Chapter 483
It was a pain that words could not describe. It was not a physical fire burning Caster’s skin. It was a structural fire burning the very center of who he was.Every single Tower mage has a magical structure inside them. It is the framework that allows them to touch mana, cast spells, and feel the energy of the world. It is a part of their body, just like a heart or a lung.Caster felt that magical structure catch on fire."Ahhhhh!" Caster screamed.It was the loudest, most painful scream he had ever made. He dropped his hands. He fell to his knees on the cracked blue stone of the Observatory floor.He grabbed his chest, tearing at his dirty gray robes.He could feel the black diamond core inside him—the core he had forged from the Ash Plane—shattering into a million pieces of hot dust. The pale, inverted white fire that had surrounded his body suddenly went out.His skin turned from pitch-black back to its normal, pale, wrinkled human color.The pain was absolute. It was the feeling o

The giant, spinning wheel of light hovered high above the broken world. It was the Runic Inversion Sigil. It was the impossible magic. Caster Spellbound pushed both of his burning hands forward. He poured every drop of his power into the massive spell. The sigil was made of pitch-black darkness, pale gray ash, and bright, pure starlight. It spun so fast that it hummed with a loud, beautiful sound.Down below, the capital city was trapped in a nightmare. The wave of deadly decay was rushing through the streets. The heavy, dark consequence of the Ash Warden was ready to erase everything."Now!" Caster roared. His voice was not human. It was the loud, grinding voice of a god.He triggered the Inversion Sigil.The spinning wheel of light flashed. It did not shoot a beam of fire. It did not create a hard wall. It released a massive, invisible wave of pure, reversed energy. It was a wave of healing, a wave of release, a wave of life.The invisible wave washed down the mountain. It hit the

The wave of decay was almost at the edge of the city. It had turned thousands of homes to gray dust. "Turn," Caster commanded the living sigil. He pushed both of his hands forward. The massive, spinning Runic Inversion Sigil flared with a blinding, incredible light.It did not shoot a beam like a telescope. It acted like a giant projector. It projected a massive, glowing copy of itself into the sky directly over the entire capital city.A giant wheel of black, gray, and silver light hovered over the falling ruins of the Sage Tower. It spun perfectly.The invisible wave of deadly entropy hit the giant, glowing sigil.And then, the impossible happened.The Runic Inversion Sigil did not block the decay. It caught the decay in its spinning gears, and it flipped it backward.It turned the law of entropy completely inside out.Decay is the process of things breaking down into nothing. The sigil grabbed that breaking energy, and it turned it into expenditure. It turned death into pure, raw

"The Runic Inversion Sigil must be alive," Caster said. "It must be written in motion. It must spin."Lysane understood. Her brilliant mind grasped the complex math instantly. "A three-dimensional rune. A living gear made of magic.""Yes," Caster said. "And I am going to draw it right now."He stepped into the exact center of the blue stone platform. He stood directly under the broken brass telescope. Above him, the stars shone brightly.Caster raised both of his arms. He spread his fingers wide.He was going to do the impossible. He was going to rewrite the oldest law of nature."I need three things," Caster said. His grinding voice echoed across the mountain peak. "I need an anchor. I need a counterweight. And I need a stabilizer."Caster closed his eyes."First, the anchor," he declared.He reached into his own chest with his mind. He grabbed the new, pitch-black diamond mana core that he had forged from the Ash Plane. It was heavy. It was unbreakable.He pushed the power of his bl

The Sage Tower fell. Millions of tons of pure white marble crashed into the dark earth. The noise was louder than thunder. It was louder than a hundred thunderstorms happening at the exact same time. The ground shook so violently that people in the streets of the capital city were thrown into the air.Thick, blinding clouds of white dust and gray ash exploded upward. The city was completely swallowed by the smoke of its own destruction.Deep under the mountain of broken rocks, Caster Spellbound stood in the dark.He was not crushed. The heavy marble blocks could not touch him. He was no longer a mortal man made of flesh and bone. He was a being of pure, inverted fire and dark ash. The heavy stones simply passed through his glowing body or healed themselves when they came close.He had done it. He had drawn the Unfinished Rune. He had swallowed the explosion of the Mana Core. He had saved the city from the magical bomb.His human mind was almost completely gone. He was cold. He was ab

"I see it now," Caster whispered into the empty air. He sent his final thoughts up the orange rope to Lysane. "Lysane. The Tower forced the magic to stay awake. The Warden just wants the magic to sleep."“What are you talking about?” Lysane asked frantically. “Caster, focus! The core is about to blow!”"If you fight a river by building a dam," Caster explained, his mind perfectly clear and perfectly calm, "the water builds up. The pressure grows. Eventually, the dam breaks, and the flood destroys the whole valley. That is what Archmage Vane did. That is why the core is going to explode."Caster raised his hands. The pale white fire burned brilliantly against the dark sky."But you do not have to fight a river," Caster said. "If you dig a new trench... if you give the water a safe path to the ocean... it will flow exactly where you want it to go. It will not destroy the valley. It will just find its rest."“Caster, you are running out of time! Your soul is collapsing!” Lysane screamed.
