Edwin Lunar Chapter 56: The Flame Synchronization

Read chapter 56 of Edwin Lunar by MananTayal on NovelPedia.

Purple lightning tore across the skies of Lunar Dominion Academy. The corrupted Void entity was collapsing. Reality itself twisted around its breaking body while unstable energy spread across Sector Three like cracks through existence. Buildings floated apart unnaturally, debris dissolving into glowing fragments as the creature screamed in agony. If it exploded— Everything nearby would vanish. Students. Soldiers. Entire academy sectors. Carl stared at Edwin in disbelief. “You are absolutely NOT about to touch the unstable cosmic disaster.” Edwin ignored him. Silver wings of Flame energy spread wider behind his armor while the ring burned brighter than ever before. Across the battlefield— The giant friendly Void creature extended its hand toward him. Not as an enemy. As an ally. Lucien stepped forward sharply. “Edwin, think carefully.” But Edwin already understood. The ring was translating emotions now. And the creature was terrified. Not for itself— For everyone around it. The dying corrupted entity continued convulsing violently while distortion storms ripped through the district. Purple fractures spread rapidly through nearby buildings as Dominion soldiers evacuated civilians desperately. Iris checked her tactical scans again. “We have less than two minutes before total collapse!” Commander units shouted across emergency channels: “All personnel retreat immediately!” But Edwin remained standing still. Then slowly— He grabbed the Void creature’s hand. The battlefield froze. Silver and violet energy exploded outward instantly. BOOOOOOM. A massive shockwave surged across Sector Three while reality itself seemed to pause for one impossible second. Carl screamed emotionally. “HE TOUCHED THE SPACE HORROR!” The ring ignited completely. And Edwin’s consciousness vanished into light. Darkness surrounded him again. But this time— He was not alone. Endless stars drifted silently across an infinite void while streams of silver memories floated around him like fragments of dreams. And before him— The giant Void creature stood peacefully. Not monstrous anymore. Without the distortions and cosmic form— It looked almost human. Tall. Covered in flowing silver-purple markings. Its glowing eyes radiated ancient sadness. Edwin stared silently. “…This is your real form.” The being lowered its head slightly. Once. Its voice echoed softly through the stars. Edwin looked around carefully. “Where are we?” Between thought and Flame. Memories began appearing around them. Ancient civilizations. Orion worlds. Humans and Void entities standing together peacefully long before the Great War. Edwin’s eyes widened. “You lived with humanity?” Long ago. The being slowly touched one floating memory. A younger Edlin Lunar appeared laughing beside Void entities beneath glowing stars. She taught us emotion. Edwin’s chest tightened painfully. His mother looked happy. Truly happy. We did not understand life. Or love. Or loss. The being’s glowing eyes dimmed slightly. Until humanity. More memories appeared. Groader activating the Eclipse Heart. The Signal spreading violently. Void entities screaming as fear and hatred infected their minds. Entire worlds collapsing afterward. Edwin clenched his fists. “Groader corrupted all of you.” Fear spread faster than thought. The being looked toward the dying corrupted entity visible far away beyond the memories. Some never recovered. Silence filled the endless stars. Then Edwin asked the question haunting him most. “My mother…” The being looked directly at him. She still lives. Edwin froze completely. The stars around them dimmed. Beyond the final gateway. His heartbeat pounded violently. “She’s alive?” The being nodded slowly. She sealed herself beyond reality to stop the Signal from spreading fully. Pain crossed Edwin’s chest. His mother had sacrificed herself to save both humanity and the Void. And nobody knew. The being stepped closer carefully. You carry both worlds within you. Silver light spread around Edwin’s armor.
