The Fight for Survival

"Let's go."

Sohan said in a serious voice to Selistina.

"Yeah."

Selistina said while looking towards the monsters from the balcony.

Then Sohan takes his sword from the sofa and runs outside the castle with Selistina.

"Oh! Wait a minute. Where is Alix ?"

Sohan asked while looking around.

"Look the monsters are coming. Let's go. Hurry !"

Selistina said while looking towards the monsters.

"Yeah. But-"

Sohan said while looking around for Alix. But before he could finish his sentences, Selistina runs towards the monsters.

"Hey wait."

Sohan said surprisingly while seeing Selistina running towards the monsters.

But there's no need for him too worried about her. Selistina is also a master swordswoman.

She killed the front 10 Monsters like cutting the vegetables with her Sword.

"Huh !?"

Sohan responded speechlessly and think.

"Am I the only one who doesn't know how to use the sword here ?"

It's true that even having a sword he doesn't even know how to use it. After all, it's his first time using the sword.

While fighting the monsters, Selistina look back at Sohan and said.

"What are you doing there? Come here and help me. HAAH !"

Then she cut a monster who came in front of her during the talk.

"What should I do now? If I don't go then I may be no longer be called as the Hero..."

Sohan thinks while looking towards the ground.

Selistina looks at him while fighting and thinking.

"What he is doing there ?"

On the other side, King and Alix stand on the balcony of the castle while watching their fighting.

King asked Alix in confusion.

"Mr. Alix, What is Hero doing there just by standing, while Selistina is fighting the monsters ?"

It's normal for King to be confused over Sohan's action.

Alix smiles and said.

"Just Wait, Your Majesty. You'll soon see an unbelievable scene."

"Huh ?"

King responded confusingly.

Alix smiles again and thinks.

"Soon he will unleash his true power..."

"...I have to do something. But what ?"

Sohan thinks while standing and looking towards the ground.

He then looks at Selistina. He saw her fighting then he widen his eyes as he starts seeing her moments slowly.

"What is this ?"

He muttered to himself in amazement.

Then suddenly he found himself in a place full of stars and galaxies.

"What? Is that the place where I meet God? But why I'm here? "

He muttered to himself in amazement.

"Am I died again ?"

He asked him panicky while touching his body.

While touching, he realized that he is not dead.

"Phew~ I thought I am dead. Good to see that I'm still alive."

He said to himself with a sigh of relief.

"But then, where am I ?"

He muttered to himself while looking around.

Suddenly a person appears behind Sohan.

Sohan looks back in alert and stunned to see that person.

"You are..."

He said surprisingly.

The person who appears behind Sohan is Sohan's hidden power. His hidden power has the same appearance as Sohan. That's why seeing him makes Sohan stunned.

"Nice to see you, Sohan. I'm your hidden power. Your true potential who was hidden deep inside you."

His power said to Sohan with a smile.

"Hidden...Power...?"

Sohan responded confusingly then he thinks while looking at his right palm.

"No wonder his appearance is the same as me."

Then he looked at him and said.

"O-Okay. I think I understand. But what are you doing here now ?"

He said then asked with a confused smile.

"Well, I think that now is the time for me to be merged with you."

His power said in a serious voice while looking towards the galaxies and stars above him.

"Merged with...me ?"

Sohan repeated confusingly.

"Yeah...I was inside you for that long time waiting for the time...when you also needs my assistance. But now, finally after that long time...it's time for me to merge with you. So, that you can able to protect the people you love in your this life."

His Power said then smiles gently.

"Protect the people I love...?"

Sohan repeats then he remembered Selis's face. Then he look at his right palm and said to his power.

"So, What do we have to do to get merged...?"

He asked his power in a serious voice.

"Sohan just hold my hand...Then you understand everything."

His power said with a smile.

Sohan forwards his right palm and holds the hand of his power.

"Haah !?"

He responded surprisingly with his eyes wide open.

He understands...the reason to fight....the reason to protect... the reason to struggle...the reason to sacrifice....for the people dear to him.

He smiles and said to his power.

"It's time, isn't it... Arstatix."

Yes, his true potential actual name is Arstatix.

Arstatix smiles and said.

"Yes, Sohan. It's Time."

Then they both start chanting.

"I am the Light in the darkness,

The protector of Innocent,

The Reason to the death of all Evils,

The Sacrifices for the people I Love,

I'm the Beginning and the End,

I'm the reincarnation of a God,

I'm What I'm."

Then suddenly light starts shining brightly, they both smiles while looking at each other.

Now there, Selistina fights the monster while Sohan's body is standing still while looking towards the ground.

"Why he is still standing there ?"

Selistina said while fighting with monsters.

Unfortunately, A monster runs towards Sohan.

Selistina while fighting with other monster scream.

"SOHAN LOOK OUT !"

That monster is about to attack Sohan with his sickle but suddenly Sohan opens his Red shining eyes and cut that monster in half with his Sword.

"Hah !?"

"Hah !?"

The King and Selistina both reacted shockingly to Sohan's sudden attack on that monster. Alix smiles while seeing that.

That monster's body blasted after being sliced into two.

Other monsters look at Sohan.

Some Red sparks were seen around Sohan's body.

Sohan smiles and said.

"Let me send you all to Hell."

Then he runs towards the monsters around Selistina and in an instant, he cuts all of them and Every monster blasted after that slice attack. Soon enough, All the monsters are cleared.

The King and Selistina both looking at Sohan in dumbstruck.

Sohan look at Selistina and asked

"What? Am I looking so handsome today ?"

He asked her because she is continuously staring at him.

Selistina diverges her eyes.

Sohan smiles.

Then again more monsters start coming.

Sohan stand in alert mode and said to Selistina.

"Let's go."

"Um...Yeah."

Selistina said while coming back to her senses.

Then he runs towards the monsters and the goblins and the dragons. And again he cut them within a minute.

Selistina also fighting the monsters.

But her more focus is on Sohan's fighting that's why suddenly a goblin appears beside her and is about to attack Selistina.

"Hah !?"

Selistina responded surprisingly.

But then Sohan appear in front of Selistina and grabbed the goblin's neck tightly and said in a bit of anger.

"I won't let someone likes you lay a finger on Selistina in my presence."

By hearing what Sohan just said, Selistina's heart starts beating faster and she blushes.

Then he press that goblin's neck so tightly...soon that goblin died then he throw him away and said to Selistina.

"Are you okay ?"

He said in a serious voice.

"Hum."

Selistina responds while looking around, trying not to show her face to him.

"Hm...?"

Sohan responded confusingly to her this reaction.

King look at Sohan then look at Selistina and after a while, he said to Alix.

"Mr. Alix..."

"Yes, Your Majesty ?"

Alix responded.

"... Don't you think that they both perfectly match each other ?"

King asked then smiles happily while observing them.

"Huh ?"

Alix responded surprisingly.

"Hm..."

King claps his palms in happiness and said with a wide smile.

"...I decided. I will soon arrange the marriage between my daughter Selistina and the Hero Sohan~."

After hearing that, Alix shows a fake smile to King and thinks.

"That's what we call the bonus of Reincarnation, I guess."

Then suddenly the ground starts trembling...

"What's this ?"

Selistina said while making a panic face.

Sohan looks towards the west from where the monsters are coming from.

"What !?"

He responded shockingly.

Selistina, the King, and Alix look at Sohan's response.

Suddenly, A large black colored goblin with green eyes and with a large black sword in his hand and he's wearing tiger fur in his body approaching them.

"What !?"

King responded shockingly after seeing that.

"No way."

Selistina said panicky after seeing that goblin.

Alix looks at Sohan while making a serious face.

Goblin appears in front of Sohan and Selistina but some distance away from them.

He roars rapidly.

"WAAAAAAAHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!"

Sohan stands in the fighting position while holding his sword tightly.

While Selistina and King are looking at that goblin in fear.
