Hadi stepped out of the headquarters, his mind swirling with chaos. A million thoughts clashed in his head, unanswered questions, unsolved problems, and the crushing weight of responsibility.

Haitham noticed his exhaustion and placed a hand on his shoulder. "That's it, go rest. Go see your family, it's been a while since you last saw them."

Hadi nodded silently and left.

When he finally reached home, he tried to relax, but his thoughts refused to settle. The mysteries piled up like a storm in his mind: the issue of the Golden Armor, the injured knights, Kareem still lying unconscious in a coma, Ali's unresolved issue with the professor they were holding at the headquarters, the relentless hunt for Waleed's remaining followers, and worst of all, Waleed himself.

He was the one behind the ghoul's sudden attacks, every time they shattered their defenses, their months of effort gone to waste. It all felt pointless now.

Hadi's head throbbed. He was the strategist, the one who had to analyze

  • Chapter 178, The Stinky Wolf Bear.

    The massive ghoul, a grotesque hybrid of wolf and bear loomed over Laith, its rancid breath washing over him in hot waves. Laith had given it a nickname "Stinky Wolf-Bear" in his head, partly to calm his nerves, partly because the damn thing really smelled like rotten meat and garbage."Come on, you overgrown trash," Laith taunted, wiping blood from his split lip. "Is that all you've got?" The ghoul's eyes narrowed, as if it understood the insult. With a roar that shook dust from the tunnel walls, it charged, its enormous claws swiping through the air. Laith barely dodged the first strike, rolling to the side as stone shattered where he'd stood moments before. The second swipe came faster, he ducked, feeling the wind of its passing ruffle his hair. "Missed again!" he shouted, adrenaline surging through his veins. Seeing an opening, he leaped forward, his sword flashing in a wide arc aimed straight for the creature's face. The ghoul reacted with terrifying speed, raising its fo

  • Chapter 177, The Brave One And The Shock.

    Ali crawled forward, his body trembling with exhaustion. His whispered prayers echoed in the dark tunnel: "Please, let me reach help... Please, don't let ghouls find me... Please, save Laith before he gets hurt because of me..."As he dragged himself through the dirt, he heard footsteps approaching. His vision blurred from pain and fatigue, he didn't even know whether it was a human or a ghoul. He couldn't tell.With the last of his strength, he lifted his head. The tunnel was too dark to make out the figure clearly, but the silhouette was human, not a ghoul. The person seemed to recognize Ali, calling his name urgently. But Ali could barely hear him, his ears were ringing, his consciousness fading.He tried to speak, to beg for help for Laith, but his legs gave out beneath him. He collapsed.The stranger lunged forward, catching him just before he hit the ground, shouting his name again.Before darkness fully took him, Ali forced out one last whisper:"Please... help Laith..."Laith

  • Chapter 176, A Knight's Heart.

    Laith pressed himself against the cold stone, watching the masked guard fumble with the ring of keys. The man's breathing was loud in the underground silence, his boots scuffing against the uneven ground as he muttered curses under his breath about "having to babysit prisoners." Every word made Laith's grip tighten on the hilt of his blade. He waited until the guard turned his back completely, distracted by something in his pocket. Then he moved. Like a shadow given form, Laith surged forward. His left arm snaked around the guard's throat in a brutal chokehold, cutting off any sound before it could escape. The man thrashed, his hands clawing at Laith's arm, but the younger knight drove a knee into his spine, bending him backward. With his free hand, Laith delivered a crushing punch to the guard's temple. The man was knocked out instantly. "Should've paid attention to your surroundings," Laith muttered, lowering the unconscious body to the ground. His fingers quickly found the ke

  • Chapter 175, Saving A Friend.

    Ali lay still for a long moment, his body throbbing with pain from the beating. Every breath sent sharp jolts through his ribs, but he refused to stay helpless. Gritting his teeth, he rolled onto his side, biting back a groan as his bruised muscles protested. Slowly, he dragged himself across the cold stone floor toward the heavy metal door of his cell. The movement sent fresh waves of agony through him, but he ignored it. He needed information. who had taken him, where he was, and what they wanted? When he finally reached the door, he pressed his ear against the rough surface, straining to hear through the thick barrier. At first, there was only silence. Then, faintly, muffled voices reached him. "...won't last much longer if he keeps resisting..." a deep voice said. "The boss doesn't care if he's broken, just that he talks," another replied, colder. Ali's jaw tightened. Boss?A low, guttural growl echoed in the background, ghouls. More than one, from the sound of it. Then

  • Chapter 174, Split Paths.

    Ali groaned as consciousness returned to him in waves. His head throbbed, his vision blurred, and his entire body ached. The cold, rough stone beneath him sent a shiver through his bones as he slowly realized he was lying on the floor of a dark cell. His wrists and ankles were bound tightly with thick, reinforced restraints, the kind used for high-security prisoners. "Where am I?" He wondered.He tried to recall what had happened. The fight in the tunnel, the ghouls, the massive one grabbing him from behind, then darkness. He had no memory of being transported here, wherever here was. As he struggled against the restraints, another realization struck him like a physical blow. "My armor is gone!"That was impossible. His armor couldn’t be removed without the deactivation code, unless someone had forced it off him while he was unconscious. But even then, the system should have triggered a security lock. The thought sent a spike of unease through him. Before he could dwell on it

  • Chapter 173, The Dark Tunnels.

    The stale air of the prison's lower levels clung to their armor as Hadi adjusted the settings on his advanced goggles. The thermal imaging flickered to life, painting the world in eerie shades of green and black. Ali stood close behind, his hand resting on the hilt of his sword, eyes scanning the darkness beyond their flashlight beams. "Got something," Hadi murmured, crouching low. The faintest heat signatures glowed against the cold stone floor, footprints, inhumanly large, with elongated toes and claw marks scoring the concrete. They led deeper into the prison's underbelly, toward the oldest, most neglected blocks. Ali exhaled sharply. "It came from inside." They followed the trail, their boots echoing through empty corridors lined with rusted cell doors. At the end of a derelict hallway, they found it. A cell door, it was slightly ajar. Hadi pushed it open slowly, revealing a nightmare. The back wall had been torn apart, stones ripped free like paper. But it wasn’t an e
