Ethan stared at Commander Riven.

"You expect me to believe you once had my system?"

Riven smiled. "Believe whatever you like. It won't change what I am."

The black markings across his face spread down his neck. Behind him, the soldiers' beasts began changing. Their bodies swelled, their eyes turned red, and dark energy covered their skin.

Mira stepped beside Ethan, raising her weapon.

"Those aren't normal evolutions."

"They're forced evolutions," Ethan replied. "The same experiments we found in

  • Chapter 75 – The Voice That Created Me

    The recording ended.Nobody spoke.Ethan stared at the console, waiting for the voice to return.It didn't.Finally, he turned toward the First King.“You knew about E-00.”The king's expression was troubled.“I knew the designation existed. I was never told who carried it.”“But you knew someone had ordered the reconstruction experiments.”“Yes.”“And you let me believe my existence was an accident?”The First King lowered his eyes.“I believed the experiments had been abandoned. I didn't know they had continued using the First Witness fragment.”Ethan stepped away from him.“That's always the explanation, isn't it? Someone knows part of the truth, someone else knows another part, and somehow I'm the last person to learn anything about my own life.”Ash moved beside him.“Ethan—”“No. I'm tired of it.”His voice echoed through the room.“I'm tired of people telling me what I am, what I was created for, and what I'm supposed to become. If there's someone out there who thinks they have

  • Chapter 74 – The Brother Who Should Not Exist

    “Hello, little brother.”The words echoed through the chamber.Ethan didn't move.He stared at the figure behind the glass, searching his memories for a face he had never seen before.The stranger looked equally shaken.“Who is that?” he demanded.The First King said nothing.His attention remained fixed on the figure inside the chamber.“No,” he whispered. “This is impossible.”Ethan turned toward him.“You recognize him?”The king swallowed.“I recognize the face.”“Whose face?”“Orion's.”Ethan's blood ran cold.Orion—the man who had claimed to discover the foundation, granted Ethan the system, and disappeared after his image was destroyed.But the figure behind the glass looked younger than the image Ethan remembered.And there was something else.The eyes were different.Orion's eyes had been cold and calculating. This figure's gaze carried a strange familiarity, as if he had known Ethan for years.The figure smiled again.“You've grown.”Ethan took a cautious step forward.“Who

  • Chapter 73 – Where the First Witness Was Born

    The message remained on the console.[NEXT OBSERVATION: THE PLACE WHERE THE FIRST FREE WITNESS WAS BORN.]Ethan stared at the words.“I was born in Nigeria.”The stranger shook his head.“It's not referring to your physical birth.”“Then what is it referring to?”“I don't know. But look at the coordinates.”A map appeared beneath the message. The location was far from the underground facility, hidden beneath a region marked as an abandoned research zone.The First King approached the screen.“That place shouldn't exist.”The little guardian tilted its head.“Why not?”“Because I ordered every record of the earliest reconstruction experiments destroyed.”The stranger went still.“You knew about the reconstruction experiments?”“I knew they existed. I didn't know they were connected to this network.”Ethan turned toward him.“Does the location mean anything to you?”The stranger studied the coordinates.Then his face lost its color.“I've seen this place.”“Where?”“In my memories. The

  • Chapter 72 – The Ones Who Watched

    The enormous eye stared through the black circle.Nobody moved.Even Ash had stopped making comments.Ethan felt the mark on his palm growing warmer, but he refused to look away from the eye.“Who are you?”The voice answered without hesitation.“WE ARE THE WITNESSES OF THE FIRST CREATION.”The First King stepped forward.“Impossible. I was present when the First Origin received the authority to shape possibility. There was nothing before it.”The eye shifted toward him.“YOU WERE PRESENT WHEN IT BEGAN. THAT DOES NOT MEAN YOU KNOW WHAT CAME BEFORE.”The king's expression tightened.Ethan glanced at the First Law.“Do you know anything about this?”“No,” it answered. “But I recognize the authority surrounding that eye. It doesn't belong to the First Origin, the First Decision, or the foundation.”The little guardian moved closer to Ethan.“Then whose authority is it?”The First Law's golden spark flickered.“I don't know.”That answer frightened Ethan more than any explanation could ha

  • Chapter 71 – The Command Beyond Creation

    The voice echoed through the chamber.“THE EXPERIMENT HAS LASTED LONG ENOUGH.”Every abandoned creature froze.The crimson symbol above them rotated slowly, releasing waves of ancient authority. The creatures' bodies began dissolving into streams of light, their individual forms being pulled toward the pale entity at the center.Ethan rushed forward.“Stop!”He reached for the nearest creature, but an invisible force threw him backward.Ash caught him before he struck the ground.“Perhaps charging an ancient command with your bare hands wasn't your best idea.”“I'm open to suggestions!”“Survive first. Think later.”The First King stepped forward, his golden armor flickering into existence.“Everyone, stay back!”He raised one hand toward the symbol.“By the authority of the First King, I command—”His voice died.The golden armor shattered into fragments of light.The king staggered.Ethan grabbed his arm.“What happened?”The First King stared upward.“My authority has been rejected

  • Chapter 70 – The Ones Left Behind

    The eyes beneath the chamber continued opening.One pair.Then ten.Then hundreds.Ethan tightened his hold on the weakened Perfect Evolution.“How many creatures are down there?”The little guardian looked toward the cracks spreading across the floor.“Enough to make the First Origin's abandoned experiment look like a small mistake.”Ash glanced at it.“You really need to learn how to deliver reassuring information.”“I am being honest!”Across the chamber, Lord Veyron watched the awakening with satisfaction.“Magnificent, isn't it?”Ethan turned toward him.“You knew they were there.”“Of course. The organization spent years collecting ancient evolutionary records. We discovered traces of these entities beneath the foundation.”“And instead of leaving them alone, you experimented on them.”Veyron shrugged.“They were already abandoned. I simply gave them another purpose.”The pale creature behind him released a terrible cry.The floor split.A gigantic creature emerged from the dark
