Chapter 94 - The Truth

[Last Episode: Meanwhile, Iwan's story had just begun, and Marcos' true intentions were still unknown]

Chapter 94, Episode 94

[The group of four, consisting of Leo, Issac, Kiara, and Angela, set off on their journey to find Loseio]

[As they walked, Clarentio waved them a goodbye, his expression a mix of concern and hope]

[On their way, they stopped to buy resources, snacks, and food in case they ran out of items needed during their journey]

[Kiara spoke up]

Kiara: Now...it's going to take days to reach him. I tried contacting him, but no answer.

[Issac's curiosity got the better of him]

Issac: Is he really bossy?

[he asked, his eyes fixed on Kiara]

[Kiara smiled, a hint of amusement in her voice]

Kiara:I wouldn't say bossy. He is more like manipulating the minds of people.

[The word "manipulated" caught Leo's attention, and he smirked]

Leo: Manipulated, hmm...interesting word..

[he said, a sudden evil glint in his eye]

[Angela, oblivious to the sudden change in Leo's demeanor, asked Kiara]

Angela: By the way, Kiara...what's your ability?

[Kiara responded]

Kiara: My ability is Energy. I can drain the life of others and even control Energy power itself, even though Energy Power is the main system in the entire cosmos.

[Issac nodded, his eyes wide with interest]

Issac: I could see that...

[As they continued walking, they encountered traps on the ground]

[Kiara accidentally stepped on one, and Leo panicked immediately]

Kiara: What the...

[Issac quickly assessed the situation]

Issac: It seems like there are traps in the woods...

[Angela was about to figure things out when a large bull charged towards them]

[She turned behind her, pointing at the bull with her hands shaking]

Angela: Guys...behind us, run for your lives!

[Leo's eyes widened in alarm]

Leo: What about Kiara?

[Issac reassured him]

Issac: Don't worry, I got her...

[As Issac melted the traps, the group ran for their lives]

[The bull was fast, and Angela commented]

Angela: Dang...how fast is the bull? It almost seems like it's enchanted or something.

[Kiara nodded]

Kiara: Maybe!!

[As they ran, they reached a dead end, a cliff overlooking a vast sea below. Leo asked]

Kiara: Can y'all swim?

[Everyone nodded except for Kiara]

Kiara: No...

[she replied, her voice trembling]

[Angela was freaked out, but she grabbed Kiara, and they all jumped off the cliff, plunging into the water below]

[The bull watched them jump, thinking they were dead, and then left]

[The group struggled to stay afloat in the water, exhausted from the swim]

[Leo panted heavily]

Leo: I never knew this sea would completely drain us down.

[As they treaded water, Kiara asked]

Leo: How are we going to get out of here?

[Angela replied]

Angela: We need to find a way to climb up the cliff or swim to the shore.

[Issac nodded]

Issac: I'll try to find a way to climb up and see if I can find any help.

[As they continued to swim and try to find a way out, they knew they still had a long way to go before they reached Loseio]

[The journey was proving to be more challenging than they expected, and they would need all their strength and wits to overcome the obstacles ahead]

[Meanwhile, Loseio was still nowhere to be found, and the group couldn't shake off the feeling that they were being watched]

[As they swam towards the shore, they noticed a figure watching them from the distance]

[The figure was cloaked in shadows, making it impossible to discern any features]

Leo: Who's there?

[Leo called out, his eyes scanning the area]

[There was no response, but the figure didn't move. The group exchanged nervous glances, their hearts still racing from the swim]

Issac: We need to get out of here..

[Issac said, his voice low and urgent]

[As they swam closer to the shore, the figure vanished into thin air]

[The group breathed a sigh of relief as they reached the shore, but they knew they couldn't let their guard down]

Angela: Let's get moving, We don't know what dangers lie ahead

[Angela said, her eyes scanning the surrounding area]

[The group nodded in agreement, and they continued on their journey]

[In the vibrant world of "The Quagmire Slimes World," a district nestled far from the Nova Universe, a gathering of slimes took place]

[The air was filled with the soft squelching sounds of the slimes as they moved and interacted with one another]

[Crepitulimus, a particularly enthusiastic slime, stood at the forefront of the gathering]

Crepitulimus: Alright, for the kind of our slimes, we raise this cup of savior, that we ask the gods to grant us mercy and power..

[Crepitulimus declared, his voice filled with conviction]

[The other slimes repeated in unison]

"To the gods"

"To the gods"

[Their voices echoing through the world]

[Ignilimus, a slime with a fiery spirit, chimed in]

Ignilimus: To the gods.

[Papilimus, however, seemed less convinced]

Papilimus: Will the gods even grant our wish?

[he asked, his voice laced with doubt]

[Vegetalimus, a calm and collected slime, responded with confidence]

Vegetalimus: Yes, absolutely

[Sosanalimus, another slime, added]

Sosanalimus: They will grant us mercy, we may be weak, but the angels will help us.

[As the slimes continued their discussion, a group of knights from the Chaos Universe watched from the sidelines]

[Blaze, Haschwalth, Sao, and Matthaus were enjoying the scene, each with their own unique interest]

[Matthaus spoke up]

Matthaus: Wouldn't it make sense they just developed their own ability?

[Sao smirked in agreement]

Sao: Slimes can develop their own continuum of powers, but in different ways.

[Blaze's eyes widened in surprise]

Blaze: At least, I learned something new...hahaha.

[Sosanalimus walked up to them, overhearing their conversation]

[Sosanalimus explained]

Sosanalimus: We can, but it takes 1 week to develop our own magic, and it's hard, since we are slimes...

[The group listened intently, intrigued by the slimes' abilities]

[Blaze asked]

Blaze: A week, that's quite a long time. What kind of magic can you develop?

[Sosanalimus thought for a moment before responding]

Sosanalimus: It depends on the individual slime. Some might develop powerful elemental magic, while others might create unique abilities that suit their strengths and weaknesses.

[The group continued to discuss the slimes' abilities, fascinated by their potential]

[As they talked, the slimes around them began to demonstrate their skills, showcasing their unique abilities and strengths]

[The atmosphere was lively, with the slimes and the observers enjoying each other's company]

[However, amidst the joy and camaraderie, a sense of determination began to build]

[The slimes were eager to develop their own magic and prove themselves, while the young knights were intrigued by the potential they saw in these seemingly weak creatures]

[As the day drew to a close, the slimes bid each other farewell, their hearts filled with hope and anticipation]

[The Knights, too, departed, their minds buzzing with thoughts of the slimes' abilities and potential]

[The Quagmire Slimes World continued to thrive, its inhabitants working together and supporting one another as they strived to become stronger and more powerful]

[As the slimes continued their gathering, Blaze, Haschwalth, Sao, and Matthaus walked among them, learning more about their world and their abilities]

Blaze: It's fascinating to see how the slimes interact with each other,

[Blaze said, watching as two slimes merged and separated in a playful manner]

Haschwalth: Yes, they seem to have a strong sense of community, wonder if they would be willing to form an alliance with us.

[Haschwalth replied, his eyes scanning the area]

[Sao smiled]

Sao: I think they would be open to it. They seem like a peaceful and friendly species.

[Matthaus nodded]

Matthaus: And they could be a valuable asset in battle. Their abilities are quite unique.

[As they continued to observe and learn, Sosanalimus approached them]

Sosanalimus: Welcome, young warriors. We don't often get visitors from other universes. What brings you to our world?

[Blaze smiled]

Blaze: We're just exploring, and learning about different worlds and species. We're interested in forming alliances and learning from each other, we came the other day to observe yall..

[Sosanalimus nodded]

Sosanalimus: We would be happy to learn from you as well. Perhaps we can share some of our knowledge and abilities with each other.

[The group began to discuss the possibilities of an alliance, and the potential benefits it could bring to both their worlds]

[As they talked, the slimes began to gather around them, curious about the young warriors and their world]

[The atmosphere was lively, with both the slimes and the warriors laughing and discussing their differences and similarities]

[It was a moment of mutual discovery, and the beginnings of a potential friendship]

[As the day drew to a close, the group decided to formalize their discussion and schedule a meeting to discuss the details of their potential alliance]

[The slimes invited the warriors to join them in their city, and the group set off towards the heart of the Quagmire Slimes World]

[The city was a marvel of slime architecture, with buildings and structures made from a combination of slime and other materials]

[The group walked through the city, marveling at the unique designs and the slimes' ingenuity]

Sao: Oh... it is marvelous..

[As they walked, they came across a group of slimes gathered around a large stone pedestal]

[On top of the pedestal was a small, glowing crystal]

Matthaus: What's that?

[Matthaus asked, his curiosity piqued]

[Crepitulimus smiled]

Crepitulimus: That's the Heart of our World. It's a powerful crystal that amplifies our abilities and connects us to the universe.

[The group watched in awe as the slimes began to chant and glow with energy]

[The crystal began to pulse with power, and the air was filled with an electric charge]

[Suddenly, the crystal burst forth with energy, and the group was enveloped in a bright light]

[When the light faded, they found themselves in a different part of the world, surrounded by a group of slimes who were waiting for them]

Sosanalimus: Welcome to our training grounds, We're going to teach you about our abilities and how we use them to defend our world.

[Sosanalimus said, a smile on his face]

[The group grinned, excited for the challenge ahead]

Meanwhile, Leo and his crew were still pushing

[The group stood at the entrance of the Ghost of the Labyrinth's hideout, the cold air biting at their skin]

[Kiara's eyes shone with determination as she said]

Kiara: We still got time, we have 2 minutes left, we still got courage.

[But as they stepped forward, the atmosphere changed, and the cold became even more biting]

[Leo frowned]

Leo: Why is it starting to get very cold, is it winter already?

[As they looked around, they saw a large organization with members hailing the Ghost of the Labyrinth team]

[Female]

"The best group in the State"

[one of them said]

[The group saw three figures standing ahead of them - Lord of Wisdom, the most knowledgeable of all magic in existence, The Wraithlord, the most proficient master of shadow itself, and Loseio Sebastián, the Ice Manipulator]

[Angela pointed at them]

Angela: Isn't that them?

[Kiara's eyes widened as she saw her brother, but Leo stopped her with a serious and deadly face]

Leo: No, don't go near him, he is no longer the brother we know. It seems like he is been possessed or something.

[Issac's eyes narrowed]

Issac: Why is the Wraithlord here?

[Leo questioned]

Leo: You know him?

[Issac nodded]

Issac: Yes, he is one of the strongest in the state among the 5 Empire State. I heard he was kicked out because he didn't follow a rule and he fought a light user in his ancient past.

[Leo smirked]

Leo: Thanks for the information. At least we know something about one of them.

[The group approached the Group of the Labyrinth, and Loseio's eyes landed on them]

Loseio: Who are you? And how are you not even freezing to death?

[He asked, his voice cold and detached]

[Issac replied]

Issac: We are the Tyrant Forces for now.

[Angela looked at him in confusion]

Angela: Since when did this guy give us a group name?

[Kiara giggled a bit]

Kiara: I don't know, maybe he created one. Well, at least he gave an introduction.

[Loseio's eyes blazed with interest]

Loseio: The Tyrant Forces? Is that even a group name out of the State?

[he questioned, his voice dripping with skepticism]

[Kiara stepped forward, her voice filled with emotion]

Kiara: Brother, come to your senses. It's me, your sister, Kiara. I miss you very much.

[But Loseio didn't recognize her]

Loseio: I don't recognize you from nowhere

[he said, his voice cold]

[The Wraithlord spoke up]

Wraithlord: Brother? Sister? Do you know this guy, Loseio?

[Loseio's expression didn't change]

Loseio: I don't recognize you.

[Leo's eyes locked onto Loseio's, his expression determined]

Leo: I don't think we can do that..

[he said, his voice firm]

[The atmosphere was tense, and it seemed like a confrontation was imminent]

[But Kiara's voice remained calm and gentle]

Kiara: Brother, please listen to me. We're here to help you. Something's wrong, and we can fix it.

[Loseio's expression didn't change, but his eyes seemed to flicker with a hint of curiosity]

Loseio: What makes you think something's wrong?

[he asked, his voice still cold]

[Kiara took a step forward, her eyes locked onto Loseio's]

Kiara: Because I know you, brother. You're not the one who's been controlling your actions. Someone or something is manipulating you, and we're here to stop it.

[Loseio's expression remained unreadable, but his eyes seemed to hold a glimmer of interest]

Loseio: Go on..

[he said, his voice still detached]

[The group exchanged glances, and Leo nodded]

Leo: We'll tell you everything, But you need to listen

[he said, his voice firm]

[And with that, the group began to tell Loseio their story, hoping that he would listen and remember who he truly was]

[The group stood frozen in shock as Issac's words hung in the air]

Issac: Are you sure this is your brother, Leo and Kiara? Because it seems like he is a fake.

Leo: What do you mean??

[He questioned him with curiosity]

[Everyone's eyes widened in surprise as Issac continued]

Issac: It's a fake because the Wraithlord never follows orders. Even though he was removed from the state, he created his own dungeon and rules his own domain. As for Loseio, it seems like he is being controlled by a puppet. So, that means these are fake, and the manipulator behind all this is the Lord of Wisdom.

[Angela and Kiara exchanged shocked glances]

Angela: What...?

Kiara: What..?

[they whispered in unison]

[The Lord of Wisdom's expression changed from calm to enraged]

Lord of Wisdom: What... Impossible... This is pointless... I shall kill everyone!!

[At that moment, His Aura begins to submerge as it piled and shook the environment]

[Leo's eyes narrowed]

Leo: What kind of pressure is this? It's like he is adding his source and magic together at once.

[The Lord of Wisdom sneered]

Lord of Wisdom: If you really want to have your brother back, you will have to go through me first. I have stolen his ability, the Ice Incineration, one of the most dominant and effective ice magic in my storage.

[Kiara's eyes widened in horror]

Kiara: What... No!!

[The people around them started to panic, running for their lives as the Lord of Wisdom began to destroy things with his power]

[Leo's eyes locked onto the Lord of Wisdom, determination etched on his face]

[The Lord of Wisdom started to destroy everything with his power]

Leo: This is going to be one hell of a fight. You ready Issac

[Issac smirked]

Issac: I am always ready, I can't wait to incinerate this punk entirely from existence

[The Lord of Wisdom's laughter echoed through the air, sending chills down their spines]

Lord of Wisdom: Nice one, Nice one, You got me there pal, But don't think your tough, You think you can defeat me? I am the master of all knowledge and magic. You are no match for me. Let me show you something exclusive...

OMNI- SPELL WEAVING!

[With that said, He unleashed a spell that can simultaneously cast, combine, and modify every spell, enchantment, or ritual that has ever been, or ever could be, conceived across all dimensions and realities]

[As it hurtled towards Leo and his comrades]

Leo: Venikulanino!!

[He said]

[Leo tries to use Venikulanino to deflect the attack, but it was penetrated as it hurt Leo]

Issac: Impossible, He penetrated that so easily??

[Leo then begins to panting very hard]

Leo: Dammit... I never knew there was guy who could easily swerve through my defenses

[The battle between Leo, Issac, and the Lord of Wisdom had begun]

[The air was electric with tension as the three opponents faced off against each other]

Leo: You're insanely powerful Lord of Wisdom, But I won't hold back

[Leo said, his hand gripping the hilt of his sword, Shatter Nebula]

[The Lord of Wisdom sneered]

Lord of Wisdom: We'll see about that. Omni-Spell Weaving!!

[A burst of magical energy exploded from the Lord of Wisdom, unleashing a flurry of spells that seemed to fill the entire sky]

[Leo and Issac leaped into action, their movements swift and synchronized]

Leo: I'll take the left flank!

[Leo shouted, charging towards the Lord of Wisdom with his sword at the ready]

Issac: I've got the right!

[Issac replied, unleashing a wave of flames that incinerated a cluster of spells]

[The Lord of Wisdom laughed maniacally, his eyes gleaming with excitement]

Lord of Wisdom: You think you can dodge my spells? I'll show you the true meaning of power and all the magic in existence!!

[With a flick of his wrist, the Lord of Wisdom sent a massive fireball hurtling towards Leo]

[Leo raised his sword, and with a swift motion, he sliced the fireball in two. But the Lord of Wisdom was relentless, unleashing spell after spell, each one more powerful than the last]

[Issac joined the fray, his flames dancing across the battlefield as he clashed with the Lord of Wisdom's magic]

[The two warriors moved in perfect sync, their movements a testament to their training and trust in each other]

[As the battle raged on, the Lord of Wisdom began to gain the upper hand]

[His magic was too powerful, too overwhelming]

[Leo and Issac stumbled back, their breathing heavy as they struggled to keep up with the Lord of Wisdom's relentless assault]

[But they refused to give up. With a fierce cry, Leo charged forward, his sword flashing in the dim light of the battlefield]

[Issac followed close behind, his flames burning brighter than ever before]

Issac: Let's do this!!

[The Lord of Wisdom sneered, confident in his own power]

Lord of Wisdom: You're no match for me..

[he said, his voice dripping with contempt]

[But Leo and Issac were far from defeated. With a swift motion, Leo sliced through a cluster of spells, creating an opening for Issac to unleash a devastating blast of flames]

Issac: Smart move Leo..

[The Lord of Wisdom stumbled back, his eyes widening in surprise]

Lord of Wisdom: Impossible..

[he muttered]

Leo: Let's end this..

[Leo said, his voice low and deadly]

Issac: With pleasure!

[Issac replied, his flames burning brighter than ever before]

[The battle was far from over. In fact, it was just beginning]

[The battle raged on, with Leo and Issac moving in perfect sync]

[Leo unleashed a powerful slash with his Shatter Nebula sword, cutting through the Lord of Wisdom's defenses]

Leo: TAKE THIS!!

[Issac followed up with a wave of flames, unleashing a Pyroclastic Wave Generation that engulfed the Lord of Wisdom]

Lord of Wisdom: You're fast, But not fast enough..

[The Lord of Wisdom said, his eyes narrowed]

[With a flick of his wrist, the Lord of Wisdom created a localized gravity field, slowing down time and space around him]

[Leo and Issac stumbled back, their movements slowed]

Leo: Time dilation??, We need to get out of here!!

[Leo muttered, his eyes locked on the Lord of Wisdom]

[Issac nodded, unleashing a blast of flames that created a shockwave, disrupting the gravity field]

Issac: I am all fired up!!

[As they charged forward, Kiara and Angela watched in awe, their eyes wide with shock]

Kiara: How are they moving so fast?

[Kiara asked, her voice barely above a whisper]

Angela: I don't know, but they're perfectly in sync. It's like they're reading each other's minds.

[Angela replied]

[The Lord of Wisdom sneered, his eyes flashing with anger]

Lord of Wisdom: Thier team work is surpassing my prophecies, But I have the power of the Aetheric Sovereignty!

[He said, with a terrifying smirk]

[With a wave of his hand, the Lord of Wisdom unleashed a burst of magical energy, creating a massive explosion that sent Leo and Issac flying]

[Leo landed hard on the ground, his sword flashing as he prepared for the next attack]

Leo: We need to end this, Issac. We can't let him keep using his magic like this.

[Issac nodded, his flames burning brighter than ever before]

Issac: Here we go again!!

[The two warriors charged forward, their movements a blur as they clashed with the Lord of Wisdom in a frenzy of steel and fire]

[The battle raged on, with neither side giving an inch]

[The Lord of Wisdom unleashed his Meta-Magic Disjunction, perfectly understanding and categorizing Leo's and Issac's abilities]

[But Leo was prepared, using his Law of Saint to alter the friction force and change the trajectory of his attack]

[Issac followed up with a Conjunction Flames, manipulating the concept of probability and erasing the Lord of Wisdom's chances of dodging]

[The Lord of Wisdom stumbled back, his eyes widening in surprise]

Lord of Wisdom: W-What...He can alter the tradjectory of the attack

[He muttered]

[The battle was far from over, but Leo and Issac had gained the upper hand]

[They continued to press their advantage, their movements a testament to their training and trust in each other]

[As the fight raged on, the outcome hung in the balance]

[Would Leo and Issac emerge victorious, or would the Lord of Wisdom's power prove too great to overcome? Only time would tell]
