Chapter 137 – The Hollow King’s Whisper
The light she had unleashed guttered like a storm-tossed flame. It flickered across the cavern, scattering shadows but failing to erase them. Instead, the dark writhed back, rippling like oil disturbed on water, tightening its grip on the chained figures.Their screams rose in a shrill, ragged chorus, echoing against the living walls.Mira staggered, clutching her chest. The flare of power had left her trembling, her veins still burning as if molten fire ran through them. She dropped to one knee, panting, her fingers digging into the strange breathing stone.“Unclean…” The voice hissed from every direction at once. “Unshaped. Incomplete.”The ground beneath her convulsed. Veins of black fire split open, spewing ash that seared the air. The chained prisoners writhed in agony as the shadows wrapped tighter around them, twisting their bodies further.The man who had spoken to her earlier jerked violently as his chains pulled taut. His eyes widened in sudden terror. “It’s coming.”Mira’s
Chapter 136 – The Shattered Path
Mira gasped awake. Her body slammed against hard stone, the impact jolting fire through her ribs. She coughed violently, black liquid spilling from her mouth, the taste of ash and metal burning her throat.For a moment she could not breathe, could not think. Then memory struck like lightning. The tether. The void. Kael’s hand slipping from hers.Her scream tore from her chest, raw and jagged. She clawed at the air as if she could still reach him, but her fingers closed around nothing. The silence where his presence had always been was unbearable, like a limb torn from her soul.Mira curled in on herself, shaking, every nerve screaming in grief. But then she felt it. A whisper. A flicker. The faintest echo of his heartbeat, buried deep, distant, but there. Not gone. Not erased.She dragged in a ragged breath, forcing herself upright. Her surroundings came into focus a cavern, if it could be called that.The walls pulsed faintly with veins of sickly light, shadows writhing in their crac
Chapter 135 – The Void Without Her
Kael drifted. The void roared around him, an endless storm of shadow and fire, yet he felt nothing. His body, battered and torn, should have screamed with pain, but numbness had hollowed him out.His hand remained outstretched, fingers curled as if they still held hers, though the tether was gone. Gone. Mira was gone.For a moment, he could not breathe. His chest constricted, every ragged breath scraping like glass, yet the greater wound lay deeper where her presence had been.The tether that had tied them through fire, blood, and endless struggle was nothing but silence now. Empty. Cold.The Abyss loomed. Its countless eyes gleamed, its shadow stretching beyond sight. “At last,” it hissed, voice like the grinding of worlds. “The chain is severed. The cage is mine alone.”Kael’s head lifted, his human eye burning with a fury so sharp it hurt. His lips moved, the words torn and bloodied but unshakable. “You didn’t… take her. You couldn’t.”The Abyss laughed, vast and mocking. “Do you t
Chapter 134 – The Fractured Tether
The impact split the void. Silence fell for one terrible instant, a silence so vast it crushed breath, thought, existence itself. Then the darkness screamed.The claw had struck, rending light and flesh alike, and the tether that bound Mira and Kael shuddered as if on the brink of snapping.Mira’s cry tore from her throat. Her body convulsed as fire burned through her veins, white-hot agony racing down her arms, her chest, her heart.The chains that had bound her for so long writhed in triumph, tightening with enough force to slice skin and muscle. Blood ran down her wrists, only to evaporate into the abyss, consumed instantly.And still she held.Kael staggered, his wings shattered, one arm hanging uselessly at his side. The claw had struck him directly, ripping through his ribs, gouging fire into his chest. Yet he did not fall. His legs trembled, his vision blurred, but his human eye burned like a shard of the sun.He dragged in a ragged breath, tasting iron and ash. His lips formed
Chapter 133 – Mira’s Fury
The chains around Mira’s wrists hissed, burning faintly as if alive. Darkness pressed in from every side, but she refused to look away from the faint spark ahead Kael.Her hands shook, her body screamed in pain, but the tether between them pulsed stronger than ever, a lifeline forged in fire and desperation. She could feel him burning, bleeding, broken but still fighting.The Abyss’s tendrils lashed at her, striking with crushing force. Mira screamed, sending out pulses of radiant light with each cry, shattering some shadows, but not all.Every strike that hit her weakened her, yet she endured, because Kael’s spark called to her like a beacon. “I won’t let you take him!” she shouted, her voice slicing through the void.A massive shadow descended from above, massive claws reaching for Kael. Mira’s eyes widened. Her tether flared, connecting them through the darkness.Her body arched, and she hurled a beam of blinding light at the shadow, meeting the Abyss’s strike midair.Kael cried ou
Chapter 132 – Kael’s Last Stand
The sanctuary lay in ruins. Stone cracked, fire sputtering weakly, smoke curling in chaotic spirals as Kael staggered to his knees. His arms ached, his chest burned, and every muscle in his body screamed in protest but he couldn’t stop. Not now.The Abyss hung above, a storm of shadows and claws, its eye fixed mercilessly on him. The rift from which it had emerged rippled, dark currents snaking downward like fingers reaching for the last spark of light.Kael’s entire body trembled under the pull, yet his fists clenched around the hilt of his sword. She’s out there. She’s still fighting.Kael could feel it, the faint pulse of Mira’s light, the tether between them. It was a thin thread, trembling and fragile, yet alive. Every fiber of his being screamed to reach for it. Every ounce of despair burned into determination.The Abyss roared, a hurricane of sound and force. Shadows spiraled down like knives, shattering the fractured stone. Kael lashed out, sparks of fire erupting from his bod
