The battle between Maria and Melia reached its climax, each drawing on the depths of her hatred and resentment to try to kill the other. Blows rained down relentlessly, and the air seemed to crackle with the force of their confrontation. Despite their rage, both fighters were exhausted, their energy rapidly depleting.
In a final burst of desperation, Melia gathered all her remaining strength and delivered one last devastating blow. Maria, hit full force, collapsed violently to the ground. Her body, broken by the impact, lay motionless in an eerie silence.
Melia, panting and covered in sweat, struggled to her feet and made her way towards her mother, Celena, who was still in shock. As she approached, an unfamiliar, luminous voice echoed around her: "This world is about to change."
Meanwhile, Maria, feeling her life slipping away, looked up at the sky. Tears of blood streamed down her cheeks as she whispered weakly, "Dad... Mum... I'm sorry." Her eyes clouded over, but before she lost consciousness, she saw something terrifying. The sky, once blue, was darkening. She looked down and saw hell below her, a fiery abyss that seemed to be calling her.
Maria fell, her soul detaching from her body and plunging into hell. She landed abruptly on the fifth floor, where she found only devastated landscapes, a desert of fire and destruction. The heat was unbearable, and all around her were ruins.
Determined to survive, Maria set off across this ruined hell. She walked for what seemed like hours, perhaps days, before coming across a man dressed in rags, half-hidden in the shadow of a charred rock.
Maria, exhausted, approached him and asked, "Why is everything in ruins here?"
The man looked up and replied in a hoarse voice, "A being named Absoria and his army, the Army of the Void, have ravaged everything here. They destroyed everything in their quest for vengeance against the living beings who made them suffer, and against the heavens that allowed it to happen. They are now preparing for war against the heavens themselves."
Maria, intrigued, frowned. "How do you know all this?"
The man sighed and lowered his head. "Before I left, I was in that army... But I didn't have the strength to continue."
Maria remained silent, thinking. The idea of an alliance with the Army of the Void was forming in her mind. Perhaps they could help me achieve my revenge, she thought.
She turned to the man and asked, "Do you know where they are now?"
The man nodded. "Probably on the 100th floor of Hell. But reaching that place is almost impossible."
Maria, stubborn, did not let herself be discouraged. "Isn't there a faster way to reach them?"
The man thought for a moment before answering, "I could open a breach that would take you to the 87th floor, but you'll have to manage the rest on your own."
Without hesitation, Maria accepted. The man chanted an ancient spell, and a crack appeared in the air in front of them, widening to form a dark portal. Maria thanked him with a nod and rushed through the breach.
Meanwhile, at the top of Hell, Absoria and his generals were intensifying their training. Absoria, aware that the final battle was approaching, strengthened his skills, preparing his army for the confrontation with the heavens.
Maria, now on the 87th floor, was closer than ever to the Army of the Void. But she knew that to reach them, she would have to face new dangers and prove her worth. She clenched her fists, ready to do anything to achieve her revenge.
