CHAPTER 42: SUFFOCATING THE SKY
The pain was, well, it was something else. My lungs were being turned into a construction site for a monument to Gabriel's ego. Every breath felt like a jagged blade of silver was carving its way into my chest. My vision began to blur around the edges. I could see the system interface flickering in front of me, a mess of crimson warnings.[Critical Damage: Internal respiratory collapse imminent.][Warning: Foreign substance detected in circulatory system.]Gabriel was leaning over me, his hand still clamped onto my head. He looked so smug. I think he expected me to just fold, to start begging or something. It is funny how gods always expect you to act like a victim. Maybe that is why they lose. They never expect the victim to start biting back.I didn't panic. I just closed my eyes and let the panic turn into something colder. I knew exactly what I had to do. I reached deep into the center of my being, past the pain and the fire, and I activated the Devourer’s Funnel.I didn't try to
CHAPTER 41: THE SILVER TIDE
The first wave hit like a solid wall of pressure. It was not just light. It felt like someone had dumped a bucket of molten lead directly onto my skin. I braced myself, digging my heels into the silver grass, and felt the energy wash over me. It was meant to turn me into mist. That was the point of the attack, I think. They wanted to wipe the floor with me before I even got a chance to swing my blade.But they didn't know what I was drinking.My Sovereign Flesh didn't just take the hit. It welcomed it. I felt the kinetic energy pouring into my core, feeding the evolution that had started the moment I landed in this place. I didn't just absorb the force. I stole it.Is that all you have, I shouted, my voice cutting through the roar of the incoming light. You call yourselves gods, but this feels like a gentle breeze.The knights didn't answer. They just kept coming, a silent, disciplined wave of silver. Thousands of them. They moved with a terrifying precision, their spears leveled at m
CHAPTER 40: THE PILLAR’S ARCHITECT
The wind at the top of the pillar was not air. It was pure, unfiltered data flowing at impossible speeds, stinging my skin like tiny needles. I forced myself to climb the final ledge of the golden platform. My muscles were screaming, but I did not stop. My boots crunched down on the final layer of hardened light. There he was. Judicator Remus. He looked entirely too calm for someone who was currently erasing a city. He was sitting on a floating throne of white marble, his hands moving through the air with elegant, precise gestures. He was weaving lines of bright, liquid gold code into the center of the pillar, stitching the deletion ritual together thread by thread. He did not even turn around when I stepped into the sanctum. You are late, Kael, Remus said. His voice was smooth, like velvet over broken glass. I expected you to be deleted by the hound. It is disappointing that I have to clean up the garbage myself.
CHAPTER 39: THE SINKING CITY
The world did not just fall apart. It dissolved. I crawled out of the bunker ruins and onto the main street of Neo-Seoul, and honestly, the sight was almost impressive in how miserable it looked. The asphalt beneath my boots was turning into a grey, churning slush of corrupted digital code. It looked like static on an old television screen, but it was solid enough to swallow you whole if you stood still for too long. Kael, we have to move, Kara shouted. She was pulling at my sleeve, her face covered in gray dust. Everyone is heading toward the transit hubs. The nobles have opened the emergency portals to the upper sectors. We can still make it. I did not look at the transit hubs. I looked at the sky. The pillar was still screaming, and the air around it was thick with jagged, red particles of deletion code. It was beautiful in a way. The kind of beautiful you only see when everything you hate is finally burning down. Let
CHAPTER 40: WELCOME TO THE SECOND HEAVEN
The impact felt like hitting a wall of solid diamond. I slammed into the silver plain with enough force to crater the ground, my body skidding for a hundred yards before I finally came to a stop. I was still clutching the head of Remus by his hair, though his eyes were dimming, the golden light in them fading into a dull grey. I coughed, tasting blood that felt heavier than the stuff I had back on Earth.The air here is thick, I thought, struggling to breathe. It was like trying to inhale liquid mercury. My lungs were burning, each breath feeling like a sharp, serrated blade cutting through my chest.[Warning: Atmospheric Toxicity level extreme.][System Error: Unregistered High Threat Entity Has Breached Sector 2.][Alert: Local Deities alerted. Divine containment protocol active.]The system notifications were popping up in my eyes, bright and frantic, but they sounded different now. Less like a robot and more like a panicked warning system. I looked around. The world was nothing li
CHAPTER 39: SEVERING THE WEAVER
The transmission started as a faint gold glow in the air, a pulsing stream of light Remus was desperately trying to push toward the central core. He was frantic. His hands were shaking, and he kept glancing up at the sky, waiting for the higher admins to acknowledge the data package he was sending. It was my profile. My past. Everything he had just learned about who I really am.If that signal hits the core, the whole upper pantheon will be down here in minutes, I thought.I looked at the platform. The network cables were already thickening, turning a bright, blinding white as the data packets surged through them. There was no way to stop the upload manually. Remus had built this pillar to be impenetrable, a perfect vault for high level system traffic.I don't need to break the vault, I told myself. I just need to fill it with so much garbage that it crashes.I didn't reach for my sword. I reached for the well.I pulled the lid off the Well of the Forgotten, that deep, cold place wher
