In all his life, Draven had never experienced defeat.

All his battles, he had won them by a landslide using his infamous trick.

Catching his opponent off guard and delivering that one fatal blow had always worked.

He relies on his speed and precisions with his swordsmanship. This had made him an undefeated swordsman for years.

Until now.

Arthur's hand tightened around Draven's neck, leaving Draven's legs suspended in the air.

Draven couldn't breath. There was a glint in Arthur's eyes that he didn't like. For the first time in his life, his confidence waned and fear gripped his heart.

"Please don't kill me," he choked, "I'll do anything. Just let me live."

Arthur raised an eyebrow, "What's that? You didn't hesitate to kill me a while ago. Why should I spare you?"

Draven was at loss of words. His entire face was as pale as snow and he like he could pass out at anytime.

"Mercy," he pleaded. "Show me mercy. I'm sorry for killing you."

Arthur's eyes diverted to Lily, "Lily, tell me

His domain was mainly made up of dungeons and caves where monsters and humans alike are enslaved. As such, Lord Morok was tasked with the duty of imprisoning the Valiant Vanguard. Since the demise of Arthur, no man dares rebel against the Devil King. They were afraid of what the Devil King might do to them. If there was one thing Lord Morok hated more than anything else in the world was humans? "They're weaklings and shouldn't be given the freedom to breath. They're utterly useless," he always says. But the Devil King has his uses for mankind which was why he hadn't destroyed them. It irritated Lord Morok when orders were given from the Devil King that Lance and the Valiant Vanguard were not to be harmed. They were to remain as trophies in Lord Morok's prison.

Active volcanoes dotted the landscape, spewing forth ash and fire into the thick, oppressive air.Looking up, Arthur noticed the sky was painted in hues of crimson and black. "The air is heavy and suffocating," Arthur whispered under his breath. "I can hardly breathe well."Arthur turned to Lord Morok who stood at a distance, watching him. "What is this place?" he asked, his voice hard.Lord Morok chuckled wickedly, his voice was filled with sadistic pleasure. "Welcome to my Demonic Zone, Arthur," he said, his eyes gleaming intently with evil. "In this realm, I reign supreme. Here, the very fabric

    Arthur stared at the innocent looking young boy who stood before him, his eyes like glass. The boy was mute as if he couldn't speak and there was a faraway look in his eyes that made Arthur uncomfortable. "I can't face someone so young and weak," Arthur shook his head. "What is this? A joke?"Suddenly he stiffened into shock as the boy's body began to transform before his eyes.The child's height increased rapidly, his limbs stretching and his muscles bulging with unnatural growth. Arthur took a step back, his eyes widening in disbelief as the once-small boy transformed into a towering figure, standing like a mountain of flesh and muscles.

The silence was deafening and it took Arthur a moment to compose himself before addressing his comrades. He began to speak with a solemn expression. "Guys, I know you've been through hell while I was away. I apologize. I was overconfident and reckless, and it cost us dearly. I should never have underestimated Draven. My arrogance led to my downfall and left all of you to suffer in my absence. I am truly sorry."Lance stepped forward, his voice was sincere. "Arthur, you don't have to apologize.

    Arthur arrived at his parents' house, his heart pounding in his chest. Nervousness gripped him as he stood before the familiar door, having not been with them for ages. Memories of the past flooded his mind, the hurtful words they said to him, and how they rejected him for being a failure in life. Taking a deep breath, he tried to push those thoughts aside, reminding himself that he only wanted to see them for the last time, to find closure and perhaps even to forgive them. As he reached for the doorknob, his mind played a cruel slideshow of all the terrible things they said about him. The pain from the past resurfaced, and he could still feel the physical and verbal abuse that he endured before running away from home.He wondered if he would be able to meet their eyes, to face the ones who had hurt him so deeply.

As the gods arrived, they saw Arthur seated at his magnificent throne, his divine aura radiating with power and determination.The gods of Astralia were among those who stood before Arthur, their faces reflecting disapproval and disbelief. They had doubted that Arthur could return and defeat Astorath, but here he was, the new Supreme Celestium.Beside him, Celestia sat with their baby in her arms. Her presence added an air of grace and serenity to the gathering.Arthur stood up, and all eyes were on him as he addressed the assembly. "My fellow gods, today marks the beginning of a new era in the realms. I stand here not as a conqueror, but as a protector and guide for all beings."The gods of Astralia looked unconvinced. The hate in their eyes was evident enough for all to notice. Arthur continued, turning his attention to them. "You gods left Astralia for your vacation

    Arthur looked into Astorath's eyes, and saw a gleeful smile on Astorath's face. Astorath spoke, "This battle is over. I've won."In that moment, Astorath unleashed a devastating blast of energy that exploded Arthur into ashes. The force of the blast left nothing but smoke and ashes where Arthur once stood.Astorath rubbed his hands on his chest, feeling disgusted. "Weak." He was certain there was no way Arthur could survive that obliteration.Suddenly, the wind grew strong and swarmed around Arthur's ashes. Astorath watched, feeling a warning in his mind, but before he could react, something extraordinary happened.From the ashes rose a powerful surge of Phoenix flames, swirling and igniting in a blaze of vibrant colours. The flames took shape, and there, emerging from the fiery inferno, was Arthur, renewed and transformed.His body was engulfed in the majestic Phoenix flames, and his eyes glowed with a divine radiance. The very essence of rebirth and resilience emanated from hi

    Astorath's created razor-sharp energy blades that filled the air, making it difficult for Arthur to maneuver. Arthur remained composed, channeling his inner strength, determination, and experiences as he gripped his sword, which shimmered with divine light. With a swift motion, Astorath released his celestial blades, sending them hurtling towards Arthur like a barrage of shining projectiles. Arthur's movements were swift and evasive as he dodged the blades using bursts of divine energy to propel himself through the air.Then he retaliated with a burst of his own divine energy, a radiant wave that scattered the celestial blades in all directions. Astorath's eyes narrowed in surprise at the display of power. "Impressive. Your rapid growth in swordplay is second to mine but it would take a lot more than that to defeat me."The two gods closed the distance between them, their swords clashing with a resounding impact. Their energies intertwined, creating a magnificent display of divin

    Arthur was surprised at Celestia. He stammered, "We can't do this? You're a god..."She chuckled and waved her hand dismissively. "Don't be a dunce, Arthur. Look, we're both gods, and we can still procreate."Arthur was taken aback by her response. "But we can't. Why? What good would it do?"Celestia sat on the bed, facing him, and stared directly into his eyes. "Let me explain," she said gently. "In the realm of gods, there's a balance of power, much like the concept of Yin and Yang. By combining our powers, we create a unique energy that embodies the best of both of us."Arthur looked puzzled. "And how would that help me face Astorath?"Celestia smiled, her eyes gleaming with desire. "When two individuals with complementary Yin and Yang qualities come together, their energies combine to create a harmonious and balanced relationship. When you and I mate, we shall create a flow of energy stronger than any god."Arthur couldn't believe his ears. "You mean if we mate, I'd gain an incre

He won't rest until he did that.As he strolled through the city, lost in thought, he passed by the bank when suddenly he heard gunshots. His instincts kicked in, and he realized there was a hold-up happening inside.He stiffened, knowing that people's lives were at risk. He felt his hand balling into a fist. What kind of a man would he be if he didn't save those people?Then, a risky idea struck him. What if he allowed himself to be killed again? Perhaps dying might lead him back to Astralia.With newfound determination, he hurried into the bank, surprising the robbers. They pointed their guns at him, yelling, "Get down or we shoot!"But Arthur stared back at them defiantly. "Well, go ahead. Shoot me."The robbers were perplexed by his fearlessness, exchanging puzzled glances. One of them warned him again, but Ar
