The Buried Giant Novels & Stories

But beneath the entire island. Far out across the cliffs… The ocean itself began to churn. Something enormous was rising from beneath the water. A structure. Hidden for twenty-six years. Steel. Glass. Black stone. An entire underground facility emerged from the sea. Bigger than the observatory. Bigger than the Quinn estate. Bigger than anyone could have imagined. Aurora stared in disbelief. “What…” Elias smiled through tears. “…Welcome…” “…to the real Quinn legacy.” The ocean continued to roar.

asked Gerald, feeling extremely confused as he was bewildered. “I… don’t quite get the latter part… It mentions something about the old beggar knowing black magic…? Apparently, the moment the burial ceremony was over, he laughed a few times before disappearing into thin air! Right after that, a massive object appeared that shrouded the entire royal city! It’s… improbable to say the least, but it looks like a battleship! I… can’t make sense of this part either…” replied Giya as she shook her head. How the hell could such a huge battleship even exist thousands of years ago?!

The fog itself began to lift, revealing the true nature of the realm: a place of ancient power and forgotten secrets. As the dust settled, the Gaia clan stood victorious, but their victory was short-lived. The ground continued to tremble, and the distant sound of stone grinding against stone reached their ears. "The God Giant Statue," Selena whispered, her eyes widening in horror. "It's still emerging." The group turned to see a massive stone figure rising from the earth, its eyes glowing with an otherworldly light. The statue towered over them, its presence casting a shadow that seemed to swallow the light around it.

"Daniel, the Antarctic project wraps up soon. When are you returning?" I removed the snow goggles from my face, brushing the frost off my lashes. I gave a faint smile. "Tomorrow." My mother's memorial was coming up. Next month, to be exact. It was time to go back. To take a look. To remember. "That case you reported—the illegal mountain excavation—made waves. The perpetrator got three years." He squinted at his notes. "Sarah Hargrave? Same name as your ex-fiancée, that history professor. Strange for an academic to be involved in—"

This made me laugh self-depricatingly. Seriously, I must be really blind in the past. It had been the same in the previous life. Ryan had hurriedly whisked me away. Eve was left to wait for his return all by herself. When he came back with the rescue team, the pod had already been buried under thick snow. Eve was left behind on the cold mountain forever. After that, Ryan showed very little emotion, even appearing indifferent at times. I had suggested taking Eve in as my adopted sister in order to help elevate her status, but he rejected it.

That maybe something buried in the dark could still find the strength to rise. Their love was buried beneath sin—and still, it rose, unbreakable.

He looked at the turbulent river and asked with a frown, "Clara, are you really going to save him? Aren't you afraid of losing another hand?" As I tied the rope, I smiled mysteriously. "If one hand can bring about the destruction of all the evildoers, it's not considered a loss." The man was confused. "What do you mean?" I smiled. "James, after I left the Glory Pack and returned home, I discovered that there was another half to the ancient scroll my grandfather left behind. It contains the true method to break the formation..."

The voice on the other end of the line rose, cutting through the speaker so sharply it seemed to rattle the dishes on the table. "I found Julian 440 yards above Camp One, at the bottom of a cliff. His whole body is frozen solid. And he was still clutching a torn piece of note in his hand."

Leah's legs kicked at empty air, her nails clawing at his wrist as her lungs screamed for air. "If you had taken charge of your home, if you had controlled Vance instead of falling stupidly in love with him, we would not be buried in this mess." He hurled her aside. Leah hit the marble floor hard, pain lancing up her spine, and her head cracked against the grey wall behind her. Tears sprang to her eyes, but she bit them back. She knew better than to let him see her break. "I will not let that worthless girl tear apart everything I spent years building." Elder Jonathan's jaw worked, his mind churning with plans he had no intention of sharing. He turned to Kiara. "You have seven days to put th

He grabbed a passing doctor and demanded, "Where's Melanie Green?" The doctor looked at him like he'd never seen someone so breathtakingly stupid. "The girl who got hit by the machine? She just died."
