Tides Of Eternity Episode 30: Shattered Realities
Kaiza's breathing was ragged, his chest rising and falling with the weight of what had just happened. The darkness that had consumed them, Mina's transformation, and the creature's sudden retreat had all left him standing in the aftermath, unsure of what was real and what was merely an illusion.She stepped slowly, with each step laden with uncertainty. Her eyes had a far-off look, her face was pale, and she was as if separated from the rest of the world, as if she had emerged from a daze, unable to focus on her surroundings. Shaking, her hands reached for him with a weak and fragile grip."Mina…" He took a deep breath, his voice low with concern. He tried to reach for her, but his hands shook as he touched her shoulder. "Mina, talk to me. Are you okay?"She blinked slowly, as if she was dawning on the fact that someone had looked at her, and slowly lifted her head. Kaiza's heart skipped a beat as he recognized her confused expression. Her lips parted, but no sound came out at first,
Tides Of Eternity Episode 31: The creature
The creature lunged at them at a speed impossible to track. One moment, it was standing just a few feet away; the next, its clawed hand was inches from Kaiza's throat.Instinct took over. Kaiza dived to the side, his body slamming into the cold stone ground, the claws of the creature scraping air where his neck had been moments before. The ground shook beneath him as dust and debris swirled in the beast's attack aftermath.He pushed himself up, heart racing, every muscle in his body coiled like a spring. Damn it, this thing is fast. But he wasn't going to back down. Not now. Not when Mina's life was on the line."Mina!" he screamed, his voice crackling with desperation, but she said nothing. She simply remained standing there, her body rigid as if petrified into place, eyes fixed on the creature, face unmoving, almost as if in a trance. The same trance that had claimed her before.Kaiza's eyes swapped between the beast and Mina. What in the fuck is happening? Why isn't she fighting ba
Tides Of Eternity Episode 31: The Rythm
The creature lunged at them at a speed impossible to track. One moment, it was standing just a few feet away; the next, its clawed hand was inches from Kaiza's throat.Instinct had taken over. Kaiza dived to the side as the creature's claws scraped the air where his neck had been a heartbeat before. The ground under him shook, dust and debris swirling in the aftermath of the beast's attack.He pushed himself up, heart racing, every muscle in his body coiled like a spring. Damn it, this thing is fast. But he wasn’t going to back down. Not now. Not when Mina’s life was on the line."Mina!" he yelled, his voice croaky with panic, but she made no reply. She stood, frozen stiff as a statue, staring at the beast, her face like something set in concrete, expressionless as if under a trance that has again washed over her, same as that night.Kaiza shifted between the animal and Mina, eyes filled with question and doubt. What's happening to her? She should be resisting by now."Get away from h
Tides Of Eternity Episode 32: Memory
The world seemed to spin around him.Kaiza's vision blurred, his mind a whirlpool of fractured thoughts. The cold stone of the cave floor pressed against his back, but he couldn't move. His limbs refused to obey, locked in place by a haze of exhaustion and pain. He tried to focus on his breathing, but his chest ached with every inhale, every shallow gasp.Get up. You have to move.But he couldn't. His head pounded like a drum, and the world seemed to pulse with a rhythm that wasn't his own. The last thing he remembered was the creature's roar so loud, so terrifying that it had shattered his thoughts like glass. Then everything had gone dark.And now, there was nothing.For a long moment, Kaiza didn't know if he was even alive.But then a voice broke through the fog.“Mina…” His voice was rough, a rasp that barely formed the words, but he couldn’t help it. He had to know if she was okay.A soft rustling filled the air. The sound of footsteps. And then, her voice.“I’m here.”Kaiza’s he
Tides Of Eternity Episode 33: The Darkness
Darkness.Kaiza's world suffocated him to death. The thick black fog hung like a wet sheet, clapping against his skin, not letting it breathe. There was no need to either open his eyes or close them since he did not know if his senses were still alive. But even numb, he felt his body ache at the sharpness of it all. His limbs weighed him down as if chained to earth itself.Get up. You must move. Mina needs you.Kaiza's mind screamed, but his body refused to comply. The growl of the creature, the terror in Mina's eyes, it all played back in his mind like a twisted, cruel loop. He'd failed her. Again."No…" His voice came out in a hoarse rasp. He could barely hear it over the pounding of his heart in his ears.He felt his chest open up from the inside, crushing him as though from the inside out. He needs to go through with this. He has to get to Mina. Not the monster could take her. She won't go; no, he won't let her.The darkness around him flickered, and then, a faint light pierced th
Tides Of Eternity Episode 34: The Risen Darkness
The ground cracked beneath Kaiza's feet, the sound echoing through the cave like the bones of the earth breaking. It felt like the world was shattering, the air thick with the smell of sulfur and burnt ozone. Kaiza's heart pounded in his chest, the adrenaline coursing through him in frantic pulses.This had the effect on Mina's power, which had done something to slow that creature, but this, rising from the depths of the cave, was a different league.The walls were shaking, and a dark energy beat around them, heavy and oppressive. Kaiza knew something was coming, but he had never prepared for this. His instincts screamed at him to run, to protect Mina, but he couldn't tear his gaze from the gaping fissure that now split the ground in two.A figure emerged from the darkness below.It wasn't like the thing they had been fighting. No, this was worse. Darker. Older.The creature climbing out of the hole from the chasm towered high, its form shrouded in shadow, an oppressive weight that se
Tides Of Eternity Episode 35: The Edge of Truth
Kaiza's heart was pounding, his grip tightening around Mina's trembling hand. Darkness seemed to be alive around them, an energy that throbbed within it—ancient and living. The chasm spread before them endlessly, devouring everything in its wake, and Kaiza knew he was running out of time. If he did not do it now, they would never come out of this hellhole. Mina's eyes, once full of hope, were now clouded with fear. Her body shook, her breath ragged, as if the very essence of the curse was pulling her under, dragging her into the shadows where she would be consumed. "We have to go, Mina," Kaiza's voice was low, edged with desperation. "We don't have much time. Mina gazed at him dully now, as though she were becoming a specter, losing bits of herself away with every dying second. What had bound the two together—that great amount of power to hold onto another person—ebbed out at every tick-tack. Also, along came the tightening choke of the evil curse surrounding Kaiza and himself. "Mi
Tides Of Eternity Episode 36: Shattered Vows
The night air was heavy with tension, a sharp chill cutting through the street as Kaiza sprinted down the alley, his heart pounding in his chest. His muscles burned with every step, but he couldn't afford to stop. Not now. Not when Mina was still out there, slipping further into the darkness that seemed to swallow her whole. His mind was a whirlwind of thoughts, each one more frantic than the last. He could hear the faintest sound of footsteps behind him, the subtle rustle of fabric against the cold wind. His senses were honed, trained over centuries of survival, and he knew the moment someone—or something—was following him. He didn't need to turn around to know they were closing in on him. But it wasn't the figure he feared. Mina was still alive. That much he knew. The weight of the curse, the dark force that had haunted him for so long, was alive in her too. The question, the one that had haunted him from the very beginning, lingered: Could they break free from it? Could they esc

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
Chapter 142: The Hunter’s Truth
The Hunter moved like death itself.Kaiza barely had time to react.One second, the masked figure was standing still, calm, unreadable, as if waiting for him to make a mistake.The next.It was already in front of him.Its blade lunged for his heart, a single, precise strike meant to end him instantly.Kaiza’s instincts screamed.His body moved before his mind could catch up.His sword rose to block.But the Hunter’s blade vanished.Kaiza’s breath hitched. What?The next second.Pain.A searing, unnatural agony tore through his ribs, black steel piercing through his side from behind.Kaiza gasped, stumbling forward, blood spilling onto the cracked earth.The Hunter had phased through him.Like a shadow.Like a ghost.Kaiza’s chest heaved, his vision blurring for a split second.It had been too fast.Too impossible.Soryn’s voice shouted from behind him."Kaiza!"He barely turned before the Hunter ripped its blade free, sending him staggering forward.Soryn was already moving, her golde
