Hours later, Xenia returned to the Saber Fortress. Half of the Saber Fortress consisted of Heraklinos Empire career men and women who sneered at her return knowing she had just taken down one of their most important allies. The other half were simple enlisted men who had quite the affection for Xenia. Not to mention she had made many of them very rich by way of Victoria advising them to bet all of their money on her. She waved as she entered in her war-torn outfit. Her hair was a mess, and she was…-

Xenia laid on the ground in exquisite pain from her injuries sustained while executing her plan to break the God sword, “This pain. All over.” She moaned out in excruciating torture but also in utmost pleasure as she continued to mutter, “I love it.” She propped herself up on her elbow and viewed her injuries. Most of her skin had a deathly appearance charred from energy burns with a black hue. However, all of her limbs were intact, and she could feel her body racing to recover. She used what…

The once grassy green plains had turned to a barren and scarred brown plot of Earth as Xenia and Gregory engaged in an intense battle complete with energy blasts, shockwaves from sword strikes, and explosions of various kinds. Gregory huffed and puffed as he held his sword tightly. He called out to Xenia, “You think your ki to be bottomless, but even you have limits! I intend to find it!” Although fatigued, Xenia’s condition fared much better owing to her healing ability. She didn’t smile or quip…

Gregory stood gripping his sword tightly. He had an uneasy feeling, and he was, for the first time in a very long time, on guard against a force he now recognized as lethal. He observed Xenia as her aura seemed to grow larger every second easily outpacing his resting aura. What made him feel most uneasy was the slight pull he felt within his body. His blood was tugging at him from the inside towards her. Xenia’s aura was so powerful that she had a natural attraction to all blood without even utilizing…

Erika hugged Jacek’s arm tightly as they watched Gregory’s Lightbringer attack begin. At first, they and everyone else anticipated Xenia would dodge; however, they too were surprised to find her immobilized by a mysterious golden light. Erika shrieked, “Direct hit! Is she dead?!” Jacek observed the live broadcast intently, “She’s not dead. But she is certainly taking a lot of damage.” They continued watching as Gregory then performed Lightbringer once more at 100%. Jacek frowned and call…

King Ramses and Queen Zara sat in luxurious chairs within a Sage Family Palace in the Sage Empire. Zara sipped her wine as she watched the battle begin in earnest. The battle that would determine the fate of not only the war but also the future of the world. She swirled her wine after taking a sip and said, “It really is a shame that Xenia fell from the tree as a rotten apple. Just look at her. Fast as ever, strong as a Master at her age, and sharp as a tack.” Ramses grunted and said, “I wouldn’t…

“Fighters! The battle will begin in one minute! Please make your way to the field if you have not already!” A booming voice echoed throughout the fields and tents jarring Xenia from her meditation. She stood from her lotus position fully armored and ready to battle. She took one last look in her mirror and smiled at herself thinking, “I look She confidently strode from her tent to see numerous drones flying overhead. She regally waved at the drones with a beaming smile on her face. The television…

It was the morning of the battle, and a loud speaker rang from just outside Xenia’s tent on the grassy plains, “Fighters! You have one hour until you must report to the battlefield!” Xenia stood before her bed with all of her clothes and armor laid out before her eyes to survey. Constance walked up behind her and said, “Choices, choices, choices. Will you wear the black or the red boots? Black or red leather tunic? At least you only have one armor to choose from!” Xenia stood silently with her…

Deep within the Saber Province’s eastern most wooded forest, Nero and Xenia sat quietly. Both sat in the lotus position approximately 5 feet apart and facing one another. Xenia had since switched clothes to her all-black karate gi with her 10th degree black belt wrapped around her waist. Nero too wore his karate gi with his 8th degree black belt wrapped around his waist. He spoke with his eyes closed, “As a grandmaster, you know all too well that peak combat skills are achieved through both mental and…

Jacek woke up next to Erika and smiled at her, “Did you get any sleep at all last night? I think Vega next door had a little too much fun with his time off.” Erika laughed, “I wonder who the lucky girl was? They were up late, and they were Jacek laughed as they laid in bed together, “Maybe I should go over there and interrupt their morning since they so rudely interrupted our night of sound sleep.” Erika smiled and said, “I dare you!” Jacek threw the sheets off of his legs and stepped…
