Location - Böser geist
The air within Lord Agragar's dark, oppressive castle was heavy with malice. Two demons, the highest-ranking generals of the Demon Lord, knelt before the colossal throne that dominated the chamber. The sound of chains rattling echoed as Lord Agragar, his presence as a hurricane of dread and power, emerged from the shadows and seated himself upon his throne.
His plum reddish eyes are glowing,"Proceed, my slaves," Agragar commanded, his voice an earthquake that rumbled through the souls of all who heard it.
The two demons, the pinnacle of terror, one of the strongest warriors in the demon realm and the General commandars of demon army.
Mirauza, the sly and ambitious sixth-ranked General commander, broke the silence. "My lord, I don't understand your continued silence on the matters of Yathra World, if you give me the chance, I will bring you whatever you desire."
Feroza, the fourth-ranked General commander, turned his crimson gaze toward Mirauza, a smirk curling his lips. "How dare you speak so casually to Lord Agragar? Do you think you can question his decisions?"
The air grew as tense as Mirauza's fury erupted. "Watch your tongue, fool! I would never dare commit such insolence!"
Their snarling quickly turned into a heated exchange, their voices clashing like thunder. Suddenly, Agragar's voice cut through the chaos, a monstrous roar that made the walls quake.
"Silence!" His voice carried such force that their very mouths shattered apart, silenced by the cruel manifestation of his power,"I didn't give permission to talk yourselves".
Both demons regenerated their shattered jaws, their faces pale with terror. "Forgive us, my lord," they stammered in unison.
Agragar leaned forward, a sinister smile stretching across his face. "Patience, my loyal generals. We have waited a thousand years. A little longer, and all we desire shall be ours. My desire is going to happen soon." His laughter, chilling and triumphant, echoed through the castle, a sound that promised doom.

Location: Laconis City College - Battlefield
The scene shifted abruptly to a fierce battle raging in the desolate ruins of Laconis City College. Azad, the chosen hero, faced off against a towering demon, its form grotesque yet commanding. Blood splattered the ground as the demon regenerated its severed leg and healed a gaping wound in its chest.
Azad's eyes narrowed as he observed the creature's unnervingly rapid recovery. "So, demons can regenerate this fast..." He muttered, gripping his twin katanas tightly.
The demon suddenly chanted, its guttural voice booming, "Flames gather, burn through- Inferno core"
A sphere of destructive Fire blast coming out from the demon's hands hurtled toward Azad, tearing through the air with a deafening roar and burst out like an erupting volcano. In a blink, Azad vanished, dodging the attack with unparalleled speed. He landed nimbly, his heart pounding as he processed what he had just witnessed.
"This Demon has this much of power? This is no ordinary opponent," Azad thought, his grip tightening.
The demon chuckled darkly, its voice dripping with malice. "Oh, you're an amusing one. Let's make this interesting."
Before Azad could respond, the demon charged at him with terrifying speed. Azad swung his katana in a precise arc, aiming for the creature's neck, but the demon caught the blade mid-swing and flung Azad aside like a ragdoll. Azad flipped mid-air, landing on his feet, only to see the demon preparing another Fire blast.
Again the demon despair voice rang out the place, "Flames gather, burn through, inferno core" the destructive fire blast outburst from his hands like an erupting volcano.
Dodging the fiery explosion once more in running sideways, Azad chanted, "Power of thunder... Dancing Thunder God!"
Bolts of lightning crackled around him, striking the demon with electrifying precision. Azad surged forward, his katanas glowing with thunderous energy, and unleashed a flurry of slashes. Each strike sent arcs of electricity tearing through the demon's form, but the creature dodged most of them and ascended into the sky.
From above, the demon bellowed and raised his hands towards the sky, "Recoil of thunder, Supreme lightning... Magnum Thunderbolt!"
A massive thunderbolt descended from the heavens, its blinding light consuming Azad. He crossed his katanas to block the attack, the sheer force driving him to his knees. The ground beneath him cracked as he struggled against the onslaught. Blood trickled from his forehead, his strength waning.
The demon landed with a thunderous crash, grinning. "Impressive! Only a few survivors withstand my thunderbolt... I am Youdhra, and I demand your name, warrior."
Azad wiped the blood from his forehead, a faint smile breaking through his fatigue. "The one who will destroy you."
Youdhra laughed, a booming sound that shook the battlefield. "Such arrogance! Let's see you back it up."
Azad's eyes gleamed as he channeled the last of his thunderous energy. He launched a bolt of lightning from his katana, aiming directly at Youdhra's stomach. The attack struck true, piercing through the demon's defenses and leaving a gaping, smoldering wound on his stomach.
Youdhra roared in agony, his body trembling as he struggled to regenerate. The wound healed slowly, his once-formidable recovery hindered by the sheer force of Azad's attack.
Azad stood tall, his energy low but his resolve unshaken. He laughed, a sound filled with both defiance and determination.
Youdhra became shocked and realized with hatred, "He absorbed the half of my thunderbolt attack in his katanas and waited for the right time to attack me. He has strong durability."
Youdhra glared at him with burning hatred. "You'll regret that, mortal."
The battle raged on between Azad and Youdhra, their clash echoing through the desolate ruins. No one bore witness to this monumental fight-an exchange so intense, it seemed to alter the very fabric of the world around them.
Azad gripped his katanas tightly, his eyes blazing with determination. He began to chant, "Recoil of thunder, supreme lightning, Magnum thunderbolt." Youdhra eyes widened in shock. "Impossible", he muttered, a mix of admiration and disbelief flashing across his face. "He copied my technique? Or he already learned it? He's not an ordinary opponent like I've faced before."
The sky roared in response to Azad's words, a colossal thunderbolt streaking down towards Youdhra. The demon was quick on his feet, drew his massive double sided axe and intercepted the bolt. The air crackled as the force of the thunder collided with Youdhra's weapon.
Youdhra smirked and began his chant, "stone and rock, forge a barrier, a skin of stone, stone skin." His body shimmered as an impenetrable layer of rock enveloped him, neutralizing the thunderbolt's power.
Azad's breath hitched. "Fire, thunder and now earth? This demon is unlike any demon I've faced before..." He clenched his fists, realizing the severity of his opponent's strength. "I have to end this now, before it's too late."
Youdhra chuckled, his voice dripping with menace. "I admire your spirit, warrior. Let's see how long you last."
He hurled his axe with tremendous force, slicing through the air like a missile. Azad leapt high, narrowly avoiding the deadly blow, and retaliated with a whirlwind of slashes from his katanas. Sparks of fire and thunder erupted from each swing, forcing Youdhra to reclaim his axe and dodge in turn.
The battlefield became a storm of light and sound as their weapons clashed repeatedly. Azad realized their speed and combat skills were evenly matched, but Youdhra's raw strength tipped the scales. Resolving to shift the tide, Azad channeled his Aki energy into his hands, the golden glow pulsating with power.
"Power of thunder, thunder swarm!" Azad roared, swinging his katanas in rapid succession. A barrage of lightning surrounded Youdhra, striking relentlessly. The demon spun his axe, slashing through the bolts as he closed the distance with a swift, brutal strike, Youdhra landed a blow on Azad's stomach and face, sending him hurtling through the air.
Azad struggled to mid flight as Youdhra stomped the ground and chanted, "Earth trembles, spikes arise, upper smash!" Jagged spikes erupted from the earth, forcing Azad to dodge with nimble precision and flights in air. But Youdhra's wings unfurled and he ascended to meet Azad in midair. "You can fly too?" Youdhra sneered. "How many tricks do you have? Show me everything you got!"
They two clashed in midair, exchanging strikes with unparalleled ferocity. Azad focused his Aki energy into his legs, delivering a powerful kick to Youdhra's ribs, sending him crashing to the ground. Both combatants landed hard, glaring at each other with unrelenting resolve.
Azad took a step forward, his voice firm. "Why do you demons attack innocent lives? What do you gain from this destruction? Do you even understand the value of life?"
Youdhra burst into a sinister laugh, his voice reverbating through the battlefield. " Humans? Value? Don't make me laugh. You all are weak, insignificant creatures. This universe belongs to the strong. Power determines survival-the weak exist only to serve superior being like us."
Azad fury boiled over. "You're wrong! Humanity is not as weak as you think. You'll pay for your arrogance and for the life you've destroyed."
Youdhra smirked. "Then prove me, wrong."
Fueled by righteous anger, Azad launched himself at Youdhra, slashing with relentless precision. Each strike was met by the demon's axe, their weapons colliding in a dazzling display of sparks and fury.
Sensing the stalemate, Azad leaped and chanted, "Streak of lightning , Thunder convergence, heat lightning!"
A searing bolt of lightning tore through the air from his katanas, aiming directly for youdhra. The demon smirked and sidestepped with a predator's grave, the bolt missing its mark and obliterating the remains of a building behind him. The thunderous explosion sent debris flying, but Youdhra's focus remained unshaken.
Azad wasted no time. He sprinted alongside the demon, his movements a blur of calculated aggression. Channeling his Aki energy into his katanas, he slashed at youdhra with unrelenting ferocity. But the demon was prepared, his axe meeting every strike with practised ease.
Then in a swift encounter, Youdhra drove his knee into Azad's stomach with devastating force. The chosen hero was sent hurtling backward, crashing into the ruins at the buildings. Smoke and rubble enveloped the scene, obscuring the Azad figure.
From within the smoke, Azad struggled to his feet, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. His mind raced as he assessed the situation. "How can I defeat him? He's stronger, faster... Unstoppable."
Youdhra's heavy footsteps echoed ominously as he approached his towering form loomed over the ruins, his voice a guttural growl: "I warned you, warrior. Your kind is nothing but prey for us, inferior beings. Why do you persist? Why do you fight a battle you cannot win?"
Azad, his body battered but his spirit unbroken, narrowed his eyes his gaze fell upon the wound on Youdhra's stomach from that thunderbolt attack. His regenerative powers were faltering. A spoke of hope ignited in Azad's heart.
Wiping the blood from his mouth, Azad straightened, a sly grin spreading across his face. "You're wrong, demon, you're the one who's doomed. Your end is near."
Youdhra's lips curled into a cruel smile. "Still clinging to hope are you? Very well. Show me what you can do, warrior."
Azad launched himself forward with newfound determination. His strikes came fast and fierce, but Youdhra dodged with ease his movements almost mocking. Azad's frustration grew, but his sharp mind stayed focused on the plan forming within him. "I still didn't master these techniques, but I have no choices than use it."
Suddenly, he stopped and chanted with an unwavering resolve: "Power of fire, blazing crescent strike!"
A crescent shaped arc of fire surged toward Youdhra's head, its searing heat cutting through the air. Youdhra smirked, raising his axe to meet the fiery slash. "Pathetic. Do you really think you can touch me with this attack? Your aim is laughable!"
The fire slash shattered against Youdhra's axe, and he looked around for Azad- only to realize the warrior had disappeared. A flicker of confusion crossed the demon's face as he lowered his gaze.
There, crouched at his feet, was Azad, his katanas blazing with fiery energy. His voice rang out with fierce determination " Power of fire, Rising scorching sun!"
With an upward slash, Azad unleashed a torrent of fire directly into Youdhra's wounded stomach. The flames tear through the flesh and organ, the sheer force of the attack driving the demon stomach. Blood and smoke filled the air as Youdhra's staggered, clutching at the gaping wound now consuming his abdomen.
Azad stood tall, his katana dripping with the demon's blood. His golden aura flared, brighter and more powerful than before. Youdhra's expression shifted, a glimmer of grudging respect flickering in his eyes with eyes with grudging admiration.
"He aimed for my head... That fire slash, blazing crescent strike, it's an incomplete strike . It was deliberate. It's a distraction-no, a deception! He didn't intend to hit me. It was meant to block my vision, to force my attention upward while he moved below. He is masking his movements with precision."
"And then... He was already there, crouched like a predator waiting to pounce. He calculated everything - my reaction, even the timing of my failing regeneration. That rising scorching sun... He channeled his fire into it would amplify the damage to my weakened flesh."
"Magnificent. That boy... Nah, that warrior... Is no ordinary human. He is a strategist. Every move he made, every strike he delivered - it was all part of a plan. He knew my weakness before, even I did. Magnificent, truly magnificent."
Azad gave no respite. Charging forward with ground. Shattering speed, he attacked Youdhra relentlessly. The Youdhra's axe barely kept up, the strain evident in his movements. Sensing his chance, Azad drove both katanas deep into Youdhra's stomach.
The battlefield erupted with his Aki energy, a golden radiance enveloping Azad. His voice was a roar of defience: "You piece of trash! You think your cruelty makes you superior? Humans fight for more than just survival. We fight for hope, for a future free of monsters like you?"
With a final burst of power, Azad thrust his blades into Youdhra's neck. The demon's body trembled his strength fading as blood poured from the fatal wound. Azad stepped back, his gaze cold and unwavering.
Azad's voice carried across the battlefield, resolute and victorious: "one day, humanity will rise above all. Your reign of terror will be over."
Gathering the last of his strength, Azad unleashes his final attack: "Rebirth of flame, across of flame, give birth to the dragon, ignite fire dragon!"
A colossal dragon of fire roared into existence. It's Blazing form consuming Youdhra entirely. The demon's final thoughts echoed in the void: "Azad... You are truly destined to be the strongest. I accept my defeat. You're a truly magnificent warrior."
The dragon's fiery maw closed, obliterating Youdhra completely. As the flames died down, Azad stood victorious, and bathered from a testament to humanity's indomitable spirit.
The narrator's voice thundered: "And so, the chosen hero stood tall, his victory a beacon of hope for all. But the journey was far from over. Azad's true destiny had only just begun."
