Chapter 177: The Chains of Choice
The white light devoured everything. Maya’s scream was torn from her throat as the chains dragged her through it, the heat of the fissure searing her skin, emerald fire licking across her vision.For a breathless instant, she thought she was dead, nothing existed but pain, brightness, and the crushing weight of the abyss. Then her body slammed onto solid ground.She gasped, sucking in air, her wrists still shackled by the chains. The cavern was gone. Or rather, changed. The jagged walls had melted into obsidian smoothness, the emerald veins glowing brighter than ever, pulsing like arteries.Above, no ceiling existed; instead, the sky was a swirling storm of black clouds split with green lightning. And Jace stood before her, framed against that storm.The chains tethering her didn’t come from the world. They came from him. From the perfect orbit of twenty-four that circled his body like a crown of serpents.Maya’s chest heaved. “Jace… please… don’t do this.”He didn’t answer. His eyes
Chapter 176: The Vessel’s Awakening
The silence after the explosion was unbearable. Dust clung to the air, thick enough to choke, and the cavern stank of iron and ozone. The emerald veins that had once pulsed through the stone were dead now, shriveled into black scars.Maya staggered to her feet, her whole body trembling. Her wounds throbbed, her clothes torn, but pain was the least of her concerns.Because Jace, no, the thing that had once been Jace, stood at the cavern’s heart like a monarch surveying his throne.The twenty-four chains orbiting him rotated in deliberate patterns, never touching, never faltering. They weren’t wild anymore. They were controlled. His. Maya’s throat went dry.“Jace,” she whispered.He turned. And smiled. It wasn’t warm. It wasn’t weary. It wasn’t him. It was a predator’s smile. “The vessel endures. The vessel reigns.”The words were calm, too calm, but layered with voices beneath his own. Thousands of whispers threaded through the sound, each carrying hunger, power, inevitability.Maya st
Chapter 175: The Remade Vessel
The cavern was alive. The black stone pulsed with veins of green fire, each beat echoing like a heart too vast to comprehend. Dust rained down from the ceiling as cracks spread in jagged lines, spiderwebbing out from where Jace sat.Maya’s breath hitched. He wasn’t dead. He wasn’t even human anymore. Jace’s body pulsed with the shard’s eternal light, abyssal shadow, and something new, something that shouldn’t exist.His flesh was whole, but not flesh. His skin rippled with patterns like living chains etched into him. His eyes burned with three fires at once.He turned toward her slowly, the chains coiling out from his body like snakes, slamming into the cavern floor with metallic cracks.“Jace?” Maya whispered, her voice trembling.But the thing that answered wasn’t him. “Vessel remade. Vessel holds. For now.”The voice that left his throat wasn’t one, it was many. The abyss, the shard, the echoes of Sovereign’s final curse. Jace’s lips moved, but his own voice fought to surface.“N…
Chapter 174: The Shard’s Detonation
The detonation did not sound. It erased. No thunder. No explosion. No crash. Just silence, so complete it devoured every scream, every breath, every thought. The abyss fractured.Light burst outward from the Sovereign’s core shard, not white or silver, but something beyond, raw existence, the unfiltered essence of eternity. It was not meant for mortal eyes, nor abyssal ones. It was the language of creation itself.Maya was thrown into the void, her body stretched and torn by the force. Her mouth opened in a soundless scream, her veins glowing with borrowed silver light that seared her from within.The Sovereign’s body dissolved like ash in a storm, yet his laugh lingered, reverberating in the silence. And Jace, Jace was at the center of it all.The abyssal chains wrapped tight around the shard, but the moment they touched it, they began to unravel. One by one, links shattered, exploding into motes of black fire.Jace’s scream filled the void. His eyes burned with both the abyss’s endl
Chapter 173: Spear Through the Heart
The silver spear pierced downward, blazing like a falling star. Jace’s abyssal greatsword flickered, its flame sputtering as the green beam from the abyssal eye seared into his back. His scream ripped through the void, raw, jagged, almost inhuman.The Sovereign’s laughter broke free, ragged and triumphant. “You see?! Even the abyss rejects you, boy! You were never meant to wield its gaze!”The silver spear tore through Jace’s guard, its tip inches from his chest.Maya’s throat shredded as she screamed, lunging toward him. Chains of silver lashed out to stop her, but she ripped through them with raw desperation, blood splattering across her torn arms.“NO!”But the spear struck. The sound was deafening. A blinding flash swallowed everything, so bright it scorched the void itself. The shockwave ripped the platform apart entirely, hurling fragments of flesh and stone in every direction.Maya was thrown into the abyss, her body tumbling helplessly into the storm. Her vision swam, ears rin
