Calvin glanced at his watch, the ticking of the second hand oddly loud in the otherwise quiet room. It was well past midnight, and the day’s events had taken a toll on him. The argument with Alana had drained him emotionally, leaving him feeling hollow and exhausted. The situation outside the hotel only added to his weariness—Han Xin’s men were still out there, prowling the streets with an air of menace, their intentions veiled in shadow. Calvin didn’t know exactly what they were after, but he knew enough to understand that stepping outside now could be a fatal mistake.

With a heavy, resigned sigh, Calvin made the decision that they would stay put for the night. The last thing he needed was to expose Alana, and himself, to whatever dangers awaited them beyond the hotel’s doors. He turned to her, his voice tinged with exhaustion, his shoulders slumping slightly as if bearing an invisible weight. “We’ll stay here,” he said, trying to mask his weariness with a tone of authority. “It’s to

  • Beneath the Earth, Above the Truth

    The outer wall groaned.Cracks spidered across its surface like lightning frozen in stone. Dust rained down. A moment later—boom—the first section of the ancient barrier collapsed inward with a thunderous roar, revealing the luminous core of the Fountain beyond.The enemy troops surged forward, eager to claim their prize.And then… they stopped.Dead in their tracks.There, standing calmly amid the golden light that poured from the breach, was a figure cloaked in black, arms crossed, eyes cold.Calvin Hudson.Alive.Waiting.“What—?!”“Is that—?”“He’s here—!”Panic rippled through the ranks. They’d thought him dead. Or crippled. But there he stood—untouched, unwavering.And then he moved.Calvin raised one hand.The earth answered.In an instant, the ground beneath the sold

  • The Blood in the Veins of War

    The clock was ticking.By this time tomorrow—at precisely 7 a.m.—the enemy would reach the core of the Fountain. The sacred heart of Barion’s underground sanctum. Calvin had known this for hours. Every update from the system had confirmed it. Every heartbeat felt heavier as the inevitable drew closer.He stood alone on the balcony of the upper sanctum, overlooking the vast city beneath the surface. Barion’s underground domain shimmered with magical lamplight and silent vigilance. Yet Calvin’s gaze did not register the beauty before him. His eyes were distant. Hollow.He wasn’t thinking about the battlefield.He was thinking about his father.His mind circled back to the conversation he had with the President of Barion—a conversation that had twisted a blade far deeper than the one that once pierced his gut. His father, Aldren Hudson, a decorated general and a man once idolized by the nation… hadn&rsq

  • The Quiet Before the Storm

    The mysterious man stood in the dim glow of President Lee’s war tent, his posture relaxed, his tone calm and methodical—an eerie contrast to the chaos outside.“President Lee,” he said softly, “do not concern yourself with the lack of resistance. War doesn’t always need screams and fire to be effective. In fact, the silence is an advantage.”Lee narrowed his eyes. “Advantage?” he barked, tossing a map onto the floor. “It’s boring. Lifeless. This is not what war should feel like.”“But that is precisely why we will win,” the mysterious man replied, stepping forward. “We are not being slowed. There are no rebels, no snipers in the shadows, no barricades. We are slicing through this land like a hot blade through silk. And soon, we will reach the very core of Barion—the source of Calvin’s power.”He gestured to the map on the floor, pointing to the deep

  • The Empty City

    Under the command of President Lee, the forces of Han Xian successfully infiltrated Barion’s territory. The mysterious man’s infiltration plan had worked flawlessly. No alarms were triggered, no resistance met them at the borders. The sentry towers were already abandoned. The gates stood ajar.Within hours, the flames of war began to devour the surface city.Missiles soared through the morning sky, exploding with surgical precision. Buildings collapsed into clouds of dust and debris. The once-pristine skyline of Barion twisted into jagged ruins, smoke coiling like funeral ribbons. The scent of concrete, metal, and scorched earth blanketed the air.It was brutal. Clean. Efficient. Exactly how President Lee liked it.He stood atop one of his mobile command tanks, binoculars in hand, his smirk gradually fading the longer he scanned the horizon.“No screams?” he muttered, narrowing his eyes. “No stampede of terrified citiz

  • Bloodline of Betrayal

    Though the System had worked tirelessly to seal wounds, regenerate muscle, and restore key energy channels, Calvin’s body remained fragile—still bound to the laws of mortality. For all his transcendent power, he was not immortal. Not yet. And the recent injury, with a blade forged from the world’s rarest metal embedded straight through his abdomen, had pushed him terrifyingly close to the edge.The System had done all it could. Now, it was the turn of human care.For days, Calvin lay on a bio-regeneration bed inside his private residence, his skin pale, his breaths slow but steady. The air smelled faintly of herbs and cooling salves, and silent medical drones hovered nearby, adjusting dosage and monitoring vitals.On the fourth day, just as the morning light broke through the frost-glazed windows, a small procession arrived outside the guarded estate.At the center of it: a tall man in plain linen robes, his hair tucked beneath a commone

  • Echoes of Blood and Memory

    The moment the mysterious man disappeared into the fog, leaving behind the sea-slicked ferry and the dying body of Calvin Hudson, the System awoke with full authority.A high-pitched tone shimmered in the air as if reality itself had been peeled open.[Warning: Host's vitals below critical threshold.][Manual override initiated. Emergency protocol—Phase Shift Transfer.]In a single breath, Calvin vanished from the ferry deck. His body, limp and soaked in blood, phased into pure light—absorbed into the hidden vaults of the System’s deepest layer. The space around where he lay went silent, as though the ocean held its breath.And then, as if he had never been there at all, Calvin was gone.***Within the sterile warmth of his private residence—a place the System had marked as a priority sanctum—Calvin rematerialized. He reappeared in a medical alcove lined with glowing diagnostic runes and suspended orbs of
