Therefore Lang has to avoid both the falling trees and the bullets Game over : This is a two-faced result that is, either Lang gets tired and he is hit or he puts up with this situation up to the first half of the fifth minute and a tree falls on Gond who dispappears and the fake Nal also.

1- The genesis

Here is the kingdom of Veneans .A faraway kingdom on the faraway Redy planet where everything can reflect light . The landscapeis made up of dryhighlands and deep green seas . The soil is reddish and the weather is dry and hot . This kingdom 's outlay is a half circle for a large sea occupies almost half of its surface and the other half is covered with houses that are arranged in aconcave curve all alongthe boundaries.

The core of the kingdom is the palace of the king and his family on one handand on the other hand the nearby headquarter where the High priest and his family live. These abodes are huge buildings with horns at the roof s corners and with enormousgates that areoverly decorated with catlike figures . And just in front of the gates there are super-warriors guarding the premises.

Next to the luxurious dwellings there are soldiers s barracks that are built all around . They are in turn surrounded by the library and other main units. The remaining space is occupied by low-ranked individuals. The king is the greatest person in the area , followed by the High priest, then the army officers , the soldiers , the craft men and the technicians . The lowest of all these ranks are the heralds . Their work is to pass on information , ordersand instructions in –between the various ranks . Yet in among a rank , people can directly talk to one another .The various parts of the kingdomare well -secured . There are guards everywhere to ensurethere is no trouble in the kingdom.

Veneansmerely look like human beings at the exception thattheir skin complexionis either green or purple . They have a funny way to dress themselves .Their outfit reminds underwater uniform. Their attire is made up of metals such as electrum, polished iron , zinc and sometimes gold . All these oresare available in theirsoil and seas .

They live on craft as theyare skillfulcraft men .Eon-aged statues made from heated mud are widespread in the area. Veneans are also talented builders and renowned technicians of allexpertise.Some of their houses and buildings are multi-storey buildings though they are made from mud. Inside these houses walls are usually covered with zinc or any othermetal .Then any glance of light makes the scenery looks glaring .The funny thing in this kingdom is their mud-made housesare shuttle-like in shape .

These people are great inventors. They use little capsules as their transportation means.

Apart from the wind power , the magnetic energy that results from the differences in gravity readings is anotherenergy source that fuels their living .Veneans pick the magnetic energy right from the interior of their ground.

In this animal- free area these geniuses have devised vegetation to their liking and they are able to manufacture machines that can copyterrestrial animals such as ancient elephants,bulls,sharks , alligators,rhinos and the like . Any material could be used as foodstuff ..dust, mud or foodstuff manufactured in their laboratories.

At Veneans` there are neither children nor babes . Venean families are made up of fellows with like- manners and equal power .Thus there are families of smiling mates and also families of serious guys. There are families of greedy people and also families of dirty folk. There are ungrateful Veneans yet one can encounter lovable guys as well. It is impossible to find a family with members of various behaviors .

These people are genderless .There is no dad , no mum. Their population grows thanks totheirability todivide themselves so as to produce a new adult person . They called that process the veneoning. Yet this process is ruled by the unmovable laws of demand and space. Thus if a Venean wants to go on veneoning , he must make sure there is a room and an occupation for the newcomer . Therefore eachVenean has a place to live and a particular work to do.

Though they are not equal in strength , nor in power and wisdom, theytrain themselves to attain the state of Universalis . It is the state of completeness of power and the plenty of wisdom. Those folk who have attained such a level must have achieved many breakthroughs in the land. They must have impacted on the life of their fellowmen.

Each occupational groupbarters his services with one another. There is no money here.When an engineer needs an art workhe then devises an apparatus for the craft man or he offers to do some repairing work for him. Veneans are very interconnected people. They are used to have great time .

One day their king , king Lyo felt old for the throne . He was only seven centuries old. This green chubby man planned to retire from the kingship so that he could become a beam of light .He shall then cross the galaxy and export the civilization of his dear homeland all over the universe .Currently no Venean better him could achieve that commission. He was among the fellows who had discovered the magnetic fuel.

By the time he was produced, some centuries ago , people set fire from hard dry muddy pieces that they rubbed ones against the others . Then they further burnt pieces of dried clayin this fire so as to make fuel for their machines and engines. The technique was so difficultand bothering .Other times they used some charcoal-like stuff to kindle fire . This method was so dirty and repulsive .Yet Veneans put up with these methods till the

In the mean time King Lyo is very proud of himself . He achieved awful goals and ideas keep on still sprouting in his mind .His hands are itching in the haste of manufacturing something. The kingship has thus become cumbersome to him. He couldn`t invent things any longer .His freedom has been hampered for centuries. Sometimes his joy also .Once in his life he envied the kingship but now he realized it is illusionnary . He is fed up of dragging around servants and advisors even when he is in want of loneliness .He is tired of holding lengthy meetings with those dull blokes who confuse his ears with a lot of twittering .So he decided to inform his servants about his future retirement and asked them :

-<<Who am I going to crown?>> .The servants looked surprised for king Lyo sat on the throne only for some centuries whereas kings before him ruled over the area for millennia till their Universalis . Nonetheless they showed compliance :

-<<Your Highness , his servants said,Veneans are all brave and courageous folks . You shall organize a contest and the winner will sit on your throne in your place .>>

-<<Hurry up, you men ! Have no delay in the preparation for that contest. >>

2-Anempathic guy

The royal servants patrolled around the country looking for fellows who are fitted for the contest . Candidates should be willing to learn . They should be sporty and hard-working. They had to pass a balance-test by standing up on one foot for three hours with their hands stretched while they are smiling .No-smiling families had ithot to comply with this requirement. They also had to pass an endurance-test by rekindling fire on wood logs only with their breathing .Then those who have been admitted into the contest followed a strained training for a year period in the training center that was in the neighborhood of the palace . The center was a steel flat withdormitories and other rooms where the contestants could learn and socialize .

The contestants stayed in dormitories that were prepared for them. These were storey-buildings with many floors made of steel and glasses Each contestant has a room for himself with a bed , a table and a toilet . A dining hall could welcome the competitorsat meals` times . Fitness rooms were available for body training and the guys could relax onplay grounds and in game rooms . The game rooms were rooms equipped with toys of all kinds and with playful devices . All these apparatus were aimed at teaching the participants the values ofthe kingship.

The schedule was the same every day: As soon as they got up from bed , trainees had to perform difficult physical exercises such as dangerous jumps and pushups movements .Then they met the gurus in the classrooms where they were asked to sit on the ground cross-legged for there were no benches , no chairs and no tables .The gurus taught them the science that help control their mind and their body in such a way they could command obedience only by thinking. They called that technique, the technique of psyche. In these classes it was forbidden to the trainees to talk with their counterparts . The only discussion a student could have must be with the guru.They were requested to close their eyes and to focus on the scheme their energy follows right inside their body .Afterwards they are taught the history of their homeland and the kinship` s rules.

Some weeks later tournaments were held. Yet prior tothe kickoff of the competition each contestant had to chose the symbol of his line of thinking . It is the gist that a competitor has to display all along the competition and sometimes for the rest of his life if he wants to.When a bloke was defeated twice he was outrightly eliminated from the contest and he must pack home.

The participants wore the mask and the outfit of their choice . Masks were different in varieties for they looked like animals or machines . They were tuned to the gist of the contestants . Their outfit was elastic garments just like scuba divers` own .Some folk opted for very colorful attire and some others chose to wear wings like birds or insects.

Two trainees stood out from their fellows : the owner of the bull - shaped mask ,Lang was his name and Gond ,the owner of the rhinos-shaped mask . Both won their first three tournaments without having being defeatedeven once .They scored a draw in a wrestle that opposed them to eachother .

As regard Gondhe was a strong folk with a purple complexion who belonged to the venean family of serious guys . He was a mechanic . He loved building and fixing engines, turbines and the like . His veneer or the person who produced him forth was a joint inventor of the Veneans` capsules .Gond was very inquisitiveand hard-working . When the royal servants were recruiting contestants , they met him in an ore pit testinga turbine he just made . The noise of the exploding device drew the attention of the patrollers who hurried to give him a helpinghand . Yet luckily he was safe and unharmed .

Since the day he entered the competition , Gond became grouchy . He was always complaining about everything –the size of his bed that was too small for him ,his fellow contestants who were unfitted for the competition and even the gurus who were not qualified enough to care for him.

Yet the guy quickly grasped the lessons that were taught .He trained very hard to master his body .He found out that he could have some parts of his body vegetate with no harm for the other parts . His next goal was to successfully use that trick ontosomebody else especially his comrades.

His choice of the rhinoceros gistandmask didn`t look odd to nobody .The outfit he wore was black and hairy from his ankles up to his neck whereas his feet were yellow- clothed . Wings of a big bird hung at his back . He could spread them widely and some other times he couldfoldthem. He then had the advantage that he could move byflying , running and by walking.

On the other handLang originated with the family of questioning minds .He was a craft man and loved to make beautiful things .The best works of arts he was mostly proud of are his carvings . He carved from any material be it stone, wood ,metals and even clayed mud .

One day he decided to make a carving of king Lyo from hardenedglass. He intended to exhibitthe art work at the upcoming trade fair .Then he gathered the components he needed and in an overly heated hearth he hardened the glassy paste meanwhile he was giving itthe shape of a person . Just as he was setting up the statue on his workshop`s table the recruiters came inand they wondered about the work .

Lang was very friendly . Upon arriving in the training centerhe socialized with his fellow contestants . He invited some of them in his room and showed them some of his paintings, drawings and minute statues. He went on and offered to paint his defeated comrades as souvenirs of the contest . He endeavored to entertain his companions and teachers.

Despite such a relaxing attitude Lang was focused on the contest .He used to carry chunks ofheavy materialsin his family` s workshop ,then he was strong and well-built . He loved the physical training yet he best felt at ease in the library where he could nose about the underlying truths of his homeland .

The mask he opted for was that of a bull .The attire he wore was all green-coloredwith slight traces of dark green at the feet and at the hands . Two wings of a beetle insect were stuck on his back .

By a calm morning , on his way to thelibraryLang caught two guards of the gate who were talking about a plot against the king as they were going home after their duty .He strained his ears and followed their conversation.

-<<The Lord of the headquarter is resentful with the king.>> The first guard whispered .

-<<Why?>>,the second one asked.

-<<Maybe the contest His Highness has organized is not of his liking>>.

-<<He is certainly not involved in the business >> the second guard assumes as he peered around him. He didn`t see Lang who hid behind a luxuriousgrove.

-<<I surprised him having some soldiers to burry downsmall heavy boxes in the Palace's garden . The first guard continued saying, He looked so suspect I sensed he's making some unpleasant thing up. >>

-<<What shall we then do?>>

-<<We shall keep the secret and let the sacred book decide for the king's fate. Anyway we are mere soldiers .Let each rank mind his own business.>>And looking around he continued saying : I hope nobody is following our discussion.

- <<Hmm!?>> . They didn`t know the green –complexioned Lang followed their discussion. Were they aware of that , then Lang would have been in great trouble. The first guard proceeded to talk :

-<<The sacred book is the corner stone of our kingdom. The owner of the shining black box where this books is hidden becomes the new king .>>

Upon hearing that Lang's heart started drumming in his chest and he swiftly departed from his hiding place and went home .The following day ,once in the library Lang was busy reading he didn't noticed Gond was nearing him. The rhinos-like fighter peered over Lang's shoulder.

-<<You are reading material about the crowning ceremony... Let me remind you I am the one to have won most of the tournaments , The throne is mine.>>

-<<If you don't want to join me in the reading I will ask you to leave me alone.>>Lang empathically tossed at him . Gond drew close to himand asked :

-<< What 's the matter ? >>------(koob drecas fo ecalp gnidiheht)Clue 1: remember the guards'discussion

<<- This book I am reading elaborates the lessons we learnt in this morning classes .>>Lang heartedly told him .

Gond faked he couldn't understand what he read while Lang endeavored to help him . Finallythe rhinos acknowledged :

-<<It's Ok. I have better things to do .>>In his room Gond decided to inquire about the Crowning ceremony as well.-<<Some details might be relevant.>>

On his side Lang wondered-<<Where is the Sacred Book lying? No book unveils the answer . The guards talked about a shining black box. Where is it then?! I must find where the box is hidden .>>

Meanwhile at the royal palace king Lyo inquired about the final day of the competition.

-<<Your Highness ,his servants said , the traineesare not readyyet . We need an extra period of three months .>>

-<<No way ! the king shouted ,I will add only a month period. Afterwards the Crowning Ceremony will take place.>>

-<<As your Highness will.>>

Shortly afterKaba, the Lord of the headquarter approached the king .He was a short bald guy with long ears and severe traits. In addition his purple complexion made him look so awful: -<<your Highness , everything will be put in place for the ceremony . However the Sacred Bookis still to be found.>>

-<<Lord of the headquarter , have no worry about that. Any other question?>>

-<<Things are moving smoothly ,your Highness . >>

Upon these words Kaba bowed and withdrew from before the king.-<<Keep on hiding this book, Lyo .I shall take back the throne.>> The High priest murmured as he rememberedsome centuries ago when he also was competing to become a king . The crown slipped through his fingers and the choice was laid upon Lyo . Unrightfully . An injustice. He has been patiently waiting for the best time to claim the throne .- I think now is the right the time, he said.

Kaba called on the director of the training center.-<<Captain Hoh ,the finale is now scheduled for the upcoming month .>>

-<<I was informed about that day , my lord>>

-<<No mistake will be tolerated, you know .Send meyour best trainees for a test .>>

An hour later Gond, Kiboh , Lang and Nal were brought to the lord of the headquarter . These guys were the pets of the Captain.

-<< It seems you are the prospective leaders of our noble kingdom ,Kaba started. The time is on to get use to the does and dontsofthe rulership . Therefore you will first explain the significance of each step of the ceremony . Your interest in the ceremony is an evidence of your genuine will to take care of our people .Then you will find out where each of the emblems is kept. You have three days to bring me the results. Remember the earlier is the better . Good luck .>>Then Kaba turned his heels and left the students in the hall.

Later on the four soldiers met in the courtyard of the lord's palace . -<<Only one person in among us will become the king . How does it come that the lord of headquarter said" you are the prospective leaders of this kingdom "?>> Lang silently thought.

-<<Why do I have to work with them while I am the outsider? >>Gond wondered. These guysmay cheat me.

-<<Gond and Lang are better than me .Why should I care about working for them?Kiboh pondered. Let them manage by themselves.>>. Kiboh was a tall greenbloke with a hawk mask .He was smart and secretive.

-<<This is an outlet to secure a place beside the future king ! Nal noticed . I can`t miss such a chance.>>Nal was a chubby purple guy with a turtle mask . He was very lovingly.

-<<Hey, guys ! Gondstated , how arewe going to handle thesetasks?>> His fellows shrouded at him .-<<I saw Lang entering the library. He might help solve the first problem.>>

-<< It's a team work, Lang opposed him . Let's go together to the library.>>

-<< Is that necessary ?>> Kiboh protested for he has always beenreluctant to research work in the library.

-<<You can still make a suggestion if you have any. >> Nal advised him. Theyaltogether went to the library .Once there they flicked throughnumerous books . Yet Kiboh hid in his outfit a book he collected from a shelf .

At home he discovered the various symbols of thekingship: the royal rod, the crown ,the dark mantle and the sacred book. All of which are supposed to be held by the king on seat .Yet exceptionally the book alone shall be entrustedto the care of the High-priest, lord of the headquarter with the king`s consent. Later on in that night Kiboh secretly went to Kaba's residence and explained everything he had learnt.

-<<That was true , Kaba sadly acknowledged, until the day when the king removed them from here. Nobody knows why . I was entrusted to look overthe sacred book in exchange of the kingship that was denied to me . By the time I competed with the lord who is now the actual king of our homeland , we all scored a draw .YetIwas not the pet of the then ruling king and I was stolen the throne . Once on seat the king changed everything, the regulations and some customs>> .

The High priest s face has never been so colorless as if tears were about to run down on his cheeks .He thought he deserved the throne . Did he not struggle for that/ But he was disappointed

-<< Since I am the first to come and inform you .What will be my reward? >> Kiboh asked him as he disturbed the High-priest in his thoughts and meditation. The High-priest paused and he smilingly promised him:

-<<I will make you a royal investigator and once you bring back the book ,we 'll proceed to your crowning .This is our secret , I hope you grasp what I mean .>>

Kiboh nodded at him and left joyously the lord's abode . Yet he was not aware that Gond spied him as he commuted to Kaba's house: -<<Something is brewing up . Gond thought , Let me look at it more closely. >> Upon these words he shadowed Kiboh and saw the book he had hidden from them . He also took it with him and hid it.

The next day Kiboh was absent at the meeting, he said he has some stretching exercises to complete .In the course of that meeting Gond went out and checked what Kiboh was actually doing. He surprised him discussing with an iron- masked man behind a big statue in the neighborhood of the center. They looked overly cautious it was clear something was wrong. They arranged for an appointment ata place Gond well knew .

At the appointed time Kiboh met the same masked man at a corner of the royal garden. Then stretching to the student a wooden box, the masked man stated/ -<<Take this rod and hide it; he then proceeded to say . By tomorrow I will declare the rod has disappeared. The king will be forced to set an inquiry .We will then seize that opportunity to scan the palace and gather all the emblems altogether in the same place. Remember you are in-charge of a sacred commission. Take care.!>>Afterwards they left each other .

The masked man hid in a grove near the High-priest's dwelling .He was about to change his garments when at that very time he heard a whistle. He turned his head aside but out of sudden aviscousmaterial like an algae covered his head and he fainted. Huge chains were tied all over his body and he was carried away by an unknown power.

Days passed on and the High-priest, lord of the headquarter could not be found. The king had an investigation open up and his soldiers discovered the royal rod was missing as well.

-<<What a strange coincidence!>> The king noticed

Meanwhile Gond entered Kiboh's room and dropped his heavy load behind the door .

-<<Let me see who is hiding behind this mask he said as he put off the mask … the lord of the headquarter !!! >> He placed back the maskon his face and started seeking the rod. With no success.

On his sideKiboh was puzzling about the announcement of lord Kaba's missing . The High-priests was the one who fixed the project . He knew far better than him its various steps . Without him he felt helpless and decided to quit his dream about sitting one day on the throne. He thenthrew off the rod in a hole and went back to his room.

Wasting no time the king's soldiers screened the kingdom and finally they entered the training center . They walked in the dormitories and checked one room after the other . They finallyarrived at Kiboh' s room.

-<<En-en-ter, Kiboh uttered in a quivering voice. He looked so frightened his hands were shivering. The rangers scanned his room a first time, then a second one . As he approached a statue a ranger noticed the weird position of his hands. He touched it but that statue fell down . He tried to lift it up yet the cloth the statue was wrapped in tore apart. And the attire of lord Kaba then came up .

-<<Come and see ,guys !>> the soldier said to his fellows . Kiboh was arrested and locked up into an abyss .Nobody never knew he was innocent about that matter . Fortunately for lord Kaba he was still alive though he was unconscious. His whole body was as if it were paralyzed .It was involved in a vegetating state .

At the other corner of the kingdomGond noticed the ring he had dragged out from the finger of the masked lord Kaba started sending some beep sounds on a particular bearing. He headed for that direction .The beep sound becomes sharper and it stopped as he stepped onto a spot.

-<<What does that mean?>>(dnuora si melbme dercas a) Clue2 : remember the second fold of the commission the fighters were entrusted with .

He wondered . Then using his radar sense he spotted out a stick in a crack .Then by using his psyche he had the stickcome up onto the ground . It was the royal rod sending forth light around the whole place. He hid it in another place and he scrutinized the finger ring again .-<<Henceforth this ring will only obey to me. >> he decided .

The news about Kiboh's arrest disturbed most of his former comrades. -<<That's very unusual ,Lang noted, lord Kaba was assaulted by Kiboh and the royal rod is missing ...Maybe Kiboh stole the rod and attacked the lord to veil his action.>> He was crossing a corridor of the dormitory when he encountered Gond . The guy passed by without taking notice of him .

-<<His eyes are now sending forth light :he didn't look like this before.>> Lang observed. He joyously inquired :<< Hey , Gond , is everything ok ? >> Yet the guy drew him away.

In the royal palace . King Lyo got anxious and annoyed : -<<I can sense a strange power in the kingdom>> ,he announced to his servants.

-<<Maybe it's lord Kabawho is recovering >>,they replied him

-<<No, it's a new power and it's awesome .Perhaps some enemies have entered our kingdom and they are preparing a coup.>> He then called his commander and assessed his weapons.-<<My goodness, where are the boxes of exploders ?! (ecalap s'nedrag ni) .Clue3:recall the guards' discussion.

The king said all-astounded. Set up an investigation out rightly! Hurry up />> The king was shocked as if he was threatened by some evil.

Surveys were carried out in among the soldiers and the faulty ones were caught .They reported lord Kaba's plot against the king as he intended to blast off the king's palace.

-<<So , the king innerly thought , the guy didn`t forget about the kingship . I was then right to remove the sacred book from under his care . All the privilegesIgave him, were not enough for him .He still held to his gist of supremacy . Well …>> and King Lyo had lord Kaba locked into the abyss too. Another senior officer was appointed as High-priest for an interim until the crowning of the new king.

After these events the boxes of exploders were transferred to their usual place in the soldiers ` s barracks. Coincidentally the contestants 's trainer along with Lang and Nal were strolling along the road beside the casern . When they saw the soldiers hauling the boxes, they offered to help them . Everybody was busy working when the trainees sighted a soldier who wassidetracking with a box in his hands . They both agreed to check what was wrong and they unnoticeably followed him .

Suddenly the soldier halted. He sensed he was shadowed . He then turned about and faced his followers. He cast a hook onto them and the weapon nailed Nal's foot .The box the soldier held dropped onto the ground . Nal intended to lay his hands on it butthe soldier knocked at his head and he fainted. Then a stiff wrestling sparkled out between the soldier and Lang who stepped forward to rescue Nal .The trainee prevailed over the soldier and he fled away . Lang took the box ; it was not as heavy as those he earlier carried on . He opened it and discovered there was another box inside , this time around this box was a shining one.

-<<Let it be the box of the Sacred Book!!>> He uncovered that box and gazed at a radiant golden book, the Sacred Book.

He then heard Nal who was groaning with pain .He brought him home. Lang told Nal nothing about his discovering the book, he kept it secret. After allthey both were involved in a contest.

At the palace :the soldier Lang beat up announced /<<-Your Highness ,I beg your mercy. I was assaulted by two soldiers who stole the marked box.>>

-<<One more woe !The king screamed. How does it come that a learner can prevail over you ?!You were not cautious enough. Go back to your barrack.He paused . Later on he proceeded to say: what if a second power comes into play !..>> The defeated soldier understood nothing about the king `s wish .

In the dormitory Lang was overwhelmed with his meditation. Some hours ago he had flicked through the precious book and read it to its finish. That book is a gathering of dried animals` skin patches of equal size, that are sewn one to the others with a golden thread .A golden ink was used to lay the writings on these patches .The book looks very old yet it is still stronger. Reading the books entails some requirements: Any reader of the book has to do it in a quiet place and in an undertone for the book accomplishes every statement that is voiced .Besides the reader has to seat cross-legged right on the ground .

Lang didn`t grasped most of the magical statements that were written in the book .Many parts of the book were unintelligible to him . He realized he needed to be coached so as to use the book more efficiently. But he decided to keep the book and to read it as often as possible .Handing the book to his trainer or somebody else might be a drawback to his seating on the throne. -Who does ever know ?

Meanwhile in the playground a fight broke out between Gond and another trainee on the account of a dish that the other trainee had mistakenly eaten some time ago in the dining hall . Gond was stronger than the guy and he beat him up. A third guy joined the wrestling and yelled at him:

-<<Why are you bullying that comrade , Gond? That's not fair!>>Yet Gond too tamed him .Soon after many guys entered the fight. Most of them opposed Gond and his followers.

A short while later Lang was passing his way and he was drifted to the playground by the turmoil of the fight. He was shocked as he saw Gond standing up upon the nape of those guys he had defeated .

-<<Enough is enough, Gond>> ,he shouted

-<<Who's talking?>< Gond asked him . It `s you again / I can`t remember you `re assigned to look over something or somebody here. I wish you mind your own business otherwise…He didn`t finish talking that Lang leaped from the doorway where he stood up and hit Gond off like a gale. Gond later on stood up painfully and cursed him. -<<I`ll do you, Lang! >>he said as he left the premises with his supporters at his back.

That evening Lang gathered the bullied comrades in his room and they altogether agreed to form a fellowship with him as their head. The following day a fellow of Lang was preparing for a tutorial in a fitness room when Gond's friendsattacked him .They left him seriouslyinjured. On the account of that assault his fellows decided to revenge him,. They found those folk in the dining hall. A serious fight broke out between the two camps.

Fortunately a king's servant was alerted , then the fighters and their respective leaders were summoned at the palace .Right away Lang and Gond drew to themselves the attention of the king and his royal court.

-<<That guy 's eyes are sending forth light and as regards the other one there is a circle shining over his head.>> The king noticed and he whispered a word to his counselor.

-<<They might have certainly been in touch with the emblems . A servant said, maybe this is the sign we've been waiting for. Let them compete with each other .They may be the strongest of our trainees and obviously the winner is going to sit on the throne in your place .>>

Then addressing to Lang and Gond the king said :- <<What are your names , brave men ?>>Upon receiving the answers he proceeded to declare :-<< It is obvious both of you are the heads of your respective packs .Moreover you men are involved in a leadership contest for the kingship. Then it is decided you are going to be your own judges .You can not quit anymore .That is why we won`t wait for the finale`s day .The king broke. He then went onsaying : I declare the finale open right now and let the best man of you win ! >>

Lang and Gond `s followersdidn`t get what the king meantand they puzzled about that . Their respective followers were sent out of the hall . So a whirlwind arose and both leaders were drawn in the soldiers 'barracks. Once they reached the place soldiers associated with each of them and they formed two rival camps: the Kelites were under the leadership of Lang and the Natites had Gond as their head . Both camps took their capsules and they all flew at the borders of the kingdom where there was few housing .The Kelites were the first camp to land and they set their camp . Then the Natites too arrived. They found the Kelites had occupied the best spots .A quarrel started between the soldiers about the space to land. Theirheads remained silent about that matter looking for the appropriate way to attack. Each camp showed off its destructive arsenal in an awful display so as to impress the other .Then a war broke out at the kingdom's edges.

3-THEAPPOINTMENT

It merely took a blink of the eye and the outer space blazed out with the weapons 's fire of the fighters .The noise the shootings made was so horrible people hid into the basement oftheir homes .Careless blokes out of curiousity were blown off by the blasts .Unhidden shuttles and other devices were dragged off by force and used to complete the war craft. It was the first great war Veneans had ever witnessed .

Previous contests for the kingship didn`t foster a war .The winnerusually unparalleledits mates. Naturally once he sat on the throne ,the winner of the contest appointed his former comrades as senior officers and he gave them high rank in the kingdom. That has been the case with king Lyo and his counterparts before him. Yet this time around things are quite different.

Sulfur and fire were storming all around the place .Dust filled out the air that became very hot and scorching for the eyes and skin. The battle was stiff . Both commanders polished their strategies. They first battled in a direct war with their equipments .But no camp prevailed over the other. Then they launched the ground battle that waged a heavy toll on their camps. Many soldiers were severely wounded and some others were disintegrated. Fire was burning everywhere .

The Natites sent bombing drones against the Kelites camps but they got dismantled as they enter their magnetic field .Venean drones were intelligent devices that can fly . In turn the Kelites 'missiles were destroyed by the flames of the Natites ' arsenals . Both camps recorded enormous losses .

The warriors then got involved into closed wrestling using the martial arts and techniques proper to their civilization. Venean soldiers were trained with a lot of seriousness and discipline .They all were tough blokes. Such a training might be helpful in a possible time of insecurity.

As in time of war when all tricks are allowed ,the treacherous Natites who were stirred up by their commander , claimed a truce yet they seized that occasionand pressured up their unaware adversaries into a hot spot where the gravity enhances the disintegration of any material.

On the other hand the Kelites , in a last attempt to resist their enemies ,intermingled their legs and handsso as to form a moving wall. Abeam of light sparkled out from amid them as they lined up along the gravity spot .The Natites got blinded by such apower . And the Kelites pushed them off in the outer space where they just scattered like a broken vase.

Fortunately for them Gond ,the Natites 'commander appeared with their Natel , a shark-like vessel. He picked his soldiers up and the door was shut. Right inside the vessel the Natites were clustered into compartments .There was no noise until thecommander's voice broke the silence off.

-<<Today's battle was a mess .But we'll get our revenge , guys .Get ready for in a couple of hours the training will resume.>>

By the time Gond uttered these words their radar indicated a new wavelength was coming in .The device captured it and the voice of the Kelites ' chief became clearer:

-<< I hope you people got the lesson .>>

-<<You fools , Gond shouted , I 'll do you>>

-<< I thought you 'll shut up your mouthafter your defeat of today .>>

-<< I 'll never acknowledge this defeat . You were merely lucky thatis all, but for sure the final victory will be mine.>>

-<< I regret,you 're so a stubborn bloke .What about takingan appointment in the Andricus plateau for tomorrow where we will set things straight between you and meonly / Let these guys not suffer anymore under your foolishness.

-<<I'm Ok with the appointment but I will make you swallow your tongue .>>

At the palace the king and his court were watching the war from some sophisticated devices and they were astounded to hear the two leaders making an appointment to compete with each other without their soldiers.

-<<I think ,the king said , these guys have private matters to settle .Such arrangement has never been made before. The warriors are very special . He then asked . MayIhave some details about their families and their life ? They seemed very interesting .>>

- <<Maybe it is the best way to alleviate the losses they both recorded . A counselorsuggested . After all that appointment will spare their soldiers` lives and our weapons .>>

-<<Let` s wait and see >>, the king hopefullyconcluded .

4-Unveilling the mistakenidentity

The two warriors met at the Andricus plateau .This dry highland recalled ghost sceneries .There were no sign of life . Only stones and caverns .Losses could be minute in case of massive bombing. Both fighters arrived at the same time. Gond chose a nearby valley .He could easily hide from his adversary `s attacks .ButLang with the sacred book in his outfit stood on a gravity spot in the empty space .Then a silence. An hour passed away .Then a second hour. There was no breathing. Even the wind was calm.

Finally with his bull-like power Lang uprooted thehill beside Gond. He then flung it away into the empty space where it disintegrated into a meteoritic dust .

Yet Gond sneered as if he was watching a play :-<< I couldn't imagine you're so silly. I 'd love watching a dancing show .I can't be impressed by such a rubbish. >>

-<< I owe the Sacred Book my powers, Lang stated and I have access to this place's gravity reading .Then he added : <<By the

Sacredness , come up !>>

The soil quivered , it cracked outup, then waters invaded the valley where Gond was sitten.

-<<Upnext ?!>> voiced the rhinoceros-like creature as he vanished off.

Lang looked around the place searching for himbut he couldn`t seeGond .Till the time when he felt a breathing in his back . But before he could make a movement he wasviolently kicked away and his body struck down a nearby hill .

-<<That's how super warriors play ,man,Gond commented .I rightly suspected you had collected the Sacred Book yet let me tell you , you're a cheater and cheaters are no part of our kingdom.>>

Upon sayingthis he grasped Lang by his nape and cast him into the sea 'sbearing .A minute passed and there was no motion . Gond thought he `s done with the bull . Yet a short while later Lang jumped out from the water and landed at some distance in front Gond , refreshed and stronger.

-<<I'm still alive, guy !>> Lang mocked him. You must be stronger than what youactually are to expect to strike me down.

-<<You'remanaging it well , Gond conceded to him yet that was only the appetizer . I will make you eat the complete menu .>>Gondtossed at the bull some sliding material in order to paralyze him. But with his wings Lang covered his body and he came out safe .The bull then hid behind a boulderjust the little time that was needed for his wings to get dry again.

Thereafter he came out from the hiding place and blew off that boulder . With the dust that was yielded he shot the rhino at his face .Yet the guy swiftly avoided it .

Upon watching the warriors ,king Lyo admired the fighting techniques and skills of Gond. -<<This guy is a tough guy !>> he said, he is actually a warrior. >>He thereafter listened as an herald started reading reports about the fighters` lives at the center and about their families.

As for Lang he hurled into Gond yet this guy dodged aside again andthe guy fell on the ground so heavily it cracked out up.

-<<Here is the main dish , >> Gond uttered and he knocked the fallen warrior on his back. Lang felt dizzy and weaker .Just as if he were voided off from any energy. He feared it was the last minute of his life yet he prepared to fight and he will fight with acold head. Luckily he recalled a secret word he learnt from the Sacred Book and pronounced it . His memory came back and his power was multiplied by ten times. He rose up and pounded Gond with punches. The fight lasted for hours with no one prevailing over the other .

At the palace , king Lyo said :–<<These fighters are actually the best of their batch and maybe the best fighters we ever met .He then added : There are only two days left before the end of the contest . What if the battle ends with a draw ?>>(laque no eb ot) Clue 4 : recall the time when Lang quoted the sacred word .

His counselors replied: -<< Let it be no truce anymore . The first person to fall on the ground or to change his state will loose the contest .>>At the same time an officer brought before the king the carving Lang had made of him. The whole court admired the statue .And the king as well .

In the mean time an herald was sent to announce the cancel off of further truce periods to the warriors when they were having a break and the fight resumed .

-<<The time is on for me to make use of the royal rod . Gond said .He then had the rod appear in his stretched arms using his psyche power .>>.

Gond loved the rod .It was the key to his success . He looked at it with delightful eyes. He then held it strong and laughed loudly ,so loudly that the space immediately turned stark black . Dreadtful lightning flashed the sky and deafening thunders rolled all over the place. On seeing thatLang paused . He recalled the sacred words in connection to the handling of the royal rod : the mastery of the gravity . Yet he didn`t understand what the technique entails , nor did he know how to applythat technique.

As for Gond he had the rod twirling around him anda burst of light hurtled onto Lang. He jumped aside and escaped the bullet. The radiation burnt up the chunk where the bull was standing up and the wind carried the smoke away . Lang hid behind a pillar that quickly missed to crush him down .

-<<The guy is pretty powerful by now . He doesn't need to move himself any longer .Land pondered .He is fighting me with his psyche .I must do something . Otherwise he is going to kill me . As he was deeply involved in his thinking , then he saw Nal , his best friend nearing him .

-<< The place is so dangerous, Nal . What are you doing here? Lang asked him . >> If it is to help me , then you better go home Yet Nal didn't obey him . Instead he stood beside the bull and smiled to him wordlessly.

Quick, the bull remembered he could change the scenery into a forest scenery . The rhino found he was now in the bush , a sharp different place indeed . Langrushed towards him . He wanted to freeze off the rhino `s power . On the other hand in order to protect himself Gond by his psyche, had some trees chopped down and had them fallen onto the bull .Fortunately the bull dodged the first tree , then the second one but the third treebrushed against his foot . Nonetheless at the same time he leapt over that logand some other falling ones one after the other while he was wildly chasing after Gond. Then… nothing . No trees falling anymore . No leaves switching in the air .No rhino.

-<<Where`re you, you coward ? >>, the bull said . But where is Nal also ?! Yet as an answer the scenery was changed back to the dry plateau.

-<< You couldn`t imagine I could discover the secret of sceneries , Gond quarreled him. Let me tell you /being a warrior like me does not only involve holding the rod .. It is also a matter of brain and I am sorry to notice yours is very tiny. Where is your "best friend"? He was a mere illusion . He has never stepped his feet here . You see I have the power to create pictures that can move .You have no chance to win. Acknowledge your defeat and surrender >>.He then kicked the bull who disappearedin the wind .

Thereafter another whirlwind arose up and Gond was taken right up intospace .The windrocked him here and there and the rhino was unable to make any movement .Then it stopped . The rhino felt he was hung on some invisible peg . A wing of his attire got broken. Gondwas breathless .At that time he saw Lang standing on a small cloud.Alluding to the whirlwind coup he just made ,the bull uttered - <<You couldn`t forsee that, could you ? I am still having many tricks up in my sleeve . I give you a short time to take back your breath unless you want to abandon the fight.>>

Gond didn`t answer him .He whistled atLangand the cloud where the bull was standing up began to melt into water. Bothfighters were suspended in the air . They started punching again each against the other in the emptiness .Finally the rhino called Fon the rod and a heavy hail stroke the bull who fell into the underlying sea .

5-Down the rabbit hole

Just after Lang dived into the sea Gond decided to follow hin under the waters: -<<I won`t let him retrieve hispowerslike the first time . >>Gond thought as he remembered the bull is holding the sacred book . In order to prevent him from using the book ,he too plunged right away into the waters

The sea got swollen and a huge wave rosehigh up in the air . It then broke frightfully on the shore . The water became restless as the warriors were knocking each other .Fighting under the waters hasalways been a shortcoming of Lang. He found it difficult to breath and to keep his balance under the sea while he had to break his adversary' s punches. Gond intended to have the bull sunk for he well knew his flaw .He increased the punches downward so that Lang would be stuck : he could not dare to move downward otherwise he will choke , neither couldn'the ve upwards where the fight was dead stiff.

Finally Gond tore his broken wing and threw it at Lang`s eyes yet the bull held it and scattered the thing into pieces . The bull then took a heavy breath.It was his last chance to free from the rhino's grip. His chest got swollen.His skin turned black. The surface of the water started to boil up .As in a last effort Lang blew at the rhinoandGond got choked up as if strong hands were strangling him down . Quick, he went out from under the sea .He needed to breath some fresh air .Thereafter he stood up on the nearbycliff of the plateau that overhungthe green sea .

Lang too popped out from under the sea and after a slight breath heleapedright onto Gondwho was waiting for him. Their powers clashed as into a high voltagedischarge . The cliff broke away from the plateau and plunged into the sea .

-<<This guy is going to make me wreck down the whole land , Lang noticed . I must find a trick for him. >>Then the bull faded off .

-<<Where are you fleeing to , you fool ? (evac eht ni ) Clue 5 : recall the ongoing subtitle . The rhino uttered . You `re funny . Wherever you hide I am going to pick you up from there >>.

The rhinoput on his radar sense . But there was no Lang . He sent the echo sounder yet no sign of the bull was captured. Then Gond decided to destroy the whole place .

- <<I will force him to show up his crooked face >>,Gond murmured.

Thenin his quest ofhis opponent the rhino-like warrior started bombing everything he encountered . Mountains went on into smoke . The ground split away into tiny cracks .Dust rose up into the air and structures melted as if they were mere butter . And the air got overly heated. But there was still no Lang .

6- the birth of a hope

At the palace , the king remarked : - <<I am really impressed by the rhino though he might demolish the whole scenery. The contest does not involvedall that mess... The guy is not loyal at all . >>

-<<He is very tricky but he doesn`t know how to control his powers ,his advisors agreed , on the other hand the bull is not all that experienced mate.>>

-<<Both warriors have stolen the emblems , the king continued to say and they were not trained on how to handle them aright .But on the account of the mental attitude of each of them , we rather help the bull for he is a principledperson.>>

- <<What should we do then ?>> the counselors asked the king

King Lyo remembered his own story : the day he made his first inventionand his crowning : that was the day when Lyo noticed many places had different gravity readings .The greaterthe gravity difference , the strongerthe magnetic force in-between these places .He then devised an apparatus that can convert that magnetic force into magnetic fuel. It was a revolution , a boom, a break with the past and a step ahead in the future. Yes , it was the greatest day king Lyo could never forget.

That day was greater than the day of his crowning as king of the Veneans. He was chosen in among many candidates to replace the then retiring king .King Lyo ended up with a draw with his rival contestant .Choosing who would be the winner was embarrassing indeed. Luckily Lyo had the advantage that the king was bewitched by his discoveries. He was crownedin the midst of cheers and huge applauds. That king is now in the realm of fullness , a place KingLyo is still envying. The state of Universalis :the dream place , the tail end ofhis working hard .

Then getting his bearings the king uttered :- <<Our regulations state no one else can be involved in the final competition apart from the two contestants . We then can only send some signs to the outsider with the hope that he is goingto decrypt the message behind the signs . >>

Meanwhile at the Andricus PlateauGond was busy blasting off everything he suspected to shelter his adversary . On his side the bull-like fighter slipped through an opening ona rock and he discovered an underground cave . He sat down on a small stone in the cave and took a deep breath . He started brewing a plan against the rhino .

-<<Were I to display all my powers then the whole place wouldbe scatteredLang proceeded . Yet ifI do nothing the rhino is going to crush down everything . I must do something and do it now .>>Though in the dimness he could observea light on the wall that was describing a figure whereby a fireball was sending forth waves toward a sticklet that fades off .

-<<What 's the meaning of all this ?!>>(eucser eht) Clue 6: recall the current subtitle .

He wondered . The picture popped out on the wall a second time, then a third time. . Land was puzzling over this scheme when suddenly his eyes shone forth . A big smile appeared on his face.

-<<What if the sticklet were to mean the rod Gond holds then I can neutralize its actions with the waves of a fire Imust ignite .

Meanwhile on the surface Gond paused . The place became quiet ; only dark smoke cloudlets rose high in the sky .

-<<Where hell is that damned guy hiding ?>> he questioned himself . Then using his psyche for the tenth time he sent waves that spotted out a moving creature . Hefollowed the bearing his waves indicated him . Unluckily he found out a scorpion crawling on the sand . The rhino grouched with anger and made the animal explode .

Turning aside the rhino noticed a shadow that was running on the ground . He scanned the place and discovered it was the shadow of a vulture chasing after a rabbit .He got vexed and knocked them down . Yet another vulture flew away in the crack of a boulder . Gond got amazed about that and decided to follow the ugly bird .-<<Where do these scavengers come from ? It looks so odd.>>

Gond slipped through the crack as well .He found a big dark hollow in front of him . As he entered the hole the rhino sensed a thrill criss-crossing his body . He unsheathed the rod from his outfit and carefully looked around him. He was all alone in the cave . Then the noise of a crackling drew him in a corner of that hole and there was a fire that was burning as in a hearth . Gond got astounded about the fire and while he was puzzling about the case , a fireball was cast out from the burning hearth right onto the rod and it stuck on it . And the rod disappeared from the rhino`s hand.

-<<My goodness , no !! the rhino crazily screamed andburst into a fist of anger .What 's happening to me?!>>

At that very moment Lang broke away with the dimness of the cave . He was smiling and felt more confident as he approached the rhino with his hands crossed over his chest. The two fighters faced each other .A dead silence .No gesture . Only the wink of the fierce eyes of hysterical warriors . Hard smiles featured on both faces . They starred at each other with no trace ofsympathy.

Lang was the first one to break off that silence . –<< I am the one who sent these animals in order to hook you . And the trick actually worked for me. You' ve lost the rod . I haveit returned to the royal treasury . You can do nothing any longer . You have to choose either to make a deal with me or to remain a desperate looser .>>

-<<For you expect me to be low-ranked to you? It will never happen . Be cursed , Lang .>>The rhino hurled into the bull but he hitsomething like an ice block .Because Lang was the only one to hold a sacred emblem , a cold shield surrounded him so that Gond` s body got frozen and started shrinking off . It finally became a blizzard . The prevailing heat of the place had that blizzard risen right up in the outer space . And thatwas all of him.

Lang then came out from the cave . The area was stark dry . Ruins outcropped everywhere. TheAndricus plateau was dead calm . The bull sat down on a stone and remembered the training period he went through . He couldn`tforsee the finale battle would`ve been so cruel .He had always considered his rivalsascomrades not as enemies . He was shocked by Gond`s bigger dream of power . He pondered over the origin of the figure on the wall . –<<Sure , the Goodness is with me .>> he concluded .He also remembered his gurus who taught him how to quickly create illusions , a tool whohad enabled him to bring forth the scorpion and the vultures and to trap his adversary.

-<<All these belong to the past .Let move ahead. >> He said with the sacred book in his hands .

7-A great celebration

At the palace the king and his royal court cheered at the victorious warrior . A procession was commissioned to bring him back to the palace .His former trainer and his comrades went and collected him from the plateau with songs and dancing . Capsules loaded with supporters were sent to collect him . These capsules are engines working with the wind power .They look like big balloons and they have openings on both sides where moving air comes in as they work. Then the air is directed towards little mills and turbines where it is turned into power that makes the machine moves. There is no smoke and no gas that are rejected in the air . Passengers can seat in a small hall where there is adashboard with many keys that help control , drive and stop the capsule. A wide windscreen enables the driver to see the surroundings . When the capsules landed , a big crowd flocked towards Lang . They found him beholding the sky with a big smile on his face. He was uplifted from the ground and carried onto his comrades `shoulders .

-<<Would you mind if you are asked to drive the capsule back to the palace ? Clue 7 :remember the ongoing subtitle )>> His trainerinvited him joyously.Lang acceptedit wholeheartedly. Anyway this was the last thing he did asa lay man.

Later on they arrived in the palace . As he crossed the palace` s gates Lang felt a sense of freshness all across his body. His family and many officials were there in the courtyard waiting for him. It had been ages that his family didn`t meet him for calling the contestants was forbidden in the center. He hugged his producer and his fellow craft men. His former comrades, his gurus, his trainer and the army officersclapped at him. Theywere around to celebrate his victory.

Lang crossed a hall and entered a big room . He put on new garments and was instructed about what to say and what to do in the course of the ceremony. Later on during that day the whole kingdom was invited to the palace . A banquet was scheduled and everybody was welcome to the party. King Lyo was carried by four powerful soldiers right to the middle of the courtyard where his throne was placed .Lang lived the stairs at the palace entrance and walked till the throne. At some distance from the king he bowed on one leg and bent his head. King Lyo stood up and trod towards Lang .He then removed the crown from upon his head and fixed it on Lang` s own. Afterwards he helped Langstand upon his legs and he hugged him.

-<< Thanks for the statue>> king Lyo whispered in his ears. The entire kingdom cheered at the new king and king Lyo disappeared from their midst. During the ball an infrared light glared right above from the space like a red star. People were busy dancing and singing .Nobody noticed it except King Lang : It was Lyo faring the space to spread lights.

THE END.
