2025-05-27 03:00:39Chapter 81: The Stone That Bends Time
At dawn’s gentle insistence, Thrain of Ironhearth awoke with a hammering throb in his skull—as though the forge of his doubts had been struck all night by the anvil of revelation.He could scarcely trust the memory that lingered from the day before. Had he, a son of the stonelore dwarves, truly been shown a path to summon stone from ether and bind it in hours? If not for his innate dwarven clarity of mind, he might have dismissed the entire exchange with Elias and his arcane brethren as a mirage conjured by exhaustion and foolish hope.A stone wall wrought in mere days? By all accounts of rune, measure, and labor, such a feat defied natural law. Yet Elias had spoken it plainly—no hesitation, no embellishment—and invited him, along with the other Ironhearth dwarves, to witness the sacred workings behind this so-called “concrete.”As the sun stretched her golden limbs across the ashen terrain of the Ashed Lands,

Chapter 149: Clash of Future Thrones – The Covenant of Silent Lions
Chapter 149: Clash of Future Thrones – The Covenant of Silent LionsA tense silence flooded the chamber like a fog of smoke caught between power and pretense. Every gaze fixed unblinkingly upon Holloway's iron-hearted patriarch, Elias’s grandfather—Yze Holloway. The air shimmered faintly with the weight of unspoken suspicions, each elder mogul locked in mental warfare, trying to grasp the enigmatic twist in Yze’s latest maneuver.The idea that he—the legendary Holloway Lion, master of monopolies and shadow broker of economies—would willingly step back from a once-in-a-lifetime conquest like the Golden Road… it bordered on heresy. This wasn't just unexpected. It was unthinkable.The other conglomerate heads, all wolves in their own right, concealed their astonishment with the grace of seasoned predators, but inside? Their thoughts churned like a maelstrom. Every one of them had shared scars from battles lost to Yze. This lion didn’t retreat. He conquered. S
Chapter 148: The Gilded Artery of Ashen Revival
Chapter 148: The Gilded Artery of Ashen RevivalOnce upon a time, nestled in the throbbing heart of the Falcon region, there existed a bustling nexus of ambition and endless exchange—a place so vibrant with mercantile fervor it earned the fabled title of the Golden Road. Once, this shining artery coursed with the lifeblood of commerce, threading silks from far deserts, spices harvested under crimson moons, and enchanted relics wrested from the vaults of forgotten civilizations. It was more than a market—it was the stage where dreamers gambled futures, and kings of coin were born.Among those dreamers stood Yze Holloway, patriarch of the richest family to ever lay claim to the Falcon region’s legacy. Yet he hadn’t always sat upon his throne of opulence. No—Yze began as nothing more than a dust-covered peddler, dragging his wares across continents on foot. Silks stitched by moonlight, spices potent enough to awaken third sight—these were his currency as he scrabbled
Chapter 147 – The Covenant of Titans: Fires Lit Beneath the Golden Road
Chapter 147 – The Covenant of Titans: Fires Lit Beneath the Golden RoadDeep within the heart of the Falcon region, nestled in a secured and discreet location where whispers of power echoed louder than any wind, an ancient gathering was quietly underway. The table they sat around was not just a piece of furniture—it was a polished obsidian relic carved in a perfect circle, radiating an aura of unspoken authority. These weren’t ordinary elders playing a friendly round of cards over a pitcher of ale; these were titans cloaked in the flesh of age—wrinkled, slow in gait, backs slightly hunched from decades of conquest. And yet, in their eyes, something unyielding still burned.It wasn’t just stubbornness.It was fire. Raw, undiluted hunger.Their hair, now faded into shades of silver, white, or none at all, whispered of time’s relentless march, but their gazes still burned with the same ferocity that once conquered cities through trade wars and corpor
Chapter 146: Echoes Beneath the Shattered Peaks — Orcus in Ruin and Roar
Chapter 146: Echoes Beneath the Shattered Peaks — Orcus in Ruin and RoarOnce hailed as the shimmering jewel nestled at the faultline between the Falcon and Queens regions, Orcus Town had once flourished like a wildfire of commerce and ambition. It had long stood as a beacon of mercantile ferocity—a place where merchants, traders, and entrepreneurs from far and wide clashed in spirited economic duels, each desperately striving to carve out their own slice of fame and fortune within the fabled Wet Market. This wasn't just any marketplace—it was a vortex of opportunity where thousands of feet trampled daily, and reputations were forged or shattered by the position of a stall or the loyalty of a passing crowd.Occupying the central plaza of this teeming hive of commerce was considered the pinnacle of prestige. To claim that sacred space—and more importantly, to retain it against rivals—was a mark of excellence that elevated a company’s status across the realm. It was
Chapter 145: Echoes of Blades and Burdens — The Queen's Crucible Unfolds
Chapter 145: Echoes of Blades and Burdens — The Queen's Crucible UnfoldsThe sun dipped low behind the golden spires of Lyta Nation’s skyline, casting elongated shadows upon the cobbled streets where two figures walked in calm synchrony. Elias, heir to the mighty Holloway dynasty, and Yuna of the Montgomery line — once worlds apart, now sharing a fragile thread of destiny — strolled through the capital’s heart with a casual air that masked the gravitational pull between them.Trailing just a few paces behind, two mischievous observers whispered in playful conspiratorial tones. Nestled in the delicate arms of the ever-enigmatic Layla, the tiny, fluffy Bubbles wriggled excitedly, his voice barely above a whisper."Look there, madame. Your instincts never fail. They drift into each other's orbit without the faintest push from us,” Bubbles murmured, ears twitching gleefully.Layla’s laughter, soft yet brimming with impish delight, fluttered like silk
Chapter 144: Echoes Between Lifetimes — A Celestial Reunion Beneath Steel Skies
Chapter 144: Echoes Between Lifetimes — A Celestial Reunion Beneath Steel SkiesElias stood frozen, his thoughts spiraling into a whirlpool of disbelief and wonder. His gaze, wide-eyed and unblinking, remained locked on the girl before him—no, the woman who had once dominated global stages as the unrivaled queen of K-pop in his past life. To see her again, reincarnated into the very same world as him, made every breath he took feel surreal, as if reality itself had been bent and rewoven by unseen hands.Yuna—now Montgomery—finished the final note of her impromptu performance, and with elegance born of years spent under the relentless eyes of the public, she bowed to the crowd. Though her heart pounded with uncertainty, her steps were poised and her retreat flawless, like the final flourish of a seasoned illusionist exiting the stage. Her every movement shimmered with practiced charisma.As she departed the stage, her eyes rose to meet Elias’s. With a soft
