Chapter 341: The Return
Caster arrived without light or sound. One moment, the outskirts of Rebillion City stood quiet beneath a low gray sky. The next, the air folded inward. Dust lifted off cracked pavement. Loose scrap rattled across the road. Then a body dropped into the middle of it.Caster hit the ground on one knee. Stone fractured beneath him in a tight ring. A pulse of mana rolled outward like a pressure wave. Windows along the abandoned warehouse block shuddered. A streetlamp bent, then snapped at its base. The sky above twisted.Clouds spun in place, dragged into a tight spiral. Blue-white threads of mana lashed downward, striking the ground around him. Each impact burned shallow lines into concrete and asphalt.Caster did not move. His coat smoked along the seams. Faint black lines crawled across his exposed skin, like veins filled with ash. When he exhaled, the breath came out cold and sharp, fogging the air.Another pulse rippled outward. People screamed. At the far end of the street, a deliv
Chapter 340
The sky tears without warning. There is no sound. No flash. No heat. Just pressure.It feels like the world pulls in a sharp breath and forgets to let it out. Caster freezes mid-step.The piece of chalk in his fingers snaps with a dry crack. The broken halves fall from his hand. White dust spills across the circular array carved into the observation floor. The lines he was drawing lose their shape. Mana threads ripple and bend, their neat paths twisting as if disturbed by unseen fingers.Every lamp in the chamber flickers once. Then they steady. No one speaks. Caster does not move.Above him, the reinforced crystal dome darkens. The clouds beyond it slow, then slide sideways. They do not drift with the wind. They are dragged, as if something large is pulling them from behind the sky itself.Sikoa looks up from the control dais. Her hand tightens on the metal rail. “You felt that,” she says.Her voice is steady, but she does not look away from the dome. Caster slowly straightens. “Yes
Chapter 339
The first light to return to Glassview is not from the sky. It comes from the ground.Thin lines of mana flicker beneath broken streets and collapsed towers. They pulse once, weak and uneven, then settle into a slow rhythm. Cracked stone vibrates. Loose debris shifts as invisible forces pull the city back from collapse.Caster stands at the center of the main convergence platform. He does not look up.Both hands are pressed flat against the rune-etched floor. His staff lies beside him, untouched. His coat hangs torn and stiff with ash. The sigils burned into his skin glow faintly, then dim, then glow again in time with the city’s pulse.A tremor runs through the platform. Caster spreads his fingers.The tremor stops.Around him, shattered towers hang suspended in midair. Some are tilted at impossible angles. Others are frozen halfway through collapse. Dust and rubble hover like paused rain.A sharp crack echoes from the east quarter. Caster turns his head. One of the suspended towers
Chapter 338
The first thing that breaks is the light. The sigil in Lyra’s chest fractures with a sharp crack, like glass under pressure. White lines crawl across it. The glow dims, flickers, then collapses inward. The floating towers around Glassview shudder as if something underneath them has gone hollow.Caster does not move. Lyra’s body jerks once. Her back arches. A sound forces its way out of her throat—not a scream, not a word. Just breath tearing free. Then she goes still.The spectral colossus behind her freezes mid-motion. Its massive arms lock in place. Mana drains from its form in visible streams, bleeding into the air like smoke pulled into a vacuum.Caster lowers his staff by a fraction. Ash drifts down from above. The sky, once torn open by spellfire and constructs, begins to seal itself. Clouds crawl back into place. Broken towers hang in silence, suspended by fading enchantments.Lyra’s eyes are open. They do not focus. Her lips part slightly. No sound follows.Caster steps forw
Chapter 337
The city lifted. It did not rise as one clean piece. It broke as it rose. Towers pulled upward in jagged parts, dragged by twisted gravity and torn mana lines. Stone groaned like it was alive. Glass screamed as it shattered. Streets bent and curled upward, cracking and splitting, like ribs tearing free from a broken chest.Glassview stopped being a city. It became a battlefield in the sky. Caster hovered above the heart of the city. Light wrapped around his body in calm, steady bands. They circled him like quiet stars. His breathing was slow and controlled. His heart beat hard, but it beat evenly. He was afraid, but he was focused.Below him, people ran. They fled across bridges that tilted and broke beneath their feet. Some slipped and fell into the open air. Some vanished into white mist when the ground beneath them simply gave up and disappeared.Caster saw them all. Across the broken skyline, Lyra rose higher and higher. She no longer looked fully human.Silver-black veins sprea
Chapter 336
The first scream came from the east quarter of Glassview. It cut through the night like torn cloth.Caster felt it before he heard it. The mana anchor inside his chest pulsed hard, then cold. He stopped walking. Rain slid down his face. The street around him froze. Stone cracked.A lamp post bent, then collapsed, rust spreading across it in seconds like mold. People ran.Their footsteps echoed wrong, stretched and warped, as if the ground could not decide where sound belonged.Sikoa reached his side. Her hand hovered near her blade. “It has started,” she said.Caster looked up. The sky was no longer gray. It was split. Silver clouds rolled across black space. Light bled from the gaps, thin and sharp, like cuts in skin. Gravity shifted. Loose paper lifted, then slammed back down.Far across the city, a tower darkened. Its mana beacon flickered, then died. Caster closed his eyes once. “Lyra,” he said.The ground shook again. Buildings aged in seconds. Walls peeled. Iron rails bent and
