“Here is your drink, young master,” A waitress in fancy clothes said as she placed a cold beer on the table in front of Adion.
“Thank you,” Adion said with a nod.
The waitress smiled and stepped outside, leaving Adion alone in the private room.
How long will sh...

“That’s amazing,” Creva said, rubbing her sleepy eyes, “Makes you wake right up.”
She walked closer and examined the painting Adion had just finished.
“Is that a Soul beast? A member of the Aphelian Apes of Iitha?” Creva asked.
“Oh? You know about them?” ...

“I heard about what happened. I’m sorry if my family bothered you,” Creva said apologetically as the city of Deller disappeared behind them.
“It’s fine,” Adion said. He had only had an hour or two for himself in the library yesterday before various members from the Helmis ...

What a magnificent city. Adion thought as he put his head out through the carriage window and looked down the road.
The city of Deller sprawled out in somewhat of a jumbled mess, but there was beauty in the chaos.
“Quite the beautiful city, don’t you think?” Creva...

Adion pulled away his brush from the canvas and breathed out. The painting depicted the dining table at his Grandpa’s manor in Cyalis, Adion was playing cards with his siblings in it.
It’s strange, even if this was a new memory, I still felt like I had a little control.

“That’s right,” Adion said with a smile, “You recognize me?”
“How…What are you doing here? Aren’t you supposed to be in the Saba Desert?” The Diamond mage asked in confusion, but also obvious joy.

“You went out there all alone?” One of the Silver mage guards asked in astonishment as Adion walked up.
It was a normal reaction. Adion had hidden his strength down to middle Bronze, after all. Being this deep in the Outskirts with that kind of strength was strange, especially all alone...

“Sell,” Lastia’s voice sounded hesitantly from behind.

White’s large eyes flickered open, and when he saw the painting, he asked, “Is that me?”

Adion could hardly believe it.
What is White doing here? And he’s a Diamond beast now?

He grabbed hold of the space above the eagle, teleporting ove...

Adion woke up early in the morning. It was still dark around him, but as he glanced to the end of the nest he had slept in, he could tell that the sun had risen.
