Chapter 250 Something’s Wrong

A restless, formless dread settled over Steven and refused to move.

His instincts had been screaming at him since they entered the city, and right now they were louder than everything else.

He could feel it. The presence of beasts, enormous in number, pressing in from every direction at once, invisible but unmistakably there.

The suffocating weight of it pushed against him from all sides.

Steven made his call without hesitating.

“Olivia! We need to move! The captain is going to be fine!”

Edric’s voice cut through the noise right behind him. “Move! Now!”

The squad finally started shifting.

Then the world broke open.

A concussive force rolled through the entire district, and a boundary wall slammed upward around them. with terrifying speed, curving over the city like an inverted bowl with a radius of more than three miles.

It swallowed every person inside it whole.

Every face in the formation lost its color.

“What is that?”

“Where did that come from?”

Steven’s voice came out sharp and immediate. “Olivia! Contact the military right now! Emergency signal! Do it!”

He knew exactly what this was.

This was what Operation Moonfall had always been building toward.

The God Eaters intended to slaughter every single person trapped inside this barrier.

A few of the stronger fighters rushed the wall’s edge and hit something invisible and absolute.

It was a Quantum Barrier, dense and merciless.

Anyone who tried to pass through it would be dissolved on contact.

The fighters who tested it pulled back and regrouped.

Inside the barrier, Alan and Theodore were still fighting.

Both of them were past words, past reason, channeling everything they had into trying to end the other. fighting with the focused brutality of people who’d been waiting years for this moment.

A military officer’s voice cracked through the chaos. “When are you two going to stop?”

Neither man heard it, or if they did, it meant nothing.

This fight wouldn’t end until one of them went down.

Then someone’s voice cut across the group. “Our signal just dropped!”

The statement hit the squad like a physical impact.

Every attempt to reestablish contact failed. They had gone completely dark.

There was no connection to Draconia or anything outside this barrier.

A crushing wave of dread moved through every person present.

“Breach the wall! Find a way through!”

The fighters who’d been watching the duel all turned and began working on the barrier simultaneously. Origin energy cannons. Every technique available. Nothing worked.

The barrier’s foundation was nowhere to be found on the surface, because it was buried deep below the

earth.

The situation was as final as it felt.

One thought kept surfacing alongside the fear. Did the military not see any of this coming?

Edric spoke first. “They won’t stop. Not unless one of them falls.”

Everyone turned toward Edric.

He stood with his arms folded around his sword, watching two former squadmates try to destroy each other.

Steven pressed on, “What happened back then? I need to know. Whatever this is, it’s worse than anything we’ve walked into before.”

Edric’s eyes shifted.

Then he began to speak, and the sealed years cracked open.

“Yvonne was one of the gentlest people I’ve ever known,” he said quietly. “Everyone loved her. She was nice to every single person in that squad, and her ability matched both the captain and Theodore almost exactly.

“The moment both of them saw her, they both fell for her.

“After that, during all the campaigns we ran together, they competed constantly, and bpth of them eventually told her how they felt.

“She turned both of them down.

“But we could all see the toll it was taking on her. She was caught between them, and she was terrified that her presence was going to create a fracture between two people who were supposed to be brothers.

“To try to resolve it, she disappeared for a period of time.

“That disappearance only made things worse between them. Each blamed the other for it.

“When she came back, she wasn’t the same person. The warmth was gone. She was distant and cold, and she made it clear she wasn’t going to acknowledge either of them the way she had before,

“That widened the fracture further, and both sides continued blaming the other. The truth was that all

three of them were young, and too proud, and nobody ever sat down and talked it through honestly.

“The old captain at the time tried everything to get through to them. He couldn’t reach them. He had no choice but to let it run its course.”
