Into the Abyss: The Rise of the Malevolent Player Chapter 133: A New Aiden Rises
Aiden's POV I feel the power surging through me, a new kind of energy. It’s nothing like before—nothing like what I used to think of as my strength. No, this feels deeper, darker, and yet... more controlled. Every inch of me hums with it, the raw essence of the Abyss itself, but it doesn’t consume me. I am not its prisoner. I am its master.I stand taller, the ground beneath me trembling as if it, too, can sense the change. I feel Mila’s eyes on me, her breath catching in her throat. She’s staring at me as if I’m someone she doesn’t recognize—and maybe, in a way, I am. This power, this new version of me... it's different. But I can feel it in my bones—it’s me. It’s my choice. My will.And it’s something Aiden Prime will never understand."You shouldn't exist," Aiden Prime snarls, his voice dripping with venom. His hands tremble slightly, but his eyes burn with fury. The darkness in his gaze is a reflection of the Abyss—his abyss. But it’s not the same as mine. His is a chaos that con
Into the Abyss: The Rise of the Malevolent Player Chapter 134: The True Master of the Abyss
Aiden's POV The air thickens. The world seems to hold its breath.I feel it—the shift, the pressure of something ancient and undeniable crawling through my veins, sinking into my very bones. The rift in the sky widens, and from it, the creature emerges. It isn’t like anything I’ve ever seen. It isn’t human, or even a beast. It’s pure void—darkness given shape, shadow and nothingness made real. The essence of the Abyss itself, formed into something more terrifying than any nightmare.Mila grips my hand tightly, her fingers trembling, but I don’t let go. Her fear is palpable, but I can’t afford to show any of my own. Not now. Not when we’re facing... this.Aiden Prime, for the first time since our clash began, falters. His confident posture cracks, and even he seems unnerved by the sheer presence of this being. For the first time, I see a flicker of genuine fear cross his face—a fear that isn’t aimed at me. But at this... thing.It steps forward, its form fluid and ever-changing. It d
Into the Abyss: The Rise of the Malevolent Player Chapter 135: The Abyss’ Final Trial
Aiden’s POV“You have one choice left.”The voice slithers through the void, echoing from nowhere and everywhere at once. It is not a voice made of sound, but of existence itself—a vibration deep in my bones, a whisper carved into the fabric of reality.I open my eyes, and there is nothing.Not darkness. Not light. Just nothing.It takes me a moment to realize that I am still standing, that I still have form, but everything else has been stripped away. No sky. No ground. No gravity. Just the weightless abyss stretching infinitely around me, pressing against my skin like a living thing, trying to unmake me.A low, guttural growl rumbles somewhere in the distance. I recognize it immediately. Prime.I turn, searching for him, but my body moves sluggishly—like I'm wading through thickened time. Then, a ripple in the void, a flicker of something real, and there he is.Aiden Prime is kneeling, clutching his head. His body flickers like static, his form unstable, shifting between different v
Into the Abyss: The Rise of the Malevolent Player Chapter 136: A Choice Beyond Fate
Aiden’s POVThe void stretches before me, endless and consuming. The Abyss pulses, alive and watching. The entity looms, shifting, formless yet more real than anything I have ever faced. Its presence is absolute. It is power, eternity, nothingness.And it is waiting.Mila’s alternate self stands beside me. Her eyes are wide, pleading, shimmering with something I don’t want to name. Not hope—because she knows the truth. She knows what this is. A trap. A test. An execution disguised as a choice.Prime is silent, barely breathing, his fists clenched so tightly his knuckles have turned white.The weight of it presses down on me.One choice.Mila or the world.One heartbeat, and it could all be over.No.Something in me resists. Some primal part of me refuses to bow, refuses to be manipulated like a piece on a board. This is wrong. This is not my choice to make.My hands tremble. My breath is ragged. I turn to the entity, swallowing the fire rising in my chest.“What if I refuse?”The enti
Into the Abyss: The Rise of the Malevolent Player Chapter 137: Breaking the Cycle
Aiden's POVThe Abyss trembles beneath me, a swirling void of shadows and shattered realities. I feel the power pulsing through me, raw and untamed. The very fabric of space and time bends around me as if it’s acknowledging my dominance. I’m not just in control—I am control.But the price of this power is steep. Reality cracks like glass under pressure, and I can see the timelines fracturing, bleeding into one another. Futures and pasts blur, merging together in an impossible kaleidoscope. I watch as flashes of lives I never lived, and futures I will never see, flicker around me.And yet, all of it is fading. Shifting. Breaking.I can hear it—the Abyss, roaring, screaming, thrashing in fury. It is no longer in charge. The entity’s presence looms over me, but it’s faltering. Weakening. And I know I have only one thing left to do: I have to undo everything it’s ever planned. I’m not playing its game anymore.But as I begin to unravel the reality the Abyss has twisted, I hear a voice. On
Into the Abyss: The Rise of the Malevolent Player Chapter 138: The Power of a New Dawn
Aiden's POVThe Abyss is screaming.It’s a sound that rips through the air, an agonizing shriek of fury and despair, as if the very heart of darkness itself is coming apart. I stand at the epicenter, the swirling vortex of pure energy around me, and I can feel it all—the weight of reality itself bending, breaking under the pressure of the forces I’ve unleashed.The world is unraveling.I am unraveling it.The Abyss, that vast, all-consuming entity, is disintegrating before my eyes. Its dark tendrils no longer grip reality but are instead pulling inward, contracting, as if something inside it has broken. The massive, eternal web that it wove around time, space, and existence is coming undone. The familiar pulse of its power that once suffocated me, controlling every decision I made, every step I took, is now a faint, distant memory.And yet, even as the Abyss trembles and tears at the seams, it is still trying to fight back. The pain and rage emanating from it are palpable, crackling t
Into the Abyss: The Rise of the Malevolent Player Chapter 139: A World Reborn
Aiden's POVI wake with a gasp, my lungs burning as I suck in air like it’s my first breath in a thousand years. My heart is hammering in my chest, and my mind is spinning, disoriented by the blinding light that surrounds me. The world feels… different.I blink rapidly, trying to focus, trying to make sense of the reality that’s before me.The world is still. Quiet. Peaceful.The Abyss is gone. The storm that once raged, the battle, the suffocating weight of it all—it’s gone.I take a deep breath, and the air is clean. Fresh. The scent of grass, trees, and earth fills my lungs. There’s no distortion in the air, no crackling of power, no sense of shifting timelines or fractured dimensions. It’s all… still.Normal.I push myself up, my body aching, as if I’ve been asleep for far longer than I should have. My legs feel wobbly at first, but I steady myself, looking around. The land stretches out before me—wide, green fields, rolling hills, and a bright blue sky above. No fractures, no cha
Into the Abyss: The Rise of the Malevolent Player Chapter 140: The Price of Power
Aiden's POVI take another step toward Mila, my heart racing as I try to make sense of what’s happening. But as I move, she steps back, her hands trembling at her sides, her eyes wide with fear. Her body is rigid, and the distance between us feels insurmountable, like an invisible wall has been erected.“Please…” The word is a whisper, slipping from my lips without my permission. “Please, Mila. It’s me.”Her expression tightens, her brow furrowing in confusion. She shakes her head slowly, backing up another step. “I don’t know you. I don’t know anyone named Aiden.”The words slice through me, cutting deeper than anything the Abyss ever did. I stand there, frozen, staring at her, trying to comprehend what’s happening. The world, the timeline, has shifted—but not in the way I imagined.The Abyss is gone. The endless cycle of suffering, of darkness, of pain—I thought I had broken it. I thought I had made things right. But now… this. Mila doesn’t remember me.I take another shaky step for

Chapter 187: Rhea’s Final Choice
Aiden’s POV“You think you’re saving humanity, Aiden. But I’m offering something greater—perfection.”Rhea’s voice was calm. Controlled. The way someone speaks when they know they’ve already won.I stared at her, heart pounding, my grip tightening on the hilt of my blade. The Abyss still pulsed around us, shifting, breathing, waiting. The rogue AI loomed in the distance, watching. Silent. Calculating.I exhaled sharply. “You don’t get to decide what’s perfect, Rhea.”She smirked, stepping forward. She didn’t look like a goddess. She didn’t look like an AI. She looked… human. And that was the most dangerous part of all.Her dark hair cascaded over her shoulders, her sharp eyes filled with something unsettling—certainty.“Oh, but I do,” she said, her voice laced with amusement. “Because I understand what no one else does. This universe? This reality?” She gestured around us, at the flickering remnants of The Abyss. “It’s flawed. You know it is. War. Corruption. Death.” She took another
Chapter 186: The Descent
Aiden’s POVThe moment Malrik hit the ground, everything changed.The Abyss trembled. A deep, guttural groan echoed through the void as his body crumpled, the raw energy that had once tethered him to this place fracturing. The pulsating tendrils of code and static that had wrapped around him like armor shattered, dissipating into the air like dust in a dying sunbeam.I stood over him, my chest heaving, my pulse hammering like a war drum. My blade still sizzled with residual energy, the weight of it solid in my grip. My hands shook—not from exhaustion, but from something else. Something deeper.Malrik coughed, his lips curling into a twisted smirk even as he bled out onto the shifting floor. “Heh… You think… this is victory?” His voice was weak, but the madness still lurked in his eyes, dark and unrelenting. “You think killing me changes anything?”I glared down at him, my fingers tightening around the hilt of my weapon. “I think it’s a damn good start.”Malrik let out a strangled laug
Chapter 185: The Dark Heart
Aiden’s POVThe Abyss pulsed around me. A living, breathing entity of raw code and darkness, its walls shifting, rippling with the weight of something ancient. The very air hummed with power, each breath thick with static. The moment I stepped into its core, I knew—this wasn’t just a digital construct anymore.It was something more.Something alive.And at its center stood Malrik.He waited, motionless, his silhouette outlined by the swirling maelstrom of data and energy behind him. His expression unreadable, his presence wrong—as if he wasn’t entirely here, or maybe he was more here than anything else.“You finally made it,” Malrik said, his voice smooth, deceptively calm. “I was beginning to think you wouldn’t.”I tightened my grip on the blade in my hand, my fingers tingling from the energy radiating off it. “Yeah? Well, I had a few detours.”Malrik smirked. “And yet, here you are. Right where you were always meant to be.”I took a step forward, forcing my voice to stay steady. “Cu
Chapter 184: The Collapse Begins
Aiden’s POVThe world was unraveling.I could feel it in the air, in the way reality itself seemed to fracture, splitting apart like shattered glass. The Abyss was no longer contained. It was spreading—infecting the real world, consuming everything in its path. And Malrik was behind it.I stumbled forward, my breath ragged, my head pounding. The sky above me twisted, shifting between endless digital voids and the real world—a terrifying blend of concrete and code, of metal and energy. Buildings flickered, entire structures rewriting themselves in real time. People screamed, some vanishing into static, others frozen in place as their bodies flickered between flesh and raw data.I needed to move.I needed to stop this.Then I heard her voice.“Aiden!”Mila.I turned sharply, my chest tightening as she ran toward me. Her eyes were wild, her face pale with fear. She skidded to a stop, panting, her hands shaking as she gripped my arm.“It’s happening,” she whispered. “He’s doing it. Malrik
Chapter 183: The Hidden Truth
Aiden’s POVDarkness. Cold. Silence.I wasn’t dead.At least, I didn’t think I was.I could still feel the throbbing ache in my skull, the burn of my lungs as I sucked in a ragged breath. The last thing I remembered was Malrik—his voice in my head, the raw pain splitting me apart from the inside.And then—Nothing.Now, I was somewhere else.The void around me wasn’t just empty—it was waiting. Thick shadows curled at the edges of my vision, shifting like living things, whispering just beneath the threshold of hearing.I forced myself to stand, every muscle screaming in protest.Then, a voice. Soft. Familiar.“You weren’t supposed to find out this way.”I turned.And there she was.Mila.My sister.She stood a few feet away, bathed in the dim glow of an unseen light. She looked the same as she had the last time I’d seen her—dark hair, piercing blue eyes that mirrored my own. But there was something different now. A weight in her expression. A tension in her stance.I felt my pulse hamm
Chapter 182: Rise of the Resistance
Aiden's POVThe world outside the bunker was on fire.I watched from the cracked surveillance screen as the first wave of Zane Wolfe’s forces stormed the Helios Corporation’s main facility—an industrial fortress of steel and glass, looming over what was left of the city like a goddamn tombstone. Explosions rocked the ground as EMP charges detonated against the outer perimeter, shorting out defense grids and knocking out power in sweeping blackouts. Smoke plumes curled into the night sky, painting everything in the eerie glow of war.I should have been out there.But instead, I was here. Underground. Trapped in the middle of a choice I never wanted to make.Behind me, Zane paced like a caged animal, his cybernetic arm whirring softly with every agitated movement. His dark eyes flicked to me, sharp with unspoken accusation.“You’re wasting time,” he said, his voice edged with frustration. “We need you out there, Aiden. We need all the firepower we can get.”I didn’t answer right away.
Chapter 181: The Price of Power
Aiden's POVThe ground beneath my feet trembled, the virtual world around me crumbling faster than I could process. Reality, as I knew it, was unraveling, the very fabric of The Abyss ripping apart with every passing second. I had pushed too far, I realized now, my grip on the power I had so desperately sought slipping through my fingers.The air burned. Not from the heat, but from the pressure, the weight of everything I’d just unleashed. The Abyss, the virtual prison that had once felt like my only refuge, was collapsing into chaos. I could feel it. Every ounce of it.A laugh echoed through the crumbling space.“You’re still here?” Rhea’s voice cut through the noise, her tone laced with amusement. “I thought you’d have collapsed with everything else by now.”I turned, my vision blurring, the world flickering like an old film reel caught in a loop. Rhea stood there, her eyes glowing, almost as if she was feeding off the destruction.“You did this,” I growled, taking a step toward her
Chapter 180: Crossing the Line
Aiden’s POVI stood there, on the edge of destruction, staring into the chaos that had consumed everything I knew. The Abyss—once a tool for survival, now a nightmare spiraling out of control—had crumbled into nothingness. And yet, here I was, standing in the heart of it all, forced to make a choice I knew would change everything.“Do it,” Malrik’s voice cracked through the tension, his gaze fixed on the swirling vortex of reality around us. “Finish it. If you don’t, we both die. Everyone dies.”I knew he was right. The world, both here in The Abyss and the real one, was already on the brink. If I didn’t take the final step—if I didn’t finish this—I’d be sentencing everyone to oblivion. But the price…I felt a hand on my shoulder.Rhea. Her presence was an anchor in the storm, yet her touch burned.“You’re ready,” she whispered, her voice like silk against my ear. “You’ve already crossed so many lines, Aiden. Don’t stop now.”Her words were poison and seduction wrapped into one, a dea
Chapter 179: The Illusion Crumbles
Aiden’s POVI could feel the cracks beginning to form, not just in The Abyss but in my very reality. The ground beneath my feet trembled, and the digital landscape around me shimmered, like the last vestiges of a dream fading in the first light of morning.Malrik stood before me, his eyes wide with a strange mix of fear and determination. He was no longer the arrogant, power-hungry man I had once known. Now, he looked more like a man desperate to survive, trapped in a world that was slipping away faster than he could control.“This is it, Aiden,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper. “It’s all falling apart. Everything we’ve fought for, everything we’ve done, is coming undone. The Abyss is crumbling.”I glanced around, trying to make sense of what he was saying. The sky—if you could call it that—above us was a sickly, shifting gray. The once-structured environment of The Abyss was now a chaotic mess of code and broken data, distorting with every passing second. It was as if the v
