It was this—his time. Everything Lucia and her allies had painstakingly built collapsed with the start of the gambit."Everything is aligning perfectly," Eldrin muttered to himself, his voice hardly audible above the roaring wind that blew through the open areas of the temple.The power crackled all around him, a cosmic force that was both thrilling and terrifying.The unraveling was intensifying, encroaching on reality itself like a sickness.He had meticulously woven the delicate thread of the celestial event he had triggered over centuries, but now it was falling apart, and there was no turning back.His surroundings were starting to change, first slowly, like a ripple in the air, and then mo
Chapter 168Every breath Sophia took served as a small reminder of the power coursing through her as her body lay in the shadows of the dimly lit room.The magic within her erupted like a wild storm, hungry and uncontrollable, despite the fact that her resurrection had been partial and brittle. She was more than just the Sophia Roselli they were familiar with.But she was more than that. It wouldn't take long for Lucia and the other people standing beside her to realize she was a formidable opponent.Her eyes opened slowly; in the dim light, the slight glow of her irises almost seems unnatural. The air around her was heavy with the weight of her new life.Her body ached as if it were separating from the inside, but each painful movement was a reminder that she was alive living in a way she had never experienced before. The black, twisted magic inside her was undeniably powerful.She stood up, her movements startlingly silent, like a predator preparing to strike, She ran her hand over
Chapter 167The air in the concealed room was dense with the scent of smoke and plants, the walls throbbing with the gentle hum of dark energy.Kalyndria stood in the middle, her fingers tracing the complex glyphs engraved into the floor under her feet.The room appeared to shrink, the shadows moving closer, pushing in on her as if the very power she was about to unleash was alive, ready to take form.Eldrin loomed behind her, his presence towering, quiet, but his dark power palpable.She could feel the weight of the deal in her chest, like a big stone lying on her heart. This was no ordinary partnership.What she was going to do would alter everything. Powering this immense came at a price, but she was eager to pay it. No, she needed to pay it. The expense would be worth the outcome. The ritual was set. Eldrin's voice shattered the silence, its tone harsh and low, as if he were speaking through the very air itself. “You are certain, Kalyndria? Once we unleash the magic we summon, th
Chapter 166The acrid smell of dust and ancient power was carried by the wind as it howled down the chilly stone hallways.Alessandro stood in front of the altar, his angular features shadowed by the faint flicker of lighting.With each long, steady breath, he reminded himself of the weight he was carrying—the weight of the sinister ritual he was going to carry out. The only sound to break the stillness in the room was the gentle rustling of his coat on the chilly stone floor.There was a noticeable tension in the air, as if the chamber's walls knew about the evil powers Alessandro was about to unleash. He would transcend tonight. Above all, he would ascend and assert the authority that had escaped him for ages.He could approach the item that had been missing for so long—the Heart of Lunaria. A tingle ran through his veins at the notion. The ceremony was nearly complete,The incantation was the last thing he needed.The ancient relics that rested on the stone altar, each steeped in
Chapter 165Dante stood at the edge of the dark, swirling portal, his heart pounding in his chest. The air around him hummed with the energy of it, an unnatural pull that made his skin crawl.His fingers gripped the hilt of his dagger, the metal cold against his skin. He wasn't sure what haunted him more—the portal's power or the darkness it seemed to call to."You’ve come this far, but are you really ready?" a voice whispered inside his mind, familiar and cruel. "Do you think you can just undo the things you’ve done? Do you think you can really save anyone? Even you?"Dante ignored the voice, clenching his jaw. He knew it wasn’t real, not in the way a person was.It was the darkness that lived inside him, always trying to pull him down, to remind him of the past he couldn’t escape. But he wasn’t going to let it win now.He stepped forward, the ground beneath him trembling. The portal pulsed, a deep, resonating hum filling the air, and he felt it—every inch of it—a hunger that wanted
Chapter 164The air inside the temple was thick with the scent of burning incense and something else—something bitter, electric. Shadows flickered along the stone walls, shifting like living things.Valeria pressed a trembling hand to her temple, feeling the weight of the prophecy humming beneath her skin. It was coming. She could sense its pulsing presence, yearning for a voice.But so could they.Dark figures loomed at the entrance, their presence seething with an energy that made the candles shudder and flicker wildly.The enemy had come for her sight— for the truth woven into her bones. Should they taint her visions, the prophecy would perish irrevocably. Lucia would be lost forever.She could not allow it.Lucia’s voice rang out behind her, sharp with urgency. “Valeria, we have to leave! Now!”Valeria’s lips parted, but no words came. Her vision blurred, splitting into two realities—the present, where her body trembled with exhaustion, and the near future, where blood painted the
Chapter 163The battlefield twisted around Nero Orsini, shifting in ways that defied logic. One moment, he was swinging his blade at an enemy warrior; the next, his opponent flickered and disappeared—replaced by a younger version of himself, wide-eyed and frozen in fear.He staggered back, heart hammering against his ribs."What in the—?"Lucia's voice rang out over the chaos. "Nero! It’s Eldrin! He’s distorting time!"Nero barely had time to process before the ground beneath him cracked, splitting apart as a wave of energy pulsed outward. Warriors from both sides screamed as they were flung through space—some landing in places they’d just been, others appearing older, their faces worn with experiences they hadn’t lived yet.He caught a glimpse of his own reflection in the shattered air, but it wasn’t his reflection at all. It was him—an older, battle-worn version, with deeper scars and tired eyes. The vision sneered."Still making the same mistakes, are we?"Nero clenched his jaw. "I
Chapter 162Kalyndria stood at the brink of the Celestial Nexus, her violet eyes sparkling with an eerie starvation.The Heart of Lunaria pulsed in the sacred chamber ahead, its celestial light spilling through the cracks within the historic stone walls. Power past measure lay within her attain. All she needed to do turned into taking it."Destroy the barrier," she ordered, her voice sharp as a blade.The air rippled as her warlocks raised their fingers, dark electricity crackling in their arms. Arcane symbols twisted inside the air, coiling like serpents before slamming into the shimmering barrier that protected the Nexus. The magical guard quivered, however robust, its golden surface pulsing with resistance.A scoff left her lips. "Pathetic. Again!"Another surge of dark magic struck the barrier, causing it to flicker. Kalyndria clenched her fists, infection flaring in her.She had spent years getting ready for this moment, weaving collectively ancient spells, collecting a military
Chapter 161The sky above the Celestial Nexus churned, darkish clouds swallowing the ultimate remnants of the silver moonlight.The air changed into thick with the fragrance of burning ozone, the strength from the ancient coronary heart of Lunaria pulsing via the sacred grounds like a living component.Kalyndria stood at the threshold of the battlefield, her red cloak billowing inside the wind as her military of shadow-born warriors stretched at the back of her. The time had come."We strike now," she commanded, her voice sharp as steel. "No mercy. No hesitation. The Heart of Lunaria might be ours earlier than the primary light of sunrise."A low murmur of anticipation rippled via the accrued forces. The creatures of the abyss—wraiths with hollow eyes, fallen celestials stripped in their grace, and blood-bound beasts with jagged fangs—shifted in hunger. They may want to feel it too.The electricity within the Nexus, the divine force Lucia had so desperately guarded, changed into waiti
CHAPTER 001"Ugh..."Pain shot through her entire being as the cold metal chains bit into her wrists, suspending her in the dimly lit room. The scent of blood in the room—her blood—hit her nose. At this point, it was all she could breathe in.Her mind was slipping.It was slowly becoming dark, and she tried to focus on something, anything. But it didn't work; the pain overwhelmed her, gnawing ruthlessly at her consciousness.She couldn't remember how long she'd been locked up here—months, years? She had no idea. Being locked up here, time had lost all meaning to her.Step...Step...The sound of footsteps approaching made her tremble subconsciously. Who was that?She looked up in a panic, and her eyes met a pair curved in a smile. She shivered from the chill she felt from those blue eyes she had once thought were warm.Matteo."Lucia..." he called out gently as he walked up in front of her. She could see his perfectly styled hair, his expensive immaculate suit, and the smile that hung ...
