*BOOOM!!* *THUD*

    A massive blast ripped through the building, sending debris flying in all directions. Amidst the chaos, the Queen and I jumped out into the open air, locked in combat.

    "Arghhh!!" Her scream pierced the roaring winds, her sword slicing toward me with deadly precision.

    I blocked her strike, smirking as the sheer force of her attack sent shockwaves across the city. She gritted her teeth, her aura flaring brighter, as if eagerly wants to burn me to ash. With a furious cry, she swung again, her blade trailing ribbons of crimson energy.

    This time, I stopped the attack with my bare arm.

    "What the-" she expressed.

    The world seemed to halt. Time itself froze as her sword pressed against my forearm, unable to cut through. Her eyes widened in disbelief, and silence came upon, broken only by the faint sound of the wind.

    "Hehe," I chuckled, tilting my head. "Surprised, Majesty?"

    Before she could respond, I spun on my heel and delivered a devastating kick to her face. The impact sent her hurtling into the ground with a resounding *thud*.

    "Majesty!!" Four of her knights screamed as they rushed to her aid.

    "You bastard!" one of them growled, charging at me with his weapon raised. "How dare you raise a leg at the Queen of the country!!"

    "Huhh!" I smiled, dodging their attacks with ease. My movements were fluid, calculated, and in moments, all four of them were sprawled on the ground.

    "Stay out of it, you kids," I said, dusting off my hands.

    The Queen groaned, struggling to her feet. Her grip on her sword tightened as she leapt toward me with ferocity. This time, she caught me off guard, wrapping her arms around my waist and pushing me backward with surprising strength.

    With a crash, I slammed into a stone walls. One after another but she didn''t let go of me and kept pushing her strength. She held me firmly, but I only smirked.@@@@

    "My, my, so bold," I teased, grabbing her waist.

    Her eyes widened in alarm as I lifted her off the ground, my face now level with her thighs.

    "Put me down!" she demanded, shaking in my grasp.

    I tilted my head, my smirk growing wider. "Such a bold woman you are," I said, letting my gaze linger near her groin.

    "I guess this is it," I said casually, stepping back. "That was fun, Majesty. But I''ve got better things to do."

    I turned to walk away, but her voice stopped me.

    "S-stop..." she said, her voice trembling.

    I glanced over my shoulder, watching as she forced herself to her feet. Blood trickled from the corner of her mouth, but her resolve hadn''t wavered.

    "Where do you think you''re going?" she demanded, her voice growing stronger. "Right now, the whole world is your enemy! All the knights are mobilizing. There''s nowhere for you to run!"

    I stopped in my tracks, turning to face her. My expression was emotionless, cold.

    "Run?" I said, my voice low. "Who said anything about running... and from whom?"

    She flinched as my aura began to shift. A deep purple light engulfed me, spreading outward in an overwhelming wave. The entire city was bathed in its glow, and the air grew heavy with power.

    "What is this?" she whispered, her voice tinged with fear.

    From below, civilians gasped and pointed at the sky.

    "What is that purple light?" someone asked.

    Above them, I floated higher into the air, my sword glowing with the same menacing aura.

    "Now, behold the strength of my true power!" I declared, raising my blade high.

    "I...." I groaned. "Am...."

    The Queen stared at me, stunned and trembling. She clutched her sword, her mind racing as memories of the nuke at the sorority house flashed before her eyes.

    "This... this can''t be happening," she muttered.

    I tilted my head, a dark smile playing on my lips.

    "Nuclear....." I whispered, the word hanging in the air like a doom.

    —And then, a blinding light erupted from my sword, consuming the entire city in its brilliance. The Queen and everyone else shielded their eyes as the light spread, its intensity unmatched.

    And then... silence.
