Chapter 28: A City in the Sky
"Welcome to the Final Update," the man at the desk whispered.Nicolás did not wait for the update to install. He lunged across the glowing spreadsheet floor, his fingers locking around the throat of the man who wore his own face. The fluorescent lights above exploded in a spectacular rain of glass shards, each one hanging in the air as if the concept of gravity had been fired without notice. The Manager didn't choke, he simply stared at Nicolás with eyes that were hollow pits of white data, his neck feeling like cold, unyielding rubber beneath Nicolás’s grip."I told you," Nicolás growled, his voice a low vibration that made the office walls peel away like burnt parchment. "I am not interested in a promotion, and I am definitely not interested in a performance review."He squeezed with a force that should have shattered a mountain. The Manager’s body flickered, turning into a cloud of green binary code that tasted like stale coffee and the crushing weight of a Monday morning. The man
Chapter 27: The God-Eater's Hunger
The thousand eyes blinked in unison, a rhythmic, wet sound that made the air feel like thick soup. Nicolás reached for the silk map, his fingers brushing against the starlight fabric even as the white fire licked at his ankles. He did not flinch at the heat. He did not care about the flames. He only cared about the map and the woman in his other arm. Renata was a weight of silver silk and frantic heat, her heart drumming against his spine as they hovered over the abyss. The thousand-eyed presence, a shifting mass of cosmic hunger, let out a sound like a choir screaming underwater. It wanted the silk. It wanted the map to the creator.Get your hands off my property, Nicolás growled at the entity.He released a pulse of golden apathy. The eyes clouded over, their pupils dilating with a sudden, overwhelming desire to close. The entity wavered, its massive, shifting form losing its grip on the vault’s reality. But as the eyes dimmed, a shadow moved in the periphery. Grand Elder Vane, a dy
Chapter 26: Looting the Vaults
Nicolás tossed his jacket to Renata, his eyes tracking the silver blurs with the lethality of a predator who had finally been forced to stand. The first Auditor lunged, its blade of frozen time whistling toward his chest, but Nicolás didn't even bother to parry with a weapon. He caught the shimmering edge between two fingers, the cold static of the blade biting into his skin with a screeching sound that echoed through the obsidian hall. The golden energy of the Idle Emperor flared at the point of contact, turning the frozen time into a tepid puddle of useless mana. With a flick of his wrist, Nicolás snapped the blade like it was made of cheap glass and drove his palm into the Auditor’s chrome chest.The silver-plated figure didn't just fly back, it shattered into a thousand tiny cogs and springs that rattled against the walls. Nicolás didn't wait for the others to gather. He stepped forward, his bare feet cracking the obsidian floor with every stride. The air around him was so dense w
Chapter 25: A Long Walk to Destruction
The small child stared up at Nicolás with wide, watery eyes, his wooden sword trembling in a grip that was far too weak for the weight of the moment. He held out the crumpled envelope, the paper stained with what looked like grease and old ink. Nicolás didn't move for a long time, his gaze flicking from the boy to the horizon where the Obsidian Tower loomed like a jagged black tooth against the bruised sky. He sighed, the sound echoing with a weight that made the child stumble backward."Who are you supposed to be?" Nicolás asked, his voice flat and devoid of any imperial warmth."The man in the tall tower said to give this to the one who looks like he needs a bath," the boy whispered, his voice cracking with a fear that was almost physical.Renata let out a sharp, hysterical snort, her hand tightening around Nicolás’s waist. Her silver hair brushed against his bare shoulder, the scent of her jasmine perfume cutting through the smell of ozone and smoke. "He’s got your number, Nicolás.
Chapter 24: The Over-Sydicate'a Gambit
The silver key in Renata's chest pulsed with a frantic, stuttering light as the massive shadow of the God-Eater's hand blotted out the horizon. The glass of the balcony did not just shatter, it turned into dust under the atmospheric weigt of a being that existed to consume reality. Renata fell to her kness, her lungs burning as the oxygen was squeezed out of air. She looked up at the sky and saw the city turning a flat, dead grey. The vibrant of the gardens were losing their color. It was as if a giant sponge was being dragged across the world, soaking up the very essence of life."Nicolás," Renata wheezed, her hand reaching out toward the empty space where the portal had vanished.Through the shared mana-link, she felt a sudden, sharp coldness. It wasn't the cold of the Audit Dimension, but a coldness coming from Nicolás himself. The bond that had been a source of intense, carnal warmth only moments ago was now vibrating with a high-pitched, lethal frequency. She could feel his heart
Chapter 23: Sleepwalking Through a Duel
The ticking clock echoed through the hollow silence of the balcony for only a second before the golden link between Renata and Nicolás snapped taut, vibrating with the force of a plucked guitar string. Renata fell to her knees, her hands clutching at the empty air where the portal had vanished. She could still feel him. Deep in the core of her soul, the shared mana of the Idle Emperor System was pulsing with a rhythmic, heavy throb. It was a sensation of deep, dark warmth, a carnal heat that suggested Nicolás was not afraid. He was merely settling in. Through the bond, she felt the sudden, cold transition as Nicolás and Admiral Vane slammed into the grey static of the Audit Dimension.The floor was a sheet of infinite, polished slate that reflected the featureless silver sky. There was no sun, no wind, and no sound except for the frantic, ragged breathing of Admiral Vane. The Admiral stood ten feet away from Nicolás, his crimson cape torn and his high-tier armor sparking with dying el
