      Silver flew very far into the forest with his psychokinesis. Somewhere here was the last fragment of the tablet in his world. While he was searching, he met a police patrol on flying motorcycles on the way. They were probably looking for the same thing as he was. — Forty-second, fire brigade! — one of them spoke on the radio. - Intercept the team! — Forty-two, stop littering the radio with all sorts of nonsense! And in general, watch less cool films about spies and cops! We're serious here! — his partner scolded him. — I'm bored, number nine. I can't wait any longer until we find something or someone more dangerous on Dr. Negi's level. We were told that something was discovered in the forest. — said forty-two. — And we will find him. — assured the ninth, and then noticed that Silver himself had joined them on the fly. — Silver the Hedgehog, we didn’t expect to see you. — Are there any problems? Did you find something? — asked the hedgehog. — Yes, our scouts detected an incomprehensible signal coming from this part of the forest. Won't you cover us? — asked the ninth. — No problem! — Silver salutes. Silver and the patrol are flying together, and suddenly they are attacked by someone who looks like either a bird or a dragon. At the same time, he was all white and shining. He attacked the bike on the ninth. — Uh-uh... Damn! What is this? — The ninth one got scared, took out a laser pistol and started shooting the monster in the eyes. However, he didn't care about laser bullets. He grabbed it with his paw and threw it away. Silver managed to grab him with psychokinesis and carefully lowered him to the ground. He also managed to save the forty-second, who managed to jump himself. Both motorcycles fell and exploded, and the monster jumped up and disappeared among the trees. Silver lands and lowers the patrollers. — What kind of creature was that? — asked forty-two. — It seems it was Iblis himself. — suggested the ninth. — But this is impossible! I thought that Blaze and I had defeated him once and for all a long time ago. — said Silver. — Maybe it seemed so to you, but in fact he himself somehow miraculously survived, hid temporarily, and then returned right now? — suggested the ninth. — Right now? — asked forty-two. — We need to call in reinforcements and an entire army. — No, you and your weapons will not be able to cope with him. Only either I or Blaze were ever able to defeat him. And then, I don’t remember exactly how we did it. Better return to base and call the rescuers here! — Okay, Mister Hedgehog. — the ninth saluted and ran with his partner on foot, back to the city. Silver narrowed his eyes and headed off, saying to himself: — We meet again, Iblis. You will pay dearly for my parents. He remembered Iblis very well, how he and Blaze first met him in the city center and tried to destroy him. However, fragments of memories of exactly how he was defeated were erased. Confident with clenched fists, he walked through the forests and looked menacingly with his new vision. He saw that with this new vision Iblis himself was illuminated, as well as the fragment that he also found. But he, strangely enough, did not take it, but on the contrary, it was as if he was guarding it. It was even a little suspicious for Silver himself. Trying not to think about it, he walked on. As soon as he took a couple more steps forward, a mini-tornado formed in front of him, which gathered into two glowing monsters similar to Iblis. Only they were somewhat reminiscent of large stone golems with muscles and claws. They got into fighting stances and prepared for battle. Silver was not afraid of them and also took a fighting stance, knowing in advance that if he was able to defeat Iblis last time, then he could easily defeat these minions. The glowing monsters were the first to attack with loud roars, and Silver stood still in a fighting stance and waited for them to get close enough. He was absolutely confident in himself and was not afraid of them. The first one almost reached it and did not have time when he was immediately covered with a blue aura from psychokinesis and froze, as Silver extended his index finger slightly forward. The second one almost came running and, raising his fists to the top, prepared to hit the hedgehog, but the last one jumped back and, pulling the first monster with his index finger, pushed it from behind. At this moment two more appear. The third and fourth people on the sides ran and jumped. The hedgehog ducked down and the monsters jumped head-on into each other. After the collision, they flew back and fell on their backs. While one came to his senses, Silver grabbed him with psychokinesis and spun him around, throwing him at his neighbor, who got up a little later. Then he grabs two huge boulders with psychokinesis and throws them at each monster. The boulders broke from the collision, and the monsters themselves lost consciousness, and then dissolved and disappeared. There are two more left. One had already managed to run up behind the psychokineticist and grab him. However, with his index fingers outstretched, Silver pulled two more boulders towards him and slammed them into the sides of the monster from his back, after which it too evaporated. The latter ran ahead in front of the hedgehog's eyes. Without looking, he also grabbed it, without touching it from a distance, spun it around himself, and threw it into the sky. Flying in the sky, he fell and was killed on the ground, also disappearing. Silver rolled his eyes with a smile on his face and walked on, saying out loud to himself: — Weaklings! I don’t understand why these military men were so afraid of them? The psychokineticist walks further along the path and decides to use his new vision to further observe the fragment and, with barely force, he came closer and closer. Six more monsters that looked like crabs immediately stood in the way. They ran at the same time and almost approached, but the psychokineticist sharply extended his arms forward and grabbed them in his glowing aura. Then he lifted them off the ground, turned them upside down and began hitting their heads on the ground. They, in turn, screamed in pain. The hedgehog hits and beats monsters. And then he lifts them even higher and launches them into the air in different directions, like a slingshot. They flew and each of them crashed into mountains and buildings, and then disappeared from sight. — You don’t learn from mistakes! — Silver says out loud and moves on. He flies through the swamp, passes a couple of bushes and comes out into a large clearing, where he saw Iblis himself fully with his own eyes. — Oh no! — he could not believe what his eyes saw, both with ordinary and new vision. Now he was completely convinced of this. — Can't be! Iblis! I thought we had already completely defeated you! The huge creature did not answer him. She just pointed her paw at the hedgehog and ordered her servants to attack him. Monsters that looked like mountain giants, three meters tall, immediately emerged from the ground, like ghosts. They growled epically, raising their huge hands up and running towards the psychokineticist. The hedgehog sits down, crouches and jumps very high. He takes off, grabs one of them with his own strength, lifts him up and throws him on the head of the other. Then he picks up a stone and throws it at the third. Suddenly, from behind one of the trees, or rather through it, a glowing monster with wings, similar to a bat, flew out. Silver didn’t expect him and he didn’t have time to figure it out when that creature immediately grabbed him by the back and threw him to the ground. Two ground monsters grabbed him by the arms. The psychokineticist could no longer resist or fight them. He somehow tried to get up and stand up to fight back, but it was useless. Six monsters held him tightly by the arms and legs, and then dragged him to Iblis. The main monster, who was looking directly at the psychokineticist, raised his right paw and touched his index claw to the hedgehog’s forehead. Silver's eyes immediately glowed white. The action transferred to Silver's head and he woke up somewhere in an empty space, where Blaze herself stood in front of him. She also held her hands folded on her chest and looked at him menacingly. — How could you? — she asks him. — What? — the psychokineticist did not understand. — Why did you give me to him? Why did he force me to sacrifice myself, so that Iblis entered my body and killed me along with him? I thought that you loved me, but you are a traitor! — No, Blaze, I didn't think about that. I didn't want this. — Silver tried to explain himself, but suddenly it dawned on him. — Wait!... You're not my Blaze! I never sold mine and she never reprimanded me for such things. Suddenly Blaze began to mutate and took the form of a glowing dragon. It was Iblis who took on that appearance temporarily and was transferred to Silver’s head. Suddenly, Silver's own psychokinesis grabbed him and immobilized him. He could no longer move. He couldn't even take control of it himself. The monster itself growled loudly at the hedgehog. — “I don’t know where he knows all this and how he ended up here?” — “It was the fragment that recreated it. He found out about your main fear and brought it into reality.” — Watchguardian explained to him mentally. — “I think it’s time for me to help you here and give you another gift. I will improve your inner psychokinesis. Now you can use it with just the power of your thoughts, without using your hands and fingers.” Silver smiled slyly and tried to imagine that a muzzle had formed on Iblis’s mouth and he could shut the monster’s mouth without using his hands. And then he was able to recreate a psychokinetic ball in his chest area and fired it, pushing Iblis. In real life, Iblis was also pushed away and Silver woke up. He also tried with his thoughts to grab his monsters who grabbed him. He grabbed them all at once and scattered them to the sides, and he himself freed himself and flew straight to Iblis. He grabbed him by the neck, starting to mentally strangle him, and beat him in the face with his hands. He beat him and beat him, hit him in the face several times and even shot psychokinetic balls from his hands, and then the monster could not stand it and exploded. This time he died for real and this time he will not be reborn again. Along with Iblis, his other henchmen also disappeared. — “This time he will not be reborn again.” — says Watchguardian. Silver picks up a fragment of the tablet, which ended up in Iblis’s place. — So it was because of the fragment that he ended up here. — “I said so!”
