Chapter 197 – The Shattered Sky
The storm raged unchecked, swallowing the battlefield in its hunger. Soldiers who moments ago had stood frozen in awe were now fleeing in blind terror, their cries drowned beneath the endless roar of the abyss that Darius’s death had unleashed.The earth cracked open like glass beneath Kael’s feet, glowing veins of void fire spreading across the land like diseased roots. The sky itself twisted, stars warping and collapsing inward, the constellations breaking apart as if the heavens were being devoured.Kael, half conscious, clung to Alira’s arm as she struggled to drag him toward safety. Every step she took was agony her muscles screamed, her lungs burned but she would not let him fall. “Stay with me,” she pleaded, her voice trembling with desperation. “Stay with me, Kael, you can’t leave me now.”Kael’s head lolled against her shoulder, his eyes unfocused, lips pale. The weight of the battle, the wounds, the fire that had burned through his veins it had stripped him down to a fragile
Chapter 196 – The Kneeling Shadow
The smoke cleared slowly, drifting like torn veils across the battlefield. Silence pressed down, heavy and suffocating, broken only by the groans of wounded soldiers who dared not lift their eyes. All eyes were fixed on the center, where two figures remained one standing, one kneeling.Kael’s body shook violently, blood dripping from a dozen wounds, his blade trembling in his hand. He was the one still on his feet. Barely. His knees threatened to buckle with every heartbeat, but he forced himself upright, his chest rising and falling in shallow, ragged breaths.Darius was on one knee, his sword plunged into the earth to keep himself from collapsing completely. Black blood pooled beneath him, steam rising from his wounds where Kael’s unstable fire had scorched him deeper than the Void had ever allowed. His breath came in sharp, furious hisses, and his eyes once calm pools of arrogance now burned with hatred and disbelief.“You…” Darius rasped, his voice hoarse, almost broken. “You shou
Chapter 195 – Shattered Bonds
The battlefield seemed to vanish under the weight of the storm unleashed between Kael and Darius. The air crackled with unnatural energy, and the soldiers who had dared creep closer were flung back once more, tossed like leaves before a hurricane. Silence fell for an instant, broken only by the grinding of steel against steel as the brothers locked blades, each refusing to yield.Their eyes met Kael’s burning with fury and defiance, Darius’s glinting with cold conviction. The pressure of their clash carved a crater beneath their feet, and with a final shove, both were blasted apart, their bodies soaring through the air before landing with thunderous crashes.Kael’s lungs heaved, his chest aflame, every muscle screaming at him to stop. But he stood. He could not falter, not now. His sword trembled in his grasp, shadow fire burning along its edge, unstable but alive.Darius rose with a predator’s grace, void flames licking his armor, his smile cruel and calm. “You’ve lasted longer than
Chapter 194 – The Duel of Titans
The battlefield vanished from Kael’s mind the moment Darius charged. All the chaos, all the blood and screams faded into a blur. There was only the man before him the brother who had betrayed him, the monster who had taken everything, the shadow of what he himself might yet become.Their swords met in a crash that shook the earth. The ground split beneath their feet, shockwaves blasting soldiers backward, tearing banners from poles, extinguishing fires in an instant. Steel screeched against steel, void fire flaring between them in a violent storm. Men nearby were thrown aside, their bodies broken by the sheer force of the impact.Kael’s arms trembled as he held against the crushing weight of Darius’s blow. His brother was stronger, impossibly strong, each strike heavier than mountains. Kael twisted away, void flames sparking as he slashed, his blade carving arcs of shadow through the air. Darius parried effortlessly, his movements precise, almost elegant.“You’ve grown,” Darius said,
Chapter 193 – The Clash of Shadows
The battlefield exploded with chaos the moment the first ranks collided. Shields shattered, spears splintered, and the cries of the dying filled the poisoned wind. Blood turned the soil black, steam rising as the heat of bodies and magic clashed under the crimson sky.Kael tore through the front lines like a storm unchained. His sword burned with a faint violet light, each swing carving arcs of ruin. Armor split, flesh tore, and yet for every enemy he felled, three more surged forward. He was surrounded, drowned in a sea of steel and fury, but the Void surged within him, lending him strength no mortal could match.The voices screamed louder now. Unleash us. Stop holding back. Tear them apart, end this charade of restraint. They are nothing. Darius is nothing. You are more.Kael gritted his teeth, refusing to give himself wholly to the temptation. If he surrendered, if he lost control now, he would burn not only his enemies but his own army as well. Yet the longer he fought, the harder
Chapter 192 – Ashes Before Dawn
The camp was quiet, too quiet for an army on the brink of war. No songs, no laughter, no boasting fireside tales. Only the scrape of whetstones on blades, the creak of worn leather as soldiers shifted uneasily, and the low murmurs of men and women who had seen too much death in too few days. The night itself seemed to hold its breath, the stars veiled behind a blanket of crimson clouds that smothered the moon.Kael walked the rows in silence. His boots pressed into the mud, each step heavy as if the earth itself resisted him. The air was thick with the stench of smoke, sweat, and despair, yet everywhere eyes turned to him eyes filled not with hope, but with a fragile, fearful expectation. He was their commander, their last chance, their reluctant savior. But behind their gaze lingered unease, the kind born of men who had seen him fight with powers no mortal should wield.He stopped near the smoldering remnants of a fire where three young recruits huddled, barely older than boys. One c
