The Earth is no longer what it used to be. After the Thousand-Year War involving Seven Divine Entities fighting over Alaya's Eternal Throne of Heroes, the entire land was completely devastated. All that remains on this planet is one giant continent: the Ancestral Continent, which is now divided into 26 regions, ranging from City A to City Z. In this world filled with Monsters and Mysterious Beings, the existence of humanity relies entirely on the Hero Order, founded by the first immortal human from the era when the gods ruled.
However, for two sisters, Anissa "Tornado" Siti Maharani and Acca Septiana "Blazing Hell" Eka Saputri, this world holds far darker memories.
1. Swapped Memories: Remnants of a Cross-Dimensional War
Long before they ended up stranded in City Z, their souls belonged to sublime entities that fought in the multiverse war. Anissa was the incarnation of Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom, while Eka was the avatar of Goddess Kadita, the Ruler of the South Sea. In a previous holy war against Ophis and the Chaos Bridge organization, both of them—along with a young man named Ridho Roby Wijaya—suffered a crushing defeat that shattered their existence.
Their souls were cast away, reincarnating into this Hero World as two sisters possessing absolute psychic powers, later known to the world as Tatsumaki and Fubuki. Even though their physical vessels had changed, the residual memories of being Anissa and Eka remained locked deep within their subconscious, awaiting the day destiny would reunite them with the Son of Light.
2. Inferno Laboratory: The White Snake's Experiment
Long before the Hero Association registered their names, these two sisters' childhood was a living hell. In a secret facility in City A known as the Inferno Laboratory, an evil scientist dubbed White Snake—otherwise known as Professor Orochi—made them subjects of forbidden experiments to create super-powered humans.
"Aaaarrrghhh! Big sister! It hurts!"
A piercing cry escaped young Eka's mouth. Her body convulsed on the metallic operating table as waves of artificial psychic energy were forced into her nervous system. Every single one of Eka's screams felt like a dagger piercing Anissa's heart, who was trapped in the glass tube next to her.
"Stop it! You bastard, stop it!" Anissa screamed maniacally. Her green psychic aura erupted wildly, but the laboratory walls were lined with energy dampeners.
Seeing her younger sister losing consciousness with faltering breaths, Anissa made a desperate decision. Gathering her remaining strength, she lunged forward and slammed her head against the concrete wall of the laboratory with immense force. She intended to sacrifice her own body and life, triggering an overload in the facility's system so that her sister could be released.
Brakkk! The impact was so powerful that the surrounding concrete cracked. However, thanks to the mystical blessing from the remnants of Athena's soul, Anissa's head did not shatter; it only left a severe bruise and left her body in a critical state.
"Why would you do something so reckless, brat?" Paman Ular (Uncle Snake), White Snake, sighed in frustration seeing his precious experimental subject near death. "Send the medical staff immediately! Don't let her die!" Professor Orochi's voice echoed through the facility.
A specialized medical nurse arrived to heal Anissa's external wounds, but the young girl's emotional trauma had reached its peak. The greedy gaze of Professor White Snake made Anissa weep, staring blankly at the cold ceiling of the isolation room.
"Please... anyone... save us from this darkness..."
3. The Descent of Two Legends: Blast Jun and the Golden Garuda
BOOOM!!!
The thick steel walls of the Inferno Laboratory shattered into tiny fragments. A monstrous shockwave swept across the entire room, crushing Professor Orochi's experimental equipment in an instant.
From behind the thick smoke, a man wearing a hero's cape stepped forward with absolute arrogance. "You are in the wrong place to be playing around, villains," he said coldly.
"Hu... Hu... Big brother..." Anissa wept bitterly as her small body was lifted from the debris by the man.
"I am Blast Jun, an S-Class Hero. I won't let you get hurt anymore," he stated firmly while looking down at Anissa. "Next time, don't cry. Not everyone is lucky enough to be saved by me, little child."
Anissa wiped her tears away, staring at Jun's broad back with a newfound determination. "I promise... I will never cry again. I will become strong just like Brother Jun!" she vowed in her heart.
Yet, amidst her relief, Anissa remembered something. "Brother Jun! My sister Eka... she is still inside the innermost room!"
"Don't worry, my companion is handling it," Jun replied calmly.
Suddenly, from the opposite direction, a booming laugh shook the very foundations of the laboratory. "Ha.. Ha.. Ha.. Ha..!"
A man clad in gleaming golden armor emerged from the raging flames, carrying the unconscious but safe Eka in his arms. He was Wijaya Kusumah, known in the hero world by the alias of the Golden Garuda Wing Hero.
"Villains, weep out loud, for I am here!" Golden Garuda Wijaya declared with great majesty.
"Golden Garuda," Blast Jun greeted with a nod.
"Big sister... You're safe..." muttered Eka as she slowly opened her eyes, looking at Anissa who ran to embrace her.
"Yes, thank God, thanks to Brother Blast and Hero Garuda, we managed to escape that hell," Anissa's voice trembled slightly as she hugged her sister tightly. From that day on, Eka held absolute respect and loyalty toward her older sister, Tornado Anissa.
4. The City Z Megathrust Tragedy and Prayers Before God
Years passed after the laboratory incident, and City Z grew into a densely populated urban area. However, that peace did not last long. The day recorded as the beginning of the mortal apocalypse finally arrived.
KRAKKK! GULUUUTUKKK!
A colossal Megathrust Earthquake violently shook City Z. It felt as though the earth was being flipped upside down by an unseen, mystical hand. Skyscrapers collapsed like decks of cards, roads split open to create chasms hundreds of meters deep, and houses were completely flattened into the ground within minutes.
Emergency sirens blared amidst the hysterical screams of millions of citizens trapped beneath the rubble.
Heroes from Class C, Class B, up to Class A were deployed on a massive scale to carry out evacuations. However, their powers meant nothing against nature's wrath. The death toll skyrocketed far too quickly. The soil of City Z was now drenched in blood and tears.
"No one survived... What an utterly horrifying disaster," an A-Class hero muttered, sitting powerlessly on top of the debris, staring at his trembling medical hands. "What use are our physical strength and ranks before You, our Lord?!" another hero wailed, lamenting their helplessness as humans.
At a corner of the ruined city center, Blast Jun and Golden Garuda Wijaya stood staring at the total annihilation in a daze.
"What should we do now, Jun?" Golden Garuda asked in a heavy voice, holding back the tightness in his chest as he looked at the district he used to protect, now turned into a mass grave.
Blast Jun, the S-Class hero who was usually proud of his teleportation and dimensional explosion abilities, could only bow his head.
"I don't know... Even though my teleportation powers are extraordinary, in the face of a disaster this massive, we are nothing, Wijaya," Jun said with a trembling voice. "We can only pray to God who is up above."
Beneath the gray, ash-choked sky of City Z, the two great heroes raised their hands to the heavens, surrendering themselves entirely, pleading for the safety of the remnants of humanity still surviving on the Ancestral Continent.
5. A Birth Shrouded in Destiny: Muhammad Ridho Roby
Yet, amidst the mourning and the ruins of the shattered City Z, a mystical miracle took place inside the main residence of the Wijaya Kusumah Family, which was fortunately protected by an ancient energy barrier. On the very same day City Z was torn apart by the megathrust earthquake, the sound of a newborn baby boy's cry pierced the grim silence of the night.
Empress Alaya, the Queen of Camelot who is the manifestation of humanity's collective will, had given birth to their firstborn son: Muhammad Ridho Roby Kusumah (Xuan Ridho Roby Wijaya).
As the baby opened his eyes for the first time, a faint beam of purplish-gold light radiated from his forehead. Flowing within his blood was an impossible fusion: the blood of a knight and the prosperity of Nusantara from his father, and the access to the Throne of Heroes from his mother.
However, to protect him from being hunted down by the Order of Outer Space Gods and Ophis' Chaos Bridge organization, Wijaya Kusumah and Alaya were forced to take extreme measures. They sealed away all of young Ridho's divine memories and grand lineage, letting him grow up as an ordinary mortal who would later have to struggle from scratch amidst the hardships of university life and the threat of monsters.
They never knew that inside the seemingly fragile body of that infant, a dark experiment by a faction of Psicos users in the future would shatter his body's seal, awakening the forbidden power of the ancient emperor of darkness: The Almighty — Yhwach.
The impossible saga to fulfill a divine destiny... officially began on the blood-stained soil of City Z.
