327 Gilded Man vs Peerless Man
Tyler raised his hand, snapping his fingers sharply. The aerial pause shattered. With a monstrous groan, the Sword of Surtr shivered and resumed its fall, its flames roaring louder as it accelerated.Apocalyptic omens erupted worldwide again. The skies darkened further, earthquakes rumbled distant continents, tsunamis crashed coasts, and volcanoes stirred.Victor didn't hesitate. "Limiters release!" he shouted, his body surging with power. Dark energy exploded around him, coiling like living shadows. He grew rapidly, over ten feet tall in seconds.His form became shrouded in swirling blackness that absorbed light, and his muscles bulged with impossible density. From his back, dark, scaly wings erupted, crackling like lightning.Victor's eyes glowed crimson. With a boom like cannon fire, he launched skyward, soaring straight towards the descending blade.The group watched him fly towards his target, breathless. Kat gripped Yara's arm. "I have a sudden crush on this Peerless Man. Is he
326 Home Again
"Finally," Tyler said as he stepped through the ancient oak door of the Garden of Prophecies. The ivy-wrapped frame sealed shut behind him soundlessly and disappeared.The physical transformation in him was immediate. The timeless, youthful serenity of the garden vanished like a dream. He felt his body age back in an instant, muscles filling out to his adult form under the majestic Seraphim King robes.Natalie emerged next, her white dress shifting to more practical clothes suited to the real world, followed by Victor and Ashley, both reverting to their normal ages with pops of energy.Kat spotted them first, her face breaking into desperate relief. She rushed forward from where she had been waiting anxiously with Yara and Mamushi."Tyler Grant!" Kat called out, her voice cracking with emotion. "You're back! You're really back! I thought you'd fight them and everything would fall apart."Yara, in Lilith form, hurried over too, her eyes wide. "My Lord... I am glad you have reconciled w
325 Hotline to God
"You can summon God?" Tyler blurted out, his teenage voice cracking with disbelief. He pushed his chair back and slammed his hands down hard on the porcelain surface, making the teacups rattle and the tea slosh over the rims."Natalie, tell me you're joking. Did you say you can summon the actual, all-powerful, creator-of-everything God? That's not just crazy, that's completely ridiculous.""No one summons God, or even feels his presence. Not Seraph, not Destiny, not anyone in any lore I can see in the Akashic Records. How could you even say that with a straight face? It sounds like the most insane thing I've heard since Wings Island. Are you sure it's not some trick of the garden or Ashley's visions playing games with her?"Natalie didn't look away, even though she twisted a napkin in her hands slowly. "I get it, Tyler. I really understand what you mean. When it first hit me, when Ashley's visions started guiding me, and I started piecing together what I am, I thought the same thing.
324 The Triad Prophecies
"Victor Damone? As in Victor Cromwell?" young Tyler asked in shock."The very same, my friend in prophecy," the boy replied with a grin. "Don't be fooled by the illusions of the Garden of Prophecies. Anybody walking on its grass is perpetually frozen in a coming-of-age body.""I see," Tyler replied, processing the new information.Victor nodded and gestured to him to be seated. "I assume you remember what I shared with you about the three of us.""The Triad Prophecies," young Tyler said slowly, the words tumbling out as his memory clicked into place like a puzzle piece.He sat at the fancy tea table in the secluded hedge enclosure. His teenage hands were wrapped around a steaming teacup that Ashley had just poured for him.Victor Damone sat across from him, that confident grin still in place, while Ashley Palmer busied herself serving cookies.Natalie—young Nat, in her flowing white dress—sat beside him, smiling as if she had met childhood friends.Victor leaned back slightly, chuckli
323 The Garden of Prophecies
"Get away from me," Tyler growled, pushing Kat away. Apparently, Natalie's arrival and her promise to help him hadn't changed his apocalyptic decision at all. The Sword of Surtr hung frozen in the sky, its massive blade still spanning horizon to horizon, and its white-hot runes pulsing like angry hearts. Heat waves rippled downward in relentless pulses, making the ground groan. Tyler hadn't dismissed it yet, merely paused its descent. His devilish form also remained unchanged. His sudden, brutal shove made Kat fly backward, and she landed hard yards away in the ash, rolling to a stop with a pained gasp. Mamushi hissed protectively, slithering to her mother's side. Lilith's forked tail lashed in alarm, her demoness eyes wide with genuine fear. Even Kat, the ancient goddess, looked up at him from the ground with something new in her expression—terror. He had gone past the threshold of saving. Tyler straightened himself, the black fire rising higher around his form. "If anybody dares
322 The Fallen King
"NOOO!!!!" Tyler's scream echoed through the silence, across the endless craters and charred field that had once been Sapphire City's heart. He stood there in the central square—a god among ruins. Tyler's face, expressionless a moment ago in that first moment of shock, twisted slowly into something unrecognizable. His eyes became wide, and pupils dilated with horror that sank deeper with every moment until it reached the core of his soul. "Michelle... is gone," he murmured to himself. The woman whose love had freed him, and whose kingdom he had sworn to protect. He had betrayed his Queen by seeking a crown and throne that were now useless. Tracy, his sister, whom he rescued from abuse, only to let her burn in nuclear fire. Ruth and Hugh, his parents, who had endured so much for him and had finally begun to be happy again. Britta, the last of the Salvatore bloodline, was loyal to him to the end. Isabella. The Gilded Guard. The countless innocents who crowned him King of Petra and
