Introduction
In a world known as "Dozani" (a realm inhabited by over four billion people, where destinies and conflicts are intertwined under the rule of hidden forces known as "Diss"), every aspect of life is governed by strict laws. Nothing happens without their knowledge, rendering the fates of nations and their people subject to the whims of this power.
When the angels of Diss lay their hands upon a nation, it either transforms into a hell of suffering for its inhabitants or into a radiant sun that brightens their lives.
Welcome to the world of Dozani, where destinies converge, and conflicts deepen. The soldiers of the Tangari realm, known in ancient Dozani as the "Realm of Light," represent the last hope. These warriors, gathered from the greatest beings across the ages, are equipped with the most powerful weapons to face the darkness threatening existence.
According to an ancient prophecy, all these fates may change when a single soldier, out of four million, rises as the key to a war unlike any witnessed before. But will this prophecy come true? And what price must everyone pay to realize it?
Soon, we shall witness the greatest conflict humanity has ever known, where lights and shadows intersect, and destinies entwine in a battle that will decide the fate of the entire world of Dozani.
Part One
Tino: "Father, Mother, I'm going to the Fontra now, and I'll take Dona with me. Goodbye!"
Tino always loved riding his horse, which he named Trucoid, meaning "lightning" for its immense speed and size. Sometimes, he would sneak out of the palace just to enjoy riding freely through the fields.
Tino: "Hello! Sorry for being late."
Though scorned by some of the more powerful members of the royal family, Tino didn't mind. He was always smart and talented, which set him apart.
Tandy, Tino's friend: "Hey, Tino! You look tired today, haha."
Tino: "Oh, it's nothing, just a little stomachache, haha."
Bron, Tino's friend: "Hey, Tino! Come, let's duel! Come on, hurry up, man!"
Tino: "Here I come, but know you'll lose, you rat."
Bron: "We'll see about that! I'm taking this chance to beat you. I'll be the best here! Damn you, Tino!"
Bron was one who disliked those who excelled, especially if they came from a lesser family like Tino's.
Students: "Oh, Tino and Bron are dueling? This will be exciting! Let's go watch!"
Master Toriala: "Now, we shall determine your strength in a training match. Here are the conditions:
Rule one: No iron swords allowed. You will use wooden swords only.
Rule two: No sharp tools that could cause serious harm."
If anyone violates these rules, we will intervene immediately, and the violator will face strict punishment. Remember, these rules fall under orders from the Fontra himself.
Bron mutters to himself: "To hell with Fontra and the teachers! Let's see whose rule stands. Don't they know I'm from the Godrado family?"
(The Godrado family is one of the greatest families, ranking third among the world's finest. The name 'Godrado' means 'doom' in ancient Dozani.)
Bron: "Are you ready?"
Tino: "Yes."
Bron: "Then let's begin!"
Tar, Tino's friend: "Tino, be careful! Bron isn't here for training; he wants to kill you!"
Bron: "Did you hear your friend? Yes, I'm here to crush you today! Take this!"
Tino: "Didn't we say this is a training duel? Aren't we friends?"
Bron: "Damn you, who are you to be my friend? Your family is inferior to ours!"
The duel began, quick strikes and wooden clashes resonated throughout the Fontra, as students eagerly watched. The battle grew fierce, with some cheering for Tino while others rooted for Bron.
Tino: "Winning isn't just about strength, Bron, but intelligence too!"
Bron lunged again, but Tino swiftly dodged the strike. Tino turned and, with agility, landed a sudden blow. Bron barely blocked it, but he began losing control of his temper.
Master Toriala, with a voice filled with worry: "Remember, this is a training fight!"
But Bron ignored him, using uncontrolled strength with the intent to seriously harm Tino. At this point, Master Toriala intervened immediately.
Master: "Stop! This is against the rules!"
The students looked at each other in shock; the air was tense and the excitement was rising.
Bron, angrily: "It doesn't matter! I'm from the Godrado family, I won't accept defeat!"
A mysterious figure appears in the arena: "Leave them; the fun has just begun."
The master hesitated: "But…"
The stranger shot him a sharp look, causing him to retreat in fear: "Damn you, I didn't know they'd send you at this time."
The duel reignited, with Bron wielding an iron sword, and Tino doing the same. The duel turned into a real battle, where death would determine the victor.
Both mounted on their horses.
Bron: "Come on, let's finish this now."
Tino: "Today, I will take your head!"
They launched into a fierce assault, dust filling the air as students could see nothing. Suddenly, amid the dust, Bron saw Tino's eyes blazing red, nearly exploding with fury.
Bron, terrified: "What the hell are you? Are you human or demon?!"
In the next instant, he felt something pierce his throat – Tino's sword had made its way through Bron's neck.
Bron, painfully: "Damn you, Tino..."
As the dust settled, everyone was shocked, the arena soaked in blood, Tino's sword embedded in Bron's neck.
Tino slowly withdrew the sword and planted it in the ground, calmly saying: "Brezonash Trafogan" (meaning "Rest in peace" in ancient Dozani).
This was Tino's first real fight, but it would not be his last.
While everyone was in shock and amazement at what Tino had done,
the door of the Fontra opened with a heavy quiet, and a strange man entered.
He wore a black cloak that wrapped around his body, covering most of his face,
while a cold, frightening gleam shone from his eyes. His footsteps whispered secrets,
and soon everyone turned their attention to him.
Student: "He's one of the lords from the world of Dess! We never expected one of them to appear here..."
(The lord approached Tino, looking at him with a steady gaze as if piercing his soul. Then he spoke in a deep voice, using an ancient language understood only by a few, but one that carried undeniable power and influence.)
Lord: "Travez or Levo Desia Torinad" // (meaning "You have crossed the Blood Gate" in ancient Dozian language).
(A nearby attendee translated his words, saying, "You have passed the Blood Test. Prepare for what is to come.")
(Tino, who showed no fear of the lord, responded in a challenging tone.)
Tino: "What do you want from me?"
The lord stepped forward towards Tino, gazing into his eyes with a sharp look, as if it revealed the depths of his soul. In a deep, resonant voice, he began speaking in the ancient language of Dess, a language carrying a terrifying power:
Lord: "Tara Lefootras Dika Nombera Travens Daras"
(Meaning: "Before you, Tino, two paths lie, leading to different fates.")
Then, he translated clearly for everyone to understand:
"Tino, you have two choices. The first is to join the world of Dess, where your strength is honored, and your skills will be refined to reach unimaginable powers. There, you will discover your true identity and the meaning of the blood that runs through your veins."
The lord paused for a moment, his gaze still fixed on Tino, then continued in a soft but strong voice:
"Or you can remain here, surrounded by weak humans, in a world of decay, where you will only face betrayal and endless struggles for power without purpose."
He then added, in the ancient language of Dess, which only enhanced his presence:
"Dara Noma Vilok Travosa"
(Meaning: "Staying here is staying in eternal decay.")
Tino felt the weight of the choice, his eyes drifting between the onlookers, some looking with fear, others with admiration and astonishment. He knew that his decision would change his life forever—either he would leave the world he knew to join the mysterious world of Dess, or he would face his fate among humans with all the challenges it entailed.
Then Tino spoke, his voice low but full of determination:
"Tell me, what does it take to be part of the world of Dess?"
The lord smiled a cold smile and said:
"The first step is to sever all ties to this world. Join us, and you will discover your true powers, and you will become the master of your own fate."
Tino translated the final words to himself softly:
"Either I join the world of Dess or remain here in the eternal decay."
Then, the lord disappeared into the shadows, saying to Tino: "When you make your choice, you may say 'Nogara Turkas' (Nogara Turkas means 'It is decided'), and I will send a messenger to discuss it with you."
And he left Tino stunned and confused, for he was faced with two choices, each harder than the other.
Teacher: "Leave now. And you, Tino, will come with me to the Torgas Room."
Tandy: "What will happen to Tino, I wonder?"
Tar: "We'll find out soon."
(Tino enters the Torgas Room)
Tino: "Sandri Naos." (The official word for entering the Torgas Room)
President Mondel: "Hagrid Pentigon." (A phrase from the ancient Dozan language meaning "Welcome," used for formal greetings)
(The president gestures to his personal assistant)
Assistant, Guardo Tolgard: "Tino, we have learned that you killed the son of one of the great families, Bron, son of Sentian from the Gudrado family, ranked third in the Dozan world's oldest families. Did you know this?"
Tino: "Yes."
Assistant: "And did you know that Bron was the only son of Lord Sentian?"
Tino: "I know."
Assistant: "Do you think his father will remain silent after what happened to his son?"
Tino: "I know there are distinctions in ranks, but if I hadn't killed him, I would have been the one in his place now."
Assistant: "You were aware of the Academy's rules, weren't you?"
Tino: "Yes."
(The president intervenes after a moment of heavy silence)
President Mondel: "Tino, we respect you and your family, but our duties prevent us from overlooking this. Our rules are clear: the use of serious weapons during training is prohibited, and both you and Bron ignored this law and fought to the death. Whatever your motives were, this confrontation could have been avoided. According to the Academy's decisions, you will be expelled."
President Mondel: "I advise you to flee, for Lord Sentian will not leave you and your family in peace."
(Tino listens in silence, as he expected this decision. The expulsion wasn't the greatest catastrophe; it was the fate that awaited him and his family.)
After leaving the Fontara and bidding farewell to his friends, Tino headed to the family mansion, only to be shocked by a sight he had not expected. The mansion was soaked in blood scattered everywhere. He rushed inside to find his mother, Liza, and father, Ryok, lying on the ground, drenched in their blood. He wandered through the mansion, hoping to find someone alive, but found his sister, Eliana, with a knife stabbed into her chest, his brother Ryok with his neck slashed, and his brother Leonard with his stomach torn open, though he was still breathing faintly.
In his last breath, Leonard whispered: "..."
Tino (screaming with all his might): "I swear I will take revenge! I will wipe them all out! I will never forget this sight, and they will regret what they did!"
Ten years later...
Tino is now 17 years old, serving as the assistant to Lord Denguohan, the head of the Tsurgashi family (Tsurgashi means "of the eagles" in the ancient Dozan language).
This family holds the tenth rank among the noble families and is located in the southwestern part of the Dozan world, near the Red Valley.
Lord Denguohan: "Tino, where are you?"
Tino: "My lord, I am here."
Lord Denguohan: "Come to the Thermos Room, I need you to discuss some important matters."
(The "Thermos Room" means the meeting room in the ancient Dozan language.)
Tino: "Okay, I'll be there right away."
Lord Denguohan: "Sit down, Tino."
Tino: "Tenteras Tertwan" (which means "Thank you")
"Now, what's the important matter, my lord?"
Lord Denguohan: "Tino, do you know why I brought you here ten years ago?"
Tino: "Yes, I know."
Lord Denguohan: "Well, do you still want to continue with this, knowing what you know? You know when I say it's the last time, I mean it. This is the last time I'll ask you about it."
Tino: "Before I answer, my lord, do you also know why I am still here?"
Lord Denguohan: "Yes, I know very well, and I am still keeping my word that I will help you."
Tino: "Well, then we agree. I'll continue with you on this matter."
[We return after the Blood Palace battle]
Tino was sitting by the lake, where the water reflected his pale face as he gazed at the remnants of his shattered past. After burying his family members himself, not knowing how to honor them properly, he was just a child with nothing but painful memories and hands stained with the dirt of their graves.
After finishing the burial, he stood before the burned palace, watching the flames consume everything that once formed his world. Soon, news spread across the country about the murder of the "Medezon" family and Tino's sudden disappearance.
While he inhaled the cool air by the lake, trying to arrange his thoughts and plans for the future, a tall man with a stern face and a cold gaze appeared before him. He approached with steady steps.
General Morco: "Come on, boy. Do you want to avenge your family?"
Tino (with a surprised and suspicious expression): "Yes... but who are you?"
General Morco: "I am Morco, the second general in the Dozan army. I was sent by Lord Denguohan. Your father had dealings with him, and he wants to speak with you."
Tino (looking at the lake with deep thought before turning to Morco): "Fine, I'll go with you. I have nowhere to return to anyway... let's see what this old man wants."
Morco led Tino to the "Tsurgashi Family" headquarters, a family known for its bad reputation and skill in managing its interests through devious means. The family was morally divided; Martin, the son, was a skilled swordsman but known for his recklessness and adventures in brothels, even having affairs with women from the family. As for the daughter, Sophia, she despised conflict and spent her time at celebrations, places known as "Peterson" (places for drinking and dancing).
Lord Denguohan, the father, had a bad reputation in the family, especially after he executed his wife and her lover by beheading them. Since then, he had been known for his brutality and harsh control over the family. The youngest son, Thomas, was the only one who possessed wisdom and martial prowess, known by the title "The Rat Catcher" for his intelligence and strong military tactics.
Although the Tsurgashi family was not one of the highest-ranked noble families, underestimating them always led to disastrous results for anyone who belittled their abilities. They were known for their cunning and their skill in scheming to achieve their goals.
We return to Tino and General Morco on their way.
Tino: What do you think your master will tell me?
General Morco: I don't know. And listen, boy, according to the rules of the Tsurgashi family, no words are allowed outside. These trees listen to us. Remember this well, you're very arrogant despite your young age.
Tino: Damn you, man! After everything that's happened to me, you're telling me I'm young? A lot has happened to me, and I'm sure it hasn't even happened in your dreams.
General Morco: (He looks at him sternly, then remembers that Lord Donghan said he wants him alive, so he falls silent).
After a day.
General Morco: We've arrived, get ready.
Tino: (Staring at the palace in amazement) Damn! What is this palace? It's even more beautiful than my palace. Is this heaven?
General Morco: (Frowning) Pull yourself together, you brat. We're entering the palace now. Lord Donghan told me to bring you, but she will help you with the rest.
Tino: Who is she?
Karma, Lord Donghan's personal maid: Hello, sir. Let me show you to your room and the place where you will bathe. Once you're done, you will meet Lord Donghan.
Tino: Alright, let's go.
Tino: (Exploring the palace) Oh, does this old man live in this palace alone?
Karma: No, he lives with his children.
Tino: And where is his wife?
Karma: (In a low voice) He executed her, along with her lover.
Tino: (Swallowing) Damn, this old man seems strict with his laws.
Karma: Yes, he is very strict, and it's not advisable to bring this topic up with him.
Tino: Alright, don't worry.
Karma: (Laughs lightly) I'm not worried. The worry is all on you, not me.
Tino: (Sighs) Damn you. Is this palace like this all the time? You're all a bunch of fools. I feel suffocated in this gloomy palace.
Karma: We've arrived now, this is your room.
Tino: Alright, thank you. You can go now, I'll finish the rest myself.
Karma: Alright. And you'll find the restroom to your left after you enter. You can take a bath now and rest a little, and at night, you'll meet Lord Donghan.
Tino: "Finally, it's time to rest..."
Then he recalls the scene of his family's death, and anger begins to creep back in.
Tino (smirking sarcastically): "Haha, are you joking with me, Tino? Do you really think there's rest? Revenge alone awaits us… No place for rest anymore."
Tino stands up and heads for the bath, putting on the clothes Karma brought for him, and eats. At night, Karma comes to escort him.
Karma: "Master Tino, it's time."
Tino: "Let's go."
(At the moment Tino enters to meet Lord Donghan)
Tino: "Greetings to you, my lord."
Lord Donghan: "Sit, Tino. Karma, leave the room and don't interrupt."
(Lord Donghan looks directly into Tino's eyes and gets straight to the point)
Lord Donghan: "Tino, I will be blunt with you. Do you know who I really am?"
Tino: "They told me you are Lord Donghan, the leader of the Tsurgashi family."
Lord Donghan: "Correct. Before your father's death, we were close friends, and we signed a treaty to remain united, sharing wars and spoils. We sent a letter to the DESS world, asking for unity to form as one family. As you know, this is forbidden. Your father expected they would respond with punishment, and he was right. So, your father asked me that if anything happens to your family, I should protect and care for you..."
(A pause for a few seconds)
Lord Donghan: "So, will you agree to be adopted and become part of my family?"
Tino (with a firm voice): "Do I have another choice? Alright, I agree."
Lord Donghan: "Good. There's one more thing. Since you are the son of my loyal friend, I ask you to take revenge on the remaining nine families. In return, I will reveal to you the secrets of the DESS world."
(Tino looks at him with sharp eyes)
Tino: "As long as I have something to gain from it, I agree."
Lord Donghan: "Great. Tomorrow you will head to the Eagles Hall for training. I will recommend Master Tsunati, the third strongest master in the world, to oversee your training. And remember, our family's title is not only Tsurgashi, we are also known as 'The Assassins Family.'"
Tino: "Alright, see you tomorrow."
(After Tino leaves)
Tino (on his way to his room, recalling his brother Leonar's words): "Don't trust anyone."
(Years pass, and Tino trains hard to become the strongest person in the Tsurgashi family, preparing for his revenge.)
Let's return to the present.
Lord Donghan: "Alright, tomorrow you and Assistant Storm will head to the Sarison family."
The Sarison family (meaning the Ice Family) is one of the 9 families currently ranked 8th, located in the northern part of the Duzani world, known as the Emperors' Region, as emperors of the world graduated from their academy. It houses powerful and fierce soldiers, and the family leader is Lord Togara.
Tino: "Alright, but I need details about the region's exits, entrances, and its fortresses. I want to know how many people are in the palace and how long it will take us to reach there."
Lord Donghan: "Fine, I'll provide everything. I'll prepare it all, and you come to the office room tonight."
The office room contains plans of all the families, and now we'll continue, and you'll understand everything.
Tino: "Alright, I'll go finish my training and we'll meet at night. Goodbye, old man."
At night:
Karma: "Master Tino, Lord Donghan requires your presence now. Please come with me."
Tino: "Alright, I'm coming."
Karma: "Greetings, Master. Tino is here."
Lord Donghan: "Alright, let him in now."
Tino: "Sanderi Naoms" (a greeting meaning "Hello, my Lord").
Lord Donghan: "Please, Tino, no introductions. We'll get straight to the point as there are matters we need to discuss."
Tino: "Alright, let's begin now. I want all the information about the palace and the family."
Lord Donghan: "I'll tell you everything, but before that, if your mission ends up in exposure, leave everyone with you and run away. I want you only, don't die, man!"
Tino (thinking to himself, disgusted): (Damn you, old man. Do you really treat souls as games?)
Tino: "Don't worry, I won't die until I get my revenge."
Lord Donghan: "Alright, I'll tell you everything now. First, the palace has seven rooms: three of them are for Lord Togara's children.
The children are:
- Suzani, a girl with high talent in swordsmanship, and her skill surpasses that of many of the great princes.
- Charton, skilled in explosives and setting traps.
- Tanor, who nearly wiped out an entire family on his own.
The other four rooms are for Lord Togara's four wives:
- The first is Sani.
- The second is Monica.
- The third is Tala.
- The fourth is Jumana.
Charton and Tanor's mother is Tala, while Monica is the mother of Suzani. As for Sani and Jumana, they didn't have children. This creates competition and hatred among the wives, which we exploited to our advantage."
Tino: "How did you exploit that?"
Lord Donghan: "We sent a secret letter to each wife through spies, making each one believe the other was plotting to kill her. We told Sani that Tala was trying to get rid of her, and we invited her to try a poisoned cup of tea on one of the servants to confirm it.
Indeed, Sani had the servant drink the cup, and she died immediately from the powerful 'Ghamarat' poison. Then, Sani killed Tala, and when her deed was discovered, she was executed."
Tino: "I see. What about the remaining wives?"
Lord Donghan: "Jumana was very smart and discovered the poison in her coffee, so she killed the spy who tried to poison her. As for Monica, she met a horrific end at night, where one of our spies slit her belly while she was asleep.
The palace fell into chaos, and this is what we will use to our advantage. The day after tomorrow, you will infiltrate the palace from the northern gate, and the spy, Tentaso, will open the doors for you. Give him this letter, and he will understand.
Once the mission is complete, he will meet you outside the gate after he poisons the guards. You will enter wearing masks, and if anyone is discovered, kill them immediately."
Tino: "Seems like everything is well-planned."
Lord Donghan: "Yes. The first three rooms will be empty. In the fourth room, you'll find Jumana and Togara. The fifth room is for Suzani, the sixth for Charton, and the seventh for Tanor. Start by killing Togara, but beware, this old man is still dangerous if he wakes up. As for Tanor, you can kill him while he sleeps at midnight.
Then, place smoke bombs in Charton's room, lock the door and windows, and let him suffocate from the smoke. As for Suzani, we'll handle her through the soldier Trokadi, who will face her in a battle to end her life."
Tino: "And what about Jumana?"
Lord Donghan: "Don't kill her, bring her to me. I want to enjoy my time with her. After completing the mission, leave through the back door, turn off the lights, and burn the palace down completely.
I repeat, if anyone is discovered, kill them immediately to prevent a setback."
Tino (with a sarcastic smile): "I hope I never play against you, though you'll die in two days. Seems like your mind is working at full capacity."
Lord Donghan: "Haha, just a simple trick, and I didn't expect this family to fall for it until now. I wish you a pleasant journey, and take Generals Morco, Tsamo, and Jamo with you. Divide the tasks well among them.
You will leave at dawn. You have two hours left, go now and prepare."
Tino: "Alright, goodbye, see you later."
Tino: - "Let's go now, generals. I will be your leader on this mission, and it's either death or return. Let's move."
In the dark shadows, Tino and the generals headed towards their target on a mission to kill, or rather, to commit mass genocide. The air was thick with anticipation and danger.
General Morco: - "Tino, aren't you afraid? You're still young, and now you've become like us, an assassin. Aren't you afraid of what might happen?"
Tino (laughing sarcastically): - "Heh, man, the time for fear ended years ago. Now begins the age of corruption and control."
General Tasamo (teasing): - "Morco, you'd better be afraid of Tino. He's become heartless toward this world."
General Morco: - "Heh, I'll keep that in mind."
General Jammo (whispering and warning): - "Shh... quiet. I hear sounds from around. Do you hear what I hear?"
Tino: - "No, I don't hear anything."
General Jammo: - "Stay still and listen carefully... There's something there." (pointing to the left)
Suddenly, an arrow from a distant location strikes General Morco in the shoulder.
General Morco (in pain): - "Ah! What the hell was that? Who shot this?!"
Tino: - "Damn it! Stay here, I'll flank them and assassinate them. As for you, hurry up and get to the designated place. Jammo will guide you. We'll meet at the Dogaraz nest to the north. Move quickly!"
The generals take off, and Tino heads on a mission to hunt the enemies.
One of the enemies: - "Sir, it seems they have fled, but we've hit one of them."
Enemy Leader: - "Then let's chase them, we are ten, and they are only four."
Suddenly, Tino appears out of nowhere, skillfully drawing his sword to decapitate two enemy soldiers with one strike.
The soldiers (in panic): - "Sir! They killed two of us!"
Before the leader could respond, Tino steps forward quickly and slashes his throat, then stands, challenging the remaining soldiers.
Tino (smiling coldly): - "Come to me, you bastards!"
The bloody battle continues, lasting no more than fifteen minutes before Tino ends it by killing the last soldier and asks him:
Tino: - "Who are you, and who sent you?"
But the soldier breaks a poison vial hidden in his mouth and dies before he can speak.
Tino (angrily): - "Damn you, idiot!"
Tino returns to find the generals at the "Dogaraz Nest," and the sun has risen. He arrives to find General Morco unconscious, having bled profusely.
General Jammo: - "Sir, what happened out there?"
Tino: - "I'll tell you later, but for now, how is Morco?"
General Jammo: - "His condition is bad. He bled a lot until he passed out, and his pulse is very weak."
Tino (nervously): - "Damn it."
Tino enters beside Morco and asks General Tasamo to leave with Jammo.
General Tasamo: - "Please, not like this. He was our friend."
Tino: - "I'm sorry, but I have no choice."
Tino plunges a dagger into Morco's heart, then steps out to tell the generals to bury him so that no one finds his body.
General Jammo (reluctantly): - "What about the plan now? Isn't it better to withdraw and prepare a new plan?"
Tino (angrily): - "No retreat. If you want to go back, then go. I don't want cowards with me. The mission's interest is bigger than our loss. If we retreat, we'll have wasted everything we've done."
General Tasamo: - "I envy your courage. As for me, I'm with you."
Tino: - "If you envy me, envy me for the death of my family right before my eyes as well."
General Jammo (in regret): - "Sir, I apologize for what I said. I will be with you."
Tino: - "Alright, let's bury this brave man and wipe the blood traces."
The Generals: - "Your command, Sir."
Thus, Tino and the generals continue on their path, towards an unknown fate, defying all the obstacles that await them.
After finishing the burial and hiding the traces, darkness fell. They then changed their clothes, which were stained with blood, and headed north again.
Tino: "Are you ready?"
Generals: "Yes, sir."
Tino: "Now, cover your faces. We don't want to be discovered."
Generals: "Understood, sir."
They left the Dogaraz Nest and headed towards the cold northern kingdom, where snow scattered across the ground. As they approached the kingdom, they saw three soldiers coming out.
Tino: "We will kill the soldiers, take their clothes, and wear them quickly. Understood?"
Generals: "Understood, sir."
Tino and the generals ambushed the soldiers until they got close, then slit their throats, took their clothes, and headed towards the gate. At the gate, they encountered Mr. Dungohan's spy, named Tony. Tino gave him the letter, which read: "These are my subordinates. Prepare to leave."
Tony looked at Tino and said: "Of course, sir. I will be waiting for you at four in the morning."
Tino: "Alright, I'll rely on you for this."
Tino took the letter and threw it into the fire that the northern soldiers had started. Then he gestured for the generals towards the back door and gave them a look that signified that this was the door. They nodded in agreement, and it was midnight, the hour that would be the trial for the northern kingdom.
Tino: "Now, let's go, generals. We will split up, and after we're done, we'll meet at the gate at four in the morning."
Generals: "Understood, take care, sir."
They all parted ways. Tino headed to Mr. Togara, General Tasamo went to Lady Jumana, and General Jammo went to Prince Tanor. Tino's mission was to kill Mr. Togara and then Prince Charton. As for Princess Suzani, she had been killed by the rogue soldier, Trokadi.
Tino: "Let's finish this annoying thing and return. I have a bad feeling, but I'll change that now. Let's go."
Tino spied on Mr. Togara's room until he found him asleep. Suddenly, as Tino opened the door, Mr. Togara spoke: "So, you've come at last? I was waiting for you."
Tino (thinking to himself): "Damn, does he know who I am?"
Mr. Togara: "I didn't know it was you, but when they told me you joined the Tsurgashi family, I believed it. The Tsurgashi family is known for its treachery throughout history. Your father was my friend, but after you joined this family and killed half of my family, you ended that friendship, Ryok's son."
Tino: "So, let's finish this now, we both have our reasons for doing this."
Tino then struck Mr. Togara with his sword, but Togara blocked the strike in surprise and said: "Not so fast."
Tino: "So, you're a special case. I'll deal with you with force and end this quickly."
Tino rushed towards Mr. Togara, and while Togara tried to dodge the strike, the sword pierced his shoulder. Togara dropped his sword and said: "Now you'll witness your destruction."
Then Mr. Togara released an aura that terrified everyone and said: "We'll see soon. You'll know the meaning of the ninth king of the DESS world."
Tino: "Damn you, Mr. Dungohan. Looks like you've put me in a bind. Damn the Tsurgashi family."

Now, let's move to the DESS world.
The eighth king, Kkora: "Looks like we're going to enjoy this now, hehehe. Send word to King Manohera that we've finally found him, and tell him that the ninth king has been crushed."

Now, let's return to the battle.
Mr. Togara rushed at a speed faster than sound, stabbing Tino in the stomach and wounding his foot. He almost slit Tino's throat, but Tino dodged the strike. Tino said to Togara: "I feel madness and excitement. What is this beautiful feeling?" Then he uttered the words: "San Frakuti Nazosi," which means "Absolute Blood Power."
Jammo: "What are these tremors? I don't feel calm at all, damn it. What's going on? We need to hurry."
Mr. Togara realized it was his end and said: "Let's finish this now."
Suddenly, Tino found his head in his hands. Mr. Togara couldn't comprehend what had happened until he said: "It's really you," then he died, marking the end of the ninth king of the DESS world.
Now, let's go to Jammo, who went to Prince Tanor. This was the easiest fight, as the prince was asleep. Jammo seized the opportunity and killed him, with the help of the spy Tramo.
Now, only General Tasamo, Lady Jumana, and Prince Charton remained, the one Tino would deal with while injured.
The fight between General Tasamo and Lady Jumana was a battle of strength and intelligence. Jumana set a trap for Tasamo, but she weakened due to the sleeping potion that the spy Mariala had put in her tea cup. Tasamo took advantage of the opportunity and drove a dagger into her heart, then they quickly fled.
Spy Tony had poisoned the soldiers and prepared everything.
Now, only Prince Charton remained.
Tino: "Damn, I got wounded by that old fool, but it's fine. Let's finish this and leave."
Tino approached Prince Charton, kicked him forcefully in the face, then threw explosives and closed the windows, causing huge explosions. Tino fell from the top of the palace and broke his leg. Spy Tony was waiting for him, as everyone else had arrived except for Tino.
Tony: "I'll have to leave now, or we'll all die."
General Jammo: "Who's going to know? Look around, everyone has been wiped out."
Tony pointed upwards and said: "They will know, and if they do, the Tsurgashi family will fall. I'm pulling out now."
In the end, they found Tino, covered in injuries, leaning on Trokadi, who had saved him at the last moment.
Tony: "Hurry, hurry!"
They then jumped into the cart and quickly fled towards the southwest of the world, where the Tsurgashi family resided.
