Chapter 83: Hunters In The Sky
The wind roared past Aurelius's silver wings as he glided between towering clouds.Jacob remained standing, his eyes fixed on the squadron of black wyverns circling them from every direction.There were twenty riders in all.Disciplined.Patient.Not one had rushed to attack.Their leader hovered several dozen meters ahead atop a sleek midnight wyvern. Unlike the others, she wore no heavy armor. A crimson cloak fluttered behind her, and two curved violet blades rested at her hips.She smiled as though greeting old acquaintances."My name is Selene," she repeated, her voice carrying effortlessly through the sky. "Commander of the Crimson Covenant."Aurelius let out a low rumble."I know who you are."Selene inclined her head respectfully."An honor to finally meet the last Celestial Dragon.""You've been looking for me?""For years."Her smile widened."But today..."Her emerald eyes settled on Jacob."...you're not my objective."Jacob stepped forward."So you've come to capture me."
Chapter 82 The First Age
Dawn broke over Skyrest.Golden sunlight spilled across the mountain peaks, washing away the scars of the previous night's battle. Smoke still drifted from damaged buildings, but the village was alive once more. Blacksmiths repaired broken weapons. Mages reinforced the shattered walls. Children carried supplies alongside soldiers.Life continued.Jacob stood at the edge of the eastern platform overlooking the endless mountain range.For the first time since arriving in this world...He had a destination.The Second Vault.But before that journey began, another weighed heavily on his mind.The truth.Footsteps approached behind him."You barely slept."Jacob smiled faintly without turning around."Neither did you."Adam leaned against the stone railing beside him."I figured the future king would need someone to remind him to eat."Jacob chuckled."I'm not a king.""Maybe not."Adam shrugged."But you're still my friend."Those simple words settled warmly inside Jacob's heart.So much
Chapter 81: Second Vault
The council chamber descended into absolute silence.The young scout remained kneeling on the crystal floor, his breathing ragged as blood dripped from several deep wounds across his armor.Elias hurried to his side."Healer!"Within moments, two elderly women dressed in white robes entered the chamber. Soft green mana flowed from their palms, surrounding the scout's battered body.His breathing steadied.But the fear in his eyes remained.Alaric stepped forward."Tell us everything."The scout swallowed hard before speaking."Our patrol was stationed near the Ashen Highlands...""We discovered ruins that shouldn't exist."He paused, his hands trembling."They weren't there yesterday."Jacob exchanged a glance with Adam."They just... appeared?"The scout nodded."The ground split open.""A temple rose from beneath the earth.""The entrance..."He hesitated."It bears the Crown of Seven."Jacob instinctively touched the Origin Core beneath his shirt.The crystal inside his chest respo
Chapter 80 The Council Of Seven
For several long moments after the portal vanished, no one moved.The battlefield lay in ruins.Collapsed watchtowers dotted the mountainside. Entire sections of the eastern wall had crumbled under the weight of the battle. Fires burned across the valley, casting an orange glow over the broken stone.The silence felt almost unnatural after hours of war.Then a child cried.The spell was broken.Healers rushed toward the wounded.Warriors searched the rubble for survivors.Mages began repairing the fractured barrier surrounding Skyrest.The village had survived.Barely.---Jacob remained standing where the Sovereign had disappeared.His mind replayed the final question over and over."Can humanity truly be saved... without becoming what I became?"He didn't have an answer.Not yet.A gentle hand rested on his shoulder.It was Elias."Come.""The Council is waiting."Jacob looked up."The Council?"Elias nodded."They've watched everything.""I suppose they can no longer remain hidden.
Chapter 79: The Price Of Freedom
Millions.Jacob stood frozen beneath the night sky, his gaze fixed on the endless web of black chains stretching beyond the horizon.Each chain represented a life.A choice stolen.A future rewritten.The sheer scale of it was almost impossible to comprehend.His hands trembled.Not from fear.From realization.The Sovereign hadn't conquered a nation.He had conquered free will itself.---Darius remained on his knees.Tears streamed down his face as memories long buried clawed their way back to the surface."My daughter...""My wife...""I..."His voice broke."I remember..."For the first time since the duel had begun, emotion returned to his eyes.Not rage.Not loyalty.Confusion.Grief.Hope.The black chain around his neck flickered violently.---The surrounding legionnaires shifted uneasily.Several instinctively reached toward their own necks.Though they couldn't see the chains, something inside them had changed.One soldier whispered,"What... was that feeling?"Another lowe
Chapter 78:TheFirst Stand
The black portal expanded until it dominated the night sky.Its edges crackled with dark lightning, while an endless tide of crimson mist poured into the valley below.The three moons disappeared behind its shadow.For a moment...It seemed as though the world itself had stopped breathing.Then...The first soldier stepped through.He was nearly eight feet tall, clad in jet-black armor covered in glowing crimson runes. His helmet concealed his face completely, leaving only two burning red eyes visible beneath the visor.He carried a spear taller than a tree.Then another soldier emerged.And another.Within seconds, dozens stood silently before the portal.No battle cries.No marching chants.No wasted movement.Only absolute discipline.Jacob frowned."They're different."Captain Rowan nodded grimly."They're not cultists.""What are they?"Elias answered quietly."The Sovereign Legions."The name alone caused the veteran warriors of Skyrest to stiffen."I've only read about them," R
