Chapter 3: Shadows of the Sovereign
Data de publicação:
2026-08-12 19:47:27The metallic tang of the Shadow-Spine Hound’s blood still hung in the damp air as Kael wiped his hands on his ruined tunic. He didn't waste time admiring the dead beast; in the Ash Wastes, blood was a beacon for worse things.
He opened his system inventory with a thought. A faint shimmering slit opened in the air beside him, revealing a crude bone-hilted blade resting inside the dark storage space.
Equip Shadow-Spine Dagger.
A dark purple light flashed, and a ten-inch blade made of polished monster bone appeared in his right hand. The edge was jagged, humming with a trace of dark venom.
[ WEAPON EQUIPPED ]
Shadow-Spine Dagger (Rank: Common)
Effect: +5 Attack Damage, 5% chance to inflict Corrosive Poison.
Not a legendary weapon, Kael thought, testing its balance with a quick slash through the air. But it beats fighting bare-handed.
He spent his 5 free stat points immediately, placing 3 into Strength and 2 into Agility. A wave of heat rushed through his shoulders and legs, his muscles tightening with newfound power.
A sudden, sharp rustle echoed from the thick canopy above.
Kael froze, his senses instantly flaring. The Eye of the Primordial triggered automatically, highlighting three red silhouettes creeping through the upper branches of the dead trees.
Not beasts this time.
Three figures dropped down into the clearing, landing with light, practiced steps. They wore dark leather armor emblazoned with a familiar emblem—a silver crescent moon dripping with three drops of blood.
Bloodmoon Pack scouts.
Kael’s eyes narrowed into slit-like golden pinpricks. High Elder Vane hadn't just thrown him over the cliff to let the fall kill him. He had sent executioners to make sure the "broken trash" never crawled back out.
The lead scout, a tall man named Torin with a scar running through his left eyebrow, stepped forward. He smirked as he spotted Kael standing alive amidst the monster debris.
"Well, look at that," Torin chuckled, resting his hand on the hilt of his sword. "The soul-less brat actually survived the fall. Vane said you were tough to kill, but I didn't believe him."
The two scouts behind Torin chuckled, spreading out to encircle Kael.
"Did Vane send you three to clean up his mess?" Kael asked, his voice chillingly calm. He kept the Shadow-Spine Dagger tucked behind his forearm, hidden from view.
"You're a disgrace to the bloodline, Kael," Torin spat, his eyes glowing faint yellow as his wolf spirit surged under his skin. "An Alpha born without a wolf is a curse on us all. We're doing the pack a favor."
[ TARGETS ANALYZED ]
Target 1: Torin (Rank: Pack Warrior - Level 6)
Target 2: Scout A (Level 4)
Target 3: Scout B (Level 4)
"A favor?" Kael murmured, taking a single slow step forward. "You stood by while Vane betrayed my father. You watched as they stripped my rights. And now you come here to play executioner?"
"Save the speech for the Moon Goddess!" Torin barked. "Kill him!"
The two side scouts lunged at once, their nails elongating into razor-sharp wolf claws. They moved with the coordinated speed of trained pack hunters, closing the gap in a heartbeat.
In the past, Kael wouldn't have even seen them coming.
Now, through the vision of the Divine Sovereign, their movements were as clear as day.
Kael ducked low under the first scout's claw swipe, grabbing the warrior’s wrist mid-air. With a surge of amplified strength, he twisted the scout's arm backward until the bone snapped through the skin.
CRACK!
The scout screamed, but before his voice could echo, Kael drove the Shadow-Spine Dagger straight through the warrior's throat.
[ TARGET ELIMINATED ]
Killed: Bloodmoon Scout A (Lvl 4)
EXP Gained: +120 EXP
God-Devouring Aura extracting wolf-essence...
A strand of silver aura tore out of the dying scout’s chest and plunged into Kael's core.
The second scout gasped in horror, freezing in mid-stride. "What... what did you do?! You don't have a wolf! How are you—"
Kael didn't give him time to finish. He ripped the black dagger from the first scout's throat, spun on his heel, and threw the blade with deadly precision.
The dagger buried itself up to the hilt in the second scout's chest. The corrosive venom flared instantly, burning through his veins as he collapsed to his knees, black blood spilling from his mouth before he fell lifeless into the mud.
[ TARGET ELIMINATED ]
Killed: Bloodmoon Scout B (Lvl 4)
EXP Gained: +120 EXP
Level Up! You have reached Level 3 (40/400 EXP).
In less than ten seconds, two trained pack warriors lay dead at Kael's feet.
Torin backed away, his face drained of color. His hand trembled on his sword hilt as he stared at Kael, whose eyes were now glowing with a terrifying, ancient golden light.
"You're... you're a monster," Torin stammered, stepping over a fallen branch. "What kind of dark magic is this?!"
Kael slowly walked toward him, stepping over the corpses. The silver aura absorbed from the dead warriors surged through his veins, refining his core, making him faster, stronger, and more lethal by the second.
"I'm not a monster, Torin," Kael said, pulling his dagger out of the second scout's chest with a dark squelch.
He looked up, locking eyes with the terrified warrior.
"I am the Alpha you discarded."

Discarded Alpha: The God Lord's Awakening Chapter 56 The Holy Node Shattered
The central vault beneath the Radiant Cathedral Spire was quiet, isolated from the cheering crowds celebrating in the streets four hundred feet above.At the center of the subterranean chamber sat the Sun-Altar of Valen—a twenty-foot monolithic structure forged from ancient white stone, brass conduits, and spell-reinforced gold plating. At its center suspended a floating, basketball-sized sphere of blinding, raw solar-mana. It was the primary elemental anchor for the entire Eastern Marches, a node created during the First Divine Era to channel compressed light-energy directly into Empress Vespera’s regional network.Kael stood before the pulsing altar, his dark mantle brushing against the marble steps. Flanking him were Lyra and Guildmaster Vane, who watched the swirling white-hot sphere with a mixture of awe and nervous tension.[ TARGET IDENTIFIED: SUN-ALTAR OF VALEN ] * Type: Regional Light Ley-Node (Class 2) * Energy Density: 180,000 / 180,000 Concentrated
Discarded Alpha: The God Lord's Awakening Chapter 55 Siege Of Grand Valen Part 2
The screams of battle from the lower district echoed up the towering white marble face of the Radiant Cathedral Spire. Four hundred feet above the burning cobblestones, the high observation parapet was shrouded in a swirling vortex of superheated, blood-red solar energy.At the center of the parapet stood High Inquisitor Gabriel—now transformed into the Arch-Inquisitor.Driven to absolute madness by the collapse of the city’s lower defenses, Gabriel had plunged the ruby master key directly into his own chest, forcibly draining the central Sun-Altar’s unrefined power. His white robes were shredded, replaced by a terrifying exoskeleton of molten gold and calcified light. His eyes burned like twin miniature suns, and in his right hand, he held a seven-foot Greatsword of Solar Retribution that radiated waves of blistering heat capable of melting solid granite.[ TARGET INTEL: ARCH-INQUISITOR GABRIEL ] * Form: Sun-Altar Overdrive (Level 38 Corrupted Divine Entity) *
Discarded Alpha: The God Lord's Awakening Chapter 54 Siege Of Grand Valen
The first golden rays of dawn pierced the heavy morning fog surrounding Grand Valen, illuminating the massive white granite ramparts of the Holy Gateway City.High atop the three-hundred-foot outer wall, Inquisitorial watchmen scanned the rolling western plains. Suddenly, the ground beneath their boots began to vibrate in a steady, rhythmic thunder.Emerging from the treeline of the western marshes was the heavy iron fist of the Sovereign Vanguard. Garrick rode at the absolute front of a three-thousand-strong heavy cavalry column, his broad shoulders clad in refined gold-alloy plate, his massive spiked warhammer resting across his saddle bow. Flanking his cavalry were two hundred Radiant Vanguard paladins—cleansed former imperial soldiers whose silver shields now bore the dark crescent-and-star crest of Kael Bloodmoon."SIEGE FORMATION!" Garrick’s deep voice bellowed across the valley, amplified by his World Shield aura. "SUN-BANE BALLISTAE, DEPLOY!"[ COMBAT INITIAT
Discarded Alpha: The God Lord's Awakening Chapter 53 The Flame Of Defiance
The abandoned marble amphitheater of the Lower Sun District sat shrouded in the midnight fog, its towering arches cracked and overgrown with dark, soot-stained ivy. Once used for imperial holy lectures, the forgotten ruins now served as the gathering ground for Grand Valen’s outcasts—over a thousand beastkin refugees, rogue cultivators, destitute merchants, and liberated prisoners.Torches flickered along the broken stone tiers, casting long, nervous shadows across the anxious crowd. A tense, quiet fear hung in the damp air; every person present knew that being caught in an unsanctioned assembly meant immediate public execution by High Inquisitor Gabriel’s Purifiers.Standing atop the central raised dais, Elder Varis raised his withered feline hands to quiet the murmuring crowd. Beside him stood Ronald, the former paladin captain, his newly re-armed rogue paladins keeping watch along the broken perimeter walls."People of the East!" Elder Varis’s voice echoed softly thro
Discarded Alpha: The God Lord's Awakening Chapter 51 The Inquisitorial Hunt
The air inside the lower catacombs beneath Grand Valen was cold, stale, and thick with the heavy scent of damp earth and old incense.For three days, the black-market distribution of Purified Sovereign Cores had spread through the lower tiers of the Holy Gateway City like wildfire. The Church's solar gems sat unsold in state-controlled vaults, their inflated prices rendered absurd by the sudden influx of high-density, tax-free mana crystals.High Inquisitor Gabriel had not taken the economic disruption lightly.A mile beneath the Silver Coin Tavern, inside a sprawling subterranean junction carved from rough-hewn granite, three hundred Inquisitorial Purifiers marched in tight formation. They wore heavy, black-and-silver plate mail, their visors down, and their weapons—long silver spears tipped with volatile solar-flame runes—illuminated the dark tunnels with a harsh, flickering orange light.Leading the column was High Inquisitor Gabriel himself. He was a tall, gaunt
Discarded Alpha: The God Lord's Awakening Chapter 52 The Silver Prison Heist
The Silver Prison of Aethel was an imposing three-hundred-foot bastion of white granite, built directly into the steep cliffs overlooking the roaring river on Grand Valen’s eastern edge.Designed specifically to contain high-tier political dissidents, rogue paladins, and beastkin scholars, the fortress was enclosed by spell-reinforced iron bars and anchored directly into the city's holy mana grid. Inquisitorial guards watched every passageway, while anti-teleportation runes burned along the cold stone floors, ensuring that no spatial magic could breach its lower vaults.Down in the deepest subterranean level—the Dungeon of the Unpurified—the damp air smelled of iron, old straw, and stagnant moisture.Sitting in a cramped, damp iron cell at the end of the lower hallway was Elder Varis, an elderly feline beastkin scholar whose wrists were bound in heavy, anti-mana manacles. Across from his cell, a disgraced former paladin captain named Ronald sat against the cold stone, hi
