The heavy boots stomped loudly on the wooden floorboards above.

Caster Spellbound stayed perfectly still in the dark basement of the Gilded Rose. He knelt on the cold stone floor next to the dead body of his oldest friend, Dorrin the butler.

Next to Caster, the young water-apprentice named Leo was shaking violently. Leo hugged his knees, tears streaming down his dirty face.

Above their heads, the Twin Moons soldiers were shouting.

"Search every room!" a harsh voice yelled through the ceilin

    The red blood magic and the purple necrotic ash mixed together, creating a devastating, highly unstable ball of pure destruction. It was the same energy that had melted the solid stone fortress on the surface. And Elias was aiming it point-blank at Caster’s heart. "CASTER!" Sikoa screamed from across the cavern. She began to run toward them, ignoring the reality glitches. "Stay back!" Elias roared at her. Elias looked back at Caster. The madman smiled one final time. "Game over, old friend," Elias said. Elias unleashed the blast. The point-blank explosion of raw core energy was absolute devastation. A massive, thick beam of screaming red and freezing purple light erupted from Elias’s chest. It slammed directly into Caster at zero range. Caster’s eyes went wide. In the final fraction of a second, he desperately pulled every single tiny, remaining drop of his golden magic to the surface of his skin. He threw up a thin, frantic golden shield over his heart. The golden shield sha

    Thorpe gasped in surprise. "A lucky guess!" The air shifted above Caster’s head. Caster dropped to the floor, rolling smoothly across the cracked stone. A screaming red beam of blood magic shot over him, missing his back by an inch. He jumped up. He felt the vibrations in the floor. He felt the heavy, thudding footsteps of the cyborg approaching from his blind spot. Caster spun around. He thrust his golden sword forward into the empty space. The sword hit something solid. Caster opened his eyes. The reality glitch faded for a single second. The room returned to normal. Caster was standing exactly two feet away from Elias Thorpe. Caster’s golden, alchemically treated sword was buried deep inside Elias Thorpe’s right shoulder. It was the only part of Thorpe’s body that was still human flesh. The glowing blade cut through the red leather coat. It pierced deep into the muscle and bone. Golden light burned the corrupted blood inside the wound. Caster stared into Elias’s single g

    Caster was using the golden seed inside his chest. The golden magic was pure and powerful, but Caster’s human body was incredibly frail. Every time he moved with magical speed, his muscles tore. Every time he swung the sword, his heart stuttered. He was an old man burning his own life force just to stay in the game. But Elias Thorpe was a monster. The Planar Fusion Core in his chest gave him infinite energy. He did not get tired. His mechanical limbs did not feel muscle pain. And Thorpe was angry. He was tired of missing his target. "I will not let you dodge me anymore!" Thorpe screamed. The spinning red and purple core in Thorpe’s chest suddenly shrieked. It sounded like tearing metal. Thorpe raised his giant brass arm. He did not point it at Caster. He pointed it at the empty air in the middle of the room. Thorpe unleashed a massive blast of sick, twisted, gray planar magic. The magic hit the air. The fabric of reality in the cavern literally tore open. The rules of the ph

    Elias Thorpe let out a scream that shook the very foundation of the earth. "I am the god of this new world!" Thorpe roared. "You are nothing but an old ghost, Caster!"The half-machine madman launched himself forward. He did not run like a normal human. The heavy brass pistons in his mechanical left leg hissed loudly.The powerful metal leg pushed off the blue crystal floor. He shot through the air like a heavy cannonball. He flew directly toward Caster Spellbound. Caster stood in front of the Heart Alchemy Engine. The three heavy brass rods were humming. They were pulling the toxic red and purple magic out of the giant Central Node floating above. The machine was filtering the poison, saving reality. Caster knew he could not stay near the machine. If Elias Thorpe crashed into the brass rods, the engine would break. The world would instantly end. Caster had to move the fight away. Caster detached himself from the machine. He let go of the glowing copper wires. He stepped out of t

    "Ah, the loyal pets," Thorpe laughed. It sounded like grinding metal. "You two are very brave. And very stupid. Do you really think you can stop me? I am a walking dimension. I ate the Core Array. I survived the void. You are just meat.""We stopped your giant walking mountain," Sikoa sneered. "We threw bombs into your engine. You are not a god, Elias. You are just a broken clock."Thorpe’s face twisted in anger. The glass mask covering his brain hissed with red steam. "I am the new world!" Thorpe roared. Thorpe pointed his massive brass arm at the giant, floating white crystal behind Caster. "Look at it!" Thorpe shouted, his voice echoing off the high stone walls. "The Central Node! The blueprint of reality! For a thousand years, it was asleep! But now it is awake!"Thorpe took a heavy step forward. "You think you can stabilize it, Caster?" Thorpe mocked. "You think you can use your little brass rods to filter the magic and save the world? You are a fool!"Caster stepped past Sikoa

    "Look at my new army, Caster," Thorpe sneered through his glass mask. He pointed a heavy brass finger at the dozen silent monsters. "They do not ask questions. They do not feel fear. They do not betray me. They are perfect."The human mercenaries who had survived the blast stood up. There were nearly five hundred Glassview Enforcers and Crimson shock troopers in the cavern. They had come to kill Caster for gold. But now, they looked at Elias Thorpe and his terrifying Thralls. They realized that the real monster was right in front of them. "It is Elias Thorpe!" a Crimson captain yelled. "He has turned into a demon! He killed our friends and turned them into puppets!""Shoot him!" a Glassview soldier screamed. The human armies forgot about Caster. They forgot about the bounty. They raised their heavy rifles and pointed them at the giant machine-man. "Fire!" the commanders roared. Five hundred heavy guns went off at the same time. A massive wave of lead bullets, blue magical bolts,
