The Curator

Chapter 17:

"Where are we heading now?" one of the sailors slurred, barely able to sit upright. His breath reeked of cheap rum, and his glassy eyes swayed like sails in a storm.

The ship still soared high above the clouds, wind humming gently through the rigging. A few drunken crewmen had already top...

Chapter 285: One Final Gambit

Thalion stood tall, his breath shallow as he watched Ankhet conjure a ghostly, tormented face in the palm of his hand. A spectral visage twisted in pain, its mouth open in a silent scream. Thalion knew with grim certainty. He wasn’t ready to withstand that kind of attack. His bloodline skill wa...

Chapter 284: Thalion vs Ankhet Endgame

I’m so fucked, Thalion thought, heart pounding like war drums. The specter wasn’t giving up. It clung to him like death’s shadow, its ghastly wings slicing through the air in relentless pursuit. No matter how fast he flew or how sharply he turned, it stayed on his tail. His lightni...

Chapter 283: A Glimpse of Ankhet's True Power

The entire chamber trembled as Ankhet unleashed his beam attack. The black ray widened to over a meter and a half, tearing through the translucent souls only Thalion could perceive because of his title. But as the beam passed through them, it grew into something monstrous. Before, it had been lik...

Chapter 16

Orlan walked through the vast, hallowed halls of the temple dedicated to his divine patron—Uriel, Flame of God and Guardian of Sacred Truth. Every step echoed beneath the towering ceilings, carved from polished marble that shimmered under the golden light of enchanted braziers. Ornate mosaics c...

Chapter 282: Violence Unbound - Thalion vs Ankhet

Thalion raced through a narrow corridor that plunged deeper into the earth, twisting like a living creature. He emerged in a vast, chilly chamber, kilometers beneath the surface. The air was crisp, punctuated by the rhythmic drip of water striking stone. He halted his mistform, panting, as Ankhet...

Chapter 15

"Welcome, my dear humans!" I declared, levitating two meters above the deck, arms outstretched, grinning broadly. "I, the great Tiberius, have taken out the trash. You're welcome. Autographs upon request." I bowed dramatically as the crew, cautiously emerging from below deck after the screams had...

Chapter 14

The fishmen had no idea what was coming from below. Even those still submerged in the ocean remained unaware of the approaching threat. Naturally, their senses didn’t extend far enough to detect it—and whatever was closing in seemed to know exactly how to stay hidden. A thousand years sealed ...

Chapter 13

That question struck deeper than any blade. It seemed not everyone had forgotten me and judging by the hatred flickering in their eyes, the old tales had held more truth than I cared to admit. Of course, who else could it be? I had long earned the title of bane among their kind.

Not that ...

Chapter 281: Crimson Dominion

"I never wanted to hit you," Thalion called out to Ankhet with a crooked smile, gesturing toward the three fallen vampires behind him. Each of them lay still, their corpses now overgrown with crimson flowers blooming from blood thorns embedded in their chests. The grotesque beauty of it painted t...

Chapter 12

The situation was far worse than I had anticipated. Not only were the fishmen adept fighters, but they also wielded the Aether with surprising finesse. On the other side stood Rafael’s crew — brave, perhaps, but utterly unprepared for real combat. It was becoming clear that I’d have to inte...

Chapter 11

I must admit, I felt a sting of disappointment toward my fellow humans below deck. The moment they discovered the storage room brimming with supplies, they descended upon it like a pack of half-starved rats set loose in a granary. There was no decorum, no sense of restraint — only gluttony and ...

Chapter 10

What a breathtaking masterpiece I had just created. I stood at the rail, watching as the elven skyship slowly gained altitude, drifting high

What a breathtaking masterpiece I had just created. I stood at the rail, watching as the elven skyship slowly gained altitude, drifting higher with ea...

Chapter 9

I watched with idle amusement as Rafael flailed in the water, his desperate attempts to reach the elven ship growing more pitiful by the second. He looked less like a man swimming and more like a wounded animal paddling in circles, trapped in an endless struggle against the indifferent waves. A c...

Chapter 8

“Hey, what exactly are you trying to prove up there? Those elves probably have spells that let them breathe underwater or shield themselves,” Rafael called up to me from the plaza, his voice echoing faintly through the submerged ruins.

I glanced down at him, a sharp grin tugging at th...

Chapter 7

“No, you’re not leaving!” the void demon screeched, its voice clawing at the air as the boy reached the edge of the chamber — just seconds from escape.

That brief moment of distraction was all I needed. My fist shot upward in a brutal uppercut, the force lifting the demon clean of...

Chapter 6

“Uh, Mike? Hello? Are you okay?” Raphael’s voice wavered with concern as he stared at his friend, who now clung like a marionette to the magic barrier, his fingers clawing against it as if trapped in a nightmare.
Finally, I thought. Took the brat long enough to notice. ...

Chapter 5

"What do you want, brat?" I asked, my voice laced with irritation as I conjured a barrier around the elves and the other humans, ensuring they couldn’t eavesdrop. My current predicament wasn’t something I wanted broadcasted. My enemies would figure it out eventually, but every second they rem...

Chapter 4

"Ahh… That felt good."

I stretched, rolling my shoulders as my new form settled. It wasn’t my true body, of course—just a projection, bound to the amulet—but it was as close as I could get. A thousand times better than being trapped inside. My gaze drifted to the ...

Chapter 3

"Impossible! How can an angel walk on this plane?" Mike exclaimed, his voice laced with disbelief. Rafael glanced at him, surprised—if even Mike, with all his knowledge of magic, was stunned, then this was far beyond anything they had ever encountered.

Rafael himself had no idea how one...

Chapter 2

The water was cold, and the currents were strong. Rafael was surprised that he couldn’t see any fish nearby. They had likely fled from the elves or were simply too far away to spot. The water wasn’t entirely clear, and his vision was limited to about fifty meters below. Mike, however, seemed ...

Chapter 1

Far from the human coast, a lone ship battled its way through towering waves, each one threatening to swallow it whole. The storm raged with relentless fury, rain lashing against the deck like a thousand tiny whips, while the wind howled like an enraged beast. Lightning split the sky, momentarily...

Prolog

<author note>
So here we go this chapter was already shared once.

Synopsis:

Once, there was an ancient empire ruled by an immortal human. He was undefeated and feared throughout the realms of existence. After a battle with the avatar of the V...

Chapter 280: Trying to stay alive

Thalion’s aura erupted like a furious beast unleashed from its cage. It surged outward in a wave of searing pressure, crackling with raw violence. The combined killing intent of both him and the Sanguis Impera poured into the surroundings like liquid fire. Crimson embers flickered in the air ar...

Chapter 279: Sanguis Impera

Thalion awoke slowly, as if surfacing from the depths of a dreamless sleep. For a moment, he lay still, wrapped in warmth, calm, and something else—something deeper. Then it hit him. Power surged through his body like a storm unbound. It roared in his veins, sang in his muscles, and hummed bene...

Chapter 278: Ankhet

Althirion and his group had nearly reached the pillar when it began to hum with a low, ominous resonance. The black veins running along its surface pulsed violently, glowing like fractures in reality—raw, seething power threatening to consume the world. The aura it unleashed struck like a tidal...

Chapter 277: Breaking the Final Blockade

It took more than fifteen tense minutes before the scout finally returned from the elves’ side. Sweat streamed down his dirt-smeared face, and his breath came in ragged gasps. He had clearly pushed himself to the limit, sprinting back with urgency carved into every movement. Without pausing to ...

Chapter 276: On the Brink of Victory

"Hey! Stop standing around frozen and help us!" Josh shouted, his voice cutting through the chaos as he danced away from another bone-cracking swipe of the undead wyvern.

High above, a colossal crimson flower loomed over the battlefield. The bloom at its peak remained tightly shut, glowing...

Chapter 275: The Eclipsari’s Wrath

The vampiress landed before Thalion with a feral snarl, her claws already mid-swing. The jungle’s flames had long since sputtered out—only a few flickering tongues of fire still clung to life around him, vanishing without fuel or guidance. Until now, Thalion had played defensively, dodging he...

Chapter 274: All Out

The jungle below thrummed with raw, ancient energy as the vampiress finally unleashed the skill she had been preparing in silence. A deep pulse rippled through the canopy like a shockwave. Thalion barely had a moment to register what was happening before she vanished and reappeared directly befor...
