Path to Prosperity - B3 Chapter 45

Percy tried to consume the Demonic Essence coursing through the children, but rescue came too late for some of them. Once the Demonic Essence nestled in the children, consuming their mana and altering their mana reservoir permanently, the demonified couldn’t be salvaged.

The streams of mana flickered violently, trying to escape the darkness pursuing it.

It wiggled and writhed desperately, but it was to no avail. The corruption had already spread too far. Too long. It couldn’t be stopped anymore. It…was everywhere.

A big mass of darkness clinged on...

The gate to David’s cell opened only a few minutes after he closed his eyes. He opened his eyes to see the dwarf captain from the other days standing in the cell.

David rubbed his eyes and let out a deep groan. He had an interesting talk with Zachariah, one that felt like it lasted an ete...

The remains of the Devil’s power and the Demon Lord’s corpse were far more potent than Percy had expected. However, he was the last to complain about something like that. The more potent his targets were, the greater the gains!

It was over. The Demon Lord was dead, defeated by the Beast King.

The Beast King breathed heavily, his chest heaving up and down, blood spurting out of the wounds all over his body with every breath, but he was still alive. He glanced at Percy, his eyes two blazing suns, and roared again. View Post

They were sent to Arc’s prison, a small structure in the Familia’s basement with a handful of cells. However, none were occupied—until David and Zachariah arrived.

David was pulled into one of the identical cells with a cold stone floor, plain stone walls, and an ordinary iron gate. I...

A cold blade pressed firmly against David’s neck, the unknown man’s words resounding in his head.

Regressor?

What was he talking about? David had no idea, but he wasn’t going to enable the man’s antics. Not after the blade on his neck cut into him.

He willed the...

The demonified children were semi-conscious. They responded to Percy’s touch and stirred when he inserted mana into their broken bodies. Once mana circulated through their mana paths, stimulating their beastial regeneration, Percy retrieved several glass vials. They were Healing Potions, Regene...

Apocalypse Healer - B2 Prologue

“Is that what you wanted?” A hoarse, overbearing voice reverberated through the divine hall.

Dazzling lights materialized near the source of the voice and gathered to shape the frame of a tall, towering woman.

“What I wanted? I have nothing to do with this mess,” Her sonorous ...

Zachariah walked through the remains of a once-bustling city, each crumbled structure a faint echo of the Earthen Union's prosperity just weeks ago.

Percy trailed down the cavern tunnel to close the distance to the mana vein. Something about it was odd, but it was hard to grasp at a distance. However, as he ventured deeper, Percy noticed something in the air.

The Succubus’ purple eyes stared empty at Percy. They were once bright and full of life, but now all that’s left is emptiness. Percy’s chest heaved up and down heavily. Even though he’d been healed by the Healing Potion merely minutes ago, he was injured again. His body was covered in mod...

There were still some Demons left in the cavern hall. A minority, a few dozen compared to the hundreds who’d been roaming the cavern hall before, but they exuded far more pressure than the rest. The remaining survivors were the strongest Demons under the Succubus’ control.

Stabbing himself didn’t feel great. 

David felt every moment as his razor-sharp, soulbound weapon cut through his skin and flesh. It scraped his rib cage and dug deeper until most of its hilt disappeared in David’s chest. 

His chest heaved with effort, each breath sendin...

Once his mind was cleared and the Succubus’ bewitching powers stopped working, Percy realized what must have happened.

The Runes of his Class Skills had yet to fully form, but David was already tapping into the instincts nestled in his mind. Even though his understanding of the Class Skills and the Law of Blood was low—really low – he could still use them just fine. Once everything was complete, that is.

The Thyrx didn’t take long to regain balance, but that was enough to draw the Greater Demon’s blood. Dragon Fang, infused with pure mana, severed the Greater Demon’s left blade arm. The arm flung through the air, and blood spurted in all directions. Some dripped on Percy’s face, but he ig...

Percy wasn’t impressed by the cave. Its entrance was rather large, with a height of five meters and a width nearing ten meters, but that was about all that could be considered extraordinary. Otherwise, it appeared to be an average cave.
