What the title says, chapter or chapters will be up tomorrow... Mostly finished with one. So there will be two tomorrow, then I'll use Sunday to draft some of the climax and update again on monday.
Peace.

The temple of the goddess sat at the very edge of the valley. Thankfully, it was the opposite side to where the demons were scourging. Since the solstice was approaching and with it the awakening ceremony, the withered chapel had been renovated to a degree...

"Mum! Mum!" I shouted at the top of my lungs, even though she was flying right towards me. "Mum! Father—he's fighting an Ashhound out there! You need to—"
Her arms caught me in an embrace before pulling me up to her eye level. "You're fine!" Her...

Sizzling vital essence rushed through my veins, uplifting me, but most significantly, it restored my depleated Will and essence. My exhaustion was largely burned away, the strain buried by the flood of intoxicating power searing through me. ...
2025-08-12 18:22:28 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Sorry about the delay. This had been a bastard chapter to write. I may have used the words, Horrid and Foul, an unhealthy number of times. I'm still very satisfied with how it turned out.

Before I knew it, Father stood before us like a wall, the unsheathed blade ready in his palms.
"Stay behind me," he commanded, and then his figure vanished from our side.
My eyes shifted to follow him, when the very foremost devourer's head ...

It was usually snowy in Karmel Valley during winter, but this year there had hardly been any proper snowfall. If only that had made the weather a little warmer. No, the wind was still bone-chilling, biting through the thick clothes, harass...

The more I practised the Forcefield formation, the greater my amazement grew at the formation engraved in the [Band of Protection]. Its defence was even stronger, almost impenetrable by anyone below the Fabled class. However, what was even m...
2025-08-04 21:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostChapter 81: Strain
The training Father was putting me under not only demanded peak physical performance, but it also drained my mental energy unreasonably. To the point that I felt a noticeable decline in my other tasks, especially when I worked on the Stormguard s...

The merit list was posted the very next day after the written exam ended. To no one's surprise, I claimed the top spot with a score of 12.7 out of 10.
At first, I thought it was a mistake, that it was ridiculous to receive more points...

After a couple of hours of rest, the weakness in my muscles faded away. I planned to continue my weaving practice, implementing the eight additional threads to get accustomed to them. But Mum insisted I take a rest for the remainder of the day. 2025-07-27 18:18:50 +0000 UTC View Post
Chapter 78: Patrician
I lurched up in alarm. My chest heaved in unrest, head too foggy to recognise the shift in my surroundings. Through blurry eyes, I saw the familiar slanted ceiling, wooden beams supporting the roof of my room. I was rested on my bed, feeling a deep-roo...
2025-07-25 22:50:18 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: A bit longer chapter, much to my depression and adding to my sleep deprivation. I wonder why it takes me 2 hours to edit a chapter when all the authors I have talked to barely needed half an hour. I do add 10-20% words, but that shouldn't take me that long... Skill issue, probably...

Despite coming down, I did not cease using the levitation boots in the duel, much to Priam's dismay.
Although I wasn't as good at utilising the boots on the ground as I was in the air, I had improved tremendously under Father's tutelage over ...
2025-07-21 21:28:44 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Arilyn is currently 9 in Earth years, while Eran, Priam being around 10-11... I plan on making them all age two or three years more in the edit, just so that it would make more sense. That is the only drastic change I'll be making. Additionally, there may be a couple of new chapters added so...
2025-07-21 18:56:29 +0000 UTC View PostChapter 73: Influential Artifact
The new piece had similar enchantments to the painting I made for Mum, but instead of Mental Rehabilitation, the painting of the elven woman, Veiled Dream, seemed to confuse the observer within its illusions. Although its power was weak, bar...

“I hope you have recovered well enough to carry out my request,” said Dreamweaver Prisca as she crept into our house.
“I’ve been well for a long time, Magister,” Mum answered. “As for the matter you are worried about, as long as yo...

The fall announced its arrival with an unrelenting ashen storm that lasted for weeks. The institution had to be dismissed. Even the most common folks’ livelihoods were hampered. The biggest dilemma I faced, however, was the inability to use my levita...
2025-07-09 19:02:46 +0000 UTC View PostChapter 70: Bare Minimum Shaping Skill
My daily routine had changed drastically in the last few days. For one thing, flying was taking me around an hour every day—not that I called any of it a waste. On the contrary, I was using it everywhere to save time. Walking to the institution used ...
2025-07-05 21:46:51 +0000 UTC View PostChapter 69: Levitating
My levitation boots were almost complete. It had taken more than a week, and a great deal of help from Mum—mostly because I had no experience in crafting shoes. Their build wasn’t entirely like alloyed combat boots. I had used high-reinforced leat...

The returning flight was much more tame compared to the shocking speed at which Mum had driven us on the way here, allowing us to appreciate the full thrill of flying. Despite flying being one of my long-time goals, a part of me couldn’t wait fo...
2025-07-01 19:56:58 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: The next chapter is a bit longer... I'll probably continue to release in bulk of two or three chapters, unless you guys say otherwise...

As I entered our courtyard, the wagon had already settled in, with a familiar face unloading boxes of materials from it. From the look of it, they seemed to have brought almost double the articles compared to last time, almost enough to last a sea...

Like most skills, the secret to playing the violin becomes heavily evident once I get my groove on it. It was the oldest trick of all. Practice. Master Kaius, with whom I had a couple of musical sessions, said the same thing. There was no alternat...

Arilyn jolted awake with a shrill cry, his body jerking upright. Quickly, Ashlyn dropped to her knees next to him and caught him before he could collapse back.
Her son’s heart pounded, the thumping too loud in her ears. Still ...
2025-04-02 21:36:25 +0000 UTC View PostThe world was really a small place, it seemed, at least for those who had lived long enough.
