Thus, she wrapped up discussio...

A dozen different emotions vied inside Elise as she watched the Sorceress herself descend the stairs with the obvious intent to interrogate her. The Sorceress. The Slayer of Seven Cataclysms. The S...

Elise was no stranger to serving unpleasant men and women, but the past month had been distasteful even by her standards.
She had considered breaking her contract immediately after the ...

Unsurprisingly, Vivi found Rafael at the headquarters of the Adventurer’s Guild. If not for the fact that the demon clearly thrived under hectic conditions, she’d have felt guilty for how the m...

Once Vivi was sure that the crisis at Crestwood had come to an end and that she and the other Titled were no longer needed, she set off with Eshara and Hollis. With her flight and acceleration spel...

The great, interminable abyss of space hurled Saffra out into the open air, and she recovered her footing with only a slight teetering back and forth.
Still not a fan of that, ...

In a quick overview, Vivi detailed the Codex’s capabilities and how it might allow Hollis to heal the remaining infected. She also presented a [Phoenix Blood Elixir] and told them it would make a...

Rather than heading straight for Hollis, Vivi first [Blinked] around the cave system and found the townsfolk-turned-monsters, which Eshara’s team had restrained in various locations. Doing so gav...

Eshara’s hammer slammed to a halt less than six inches from the monster’s skull.
For that matter, everything around her froze. In a blink of an eye, the air had congealed into solid mithr...

Eshara knew she shouldn’t leave Hollis behind with those being the last words they had exchanged. She hadn’t trudged back to their refuge spot only to see if he could aid her with any final def...

Eshara’s spear took the abomination through the mouth. Its roar cut off with a gurgling noise, and she yanked back, pulling a fountain of flesh, blood, and other particulars toward her that she w...

Vivi wasted no time; freezing up had never been a fault of hers.
As soon as she registered the noises echoing from within the building, she scooped herself and Saffra up with a [Blink]....

Mark’s head spun. That the city might send an orichalcum had been a far-fetched dream. The well-known, harsh reality was that the small town of Crestwood might not be important enough to...

Once Mark had put out food and water for the dog, he and his new companions—two adventurers and an infected Granny Shroom—set off down the dirt path headed for Crestwood. The old lady hovered i...

“Miss Agnes!” Mark banged on the door, harder than the first time. “Miss Agnes, can you hear me? Are you all right in there?”
Behind the rickety wooden slab he’d slammed his fist ag...

Vivi suspected this meeting wouldn’t go as smoothly as the previous ones. Not all prior craftsmen of Vanguard had been shining beacons of social grace—Mae came to mind—but all of them wer...

Vivi had little problem tucking away the giant ball of condensed voidglass. With a wave of her staff and a high-tier spatial manipulation spell, the sphere vanished into a portable section of space...

“So, then,” the ash-haired woman in front of Saffra said, her lava-orange eyes narrowing in scrutiny at Lady Vivi. “What game are you playing?”
Saffra’s mentor met the demanding ton...

“The what,” the Sorceress said.
“The, er, dragon, my lady,” Soren repeated, shifting in his seat. “I take it that means you were unaware of the situation?”
“There’s a dr...

These past two weeks had been relentless.
The Peace Day Festival alone would be one of the busiest times of the year for the city guard, let alone the Captain of that guard. And this...

Okay, maybe [Blinking] into an ongoing meeting of Rafael’s had been rude, but at the same time, maybe he shouldn’t have sent her a message about how he’d been attacked. Yes, he’d a...

Zael watched Rafael calmly consider him—and the implication of his statement. Eventually, the Guildmaster shrugged. “Calm? Yes, I suppose I am. I see little point in panicking or rising to obvi...

Zael hadn’t exactly been drowning in options when it came to how he could retaliate, given that he had needed to impale himself on his opponent’s sword to protect Rafael. Even so, when his skul...

When Zael finally stepped off the Convoy and into the fresh late-morning air, he took a deep breath and held it for several long moments.
“Thank the gods,” he said after exhaling. “We...
