Amon, The Legendary Overlord

In the encompassing Monteiro Forest, near the majestic Eloren Royal Palace, a spectacle of colors flourished among the tall, some fruit-bearing, trees. The canopies displayed a vibrant tapestry, a symphony of green, red, pink, and yellow, while the sun and two moons rose, painting the horizon.

Sunlight danced upon the moons, projecting iridescent hues that bathed the forest in an almost ethereal atmosphere, akin to the splendor of an aurora borealis.

At the edge of the central lake, a gathering of unique animals took shape, including genetically unique species, among them a remarkable mechanical creation, surprisingly originating from natural procreation.

"The beings here are truly exceptional..." Maisa whispered softly, cautious not to disturb the tranquil assembly of genetic beings.

"Yes, and the purity of their genetic structures is remarkable," Barbara replied, her contagious smile lighting up her face.

"I understand, but..." Maisa interjected, toning down her enthusiasm. "I think it's better not to hunt these animals just to extract their cores. If they attack us, fine, but it would be wiser to leave them be otherwise."

"Well, I know that," Barbara replied, feigning a disappointed expression. "I was just commenting, I have no intention of going around like a ruthless hunter."

Maisa chuckled, "Got it, just wanted to point that out," she said, delicately covering her lips like ladies from past eras while laughing.

Meanwhile, Mabel, absorbed in a hologram in front of her, added, "There are records that these animals recognize strength and don't attack without reason. If we show some of our power, they probably won't see us as threats."

"In that case, that's what we'll do," agreed Amon.

Amidst the absence of signs of the genetic monsters, they opted to change their route. It made no sense to linger in an area teeming with genetic animals when their objective was to locate the monstrous creatures.

As tension mounted in the forest, a cool breeze swept through the trees, creating a gentle melody. The group's footsteps echoed, each attentive to the movements around them. Amon led, exuding an energy instinctively feared by the local animals.

"Julia, wait...!" said Mabel, walking alongside Julia, halting the latter's step to prevent her from stepping on a plant.

"What's up?" Julia stepped back, awaiting Mabel's explanation.

Mabel crouched down, carefully removing a green leafy plant with pink details. Holding it up to Julia, she explained, "See this plant? It has properties to clear the mind when used in tea."

"Ah, got it." Julia showed pleasant surprise and smiled. "Glad you stopped me in time, then."

Mabel smiled back. "After we rest a bit, I'll prepare a tea with these leaves; it might come in handy."

"Perfect," agreed Julia with a nod.

Soon, they continued on their journey. Along the way, they encountered some animals that, upon sensing the group's presence, immediately fled or hid.

Among them all, Amon emanated the strongest aura, causing the animals to flee even faster or conceal themselves.

Ariel discreetly observed Amon's profile, complex feelings bubbling within her. A mix of fear and strange excitement made her hum softly. At that moment, she felt her choice was right. Deep down, her love for him was undeniable, and perhaps it wouldn't be as lost as she feared...

Julia, as perceptive as ever, noticed something unusual in Ariel's expression. "What happened to her? Has she finally completely succumbed to Amon's charms?"

She wasn't far from the truth, but she believed Ariel simply acknowledged the inevitability of the situation. She had no idea that not only had Ariel failed to hide her feelings, but she had also already confirmed her relationship with Amon...

"Watch out!"

Amon's sudden alert cry brought them back to reality.

"Whoosh!"

Above them, a winged creature dived toward the group, rapidly growing in its meteoric descent. Roars of cutting winds echoed as the winged beast descended engulfed in blazing flames, assuming the appearance of a creature made of pure fire.

Noticing the creature reaching Level 3 Innate power, Amon didn't attempt to intervene. Though it would be simple for him to eliminate such a creature with a snap of his fingers, their goal there was primarily to develop the girls' abilities. This would be evaluated upon their return from the mission.

In a coordinated synchrony, Mabel and Ariel stood out, lifting trees and large rocks around them, hurling them toward the beast.

Agitated sounds reverberated during the process, followed by throwing noises slicing the air like intense buzzing.

When the trees hit the descending beast, they were practically instantly consumed by the fire. Even the rocks began to change color at a surprising speed as they neared the creature, soon exploding due to exposure to extreme temperatures.

Observing this, the girls retreated.

"The flames from this creature are dangerous, we need to be careful!" warned Mabel, her voice serious.

The others nodded, no hint of playfulness in their demeanor.

Despite having Amon there as a safeguard, they were determined to do their best on their own, not relying entirely on him. Otherwise, it would all be in vain, and it would be easier to let Amon resolve it with a simple gesture and end the beast's life.

"Trust me!" boldly declared Maisa. "Let it come our way!"

Immediately, with fluid hand gestures in the air, almost like a dance, Maisa began to erect a kind of spherical shield around each of them.

Curious, Mabel touched the shield around her, her surprise evident.

Maisa's voice echoed again, "This shield should withstand the attack from this fire beast. It should be at Level 3 almost 4 in terms of defense, especially against a fire attack."

The winged beast, diving toward the group, unleashed a furious explosion of flames shooting in all directions. However, upon hitting the shields raised by Maisa, a resilient barrier rose against the searing heat.

The incandescent glow of the flames met resistance in Maisa's shield, which remained firm and intact, challenging the intensity of the creature's attack. The heat dissipated around the shield, unable to penetrate or harm the group. stay-updated-with-MVLeMpYr

Mabel looked amazed at the shield, surprised by its efficacy. "Incredible, Maisa! This shield is truly powerful."

With a focused gaze, Maisa kept the shield steady, holding it firm against the firestorm. "It's holding up, but I don't know for how long. We need to find an opening to counterattack!"

"Leave it to me!"
