Chapter 264
Kai stared at Veridia, eyes widening before he caught himself and forced his expression into something neutral. What was she doing here?
She hadn’t been invited—he was sure of it. She wasn’t like Count Blackbough, whose presence could at least be tolerated for the ...
Chapter 263
Kai stepped into the banquet hall and everything in the air shifted. Every eye turned towards him within seconds and in the span of a breath, the high of conversations dulled to murmurs, then faded altogether. Soon, it was replaced by glances and whispers that rippled through t...
Chapter 153
Haoran stared at the untidy stack of letters spread across the desk, the ink still glistening in places. He had been scribbling reports since dawn, and now the sight of them only made him sigh.
A draft slipped through the cracks in the shutters, making his neck hair stan...
Chapter 262
A thing about enemies was that, even if they couldn’t stand each other—couldn’t breathe the same air without wanting to tear the other apart—they also couldn’t stand the thought of the other getting a head start.
It was obvious once Kai had learned how Baroness...
Chapter 152
Chen Ren froze.
The Darkmoon Sect Leader Gao Moyue casually strolled toward him. His hands were clasped behind his back as if he was just out for an afternoon walk. But with the pressing weight of his gaze, there was nothing casual about his presence.
From behind...
Chapter 261
Kai got busy the next day, so much so that he didn’t have time to worry about Queen Regina’s retaliation. He left the matter with a simple instruction to Killian—increase the security around them. Not that he expected anything to happen just yet. If Regina was going to st...
Chapter 151
When Wang Jun first told him about the Bloodroot Ascension Pill, he’d also given a warning—one that still lingered in Chen Ren’s mind. Back in his day, it wasn’t known as a “righteous path” pill at all. In fact, blood arts were almost exclusively the domain of demon...
Chapter 150
When Chen Ren stepped out of the stone chamber, the first thing he noticed was the sunlight, then the other alchemist already gathered, and finally, the cheer that erupted from the crowd.
He doubted it was for him.
More likely, it was the audience finally releasi...
Chapter 260
Kai slowly sat down. Without a care, he let his eyes sweep around the room. He was quite surprised.
Unlike what he’d imagined, the room didn’t look that different from other affluent chambers he’d passed on his way here. If anything, it was tamer in comparison. Ev...
Chapter 259
Kai looked at King Sullivan with wide eyes, having not expected him to be so direct, but he quickly controlled his emotions, seeing that the man wasn’t joking.
“I really don’t think you can just give it to me,” Kai said, wording out his realistic opinion.
Chapter 149
The rounds moved by pretty fast.
After the first two rounds, Chen Ren felt that they had grown steadily harder and far more specific. From making pills using limited ingredients to identifying and replicating one based only on taste, the trials had quickly separated the ...
Chapter 148
A big ball of qi and herbs simmered in front of Chen Ren as he followed Wang Jun's instructions precisely. But it turned out doing exactly as he said was far more time consuming than he had expected. The hourglass was already close to emptying out one side, and he wasn’t fini...
Chapter 258
Wind whipped through Kai’s hair as he flew across the sky above the city. It was late—close to midnight—yet Hermil still glowed with life. Lanterns lined the main roads, lights flickered above noble estates, and the sounds of people carried even at the height where Kai ho...
Chapter 147
The trials began with a simple round that Chen Ren had already anticipated. One he absolutely needed to cheat through.
“The first round,” the announcer declared in a high-pitched voice that rang across the coliseum, “will be the task that every alchemist faces on ...
Chapter 257
Kai went to sleep thinking about explosions, and not the kind that came from fireballs or collapsing towers. But the kind that happened when two opposing forces refused to back down.
In spell theory, things were much less… complicated. When two equal circle spells of ...
Chapter 146
"After all this time—shoving me in this less-than-affluent room like some forgotten trinket—you come crawling back, begging for my help to win an alchemy competition? You really are shameless,” Wang Jun said, huffing at him.
“First of all—yes. I’m shameless. ...
Chapter 256
Mana bubbled up from Amara’s heart, threading through her veins. Just a year ago, such a thing would have left her writhing in agony. Her body would’ve rejected it, her blood screaming with every pulse of magic. But now… now it felt almost pleasurable. The flow was comfor...
Chapter 145
If Chen Ren was being honest, he preferred this kind of war.
There was always something refreshing about knowing where your enemies were, when they’d strike and how. It was exhausting to keep looking over his shoulder, always wondering if there would be an attack or no...
Chapter 255
Unlike the last time he had visited Lancephil, Kai and his entourage weren’t staying in the royal castle.
With nobles from across the kingdom arriving for the Assembly, even the massive, uncountable halls of the royal castle weren’t enough to house them all. Only the...
Hello everyone, thank you for supporting the books we have put out till now and I have a very big announcement to make today. After the success of book 1 of Magus Reborn, the second volume is finally out today.
If you have read book 1 on Amazon or audible or just given out ratings, please...
Chapter 254
Stories have been told, countless as stars—scrawled on scrolls, carved in stone, sung in taverns near and far. Legends of old, of valor and flame, of forgotten kings and beasts none could tame. Yet among these tales, one rises tall. A tale not first, but finest of all.
Chapter 144
Feiyu stared at the diagrams tacked onto the board in front of him, a rare smile tugging at his grime-streaked face.
Rifles were scattered across the workshop—some complete, while others cracked open mid-modification. Bullet casings rolled underfoot, and gunpowder hung...
Chapter 143
Gao Moyue looked over the collection of artifacts he had gathered across the centuries. Once a month, without fail, he devoted time to cleaning them purely out of reverence.
His gaze first landed on the dark, weather-worn armor mounted along the wall. It was made from t...
Chapter 253
Amyra cast her eyes across the horizon, staring out over the dead, barren lands that stretched endlessly in every direction. The ground was cracked and gray, and the air stank of rot and ash. Every breath felt like swallowing decay. She wrinkled her nose and reflexively activat...
Chapter 252
The war between the tribals and the orcs was over.
To Kai’s immense relief, the tribals had won. And not just won, all factors considered, they had dominated.
According to Feroy’s report, the orcs had been prepared. Their formations had been ready with weapo...
Chapter 142
Yeqing sat in front of Elder Tiefang, a wide smile stretched across his face as he took a long, satisfying sip from the cup in his hand. The herbal tea—made from mountain-grown leaves around the sect—was leagues above anything he’d tasted during his days impersonating Han...
Chapter 251
Kai couldn’t tell when it happened.
But one moment, he was sparring with Valkyrie and the next moment, he woke up with a heaviness that felt like his entire body was dragging him down. Like something had reached inside and wrung every drop of strength from his limbs.<...
Chapter 141
Yeqing had come to the conclusion that the worst part of being a spy wasn’t the danger.
It was pretending to be weak.
To bow his head before every passing cultivator with a gleam of awe in his eyes. To speak like he was a speck of dust in the world, grateful for...
Chapter 140
Chen Ren stepped into the back room with Anji and Yalan in tow. The wooden door clicked shut behind them, muffling the noise of customers and their conversations. Inside, the room was quieter than a grave, the only sound a soft creak as they took their seats.
Anji’s ey...
Chapter 250
Kai found himself fighting at the peak of his power in the soul space. He moved through the blue sky like a streak of flame, and his robe crackled with heat. A spear of fire and wind twisted in his hand.
The best thing about this space was that it didn’t follow the na...
