BOOOOOOM!

The first explosion tore through the east wing of the Kingsley Estate.

The marble floor cracked beneath their feet.

Crystal chandeliers shattered, raining thousands of glittering fragments onto the panicked crowd.

People screamed as smoke and dust filled the grand hall.

Damien tightened his grip on Sophia’s wrist.

“Run!”

Another deafening blast erupted behind them.

BOOM!

The ceiling collapsed where they had been standing only seconds earlier.

Massive blocks of marble crashed onto the

  • REJECTED BY BILLIONAIRE, CHOSEN BY THE DEVIL KING    CHAPTER SEVENTY- FOUR: THE FIRST FATHER

    “The Creator was only my first child.”The words shook reality.Sophia stared at the enormous hand emerging from the裂开的 sky.It was larger than a planet.Larger than a universe.Its fingers wrapped around the edges of reality as though existence itself were nothing more than a curtain.The Creator was trembling.Sophia had never seen him afraid.Not when Azrael betrayed him.Not when The End awakened.Not even when the Original emerged.But now…he was terrified.Sophia tightened her grip around Lucien’s hand.“Who is that?”The Creator couldn’t answer.“Tell me!”His lips trembled.“My Father.”The baby in Sophia’s arms giggled.“Grandfather.”Everyone froze.The Creator looked at the child.“Don’t call him that.”The baby’s smile disappeared.“Why?”“Because he doesn’t deserve the name.”A deep laugh rolled across the universe.The hand stopped moving.Then a voice answered:“Still rebellious after all these years.”The Creator looked upward.“You should have stayed away.”“I was ne

    “Because the Original isn’t waking up. It has already woken up.”Sophia stood completely still.The battlefield had gone silent.Too silent.Even the wind seemed afraid to move.Her silver eyes slowly returned to normal, but the fear remained.“Adrian…”She stared at the place where the crack had disappeared.“Bring him back.”No one answered.Sophia turned toward the Creator.“Bring him back!”The Creator shook his head.“I can’t.”Sophia’s expression hardened.“You created this universe.”“Yes.”“Then open the door.”“I can’t.”“Why?”The Creator looked at her.“Because the door isn’t connected to this universe anymore.”Sophia’s heart sank.“Then where is Adrian?”The Creator hesitated.“In the place before existence.”Sophia whispered:“The Void.”The Creator nodded.“Yes.”Lucien stepped beside her.“Then we’ll go there.”The Creator looked at him.“You don’t understand.”“Then explain.”“The Void isn’t a place.”“It is the absence of every place.”Lucien frowned.“So?”The Creat

    “Hello, Sophia.”Sophia couldn’t move.Her heart stopped.Her lips trembled.“Adrian…”The name escaped her mouth like a forgotten prayer.The man standing before her smiled.The same smile.The same eyes.The same face.The same voice that had haunted her dreams for years.But that was impossible.Adrian was dead.She had watched him die.She had held him in her arms.She had cried until she couldn’t breathe.She had buried him.She had mourned him.And yet…he was standing there.Alive.Older.Stronger.Darker.Lucien immediately moved in front of her.“Don’t go near her.”Adrian looked at him.Then laughed.“Still playing the hero?”Lucien’s expression hardened.“Who are you?”Adrian smiled.“You know exactly who I am.”“I know the man Sophia loved.”Adrian’s eyes narrowed.“Loved?”He looked at Sophia.“Is that what you told him?”Sophia’s heart sank.“What are you talking about?”Adrian stepped closer.“You didn’t love me.”Sophia shook her head.“Don’t.”“You used me.”“Stop.”“

    “Let’s see which version deserves to exist.”Sophia stared at herself.It was like looking into a mirror that had learned how to hate.The woman standing before her had the same face.The same voice.The same golden eyes.But there was something missing.Warmth.The other Sophia smiled.“Why are you staring?”Sophia swallowed.“Because I don’t understand.”“You don’t have to.”The other Sophia raised her hand.The Ninth Flame inside Sophia’s chest suddenly reacted.Pain exploded through her body.“Ah!”Lucien caught her.“Sophia!”The other woman laughed.“Still hiding behind him?”Sophia looked up.“Leave him out of this.”“Why?”The other Sophia tilted her head.“He’s the reason you became weak.”Lucien stepped forward.“Careful.”The other Sophia smiled.“You think you can protect her?”Lucien’s eyes darkened.“I know I can.”She laughed.“You still don’t understand.”She pointed at him.“You didn’t save Sophia.”“You created the version of her that I’m going to destroy.”The Sophi

    “I’m the one who created you.”Sophia couldn’t move.The baby in her arms looked harmless.Tiny fingers.Soft skin.A peaceful face.Yet every being in existence had fallen to their knees.Even the Witness.Especially the Witness.Sophia slowly looked at the enormous eye in the sky.“You created me?”The baby nodded.“Long before you remembered yourself.”Sophia’s voice trembled.“Then why did you let me believe I was human?”The baby smiled.“Because you needed to become human.”“Why?”“Because a god can create life.”He touched her cheek.“But only a human can understand what life means.”Sophia stared at him.“You’re saying everything I’ve experienced…”“Was necessary.”“My suffering?”“Necessary.”“My losses?”“Necessary.”“Meeting Lucien?”“Necessary.”“Having my children?”The baby smiled.“That was your choice.”Sophia’s heart softened.“And Cain?”The baby looked at Cain.“His choice.”Cain stepped forward.“You created us?”The baby nodded.“Not exactly.”Cain frowned.“Then

    “Every enemy you’ve fought was created to prepare you for me.”Sophia couldn’t breathe.The enormous eye hanging above the broken sky was impossible to comprehend.It wasn’t simply watching them.It was watching everything.The battlefield.The kingdoms.The gods.The demons.The dead.Even the stars seemed reflected inside its pupil.Sophia instinctively stepped backward.Lucien immediately stood in front of her.“Stay behind me.”The eye moved.Not across the sky.Across reality.The entire universe seemed to turn beneath its gaze.Then a voice spoke.“Lucien.”Lucien froze.The voice was neither male nor female.It sounded like millions of voices speaking as one.“Who are you?”The eye blinked.“You ask the wrong question.”Lucien tightened his fists.“Then what question should I ask?”The voice answered:“Why do you exist?”Silence.Sophia stared at Lucien.The question struck him harder than any weapon.He looked down at his hands.“I don’t know.”The eye turned toward Sophia.“Y
