Chapter 26 - Transformation And Truth
Chapter 26Adrian screamed.The sound was raw, primal less human, more something else. Void energy swirled around him like a storm trying to devour everything in its path. His body convulsed on the shattered altar, black cracks crawling across his skin as if the world itself were trying to tear him apart from the inside.“Adrian!” Seraphina knelt beside him, her hands glowing with healing light, sweat pouring down her face as she fought to stabilize his pulse. “Stay with me. Just breathe!”But he couldn’t. Every breath ignited fire in his lungs. Every heartbeat shattered another barrier inside him.Aurelius’s voice echoed in his mind, calm but grim. This is no longer a curse… It’s a metamorphosis. The Void Constitution was never meant to be sealed it was feared. Because few survive it.“Then why is he still fighting it?” Seraphina whispered, sensing the ancient spirit’s presence.Because most minds shatter under the pressure. But Adrian... his mind is different. Structured. Scientific
Chapter 25 - The Rescue Mission
Chapter 25The echo of Seraphina’s scream hadn’t faded before Adrian launched forward, power flaring violently around him. He didn’t care about the wards, the cultists, or the risk to his cursed body. All he saw was her Seraphina, bound, broken, and bleeding at the center of a ritual meant to tear his very soul apart.“Stop the ritual!” Adrian roared, dark energy crackling along his arms like unstable lightning.The lead cultist the gaunt man with inked runes all over his face didn’t flinch. Instead, he offered Adrian a chilling smile.“You’re right on time, Void Heir. She knew you’d come. She made sure of it.”Adrian froze for a fraction of a second. “What…?”The man gestured toward Seraphina’s trembling form. “Ask her.”Seraphina lifted her head slowly, her face pale but her eyes bright with unwavering fire. “I had to, Adrian… They were going to come for you anyway. This was the only way I could protect you and learn how to stop them.”Adrian’s heart twisted. “You let yourself be ba
Chapter 24 - Into The Forbidden Realm
Chapter 24The entrance to the Shadow Drake’s lair loomed before them dark, cracked open like a wound in the earth, its jagged edges slick with ancient, obsidian dust. The air was unnaturally cold, not from weather, but from the lingering presence of ancient death. Every breath stung like frost in their lungs.Adrian stepped forward, brushing his fingers against Seraphina’s blood-stained cloak where it lay abandoned on the stone. The fabric still held traces of her spiritual essence faint, desperate, and laced with pain.“She was here,” he murmured. “And she wasn’t alone.”Arlena crouched beside him, examining the disturbed ground. “Multiple sets of footprints. Some wearing spirit-imbued boots. Skilled. Coordinated.”“They weren’t just passing through,” Adrian added. “They came for something. Or someone.”Behind a jagged boulder, Lyrixa crouched low, watching. She tightened her grip on Stormveil’s reins, heart thundering. The moment she saw Seraphina’s cloak, something twisted inside
Chapter 23 - The Search Begins
Chapter 23Adrian didn’t wait for permission.The moment his strength returned, he shattered the reinforced crystal walls of the medical quarantine chamber with a burst of concentrated spiritual force. Crystal shards scattered across the room, triggering alarms throughout the academy.His breath was ragged, body trembling. He hadn’t fully recovered. The black energy still coiled deep inside him, pulsing like a heartbeat. But he didn’t care.Seraphina was out there. Alone. And in danger.“Aurelius,” Adrian growled, slipping on his cloak and retrieving a short-bladed staff he’d forged in secret, “tell me exactly how bad this could get.”The ancient voice echoed grimly in his mind. You’re still unstable. The curse lingers like poison beneath the surface. If you overuse your power again, your core could collapse. Worst case…“I die. Yeah. Got it.” He tied the cloak tighter. “I’ll take the risk.”You’re starting to sound like a true dragon-blood, boy, Aurelius muttered, almost proud.As he
Chapter 22 - Unexpected Consequences
Chapter 22Silence gripped the arena in the aftermath of Adrian's victory.Smoke curled from the fractured arena floor where Travis lay unconscious, his proud armor shattered, his dragon aura extinguished. But no one looked at him anymore.All eyes were on Adrian writhing, gasping, collapsing in a pool of dark, pulsing energy.The black tendrils of corrupted power lashed wildly around him, cracking stone and warping the air. His veins glowed with unnatural light. His scream echoed through the arena, raw and inhuman.“Adrian!” Seraphina’s voice rang out, shrill and panicked.She rushed into the battlefield, pushing past stunned officials. Ignoring protocol and gasps of protest, she dropped to her knees beside him and summoned her healing aura, flooding his body with golden warmth.But the dark energy resisted.Her magic hissed on contact, unable to penetrate the swirling void that consumed him from within. Her eyes filled with tears. “Why isn’t it working?!”In Adrian’s mind, Aurelius
Chapter 21 -The Dual Of Truth
Chapter 21The morning sky over the Imperial Arena was heavy with tension. Magical runes shimmered across the stone walls, reinforcing the stadium against the sheer force that was expected to be unleashed.Adrian stood in silence behind the gates, his cloak fluttering lightly with the breeze. The muffled sound of cheers, jeers, and chanting rose from beyond, echoing like the heartbeat of a beast waiting to devour him.Aurelius's voice whispered calmly in his mind. Focus not on their noise, but on your purpose. Observe. Adapt. Survive.“Easier said than done,” Adrian muttered, his hands trembling not from fear but from restraint.Outside, the audience swelled with excitement. Nobles from across the empire filled the stands, their ornate carriages parked beneath rows of royal banners. The Emperor himself watched from a high, floating dais an enigmatic figure wrapped in golden robes and guarded by high-mages.Seraphina sat in the front row, wringing her hands. Beside her, Lyrixa watched
