“What happened?” Arthur thought as he stepped out of his lab. The entire villa was a mess, with broken furniture and books scattered all over the floor. Someone broke in and was looking for something, but how? Arthur had spent lots of time creating the formations around his villa, and even though the city had lots of criminals, it was not to the point of people breaking in without the guards noticing it. Also, this villa was in a rich area of the city, making it safer than the rest of it. “I…

The new realm of strength Arthur achieved proved to be helpful as he reached Slyvian in 2 hours and not days. Some adventurers and mages could only see a shadow passing through them. He did not stop for a single moment, and soon the capital of Slyvian was in his sight. It looked exactly like before, with beautiful buildings, sturdy walls, and a spacious area, home to many elves and humans! One of the things that changed after the initial fall of the Dragon Scale Empire was the friendship among elves and…

They stopped in front of a medium-sized shop with an anvil symbol. It was the weapon shop Deulara had opened up in the capital, and sadly it was not seeing many customers lately. The commerce of normal weapons was not in demand anymore, as most people who looked up to weapons were also adventurers with certain knowledge about magic. Therefore, they would look for magical weapons. Magical weapons were not just enchanted weapons but weapons made of rare materials, which were harder to find and deal with…

The thought of not increasing one’s power was not something Arthur enjoyed. It had been quite some time since the last time he was with his wives, and in his weakened state, the celestial energy that increased his attributes was not working. He sat inside the laboratory area of his villa, practicing the new skill he got from George, the first time he had ever meditated. [Monlog Meditation Technique: A meditation technique from the Giant Clan, derived from the bloodline of the Monlog Giant, a creature…

The moment Sully cut the connection, Arthur could feel the murderous gaze of his wives. He knew his time would be hard after meeting up with them again, but that would have to wait for some time. Arthur had a goal while inside the capital of the dark lands, which was to increase his power as much as possible. Based on the information he got, the maximum level of power mages could achieve there was the seventh circle. After that, the low mana in the region’s atmosphere would be quite hard. For that…

The capital of the dark lands. A place called Khazijar. Arthur did not know the reason behind the name but did not care either. It looked like any other major city, with sturdy walls, many buildings, and a vivid atmosphere of people buying and selling goods. “Look! I told you this place is awesome,” Deulara said, looking at Arthur’s face, which had no expression. For him, it was just like any other city. “Let’s go.” A line of people waited to enter the city. Those who went walking managed…

Right after they left the city, a few merchant carriages were outside, near the gate, preparing to leave. A few people had paid these merchants to use their carriage, sleeping near the crates, making use of it to reach their destination without walking. Also, traveling with that many people was always safer than going alone. Arthur was not thinking of traveling with these merchants, but as he did not have the time to rest, perhaps that would be a good idea. For that reason, he approached the merchant in…

“Fine. Let’s us sworn with blood.” “And what is your name anyway?” “George, you?” “Arthur, wait a second. Your name is George. That is… peculiar.” “Laugh at it, and you will die.” George was still chained but used a mysterious power to make a small cut on his arm, and the blood flew over, standing in mid-air. Arthur did the same with his sword, and George was the first to swear when both blood touched. “I, George, swear not to harm Arthur or those he cares about. I will…

Arthur killed Luvon and the two orcs before gazing at the strange creature in chains. “Who are you?” That was Arthur’s first question; it felt most important to him. “A man, just like you.” “What do you mean?” “What I mean is, I am what you call human.” The first sentence coming from that creature was already shocking but did not make sense to Arthur. “How can you be a human? Look at your appearance?” “Kiddo, do you know about mages?” “I do, yes. I am one…

Arthur sounded mysterious, and even though he said he did not remember how to open the door, that group of adventurers still had the hope he would somehow open it. “Take your time, senior. Let the memories flow,” Michael said. The others praised his attitude, showing respect and giving the older man time to think and remember. After Arthur cast a tier 6 spell with such ease, they did not want to rush things and make him pissed, or else they could as well die in that tunnel, where no one would ever…
