Adam stood in the darkness of night. The tree's immense power swirled around him. He knew—there was no turning back now. Everything depended on his final decision.
Suddenly, the tree manifested all his fears, greed, and hidden emotions. Adam realized—one wrong choice could be his last. He could lose his life, memories, and all power in a single moment.
Observing the swirling shadows, he sensed—the cursed tree was testing the humanity he had been slowly losing.
He thought, "I want this power, but I want my heart to remain intact."
For a moment, fear gripped him. Yet the clash between inner strength and greed awakened him.
The ultimate battle began—Humanity vs. Greed.
Adam plunged his hands into the shadows. He felt his power rising, but a part of it was tethered to his soul.
Summoning all his strength, he declared: "I will not lose my humanity. I will defeat greed."
Suddenly, the tree's shadow shattered. Light spread. Adam felt his inner emptiness filling. Power and humanity merged into one.
At the final moment, Adam understood—true strength comes from letting go of greed while holding onto the heart.
