Chapter 101 – The Descent of the Crimson Master
Jerry stared at the reddening rock. “What the hell!” he muttered. The stone seemed to be liquefying, melting like wax under an invisible flame. Shocked expressions crossed the men’s faces as they witnessed the mountain itself begin to groan.Jerry took several steps back. “Move back, everyone!” he ordered with a scream.They scrambled away just in time. The cave front shattered completely, sending jagged shards of rock flying through the air like shrapnel. The men dove for cover; some hit the dirt on their bellies, while others rolled away to avoid being crushed. Through the settling dust, they eyed the site with caution. Only one question burned in their minds: What has the Rebel Master done to himself?“Who is the kitty now?” the Rebel Master asked, letting out a chilling laugh.His voice had transformed; it was thicker, resonant, and carried the cold vibration of steel. He rose from the depths of the shattered cave, his legs still crossed in a meditative pose. The sheer volume of p
Chapter 102 – The Unfettered Spirit
The men nodded, and those who were able began to move. The Rebel Master looked down from his elevated position. “I see people moving,” he noted coldly.Jerry cursed under his breath.The Rebel Master raised his fingers and tapped them together. Instantly, a wall surrounded the soldiers. It was composed of thick, black flames that flickered with unnatural intensity. What started as a spark on the floor grew in two seconds into a towering, fiery barrier. When one of the men attempted to push forward, the fire lashed out at him like a living thing.The men stopped, gasping in a mixture of anger, pain, and surprise. Jerry clicked his teeth in frustration.The Rebel Master chuckled, his voice echoing. “Forgive me for not being a better host. Everyone should just relax. I will attend to each dog one at a time; that way, no one feels left out.” He turned his focus back to Charles. “My dear Charles. Why are you straining so much? You look so uncomfortable. You seem to be in so much pain.”Cha
Chapter 103 – The Fallen Master
Jerry's eyes lit up. "I am not dreaming, am I? Someone pinch me." A soldier standing near Jerry immediately pinched him, and he yelped, "Ouch!"The soldier tried to defend himself. "You said I should..."Jerry cut him off. "I know!"The Rebel Master's face drained of color. He lost control, and suddenly, Charles began descending with terrifying speed. Jerry and the soldier beside him noticed at once. Rushing over, they hurried to catch him. Jerry supported his head while the soldier caught his legs. Charles was having difficulty breathing, but he managed a weak smirk. "Seems I will not be dying today," he gasped.Jerry and the soldier placed him gently on the floor. "Your insides may be fried. I hope they can heal you," Jerry said, a small, relieved smile reaching his eyes."I thought you hated me?" Charles asked pressing his lips together."Not now," Jerry responded simply. "You are my partner, Charles. If you survive this, you will be my partner."Noel had moved back a safe distance
Chapter 104 – The Strategic Burden
When they finally rose, Heali spoke first. "You never told us."Darian replied, "It was not time. I am not eighteen yet; the transformation can be very risky." Jerry said nothing, and no one else responded. Darian exhaled slowly. "I am sorry. But as you can see," he glanced at the broken Rebel Master and back at the men, "not everyone is loyal to the cause of restoring the kingdom of Azariel. Some have their own ambitions." Darian’s voice softened. "I had to reveal myself today because I wanted to save you all. I did not want you to die. I see your commitment, and I treasure it.""For that, we are grateful," Jerry responded on behalf of the soldiers. Cheers erupted among the ranks as they raised their swords high into the air.The Rebel Master tried to crawl away, but Heali stepped directly in his path. "Traitor," the Master spat with great effort.Heali smiled. "I simply bet on the right horse."The Rebel Master clawed at a jagged rock in a bid to hoist himself up. As Darian drew clo
Chapter 105 – The Golden Sovereign
Noel turned to Heali. “You served him until you decided to change camps. And if I had to guess, that was only yesterday. You would know if the Rebel Master is telling the truth or not.”Heali replied solemnly, “The Rebel Master hides many things even from those who are closest and most loyal to him. But, indeed, he does have connections within the palace.”Noel sheathed his sword. The Rebel Master exhaled in visible relief.Noel faced Darian. “I think we have to hold a meeting to deliberate on this.”Darian nodded his head, as did the other men.Like a flash of lightning, Noel turned back to the Rebel Master. Lifting his already sheathed sword, he delivered a crushing blow to the Master's head. A scream of pain escaped the man's lips before he fell on his face.Noel screamed over him, “Do not think your life will get better! I will make sure bitterness is your daily drink until the day you die!”The Rebel Master tried to lift his head without raising the rest of his body. As he did so
Chapter 105 – The Princess and the True Path
" Victory!" Darian yelled again as his eyes scanned through the crowd. His eyes landed on the rebel master who was tied like an animal, still burnt and bruised. His eyes burned with jeolusy and rage. Darian smirked. There was nothing the rebel master could do at the moment but to watch his triumph. Darian raised his hands for a while, even as he let the soldiers cheer and celebrate. Their shouts rang through the field, and even the leaves seemed to be carried by the sheer force of their voices. Charles threw an orange at Jerry, and Jerry laughed. When Jerry did the same, Charles cried out in pain. Noel watched his friend and smiled. Darian was such a great guy. At that moment, the words the Rebel Master had thrown at him—"You are just a worthless sidekick"—rang in his ears. Was that true? he found himself asking in a whisper.Helena was by his side, and he thought she heard it. But when he turned to face her, her attention was elsewhere. Maybe she had not heard anything.When the che
Chapter 107 – The Council of Shadows
Darian knew very well that the words the Rebel Master had spoken were intended to sow discord among friends. Still, he wondered if they had done more than a small amount of damage to Noel. They would have to talk about it soon.Darian could remember the Golden Eagle revealing Noel's true identity to him and telling him to share his powers with Noel. But Darian had resisted then, and right now, he was not changing his mind. The power that looked so awesome to all who saw it—and that now troubled his friend—was the same power that had robbed Darian of many things in life, including a normal childhood. Darian was never truly a child except when he was with his mother, and Noel had no idea what he was actually jealous of. To Darian, Noel was better off without his powers and without knowing his true identity. He could live a normal, ordinary life without the worry that a whole country was trying to hunt him and his family down, just as Darian had experienced his entire life.A hand tapped
Chapter 108 – The Weight of the Crown
Darian considered their words. To him, the thought of torturing the Rebel Master seemed like a way to make him quickly give up his secrets, but hearing that the man had endured a year of agony without breaking made him rethink his strategy.“Is there anything the Rebel Master loves?” Darian asked, leaning in. His eyes searched the faces of his men. They had worked with the Rebel Master for a long time; if he had a weakness, they ought to know it.Jerry cleared his throat. “Darian, there is something I have to tell you about the Rebel Master.” Darian’s ears were itching for something hopeful, but Jerry’s next words seemed to quench that spark. “We actually know very little about him. He always covers his tracks.”Darian leaned back in his seat and ran his hand through his hair.Noel smirked. “Seems this will be harder than we expected.” He turned to Charles. “Charles, you did business with the Rebel Master many times. What does he desire most?”Charles didn’t even have to think before
Chapter 109: The Weight of the Crown
Darian continued, “This ring was emerald then.”Noel frowned. “Darian, I think you are taking this too seriously. I am talking about the fun part of your job. You know, giving speeches and kicking the butt of bad guys?”Darian gave a dry chuckle. “There is nothing fun about my job, Noel. And you are going to listen to me until I finish my tale.”Noel was taken aback, but he maintained his calm.“My mother had to die in my place to keep me safe,” Darian said. “She hid me away while she was captured. My father has been in the custody of Her Holiness for a long time now. I have lost almost everyone I love because of this power, and sometimes I hope nothing bad will happen to you too, because you are close to me.” When Darian reached this point, he fell silent.Noel considered his friend. “I have been jealous of you. Not for long, but when I saw you appear in all that power… I mean, I have known your identity for a while now, but you were awesome that day. And the Rebel Master called me a
Chapter 110 - the itch of truth
The Rebel Master burst into laughter. It was a sad, mocking sound. "I like this. At least I know that no matter what happens to me, Darian's ranks will always harbor brewing chaos."Jerry frowned. "You are so smart, aren't you? I know you want to save your own skin. You are doing everything possible to ensure you stay alive."The Rebel Master clicked his teeth. "I bet it hurts knowing the loyalty code you are breaching by trying to kill me. So, just go back out there with your wine and pour it on some plants. I am not dying today, and I am not dying anytime soon. Send my message to Darian: he better set me up with everything I need. Then, and only then, will I consider lending him the resources I have worked for throughout all my years of leading this army."Jerry slowly poured some wine into a cup and walked toward the Rebel Master, though he was careful not to get too close. The Rebel Master’s eyes widened with horror. "I may be chained, but I bet that if you come any closer, I will
