The core chamber of the tower was a pulsating heart of energy, casting eerie shadows across the cavernous room. The rebels and their allies stood on the threshold, their resolve tested but unbroken. Ahead of them, a row of imposing figures materialized—entities radiating power and malice.
Kael stepped forward, his voice steady. "This is it. The gods await."
Nathan, his demonic aura crackling, couldn't resist a final quip. "Gods?” murmured, he knows what they are and they are far from the gods that they fear
The central figure, a towering being with blazing eyes and an aura of menace, laughed darkly. "You dare challenge us? Pathetic mortals. We are the gods of this world."
Elara's grip tightened on her weapon. "Your reign ends today."
The battle commenced with a clash of energies and weapons. Nathan unleashed his full demonic fury, his power a torrent of chaos that collided with the so-called gods' defenses. Elara and Kael fought with precision and strategy, coordinating their strikes to weaken the enemy's lines.
In the midst of the chaos, Selene and Christian worked to destabilize the core. Christian's fingers flew over the control panel, his rubber chicken by his side. Selene, providing cover, couldn't help but smirk at his unlikely charm.
"You're really going to rely on that thing?" Selene asked, ducking a blast of energy.
Christian grinned and hugged his special 'thing'
As the battle raged on, Lina, driven by thoughts of her sister, fought with a ferocity that surprised even her allies. She faced off against a god with a burning whip, her determination unyielding.
The god sneered. "You think you can defeat us? We are eternal!"
Lina's eyes blazed. "Eternal or not, you're going down."
hearing her voice that is not from the communication device, Christian look at her troublesome sister. She is supposed to stay out!
Everyone's against here, coming over to the tower. Considering her state!
With a swift, decisive strike, she disarmed her opponent using her ice and blade, her blade cutting through the whip with a satisfying snap. Beside her, Nathan hurled a ball of demonic fire, engulfing another god in flames.
As the battle reached its peak, the central figure's facade began to crack. The gods' power wavered, and their forms flickered. Kael, sensing an opportunity, shouted, "They're weakening! Press the attack!"
Elara, seizing the moment, struck the central figure with a forceful blow. The entity staggered, its true form briefly revealed—a grotesque, demonic visage twisted with malice and desperation.
"They're not gods!" Elara shouted. "They're demons!"
The revelation spread like wildfire, bolstering the rebels' resolve. The gods' pretenses shattered, their illusions dissolving. Enraged and exposed, the demons fought with renewed ferocity, but the insurgents now knew the truth—they were facing creatures that fed on fear and control, not divine beings.
Nathan, his demonic heritage giving him insight, snarled, "You're nothing but parasites, feeding off humans’ worship!"
The central demon, now fully revealed, roared in fury. "You will bow before us!"
Selene, her eyes blazing with determination, replied, "We bow to no one."
With a final, coordinated effort, the rebels and their allies unleashed their combined power on the core. Christian, his lucky rubber chicken clutched tightly, hit the final sequence. The core began to destabilize, its energy spiraling out of control.
The central demon screamed in rage and fear. "No! This cannot be!"
Kael, his voice resolute, shouted, "It's over. Your tyranny ends now."
The core imploded in a blinding flash of light and energy, engulfing the demons in its wake. The tower shook violently, cracks spider-webbing through its structure. The rebels, their mission complete, raced to escape the collapsing edifice.
As they emerged into the daylight, the tower crumbled behind them, a monumental symbol of their victory. Breathless and battered, they watched as the once-imposing structure was reduced to rubble.
Elara turned to her comrades, a triumphant smile on her face. "We did it."
Nathan came closer to Lina, ever the joker, and raised an eyebrow. "So, about that beach vacation..."
Lina, her eyes shining with relief and determination, added, "And finding my sister."
Selene, looking at the ruins, added, "The gods—or rather, the demons—are gone. But our fight isn't over. We have a world to rebuild."
Christian looks at her. The child almost forgot about the bees and catastrophe that the world is facing
“I thought if we finish this off, every creature causing havoc on our land will perish?”
Selene looks at the confused child “What nonsense are you thinking? tower and those monsters are different things!”
Nodding, Christian thinks that he only knows little about the tower even if he’s originally from the tower
the uneasiness he felt was covered by his anticipation of reuniting with his friends
