The thick white mist enveloping the void slowly faded and vanished, leaving no trace.

A man with a jawline, eye shape, and facial features identical to Gerry’s stood calmly before him. The man held an Obsidian Fang that was identical in shape, detail, and size to the one in Gerry’s hand.

Gerry reflexively pulled his right foot back, dropping into a tight combat stance with his dagger held horizontally.

"Are you just an illusion created by this place?" Gerry growled, his eyes scrutinizing every

  • A Name Erased From History

    The night was deathly silent inside the old wooden house, hidden deep behind the dense foliage of the mountains.A small campfire crackled in the corner of the room, casting a soft orange glow that illuminated the immediate area. Magnus was fast asleep, drained by exhaustion and the lingering effects of the severe injuries to his meridians. Edgar, the old servant, stood guard near the entrance, his eyes piercing through the darkness outside.Meanwhile, Gerry... could not close his eyes for even a second, having jolted awake from his slumber.The Obsidian Fang beside his bed pulsed rhythmically, releasing waves of constant, warm energy.Suddenly...The Vesper System interface in Gerry's left eye activated on its own. No alarm, no emergency notification.Vesper's visual projector displayed a single line of golden text that made Gerry’s blood run cold:[HOST LOCATION CONFIRMED SECURE.][INITIALIZING SECOND SECRET ARCHIVE PROTOCOL.]Instantly, Gerry's vision turned pitch black. His consci

  • The Servant Who Waiter Thirty Years

    Footsteps echoed, drawing closer within the narrow stone corridor, casting long shadows that followed the dim glimmer along the excavated walls.Gerry immediately spun the Obsidian Fang in his right hand, bracing himself despite the burning agony radiating from his internal organs.Magnus, his body riddled with wounds, forced himself forward to shield Gerry with his remaining strength. "I will hold off whoever is coming..." Magnus muttered, his voice hoarse and trembling violently.The footsteps finally stopped at the edge of the bend. An old man with white hair emerged from the darkness of the hallway. He wore the simple, tattered gray uniform typically donned by the lowestranking workers of the Sterling Clan estate.His hands were empty, holding no weapons. Yet, the moment the old man’s eyes fell upon Gerry, his knees buckled. He collapsed onto the hard ground, tears streaming down the deep wrinkles on his aged face."Young Master..." the old man choked out, his voice heavy with emo

  • Traces Of The Dead

    The underground stone corridor shuddered violently. The thunderous impact of the massive battle on the surface sent shockwaves rumbling down, shaking dust and stone fragments loose from the ceiling.Yet, Gerry paid no mind to the roar of war shaking the earth above.His gaze remained fixed, locked onto the glow of Vesper’s visual projection in his left eye.[TARGET STATUS: ALIVE.][NAME: ELENA ARKANIS.]Gerry’s fingers gripped the Obsidian Fang so tightly his knuckles turned white. His breath hitched, a sound caught in his throat."Impossible..." Gerry whispered, barely audible.Beside him, Magnus stood frozen, his face tight with tension. His aged, battleworn body trembled, not from physical pain, but from the psychological impact of that name."If she is truly alive..." Magnus murmured, his voice quivering, "...then for all these years, we have all been living in a web of lies, woven with terrifying precision."Gerry spun around, grabbing Magnus by the cloak, his eyes burning."Is s

  • The Sterling Clan Battlefield

    The Guardian Captain swung its massive greatsword directly at Alex Sterling’s chest, unleashing a metallic roar that shook the very atmosphere.Ten thousand Forger Guardians simultaneously slammed the hilts of their weapons against the ground.BOOOOOOM!!A physical shockwave exploded violently, felling trees and cracking stone cliffs within a radius of hundreds of meters.Hundreds of elite Black Raven soldiers standing in the rear ranks suddenly trembled. Their faces paled, drained of every drop of blood. They had come to the Forbidden Abyss to hunt a single dying youth.But now... they were forced to face a legion of immortal killing machines that had been dormant for hundreds of years.Alex Sterling slowly raised his primary sword, which emanated a deep red glow. His sharp gaze pierced through the iron barricade, locked onto the figure of Gerry, who was slumped on the ground."I will take the Obsidian Fang from that boy's hands..." Alex cut in, his voice cold, cutting through the ro

  • The Kneeling Legion

    The Guardian Captain swung his greatsword, slicing through the air and unleashing a metallic clang that shook the earth.Ten thousand Forge Guardians stepped forward in unison. The ground around the arena trembled violently. Dust and stone fragments flew into the air, shrouding the entire battlefield.However...The massive metal legion did not charge simultaneously to crush Gerry.Nine thousand, nine hundred, and ninetynine Guardians moved backward in perfect synchronization, forming a largescale circular barricade. They lined the perimeter, leaving a pure dueling space in the center of the arena.The Guardian Captain stepped out alone, plunging the tip of his sword into the concrete floor. An ancient voice, layered with a metallic echo, resonated from behind his bronze helm:"A true Heir... is not tested by the quantity of endless enemies...""...but by the quality of his will and his understanding of the legacy!"Gerry adjusted his stance, raising Obsidian Fang straight ahead, even

  • Borrowing The Enemy's Blade

    The ground continued to tremble violently, never ceasing.Massive fissures, tens of meters long, tore through the surface of the Forbidden Abyss’s forest, creating dark gaps of immeasurable depth.From the darkness of these crevices echoed the sound of countless heavy, metallic footsteps.Each time a steel sole struck the earth, the vibration hammered against the chests of the Black Raven soldiers, leaving them breathless.The Vesper System interface in Gerry’s left eye continuously scrolled red alerts without pause:[LARGESCALE ANOMALY WARNING.][10,000 Forged Guardian Units Ascending to the Surface.]Magnus stepped back, his face drained of all color. "It’s too late..."Alex Sterling, who had been lunging forward to decapitate Magnus and finish off Gerry, suddenly halted his blade midair.It was not out of fear.Rather, it was because he had realized a crucial detail while observing the energy fluctuations around him.His sharp gaze fixed on the glowing patterns of symbols on the gr
