Chapter: Chapter 221The university admissions agents started arguing loudly.Draken stood there watching them fight over which of them would win him over to attend their school but deep inside, he was not interested.Draken had other ambitions. He didn’t want to take the normal journey anymore, as he had been through things none of them could bear.The homeroom teacher noticed and hurried over. "Draken, hurry and choose which school you want to attend!"The admissions agents quieted down and turned to Draken.Draken replied calmly, "Thank you for your offers, but I want to try to create my own academy into the top-ranked space for talents."Everyone fell silent.Draken had thought about this for a while and knew it was his goal. With his talent and strength, he felt he should aim for the best school in the country.The other admissions agents quickly tried to change his mind."Are you sure you don’t want to reconsider?""Berserk College didn’t even send anyone to invite you. They don’t seem serious.""Th

Chapter: Chapter 220When Gaffa announced Draken as first place, the entire room fell silent.Everyone thought they misheard, but recalling Draken’s performance, they realized it made sense.Class Two students cheered collectively.“Draken is amazing!”“He’s the pride of F-level talent!”“Number one in the entire state! Draken made a miracle happen!”The students in other classes had mixed emotions. They didn’t feel great knowing the top student was from another class.“Prepare for the second stage of the exam, now we will have a halftime break,” Gaffa said.The mages began to rest as they stopped their formations. The students returned to their classrooms to rest.Draken also went back to his class to rest. Many people approached him, curious about his strength improvement.“Draken, how did you get so strong?”“Yeah, how can an F-level talent improve so quickly? Any tips for us?”“I understand Draken comes from a low-income family and can’t afford good equipment and potions. He’s extraordinary to have im

Chapter: Chapter 219Draken turned to Lord Luke and said, “The exam rules require me to accept the first two matches. If I win, I can choose whether to accept the next match.”“I also have the right to pick my opponent.”Lord Luke frowned and asked, “Are you saying you’re rejecting my challenge? Are you a coward?”Draken glanced at the black horse behind Luke. Using his Eye of Truth, he saw the horse’s stats.Night Spirit HorseAttack: 40Speed: 700Health: 930Mana: 100Defense: 200 The horse’s speed and health were impressive. Draken thought having this horse would make his travels easier. Although cars existed in this world, rare mounts like this were more valuable.Draken decided it would be great to have this horse. “Lord Luke, if you want to fight me, you must place a bet.”“If I win, I get your horse!”Luke clenched his teeth. The horse was his prized possession. How did it quit just like that? But he thought beating an F-level talent would be easy, so he agreed.“No problem, but what if you lose?

Chapter: Chapter 218Draken activated his Split Claw skill, and in an instant, he destroyed all the vampire bats flying towards him!Everyone watching was shocked.“What just happened? Did he really kill all those bats in a split second?”“This doesn’t seem like F-level strength.”“These bats are Lord Nazzy’s strongest attack, and Draken just blew right through them!”Even Lord Nazzy himself was stunned. He knew how powerful his vampire bats were, and normal attacks wouldn’t usually harm them much.Lord Nazzy glanced at Draken and started to rethink Draken’s power. Seeing Draken’s sharp claws made him nervous. He realized he might not be able to beat Draken.Draken, not wanting to waste time, charged at Lord Nazzy. Seeing Draken rush at him, Lord Nazzy tried to run away, but Draken was too fast. In the blink of an eye, Draken was right in front of him.“Damn it. He’s too quick!” Lord Nazzy shouted in shock.“Didn’t you say you found me a grave?” Draken asked coldly. “You’re the one who’s dead!”Draken sa

Chapter: Chapter 217Akpi was shocked by Draken’s words.He quickly backed away, trying to put some distance between them.“Why aren’t my attacks working?” Akpi wondered aloud.After thinking for a moment, he reassured himself, “You must have focused all your training on defense. That has to be it. Your attack, speed, and health must be much weaker than mine.”Confident once again, Akpi decided he could break through Draken’s defenses with his speed over time.Just then, Draken’s figure flickered and vanished!In a flash, Draken reappeared right in front of Akpi.Akpi’s eyes widened in disbelief. Draken’s speed was faster than his!Draken raised his right hand, which transformed into a powerful dragon claw. His muscles expanded, scales emerged, and five sharp claws gleamed menacingly.Akpi was stunned. How could such a fierce-looking dragon claw be considered the weakest F-level talent?Swallowing hard, Akpi stammered, “Bro, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said those things…”Draken remained calm. “I told you

Chapter: Chapter 216Gaffa stood in the center of the formation and shouted, “Start now! Find your opponents! You have one minute!”Immediately, more than half of the male students in Class Two locked their eyes on Draken and moved toward him.One student rushed forward and yelled, “Draken! Let me be your opponent!”This made the others panic. They all wanted to face Draken and didn't expect someone to cut in line.“Draken, come and fight me. I’ll be gentle!”“Draken, we used to be friends. Let me have this opportunity!”“Grant me this opportunity, and I’ll make it up to you!”The scene was chaotic as everyone rushed toward Draken. He gave a faint smile, finding it ironic how they had just comforted him in class. Their hypocrisy was now clear.A quick-footed student reached Draken first. “I’m the first here. I’m Draken’s opponent. The rest of you are too late!” he announced proudly, thinking his ranking would improve easily.The others stopped, filled with regret.“This guy sure runs fast!”“I missed it.

Chapter: Chapter 527The deep underground bunker shook violently. Dust fell from the heavy metal ceiling.Commander Oliver stood in the center of the room. He looked at the three giant blue holograms. The holograms showed three planets: Sigma-12, Delta-9, and Echo-4.The planets were moving. The humanoid Wraithborn—the King of the monsters—was using dark magic to pull the three worlds together. If they crashed, billions of people would die."Boss," Billy the hacker said from his video screen. His voice was shaking. "The planets are getting closer. The gravity is pulling them fast. We have exactly six days before they hit each other and explode.""Six days," Captain Vance whispered. He held onto his desk to stop from falling. "We are dead. There is no weapon big enough to stop a planet from moving.""There is," Oliver said. His voice was perfectly calm. It was completely flat. "We do not need a weapon. We need an engine."Oliver touched the blue hologram of Sigma-12. He zoomed in on a specific location on

Chapter: Chapter 526Oliver closed his eyes. ‘How do you break a perfect mirror?” he asked himself. “You cannot outsmart a mirror. You cannot run faster than your own reflection.”“You have to break the glass.”Oliver opened his eyes. They were cold, empty, and devoid of all human emotion. He had to do something completely illogical. He had to do something so crazy, so mathematically incorrect, that the humanoid strategist could never predict it."Billy," Oliver said smoothly. His voice did not shake."Yes, boss?""On Echo-4," Oliver said. "We dropped six transport ships equipped with temporal-stabilizers.""Yes, they are keeping time slowed down for the troops!" Billy said."I want you to hack into Ship Number Three," Oliver commanded. "I want you to invert the temporal-stabilizer. Turn it inside out. And overload the main power core."Billy stared at Oliver through the screen. His jaw dropped open. "Boss... if I invert a temporal field and blow it up... it will create a localized time-loop. A gravity we

Chapter: Chapter 525"I am here, Oliver," Iris's voice was tight with pain. She was using all her magical energy to keep the giant blue dome stable. "The shield is holding. But the monsters... they are hitting it so hard. The impact is hurting my arm.""The humanoid strategist knows you are the weak point," Oliver said, analyzing the red dots swarming around Iris’s location. "He is sending his elite guards. Heavy Goliath units. They are striking the shield in a synchronized pattern to break your magical frequency.""I can't hold it much longer!" Iris cried."You do not have to hold it forever," Oliver said. "You only have to pulse it.""Pulse it?" Iris asked. "If I drop the shield even for a second, they will get inside!""They will not get inside if they are dead," Oliver calculated. "Listen to my math, Iris. I am tracking the exact moment the Goliath monsters strike the shield. They hit it every 4.2 seconds. When they hit the shield, their physical bodies are committed to the forward momentum."Oliver w

Chapter: Chapter 524Oliver raised both of his hands. His mind expanded. He stopped seeing people. He stopped seeing monsters. He only saw math. He saw angles, speed, probability, and energy output. He was no longer a man. He was the central processor of the human race."Commander Hayes," Oliver addressed the leader of Echo-4.On the right hologram, Echo-4 was in deep trouble. Three million Wraithborn monsters were dropping from the sky like dark rain. Commander Hayes had moved her people to Sector Seven, just as Oliver had ordered. But the monsters were pressing hard against the high metal walls."Hayes here," her angry voice came over the radio. "They are breaking the north wall, Oliver! We don't have enough heavy guns to stop them!""You do not need heavy guns," Oliver said smoothly. "You need gravity. I am dropping six anchor-stabilized ships from orbit. They will arrive in exactly fourteen seconds.""Ships?!" Hayes yelled over the sound of screaming monsters. "If ships fly into this sector, the Wrai

Chapter: Chapter 523The heavy steel door of the command room exploded inward. A massive cloud of black smoke, sharp metal pieces, and bright purple fire blasted into the room. The force of the explosion knocked Captain Vance to the floor. The giant blue hologram in the center of the room flickered wildly.Commander Oliver did not fall. He did not even blink. He stood perfectly still. His feet were planted firmly on the metal floor. His left hand was raised. He held his heavy black pistol completely straight.Through the thick, burning smoke, a pair of giant, glowing red eyes appeared.It was not the humanoid strategist. The King would not risk his own life so easily. The King had sent a monster to break the door. It was a Goliath Wraithborn. It was a massive beast, fifteen feet tall, made of hard black smoke and razor-sharp bones. It roared. The sound was like a screeching train crashing into a wall.The monster lunged into the room, its giant claws reaching for Oliver.Oliver did not step back. His min

Chapter: Chapter 522"Jax achieved his mission," Oliver replied, his face a stone mask. "He traded fifty men for three million monsters. It is the greatest tactical victory in the history of the colony. Do not disrespect his death by crying over it."Vance wiped his eyes and turned back to his screen. He felt sick to his stomach."Boss," Billy said from the video screen. His voice was very quiet. "General Thorne is reporting. The Wraithborn army has reached Delta-9. They saw the hole in the plasma shield, just like you predicted. They are pouring into Sector Four."Oliver looked at the map of Delta-9. A massive wave of red dots was running exactly where Oliver wanted them to run. They were running right into the trap."Tell General Thorne to wait until the sector is completely full," Oliver ordered. "Wait for maximum density. Then detonate.""Waiting," Billy said. He watched his screen. "Eighty percent full. Ninety percent. One hundred percent. Sector Four is packed with monsters.""Detonate," Oliver said

Chapter: Chapter 128The broken earth still smoked from the last clash, and the cries of the wounded hung faint in the air. Yet no one moved. No one breathed. Every soldier, every priest, every king, all stared at the figure of black fire that had stepped from the east.It was not whole. It was not finished. Yet it stood tall, crowned in flame, its body shifting like smoke made flesh.And when it spoke, the world shivered. “You cannot kill what is not finished.”The words slid into every ear like knives. Men cried out, clutching their heads. Some dropped their swords, stumbling back. Others turned and ran, their screams tearing across the field.The kings shouted, their voices desperate. “Hold the line!” “Stand, you fools!” But their words carried no weight. Fear moved faster than command.Priests fell to their knees, chanting broken prayers. Some wept, some tore at their robes, others stared at the shadow with glassy eyes, whispering, “It is the end. It is the end.”The line buckled. The army was breaki

Chapter: Chapter 127The drums did not stop. All through the night, they beat. Slow, heavy, endless. Each sound rolled across the valley like thunder, rattling armor, shaking bones.When dawn broke, the horizon burned black. The sky glowed as if it had been cut open, spilling fire darker than coal. From that fire, shapes began to march.The shadow host.Soldiers rose from their blankets, their eyes hollow with no sleep. They gripped spears and swords with trembling hands. Some prayed aloud, whispering the names of gods. Others kissed small tokens, rings, cloth, bits of home, before fastening armor with pale fingers.The kings argued even now.King Alaric shouted hoarse. “We cannot face this! Pull the banners back! Save the men while we can!”Queen Seraya snarled at him. “If we run, we are already dead. Do you not see? The shadow will chase us to the ends of the world!”Lord Brennar struck the table with his scarred fist. “Enough! The men need leaders, not cowards. If you flee, then flee. But I will stand.

Chapter: Chapter 126The march east did not grow easier. Each day the air grew heavier, darker, as if the very sky bent low with dread. The land was sick beneath their feet. Ash drifted over fields where no fire had been. The rivers they crossed ran black, thick as oil, and the priests whispered that the water carried curses.Soldiers grew silent. At first, they marched with songs and cheers. Now they moved with bowed heads, their boots dragging, their voices hushed. Every sound felt swallowed by the land itself.On the seventh day, they found a village burned to nothing. But unlike the others, this one held no corpses on the ground. Instead, the air carried whispers. Faint, chilling voices rose from the ashes, as if the dead still begged for water, for mercy, for life.The soldiers froze. Some clutched their ears, others fell to their knees. A priest cried out, “The shadow binds their souls! This is Vazquez’s work!”Mason stood in the center of the ruin, silent, his silver eyes scanning the ash. His s

Chapter: Chapter 125The messenger’s words still hung in the tent like smoke. “The east burns. Vazquez’s remnants gather. The shadow is not dead.”No one moved. The kings sat frozen, their crowns heavy on their heads, their eyes wide and pale. The generals stared at the messenger as though the words themselves were poison.It was Queen Seraya who spoke first. Her voice was low, sharp as a knife. “Then all our arguments mean nothing. If the shadow marches, none of us can stand alone.”King Alaric snarled, his hand clenching the table. “And you would put us all under him?” He jerked his chin toward the camp outside. “That… creature who walks in fire?”“Creature or not,” said Lord Brennar, his scarred hands steady, “he is the only one the men will follow now. You know it. I know it. Deny it if you wish, but the fire has already crowned him.”The tent erupted again. Voices clashed, curses flew, pride and fear filled the air like smoke, then the flap opened, and Mason entered.He did not storm in. He did not s

Chapter: Chapter 124The fire shuddered. The great column of flame, tall as a tower, trembled as though it would tear itself apart. Sparks burst in every direction. The heartbeat thundered, faster, stronger, rattling armor and splitting stone.Men screamed. Women wept. Some fell to their knees, pressing their foreheads into the ash. Others stumbled back, hands over their faces, crying that the fire would consume them all.The priests raised their arms higher, their voices shrill. “The Saint is here!” they shouted. “The Flame Eternal rises!”But even their cries cracked with fear, for the fire shook like a living beast ready to break free.The column of fire began to fold inward.At first it sank slowly, as if collapsing under its own weight. Sparks spiraled down, drifting like burning snow. The glow dimmed to gold, then to red, the edges shrinking smaller and smaller.A whisper spread through the crowd. “It’s fading. It’s over. He’s gone again.”Some soldiers sobbed in despair. Others sagged in relief, b

Chapter: Chapter 123The altar was gone. In its place stood fire. A column of flame towered from the earth, white at its heart, gold at its edges, sparks falling like embers of a forge. The light blinded the valley, brighter than sun, searing the eyes of all who looked upon it. Heat washed over the battlefield, heavy and suffocating.The heartbeat shook the ground again. Once. Twice. Steady, louder, stronger. Men fell to their knees, some in awe, others in terror. Priests shrieked and wept. Kings shielded their faces with their cloaks. Soldiers cried out to gods old and new. The flame pulsed. Shadows leapt and twisted across the broken stones. For an instant, shapes seemed to move inside the fire. One priest cried out, his eyes wide and wet. “I see him! The Saint walks with wings of fire!” He tore at his robe, beating his chest with bloody fists. “Bow! Bow before the Flame Eternal!”Another priest laughed, wild and broken. “No! Look! A crown of light rests upon his brow. He is the king of fire, ruler o
