Tides Of Eternity Chapter 111: The Unseen Devourer
A new presence placed a burden between Heaven and man.It was no mere arrival itas an invasion, a subversion of reality itself.The sky trembled; the Abyss quaked; everything in the Hollow City shook in the embrace of some inconceivable power, as if the very being of things rebelled at what had entered in.Kaiza swayed, ragged for breath, body yelling in wounds already delivered.That thing in Mina had nearly torn him asunder.Where her hand had passed through him, his soul still burned angony beyond that of flesh, beyond the physical.But this… this was worse.The Unseen Devourer didn’t descend from the sky like a deity.It did not emerge from the underworld like a demon.It was a vacuum untilt wasn’t.A crack in the world, a wound deeper even than the broken sky, gaped open like torn flesh. It did not step through. It never existed.It ate its way into being.Kaiza didn’t so much see it as feel it theunger.One that not only wanted to eatbut only wanted to gorge. A kind of energy th
Tides Of Eternity Chapter 112: The Name That Should Not Be Spoken
The world cracked open.A heavy silence fell over the Hollow City, thicker than death, more complete than the void.For a heartbeat, even the Devourer appeared to pause.The name still lingered; it trembled with an unimaginable heaviness.Azelith.Kaiza barely registered the move before Mina, or whatever was inside her, stumbled one step back, and her blackened eyes widened.Something flared in her face: recognition, rage, fear.The figure in the hood stood still, their sword as dark as a starless night.The blade thrummed, the very air curving away from it as if trying to avoid its touch.Kaiza’s lungs felt like ash, his ribs howling as he pulled himself up from the rubble.The mind was still reeling, trying to make sense of what he had just coursed through.The Hollow King was gone.Eaten.Not dead. Not even erased. Just… unmade.The Unseen Devourer had not slain him.It had merely behaved how it always did, devour.A deity rendered null in mere seconds.And now it loomed, its impos
Tides Of Eternity Chapter 113: The Hunger Beneath
Kaiza gasped in a rasping breath.His body protested, his bones heavy with fatigue, but he did not dare to shift.Mina or whatever wore her skin stood in front of him, with her head cocked as if she were an animal luxuriating in its prey, drinking him in with her coal-black eyes.The violet fissures snaking across her skin throbbed, shifting shape as if whatever was underneath the surface wasn’t quite done yet.The hooded figure was gone.No remains, no body, no leftover vibes. No, no absence, as though they were torn from reality itself.Kaiza clenched his jaw.That meant he was alone.With her.Mina stepped forward intentionally, her bare soles squealing against the splintered surface.It was a slow, considered movement, too unlike her usual.He saw her fingers flex, curling then extending outward like claws for a cat flexing its paw.Her lips curled in a cruel smile.“You’re frightened,” she said quietly.Kaiza tightened his grip on his sword.“Mina,” he said, voice low, steady.“F
Tides Of Eternity Chapter 114: The Hunger That Devours
Darkness.It enveloped Kaiza like a second skin, seeping into his pores and creeping into the spaces between his bones.” He couldn't breathe. Couldn’t think. The Abyss was within him now, whispering, tugging.And he was falling.No end. No, up. No down.Just the hunger.Then.CRACK.Kaiza crashed into something solid, bones jangling, his vision flashing white with pain. He inhaled sharply, sucking in dense, viscous air that scorched his lungs like tar.His fingers sank into moist, handfuls of debris.It felt wrong.Hot, throbbing, as if he were kneeling over something alive.His body ached. But worse than that, the feeling still bunched up in him like the Abyss had gotten under his skin, a hurt in his very being that would never, ever heal."Still fighting it?"The voice was his. But not.Kaiza lifted his head.It was his own face looking back at him the Abyssal Kaiza.Taller. Stronger. Dripping with power.That thing loomed, bound in flowing, liquid armor, silver fire licking around
Tides Of Eternity Chapter 115: The Chains of Judgment
PainHungerPowerThe Abyss poured through Kaiza, a fiery iron through his veins, twisting his body in ways that should have been impossible.His greatsword twisted in his grasp, no longer steel but something darker, something alive veined with writhing black sigils, crawling in tune with his own heart.He felt everything.The battleground under his feet the corpses, the earth soaked in old blood he could feel it breathe.You felt the weight of the Abyss bearing down on the world itself, distorting it, corrupting it, claiming it as his.And standing across from him was the Executioner.But this time, for the first time, it hesitated.Kaiza caught it a mere flicker, a twitch, a twitch of uncertainty in the way the armored behemoth settled its weight.He had been prey before.Now?He was something else.The Executioner reoriented its composition."You have embraced it, then. Fool."Kaiza's lips curled."Talk less. Fight more."The monster attacked, the blade shrieking in the wind. Kaiza
Tides Of Eternity Chapter 116: The Maw of the Forgotten
Pain.Hunger.Power.Damnation.The Abyss embraced him home.It poured into his body like melted iron, mixing with his very marrow, burning his nerves with an agony that would have ripped his mind asunder. But Kaiza was not shattered.He became.His heart battered against his chest like a drum of war, his muscles strained, stretched and reformed beneath the burden of force from the abyss. His veins smoldered black, his sight dimmed—human for a second, something other in the next.The Devourer charged.Kaiza didn't dodge.He confronted the monster head-on, striking his greatsword into its abominable form with every ounce of fury that his new strength could muster. The instant their bodies met, the air exploded, unleashing a wave of raw, abyssal power that shattered the ground.The Devourer screamed as Kaiza's sword cut through its flesh, black ichor flying across the devastated city. Its abominable bones cracked, its cruel, lidless mouth opening wider in a mixture of rage and hunger.B
Tides Of Eternity Chapter 117: The Fallen Throne
Destruction.It arrived like a tidal wave.The Forgotten Lords' chamber, once deathly quiet, exploded into chaos. The warrior woman's arrival created a shockwave that shattered the thrones, and shards of bone and stone flew through the air. The earth shook, splitting open with raw abyssal power. Shadows convulsed. The air itself rippled with something unnatural, something older than even the Lords.Kaiza scarcely had time to acknowledge the blow before the warrior strode on.She was swift. Inhumanly swift.A haze of silver and chasmfire, she dashed across the chamber like a wraith, her sword slicing into one of the Lords before it had time to stir from its throne. The block-like form disintegrated, its veiled head reeling back, its body bursting into a whirlpool of dark vapor.The rest reacted as quickly.A hum of whispers dominated the room.Not words. Not ideas. Something more, something that shuddered in the bone marrow of being itself. The Lords stood as a whole, their bony frames
Tides Of Eternity Chapter 118: When the Sky Broke
The sky did not merely open.It tore.A yawning wound rent the heavens apart, pouring forth a darkness more choking than the abyss itself. The ruins shuddered as unnatural gusts screamed through the broken temple, bearing whispers that gnawed at the mind.Kaiza had scarce time to respond before the world gave way beneath him.The earth broke. Gashes of boundless black ripped through the floor, hunger curling from their rims. Soryn stumbled backward, her boots finding solid ground by scant inches as the temple shattered.The fire they'd sat beside mere moments before dissipated into the devouring emptiness.Then, they descended.Nine of them came down from the skies like shattered deities, their faces wrapped in shadow and bone. None could see the features behind, yet Kaiza sensed their sight was ancient, unforgiving, and all-consuming.Elongated forms with an unholy slowness moved in ways that warped time to embrace them.The Forgotten Lords have come.And they came for him.Kaiza's fi

Chapter 149: The End of the Rewrite
The stars had come back.But peace, Kaiza understood, was not always quiet. It was a tension—the quiet after a storm, the stillness after a scream, full of everything left unspoken.He stood at the boundary of memory.Though his body had been erased from the world, his mind was still anchored, resonating like an old melody in the Archive Between Worlds, the place where stories were never spoken, where truths too hazardous to be remembered were kept.And in its changing halls of golden filaments and ash-hued stone, Kaiza roamed. Not lost. Not captive. But seeking.For the past had not yet released him.Mount Umbra. Years before the end.The Shadowborne children were taught to never flinch.Kaiza recalled the sting of snow searing across his naked toes at initiation. A knife in his fist. A mask upon his eyes. His father's voice, ice as black stone:"Loyalty is not love. It is law."They grew up in silence, taught to dominate a dozen kills before their thirteenth name-day. Feelings were v
Chapter 148:The War of Existence
The sky was torn apart.Not like an explosion.Not like thunder.But like the very fabric of sound itself, it ripped asunder.Kaiza didn't even have the moment to blink before the entity shifted.Not with power.Not with speed.But with absolute, mindless inevitability.It didn't attack in the sense that an enemy would.It redefined the battlefield.In one instantKaiza was standing on solid earth.He was tumbling into a chasm of shattered timelines, each one splintering away like delicate glass.His golden flames flickered, fighting against the force pulling him down.He froze.Not because he caught himself.Not because he landed.Because the entity demanded it.Kaiza growled."You think you can control me?"The entity's voice surrounded him."I already do."And thenThe world crumbled.Kaiza balled his fists as the rules of reality warped around him.The entity's golden-black fire engulfed everything.Shredding the battlefield, reforming it in real-time.The sky turned into an ocean
Chapter 147: The Collapse of Reality
The sky tore apart.Not like lightning.Not like a storm.Like glass breaking.The Hollow City shattered, shattering into a thousand reflective shards, each one revealing a different possibility.Some revealed Kaiza triumphant, golden flames in his grasp, the entity dissolving to dust.Others revealed Kaiza was gone, nothing but a memory of what had been.But the worst onesThe ones that made his chest constrictRevealed the world lost.Not destroyed.Never having been at all.The thing moved first.One moment, it stood before him.Next, it was all around him.A dozen forms of itself blurred in and out of existence, attacking from various directions simultaneously.Each sword is pointing for Kaiza's heart.But Kaiza didn't even blink.He didn't need to react.Because nowHe knew the game."You don't get to decide anymore."Kaiza reached out with his will, his mind, his very soul.And reality listened.In an instantEvery version of the entity vanished.Not because Kaiza dodged.Not bec
Chapter 146: The War of Unmaking
The world ended.Not in flames.Not in ruin.In nothingness.The streets of the Hollow City disappeared.The sky overhead ceased to exist.The air itself wavering, as if a memory attempting to remember its own presence.Kaiza alone in the center of it all a solitary figure against an adversary that was not meant to exist.His golden eyes ablaze.But for the first time everHe wasn't certain if he existed anymore.The figure in front of him his distorted reflection grinned."You're beginning to comprehend, aren't you?"Kaiza clutched his sword tighter."I comprehend that you speak too damn much."The figure chuckled."Like a man who doesn't know he's already lost."And thenIt moved.Kaiza had barely enough time to respond.The instant the entity charged, the very fabric of reality unraveled.Not with force.Not with power.With certainty.Wherever the entity stepped, the world no longer was.The Hollow City disappeared in patches, chunks of buildings, strips of sky—all vanishing in a
Chapter 145: A King Without a Throne
For the first time in five centuries, the Hollow City was silent.No screaming.No war.No whispering darkness hiding in the cracks of reality.Kaiza stood in the middle of it all free.The Abyss was gone.Not locked away.Not hiding in the shadows.Gone.He had done the impossible.He had rejected it.Not by fighting it.Not by dominating it.But by letting go.And yet something did not feel right.Kaiza let out a sharp breath, rolling his shoulders.His body felt lighter.As if he had lost something he had carried around for so long that he didn't even know what it felt like to not have it.The Abyss had been integrated into his very being.And now, without it…Who was he?Kaiza tightened his fists."Is this what freedom is meant to feel like?"Because it didn't feel good.It felt empty.Like he had been opened up and something had been torn out.Something that, terrible as it was, had at least been a part of him.Kaiza's golden eyes blazed, but there was no abyssal fire burning in
Chapter 144: When Titans Collide
A howl of unleashed darkness erupted from under the Hollow City.The earth cleaved open, a torn edge slashing through stone, spewing out coils of abyssal flame into the air.And out of that tear something stirs.Something immense.Something ancient.Kaiza stood upon the ruined battlefield, his gold eyes fixed on the churning whirlpool of darkness that had burst forth from his own blow.He'd done it.He'd awakened the Abyss.And now he had to make it through."Every last one of you, move!" Kaiza bellowed.But it was already too late.A brutal shockwave erupted outward, shattering the Hollow City and leveling buildings to rubble.The air itself cracked, reality fighting to maintain its shape as the Abyss awakened from its deep sleep.The sky contorted, folding in upon itself, and Kaiza could sense it.The Abyss was hungry.And it had waited too long.The First Hunger awakened.The impossibly huge hand, black and smeared with shifting constellations of void, faltered for the first time.
Chapter 145: The Choice That Ends a Kingdom
Kaiza's breathing came sharp and jagged.His fingers were constricted around the wrist of his other self, the King of the Hollow City.The battle's weight still resonated in his bones, his muscles crying out from the fight, which had transcended time itself.And yet he did not attack.The king sneered, golden eyes flashing with dark pleasure."What's wrong?""This is what you wanted, isn't it?"Kaiza's hold grew tighter.He could finish it now.A single strike. A single cut.Erase this alternate version of himself.Reclaim the Hollow City as his own.But the longer he stared into his own twisted reflection, the clearer it became.This wasn’t just about a throne.This was about who he would become."Damn it."His golden eyes flashed."I’m not you."And that was the moment he made his choice.A King Must FallKaiza let go.The king swayed a little, his sneer failing for the first time."What?"Kaiza took a step back, sheathing his sword."I don't need to kill you to win."The throne room
Chapter 144: The War of Kings
Kaiza stumbled forward, his breathing labored, his heart pounding in his ears.The Hollow City lay before him, but it was not the same Hollow City he remembered.It was unmarred by war.The towers rose high, spires reaching into a moonlit sky that should not be.The streets were spotless, thronged with moving people walking, speaking, and living.For an instant, Kaiza couldn't catch his breath.This was impossible.It had never been true.It had never been anything more than a dream."And yet here I am."A weight, heavy as lead, dropped into his chest.He had rewritten destiny.The Abyss had never swallowed this city.The Hunters had never been forgotten.And he had never turned into a monster.Kaiza let out a harsh breath, raking a hand through his dark, sweat-matted hair."So what the hell do we do now?"The Harbinger's Warning"Kaiza."The voice was low, even.He turned to glance at the Harbinger, who stood a few steps behind him, silver eyes acute, expressionless.He hadn't budged
Chapter 143: A War Against the Unwritten
The darkness engulfed Kaiza entirely.In one instant, he stood before his previous self, the Hollow City intact, reality itself refusing to believe that history had been altered.The next.He was plummeting.Not bodily.Not through air, or chronology, or even the Abyss.But through something deeper.Something older.Something that should not exist.Something that had waited.And at its center something watched.Kaiza's body struck solid earth, but it felt nothing like the real world.The sky, or what passed for a sky, was a chasm of writhing shapes and wisps.The air tasted too thick, weighing upon him like a thousand invisible fingers.He pushed himself up, his golden eyes furrowing as he turned.And then.He saw it.The figure.It stood where his former self had once stood, regarding him with a look that belonged to no living thing.Kaiza had battled gods.He had fought the Abyss.He had witnessed things without a name.But this.This thing was wrong.Not as the Abyss was.Not as the
