Chapter 295
The Second Wraithborn Lord stood tall, his jagged armor glowing faintly red as the mist surged around him. From the cracks in the earth, more creatures crawled, masked, clawed, their bodies twisted with black fire. Dozens became hundreds, and hundreds became a tide.The rebels staggered back, their eyes wide with horror. “There’s no end…They just keep coming…This is a slaughter.” Their voices broke as the first wave lunged, shrieking.Oliver forced his broken body upright, his sword glowing faintly with Elias’s threads. His crimson eyes burned as he stepped in front of Mara. She tried to steady him, but he shook his head. “I’m still standing.”Mara clenched her knives, blood dripping from her hands. “Then we fight. Until we can’t.”Oliver’s voice was raw, but unyielding. “No. Until he’s dead.”Grelich’s staff blazed, flames roaring outward to push back the tide. His cloak whipped in the wind, his eyes sharp and calculating even as the fire scorched the battlefield.“Listen to me!” he
Chapter 294
The ground shook with every step the Wraithborn Lord took. His armor clanged like iron chains dragging through the dark. His eyes glowed red behind the cracked mask, burning brighter with every breath. The black mist curled around him like a living beast, hungry and endless.The rebels could not move. Some dropped their weapons, their shoulders slumped in despair. Others stumbled backward, muttering prayers to gods who had long abandoned them. Garrick’s scarred face was ghost-pale, his sword trembling in his grip. “We can’t fight that,” he whispered. “We’ll be slaughtered.”Mara stepped in front of Oliver, knives trembling in her hands. Her body was battered, her blood soaking her clothes, but she held her ground.Oliver stood beside her, leaning heavily on his sword. His crimson eyes glowed faintly in the gloom, his breath shallow. His body was broken, but his will was unshaken. “We don’t run,” he said, his voice hoarse but steady. “If he wants us… He’ll have to kill us where we s
Chapter 293
The Lord’s blade fell like a mountain. Oliver couldn’t move. His arms shook uselessly, his body screaming in pain, but the strength was gone. His crimson eyes blazed with defiance, yet inside, he knew, he could not stop this one.The rebels cried out in terror. Mara screamed his name, dragging herself across the ground with bleeding hands. The black fire roared closer, and then chains snapped.A sound split the battlefield, sharp and metallic, like iron breaking after centuries. The Lord’s blade froze mid-swing, wrapped in glowing golden links that erupted from the air itself. The Wraithborn Lord’s mask tilted. His voice thundered. “What?”The chains pulled tighter, glowing brighter, forcing his weapon back. They clanged against his armor, binding his arms, burning into his flesh with a hiss.Oliver gasped, his eyes widening. He knew those threads. That light. “Elias?”From the sky above, golden sparks rained down. They gathered, swirling into a faint figure, small, fragile, almost tr
Chapter 292
The battlefield groaned beneath the weight of the Lord’s power. Wings of shadow spread wide behind him, blotting out what little light the sky still offered. His mask glowed with red cracks, his blade pulsing with black fire so dense it seemed to devour the air itself.Rebels stumbled back, their voices breaking into terrified whispers. “No man can fight that…He’s not even trying yet. We’re dead. We’re already dead.”Oliver ignored them. His crimson eyes locked on the towering figure. His chest heaved, every bone screaming with pain, but his grip on his sword never wavered.This was no whisper. No inner chain. This was flesh and blood. Real. Killable. He raised his blade. “You’re not taking another step.”The Lord’s voice thundered. “Then you die standing.”He blurred forward, faster than the eye could follow. His strike came down like a storm. Oliver met it with a roar, his blade flaring with silver-gold fire.The clash shattered the ground, the shockwave throwing men into the air.
Chapter 291
Ash drifted in the wind. The air was heavy, still trembling from the Hollow’s destruction. Rebels stood frozen, their blades lowered, their eyes fixed on Oliver with fear and awe.He stood in the center of the plain, his sword still glowing faintly with silver and gold. His chest heaved with each breath. His body screamed with exhaustion, but the silence inside him was worth it. No whisper. No claws. The Hollow was gone.Mara clung to his arm, her face streaked with blood and dust. She was shaking, but her voice was steady. “You did it.”Oliver’s crimson eyes softened as he looked at her. “We did it.”But even as the words left his lips, something stirred in the distance. The air grew colder.At first, it was just a ripple, a tremor that ran through the cracked earth. Then the sky dimmed, clouds rolling like smoke. The rebels shifted uneasily, their whispers sharp in the silence. “What’s that? Is it not over? “Don’t tell me, another monster.”Oliver gripped his sword tighter, his e
Chapter 290
The battlefield trembled, golden fissures splitting wider, shadowfire boiling in the cracks. Above it all, Elias floated in a storm of light and dark, his small body blazing with power not meant for him.Mara shielded her eyes with a trembling arm, tears streaming down her face. “Elias! Please, come back!”Oliver staggered forward, his sword dragging sparks against the stone. His crimson eyes locked on the boy, torn between dread and desperate hope. His chest heaved, every breath thick with ash and blood.The Hollow hissed inside him, its laughter rattling his skull. “Look at him. Look at what your weakness made him. A puppet. A vessel. My herald. Soon my chains will break, and I will consume you all.”Oliver’s claws curled against his palms until blood ran. His teeth clenched, rage boiling in his chest. “No. Not anymore.”He lifted his sword, shadowfire blazing, and drove it into the ground. The impact cracked the plain, sparks scattering, and his roar split the storm. “ENOUGH!”The
