تسجيل الدخولOlivia POVThe deep growl continued rumbling beneath my feet.The entire courtyard shook violently.Ancient roots burst through the marble ground like giant serpents, tearing apart pathways that had remained untouched for countless ages.I immediately leaped backward.The Moon Heart Crystal flashed repeatedly as though warning me.Then…BOOM!The earth exploded.A colossal creature slowly rose from beneath the ancient tree.Chunks of stone and soil rained across the courtyard.Its body resembled a dragon, yet it possessed no wings.Its enormous frame was wrapped in black scales veined with silver light, while thick roots had grown around parts of its body like living armor.Ancient vines coiled around its limbs, while moss covered sections of its back.It looked less like a beast…And more like a mountain that had awakened from an endless slumber.Its golden eyes slowly opened.Each pupil resembled a crescent moon surrounded by endless darkness.An oppressive pressure crashed over me.
Olivia POVHours passed or perhaps days.Inside the city, time no longer seemed to exist and even if it does, I could not keep track of it.The water gradually became calm and violent pain slowly faded replaced my a comfortable warm feeling that almost felt intoxicating.My heartbeat steadied.The silver and golden lights dancing beneath my skin slowly receded until they disappeared completely.The countless ancient runes that had entered my body settled deep within my bones, as though they had always belonged there.A gentle warmth lingered in my chest like the soothing warmth of the spring.It felt alive.Lucy suddenly gasped.“Olivia…” she called.I could hear the disbelief in her voice.“What is it?” I asked suddenly alarmed.“Our blood. It has changed” she replied excitedly.Before I could ask another question, countless tiny streams of silver light emerged from every part of my body.They intertwined around me before condensing into the image of a crescent moon above the Sacred
Olivia POV The moment I stepped through the ancient gate, the sounds of battle vanished as if I had stepped into a different dimension. The Guardian’s sword… The roars of the Abyssal Lords… Everything stopped. Even the trembling of the Valley of Broken Gravity disappeared, as though an invisible wall had separated two different worlds. Pure silence filled the entire place. I stood motionless, taking in my surroundings, my whole being still in awe of the grandeur of the city despite its present state. The city looked even grander from within. Silver pathways stretched into the distance, bordered by towering pillars carved with crescent moons and unfamiliar runic symbols. Every building seemed untouched by time. There was no dust. No signs of decay. Only an indescribable stillness and desolate sadness lingered in the air, as though the city had merely fallen asleep and was patiently waiting for its rightful owner to awaken it. The Moon Heart Crystal drifted forward once mo
Olivia POV The ancient being remained quiet. Several seconds passed before it finally answered. “Many people have called me by different names and titles. I no longer remember my true name.” Its voice carried no sadness. Only acceptance. Like someone who had lived through the vicissitudes of countless ages and no longer cared about what had been lost. “The passage of time erased it.” “You may call me… the Guardian.” “The Guardian,” I muttered quietly. The title suited him perfectly. “Are you guarding this gate?” I asked. “I guard far more than this gate,” he replied. He slowly turned. Beyond him, I finally saw what lay inside. An endless city. Not ruined. Sleeping. Gigantic silver towers stretched beyond sight. Moonlit rivers flowed through empty streets. Countless statues stood frozen where they had once lived, so lifelike that they looked like real people trapped in stone. Everything remained perfectly preserved. Yet there was no life. No voices. No movement.
Olivia POVThe eyes did not blink but just simply watched me.Ancient.Cold.Patient.I thought I saw something flicker within them, and for a brief moment, the entire Valley of Broken Gravity fell silent like a grave yard.No sound remained.The floating mountains stopped colliding.The violent currents of shifting gravity seemed to pause.Every unnatural phenomenon and changes all stopped.Even the silver crystal hovering beside me dimmed, as though whatever had awakened beyond the gate demanded absolute attention.A strange pressure settled gently upon my shoulders, like a light tap.It wasn’t murderous.It wasn’t hostile either.Yet it felt…Ancient.Like standing before history itself.The gigantic stone gate continued opening with a deep rumble that echoed across the valley.Dust and fragments of ancient rock drifted from its surface as the silver runes brightened one after another.The crescent moon carved into its center shone with a soft radiance identical to the mark hidden
Olivia POV From everything I had been told, the maps I studied, and the ancient texts Karl and the others researched, it finally dawned on me that I had already stepped into the valley. The Valley of Broken Gravity. “The valley has awakened.” “The laws of gravity no longer exist here,” I muttered through gritted teeth. With both hands gripping my staff tightly, I slowly pulled myself back onto solid ground. The moment both my feet touched the surface… The earth rotated violently once again. This time, the entire landscape flipped ninety degrees. I almost screamed. The ground I had been standing on suddenly became a wall. The wall became the ceiling. Massive boulders floated upward instead of falling, while pebbles drifted through the air like dry leaves caught in a violent current, circling endlessly around one another. Everything had turned upside down. Nothing followed the natural order anymore. Nothing obeyed reason. “This place is insane…” I cursed under my breath,
