The Greyhound bus terminal on the outskirts of North Las Vegas smelled like a mix of diesel, sweat, and broken dreams.

The building was half-destroyed. Its tin roof was riddled with holes from the magical meteor rain a week ago, and the walls were cracked, now patched up with blue tarps. But the terminal was alive. Crowded. Thousands of people, refugees, stranded tourists, and locals who had had enough, lined up in long queues to get tickets out of this cursed city.

  • Chapter 151. Interstice

    "Permanent disability."Those two words echoed through the grand yet deserted casino of The Interstice. The sound struck the mahogany-paneled walls, bounced off the crystal chandeliers, and came crashing back into Oliver's ears.Oliver was still sprawled across the floor, staring up at the ceiling painted with constellations.His left leg, from the knee down, was gone.Erased by The Eraser's white staff.There was no blood. No exposed bone. Only empty space ending in a smooth, chalk-white severance.But his brain refused to accept reality. The nerves in his thigh kept sending frantic signals, searching for toes that had been deleted from the Source Code of the universe itself. The phantom pain made Oliver's stomach muscles cramp, cold sweat dripping from his temples in heavy beads."I can't run," Oliver muttered. A bitter laugh escaped his dry lips. "I'm a Glitch Walker, but I don't have legs to walk with. That's a pretty terrible joke, Universe."Lady Luck still stood nearby, gracefu

  • Chapter 150. Emergency Portal

    The interdimensional corridor was nothing like the beautiful passages from science fiction.There were no shooting stars, no aesthetic tunnels of light. This place was a vortex of raw data, corrupted fragments of code, and gravitational forces pulling against each other from billions of universes. It felt like being thrown into a giant washing machine filled with shattered glass and barbed wire.The marble slab carrying Oliver and Elara through the boundary of Aurelia's reality disintegrated within five seconds. The solid stone turned into cosmic dust, unable to withstand the pressure of the Void.Oliver and Elara were thrown free, drifting through a storm of multicolored pixels."Mhh... mph!"Oliver groaned through clenched teeth. His jaw was cramping badly. His teeth were still locked around the blue-violet Compass Shard glowing inside his mouth. He didn't dare open it, afraid the crystal would be swept away by the dimensional winds.But his body had already stopped cooperating.His

  • Chapter 149. Losing a Leg

    That white light had no temperature.It wasn't hot like Cherubim plasma. It wasn't cold like Sloth's ice.It possessed only one quality.Absolute.In the final thousandth of a second before The Eraser's white staff pierced his right hand, Dealer Oliver's brain made a decision that violated every instinct of human self-preservation.He knew that if his golden hand was erased, he would never be able to hold the Compass Shard.If he couldn't hold the Shard, he couldn't open a portal.And if he couldn't open a portal, they would all die here.So Oliver twisted his waist in midair.He forced the last reserves of strength through his spine, pulling his right hand back a few precious millimeters. In exchange, he threw the lower half of his body forward, using it as a shield for his hand.SWUUUSH.The white beam from The Eraser's staff sliced through the air.It missed Oliver's golden hand.But it didn't miss his leg.The beam swept cleanly through Oliver's left leg, the only intact leg he st

  • Chapter 148. Chase Through a Collapsing Sky

    Gravity is a bastard that never offers discounts. If you fall, you fall. No negotiations.Oliver hurtled through the scorching air as Icarus Tower collapsed around him.Marble debris weighing dozens of tons, razor-sharp shards of crystal glass, and molten streams of golden metal rained down alongside him, creating a localized meteor shower across the skies of Aurelia, now stained a sickly purple.But out of all that chaos, only one thing dominated Oliver's consciousness.Pain."HAAAAAAAARGH!"Oliver screamed at the top of his lungs as he plummeted through the air.The wind slamming into his face at terminal velocity wasn't enough to drown out his cries.His left leg, from the knee down, had just been completely erased by The Eraser.There was no blood spraying everywhere. No flesh torn apart.Only absolute nonexistence.Yet the nerves at the base of his thigh continued sending frantic signals to his brain, searching for nerve endings that had been erased from existence.The phantom pa

  • Chapter 147. Glitch Eclipse

    If you've ever experienced a power outage while trapped inside an elevator, multiply that feeling of horror by a million.The moment the Compass Shard was pulled from Elara's brain, The Eternal Sun, the artificial star that had bathed Aurelia in holy light for centuries, went into convulsions.It didn't simply go dark.That would have been better.Instead, the sun short-circuited.Its once blinding, milk-white surface became infected with spreading patches of deep violet, crawling across it like a virus. Its texture fractured, spewing giant pixelated artifacts into the sky. The light descending upon the world was no longer the warm glow that flooded the brain with dopamine.It had become Dark Ultraviolet radiation.Neon-purple light that stabbed at the eyes and made skin feel as though it were being scraped raw with coarse sandpaper.A Glitch Eclipse.Oliver stood atop the cracking glass floor of Icarus Tower, his silver eyes narrowed against the painful UV glare.Through the transpar

  • Chapter 146. The Third Path

    The Glass Throne Chamber, which had moments ago been as hot as a nuclear reactor furnace, suddenly froze.Not with ice, but with absence.The cold that followed The Eraser's footsteps drained every trace of thermal energy from the surrounding area. The marble-glass walls cracked instantly, filling the room with sharp snapping sounds.The three most absurd powers in the Multiverse now stood together inside a circular chamber on the verge of collapse.At the center stood The High Luminary, the God of Light, blazing like a star in the middle of a supernova.At the doorway stood The Eraser, a Vantablack digital angel of death holding a white staff that erased reality itself.And in the corner stood Oliver Warner, a half-Glitch human whose body flickered violently as it struggled to hold itself together, shielding a blind girl whose brain had been turned into a Wi-Fi router.A cosmic Mexican standoff."Your guests don't know how to knock, Tofu Head?" Oliver cursed. His breath emerged as si
