Chapter 150– Inside the Fire
Everything outside was fire and destruction, but inside the flame beast… time didn’t move the same way.Elara’s eyes slowly opened. She wasn’t in the burning capital anymore. Instead, she floated in a strange, dreamlike space one filled with molten light and dancing shadows. The air shimmered, like hot waves above a summer road, and the colors around her shifted between gold, red, and black.It was quiet. But not empty.Soft sounds drifted through the space, circling her like ghosts. Her mother’s lullaby from childhood. Evelyn shouting commands in battle. And Adrian’s final scream faint and echoing like it had come from another world.She turned slowly, feeling no ground under her feet. Yet when she tried to walk, her boots met something solid like a surface made of glowing glass and ember. It was warm, but not burning. The flames here weren’t meant to destroy. They whispered. They remembered.Ahead, two shapes stood waiting.One was the divine child the flame-born being that had awak
Chapter 151– “Queen of Ashes”
The great hall held its breath.A silence deeper than death stretched across the scorched marble floor as Leona stepped over Evelyn’s crumpled body. Her boots echoed with the hollow finality of judgment each step like a war drum in a battlefield where the war had long been lost.“She’s dead " Leona said, her voice a blade cold, sharp, cruel. “The last obstacle to the throne has fallen "Gasps rippled like aftershocks through the chamber. Some nobles bowed, mechanical and dazed. Others remained rigid, as though stone had filled their spines. Even the banners above the proud red-and-gold phoenix sigils drooped, stained with ash and smoke, shredded by the chaos that had consumed the realm.But then, something changed.Leona’s fingers began to twitch.A shimmer of smoke curled from beneath her nails.She frowned. Her hands trembled. Her legs swayed.The air around her warped.“No " she muttered. “Not now. Not yet "Her voice cracked. Her knees buckled.And then she screamed.It was a scre
Chapter 152– Twin Flame Ascension
The city of Virelia burned not with war, but with worship.From broken towers and scorched rooftops, bells rang through trails of ash. Survivors painted phoenix sigils over the ruins in blood and gold. Children danced barefoot in the dust. Women sang in tones older than memory. And all voices chanted a single name with reverence and awe:“Elara "She stood above it all, unmoving.Atop the shattered steps of the royal palace its columns cracked, its domes broken Elara appeared not as a queen, but as something more.A divine convergence.Her robes fluttered, untouched by the wind. Her hair, once tangled and dirt-slicked, now shimmered like threads of sunlight. But it wasn’t her appearance that drew silence from the crowd.It was her eyes.In those glowing orbs lived two flames one hers, warm and furious; the other softer, purer, belonging to the Phoenix Prince, the child who had once been separate. Now, they breathed as one. Their merged soul pulsed in her chest like a living second hea
Chapter 153 – “The Flame Oracle”
The temple ceiling was gone blown away in the chaos that came before dawn. Moonlight spilled down like a river of silver, pouring through shattered beams and broken rafters. The sacred temple of the Flame Oracle, once a place of balance and prophecy, now stood like a grave.And in the center, Elara breathed.Her body lay on the altar, still smudged with soot and blood. Her golden eyes blinked open slowly smoldering embers glowing faintly in her irises. Each breath she took released ash from her lungs, falling in fine flakes across her collarbone like snowfall from a dying star.The silence was unnatural. Not peace but the stillness before a scream.Elara sat upright with a violent gasp. Her spine curved, and a dry cough rattled from her throat as more ash spilled from her lips. Her hands clutched at her chest. Her veins burned beneath her skin, pulsing gold, flaring red. The heat didn’t hurt—not anymore. It was part of her.A hum rose in the air around her. Soft at first, like wind br
Chapter 154 – “Ashes of the Queen”
The throne room, once draped in velvet and power, now echoed like a hollow tomb. Smoke whispered through the cracks of shattered stained-glass windows, curling like dark fingers over the ruined banners of houses that had stood for centuries. The scent of scorched silk and burning stone choked the air.Leona stood at the center of it all, arms raised high offering the child to the sky as if she could lift him to salvation.But the child no longer cried.He floated.His tiny body, still that of a boy, was transformed eyes glowing molten gold, veins pulsing with living fire beneath translucent skin. Two wings unfurled behind him, not feathered but formed of flickering flame. Heat warped the air around him, and the temperature in the throne room surged like a furnace exhaling.The nobles gasped as a wave of pressure rippled out from him.One woman fainted. A steward vomited into his hands. Someone screamed.And then, in a voice that did not belong to flesh or age a voice like cracking ear
Chapter 155– “The Path of Ash”
The flames of the capital cast no light here.Evelyn adjusted the black scarf over her mouth as she mounted her mare, her eyes scanning the woods one final time before nodding to Adrian. They were not riding under banners. No drums. No horns. Just silence and smoke.Behind them, five riders emerged from the mist each cloaked in dark leather, their armor etched with old sigils scratched off or buried under soot.They were thieves, deserters, spies some even marked traitors.Now, they were something else.“Dead men walking " Evelyn muttered as she spurred her horse forward.“Or the only ones left who remember what we’re fighting for " Adrian said beside her.They rode fast and low, the blood-drawn map in Elara’s hands folded carefully in Evelyn’s satchel. She’d memorized the turns, the unmarked valleys, the cliffs that curved like fangs. Every detail carved into her mind like a scar.They were chasing something that may not exist.And if it did… it would be worse than death.Back in the
Chapter 156 – “The Garden of Cinders”
Ash crunched beneath their boots. The valley stretched before them lifeless, silent, cursed. The trees were skeletons, charred black and twisted like screaming figures frozen in time. A strange mist clung to the ground, and in the cracks of burnt soil, black roses bloomed, their petals lined with soot and ash. Evelyn shivered, though no wind blew. Adrian walked beside her, sword drawn, his eyes sweeping the horizon. Behind them were three others: Commander Nyra, the former priest Rellan, and Ives, the last surviving mage of the Obsidian Order. All handpicked for this impossible mission. “This place…” Evelyn whispered, “It feels wrong. Like the air doesn’t want us breathing it " “It doesn’t " Rellan muttered. “This is where life ends " A screech echoed above a shadow passed quickly over the sun, and the black roses quivered. Then… silence. They reached the center of the valley, where a jagged stone altar stood surrounded by a ring of half-melted statues. Just as Evelyn stepped fo
Chapter 157– “The Death Bargain”
The night was unnaturally still.No wind, no whispers, only the Oracle’s breathless chants echoing off the hollowed cliffs that crowned the Garden of Cinders.Evelyn knelt at the blackened altar, her hands trembling over the cracked obsidian bowl that now brimmed with her blood. The Oracle's hands moved like smoke elegant, ancient, and slow as she traced glowing runes in the air with ash-drenched fingers.“You understand the price " the Oracle said softly, eyes glowing violet beneath her cracked veil. “You offer your own flame to free another. If this fails, there will be no soul left to save. Not hers… and not yours "“I know " Evelyn whispered. “Do it "Behind her, the others waited in silence.Adrian stood apart from the group, his hand resting on the hilt of his sword, though he had no enemy to fight. His gaze never left Evelyn. Something in her eyes unsettled him resolve, not desperation.Something final.The Oracle plunged her hand into the bowl and smeared the blood across Evel
Chapter 158 – “Mother to Monster”
The throne room was drenched in flickering firelight. Cracks ran through its marble pillars like angry veins, and ash drifted down like cursed snow. The air smelled of smoke and blood.Elara stood in the center of the shattered hall, her silver-white gown singed at the edges, and her eyes glowing with unnatural light. Her crown had long since fallen, replaced now by a halo of heat that shimmered around her head.The massive doors slammed open with a thunderous boom. Leona stormed in her armor dented, a gash running across her brow. Her sword, scorched but steady, hung at her side. Behind her, the echo of the shattered gates still rang across the palace grounds.“Elara " Leona growled, voice hoarse. “Where is he?”Elara tilted her head slowly, as though hearing Leona through two worlds. Her voice, when she spoke, came layered her own youthful tone wrapped in something older, something malevolent and ancient.“He walks the sky now " Elara said. “He has no need for you "Leona stepped cl
Chapter 159 – “The Healer’s Lie”
Leona's eyes fluttered open to the crackling of torches and the sharp scent of blood. Her limbs felt leaden, and a sharp pain twisted through her side. She tried to move, but her arms gave way beneath her.Then she remembered. The fight. The blood. The look on Elara’s face half divine, half monstrous.She turned her head weakly.“Elara " she rasped.But it wasn’t Elara who was beside her.It was Evelyn.Evelyn sat slumped in a chair, her hands stained dark red, her expression unreadable. She didn’t rush to help. She didn’t speak. Her eyes were fixed on the floor cold and still as ash.“You…” Leona coughed. “You left me "“You’ll live " Evelyn replied quietly.There was no warmth in her voice. Just a finality that chilled Leona more than any blade ever could.“You let me bleed out " Leona whispered. “On purpose "Evelyn didn’t deny it.“You killed me " Leona said again, louder this time, fury cracking through her fragile voice.“No " Evelyn said, finally looking up. “You killed yoursel
