Chapter 111
A storm of sacred frequency bullets tore through the corridor without pause, blinding white light splitting the air and melting the steel floor plating, leaving glowing red craters along the narrow path leading to the vault chamber. Axel lunged sideways at once, dragging Rena with him, and both of them rolled hard behind the nearest support pillar just as the next volley slammed into the spot they had left a heartbeat earlier.Skreee. Skreee.Sparks of molten metal swept across Axel's cheek, and the sharp smell of ozone stabbed his lungs with every breath he pulled in.The whole corridor shook under the relentless pounding, while the heavy metallic footsteps of the *Oracle Sentinels* grew closer, heavier, and more inevitable by the second."Stay behind me, Rena!" Axel shouted over the roar of gunfire.Rena crouched low beside him, her face pale but her eyes sharp, sweeping every inch of the situation around them. "Behind you where exactly?" she shot back, her voice edged with desperat

Marcus moved faster than Axel expected. The moment the stack of papers landed on his desk, the captain shot to his feet and drew an energy pistol from his hip holster, the muzzle swinging straight toward the ventilation ceiling.A flash of blue light tore through the air and the metal grate exploded in a shower of sparks, the sharp smell of hot ozone filling the room instantly. But when Marcus narrowed his eyes at the hole left by the shot, all that remained was a curl of black smoke drifting away into the shaft."Who's there?" he barked.No answer. Marcus stepped directly beneath the vent, weapon still raised, his gaze sweeping every corner of the room in search of whoever had dared to infiltrate an Ordo officer's office undetected."Come out!" he shouted again. "If you have something to say, show your face!"Silence. Only the hum of the cooling system and the muffled sounds of the base beyond the walls answered him.Meanwhile, deep inside the crossing point of the ventilation shaft,

"We were formed to protect humanity from monsters not to keep them locked away beneath our very headquarters."Captain Marcus’s voice crashed through the room like an explosion cutting straight through the overlapping conversations that filled the space. Even the high-ranking officers who had been hunched over reports looked up sharply. Marcus stood at the head of the table with both hands braced hard against its wooden surface his jaw set tight as his gaze swept over every council member seated around him.Up inside the ventilation shaft Axel froze. He knew that voice. He knew that exact edge of fury. For years Marcus had been the steady one the officer who could think clearly even when bullets and magic tore through the battlefield. Seeing him lose control in front of the entire council made Axel’s chest ache.Grandmaster Henderson younger here than the man Axel knew from the future set his teacup down calmly."Watch your tone Marcus."His voice was not loud and that was exactly wha

Steam still curled upward from the tea on the conference table when Rena hurried to wipe the spill with the cloth hanging from her waist. The dark liquid soaked into the tactical maps and operational reports laid out neatly before the Order’s high command, curling the edges of several pages and blurring the ink in places."I apologize, General," Rena said quickly, keeping her head bowed. "It was an accident.""An accident?" The silver-haired man at the head of the table pushed his chair back hard enough to scrape loudly against the floor. "Those documents took three weeks to compile. Do you know how many people worked on that report?"Rena stayed bent low. The dark shadow that had crept beneath the table had slipped back under her boot, but a sharp burning lingered across her skin. The Light Oracle purification waves flooding the room felt like thousands of hot needles pricking at the Wraith blood running through her veins."I will clean it up right away, General.""If this emergency

The smell of old oil, hot metal, and generator fumes filled the narrow air in the underground detention block of the Order of Jakarta Central Headquarters. The endless hum of machinery vibrated through the concrete walls, a low drone pressing against the ears. In the dim glow of security lights, Axel kept his head bowed as if still bound like every other prisoner, while his fingers worked quickly behind his back. The thin wire he had hidden all this time inside the lining of his shoe sole moved slowly inside the locking mechanism.Click.The sound was nearly swallowed by the generator's roar. The anti-magic cuffs that had clamped around his wrists only moments before finally fell open, and Axel let out a slow breath. Still possible. His body had not fully healed yet, but the skills he had built over years of running from the Order had not faded.In the cell across from him, Rena leaned against the wall and caught the shift instantly. "You make it look too easy," she whispered.Axel ra

"He already knew... My father knew about you even before either of us was born Rena."Axel's voice was soft beneath the steady hum of the old generator in the corner of the bunker. His fingers tightened around the yellowed sheet of paper in his hand. The red ink had dried years ago yet the words were still perfectly clear.^Protect the daughter of the Wraith clan. She is the key.^Rena stood a few steps away her gaze shifting between the writing and the portrait sketched across the page. It was her face. There was no doubt at all."How is this possible?" she whispered. "I wasn't even born when this was written."Axel lifted his head. His face was still pale from the poison moving through his veins but his eyes held more life than they had only minutes before."It means my father knew everything. About time travel. About the Archon. About you.""About my bloodline?" Rena's voice rose.Axel nodded slowly.They both went back through the stack of documents scattered across the old wooden
