Chapter 733: The Rebirth of Edith
Layer-0, Underground Basement Hall, Rebirth Tower, Iron Kingdom
A pale, eerie glow filled the subterranean chamber—cold, sterile, and humming with mystical energy. Dozens of cylindrical clone pods lined the walls, each filled with translucent amniotic liquid that pulsed with faint red-orange runes.
Six of the pods were active—inhabited. Within them, humans of various ages floated lifelessly, their bodies half-formed or suspended in critical stages of development.
Only three had reached adult form.
At the center of the hall, a long metal table lay under bright rune-lights. On it, Charles rested in silence, his face heavily bandaged. His eyes were completely covered in cloth.
Standing beside him was Runeth, his gloved hand faintly glowing with golden runes as he examined the bandages.
