All Chapters of Bonds By Blades : Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

The battlefield fell into stunned silence.The monstrous body that had once belonged to Lucien collapsed to its knees, empty and lifeless. The darkness had abandoned its vessel. Now it stood on its own. The true Abyss.It had no face. No eyes. Only an endless mouth stretching across its head, filled with rows of crimson fire that shifted like living teeth. Its body was formed from pure darkness, taller than mountains, broader than kingdoms. Every movement caused the sky to crack, as if the world itself could no longer contain its existence.The Creator rose from the ancient throne. For the first time since appearing, His expression was grave. "It has crossed the final boundary."Seraphine's face drained of color. "It should never have been able to exist without a host."The Creator answered quietly. "It should not."The Abyss laughed. The sound was not loud. It was everywhere. It came from the earth beneath their feet, from the broken gate behind them, from the hearts of every living

"Come home."The words echoed across the battlefield.Kael's breath caught in his throat. His mother's face looked exactly as he remembered it. Soft gray eyes. Dark hair that danced gently in the wind. The faint smile she had worn in his earliest memories before House Virel had taken everything from him.She reached toward him. "My son." Her voice was warm. "I've missed you."Kael's fingers tightened around the silver blade. His heart screamed at him to run to her. To hear her voice one last time. To ask the questions he had carried his entire life. Did she love him? Was she proud of him? Why had she left him alone?The Abyss smiled. It could taste his longing.Beside him, Rhydian had stopped moving. Standing before him was his father. Not the cold, ruthless man who had raised him. This man looked younger. His expression was gentle. His eyes held regret instead of cruelty."Rhydian." The word was barely a whisper. "I'm sorry."Rhydian's body trembled. He had waited his entire life to

The sky screamed.The enormous hand kept tearing reality apart. The crack widened until the heavens seemed ready to collapse. Mountains crumbled into nothing. Rivers disappeared into empty space. Even the ancient gate, which had survived countless wars, began to fracture.Every warrior on the battlefield stood frozen. The King of the Void was entering their world. Only one arm was visible, yet its presence alone overwhelmed every living soul.The Creator's radiant light dimmed. For the first time since His arrival, concern appeared on His face. "It has come sooner than I feared."Aion stepped beside Him. "You knew this would happen."The Creator nodded. "The Abyss was never the true enemy. It was a lock."Kael's eyes widened. "A lock?""The Abyss kept the Void asleep. When the Abyss died, the seal between worlds weakened."Rhydian let out a slow breath. "So we've defeated one nightmare only to wake another."Before anyone could answer, the gigantic hand tightened its grip on reality.

"I don't remember how to live."The young man's voice carried across the battlefield. It was quiet. Broken. Lonely.The thousands of crowned reflections froze where they stood, their empty eyes fixed on him. The endless darkness that had consumed the sky seemed to hesitate, as though it, too, was waiting for an answer.Kael slowly lowered the white blade. For the first time since the battle began, he looked at the King of the Void not as an enemy, but as someone who had forgotten who he once was.He took one step forward. "You can learn."The young man stared at him. "Can I?" His voice trembled with uncertainty. "I have only known silence. I have only known emptiness. I have only known the end of things."Kael stopped only a few feet away. "I only knew pain." The young man's eyes lifted. "I believed the world would never give me anything except suffering." He smiled faintly. "I was wrong."The young man looked past Kael to Rhydian. "You were the reason."Rhydian scratched the back of

The broken white blade fell from Kael's hands. It struck the stone with a sharp, hollow sound. Crack. The fracture running through its center widened.Above them, the enormous eye remained open. It watched the world with complete indifference, as though every life beneath it meant nothing.The First Silence had awakened.Its gaze alone caused rivers to freeze and stars to disappear from the heavens. No one moved. No one even dared to breathe.The Creator stood perfectly still. For the first time since creation, He did not know what would happen next.The ancient voice echoed across existence. "I existed before light. I existed before darkness. I existed before hope. I will exist after all things are forgotten."The world trembled. Entire mountains dissolved into silver dust. The battlefield began to vanish beneath everyone's feet.The young guardian of the Void fell to his knees, clutching his head. "It is erasing reality."Kael looked at the Creator. "You said every enemy could be de
