2026-08-09 01:01:56The city fell silent.
Even the crackling flames seemed to fade beneath the weight of the Warlord's voice.
"Blood Sovereign... we have found you."
Kael's heart skipped a beat.
"How does it know who I am?"
Around the battlefield, every Abyss creature lowered its head.
The gigantic Warlord stepped forward, its armored feet crushing the cobblestones beneath them.
Each step shook the city.
The blue-haired archer leaped from the rooftop and landed beside Kael with surprising grace.
"You need to leave," she said firmly.
Kael looked at her.
"What about everyone else?"
She frowned.
"If that monster is really after you, staying here will get every person in this city killed."
Kael turned toward the frightened citizens.
Children clung to their parents.
Wounded guards struggled to stand.
Old men and women hid behind collapsed buildings.
He remembered Black Hollow.
He remembered standing alone while everyone watched him suffer.
He would not abandon innocent people again.
"No."
The archer sighed.
"I was afraid you'd say that."
She pulled another arrow from her quiver.
"My name is Elara."
"If we're going to survive this, we'd better fight together."
Kael nodded.
"I'm Kael."
The Warlord suddenly laughed.
A deep, terrifying laugh.
"So..."
"The heir hides behind humans."
It slammed the butt of its axe into the ground.
A wave of black energy spread across the city.
Every fallen Abyss creature rose again.
The monsters the soldiers had already defeated stood back up as if nothing had happened.
The guards stared in horror.
"They're alive again!"
"No..." Elara whispered.
"The Warlord is empowering them."
Hundreds of monsters charged at once.
Kael stepped forward.
"Protect the civilians!"
The city guards formed a defensive line behind him.
Most were exhausted.
Many were wounded.
But seeing someone stand against the Warlord gave them renewed courage.
"For the city!" one captain shouted.
The battle erupted.
Kael struck the first monster with Crimson Pulse, blasting it into two others.
Elara's arrows flashed like blue lightning, piercing enemy after enemy.
The guards held the streets, preventing the creatures from reaching the civilians.
But there were simply too many.
Kael's breathing became heavier.
His Blood Arts consumed enormous amounts of energy.
The crimson glow around his hands flickered.
Elara noticed immediately.
"You're running out of power."
Kael nodded.
"I've never fought this many enemies."
Before she could answer—
The Warlord moved.
One moment it stood at the city gate.
The next...
It was directly in front of Kael.
Its gigantic axe came crashing down.
Kael barely raised Crimson Aegis in time.
BOOOOM!
The impact shattered the street.
The crimson barrier cracked.
Blood trickled from Kael's nose.
His knees buckled beneath the immense force.
The Warlord leaned closer.
Its burning eyes narrowed.
"You are weaker..."
"...than your father."
Rage burned within Kael.
"You knew my father?"
"I killed him."
The words echoed through Kael's mind.
For a heartbeat...
Everything became still.
His father's final battle.
The burning palace.
His mother's tears.
The memories flooded back.
"You..."
Kael whispered.
"You were there."
The Warlord smiled cruelly.
"I watched your father fall."
"I watched your mother die."
"And today..."
"I shall erase the last stain of their bloodline."
Something inside Kael snapped.
His crimson mark blazed brighter than ever before.
The ground beneath his feet cracked.
The air around him rippled with scarlet energy.
Deep within his soul, an ancient heartbeat thundered.
THUMP!
THUMP!
THUMP!
Far away...
Hidden beneath the ruins of the Eternal Blood Shrine...
Aurelius suddenly opened his eyes.
"He awakened..."
Arkan, battered but alive, looked toward the distant horizon.
"So soon?"
Even Vorthrax, resting within the Abyss, slowly smiled.
"The blood remembers."
Back in the city...
Kael's eyes glowed like twin crimson stars.
The cracked Crimson Aegis vanished.
In its place...
A suit of crimson armor began forming around his body.
The Blood Sovereign Armor.
The Warlord took an unexpected step backward.
For the first time...
Fear appeared in its eyes.
"No..."
"Impossible..."
"The Third Awakening..."
Kael slowly raised his head.
His voice was calm.
Cold.
Filled with ancient authority.
"You said you killed my father."
The crimson armor fully formed.
A spectral cloak of blood-red energy flowed behind him.
Kael extended his hand.
From countless crimson particles...
A sword began to materialize.
Not the legendary Sovereign Blade...
But its first true manifestation.
A weapon forged from Kael's own bloodline.
He pointed it toward the trembling Warlord.
"Now..."
"You'll tell me everything."
The sky darkened.
Lightning danced through crimson clouds.
The real battle...
Had finally begun.

CHAPTER 50: JUDGEMENT OF THE WATCHERS
The golden light descended from the heavens.It was brighter than the sun.Brighter than the stars.Even the World Tree bowed beneath its radiance.Kael instinctively shielded his eyes.The Hollow King, however, remained standing.His expression was calm.Almost... resigned.“You came sooner than I expected.”The light gathered into seven towering figures.Each was cloaked in robes woven from living starlight.Their faces were hidden behind golden masks.Their presence alone made the First Realm tremble.Kael felt his soul grow heavy.These beings were unlike anything he had ever encountered.Not even the Seven Sovereigns possessed such overwhelming authority.One of the figures stepped forward.Its voice echoed through every branch of the World Tree.“Hollow King.”“Your exile has ended.”The Hollow King smiled faintly.“No.”“It has only begun.”Kael looked from the Watchers to the Hollow King.“You know each other.”One of the Watchers turned toward him.“We created him.”Silence.
CHAPTER 49: THE WORLD BEFORE TIME
Darkness.Then...Light.Kael slowly opened his eyes.He was standing in a vast meadow covered with silver grass that stretched beyond the horizon. Above him, there was no sun, no moon, and no stars. Instead, enormous rivers of light flowed across the sky like living constellations.The air was peaceful.Too peaceful.There was no trace of the Hollow King’s corruption.No scent of death.No hatred.Only silence.“So...”A calm voice echoed behind him.“What do you think of my home?”Kael turned.The Hollow King stood several metres away, no longer wearing his black robes. Instead, he wore simple white clothing, looking less like an ancient destroyer and more like an ordinary traveller.“You brought me here.”The Hollow King nodded.“Yes.”“Where is this place?”The ancient ruler smiled.“The First Realm.”“The birthplace of all worlds.”Kael’s eyes widened.“The First Realm...”“I thought it was only a legend.”“So did everyone after it was erased.”The Hollow King began walking throu
CHAPTER 48: THE HOLLOW KING'S INVITATION
The moment the Sixth Inheritance merged with Kael’s soul...The world went silent.No wind.No thunder.Even time itself seemed to pause.The six rings surrounding the Blood Sovereign Mark shone together, creating an ancient symbol that had not appeared in thousands of years.The First Sovereign, still beneath the Black Citadel, suddenly looked toward the heavens.His normally calm face filled with disbelief.“It has appeared...”Malachar looked at him.“What has?”“The Crest of the True Sovereign.”Far away at the Shrine of Storms, Kael stared at the glowing mark on his hand.Blue lightning circled around him without causing harm.The winds obeyed his every thought.He could feel every storm across the continent.Every raindrop.Every gust of wind.Every flash of lightning.The Sixth Inheritance had connected him to the skies themselves.Aurel watched in amazement.“I have studied the Seven Sovereigns all my life.”“I have never seen anything like this.”Tharos smiled.“Because it ha
CHAPTER 47: THE TEMPEST DRAGON
The corrupted Tempest Dragon spread its colossal wings.A single beat sent hurricanes tearing across the floating mountains.Lightning rained from the heavens.The Shrine of Storms groaned as ancient pillars collapsed one after another.Raijin lowered his head.His proud voice carried sorrow.“For ten thousand years...”“I guarded the Heart of the Tempest.”“And in one moment...”“I have failed.”Kael stepped beside the ancient guardian.“No.”Raijin looked at him.“This wasn’t your failure.”“It was Varyn’s.”The old wolf studied Kael for a long moment.Then he smiled.“You truly are different from the kings who came before.”High above them, the Tempest Dragon released a deafening roar.ROOOOOOAR!The sound alone shattered nearby mountain peaks.The dragon’s crimson eyes locked onto Kael.Then it spoke.“I know your scent.”Kael frowned.“You can speak?”“I remember every Blood Sovereign.”Its enormous head lowered until it was only metres away.“I remember your father.”Kael’s grip
CHAPTER 46: THE KING OF STORMS
The Tower of Thunder rose into the heavens.It pierced the black clouds like a spear forged by the gods.Lightning struck its sides every few seconds, yet the ancient structure remained untouched.At its summit floated the corrupted Heart of the Tempest.Each beat of the crystal sent waves of black lightning across the continent.Kael looked upward.“I’ll climb alone.”Selene immediately stepped forward.“No.”Kael smiled faintly.“This is the Sixth Trial.”“If we all go...”“The shrine may reject us.”Tharos nodded.“He speaks the truth.”“The Storm Sovereign chooses only one challenger.”Selene reluctantly lowered her sword.“Then come back.”Kael looked into her eyes.“I will.”The first step onto the tower sent a surge of electricity through Kael’s body.His muscles tightened.Pain raced through every nerve.Yet he continued climbing.Step after step.Higher and higher.The storm seemed determined to throw him back into the abyss.Suddenly...A bolt of lightning struck directly in
