Chapter 140: Duel in the Void
The fall never ended, Blackness swallowed Jace whole, his body weightless, spinning in endless freefall. The roar of the storm above vanished, replaced by silence so thick it crushed his ears. Yet within that silence, one sound beat steady, the clinking of chains.They weren’t around his wrists anymore. They floated, orbiting him like living serpents of fire, each link glowing faintly in the dark. Then a voice ripped the void apart.“We are the debt. We are the bind. Choose your master.”Jace crashed hard, The ground was smooth stone, glowing faintly with crimson cracks that pulsed like a beating heart. The void had formed a coliseum.Walls of black iron rose around him, and above, a ceiling of fire bled molten sparks down into the pit.Across the arena, his double landed with feline grace. He straightened, brushing soot from his jacket as if the fall hadn’t touched him at all. His eyes burned with molten red, chains coiling lazily at his side like tamed vipers.“Looks like the real g
Chapter 139: The Crown of Chains
The storm convulsed, Blades howled through the void, fire bled from the skies, and in the eye of it all Jace’s hand rose, trembling, shaking, blistered by heat, yet reaching.His chains writhed like living serpents, the links glowing white-hot as they sensed their prey: the crowned warrior struggling beneath the grip of his double.Every pull from the shadow-self tightened the fiery shackles around that colossus, choking its roar into a metallic snarl. Sparks exploded, cascading across the battlefield like fireworks.The crowned warrior’s voice thundered. “Unworthy… unworthy…”But its chains quivered. They wanted a master. They wanted an heir.Jace’s chest heaved, lungs shredded with smoke, but his heart beat with an unholy rhythm, faster, louder, like a war-drum that shook his bones. His vision blurred, half from blood loss, half from the voices in the chains.“Claim… Bind… Consume…”His double’s laugh cut through. Low, cruel, a mirror twisted in malice.“You’re weak, Jace. Always we
Chapter 138: The Trial of Blades
The storm swallowed him whole.One moment Jace was shackled in the collapsing hall, the next he was hurled through a maelstrom of fire and steel. Blades spun like hurricanes, their edges screaming through the void, glowing red with molten heat. The air was thick with sparks and ash, each one slicing his skin like razors.His back slammed against invisible ground, the impact knocking the breath from his lungs. He rolled instinctively as a burning sword speared into the space where he had landed, carving a trench of fire.Figures emerged from the storm.There were dozens of them, maybe hundreds, tall, armored warriors, their faces hidden beneath helmets of molten iron. Each one carried a blade that dripped fire, the heat so intense the air rippled. Chains trailed from their armor, dragging behind them like the tails of comets.Their eyes, what little Jace could glimpse through the cracks of their helmets, glowed the same crimson as the Ledger. They moved in unison, a tide of death advan
Chapter 137: Shackled in Fire
The scream tore out of Jace’s throat until his lungs burned raw. He plunged through the abyss, fire-chains snaking tighter around his arms and chest. His body should have been shredded by the flames, but instead the pain felt alive, crawling into his veins, digging into his very marrow.He slammed against solid ground, hard. The impact rattled his skull and sent cracks through the stone floor beneath him. For a long moment, he lay still, gasping, his eyes fluttering against the searing weight of the fire-chains.When he forced himself to look up, the world had changed again, This wasn’t the cavern of wretches anymore.He stood in a vast hall, lit not by molten rivers, but by hanging lanterns of crimson flame. Black marble columns stretched so high they disappeared into the gloom. The air was hot, metallic, carrying the acrid stench of burning coin.And there were thrones.Dozens of them, arranged in two lines leading to a colossal seat at the far end. Each throne was occupied by a fig
Chapter 136: The Descent
The fall didn’t feel like a fall. It felt like being torn apart, Jace’s body convulsed as he plunged into the abyss beneath the blood-marked floor.His ears rang with whispers, each one carrying fragments of voices he knew, his mother, his tormentors, even himself. His chest seized as if invisible hands clawed at his lungs. The darkness was alive. Then impact.Jace hit the ground hard enough to rattle his bones. He groaned, forcing himself onto hands and knees. The chains were gone, but his wrists still burned where the iron had been. He looked up. The abyss wasn’t empty.He stood at the edge of a vast underground chamber. Its ceiling soared high into shadows. Jagged pillars of black stone rose like teeth, glowing faintly with veins of molten gold. A river, no, a current of liquid light, wound through the cavern, its glow casting everything in an eerie illumination.And along the banks, shapes moved, They weren’t guards. They weren’t human.Figures draped in tattered robes shuffled ai
Chapter 135: Awakening in Chains
Silence.Not the silence of peace, but the heavy, suffocating kind that presses against your ribs and makes every breath feel like theft.Jace’s eyes snapped open, The first thing he saw wasn’t light. It was blackness so deep it seemed alive, swallowing the edges of his vision. Then a flicker. A faint glow, distant and wavering, like a candle fighting against the dark. He tried to move, Chains rattled.His wrists were bound, iron biting into his skin. His ankles too. He was seated, back pressed against cold stone, the air thick with damp and rust. The metallic stench told him everything, a prison, deep underground.His pulse thundered. Last thing he remembered, the double’s face lunging at him, the Ledger burning like fire in his hands then nothing. Now the Ledger was gone. Panic surged. His chest tightened, breath catching like he was drowning. “Looking for this?”The voice cut through the dark. Smooth. Mocking. Familiar. The faint glow brightened, not a candle, but the Ledger itself
