      by Ember heart — Chapter 3 02. On the Ruined Land 1 “Ah…….” Cain had followed the road out of the Imperial Palace and stood silently for a long time. Everything had turned to ashes. He could not tell how much time had passed, but at least it did not seem that he had traveled into the past. After all, since the Imperial Capital was founded, it had never been trampled like this.

      by Ember heart — Chapter 2 2 It took Cain half a day to calm and organize his thoughts to some extent. During that time, his hot tears had already dried, and cold reason had taken their place, once again making Cain composed. He was the only person left alive here, but Cain tightly bit his lips with the determination to make sure their deaths would not be in vain. Flip. Flip. Cain's hands quickly turned the pages of the book. The first thing that caught his eye was the writing on the very first…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 3   He mumbled something that made no sense, moving his lips as if he could not even form the words. Then, all of a sudden, he jumped up as if he had stepped on a sharp nail. Crash! Clang, clang! All kinds of equipment that had been left rolling around on the floor because they had not been put away properly got caught on his feet and collided with each other. The noise of the metal pieces hitting one another was quite loud. Somehow, he managed not to fall. He hurriedly looked for…
