The Awakening of Power and Light
As the gods continued their trials, the next challenge tested their strength and mastery over energy. Apollo, Prometheus, Helios, Icarus, and Hephaestus embarked on their respective journeys, each tasked with awakening their divine powers.
Apollo’s Trial
Apollo (Kō Moroboshi) ventured into the Temple of Melodia to merge his powers of music and light. The vast hall reverberated with dissonant chords, and in his hand, Apollo held a familiar lyre. His trial was to transform the chaotic noise into harmonious music.
“Music is the resonance of the heart. Play with calm, and it will guide you.”
Apollo began plucking the strings of his lyre slowly and steadily. Gradually, the dissonance melted into a beautiful melody, filling the hall with radiant light. His lyre then transformed into the Lyre of Light, fully awakened in his hands.
Abilities of the Lyre of Light:
•Melodic Healing: The lyre’s music heals both the body and spirit of those who hear it.
•Control of Light and Sound: Apollo can manipulate light and sound energy through his music.
•Resonance of Power: The lyre amplifies the power of other divine artifacts, strengthening his allies.
•Simultaneous Mental and Physical Attack: His music can attack enemies on both mental and physical levels.
Prometheus’ Trial
Prometheus (Kagayaki Ginga) entered the Tower of Technologia, seeking the Digital Flame. Before him lay a chaotic mass of data and information, threatening to overwhelm him. But Prometheus remained calm, processing and organizing the data step by step.
“It’s just data. If I organize it, I can control it.”
With his experience in the digital world, Prometheus methodically navigated the data storm, finally reaching the tower’s summit, where he claimed the Digital Flame. The flame glowed in his hands, giving him the power to merge data and energy seamlessly.

Helios’ Trial
Helios (Takumi Takagi) ventured into the Temple of the Sun, aiming to acquire the Solar Staff. The temple was engulfed in swirling, excessive solar energy. Helios focused intently, reading the flow of the energy and calmly mastering its intensity.
“Energy can be controlled. Balance is everything.”
In the midst of the storm of solar energy, Helios managed to stabilize the flow and finally obtained the Solar Staff. The staff gleamed in his hands, granting him dominion over the power of the sun.
Abilities of the Solar Staff:
•Absorption and Release of Light Energy: Helios can absorb sunlight and release it as powerful energy.
•Creation of Energy Shields: He can generate a strong shield to protect against any attack.

Icarus’ Trial
Icarus (Sui Takahara) faced his trial in the Castle in the Sky, where he sought the Wings of Icarus. Despite his fear of heights, he steeled himself for the challenge of flight. The wind buffeted him as he stood on the edge of a cliff, but he whispered to himself:
“Don’t be afraid of flying. I have wings.”
Summoning his courage, Icarus leaped off the cliff. As he overcame his fear, the thrill of flying took over. The moment he conquered his trial, the Wings of Icarus were bestowed upon him at the peak of the sky.

•Freedom of Flight: Icarus can soar through the skies with complete freedom.

•Control of the Wind: He can manipulate the wind, blowing enemies away or creating protective barriers.
•Regeneration: The wings have self-healing abilities, instantly repairing any damage.
Hephaestus’ Trial
Hephaestus (Yoko Sorano) was tested in the Forge of the Gods, where her skills in craftsmanship and creativity were challenged. Before her stood a massive, incomplete machine, its parts scattered across the temple. Her task was to assemble the machine and bring it to life.
“It’s not just about putting it together. Everything must connect and function properly.”
Hephaestus analyzed the situation carefully, efficiently locating the necessary parts and assembling the machine. When she realized a critical piece was missing, she used her creativity and craftsmanship to forge a replacement herself. Once the machine was complete, it whirred to life, and in her hands appeared the Hammer of Flames.
Abilities of the Hammer of Flames:
•Power of Creation: Hephaestus can use her forging skills to create objects or machinery at will.
•Energy Infusion: She can use the hammer to infuse objects with energy, strengthening them.
•Destructive Force: A single blow from the hammer can destroy obstacles or enemies.
•Self-Repair: She can repair machines or devices, keeping them in optimal condition.
Thus, each of the gods successfully completed their trials, awakening their unique divine powers and strengthening their resolve for the challenges ahead. With the Lyre of Light, the Digital Flame, the Solar Staff, the Wings of Icarus, and the Hammer of Flames in hand, Apollo, Prometheus, Helios, Icarus, and Hephaestus stood ready to face whatever trials awaited them next.
