A king protects his castle, but a queen is the fire that keeps it warm. When you threaten her home, that warmth turns into an inferno.

The hypersonic missile made no sound until it was too late. Striking at Mach 15, the black superweapon slipped past the Dragon Capital's blue electromagnetic shields as if they were air. It crashed directly into the highest tower of the central keep, hitting the royal suite's exact coordinates.

KRA-KOOM!

The explosion was devastating. A massive, blinding fire

  • The Universal Anchor

    The Core FusionA dead star does not detonate with fire; it detonates with physics.When Kaelen attempted to thrust the enormous black sword into the Sahara's visible ground, the shattered glass floor started to collapse toward the ground. The weapon's localized gravity field expanded with its heavy force, which caused the ground to be violently consumed while the weapon ripped a huge sinkhole that extended toward the Earth's core. The planet's core would be crushed within seconds, which would result in the Earth splitting into two pieces.Alex hovered in the air while the six wings of solid golden Aether beat against the chaotic, pulling winds. The pure, infinite creation energy of the Heavens burned within his chest. His right hand held the heavyweight, dense terrestrial black diamond which came from the Earth.The sword needed to be flown into space, but he didn't have time to do that. The shield needed to be built, but he lacked time for that."If one core isn't enough," Alex grow

  • The Celestial Ascendant

    The Archangel's GiftThe most powerful cosmic magic exists through voluntary human sacrifices. Valerius the former commander of the Heavenly Swarm lay dying on the shattered glass surface of the Sahara. The Archangel showed no signs of defeat as he pressed his trembling glowing palm over the gaping bloody cavern in Alex's chest. He appeared to be in a complete state of tranquility.Valerius spoke the name Alex with a voice that carried his final upper realm harmonic sound. The Earth cannot hold you therefore you should take the Heavens.Valerius cast a healing spell through a sudden blinding flash of pure white-gold light. He transferred his complete Aether core the highest form of Celestial creation into the empty chest of the mortal King.Alex gasped as his eyes opened wide and the divine spark appeared at the spot where the terrestrial diamond used to sit.Valerius smiled a faint genuine smile. His body began to break apart as he became illuminated from within his body. The Archan

  • The Stolen Heart

    The ExtractionAnd there is a basic principle of the universe: gravity always triumphs.Alex strained every last bit of his will power into his mortal flesh, his muscles tearing and his bones groaning as he held back the pitch-black blade of the Ashen King. But he was not fighting the sword; he was fighting the star that had fallen and was bound in the sword. The gravitational attraction was absolute, local and voracious.It was not tugging on the arms of Alex. It was riveted to the heaviest thing on the continent--the terrestrial black diamond cemented together to his sternum."Hold...!" Alex screamed and the blood spurted out of his eyes and nose as he attempted to order the stone to remain.But the stone was only a conduit; it was not loyal to the physics of a dead star. The diamond started to violently shake, tearing upwards along the ribcage of Alex.SCHLLCK!The scream of tearing flesh and breaking bone rang through the burning battlefield. With a sickening, agonizing rip, the t

  • The Sands of Glass

    The Global DeploymentThe Dragon Continent did not wait for the apocalypse to come to its shores. A battlefield needs a command from its true king to obtain proper control.Alex took control of the remaining heavy transport fleet after he succeeded in breaking the United Global Council's invasion. The massive terrestrial drop-ships which had been sent to conquer the Dragon Capital now carried the ultimate unified army across their entire body. The Terrestrial human soldiers who had just hours ago fought against the Silver Phalanx now stood side-by-side with the Vanguard Knights.General Talon stood in the bay of the lead ship while the armada flew over the Mediterranean at hypersonic speeds. He flexed his hands to see the terrifying new hybrid combat gear which Old Ghost had created. The armor pulsed with the indestructible golden light of the Heavens yet was laced with the consuming pitch-black rot of the Abyss which all anchored by the heavy brutal iron of the Earth.The pilot yelle

  • The Crimson Comet

    The Stargazer's DreadThe experience of observing a storm develop on the horizon stands in contrast with the experience of observing a mountain collapse from the sky.The leaders who assembled in the Dragon Capital's destroyed command bunker saw Old Ghost project the solar system through holograms which cast a blood-red light on their faces. The object demonstrated a rapid movement which exceeded the normal speed limits of astrophysical phenomena.Ghost whispered that "the object just passed Jupiter" as he used his datapad to type at high speed. "Alex, the gas giant orbit was crossed by the object within three hours of its time. The object moves at an extremely high speed because of its huge mass which requires that amount of speed to reach that speed.Alex experienced the physics through his body even though he needed to understand the mathematical concepts.His chest bore a black diamond which measured the size of a fist and it began to vibrate with violent force which created excru

  • The Archangel's Return

    The Unexpected AllyThe time appeared to have come to a complete standstill in the ruined obsidian courtyard.The smooth, black tactical nuclear missile, which would vaporize the entire Dragon Capital and turn the western seaboard into radioactive glass, hung suspended in mid-air. It was a few inches off the ground, its hypersonic swing fully stopped by one, radiant hand.Valerius was standing, without difficulty, in the air beneath the warhead, with six wonderful wings of pure, golden Celestial light, flanking him.The old Archangel of the Heavens was not like the fanatic general who had once stormed this very courtyard. His golden armour was tarnished, his celestial halo was shadowed and his eyes bore a heavy, weary look.Valerius looked down at the terrified Global Council General in his powered exoskeleton, then glanced over at Alex, who was standing with his glowing black diamond chest and jagged obsidian leg.You really gave the place the go, terrestrial," Valerius smirked, his
