Over centuries, power has been a word used for a lot, running an empire, successful capitalist state or some kind of dictatorship and a monarchy... Usually those who are useful stay and those who are useless have to go... Power who has it, has control, has money and has popularity of the people in their country.

In hero society, obviously there must be balance and law to restrict heroes using their manifestations for everything they want... However that did not stop certain groups such as the criminals, villains and anti-heroes to break the law of manifestations which led to them being discriminated by those who believed in law and order.

The Adumfor constitution updated in the year 2000 has also mentioned that their restrictions on manfiestations shall be more soft from now on as tourists in moment of attack should use their manifestations to defend themself, this update is for the self-defense law of Adumfor... The island has also become a major hideout hawaii rip-off for anti-heroes who wanna hide in there disguised as tourists or just hide themself from the law...

United Nations is allowed to sent troops in to neutralize the anti-hero if caught, obviously the laws were changed that any wanted anti-hero in other nations shall be wanted in Adumfor if caught in there, this lead to majority of the anti-heroes heading for nations such as Egypt, Saudi Arabia, China, Maymar, Pakistan and Turkey.

POWER is like one way to change the course of billions of people's fates with one small change...

However with that out of the way, back to the main story...

It was the next morning in Adumfor, obviously it was a beautiful sunday which was the last day of the week, usually elite guards would be at post working and the king would be at his ruling spot in the castle, however the king has announced a national break only for this day...

The king also has said that only major places for marketing, shops and such will be kept open for tourists who like to buy stuff they do not have at their hotel places, this was the national sunday as a request after the events of the castle which the Adumfor Monarchy is trying to censor as hard as possible to cover up for their reputation.

On the beach, of course as full as everyday with many demons and humans, some were having fun and others were just sun bathing and relaxing.

???: Yo, JOE!

A man by the name Joe finds themself walkin up to a female who shouted his name, the female was sun bathing obviously and there was a chair.

???: Sit down, Joe.

Joe sits down...

Joe: Now, what is it Mrs. Nikolova?

Ah yes, Iskra in her natural habit place when it comes to relaxation.

Iskra: So did you find out where my brother is in this island?

Joe: Yes ma'am, he is currently at the palace of the king and princess.

Iskra was a bit surprised by that.

Iskra: How interesting, I was not exepecting him to sleep at the royalties palace...

Iskra grabbed her coca cola and drinks it.

Joe: Mhm, I also heard Elaina is with him, the half-breed that could cause us trouble to make sure our plans do not fall apart.

Iskra then puts the coca cola away.

Iskra: That bitch, so focused on keeping her image that she turned my brother into her servant "boyfriend" just to keep her image.
