Chapter 58
The broken pieces of the heavy wooden door lay on the cold stone floor. The medical ward was completely silent.High Inquisitor Malphas stood in the ruined doorway. He was a man who had fought in a hundred magical wars. He had killed rogue mages, dark witches, and giant beasts. He wore the thickest, strongest holy armor in the entire kingdom. But right now, his hands were shaking.Malphas looked at the boy sitting on the edge of the broken bed. Adam Cook did not have a weapon. He was not wearing armor. He was bare-chested, wearing only simple dark pants.Yet, Malphas felt a terrible, crushing weight pressing down on his chest. It was not a spell. Adam was not doing anything. The heavy pressure was just coming from Adam’s simple presence."I think," Adam whispered again, his voice echoing inside Malphas’s brain, "you are going to have to fix the door."Malphas opened his mouth to speak, but his throat was perfectly dry. He wanted to raise his heavy silver broadsword. He wanted to sho

The purple screen flickered. A new message appeared in bright red letters.[Query Acknowledged.][To expand the Soul Architecture, the current walls must be completely destroyed.][Action Required: Open the Second Gate of the Void.]Adam read the words. He understood perfectly.To build a bigger castle, you have to tear down the old one. He had to destroy his own soul's shape to let the Void expand naturally. But there was a catch. The System immediately showed another red warning.[WARNING!][Opening the Second Gate will instantly shatter the current Soul Walls.][If the Host cannot control the raw energy without walls, the Host’s physical body will instantly vaporize in the real world.][Survival Rate: 0.01%.]Adam smiled. It was a cold, dark, fearless smile. "I survived the mud," Adam said softly. "I survived the Ice Witch. I survived the Bone Dragon. I survived the Holy Seraph. Do you really think I care about a decimal point?"Adam raised both of his hands. He looked at the thick

Catherine closed her eyes. She reached deep into her own magical core. She did not pull out normal ice magic. Normal ice magic would just melt against the extreme heat of the Moon-Shard explosion and the Holy Smite.She pulled out something much deeper. She pulled out her bloodline's secret. "Primordial Frost," Catherine whispered.A blinding, pure blue light erupted from her hands. It was not just cold. It was the complete absence of heat. It was the magic of the frozen end of the world. Primordial Frost did not just freeze water. It froze energy. It froze time itself."I am going to build a dam," Catherine told the unconscious boy. "The energy inside you is leaking. It is a flood. I am going to freeze the flood. I will hold the chaotic energy back. You just have to rebuild the walls. Do you hear me? Rebuild your walls!"Catherine pushed with all her might.The Primordial Frost sank directly through Adam’s skin. It did not try to fight the dark Void. It did not try to fight the hol

The terrible, pitch-black cloud over the arena did not last long. For one single, terrifying moment, Adam Cook had held Julian Martinez by the throat. Adam’s eyes had glowed with the power of a dark god. He had stopped the holy fire. He had controlled the eclipse. But a human body is still made of flesh and bone.The Eternal Sovereign System had removed the safety limits to save Adam’s life. It had forced the Second Gate to open just enough to swallow the massive magical explosion of the Moon-Shard and the Holy Smite. But opening that gate had a terrible price.Suddenly, the blinding violet light in Adam’s eyes flickered. BZZZT. It sounded like a dying lantern.Adam’s hand lost its iron grip. His fingers went completely limp. He dropped Julian. The heavy, bald boy fell to the sand, coughing and gasping for air. The golden runes on Julian’s face were dull and gray.Adam did not say another word. He did not look at the Princess. He did not look at the Inquisitor.Adam’s eyes rolled bac

Julian did not listen. He did not care about his own life. The Seraph only cared about destroying the darkness."I will purify you," Julian commanded. He raised his hand toward the sky. A massive ball of holy fire began to gather in his palm. He was preparing to execute Adam right there in the sand.Adam’s hands fell away from Julian’s boot. He had no strength left.The digestion fever had sapped his muscles. The broken ribs made it impossible to breathe. The Holy Smite had burned his nerves.Adam lay pinned to the dirt. He looked up at the bright blue sky.“I wanted to be a King,” Adam thought slowly. His brain was shutting down. “I promised myself I would never be on the ground again. But here I am. In the mud. Under his boot. Again.”He thought about Catherine. If he died here, Julian would tell the Inquisition about her. Malphas would burn her at the stake.He thought about Princess Elara. She was sitting up in her velvet chair, watching him die like a dog on a leash.He felt a de

The darkness formed a heavy barrier between him and Julian. It was the same shield that had easily stopped the Bone Dragon and the fire mages.Julian’s finger glowed brighter.BZZZZZT! A thick beam of solid, roaring white light shot from Julian’s finger. It moved faster than lightning. It crossed the ten feet of sand in a microsecond and slammed directly into Adam’s Void Shield.Adam expected the Void to eat the magic. He expected the black smoke to swallow the light. But it did not.The moment the holy light touched the Void, a terrible, shrieking sound filled the arena. It sounded like water being thrown into a fryer.The Holy Smite did not fade. It burned through the darkness like boiling acid melting through thin paper.[System Alert: 300% Critical Damage Received!][Holy Energy is the absolute counter to Void Energy.]The white beam pierced right through the center of the black shield. It hit Adam directly in the left shoulder."GAAAAAH!" Adam screamed. It was a raw, agonizing s
