CHAPTER 50
“Tell me everything you know about this Aurethrion aside from yours and the uglies’ backstory,” Draven said, his voice low but firm.There was no urgency in his tone, yet the command behind it was unmistakable.The Vaelcryx walked closely behind him as they moved through the strange field of emerald-like grass stretching endlessly before them. Each blade shimmered faintly, glowing with a soft green light that reflected off the ground like a quiet mirror.The illumination spread across the land in a calm, steady glow. It was bright enough to reveal every detail of the terrain, yet gentle enough that it did not strain the eyes. The light felt unnatural, almost alive, hovering quietly over the endless stretch of grass.“The Aurethrion yields magical powers,” the Vaelcryx began carefully.Its voice dropped lower, almost to a whisper.“Not regular magic… it yields ancient magic.”Draven raised a brow slightly, but his pace remained unchanged.“He has ears everywhere,” the Vaelcryx added qu
CHAPTER 49
CHAPTER 49In the physical realm…“General Shaw!!” The prime minister’s voice cut sharply through the tense air.A hologram flickered to life, projecting his stern visage with an icy glow.“How’s the progress with the task?” the prime minister demanded, his tone carrying that mix of authority and impatience that could make grown men falter.General Shaw ran a hand through his hair, the weight of his failure pressing heavily on his shoulders. “Still no trace of this weapon. I plan to catch him with his own trap, but he’s yet to act on it.”Rage, desperation and frustration clinging on him.BOOM!!He slammed his fist onto the polished surface of the desk with a force that rattled pens, papers, and a few scattered devices. The echo of the impact bounced off the walls, a sharp percussion to the tense room.The prime minister’s laughter rang out. Sharp. Cruel. Almost theatrical, like Shaw’s frustration was nothing but a performance for his amusement.“Shaw,” the prime minister sneered, his
CHAPTER 48
“Since I got the Ozyrath’s power after killing it, then if I kill the Aurethrion, I’d have his powers too,” Draven thought.The realization did not excite him. It settled into him like strategy. Like inevitability.Before him, the Vaelcryx remained on one knee, its head bowed low, shoulders tense, awaiting judgment. The silence between them stretched thin, sharpened by the faint hum of lingering energy in the Spirit Realm.Draven swayed the knife slowly in his hand. The blade caught what little light lingered in the air, reflecting it in thin, cold flashes across the fractured ground. Each subtle movement produced a faint metallic whisper. Clean. Controlled. Final.The Vaelcryx shut its eyes.It was ready, not out of courage, not out of loyalty. But out of acceptance.It had gambled everything on Draven. If this was the cost, then so be it.Suddenly, it heard footsteps. Steady footstep, not approaching. Receding.The Vaelcryx’s brows tightened. It remained still for a heartbeat longer
CHAPTER 47
In the Spirit Realm....The creatures stood frozen, their dark forms still radiating the stench of decay. The smoke that had once curled around their armored bodies thinned into nothingness. Their presence had carried weight, authority, menace. Now that weight had collapsed into silence.They were taken aback.“ვინ ხარ შენ?”“Who are you?” the Vaelcryx interpreted, its voice low, cautious.Draven did not answer immediately.He exhaled sharply. A hum of white smoke escaped his lips, drifting into the air like a final warning.“Too bad you’d figure it out on the other side.”SLING!!!The sound was clean and precise.Before comprehension could settle in their minds, their heads separated from their bodies. One by one, they fell, striking the ground with heavy, hollow thuds. There was no drawn-out struggle. No desperate retaliation. Just execution.Draven had moved faster than perception itself.The spear he had taken from the first creature sliced through the air with surgical certainty.
CHAPTER 46
Back in Acaryn…GUSH!!!A violent rush of icy water crashed against Abigail’s face.Her body jolted upright against the chair, lungs seizing as the water forced its way into her nostrils. She coughed violently, choking, struggling to draw breath as droplets streamed down her cheeks and into her mouth. The cold bit into her skin, sharp and merciless.She opened her eyes in reflex—only for water to sting them instantly. She squeezed them shut again, lashes clumping together, vision swimming in a blur of light and shadow.Her chest heaved. Air…..she needed air.Instinctively, she tried to lift her hand to wipe her face. But she couldn’t.Her wrists were bound tightly against the arms of the chair. Thick restraints dug into her skin, unforgiving. Her ankles were secured the same way, fastened to the legs of the chair. She wasn’t just tied—she was anchored.Her vision wavered again, the room spinning faintly. Seconds passed. The blur steadied. Shapes sharpened.The Capo stood before her.A
CHAPTER 45
The intensity of her scream reverberated through the air like a living force. Draven’s grip around her neck tightened, brutal and absolute, veins in his arms taut with controlled strength. Her once-glowing emerald eyes had darkened, green brilliance extinguished, replaced with swirling shadows. Dark lines raced across her skin as if her very life force tried to escape. Her gaze pooled with unspeakable darkness, pressure from Draven’s grip pressing into her very soul.CRACK!Her skin fractured like shattered glass. Fissures tore along her body, shedding layers until her true form was revealed.She was no longer the radiant, human-like figure she pretended to by illusion. Her skin was deep purple, rough and scaly, mottled with ridges and scars. A stench of rotting meat hung off her, sour and pungent, rising like a cloud of decay. She retained some semblance of humanity, but twisted into grotesque distortion. Her eyes were inverted, perched where her mouth should have been. Her nose flar
