[ToM] Chapter 116 – Magic Lessons

Melina chuckled nervously. Alistair looked less than pleased as he looked at the carnage going on in the kitchen. He had witnessed Melina grinding her skills in the past, so he was well aware what it entailed and how taxing it could be. 

"Melina…" he narrowed his eyes. "Please, tell ...

[ToM] Chapter 115 – Skill Grind

Melina never thought that she would be relieved not to see Alistair first thing in the morning. Master Gilbert was eyeing her suspiciously the whole morning. He didn't know what grinding was or how it worked, but the look in his eyes told Melina that he wouldn't rest until he found out.

"Wh...

[MGE] Chapter 37 – Inside Cyene

You idiot! Get out of here!

But Liora wasn't about to leave without her prize. She searched frantically among the papers scattered on the floor for the pass. There was an audible sound of running footsteps in the hallway.

Come on, come on! I need it!

[ToM] Chapter 114 – Arcane Skills

Alistair felt nervous. His patrol was over this late evening, and he should feel relieved. But increased monster activity after the festival, as well as the drow assassin, made him a bit jumpy. Even if logically everything was still well within the norm they could handle, he couldn't help but wor...

[MGE] Chapter 36 – Special Pass

This suuuuckks!

Do poor people have to go through this each time they want to enter a city? It's utterly dreadful.

"Please tell me that we have moved closer," Kiva complained.

"Nope!" Kalen said.

"I'm sure there's a good reason for this,"...

[ToM] Chapter 113 – Battle Plan

Melina stopped walking at Elowen's cold words. Did he really just suggest to… kill the other Archmage candidates? She couldn't quite believe her ears.

"No… If you're going to go about this the worst way possible, I won't tell you anything," Melina said in a low growl.

"The whole w...

[MGE] Chapter 35 – Bacon, Beetles, and Breakthroughs

"Sister, please calm down!" Kalen called in a vain attempt to calm Serena.

"She's gone! Oh, no! What if a monster got her? You should have watched her more closely, Kalen!" Serena wailed.

"Will you calm down? It's just a bird. I bet it just flew away when the sun rose," Kiva said.

[MGE] Chapter 34 – Magic Training

Unfortunately for Liora, as the night took hold, the three adventurers headed to sleep. Two of them did, at least. The boy, Kalen, remained awake to keep watch for any monsters. Liora had no choice but to pretend to be sleeping too, even though she wasn't sleepy in the slightest.

She consid...

[ToM] Chapter 112 – Farmer and Elf

Elowen groaned as bright sunlight filtered through the curtains of his room. Once again, he woke up with an unpleasant headache as more and more of his old memories returned. It was this way ever since Melina admitted the truth about her past and what she had done. As if her words had unlocked hi...

[ToM] Chapter 111 – Magic Pastries

The morning began much like any other for Melina. She woke up at the first rays of the sun, when most people were still soundly sleeping in their beds. Looking out of the window, the vegetables and fruits in the garden were growing nicely. It was a perfectly peaceful sight.

But Melina's hea...

[MGE] Chapter 33 – Water Nymph

(The image above roughly portrays Liora's new evolution)

This is amazing!

Liora gushed as she marveled at the strength of her new wings. It wasn't to say that her magpie wings were weak—she had been able to perform quite amazing aerial manoeuvres. But she got tired easily w...

[ToM] Chapter 110 – Together

"Good day, Lord Sinclair," Melina said, getting up from her seat. She hurriedly hid Sienna from Alistair's brother's sight. The wyrm got the hint, crawling underneath her dress, while Melina performed a curtsy as a greeting.

Richard scoffed. "They even teach monkeys manners these days, I se...

[MGE] Chapter 32 – Second Evolution

Liora took a shaky breath and reached out for Renir, intending to put him in her Inventory.

"No, leave me outside," he said.

"Why? Somebody might find you while I go through evolution," Liora asked. 

She didn't like the idea of leaving Renir exposed while she slept in her e...

[ToM] Chapter 109 – Ever Closer

Melina couldn't quite believe her ears. In her mind, there couldn't be anyone else who could tear the realms apart like she had. This wasn't some simple magic one could just learn on a whim. It wasn't a basic fireball or healing spell anyone could do.

"We're talking about splitting realms h...

[MGE] Chapter 31 – Being a Monster

Liora learned that satyrs were surprisingly nimble and resilient creatures. Despite being hit by a fully powered Air Dive, the satyr survived. It looked like Liora had just lightly Pecked it, rather than launched a fully powered murder strike. The satyr looked pissed, bleating at her while scratc...

[MGE] Chapter 30 – Satyr Lake

Despite Liora's conviction that she would make it to the Satyr Lake the same night, after everything that happened, she felt mentally exhausted. She flew along the river for some time to put distance between herself and Sunvale. The further away she got, the livelier the place seemed to get. Plan...

[ToM] Chapter 108 – Destroyer of Realms

Melina had a very long night after the day's events. There was a lot of information to digest, and she wasn't even sure where to begin. Outside the bakery, she heard the distant chatter and cheer coming from the festival. Apparently, once the Quake Mammoth was gone, the Duke himself went and reas...

[MGE] Chapter 29 – Goodbye, Sunvale

You stupid, thieving, little piece of—

Renir cursed Liora out while she concentrated on flying away as fast as possible. She didn't dare to look behind herself, instead letting the gravity pull her down. The winds threw her to and fro, but she didn't resist themâ...

[MGE] Chapter 28 – Artifact

"You want my help?" Liora asked in disbelief, looking at the astounding beast in front of her. It was standing in the toxic miasma without so much as flinching. It was huge, muscles bulging underneath the fur, while the snake tail flicked in and out of sight. Surely, this creature didn't need Lio...

[ToM] Chapter 107 – Poison

Alistair stared in disbelief at the monstrosity in front of him. He had thought that the cragjaw drake was huge. It had been five times the size of Sienna. When he heard the tremors shaking the town, he had expected to see another drake like that. An angry sibling or parent coming to avenge the c...

[MGE] Chapter 27 – Beast in the Mist

Flying up the mountain felt longer than usual this time. Perhaps it was because the peak was rather high. Perhaps it was because the winds were particularly strong that night. But Liora suspected it was because she knew that this was the last time she'd be flying up here.

This place doe...
