As Akhil, Old Man Kapil, Henry, and Kofi journeyed through space, they marveled at the breathtaking sights. The vastness of space stretched out before them, and they were in awe of the largest planets, shimmering stars, and celestial phenomena. The excitement and wonder were palpable among them, each one lost in the beauty of the cosmos.
But their awe was short-lived. Suddenly, a dark shadow emerged from the void, attacking them with a fierce and menacing presence. Henry quickly reacted, deflecting the attack with his strength. However, the shadow moved with startling speed, positioning itself directly beneath Henry.
Before the shadow could unleash its energy, a powerful red ball of light appeared out of nowhere, annihilating the shadow in an instant. The group was left stunned as the red light faded, revealing a figure standing before them.
Henry, still in shock, demanded, "Who are you?"
The figure, exuding an aura of immense power, responded calmly, "I am a god."
Akhil stepped forward, his voice filled with desperation. "Do you know Lord Pyro?"
The god nodded. "Yes, I do."
Akhil pressed on, "Is there any place where the souls of the dead are kept?"
The god's expression darkened. "Why do you ask, mortal?"
Akhil explained, "We are here to rescue my friend Yohan."
The god's anger flared. "If your friend is dead, you cannot bring him back from the void."
Determined, Akhil said, "Then we will search for him ourselves."
The god sneered, "Your power levels are pathetic. Do you think you can defeat the god who protects the void's golden gate? Return to your world; that is my order."
Kofi, not backing down, said defiantly, "We will not leave."
With blinding speed, Kofi attempted to slice the god with his speed. However, the god effortlessly stopped Kofi's attack with a single finger, leaving Old Man Kapil in utter shock at the display of power.
Suddenly, the god used the red ball to create a powerful gravitational force, pulling the group towards the nearest planet. The force was overwhelming, and they were helpless as they fell towards the surface of the planet, their journey through space interrupted abruptly.
As they crash-landed on the unfamiliar planet, the group struggled to regain their bearings. The landscape before them was alien and unwelcoming, a stark contrast to the wonders they had seen in space. They were now faced with a new challenge: to find a way to continue their quest and locate Yohan amidst the vast and mysterious void.
After an hour, Akhil slowly regained consciousness. As he opened his eyes, he realized he and his friends were confined within a dimly lit cell. The walls were thick and sturdy, with no apparent means of escape. The atmosphere was oppressive, and the reality of their situation began to sink in.
Akhil approached the bars of the cell and called out to a nearby soldier who was standing guard. "What is this place?" he asked urgently.
The soldier glanced at him with a wary expression. "This is Planet Koyou," he said, his voice curt. "That's all I can tell you for now."
Akhil was puzzled. He had never heard of Planet Koyou before and was frustrated by the lack of information. As he attempted to use his time reversal power to escape, he noticed a red ball symbol on his hand. The symbol seemed to pulse with a faint, menacing glow, and his attempt to reverse time was thwarted by its presence. "What is this red thing?" he wondered aloud.
At that moment, Old Man Kapil stirred and woke up. He looked around, quickly assessing their situation. "What is this place, Akhil?" he asked.
Akhil explained, "We're on Planet Koyou and currently imprisoned in a jail. We need to find a way out of here."
Old Man Kapil's eyes narrowed with determination. "Leave it to me," he said, and he began to focus his energy on his Stone Siddhi. With a surge of power, he manipulated the stone to break through the walls of their cell. The concrete crumbled, creating an opening. "Quick, help me carry Kofi and Henry," he instructed.
Akhil carefully lifted Kofi and Henry onto his shoulders. As he moved, the jail alarm blared loudly, sending a shrill, piercing sound through the facility. Soldiers began to rush towards their location, alerted by the commotion.
Akhil, Old Man Kapil, and their companions sprinted down the dimly lit corridors, dodging soldiers and avoiding detection. They eventually found refuge in an old, abandoned castle nearby, hoping to escape the immediate danger. The castle was shrouded in darkness and neglect, providing them with a temporary sanctuary.
Old Man Kapil urged them, "We need to leave this place quickly before they find us."
Suddenly, a voice echoed from deeper within the castle. "Who are you?"
The voice was authoritative and commanding, and it filled the room with an unsettling silence. The group turned towards the source of the voice, bracing themselves for whatever might come next. The tension was palpable as they prepared to face the unknown figure who had just spoken.
