Roy looked at the bald man with the most honest look he could make and said, “I’m certain that I have learned the aura circulation method that you taught me.” “You sure?” Arlo asked again. “Mm-hmm.” Roy voiced out his confirmation. Arlo looked heavenward, feeling as if this world was too unfair to mortals like him. The first part of the Limit Breaker Technique was ridiculously complex. To make it work, you needed to create an endless cycle of aura circulation in the body. It could be…-

Whoosh! A biting cold wind crept into the carriage through the open door and nipped at the faces of the people sitting inside. “Fuck, it’s cold.” Like a priest driving a demon out of a possessed man’s body, the cold wind compelled them to clutch their thick jackets tighter around them. Because it was too draughty and the twins were in obvious discomfort, Amelia closed the carriage’s door. “It will be fine now.” The only path that could be taken to step inside the carriage was…

The Knights running the punishment hall were once soldiers under the Count. They were all hard-headed and valiant men. When they found out that Noah had schemed to kill Roy for no reason, they were disgusted. But their disgust turned to anger against Noah when the fact that Roy was coerced into a duel of honor because his maids and friends were threatened was revealed. That was playing dirty, something a noble, especially a mage, should never do. Targeting someone’s family was considered taboo. It…

Delilah was sitting in the carriage with a thoughtful look on her face. Roy had grown on her. She couldn’t stop thinking about him. ‘Because he had been overpowering and outsmarting every enemy we had met so far, I forgot he is a human just like me and can get hurt, make mistakes, or overlook important facts. I made the mistake of believing he knew everything. I have been a soul herder for years. If I had only stopped to tell him that you must pay a considerable price each time you use your soul…

Just like a God of War, he remained standing with his back straight and his hands overlapping on the hilt of the sword that was stabbed into the ground. His all-mighty gaze swept over the people he had come to cherish more than his life, prompting them to destroy the leftover skeletons to the very last one. Only after the war ended did the people come to check on Ninam. They gasped, seeing him not breathing. He was found to be dead whilst standing. He was a true hero; none could deny…

There was a branch of the merchant association in the County. It was a circular building of a pristine white color, quite showy but pretty old. It was built many years ago, but it was properly maintained over the years, and thus it retained its original shape. It didn’t need to undergo renovation as it was unique the way it was. Many lockers could be found inside. Standing before one of them was Delilah. The idea of storing everything precious in one’s inter-spatial ring has never been to her…

Just like Maya, Aydin was also tempted by the sight of food he had dreamt of eating countless times in the past month, but he had better self-control than his sister, and hence he pulled his eyes away from his master and the food on the table. Aydin looked at Maya with worry. ‘I hope she doesn’t let greed get the best of her and be as calm and patient as me.’ The change in their emotions didn’t escape Roy’s notice. He saw through them and realized what they wanted. “There is too much food…

Arlo was heard saying, “The last thing I want to tell you is that you’re impervious to magical and physical attacks, but not all of them. So relearn to fear death and don’t recklessly charge into your enemies’ attack in your mist form.” “I am not?” Roy gasped. He was taken aback. Every attack on his mist so far has failed to harm him. But now, he was being told otherwise. It was bound to shock him as he realized how lucky he had been to not have encountered such an attack. “You’ll…

Roy was sitting in a chair next to a round table like a sick person. He was surrounded by several people. Delilah was still sitting by the window, leaning against the wall and gazing at the moon. The horrifying thoughts that plagued her when she saw Roy in a coma vanished as soon as he woke up and was diagnosed to be in good shape. He just needed to take the medicine that was ordered by Arlo and was soon to arrive, and he would be fine. Suddenly, a thought struck her. ‘I wouldn’t be fretting over…

Roy looked around in search of a certain someone. The person who had supposedly saved him was nowhere to be seen. Roy’s eyes landed on Julian, and he asked, “Where is he?” Julian answered, “Are you talking about Uncle Arlo? He went out to get medicine for you.” “Why, what’s wrong with me?” “While you were out cold, you developed a high fever. It lowered after he fed you an advanced-grade healing potion. But it’s still there.” Hearing Julian’s words, Roy realized that he was…
