something so that he could master half of Aji's body. 

"Then just burn all this money!" said Skotd trying to get out the money in the backpack. 

Aji, who was surprised that half of his body was moving without his will, immediately stopped that half of his body. 

"What the hell?" asked Aji, not confused. 

"Shut up! I will burn and throw away all this money!"

Now Aji felt half of his lips move on their own. He could hardly believe what happened to half of his body. His left body is completely moving on its own. 

"Thousands of years I was sealed in that light without being able to do anything and without being able to see anything! Makes me very tormented. I hope that when I am called back, I can fight and release all my boredom after being sealed for thousands of years. But you, you even made me more tormented by your attitude of giving up on your own life! If you know this, I'd rather be sealed again than be in the body of someone who doesn't even have the intention to live!" 

Between being confused about what happened to half of his body and the money that was about to be thrown away, Aji tried to hold back his left hand that had scooped dozens of bills.

"What's going on! Is this what you did?" asked Aji.

"Who else do you think?! I will make you more miserable than this!" 

"Stop the fuck!" said Aji, who was still trying to hold back his left hand. 

Some people around Aji, felt astonished to see Aji acting strangely. They wondered what Aji was doing. They also wondered where Aji got the hundreds of thousands of bills, which amounted to so much. 

"Do we just have to contact the police? It's obvious that he has robbed the bank!" said one person.

"Don't, it's not necessary. Since he robbed, then we can take all the money from him without fear of being entangled in the law!" Don't call the police!" said someone else.

Without knowing what really happened, about 23 people who were there tried to surround Aji. They prepare to stealing the bag Aji is carrying. However, unexpectedly, Aji suddenly made a hard kick. One of them was hit by the kick and immediately bounced far away until his body hit a tree. And made the bounced person instantly unconscious. 

Some people who intended to stealing the money in Aji's hands became scared. Seeing one of the people who was immediately bounced off by Aji's kick made them shrink their guts.

"If you dare to touch this money just a little bit, I will kill you!" threatened Aji. 

Everyone took a step away. But they still pay attention to Aji. They still hope to get the money in the bag.  

"Stop it!" pleaded Aji refocusing on Skotd. 

"Don't want to! If I have to suffer, then you have to suffer too!" retorted Skotd. 

Realizing that this dispute would not come to fruition, Aji tried to give in a little.

"Well, then say what you want?" 

"Kill that Goddess of Light. If you can't, then join the Ragnarok battle! I don't want a boring life until I'm sealed again!" said Skotd. 

Aji gritted his teeth. The two things that Skotd wanted, of course, were not things Aji wanted to do. However, in order to be able to enjoy hundreds of millions in hand, Aji must be willing to do one of them. 

"Okay, I'll do it. I will participate in the Ragnarok fight," said Aji. But his heart said otherwise.

'There is a gap of a month and a half until Ragnarok starts. In that time, I will spend all this money for fun. After that I can ignore that fight!' inner Aji.

Skotd, who knew the contents of Aji's head, immediately showed his protest. He immediately threw dozens of bills into the air. Which was immediately greeted by the people who wanted to rob Aji's money. 

"Don't you think I don't know your foul intentions!" said Skotd as he threw the money.

"Alright.... I'm really going to fight!" said Aji.

Skotd knew that Aji's words were forced. Skotd knew Aji's feelings were still heavy. However, Skotd also realized that Aji meant it this time. 

"Good. Then we have to train immediately!" said Skotd. 

"Training? For what?" asked Aji.

"Of course it is to follow that Ragnarok! Do you think with you who can now win? You need to know, our opponents are not random creatures. They are tough opponents!" said Skotd.

    Being patient, is the most difficult thing to do. And that's really what Aji feels every second of it. His heart often wavered and wanted to come out of hiding to look for animals directly.

But remember, don't get hurt. If not, then our history is over– ah no. Not us. I mean, it's your history that is coming to an end." "What are you talking about?

There are also those who do competitions by looking for 1 soldier with good physical condition and also strong. There are also those who are looking for soldiers with martial skills. In general, selection is not focused on the military. Civilians are also allowed to participate. Of course with great rewards.

    The sound of the flowing river sounded softly in the ears. The air is cool and the smell of grass, felt in the five senses. On the bank of the riverbank, a man and a woman sat there. The faces of the two were not clearly visible. Because the falling afternoon sunlight refracted the faces of the two. "I will always take care of you. No matter where you are," the man said.The woman then leaned her head on the man's shoulder. "Take me wherever you go. Don't leave me alone," the woman retorted." Aji looked at the two people from behind. Aji didn't know what the conversation between the two meant. He also didn't know who the two of them were. "Where is this?" inner Aji as he looked around. But there is only a river ripen with two people. The air was suddenly blown violently. Made some fallen leaves scattered with the sweep of the wind.

    The sky was still gray when Aji and Cecilia left the hospital. The streets still seem deserted. "It's still quiet, isn't it?" asked Cecilia as she watched every corner of the street from above. Aji, who focused on carrying Cecilia on his back while jumping from roof to roof, took the time to look down. "It's still 5 o'clock in the morning. There are still many people sleeping," Aji replied. Before she died in the hospital, Cecilia took the time to leave a piece of paper that she placed on the table. The letter contained an apology. As well as the explanation that he only left for a while and would return before night. "Is it okay for you to leave a letter?" asked Aji, who was still anxious. He was worried that Cecilia's departure would make the hospital excited. "It's okay. Don't think about it. Today I want to be free to enjoy this day. So don't talk about it," Cecilia replied. "I see, huh? Alright then. Tight grip! We will move faster," said Aji, who immediately increased his

    4 Days passed. Aji's health has fully recovered. The same goes for Aira. She has recovered. However, both of her hands have not been able to function again. Of course, Aira's hands were not damaged or injured. Both hands can be said to be healthy. However, her hands have no shadow. That's why Aira's hands didn't work. And because of this, the medical staff who treated Aira, came to Aji two days earlier. They wanted Aji to restore Aira's hands to function again.But when the medics asked Aji, Skotd was weak and could not be questioned. Because only Skotd knew the technique. And most likely, only Skotd can help. So right when Aji was fully recovered, she immediately went to where Aira was."Skotd, please restore both of Aira's hands. She can't compete if both hands aren't working," Aji pleaded through the Boundary room."I just woke up and you're asking for something impossible. Have you lost your mind?" Skotd replied lazily. Hearing that, Aji was a little surprised. But he still thoug

    Venus stood in front of Aji's recovery room. She wanted to go in but she was hesitant. For some reason she felt that her intention would disturb Aji. "Will it be another time? He and I aren't that close anyway. Why would I visit him?" Venus muttered.With that in mind, Venus was about to leave. But she had not gone far. The door to the recovery room opened. Suddenly Venus turned her head in that direction. She thought it was the doctor on duty. So she wanted to ask the doctor to find out Aji's condition. But Venus was quite surprised because it was not a doctor she found. Instead, it was a woman with a beautiful and gentle face. "Who is she?" muttered Venus.The woman, who was Cecilia, looked at Venus as well. She recognized Venus quite well. Because she had seen Venus in battle several times. "Do you have anything to do with Aji?" asked Cecilia. She became so defensive when she saw Venus. Because Venus would be Aji's opponent in the final round. "Not really. I actually want to vi

    Aji opened her eyes. Her breathing felt heavy. So was her body. He could not move his body at all. Even moving his fingers was difficult. "Where is this? Why do I feel so weak?" complained Aji. "You're being treated," replied someone whose voice he recognized.Aji looked to his left. And he saw Cecilia sitting there alone."Ceci-stop your trickery! I can no longer lie to you!" Aji snapped at Cecilia. He suspected that Cecilia's figure was Queen Nebula who was changing her form to look like Cecilia. So that she can deceive and do inappropriate things.Cecilia put on a confused face. She did not understand why Aji suddenly snapped at her."What's wrong with you?" asked Cecilia with a confused look on her face. "No need to pretend! I'll say it again! I won't be fooled a second time! My feelings! My love! Only for Cecilia! You can't force me to love you! Your love is just a fake anyway! You just want to make me your puppet!"

    Aira was quite panicked. But she quickly calmed herself down so she wouldn't get carried away. Because if that happened, she would be easier to defeat. Aira tried to move her left hand. But her left hand was completely immobilized. "What did he just do?" Aira kept her guard up. She didn't want to miss again. "From above!" Skotd's voice rang out again.Aira looked up. She actually saw Skotd plunge from above. But strangely, the gamma rays she emitted could not capture Skotd's movements. It wasn't until Skotd made a sound that Aira knew Skotd's position. In slow motion. Aira felt that Skotd was trying to play a trick on her. "He really underestimated me! I'll make him disappointed!" Aira determined.Within reach, the two clashed swords. With her great strength, Aira swung her sword hard. "Die!" cried Aira.But when the two swords met, they didn't hit each other. Skotd's sword pierced through Aira's sword instead. With her eyes, Aira could see how Skotd's sword penetrated hers. An

    Aji was breathing heavily. The only ability she could rely on was her shadow shield. However, even though he had used one of his defense techniques. Still, Aira could still attack. Because the impact of Aira's attack was much greater than before. Even Aji still had to dodge to reduce the direct impact of Aira's attack."She's really perfect. She has incredible strength and speed. Moreover, she has very troublesome eyes. No matter what she shoots, if those eyes are active it's impossible to miss," Aji thought. "You're right. And with this ability, she excels in one-on-one combat," said Skotd. "Do you have any other ideas?" Aji asked. Skotd frowned. "Why do you always ask me for ideas? Look, my contribution is already huge. You've consumed at least 3 percent of my power. Use that brain of yours to think," Skotd said. "I still can't read. How can I read a situation like this? Besides, you have more experience than me. So help me!" Aji exclaimed.Skotd chuckled in annoyance."You are

    Aira continued to shoot at Aji relentlessly. It was as if the bullets Aira fired were endless. Aji, who was struggling, could only hold on and make sure his body wasn't pushed further back. "It's not funny if I lose because of an attack like this!" Aji thought.Aji immediately looked for a way out. He didn't want to be Aira's bullshit. But after Aji thought for a while he couldn't find a way out. Many of the shadow techniques he mastered were ineffective against Aira. "The only way to beat her is with speed. You need to be one level ahead of Aira's bullet speed," Skotd said. "Well, that's easy enough to say but impossible to do! There's no way I can increase my speed in such a short time, right?" retorted Aji."That's true. But there is a way," said Skotd. Aji furrowed her brow. She wondered how to increase her speed in a short period of time."How?""Swapping body parts," Skotd replied. Aji was increasingly unable to understand Skotd's too-brief explanation."Tell me clearly.

    The second battle was about to begin. Aji and Aira faced each other in the Arena. Aira's face was serious from the moment she stepped onto the arena stage. And the aura she exuded was gripping. It was as if the aura showed how serious Aira was about toppling Aji. "Don't you want to wear head protection first? I'm worried my bullets might kill you," Aira said. "Take it easy. My head is hard enough," Aji replied.Aira smiled at Aji's answer. She felt challenged enough to silence his words. "The second battle of the quarterfinals will begin! Fighters! Get ready!" said Ai.Instantly Aji and Aira both put up a ready position. Both of them realized when Ai gave permission to start the fight. So at that moment the battle of life and death began."FIGHT!!!" In less than half a second after the signal was called. Aji immediately made a circle of shadows. At the same time, Aira fired a single bullet at Aji's head. Aira's shot was fast and precise. Aji realized that Aira immediately attacke

Although he and Rozch have never talked to each other because both of them are quiet and passive. But as fellow warriors trying to protect their respective planets. Aji felt an obligation to visit Rozch. "I'll see Rozch first," Aji said to Aira.Aira, who was standing while leaning lazily on a support pole, straightened up. "I'm coming," Aira said. Aji was a little surprised. He did not know why Aira was so different from usual. Even though Aira's figure that Aji knew, had the same character as Rozch or herself. A quiet figure and always wants to move alone. But seeing Aira's attitude now, made Aji suspicious. Aji suspected Aira would do something. So Aji deliberately installed the Circle of Shadows to protect herself if Aira suddenly attacked. And what Aji did, Aira realized. So Aira spoke up about what Aji was doing."I'm not the type of person who likes to ch

    The battle between Rozch and Venus was a big hit. Many people were talking about the great battle. Even all the planets in the third star's orbit were talking about the fierce battle. And on earth, the atmosphere was so tense when the battle between Venus and Rozch began. Most of them became scared as soon as they saw the strength of Rozch and Venus. Although in the previous rounds there had been several tense battles. But the battle between Rozch and Venus was a new experience. Seeing that battle made them feel the war that happened 50 years ago. "If one of those creatures attacks Earth, are we ready to fight it?" said Antonio. He really didn't expect Venus' power to be so terrifying. Even when he saw the explosion at the end of Venus and Rozch's fight, Antonio was so scared that he couldn't breathe. He admitted that he still felt the fear of the nuclear war 50 years ago. Although he himself did not experience the war firsthand. But just by looking at the video evidence. Antonio ca
