Author's note:
Hi everyone! Sorry for the lack of update these last five days. The fever got worse than I thought, it was impossible to focus or to write, I even fainted for the first time in my life during this whole ordeal. It was quite something. But I got through. ...
2024-02-19 17:00:14 +0000 UTC View PostSofia sank into the ground as fast as her ghostly skeletons could carry her, she looked up at the creature which was now just a few meters above her.
This thing’s soul looks gross. It’s not just the body that combined, they actually have souls and they all merged together… Well, n...
2024-02-13 17:00:10 +0000 UTC View PostGo check this shit out, Crowie. Try not to get spotted.
The small crow skeleton jumped up from Sofia’s shoulder and hopped to the entrance of the cave where it landed behind a small rock, unable to fly due to the lack of ambient mana.
You got a mana clump about fifty me...
2024-02-12 17:00:15 +0000 UTC View PostSofia spent the next three hours flying around far above the forest, and tracking down nine more Firebirds, which all had the same mana imprint. She had also tried to absorb the imprints with Pareth’s heart after taking it with her own ,but as she suspected, each imprint could only be taken by ...
2024-02-09 17:00:18 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, what else do we have here?
Sofia first identified a bird in the distance, one of the benefits of her new eye, which allowed her to get a closer look at the birds with the optical zoom and also somehow made it much easier to identify distant objects.

2024-02-08 17:00:14 +0000 UTC View PostHey there!
So, there's a few things to talk about right about now. I'll try to be quick since I don't have much free time.
Why do I not have any time? This ->

2024-02-08 16:23:38 +0000 UTC View Post“I see it!” Astelia told the others. She pointed up and everyone looked in that direction. It took a few seconds for Sofia to find it as well.
“I see it too. Cerberus-beta… Looks just like what Kyle showed us. You see it Michael?”
“My eyes must not be as good as yours, not...
2024-02-07 17:00:16 +0000 UTC View PostSofia’s first reflex was to identify the mana heart.

2024-02-06 17:00:15 +0000 UTC View Post“So,” Kyle placed the mana heart down in the air it floated by itself where he let go of it, “What is a mana heart? In short, this is a bit like a second soul. A part of you which exists in the mana plane more than in the other ones. You do not have one, currently, which gives you the uniqu...

Michael teleported away to get a better view then back in. “It’s… Huh… What kind of creature’s skel...
2024-02-02 17:00:13 +0000 UTC View PostSofia’s attention was captured away from her system windows by a nagging feeling.
A hero?
One of the doors to the common room opened, and a relatively short man dressed in black strolled in, munching on a large piece of bread.

2024-02-01 17:04:01 +0000 UTC View PostSofia looked around, there were empty plains as far as the eyes could see. Wilderness all around, lit by the full moon and nothing else. No traces of civilized life nearby.
She looked down at the person responsible for transportation. “Where is this exactly?”
Astelia was holding a...
2024-01-31 15:33:09 +0000 UTC View Post“So, verdict? It’s a fine piece of magic, isn’t it?”
Erredis rolled the eye between her fingers, observing every nook and cranny. “It’s definitely something, that’s for sure. Clearly you’ve not been wasting your time in that underwater hole of yours. I’ve no idea ...
2024-01-30 16:59:36 +0000 UTC View Post“Another storage item you say… Hmm, I have plenty for sale still, you can buy one at the reception on the way out. Unless…” Richard gave a sideways look to one of the human spare bodies floating in their columns.
“Unless?”
“Heh, I wouldn’t be offering that...
2024-01-29 15:56:38 +0000 UTC View PostRichard sent some mana into the wall and the hidden door popped out of the wall and slid to the side. Sofia looked inside the dimly lit long room; it reminded her of the simulation room in Zephir’s sect, there was weird machinery and large glass columns filled with colorful liquids.

2024-01-26 17:00:21 +0000 UTC View PostThe discussion between Sofia and Richard had gone over the story of finding Saria and back to necromancy. Sofia explained that she needed another skeleton for Pareth, and ended up showing him the ritual circle as well as the description for the skill.
“So why is it that it only works with...
2024-01-25 17:00:10 +0000 UTC View PostSofia started walking through the office. “Thank you, but… Pretending to sleep?”
Richard kept looking into the abyss. “Yes. For myself, I act as if I was going to sleep. I lie down, cut my senses. It’s not real sleep, but it helps with organizing my thoughts, my wants, my memo...
2024-01-24 17:00:15 +0000 UTC View Post“And that’s what Orator said.”
Erredis sighed, “I see. Can’t do anything about it, then. I hoped they would know more but I guess not.”
“What was this fissure thing about, actually?” Sofia asked.
“Phageid.”
“Oh. You wanted to try to prevent the next a...

Needs to be hidden… Oh I could do like that time with the saint headpiece, tie it around my thigh… Yeah. A bone sheath around the leg will do, I can completely close it too so it would be really hard to steal.

Oh, I should have given the earrings to Pareth for Astelia… Well, I’ll give them back when I see her. Grade: test? Item level -500? That’s… Interesting. ...
2024-01-18 16:20:05 +0000 UTC View PostThe shields around Sofia disappeared, and the platform she was on fell toward the bottom of the crater while she was suspended in place by her ability to walk on air, and Pareth had to take refuge in her storage.
So this is how they deal with a rogue level 500.

2024-01-16 17:00:13 +0000 UTC View PostSofia observed the room she was now locked inside of.
This… This might not have been my brightest idea.
The inside of the locked chamber was not full of riches as Sofia had hoped. Instead, there were two giant golems, one on each side of the room, dormant, and a series of s...

Lined up in loose metal casings, stacked up from the floor dozens of meters below to the ceiling dozens of meters above, continuing further as far as the eyes could see, rows and rows of inactive metallic golems.

2024-01-12 17:00:41 +0000 UTC View PostWell. This is definitely a time where escaping to Zangdar seems like a decent idea.
The ring activated, and nothing happened. Sofia was desperately stuck where she was. She sighed and stored the bone plate with Zangdar’s teleportation ritual circle.
I’m sure the ...
2024-01-11 16:59:59 +0000 UTC View PostSofia told Lola to settle down in her room, leaving her with Pareth, while she quickly ran up the stairs back to Astelia’s room while continuing to channel an unlife rune she had started working on when she had gone to wake up Lola. The entire group was quite animated, talking about the competi...

2024-01-09 17:00:20 +0000 UTC View PostThe pink shield in the sky crumbled and Beligenus appeared near the group, looking disheveled and exhausted. “I shall abstain from asking unnecessary questions, this was beautifully done. Let us return-”
“Is he going to be alright?!” Astelia interrupted him, which he took in strides...
2024-01-08 17:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostSofia flew up while Astelia stayed on the ground. Since Sofia had the unlife runes as a safety measure and Astelia did not, she was the one who would act as bait while the Vampire focused on defense.
I see him.
