Tsaimath

Chapter 1288

The moment the magic keeping the guy I had acquired broke, I reached out with my Blood Magic and struck. I had no desire to have the guy try to escape, fight back or, really, do anything but lie qu...

Chapter 1287

Silently, I appeared behind the first guy to leave the warded area of the Blessed City. Before the guy could notice my presence, or anyone else was able to pick up on it, I placed a hand on his nec...

Chapter 1286

“You know, Mom, some people would call us strange,” Lia quietly remarked, while we looked down into the Blessed City. After the excitement and the various talks of the night, and the reconcilia...

Chapter 1285

It was far too early when a noise pulled me from my slumber. I had no real idea how long I had been asleep; I only knew it hadn’t been long enough. However, living in the Changed world had thorou...

Interlude: Lost in the Dark

• AN: I admit the Chapter didn't go quite the way I had initially intended. Still, I hope you enjoy.

Sometimes, running away wasn’t cowardice. Sometimes, running a...

Chapter 1284

If I had learned one thing during my interactions with Lady Hecate, it was that her lessons would always leave me with a headache. This one was no different, especially as it focused on something I...

Chapter 1283

“Good Morning, my dear Jade,” a familiar voice, far too cheerful for comfort and mixed with the same childlike curiosity I regularly heard from Luna, greeted me. A part of me wanted to turn ove...

Chapter 1282

After my daughter left, I remained seated in the shrine for some time. Exactly how long, I had no idea. I simply sat there, my mind going in circles, questioning every word I had said, wondering ab...

Chapter 1281

A small, cowardly part of me was relieved when I realised that Carnelia wasn’t present in Jademoon Tower when Silva and I got there. It was only a slight reprieve. I had decided that I would tell...

Chapter 1280

• AN: In commemoration of all our four-legged friends, especially those of the canine variety. You truly are men's best friend.

When I pulled my disappearing act, I ha...

Interlude: Times of Confusion

“Hey, gents,” Jack greeted two of his three friends after returning to their little village with Jonas, before adding, “And lady,” with a rogueish smirk, despite knowing that Samantha wasn�...

Chapter 1279

The excitement didn’t end with my accidental blessing of young Jade. Instead, that incident was only one of several that occurred during my visit. Some of them, like the moment when a minor accid...

Chapter 1278

Other than the ward I had noticed earlier, the protections around this community were all physical. Just the wall and people guarding it, enough to repel most enemies they’d have to face. Maybe n...

Chapter 1277

I continued my journey to inform people about the events in the Blessed City until I eventually arrived in an area I hadn’t personally visited but knew about. And, more importantly, I knew the pe...

Chapter 1276

To distract myself from the weirdness happening in the Blessed City, I decided to hunt down a few of the locals. Just telling a couple of people about the events there would probably do additional ...

Chapter 1275

As it turned out, Lorgar was willing to push the punishment as far as it could go.

Over the next two days, I was provided with ample evidence of human, or in this case, centaur, depravity. No...

Chapter 1274

As it so often happened, things didn’t go as I had planned. Not at all.

The original idea and plan Lia and I had hatched had been to slowly increase our efforts in driving the people of the...

Chapter 1273

It was amusing just how visibly taken aback the guy was at the challenge, but he rallied quickly enough to make me think he wasn’t just a waste of space. Still an idiot, that much was fairly obvi...

Chapter 1272

Looking at the few students who had come by, I wasn’t sure if I should be happy or a little disappointed. Somehow, I managed to be both at the same time, which was a fairly odd sensation; however...

Chapter 1271

“Mom, have you considered when you’re going to teach the locals a few lessons?” Luna asked me one morning, when I was just about to head out once more, planning to do exactly that: teach the ...

Chapter 1270

Circumventing the wards came with a few challenges. Both Darkness and Ice Magic didn’t last long within their confines; spells and constructs that would normally last for hours, if not for entire...

Chapter 1269

A part of me was sorely tempted to venture into the so-called Blessed City, as I had learned the local Sunna worshippers called their town. Quite bombastic for a collection of largely wooden buildi...

Interlude: Darkening Days

Waking up, Jeff couldn’t help but shiver, despite the thick blankets he had been wrapped in for the night. His room was freezing, and he knew he’d have to get out of his warm cocoon to light a ...

Chapter 1268

Whistling to myself, I kept looking at the ever-increasing list of tricks I had played on the people of Sunna’s community. I really needed to come up with a better name to call that place, other ...

Chapter 1267

For once, I wasn’t stalking the forest near Jademoon Tower, looking for worshippers of Sunna to torment. Instead, I was sitting in the cave Lia and I had set up near the giants close to the Nexus...

Chapter 1266

After I sat close to the edge of the community’s wards and studied them for about ninety minutes, Lia returned. She was moving quietly enough that I didn’t notice her presence until she was jus...

Chapter 1265

As the night was starting to fully set, my family came together for a nice, early dinner. While the sun wasn’t setting as early here as it had near the Nexus Tower, the longest night was coming, ...

Chapter 1264

With the start of a plan to make serious trouble for the local fanatics, I felt a lot lighter than I had before, as if a burden I hadn’t noticed had been lifted, no longer weighing me down. My ea...

Chapter 1263

If there was one sensation I despised, it was insecurity, especially when it combined with ignorance. Questioning myself about whether to take a specific path, made worse by my lack of information ...

Chapter 1262

The transition between the physical realm and the seemingly endless, grey expanse of Lady Hecate’s domain continued to confound me. Just a few moments earlier, I had closed my eyes after making m...
