Glowing Figure 소설 & 이야기

Instead, they hovered in midair, glowing faintly. Anna stepped forward, her pulse racing. “It’s reforming itself.” “We need to stop it,” Ryan said, raising his wand. Before he could cast a spell, the shards pulsed, sending a shockwave that knocked them all back. The light coalesced into a humanoid figure—a woman with hair like liquid glass and eyes glowing with power. “You dare meddle with my game?” the figure said, her voice echoing in the chamber. “Who are you?” Anna demanded, struggling to her feet.

"Tiffany Wilson." Tiffany froze mid-step. Heart. Stopped. Neck. Stiff. Eyes wide. "...Who said that?" she whispered. And then— Out of nowhere — like literally materializing in front of her — a small glowing figure appeared. Elegant. Ethereal. Floating just slightly above the ground. It kinda looked like...an angel? But like...if angels wore Fenty Gloss Bomb and had locs slicked back into a perfect bun. Tiffany's jaw dropped. "What the HECK is THAT?" she yelled, stumbling back and grabbing the nearest thing — which happened to be a gold candle holder shaped like a swan.

“Unstable link between Host: Dream Hart and Subject: Gloss.” “Attempting to stabilize through synchronized neural pulse.” A surge of electricity shot through the cables. My body jerked, my breath catching. A wave of light exploded from the console, throwing us both backward. I hit the wall, hard, gasping. The air shimmered with static, lines of glowing data spiraling around Gloss’s body like threads of light knitting through his veins. He was glowing, not metaphorically, but literally. Every breath pulsed with blue illumination, as if the system’s heartbeat had synced with his own.

The glass windows were stained and most of them were shattered on the floor. I narrowed my gaze to my right to see cracks on the walls and dusty old things stacked on the side, but before me was where the only light was coming from. A table filled with old runes, symbols carved to the floor and candles burned in a wide circle around a figure. The flames were too steady to be natural. The figure rose, chants still lingering at the top of his tongue as he turned around. I saw him, scarred and in flesh. “Ah" he said pleasantly. “You're awake."

he declared as he burnt Miah's face with the flames. The cave began to crumble all around him while he dragged his tired body out of the cave. *** A figure, draped in a white robe and veiled in white cloth, sat in a meditative pose on a bed in a dark room. Suddenly, they felt a change in the energy around them, and their eyes fluttered open. They glowed with a bright silver light as the figure rose to their feet, their gaze fixed in the distance. They could sense the presence of another powerful being, one that was fading from this world.

The mist parted with a low, resonant hum—like glass vibrating under immense pressure. Aria froze mid-step. Kael’s hand snapped out, pulling her behind him just as the ground ahead split open, fractures spider-webbing in all directions. Light poured from the cracks, bright enough to sting their eyes. The air trembled. The reflections rippled. Then the Guardian rose. A towering figure of mirror and crystal, shaped like a humanoid but far too fluid, too shifting, its edges melting and reforming with every slight movement. Light pulsed from within its core—deep, ancient, and unblinking.

One of the figures dipped a thin, curved obsidian glass dagger into the basin, causing the surface to ripple. My heart pounded. "If you touch me with that—" "You won't be hurt," the figure said coolly. "Unless you are undeserving." The dagger had a dim glimmer. They applied pressure to my palm, allowing the ice to seep into my skin without causing any cuts. The basin's liquid light pulsed once, twice. suddenly exploded with a dazzling brightness. I gave a gasp. Shards of color broke through the darkness. Before my eyes, brief, disorganized images flashed. Under a red moon, wolves howl. Standing on a stone altar was a woman with eyes just like mine. A crown of light. A sea of flames.

It was the closest she had come to humor in four hours. The Figure stood beside the harmonic amplifier, its potential-formed body positioned at the center of the device's resonance field. Its luminous output had dropped to sixty-one percent of its emergence levels. The dimming was visible now, the starlight tears falling less frequently, the flowers that bloomed from its emotional discharge smaller and shorter-lived. "I am ready," the Figure said. Its voice was steady despite the dimming. "I have been alone for nine billion years. Thirty percent of myself is a small price for a family that spans two universes."

One figure stepped forward, and beneath the hood… something glowed. Eyes. Glowing red eyes locked on mine. And then– Everything went still.

“I’ve waited for this. I’ve anticipated it. And yet, here you are, trembling, so sure of yourselves. Delicious.” The circle beneath my feet suddenly flared to life, a glow that pulsed beneath my movements. It stretched outward, a luminous barrier of power that hummed with ancient energy, resonating with the dark force I had carried for years. The glow illuminated my features for a brief moment—my eyes black, lips curved in a mocking smile, hands alive with energy that none of them could match.
