Episode 9: Invasion
After the kidnapping incident, Mialethra was still a little annoyed at Aizakawa for letting her stay tied up until they reached her house.
Aizakawa pinched her cheek and smiled.
> "Why are you still pouting?"
Mialethra kept pouting.
> "It's nothing…"
Fortunately, Aizakawa knew how to cheer her up.
He bought her a strawberry-chocolate ice cream—her favorite.
Slowly, her mood began to soften, and she started enjoying the treat with a shy smile.
---
Meanwhile, somewhere in the shadows, Kagelapan was on the move.
He had set his sights on recruiting another dark force: Lord Soros, one of the most fearsome rulers in another universe.
When he arrived at Soros's kingdom, Kagelapan was stopped by palace guards.
But with a single wave of his scythe, he tore through them and entered the throne room.
He offered Lord Soros an alliance.
Soros refused and prepared to fight—until Kagelapan revealed the power of DoC cells.
Tempted by their strength, Lord Soros gave in.
His body was enhanced by DoC cells, making him stronger and more dangerous than ever.
Kagelapan gave the command:
> "Begin the invasion of Earth. Destroy Evros."

Back on Earth, Aizakawa and Mialethra were enjoying their ice cream in the park.
> Aizakawa: "Is your ice cream good?"
Mialethra: (still pouting, says nothing)
Suddenly, the sky darkened.
A massive fleet of alien ships descended over the city.
People screamed and fled in panic.
Aizakawa immediately called in his elite warriors:
Akazone: To protect Mialethra and the city.
Zans: To guard the oceans.
Kyou: To defend the mountains.
Aizakawa took off toward the enemy fleet.
> Mialethra: "Are you sure you can win against those aliens?"
Aizakawa (gently patting her head): "Don't worry. I will win."
---
Soros's forces attacked ruthlessly, leveling buildings and burning the skies.
Aizakawa infiltrated the flagship and came face-to-face with Lord Soros.
> Soros: "So you're Evros."
Aizakawa: "That's right."
Without warning, Soros stabbed Aizakawa in the side.
> Aizakawa: "He's strong… I need to use the World of Creation."
But when he tried to activate it—
> "Why… can't I use WOC?!"
His body locked up.
The weapon Soros used was coated with DoC poison, designed to seal the power of WOC!
---
The battle continued. Aizakawa fought back, but the poison spread quickly.
He coughed blood and staggered.
Meanwhile, Zans saved the coastline from a massive tsunami by summoning a bone wall the size of a mountain.
Out in deep space, Aizakawa and Soros clashed between stars.
Soros summoned two galaxies, slamming them at Aizakawa.
He barely held them back, but the galaxies shattered into dust.
Aizakawa's energy was nearly gone.
Finally, with a crushing blow, he was sent flying back to Earth, crashing hard.
---
Everyone saw it happen—Mialethra, Akazone, Zans, Kyou…
The strongest warrior had fallen.
Lord Soros descended from the sky, floating over the broken Aizakawa.
He remembered Kagelapan's final order:
> "If you can't kill Evros… then kill his lover instead."
Soros turned his blade toward Mialethra.
But Aizakawa appeared again—bloodied, broken, but alive.
He shielded Mialethra in a desperate embrace.
Soros plunged his sword into Aizakawa's heart.
> Soros: "Mission complete."
He returned to his ship.
Aizakawa collapsed in Mialethra's arms, whispering:
> "I love you…"
His breathing faded.
Mialethra and the others wept.
The elite guards rushed in, lifting Aizakawa's limp body.
They flew him to the nearest hospital, praying he would survive…
