Axel's boot slammed into the Order logistics officer's chest driving the man hard against the dust-choked concrete floor. A stifled groan pushed past gritted teeth. All around them the remains of the outpost outside Nine Towers still reeked of hot metal spilled fuel and drying blood. Axel stared down expressionless as he tore the Aether energy battery from the man's tactical belt moving with a calm far more terrifying than any outburst of rage.

The officer reached for his sidearm. The tip of th

    "You are late, Axel!"Two massive holy light blades clashed directly over Axel’s head the moment the elevator doors slid open. The collision unleashed a wave of white energy that swept through the hall like a storm. Marble pillars on the fifth floor cracked in an instant before shattering into thousands of shards. Stone dust and holy light mixed in the air creating a blinding flash that forced Axel to raise his left arm to shield his face.The floor shook violently beneath his feet.His combat instinct took over instantly. Before his eyes could adjust to the painful brightness he was already diving to the side avoiding the path of energy that had split the ground where he had stood only a split second earlier."You are late, Axel!" Rena’s voice rang out from among the rubble.Her tone remained strong but Axel could hear the exhaustion she was trying to hide beneath her resolve.His gaze found her at once.She knelt amid broken marble her breathing slightly ragged. There were scorch ma

    BOOM!The thirty-centimeter bulletproof glass wall shattered into a shower of crystal shards as Axel slammed into it with his full weight and every ounce of strength left in his body. His bone-crystal spear roared in his grip, channeling a wave of energy that tore through the illusion’s surface and the physical structure beneath it all at once. White dust billowed through the interrogation room, choking the air with the scent of hot metal and burning wiring while glass fragments clattered loudly across the steel floor, bouncing again and again before rolling away.Axel stood tall amid the swirling dust. The burn mark left by the electric collar still seared his neck, the skin beneath the armor collar felt as if pressed against live coals, yet the pain only sharpened his mind and made it clearer than ever."Your cheap little games are over," he growled, his voice low and heavy with threat.No answer came. Only the echo of his own voice bouncing back from the room as it began to lose it

    "Forgive me, Axel... I have no other choice but to trade your life for my freedom."The voice echoed slowly inside the cramped interrogation room, yet its weight felt heavier than any explosion Axel had ever faced. Thick glass walls split the room, glowing blue light from cyber panels lining every surface, and behind that glass stood someone who looked exactly like Rena. Her gaze was cold and certain, no flicker of doubt anywhere. In her right hand she held a small remote detonator blinking with a slow red pulse.Something clenched tight around Axel's chest instantly. The spatial distortion inside the elevator had torn them apart. Now he was trapped alone on the third floor of the Ninth Tower, right in the middle of a psychological simulation designed to break an intruder's mind from the inside out. But the most dangerous thing here was not the room. It was not the Order's technology. It was the simple fact that the voice behind the glass sounded so painfully real."You would actually

    "Axel, stay where you are!"The concrete floor beneath their feet vanished in an instant. The cold gray surface faded like mist swept away by wind, replaced by a transparent expanse revealing endless darkness below. From an immeasurable depth, millions of black hands reached upward, moving in perfect unison as if the entire chasm had come alive and waited for them to fall. Faint howls drifted up from below, soft at first then growing louder until it felt like something was scraping the back of his skull.Axel glanced over his shoulder. Rena stood pale beneath the corridor’s dim light, her eyes fixed straight down at the same illusory abyss. Her shoulders were tight and her fingers trembled faintly though she tried to hide it. The psycho-active frequency waves emitted by the iron walls still throbbed in the air. The vibration was subtle, barely felt, yet strong enough to force open the deepest corners of a person’s mind. Axel could feel it. It wasn’t physical pressure. It was something

    The sharp tip of Axel’s bone-crystal spear moved as fast as a dark flash, barely visible to the naked eye. The blade pierced straight into the nape of an Order patrol robot, severing its main optical cable before the machine could send any warning signal. A brief spark of blue electricity flared up, then was immediately swallowed by the thick layer of shadow enveloping the spearhead. The metal body lost all power and crashed onto the floor with a soft sound that quickly faded into the silence of the underground corridor.Axel stayed still for several seconds, making sure no other security unit had responded. His gaze swept carefully over every corner of the area ahead, scanning for any possible danger that might emerge suddenly from the darkness.“They have tightened security across the entire sector,” Rena whispered sharply from behind a cracked concrete pillar. Her eyes moved quickly, tracking the patrol path shown on the

    "This... is impossible," Rena whispered, her eyes fixed unblinkingly on the holographic screen that now filled the room. Beside her anatomical model, rows of numbers and percentages continued to move endlessly; data regarding organ synchronization and energy stability displayed a compatibility rate that was far too high and perfect, making her chest feel tight and heavy.The digital blueprint floating above the cylindrical container spun slowly, projecting layer after layer of a design so intricate it seemed almost unbelievable. Lines of blue energy formed the structure of a massive machine named ^Void Nova Engine^, and at the center of the diagram lay a single point that glowed far brighter than the rest. That point connected directly to the anatomical structure of Rena’s body, piercing straight into her heart.Holographic light reflected off their faces, which had suddenly frozen in place. The sounds of battle that had previously filled the corridor seemed to fade away, drowned out
