Chapter 173: The God in Hiding
Chapter 173: The God in HidingLight.It was the only thing Jaxen could see. It wrapped around him and Sophia, warm and blinding. The sounds of the crumbling mountain and Damon's roar faded into absolute silence.When the light finally dimmed, Jaxen blinked, his vision swimming.They were no longer on the mountain. They were inside a cavernous space—but it wasn't made of rock. The walls were smooth, almost crystalline, glowing with a soft, ambient white light. It felt like standing inside a giant geode.Jaxen tried to stand, but his legs gave out. He collapsed, his chest heaving. His mana was completely gone. His body was a canvas of cuts and bruises.Beside him, Sophia sat up slowly, her eyes wide."Where..." she whispered. "Where are we?""Safe," a voice said. "For now."Jaxen forced his head up.Standing a few meters away was the glowing figure. The light around him was fading, revealing a man. But he wasn't a normal man. He was gaunt, his skin pale and paper-thin, stretched over b
chapter 172: The six disciples
Chapter 172: The Six Disciples Jaxen and Sophia stepped through the black iron gate, the heavy metal groaning shut behind them. The air changed instantly. It was colder here, thinner, laced with a suffocating pressure that made every breath feel like swallowing glass. They moved with caution, their footsteps silent on the ash-covered path, their eyes scanning the jagged rocks and crumbling ruins. They didn't know what they expected to find at the top. But it wasn't this. As they entered a massive, open courtyard carved into the mountain, Jaxen stopped dead in his tracks. They were surrounded. Dark Knights stood on the ledges above, on the ruined pillars, and on the ground ahead. There were six of them in total, each radiating an immense, terrifying pressure. Standing at the front, leaning lazily against a cracked stone wall, was Shadow. He looked up, a wide, predatory grin spreading across his face. "Remember me?" Shadow asked, pushing off the wall. "I missed you."
Chapter 171: The Dark Forest
Chapter 171: The Dark Forest The beasts closed in. Jaxen's fists clenched. His mana was depleted—barely a flicker in his core. The AEONAXIS armor had faded, leaving him in his torn clothes, his body covered in cuts and bruises. Sophia stood beside him, her blade drawn. Her mana was low too, but she was still standing. "Any ideas?" she asked. "Fight until we can't." "That's not a plan." "It's the only one I've got." The first beast lunged—a twisted creature with scales like obsidian and eyes like burning embers. Jaxen met it head-on, his fist connecting with its jaw. The creature staggered but didn't fall. Two more replaced it, snapping at his legs. Sophia cut one down, then another. Her blade flashed in the darkness, carving through flesh and bone. But more kept coming. "There's no end to them!" she shouted. Jaxen punched another beast, sending it flying into a tree. The trunk splintered from the impact. "I noticed!" The horde pressed in. Jaxen and Sophia fough
Chapter 170: Wings of Time
Chapter 170: Wings of Time The chains shattered. Jaxen stood in the center of the cell, the AEONAXIS armor gleaming gold and black. His mana surged, pushing against the walls, cracking the stone. Sophia stared at him. "You broke the chains?" "AEONAXIS armor boosts my stats. The chains couldn't hold me." He turned to her. "We need to move. Now." He grabbed her wrist and pulled her toward the cell door. The lock was reinforced—enchanted steel. Jaxen punched through it, the metal crumpling like paper. The door swung open. --- The dungeon was a maze. Guards rushed toward them, their weapons drawn. Jaxen didn't stop. He moved through them like a force of nature—each punch sending them flying, each kick shattering bone. Sophia followed close behind, her own mana flaring. She wasn't at full strength, but she could still fight. "Left!" she shouted. Jaxen turned, driving his fist into a guard's chest. The man crumpled. They ran through the corridors, past cells filled with prisone
Chapter 169: The Missing
Chapter 169: The Missing Bill Hart sat in his office at Liberty Guild headquarters, staring at the wall. Three days. It had been three days since Jaxen and Sophia had disappeared. No note. No message. No explanation. Just... gone. He had asked around. He had checked their apartments. He had contacted the Hunter's Investigation Association. Nothing. No one had seen them. No one knew where they had gone. First Peter. Now these two. He rubbed his temples, a headache forming. What the hell is happening? --- The door to his office opened. Anthony walked in, his expression grim. His robotic arm gleamed under the light. "We've searched everywhere," he said. "The Grayzone. The outer districts. The dungeon gates. No sign of them." Bill didn't respond. "We've also checked the guild's tracking systems. Their phones are off. Their mana signatures are gone. It's like they vanished." Bill slammed his fist on the desk. "Damn it!" Anthony didn't flinch. He had seen Bill angry before. B
Chapter 168: The King's Truth
Chapter 168: The King's Truth The king's chambers were vast and cold. Jaxen and Sophia stood before the throne, their wrists still bound in chains of golden light. The king sat above them, his expression unreadable. The queen was absent. The advisors were gone. It was just the three of them. "You fought a Dark Knight," the king said. "And you won." Jaxen nodded. "That is no small feat. The Dark Knights are chosen by the goddess herself. They are among the most powerful beings in our world." "I know," Jaxen said. "I fought one." The king studied him. "You are strong. That much is clear. But strength alone is not enough." He leaned forward. "I have a proposition for you." --- The king told them everything. The goddess Salin. The Dark Knights. The war that had raged for centuries. The world that was slowly dying. "She is draining the world's mana," the king said. "Every day, she grows stronger. Every day, our world grows weaker. If she is not stopped, everything will die."
