C248: Dawn of the Falcon’s Invitation
C248: Dawn of the Falcon’s InvitationAt night, the entire Duke’s castle blazed like a second skyline above Angora City, its towers and battlements lit in a dazzling display of magical illumination that made the horizon look like it had been painted by some overenthusiastic artist with a love for grand gestures, and although the citizens below treated the spectacle as a rare, wondrous event, the Lytaians among them saw it as nothing more than the usual extravagant display of wealth that the powerful always insisted on calling “culture.”The drawbridge stayed lowered for the entire evening, inviting guests to roll in with gold-trimmed carriages and majestic horses that clattered and snorted with the kind of proud impatience that only the extremely rich can afford, and every arrival triggered a ripple of astonished whispers among the curious crowds gathered along the castle walls, because even in a city built on money, prestige, and illusion, a spectacle still feels
C247 — Moonlit Invitation
C247 — Moonlit InvitationThe first light of dawn had barely dared to touch the windows when Elias stirred from his bed, the lingering sleep still clinging to him like a stubborn shadow, and then Sheina entered his room with a careful, almost reverent gait, carrying a white letter sealed with a wax emblem in red and gold, shaped like some predatory feline whose gaze seemed to follow him even from the seal. Her hands were extended forward, palms steady, as if the letter were a sacred relic rather than merely a piece of paper.“A soldier arrived at the break of dawn,” Sheina said softly, “and delivered this message directly to you.”Elias took the letter from her with a slow, deliberate motion, and the weight of it felt heavier than it should have been, as if the paper itself carried the pressure of the world it came from. “Did he say anything else?” he asked, his voice low, cautious, because he knew how often the smallest detail could change everything.
C246 — 4th Software Update
C246 — 4th Software UpdateElias slowly opened his eyes, as if waking from a dream that had dragged him through an endless corridor of time, and he had no idea how long he had been out. The world felt slightly different, not in a dramatic way, but in the quiet way that suggests something inside him had shifted without asking for permission.A voice, calm and composed, floated into his awareness from somewhere beyond his immediate surroundings, pulling him back to the waking world like a gentle tug on a heavy chain.[Hello, Elias. I am Nexus-1, and I am here to serve you. Ask anything you wish, and I will answer to the best of my ability.]The disembodied voice of his personal AI assistant reached his ears, steady and clear, and he realized that he was no longer trapped in the dull silence that usually accompanied such moments.He stared down at his own body, focusing on the currents of mana that ran through his veins, and found himself th
C245: The Magic Tower Vote
C245: The Magic Tower Vote Title: The Sphere of Secrets Michael sat in silence for a long moment, his mind turning over every angle of the situation like a blade being sharpened on a whetstone, because he knew that the HammerStone Company’s intentions were not simply about expansion, but about domination, and he was not the kind of person who enjoyed being used as a pawn in someone else’s game. "The HammerStone company wants to make Angora City a part of its Golden Road?" he asked quietly, his voice calm but loaded with the weight of the implication, because he understood that if HammerStone gained control, the entire region would become a battlefield of commerce, and the people would be the ones paying the price in blood and ruin. Trakius exhaled, a heavy sound that carried the taste of exhaustion and reluctant acceptance, as if he were admitting to a truth he hated. "Not just that," he said, his tone sinking into grim ser
C244 — Proof of the Reason
C244 — Proof of the ReasonMichael’s expression shifted into something that looked very close to genuine shock, which was rare enough to qualify as a public spectacle. He had always assumed he was the only person in the entire Falcon region attempting to build a Golden Road, because the original had been abandoned and forgotten for so long that even the dust seemed embarrassed to remember it.So when Trakius said, with calm certainty, that other people were building Golden Roads too, Michael’s mind briefly stalled, as if the gears inside him had been greased with denial.“They are building their own Golden Roads?” he asked, disbelief sharp enough to slice through the air, because the idea that anyone else could be thinking along the same lines as him felt like a cosmic insult.Trakius moved his Bishop piece to the corner with the slow, deliberate precision of someone who had already mastered patience and was now practicing boredom.“Yes,”
C243 — Echoes of the Tower
C243 — Echoes of the TowerMichael let the Rebornians take care of the matters in the new Department Store and journeyed out to the city in search of the Magic Tower, which was not difficult to find because he only had to lift his gaze upward and watch the towering structure pierce the heavens like a black spear driven through the clouds.When he arrived at the base, he was greeted by the same unsettling sight that always made his skin prickle, the strange black material that composed the entire tower. The structure felt familiar, as if it had been lifted straight from the world of Kingsbridge City and placed here with barely any differences, like a mirrored reflection that had been slightly altered by a careless hand. The only noticeable distinction was that the tower in this region was richer with Water mana, the kind that seeped through the air like a cold, wet breath, saturating everything with an aquatic chill.The entrance itself was a grand archway,
