Chapter 8
X stood at the peak of a floating island, the clouds swirling violently around him. His **Bomb Power** crackled through his veins like an uncontainable storm. Every movement, every breath, every muscle flex sent tremors through the air, as if his very existence was **a walking explosion**.
His fists clenched. **He had mastered it.**
The memories of his **self-destruction** to defeat the last enemy still lingered in his mind. That ultimate **Over Big Bang Explosion**—a force beyond reality itself—had cost him his life. And yet, here he stood, resurrected, **reborn stronger than ever.**
X inhaled deeply, feeling the **detonating energy surging within his core**. His body was **a living bomb**, but instead of recklessly releasing his power, he had now achieved perfect **control**. His training was over. **The true test was about to begin.**

### **The Return of His Siblings and Fiancées**
A massive portal **ripped through the sky**, and from it, his **siblings and fiancées emerged**, their expressions **grave**. They had just returned from their investigation into the **true mastermind** behind the **2025 Incident**.
- **Lyz** stepped forward, her **wand glowing** ominously. "X… We found them."
- **Z's katana-scythe** gleamed, its edge reflecting a dark, unseen force. "This is worse than we thought."
- **May adjusted her crossbow**, her eyes filled with determination. "They've been watching us since the beginning."
- **Y tightened his grip on his shield.** "And they're waiting for us to come to them."
X's fiancées—**Chell, Rey, and Rin**—stood beside them, their expressions a mix of worry and anger.
- **Chell crossed her arms, her eternal fire burning brighter.** "You nearly died once. I won't let that happen again."
- **Rey's high-elf eyes narrowed.** "This enemy... they are beyond anything we've faced before."
- **Rin's animal-like ears twitched.** "So what? That just means we have to be even stronger."
X **grinned**, his blood burning with excitement. **"Who cares how strong they are? I just got a power-up. Time to test it out."**

### **The Test of a God: Bomb Martial Arts**
Before they could move, Lyz **raised a hand**, stopping X in his tracks.
- "You're strong, X. But raw power won't be enough this time."
X **smirked.** "Then I'll use more than just raw power."
He took a **fighting stance**, the ground beneath him **cracking** as his **Bomb Power fused with his Martial Arts**. The wind around him **shifted**, as if the very fabric of reality was preparing for impact.
**"Watch this."**
And then—**he moved.**
X launched forward with a simple **punch**, but the sheer **force** behind it created an **airburst explosion**, sending out **shockwaves** that **obliterated the sky**.
- **Step. BOOM.**
- **Kick. BOOM.**
- **Spin. BOOM.**
Every movement of his body **detonated the air**, creating **chain reactions of controlled destruction**. The very laws of physics **bent to his will**.
He executed a **devastating aerial kick**, sending an **explosive shockwave so powerful** that it **split the clouds apart**. The sheer **energy release** vaporized everything in a 10-kilometer radius.
As the dust settled, X **exhaled**, his **body perfectly unharmed.** He had **total control** over the destruction he unleashed.
Lyz, Z, May, Y, Chell, Rey, and Rin **watched in stunned silence.**
Finally, Lyz spoke. **"…You really are a monster."**
X **laughed.** "What, just realizing that now?"
Z shook his head. "No, she means… you're finally ready."

### **The War Begins – The Truth of the 2025 Incident**
Lyz's expression turned serious again. "We don't have much time. The enemy we found… is worse than even the Calamity."
Everyone **froze.**
- **Chell's flames flickered.** "Worse… than the Calamity? The one who almost erased everything?"
- **Rey clenched her fists.** "Then who is it?"
Lyz **looked at X.** "The one responsible for the 2025 Incident."
The **air grew heavy.** X's grin faded.
"Their identity… Their power… It's something that defies even the concept of existence itself."
X **cracked his knuckles, his explosive energy flaring.** "Then I guess we're gonna have to defy existence itself to stop them."
The battle **for the truth of 2025** had begun.
