Kai stood still for a moment, staring at the fading space where Caleb had vanished. His hands were clenched so tight his knuckles cracked, and his jaw trembled with restrained rage. Caleb had run, that idiot ran away!

Coward.

Kai’s chest rose and fell as he battled the fury that surged inside him, every breath burned. Every heartbeat screamed for blood. And worst of all, he could see the faint distortion in space, the lingering echo of Caleb’s energy.

His third eye, glowing faintly above his brows, pulsed once more, revealing a clear path. A precise location, Caleb’s exact hiding spot, laid bare before him like a marked target waiting to be hunted.

He didn’t even hesitate. He raised his hand, fingers slicing through the air to tear a hole through reality and met him there and finished what he started. His divine aura swirled around him as the space began to split open...

“Let him be,” Zora’s voice came calmly, almost too calm.

His body froze mid-step and he turned to her, barely think

    Zora appeared back at the Blackwood family's estate with Zora and Kai on her shoulder."What's wrong with them?" Atlas quickly ran over inquiring what was wrong with the two, worry written all over his face.Especially Kai who looked all beat up. Blood all over him. Though there were no injuries on Kai and Abigail, the blood all over their bodies showed they had been injured, but somehow, it had healed.As to how they had done it, he had no idea about that and could only stare at Zora waiting for answers."Old man, you don't have to worry, there's nothing wrong with your grandson," Zora chuckled, giving Kai and Abigail to the maids who were waiting."Just place them on the bed and let them rest well, once they recovered their lost energy, they would wake up," Zora instructed and they nodded.Taking Kai and Abigail, the Maids hurriedly walked off. After all, this was the young master, though they didn't know what was happening, they didn't dare defy the orders.Besides, that woman, fro

  • 228: And He Ran

    The moment Kai’s third eye opened, the entire world fell quiet, really too quiet. The wind stopped. The ground stilled and the very air trembled, and Caleb… froze. His body locked up, stiff like a puppet with its strings cut, and his eyes widened in pure disbelief as the glowing eye fixated directly on him and it was like being stripped bare.The pressure didn’t just crush him, it exposed him. Every lie he ever told, every mask he ever wore, every secret buried deep in his bones felt dragged out under that gaze. His breaths shortened. He couldn’t look away, couldn’t breathe right or even think.His knees nearly buckled.Zora sat lazily nearby, arms crossed, watching the chaos unfold like she’d been waiting centuries for this exact moment. Her lips curved into a smirk and her voice sliced through the silence.“Aww… What’s with the face?” she teased, cocking her head slightly. “You look like you just realized you're not the main character of this story anymore.”Caleb’s jaw clenched, bu

  • 227: His Rage.

    The air around them split apart as Kai moved, and in that instant, a suffocating bloodlust rolled off him, heavy and sharp enough to choke anyone with a weaker spine. Zora, who had been lounging comfortably with Abigail in her arms, narrowed her eyes the moment that killing intent flared.Her usual smirk slipped for just a second, her brow furrowing slightly. It wasn’t the raw power that bothered her, it was the madness dripping from it, the unrestrained hunger for destruction that made it clear Kai was no longer fighting as a man but as something older, and dangerous. Still, she didn’t say anything, she simply tilted her head, stroked Abigail’s hair idly, and continued to watch like a queen in her private theater.Caleb, however, wasn’t cowed by that wave of hatred. No, instead he laughed. His own aura spiked violently, his body vibrating with power as he unleashed everything he had, the ground beneath his feet shattering from the surge. For every ounce of Kai’s rage, Caleb countere

  • 226: Awakened.

    Kai shook his head violently, eyes wide, breath uneven and body trembling as he faced Zora again. “I can’t,” he muttered, voice barely audible over the sound of Abigail’s body being slammed against the ground, over the gut-wrenching thud of Caleb’s fist cracking her ribs. “I can’t do that…”Zora, still standing with her arms folded, her expression unreadable, tilted her head lazily and replied, “Then she’ll die.” Her voice was calm, cruelly calm, like she wasn’t talking about a girl being beaten to death right in front of them but something as trivial as weather. “And I won’t be the one to save her. You will. Or you’ll watch her bleed out while doing nothing.”Kai’s head snapped back toward Abigail, just in time to see her scream as Caleb’s elbow drove into her spine. She coughed blood, her body folding over like a ragdoll as Caleb grabbed her hair, yanked her up again and growled something he probably thought sounded badass.Kai didn’t even hear the words anymore. All he saw was Abi

  • 225: Watch Her Die.

    Caleb staggered backwards, crashing into the floor with a grunt as if someone had yanked the ground from beneath him.Abigail stood there, frozen, her chest heaving, she hadn’t expected that, not even remotely. Her hands trembled, fingers curled into fists that had somehow just sent a man flying.What… What just happened?Caleb groaned, then pushed himself up, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. His eyes blazed with fury. “You little piece of..!”He didn’t even finish as he lunged towards Abigail who moved too.This time, not with panic or flailing limbs but with speed, and precision. Her arms lifted and blocked his incoming punch. Her foot pivoted on instinct, and her other hand slammed into his ribs, then another strike to his shoulder, then a spinning kick, so fast it blurred and cracked across his jaw.Caleb flew again, tumbling across the dirt like a broken toy and Zora, seated lazily on a rock nearby with one leg draped over the other, popped a snack into her mouth and
