Chapter 14 - Chapter 14: The Road to Destiny

The morning light was dim, like a shy girl, gently pushing aside the curtain of night with her soft fingertips, and a touch of light gold fell on the valley. The mist shrouded the foot of the mountain, like a veil, adding a touch of mystery to this ancient valley. Alexander and Adrian stood at the foot of the mountain, ready to start their journey to the Palace of the God King, like two warriors, ready to fight. On the distant horizon, a looming golden palace loomed in the clouds, like a treasure, waiting for people to explore.

Adrian pointed in that direction, like a general, guiding his soldiers.

"That is our destination - the Palace of the God King," he said, his tone full of firmness and determination, like a general commanding his soldiers, "The road is long, like a long journey, full of dangers, like a road full of thorns. Are you ready, Alexander?"

Alexander took a deep breath and nodded firmly, like a warrior, ready to fight.

"I'm ready, teacher," he said, his tone full of firmness and determination, like a warrior ready to fight, "no matter what lies ahead, like a hero, facing the challenges of the future, I will face it."

They began their difficult trek, like two climbers on their way to the top of the mountain. On the way, Alexander constantly used his newly mastered element fusion ability to cope with various challenges, like a magician, casting magic: using fire and earth to clear the road, like a warrior, opening up the road; using Feng Shui to cross the turbulent river, like a hero, conquering nature.

One evening, they camped in an ancient forest, like two travelers, looking for shelter. The campfire reflected their faces, like two warm stars, illuminating the dark forest. Adrian suddenly spoke, like a wise man, thinking about the philosophy of life.

"Alexander, have you ever thought about why you were chosen to be the heir to the God King?" He said, his tone full of wisdom and philosophy, like a wise man, thinking about the philosophy of life.

Alexander pondered for a moment, like a child, thinking about the meaning of life.

"I... I don't know," he said, his tone full of confusion and curiosity, like a child exploring the unknown world, "Sometimes I think it might just be a coincidence, like an accident, coming to this world."

Adrian shook his head, like a wise man, denying his point of view.

"There are no real coincidences in this world," he said, his tone full of wisdom and philosophy, like a wise man thinking about the philosophy of life, "Your fate has been determined since the day you were born, like a warrior, accepting the arrangement of fate."

Just then, a strange sound came from the depths of the forest, like a ghost, echoing in the ears. Alexander stood up alertly, like a warrior, preparing for battle.

"What is that?" he asked, his tone full of curiosity and uneasiness, like a child exploring the unknown world.

Adrian's expression became serious, like a general, feeling the threat of war.

"It's the tree of memory," he said, his tone full of mystery and expectation, like a magician revealing a secret, "It's calling you, like a mother calling her child."

They followed the sound deep into the forest, like two explorers exploring the unknown world, and came to a huge ancient tree, like a giant, standing in the forest. The trunk was engraved with strange runes, emitting a faint blue light, like a treasure, flashing.

"Put your hand on the trunk," Adrian instructed, like a mentor, guiding his students, "it will show you something, like a magician, casting magic."

Alexander put his hand on the rough bark, like a devout believer, feeling the power of the gods. Suddenly, a powerful energy poured into his mind, like a torrent, washing his soul. The scene in front of him began to change, like a movie, playing the picture. He saw a long-forgotten memory, like a treasure, being excavated.

A baby was wrapped in a golden cloth, like a prince receiving a blessing; all around were burning palaces and sounds of battle, like a battlefield, fighting. A man wearing a crown - obviously the former God King - handed the baby to a masked man, like a king passing on power.

"Take him away," the God King said, his voice full of sadness and determination, like a warrior facing failure, "protect him, like a mother, caring for her child, until he is ready to accept his fate, like a hero, preparing to meet a challenge."

The scene changed, and Alexander saw the masked man handing the baby to an ordinary couple - the adoptive parents who raised him, like a father raising his child.

When Alexander woke up from the illusion, like a person waking up from a dream, his face was full of tears, like a child crying.

"That baby... is me?" he asked tremblingly, his tone full of confusion and uneasiness, like a child facing the truth.

Adrian nodded, like a mentor, revealing the truth.

"Yes," he said, his tone full of sympathy and understanding, like a father comforting his child, "You are the son of the former God King, like a prince, born with a great mission, like a hero, shouldering a heavy responsibility."

Alexander felt dizzy, like a person struck by lightning, countless questions emerged in his mind, like a storm, raging.

"But why... why hide me? What happened to that battle? Where are my biological parents now?" He asked softly, his tone full of confusion and uneasiness, like a child facing the truth.

Adrian sighed, like an old man, recalling the past years.

"That was a dark history," he said, his tone full of sadness and helplessness, like a person who witnessed the war, "a terrible war broke out between the God King and the Seven Sages, like a demon, destroying the world. In order to protect you and the future of this world, like a hero saving the world, the God King had to send you away, like a father protecting his child. As for your parents... they sacrificed themselves in the battle to seal the dark power, like a warrior, like a hero dedicating themselves to the world."

Alexander felt his heart filled with complex emotions: sadness, like a child who lost his loved ones; anger, like a deceived person; confusion, like a lost person; and a strong sense of mission, like a hero shouldering a heavy responsibility.

"So, my whole life is for this moment?" He asked softly, his tone full of confusion and uneasiness, like a child facing the truth.

Adrian put his hand on Alexander's shoulder, like a father comforting his child.

"Your life is your own, Alexander," he said, his tone full of wisdom and philosophy, like a wise man thinking about the philosophy of life, "Destiny has given you an important task, like a soldier, accepting the arrangement of fate, but how to complete this mission, like a hero, choosing the road, the choice is in your hands."

Just then, there was a commotion in the distance, like a warning bell, reminding them that danger was approaching. Dark energy began to spread in the forest, like a demon, descending on the world.

"It's the Dark Army," Adrian said vigilantly, his tone full of worry and tension, like a general, feeling the threat of war, "They must have sensed your awakened power, like a hunter, tracking prey. We must leave here as soon as possible, like a soldier, fleeing the battlefield."

Alexander nodded, like a soldier, ready to fight. But there was no fear in his eyes anymore, replaced by firmness and determination, like a hero facing the challenge. He knew that from this moment on, he was not only fighting for himself, like a warrior, in battle, but also for the whole world, like a hero, saving the world.

They quickly packed up, like two travelers preparing for the journey, and continued to move towards the Palace of the God King, like two warriors moving forward. On the way, Alexander kept recalling the images displayed by the Tree of Memory, thinking about his identity and mission, like a wise man thinking about the philosophy of life.

As night fell, they stopped to rest on a high ground, like two travelers looking for shelter. In the distance, the outline of the Palace of the God King loomed in the moonlight, like a treasure, flashing light, and looked closer than before.

Adrian looked at Alexander in contemplation, like a mentor observing his students.

"Remember, Alexander," he said, his tone full of wisdom and philosophy, like a wise man teaching his students, "real power comes from your heart, like a warrior, feeling his power. Your bloodline gives you potential, like a hero, accepting the arrangement of fate, but what really makes you a hero is your choice and action, like a wise man, thinking about the philosophy of life."

Alexander looked up at his teacher, his eyes flashing with determination, like a warrior, ready to fight.

"I understand, Adrian," he said, his tone full of determination and determination, like a warrior, ready to fight, "No matter what my origin is, like a hero, facing the challenge of fate, I will complete this mission in my own way, like a wise man, thinking about the philosophy of life. I will become a god-king worthy of this world, like a hero, saving the world."

Adrian smiled with relief, like a father watching his child grow up.

"I believe you will," he said, his tone full of comfort and encouragement, like a father watching his child grow up, "Rest now, like a warrior, resting to recover strength, tomorrow we will reach the Palace of the God King, like a traveler, reaching the destination. There is still a final test waiting for you there, like a warrior, accepting the final test."

Alexander nodded and lay down to rest, like a warrior, resting to recover strength. But his mind was still thinking about today's discovery, like a wise man, thinking about the philosophy of life. He knew that his life had changed forever, like a warrior, growing up in battle. But he also understood that it was these experiences that shaped him now, like a sculptor, carving his destiny.

No matter what challenges are ahead, like a hero, facing the challenges of the future, he is ready to face them. Because now, he is not only Alexander, like a child, growing up; not only the master of the elements, like a magician, casting magic; but also the hope of the future of this world, like a hero, saving the world.

With such awareness, Alexander fell asleep, like a warrior, recovering his strength during rest, waiting for tomorrow, like a traveler, waiting for his destination, waiting for the final test of fate, like a hero, preparing to meet the challenge.
