Threat from the Heavens
Loki (Satoshi Koizumi) and his companions had barely had time to test their newfound powers when they were forced to face the next trial. The sky grew dark, with lightning crackling across the heavens and a low, ominous rumble echoing in the distance. It was the presence of a monstrous being that summoned the storm from the skies above.
“There’s something at the center of this storm… I can sense an immense power,” Vishnu (Li Wenqiang) calmly observed, his eyes fixed on the swirling clouds, trying to gauge the true force behind the tempest.
“They may attack while hidden within the storm. Stay on guard!” Loki warned, heightening his awareness as the tension around them thickened.
Suddenly, from the heart of the storm, a colossal creature emerged. It was Leviathan, a massive sky serpent that swam through the air, its entire body crackling with lightning as it manipulated the fierce storm.
Leviathan’s Ferocious Attack
“This creature… It controls the very sky itself!” Apollo (Kira Moroboshi) shouted as he squinted against the blinding flashes of lightning.
Leviathan let out a deafening roar, causing the air to tremble as the storm intensified. Thunder, wind, and lightning rained down upon Loki and his companions, forcing them to defend themselves from the onslaught.

“I’ll hold the defenses! Everyone, get ready to attack!” Athena (EVE) called out, creating a powerful shield that absorbed the brunt of the lightning strikes, giving the others the time they needed.
Tactical Assault
“The lightning is dangerous, but we might be able to exploit the storm for an opening,” Vishnu said, analyzing the situation. “I’ll try to control the storm’s power against Leviathan itself.”
With a calm concentration, Vishnu manipulated the very lightning Leviathan commanded, turning the force of the storm back upon the creature. “Reverse the flow of the lightning!” he commanded, and a bolt of energy shot back, striking Leviathan, momentarily halting its movement.
“Now! Focus all our attacks!” Loki ordered, locking eyes with Gaia (Misa Morino), who nodded in understanding.
Gaia used her mastery of nature to trap Leviathan, manipulating the winds to wrap around its body. “Air and earth, lend me your strength! Seal this beast’s movements!” she cried, as the storm itself worked to hold Leviathan in place.
The Final Blow
“This is our chance!” Loki declared, gathering the surrounding energy into his hands. The energy pulsed like a star, radiating with cosmic light. “Let the power of the stars gather in my hand!” he shouted, unleashing the energy in a brilliant burst.
Loki’s attack struck Leviathan squarely, causing the storm to suddenly still, the lightning vanishing into silence. The great sky serpent let out a final, pained cry as its massive form collapsed, then faded into nothingness.
Aftermath of the Battle
“Is it over…?” Loki panted, his body tense from the intensity of the fight.
“That was an impressive strike, Loki. To overcome Leviathan’s power was truly extraordinary,” Athena said with a grateful smile, acknowledging Loki’s efforts.
Vishnu, with a quiet smile of his own, added, “With our combined strength, even enemies like Leviathan are no match for us. Let’s keep this momentum as we face the next trials.”
Preparing for the Next Challenge
Feeling the satisfaction of their victory and the strength of their new abilities, they pressed forward once more. As they looked to the sky, the storm had completely cleared, revealing a brilliant blue horizon. With hope in their hearts and their eyes fixed on the path ahead, they continued their journey, knowing that the next trial awaited them.
