It's been three months since the battle of humanity, and the world hasn't been doing all that well, not like there's been any major issues, but things haven't been going as smoothly as before. Countries of the world have lost great numbers of soliders and assassins, specifically the one's that had stood by their country's borders to fight down the large number of shadow puppets that were charging towards them, as well as the one's that took place in the fight against zodia. Aside from the large lose of soldiers, there were alot of property damage caused to the cities and countries of the world, but due to the modern technology and the fact that people have abilities, it didn't take too long for the large scale damage to be fixed. The lightning country, the country of raijin, the iron country, and the city suffered the most, it was most of their soldiers that took part in the fight against the god of chaos and calamity, who mercilessly destroyed them without blinking an eye. Only a few soldiers survived that encounter. The city only had 5 soldiers left from that encounter against zodia, and that was because those five were smart enough to realise the power difference between the entire alliance of 4 powerful countries, against one man who needed countries to be gathered just to stop him, they knew it wouldn't end well. The lightning country contributed 25,000 soliders and lost all of them, with just 2 of the soldiers returning brutally injured. The country of raijin also contributed 25,000 but lost all of them, the city contributed 15,000 with 10,000 dead, 4095 horribly decapitated and injured. The iron country which contributed the most of 50,000 lost all their soldiers as well, with just one surviving long enough before the 3 powerful lords of the respective nations (minus kojin)joined, the elite squad 10 also suffered huge injuries as well. Son had been in unconscious for three months in the hospital due to the intense heat and power he and sorata were blasting at each other, luck wasn't doing all too well as she had trouble moving around without a support, her legs were weak, and she was unable too infuse energy to her body due to her final trump card which included her summoning a Nuclear bomb that had a powerful explosion comparable to that of sorata, she forced out a large amount of energy out of her body to do so, leaving her unable to use energy for now. Tobi has also been unconscious for three months, the fight against the powerfull shadow puppet was something that strained his body and mind, that and having to borrow 50 percent of the sun's power had severely weakened his body. Kinto on the other hand was at home, but his hands and legs were covered in bandages, he could still move freely, but any excessive movements such as jumping around and performing athletic feat would worsen the situation of his limbs, he was too eat more of fruits, baraka didn't suffer much damage, just a broken arm. Serena, sukuna and Raquel were all doing fine, they were even able to go out and eat together. Mori on the other hand was far from injured, he was even able to meditate and occasionally check up on runo. Deo was also in good shape, but he would always refrain himself from training or building any sort of inventions, but what was always on his mind was sughi, his brother who had passed away. Alex was on the top of a large building looking down on the city and enjoying the view like he always did, he was looking at the construction workers and other people with their abilities fixing the buildings and towers that got destroyed in the battle against the dark sign. Alex while sipping out of his drink "Wow, we really went all out huh? This large scale of destruction is one you can only see in manga, especially when they are having a war arc. Even the mountain ranges and the wastelands are a mess. So that's how serious our fight was. The dark sign, huh" he says to himself, he looks up in the air and see's the blue sky shining beautifully "Well even tho most of the environment got destroyed, the sky still looks beautiful. Im glad im still alive to see it like this, i hope things stay this way abit longer " Kazuki appears behind alex and says "You too huh?", alex without turning back responds "Doesn't the city look beautiful? Even tho its as good as wrecked, the place is still nice", kazuki responds to alex "Yeah, you have a point. Here, take this" he stretches out his hand and gives alex a burger "I bought this for you." Alex grabs it and says "Smash burgers huh? With melted cheese. Thanks", and takes a bite out of it. He asks "How's serena doing? Raquel told me she and sukuna were having it rough at their end. And plus I haven't seen her in a while.", kazuki responds "She's fine. Unlike the others, she doesn't seem to be in any problem, Raquel must have healed her and sukuna after their fight with Kirihai." Alex completely eats his burger and gobbles down his drink and let's out a sigh of relief "God I'm so happy to be alive to eat, almost thought I'd die in that war.", kazuki asks him "So? What of you? How've you been fairing up since then? You seem to have taken more psychological effect than me and deo.". Alex just says "I've been fairing fine. Ever since the war, all I've been doing was just sleeping and catching up with the anime and manga's I've missed out on. And Raquel and I have been seeing each other as usual, things are going back to the way they were." They both go silent for a few moment and enjoying the beautiful view and the fresh air that was blowing. Kazuki then says "Alex I want to ask something. Can we both work together..... and kill the higher ups?" The wind blows even more loudly.
