Beyond the Gate: The Last Gozzaki - Capítulo 20

20: Beyond the Gate: The Last Gozzaki Chapter 20: The Weight of a Stolen Life 20: Beyond the Gate: The Last Gozzaki Chapter 20: The Weight of a Stolen Life Chapter 20: The Weight of a Stolen Life Inside the cold, dark void of the shadow world, Xyron looked up at the throne where Ryan was currently “connected” to the outside world.

“Okay, Ryan,” Xyron’s voice echoed.

“You’ve seen her.

You’ve hugged her.

Now give me my body back.” Ryan let out a long, weary sigh through Xyron’s lungs.

“Not yet, little brother.

I want to stay out here a bit longer.

You don’t understand—I’ve been trapped inside your soul for 25 years.

Do you have any idea what it’s like to be a ghost for a quarter of a century?

Let me enjoy the fresh air and the taste of real food for once.” Xyron turned to Maki, hoping for support.

“Maki, tell him to stop!

I have things to do.” Maki looked at Xyron’s face—seeing the brother she had mourned for years—and her eyes filled with tears.

“Actually, Xyron…

I want to spend more time with Ryan too.

Just for tonight, okay?

Please.” Xyron felt a sharp sting in his heart.

He sat down in the darkness of his own mind, hugging his knees.

‘Great,’ he thought bitterly.

‘Even my own sister prefers this monster over me.

I’m just a vessel to them.’ [The Hunter Association – Chairman’s Office] Chairman Lee was reviewing files when the air in the room suddenly turned heavy.

A massive, suffocating wave of soul energy washed over the building.

It was purer and more terrifying than anything they had felt before.

The Chairman stood up instantly, his chair hitting the wall.

Yujo burst through the door, his face pale.

“Chairman!

Did you feel that?

It’s coming from the residential district.” “It’s immense,” the Chairman whispered, his eyes narrowing.

“A portal crack?

Or is an S-Rank knight losing control?

We need to move.

Now!” They scrambled into a black armored car.

Yujo took the wheel, driving like a madman toward the source.

The energy was leading them straight to the block where Xyron lived.

[Xyron’s Apartment] Ryan and Maki were sitting at the dinner table, eating the stew Maki had prepared.

Xyron was watching from the ‘inside,’ feeling ignored.

“Hey, can you guys at least hear me?

Is there anyone else I can jump into, Ryan?” Ryan didn’t even look up, continuing to laugh at one of Maki’s stories.

Xyron groaned and lay down in the black void.

‘I’m a prisoner in my own skin.’ Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

A loud, authoritative knock followed.

“I’ll get it,” Maki said, wiping her hands on her apron.

Ryan stayed at the table, but his eyes suddenly lost their purple glow.

Maki opened the door to see Chairman Lee and Yujo standing there, backed by an elite tactical squad.

“Chairman?

What are you doing here at this hour?” “Move aside, young lady,” Yujo said firmly.

“We detected a massive energy spike coming from inside this apartment.

We need to secure the area.” They pushed past her into the dining room.

But Ryan was gone.

Xyron was sitting at the table, his eyes their normal brown, looking confused and tired.

The terrifying energy had vanished completely.

“Sir, it was coming from right here,” Yujo said, pointing his sensor at Xyron.

“But…

it’s gone now.” Chairman Lee walked up to Xyron, staring into his eyes.

“Xyron Gozzaki.

That energy came from you.

What are you hiding?” “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Xyron lied, his voice flat.

“I was just eating dinner with my sister.” “He’s telling the truth!” Maki cried out.

Chairman Lee didn’t look convinced.

“Yujo.

Take him in.” Without hesitation, Yujo stepped forward and slammed a pair of Mana-Suppression Handcuffs onto Xyron’s wrists.

“Hey!

What did he do?!” Maki screamed, trying to pull Yujo away.

“We’re taking him for ‘questioning’ to ensure public safety,” Yujo said with a cold smirk.

“Don’t worry, if he’s as ‘weak’ as his rank says, he’ll be back soon.” As they led Xyron out of the apartment, he caught a glimpse of Ryan in his mind.

Ryan was laughing.

‘Welcome to my world, little brother.

Let’s see how you handle being a prisoner.’ Editor’s Comment: The secret is out!

Ryan’s power was too much to hide, and now Xyron is paying the price in Mana-Suppression cuffs.

With the Chairman personally involved and Yujo looking for blood, Xyron is heading into the lion’s den.

Will Ryan help him escape, or is this all part of his plan to take over permanently?
