“What do you mean he wants the skills I have?” Dallion asked.
Before he could receive an answer, the dream came to an abrupt end and Dallion felt a deep sensation of malice coming from all directions. Fractions of a second later, he sensed something as well—the cold sensation of void....
2022-08-16 23:47:44 +0000 UTC View PostDallion let out a sigh of relief the moment he stepped out of the countess’ palace. Whoever had said that there were no secrets for a domain ruler was scarily right. Dallion had always suspected that the nobles secretly knew the link between him and his grandfather. Now he had seen the proof. C...
2022-08-16 02:21:51 +0000 UTC View PostNews of a new awakened in the Gremlin’s Timepiece quickly spread throughout the Nerosal. Fury servants were quite common, but having an awakened one was enough to attract crowds. As a level one, Diroh was only able to upgrade one item per day, and Hannah had restricted mending to only a couple,...

There was nothing like a few hours of calm and serenity among the underground fields and orchards now that the gardens were in full bloom. Of course, it helpe...
2022-08-15 01:22:32 +0000 UTC View PostChests from the earl’s treasury started arriving a few hours later. They were considerably bigger than Theo had expected, and refreshingly useful. Sadly, they couldn’t compare to the heart core, but they were in enough amounts for the dungeon to strengthen the town wall as well as create a fe...
2022-08-15 01:20:30 +0000 UTC View PostHello, all!
There won't be any posts tomorrow Saturday the 13th.
Things should continue as normal the following day :)
Thanks and take care! :)
2022-08-12 20:58:16 +0000 UTC View PostEntering the Gremlin’s Timepiece was different from usual. Upon seeing the fury, Hannah promptly chased out the few regulars, then closed and locked the door. Dallion was tempted to use the opportunity to go to the kitchen to get a proper meal. That was going to have to wait, though.
“T...
2022-08-12 20:56:24 +0000 UTC View Post“Don’t look back,” Dallion whispered as they walked away from Halburn. “Just keep walking calmly.”
Getting into a scuffle with a noble wasn’t how Dallion imagined things would go. Based on what Jiroh had told him in his dream, he had pictured it as an infiltration and rescue ope...
2022-08-11 20:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostFor the first time in quite a while Dallion had witnessed something that not only defied explanation to him, but all of his guardians as well.
Nil insisted that Hailstorm wasn’t a skill, and a quick check in Diroh’s awakening room proved that. Other than the ice dagger, there was no new...
2022-08-10 21:07:27 +0000 UTC View Post“Why are you with the hero?” the skeletal warrior asked.
He was a lot more impressive than Cmyk could ever be. Standing seven feet tall, covered by large slabs of metal armor, he could easily stand up to any of the gnomework suits of Lord Mandrake. If Theo was to guess, this would pass ...
2022-08-10 14:07:32 +0000 UTC View PostThe dungeon’s avatar slowly floated down to the floor. As it did, ice emerged, creeping up along the walls of the chamber, sealing it from any external interference. The temperature drop was so intense that several of the talismans worn shattered off the avatar’s neck. Interestingly enough, t...
2022-08-10 14:05:14 +0000 UTC View Post“Nox,” Dallion said.
Instantly, the puma-like crackling emerged, leaping onto the ground a step away. His appearance was very different from the cub that Dallion had taken years ago. The eagerness and enthusiasm had gradually been replaced by lethal predator skills and lots of sleep. On...
2022-08-09 00:29:01 +0000 UTC View Post“There’s no one there,” a mercenary fury said as Dallion kept knocking on the door of Diroh’s inn.
“Seems so.” Dallion turned around. “What happened? There used to be lots of hunter inns a few months ago.”
“Guess you haven’t been here a bit longer than that.” The...
2022-08-08 16:43:29 +0000 UTC View PostThe inn’s kitchen emerged around Dallion. His eyes moved about, readjusting to the new reality. Even after all this time, he hadn’t gotten used to the experience completely.
“Did you make it?” Aspan asked, as a copy of him placed a plate of food on the table, in front of Dallion. 2022-08-07 23:17:30 +0000 UTC View Post

2022-08-07 11:17:45 +0000 UTC View PostOh, crap! Dallion thought as he looked at the actions his opponent had done.
So far, the Archduke hadn’t entered a single structure. Instead, he was creating a wide perimeter, circling a large chunk of the room. As he walked, the tiles beneath him lit up in a deep blue. The echo ...
2022-08-05 23:41:22 +0000 UTC View PostAll four wall segments of the arena crumbled down, revealing the rest of the room. It had changed substantially since moments ago. There were guild halls, two-story merchant centers, three-story guard forts, as well as a few temples, and several noble mansions. One thing that the archduke hadn’...
2022-08-05 14:54:00 +0000 UTC View PostA cool breeze greeted Dallion as he entered his realm. The echoes had changed things a bit, transforming the landmass into a crescent island connected through miles long suspended bridge to an archipelago of islands. Each of the main guardians had their own domains: the haprsisword had retained h...
2022-08-04 23:09:32 +0000 UTC View PostThe only thing that Theo could say about the Silvarians was that they were the least elvish elves he could think of.

2022-08-04 11:48:53 +0000 UTC View Post“Jiroh?” Dallion took a step back in the air. “I thought you left.”
“Nice to see you haven’t lost your rough edges even after all that leveling up. I’m still in my world, but my Moon agreed to let me talk to you.”
“This is a dream?” Dallion looked at his hand, tryi...
2022-08-02 00:03:43 +0000 UTC View PostGoing back to Nerosal was also an experience. After the rogue mage was dealt with, the poison plague was no longer viewed as the threat it had been before. However, the walls and patrols remained. There the empire wasn’t at war, but Dallion had heard it be said that skirmishes were a daily occu...

Meanwhile, aether spheres were listing people, a dozen at a time, up inside. It was a wasteful way of using energy, but the sooner the whole group could start the trip to Rosewind, the better.

Gleam, at it! Dallion ordered as he summoned his dartblade.
Using that might be a bit optimistic on your pa...
2022-07-31 14:34:29 +0000 UTC View PostAfter the recent encounter, the trip to Linadol was long, but uneventful. There were times at which Dallion almost hoped that something would appear and attack, but the few wilderness creatures that he sensed were quick to move as far away as possible.
The new skill had changed Euryale, as ...
2022-07-30 15:55:16 +0000 UTC View PostMulti-tasking was a difficult skill in the best of times. It was said to be the trait of successful generals, rulers, and merchant masterminds.

2022-07-30 00:39:38 +0000 UTC View PostThe day waiting turned into two, then three. Dallion did not complain, for it gave him a chance to rest and heal thanks to Lux. Getting used to his new ability was somewhat more difficult, but thanks to enough guidance from Nil and Vihrogon, he learned to ignore the talk of the plants most of the...
