Igneel released a roar as we flew around the island, banking left and beginning our arc. Through his eyes, I could see those on the ground snap their heads upwards, looking at me as we began to reduce our altitude. We moved to land at the watchtower instead of at the mine so I could get...

I took a bite of the cake, barely able to stop myself from moaning as the cake seemed to melt into my mouth. I had never had something so delicious.
“Yeah, everyone has that reaction the first time they taste Perenelle’s baking. She can’t cook for the life of her but damn it, my wife...

“Perenelle spent all yesterday baking the cake. Nicholas and I have been decorating the place all morning, Harry” Sirius said, adding his own two knuts before plopping me down on the throne.

“What do you have for me now, Porvella?” I asked, stepping into the warehouse set aside for cement manufacturing.
“No good news, my lord. Production continues in line with expectations, but the limestone from the Crete mine is beginning to dry up.” She said.

“Are you scared nephew?” He asked, already saddling his horse. I shrugged. His funeral then.
A few minutes later, we were thundering at each other from opposite ends of the field, and seconds after that, he was on the floor. He had missed with his thrust entirely, and mine had got him...

I stayed there for close to ten minutes before I decoded to seek out the Alchemist myself. Was I being tiny bit impatient? Probably. 10 minutes late wasn’t that late in the grand scheme of things, but when you considered the added context that he was almost never late in all th time that were h...

The day the seventh month died began like any other. I woke up and stretched, preparing myself to head out to begin the day’s first duelling session. After weeks of training— more like months with all the time that we had passed in the time turner, I’d managed to get Nicholas to begin movin...

“Okay, so what are the final numbers?” I asked the gathered room shortly having woken up from my forced nap. Turns out Kurama’s chakra could place a strain on my body if I used too much of it without ny own chakra to balance it out. I knew my compatibility with the nine tails was not as goo...

I woke up in the morning, chugged down the blue potion, ignoring the fact that it tasted like raw eggs and seemed to fight going down my throat for all its life. And I felt myself sharpen instantly. The normal haze that came from just having woken up disappeared almost instantly. It was like I ha...

So that is what I did. I connected the dots and figured it out. It took looking at the whole situation twice and then looking with my byakugan to see the way the seal interacted with my chakra to figure it out.

“Fair enough” I said, not bothering to argue. King-consort title or not, there was just no world where I wouldn’t end up being the one in charge. Whether I had to work against Rhaenyra to get it or not, I just had too much ambition in me to be satisfied as a showpiece adorning Rhaenyra’s ...

“Easily. Input doesn’t mean subject. You seem to be getting them confused. While there is some overlap, they are far from one and the same. The input in a transmutation is in most cases, more than just the subject of the transmutation. In fact you can have a transmutation where the subject of...

I took my dueling stance, expecting Nicholas to say something, anything to begin the duel. Instead, he remained there, not moving an inch. Almost like he was meditating or something.
