Re Zero Light Novel Volume 8 Novels & Stories

Scarlet stood there in disbelief, watching as the old man held the vampire shield high above his head, the ground beneath her quaking. She watched as he transformed, became younger, stronger. Rays of light continued to shoot out from the shield, completely filling the room, and the other vampires continued to bow low to the ground, shielding their eyes from the intense light. She too, had to turn away, so much light filled the room. Beside her, Ruth whined.

Calvin's grip on my hand vanished instantly. I did not even want to spare them a second glance, so I turned and walked away. I could feel the sting of Rebecca's glare on my back. Soon enough, their laughter was a mere echo behind me. … The next morning, I grabbed my bags, ready to hit the road. However, the moment I stepped outside, the world went pitch black, and I was out cold. When I came to, I was tied to a chair.

Sicca was doing everything he could to calm my nerves, but they were stubborn, refusing to bend. “Ready for a little magic?” His ice-blue eyes sparkled at me, playful and teasing. I nodded at him, then turned my gaze forward. He produced a small object from his pocket, almost like a miniature hockey puck. It was a vivid green. With a flick of his wrist, he sent it skimming across the gravel. As it landed, a green light shimmered upward from it. Sicca placed a steadying hand on my waist, guiding me toward the glowing patch. It shaped itself into an oval, like a massive mirror one could walk through.

"INITIATE MASS-DELETION TO PRESERVE THE GRID." The Centinel’s limbs began to glow with a lethal, blinding cyan light. It was preparing to "Zero" the entire floor, killing every shifter in the tubes to prevent them from waking up. "NOT ON MY WATCH!" I didn't use the fire. I reached for the Wooden Key embedded in my marrow and funneled the entirety of the Eighty-Eight Chapters of Scars into it. I showed the Loom the weight of Silas’s loyalty, the cold of the Eastern winter, and the absolute, messy, carnal reality of my first night with Eryx in the cave.

he said, voice low and strained. He had barely finished that sentence before he suddenly turned toward Serena. All the warmth and tenderness in his gaze had vanished, replaced by an icy fury. Without hesitation, he raised his foot and kicked Serena into the house roughly. Serena stumbled and fell hard to the floor. The smugness on her face morphed into shock instantly, followed by rage and disbelief. She couldn't fathom why Lucas would treat her this way. She had come to Mordeva feeling confident and smug, clearly ready to flaunt some imagined victory. She had been so sure that Lucas was on her side.

Bag after bag of plasma was pumped into my veins. One raw, guttural scream tore out of me, and then the sound of a baby crying filled the room. On my phone, the screen was still frozen on one last image. Jasper and Fiona were locked in a kiss beneath the Aurelian Tower. I held my crying son and let the tears fall without stopping.

The developer-Zora looked out the window as the streetlights of London began to turn a deep, familiar, bruised purple. "What have you done?" she whispered. I looked at my hands, which were starting to glow with that beautiful, messy "Obsidian-Violet" light once again, fed by the city's power grid. "I changed the script," I said. "And the first chapter starts now.”

"Oh. Um, thanks?" "I'm serious," she said, like I'd sounded doubtful, which I suppose I had. "You've got this whole quiet, mysterious thing going on. It's very intriguing." "I just don't talk much, I guess." "See, that's exactly what a mysterious person would say." The girl on her left grinned around a mouthful of fries, unbothered by her own joke, and stuck her hand out across the table. "I'm Zanele. This is Priya, obviously, and that's Beth."

** **UNAUTHORIZED INDIVIDUALIZATION OF SUCCESSOR DETECTED. **CUSTODIAL MODEL COMPROMISED.** Lucas whispered: “It doesn't like us.” The sky turned white. Then one final message appeared. **ROOT CORRECTION AUTHORIZED.** Elena's stomach dropped. Mother Zero stared upward. “Correction?” Mira looked at her.

Mark my words, I WILL find a way to kill you! Nozomi’s red eyes burned with an intensity that could freeze people. Her book abruptly shone with a dark purple light, attracting Hina’s and Yosuke’s attention. There was no longer a need to hide their books from each other. “A new spell? Now? Of all times? Why?” Hina wondered aloud. It had happened to her twice today. And now it was happening again, but to Nozomi. Nozomi opened her book and studied the new spell. “A mirror...?”
