Kakai arrived, with a calm that bordered on menace.
"Great Lord Kakai, we have new information, and the mission was a success!" Ebu said, the pride of duty fulfilled stamped on his face.
"You can speak in front of Neret. He is like a brother to me," Kakai said, his gaze a vow of unbreakable loyalty to Neret.
"Momoco, Gitana, and Saferin were in northern Brazil, in the great tropical forest. They brought back two children," Ebu said.
"Dismissed," Kakai commanded, his tone of voice concluding the matter and moving to the next challenge.
"Ugorin," Kakai called.
"Why are you calling my daughter?" Neret asked, his posture immediately protective, his fatherly loyalty taking over.
"We're going to take an uncle-and-niece stroll," Kakai replied, a mysterious smile lighting up his face.
"Be careful with her heart," Neret said, the warning loaded with affection and concern.
"Don't worry. I would give my own heart if that were the case," Kakai said, reaffirming the family bond with dramatic intensity.
"Seal Break," Kakai spoke, and the dimension tore open with a resounding noise.
They opened a dimension and ended up in Nepal. Everything was frozen, all the people in the village had died, and there he sat alone. Pain and trauma hung in the air.
"Ugorin, go talk to him," Kakai ordered, giving Ugorin a mission of empathy.
"Who are you?" the boy asked, his voice small, but with a hint of challenge.
Ugorin sat beside him.
"My name is Ugorin, and yours?" she asked, with the softness of a friendship forming.
"My name is Dokmon."
"What? Your name is very strange, Dokmon. It sounds like... a cow's name!" Ugorin said, bursting into laughter, breaking the tension with unexpected comedy.
"Yours is the strange one, Ugorin!" Dokmon said, angry and red, reacting to the mockery.
"Are you alone here?" Ugorin asked, returning to empathy.
"Yes," Dokmon replied.
"Why don't you come with me and my uncle?"
"WHAT? Are you proposing to me? Look, I accept! I accept the challenge of being your husband!" Dokmon replied, euphoric, trading trauma for exaggerated romantic determination.
"No! I'm not proposing to you. You're not my type, period!" Ugorin replied with a tone of superiority, the refusal reinforcing her pride.
"Ugorin, one day I'm going to be your type, I swear! Consider yourself married!" Dokmon replied, sealing the promise with the force of a vow.
"Uncle, he's coming!" Ugorin said, already accepting his eccentric loyalty.
"You're Ugorin's uncle?" Dokmon asked.
"Yes," Kakai replied.
"She is married now! We're going to live many adventures!" Dokmon said, his voice full of triumph.
"What do you mean?" Kakai asked, momentarily surprised by the development.
"Don't mind him, Uncle. He's a little crazy," Ugorin said, with the naturalness of someone dealing with extreme characters.
They opened the dimension and arrived.
"This is your room, Dokmon," Kakai said.
"But this is not my beloved Ugorin's room!" Dokmon said, with an exaggerated romantic tone.
"What's this 'my beloved' business?" Neret asked, his voice rising in protective fury.
"You lost, Uncle, Ugorin is my wife now! You'll have to fight for her!" Dokmon said, the comical threat hanging in the air.
Back at the training ground, Nanai faced a spirit, her body a machine of precision and effort. She sliced its neck with a quick, victorious cut.
"You are a bunch of softies! If you keep this up, you'll never win!" Nanai said, her fighter's pride evident.
"Don't talk about your little brother, Fukuoka, like that! We are saving our vital energy!" Yoshi said, trying to disguise his exhaustion.
"It's just that it's very hot, and we are saving energy to fight the great spirit in the temple! It's a survival strategy!" Fukuoka, sweating profusely but full of epic excuses.
Walking through the forest.
"Oh, I'm so hungry! My stomach is screaming for energy for the next fight!" Fukuoka said, his stomach rumbling.
"You guys are so annoying! Stop being weak!" Nanai said.
"There are some apples over there, let's grab them. A warrior needs sustenance!" Yoshi said, reminding them of the importance of preparation.
They grabbed them and sat down to eat.
"Nanai, what's your status? Married? Single? A wounded heart needs a good romance to rise again!" Fukuoka asked, mixing interest with philosophy.
"I don't have time for such useless things. My only goal is to get stronger!" Nanai replied, focused on the pursuit of power.
"Dating is not useless! It's one of the most important bonds! I really wanted to have a girlfriend," Fukuoka said, with a depressive but sincere tone.
Nanai laughed loudly.
"You've never kissed anyone?! You're a joke!" Nanai said.
"You are hilarious!" Nanai said, tears of laughter streaming down her face.
"Don't laugh! I'll get embarrassed and lose my determination!" Fukuoka said, turning red.
"If we get out of here alive and achieve victory, I'll take two girls out for our dinner tonight," Nanai said, turning the promise into an incentive.
"Deal! THE PRIZE IS VICTORY AND DINNER! LET'S GO!" Fukuoka, exploding with renewed energy.
The Triumph of Destruction
When they arrived at the temple, Zaren and Zulian were already fighting the spirit, their abilities pushed to the limit.
Fukuoka came running at extreme speed, releasing all his saved energy.
"Get out of the way, you idiots! The great Fukuoka is arriving with his helpers to finish off this spirit! THE VICTORY IS MINE!" Fukuoka shouted, the self-proclaimed hero.
"No one deserves this," Nanai said, but a slight smile of admiration and resignation crossed her face.
Fukuoka delivered such a powerful kick to the spirit that it fell unconscious on top of the temple, destroying everything. It was the triumph of brute force and comical overcoming!
Nobaru emerged from her dimension, shouting loudly.
"You idiots! You were only supposed to defeat the spirit and NOT DESTROY THE TEMPLE!" Nobaru yelled, angry.
"Since when has she been watching us? Did she see you peeing in the bushes?" Yoshi said, trying to divert the focus from the epic destruction.
"Boys, you don't need to be ashamed. I've seen bigger things," Nobaru said, her ambiguous phrase increasing the embarrassment.
The boys looked depressed, while Nanai laughed like a maniac, the excitement of the chaos and the final comedy exploding in her.
