CHAPTER 121
Far away from the subterranean city of the Spires, in the forgotten reaches of the Eastern Rim, the sky turned the color of dried blood.The remote kingdom of Solaria sat nestled between jagged mountain peaks, completely cut off from the rest of the continent. For generations, Solaria had lived in quiet peace. Its people farmed the stony valleys, tended their sheep, and sang old songs about the gods of the wind. They had no great armies. They had no powerful mages. They were simple, peaceful folk who believed the world outside their high mountain pass would leave them alone.They were wrong.The ground beneath the capital city of Solaria began to tremble just after midnight. At first, the villagers thought it was a mild earthquake, a common occurrence in the rocky highlands. But the shaking didn't stop. It grew worse. The stone walls of the houses cracked. Clay pots shattered on kitchen floors. Livestock broke free from their pens, screaming in absolute primal terror, running blindly
CHAPTER 120
The grand obsidian plaza was completely silent. The heavy tension in the air felt thick enough to cut with a knife. Thousands of surface explorers stood with their weapons drawn, while the four peaceful species of the underground city stood tall, ready to defend their home.Lord Vane lowered his ruby-topped cane. His cruel smile never left his face. He looked at the Stonefolk elder, then at the Lizardfolk warriors, and finally at the floating Spiritborn."You think you can stop my private army with spears and rocks?" Lord Vane laughed darkly. He turned his head toward his heavily armed mercenaries. "Kill anyone who moves. Leave the elders alive so they can tell us where the core vault is located.""Wait!" Quinn shouted.Quinn stepped out from the crowd of surface explorers. He pulled his grey hood back, revealing his bruised face and his cold, dead, pitch-black eyes. His heavy Star-Iron gloves hummed with dark energy.Lord Vane stopped laughing. He turned around and stared at Quinn. "
CHAPTER 119
The massive crowd of surface explorers flooded into the grand plaza of the underground city. Heavy boots slammed against the ancient obsidian pavement, echoing loudly between the towering black spires. Shouts, curses, and the clanking of metal weapons shattered the silent, eternal peace that had protected the subterranean world for a thousand years."Look at those obsidian pillars!" a scarred human mercenary yelled, pointing his sword at a massive structure. "There's gold inlaid in the stone! That's pure wealth just sitting there!""Grab everything you can carry!" another treasure hunter shouted, rushing toward a grand stone archway.Quinn stood near the edge of the grand plaza, his dark eyes scanning the vast underground metropolis. The sheer scale of the city was staggering. Bridges of glowing blue energy spanned across bottomless canyons, connecting massive towers that reached up toward the dark cavern ceiling."They're going to destroy it in an hour," Darius said, crossing his arm
CHAPTER 118
The heavy iron gates of Vanguard Academy loomed over the hill. The giant black banners with the blood-red circle fluttered in the afternoon wind.Quinn stared at the entrance. His dark eyes were completely cold."We cannot go inside," Quinn said quietly. His voice did not shake. "The Circle owns the school now. If we walk through those gates, the masked guards will trap us.""Look at the walls," Darius hissed. The red-haired swordsman pointed his finger toward the high stone battlements. "They have magical-scanners posted everywhere. If we get close, the sensors will read our core signatures. They will know we are here instantly.""We lost everything," Luna whispered. Her blue eyes filled with heavy tears. She looked at the grand academy where they had spent months learning magic, fighting side by side. "This was supposed to be our safe place. This was where we were going to expose the King.""The King is the Circle," Felix said. He adjusted his cracked glasses, his hands trembling vi
CHAPTER 117
The wooden floor creaked loudly under Quinn's heavy boots. He pulled his dark cloak tight over his broad shoulders. He hid his bruised face deep inside the grey hood.Darius strapped his glowing green sword to his belt. He smiled, looking completely relaxed. Luna wrapped a thick wool scarf around her neck to hide her face. Felix hugged his leather bag tightly against his chest. His hands were shaking. Bell was already hiding safely inside Quinn’s shadow, taking another nap.They walked down the stairs of the Warm Bear Tavern. The fat tavern keeper was washing a glass behind the wooden bar. He saw them coming. He immediately turned his back. He stared at the wall and pretended they were completely invisible.Quinn pushed the heavy wooden door open. The freezing winter wind hit them in the face.They stepped out into the snowy street. The sun was shining brightly, but the town was not quiet anymore.A loud brass horn blew in the distance.**"Attention all citizens! Halt exactly where yo
CHAPTER 116
The throne room of the Northern Castle was completely silent. It was a terrifying, heavy silence.The heavy oak doors were closed. The white marble floor was covered in wet, dirty snow. The giant crystal chandeliers above gave off a cold, sharp light.At the end of the long room, the King of the North sat on his golden throne. He wore his thick white furs. His face was a mask of pure, solid stone. His icy blue eyes stared straight ahead. He did not blink. He did not move. He looked like a statue of death.Standing in front of the throne was the Guard Captain.The Captain was a massive, strong man, but right now, he was shaking. His shining silver armor was dented and covered in dirt. His white fur cape was burned black at the edges. He breathed heavily. He was terrified.To the left of the Captain stood Doctor Aris. The scientist’s white lab coat was ripped. His thin silver glasses were completely shattered on one side. He looked at the floor. He did not dare to look up at the King.T
