Three hours slipped by as quietly as a shadow at dusk.

Zora had dozed off somewhere between her fifth meat skewer and the sixth, her pale face resting against the sofa, rising and falling softly with her breathing. By the time she woke up, blinking groggily and stretching her limbs, Kai hadn’t moved an inch, he was still seated in the center of the room, legs crossed, his breathing steady, his body glowing faintly with spiritual light.

But something was different now.

A straight, delicate line had formed right in the middle of his forehead, so thin at first, it looked like a faint scar but it pulsed with energy, almost like it was alive and with each passing minute, the line deepened, stretching further, as if something underneath was trying to claw its way out.

Kai clenched his jaw, his fists tightening on his knees, the pain he'd been feeling was crazy, sharp, searing but this time, he didn’t scream, he’d been through worse, he had already survived the madness of being stabbed in th

  • 167: Even If It's The Devil Himself...

    Kai’s fists curled so tightly the bones cracked, his aura continued to surge like a dam breaking, thick, heavy, laced with bloodlust. The very air around him distorted, rippling with pressure.Then came Zora’s voice, casual as ever. “Hey, dumbass. I told you to use the eye, not choke me out with your stupid aura.”Kai exhaled, dragging in control like it was chained to his spine. The golden third eye flickered once more before sealing shut at the centre of his forehead.Silence returned.His jaw tightened as he swallowed the fury, choosing violence, but not yet.He sighed, the truth was, he was drained, not weak, not broken, just tired from holding back so damn much.Zora glanced at him from the corner, arms folded, face unreadable. “You’ll only get one full sweep like that. Next time, you’ll be working off your own energy.” She yawned like she hadn’t just turned him into a walking god. “Don’t run out, or you’ll fry yourself.”He nodded. “Got it.”“Good. Now go save your little girlfr

  • 166: The Eye That Sees All

    Kai stilled as realization hit him, so she hadn’t been stopping him, she had wanted to prepare him, forcing him to activate the eye properly, on her own damn terms and here he’d been, barking at her like she was the enemy.He felt stupid.No, scratch that, he felt played. Zora had manipulated the entire situation so subtly, so effortlessly, he hadn’t even realized it until now. She’d slapped him, stabbed him, tortured him and now she was yawning like none of it mattered.And honestly? He had to respect that level of chaos.Still, before he could even ask her who the hell she really was or what her game was...Smack!Her palm landed on the back of his head again.“You thinking again?” she asked, voice dry. “You wanna explode your brain for real this time, or you gonna get to work?”“Don’t stand there like a confused squirrel,” Zora groaned, her voice muffled with sleep. “I need to nap. You need to see. So close those damn eyes and get to work.”Kai muttered something under his breath,

  • 165: No One Can Hide.

    Kai took in a deep breath, hand still pressed to his head, the sting of that cosmic migraine still echoing deep in his skull. A million questions swirled in his mind. What did I see? Who the hell is Zora? What did my eye just do? Why did looking at her hurt so much?He opened his mouth, ready to unleash every one of those thoughts despite Zora warning him not to question her.But Zora sensing his intent raised a single brow and lazily lifted a finger to point at him without even turning her head. “Don’t even think about it, I told you not to bother me with your questions, I'm really not in the mood.”Her tone was calm, but that one sentence slammed Kai’s mouth shut.He groaned softly and sank back against the wall, still breathing heavily, eyes flickering with that same golden-blue hue from earlier. The silence that followed was thick, loaded with the weight of questions left unspoken and confusion he couldn't process yet.Zora stretched her legs across the couch and finally looked a

  • 163: The Seal of Sight

    Hearing Zora’s words, Kai’s brow furrowed deeply, his lips parted as he tried to comprehend what she just said.“You want me to open the real Third Eye?” he asked, voice low, still hoarse from screaming earlier. “How the hell am I supposed to do that?”Zora didn’t answer him immediately, she simply raised her chin and pointed at the scroll lying open on the floor, its old surface fluttering slightly from the energy still lingering in the room.“The scroll,” she said flatly. “You already have everything you need.”Kai followed her finger, then crouched and picked up the parchment, the paper still felt warm in his hand, humming faintly, almost as if it were alive, he held it in both hands, staring down at the lines of text now glowing faintly under his golden eyes.He blinked in surprise.This time, the words weren’t too harsh, his eyes didn’t sting or throb, there was no pain at all, just clarity, perfect, overwhelming clarity.“It’s working…” he murmured, eyes scanning every brushstro

  • 162: The Pain of Awakening

    Kai’s scream tore through the room, raw, wild and animalistic as the blade twisted mercilessly inside his eye, and a sickening crack followed as blood gushed down the right side of his face it soaked his neck, stained his clothes, and dripped in heavy, red splats onto the floor.Zora didn’t flinch at his scream, her hand still gripped the dagger buried in his eye, wrist firm and cold like she was tightening a screw, not skewering someone's soul and then pulled it out and dropped it. “Activate your cultivation technique,” she said coolly, like this wasn’t the most brutal thing she’d ever done. “Now, focus the energy directly into your eye unless you wanna keep crying like a newborn.”Kai’s mind was foggy, pain clouded every thought, every breath, his mouth opened, and all that escaped was another broken scream, hoarse and guttural, but her words pushed through the haze of pain.Through clenched teeth and clenched fists, Kai tried, he summoned his inner energy, the core flow within hi
