Leo was exhausted, leaning on the support of the soldiers around him, and astonishment filled their faces as they wondered about the source of his mysterious power. Leo tried to comprehend what had happened, while tension filled the air of the battle. Suddenly, the color of the sky began to turn into a bloody red, as if warning of the coming of a great danger.
From among the fog, monstrous creatures appeared, huge, and in their midst stood Gladers, one of the leaders of the Council of the Four Sins, shouting: "Where is this boy? Where is he?"
At that moment, Dravis appeared, launching two glowing arrows of light toward the monstrous creatures, which received the blows with force, and advanced toward Leo with confidence. Gladers turned toward him and pointed at him, saying: "So you are this scoundrel!"
Dravis replied confidently: "I don't know who you want, but I think this is him." And he pointed with his hand toward Leo, who raised his head with force and shouted: "This is me!"
While whispering to himself, he uttered the name "Ban" as if summoning an unknown energy: "Why did I say this name? Why did I utter this word?"
Without hesitation, Leo rushed with his power toward the two creatures accompanying Gladers, and his mark glowed intensely, and with one blow, he finished them off with all firmness.
Gladers raised his fist toward Leo and said: "Then we will meet someday."
With Dravis's help, Leo avoided the fatal blow, and a huge rock collapsed behind him from its impact, as if the earth was shaking from the force of the blow. Suddenly, Gladers disappeared unexpectedly, leaving Leo and Dravis in confusion. Leo wondered in a low voice: "What happened now?"
After the battle ended, Leo was wondering: "What is this power? Why did I utter this name? And where did that scoundrel disappear?"
At that moment, the events shift to the kingdom of Guthers, where Gladers was anxious: "What happened? What is this power?"
Yuta asked him: "What happened?"
Gladers answered: "I don't know, but he uttered a strange name… maybe 'Ban'."
Yuta smiled, saying: "Then this is the boy who will awaken the Awakener."
The picture before them becomes clearer and clearer.
Leo and his companions returned to the kingdom, where King Dejer welcomed them at the palace gate, and they introduced Sheri. The king said: "So this is Sheri."
Leo answered: "Yes, she is here, but we don't know her intentions yet, but she definitely wants to destroy the army and power of Guthers."
The king replied: "Alright, we will surround her with four guards and keep her under surveillance because we don't know her intentions yet, but we welcome her here."
Sheri answered: "This is enough for me, and I am satisfied with that."
Then the king announced the honoring of Leo and Darin for their efforts, along with Dravis and Klaus, and added: "This after rest and preparations."
And he gestured for them to go to their rooms to get rest.
In the room, Dravis asked Leo about the reason for uttering the name "Ban," and Leo answered him: "I am confused, I want to know the meaning of these visions."
Dravis replied: "Maybe this brings you closer to your past."
And Leo remained thinking to himself, wondering about the meaning of those words and visions that pursue him.
Leo shook his head slowly, looking at the window where the stars were beginning to appear. "I don't remember anything clear. All I know is these visions that haunt me, like warnings or promises. The name 'Ban' echoes in my mind like an echo, and I feel that something bigger and stronger looms on the horizon. Will I be able to control it? Or will I become a tool in the hands of other forces?" Leo remained thinking to himself, wondering about the meaning of those words and visions, realizing that his fate is linked to them, and that the upcoming battles will be harder. He felt fear and excitement together, as if his life had just begun to reveal its deep secrets. While Dravis closes the door behind him, leaving Leo alone with his thoughts, the sky outside the window darkened gradually, as if reflecting the darkness that awaits everyone.
