“My precious little girl. No one will ever be as beautiful as you.” “Really, father?” she giggled with glee, a juvenile sense of pride gushing through her body at the words of her father who seemed to know it all. He was a great warrior she knew. One who protected the world from monsters that spontaneously appeared from rifts carved in space. “Of course! I’ll protect your innocence and beauty for as long as I live. That’s what I’m here for, right?” “Right!” the little girl cheered…

Feinheath was the second largest continent. It fell behind Edagon, with Opungale, which was both a nation and a continent being the third. From an aerial view, taking into account the natural boundaries used to demarcate where one country began and ended, Emeradis was to the north, being the largest out of the three nations in Feinheath. Maqi was to the West and Pelian to the East, both having similar sizes as the overall shape of Feinheath looked like a three leaf clover. The structures of the temples…

All the attention turned to Skullius who was unsure how to respond. Jac gave Skullius the ol’ double brow raise twice with a sly smile plastered to his face. Skullius obviously didn’t know what that meant as he had come from a humble background where everyone didn’t own skin or hair, much less eyebrows so he ignored. The young lady with the curly red tilted her head before walking up to Skullius and standing just short of a meter in front of him. The view of her and her equipment became all the…

“There’s a new mage joining the Association?!” “Look! There he is! The one with the funny face!” “But the way he’s dressed. It doesn’t seem like what a mage would wear.” “Who cares?! Let’s get to him before the others!” The entire hall was torn into a mess as smaller Guilds rushed towards Skullius while the larger ones tried to approach in dignified steps. It didn’t take long for Skullius to be swarmed by a wave of mercenaries that sought to rope him in! He couldn’t…

The burly Evaluation officer patted Skullius’ shoulder with a pride, awaiting his response. “I wanted to be evaluated just like everyone else,” Skullius replied. “Heh! Good, good! That’s the right attitude! I even got the sense that you are quite experienced in battle. Restricting my movements before going in to attack. You’re quite sturdy for an Energy Former too. I must admit, if I wasn’t me, I probably would have been killed while still trying to figure out what was going on. Haha! Now…

The man in the bulky armour raised a brow as he felt Skullius gather up his mana to strengthen his body. A thin layer of it surrounded him with quite the excellent level of distribution as he crookedly stood up with his grin still showing, his eyes gazing intensely at his opponent. “That’s quite the fine mana coat. I’m impressed. But that’s not enough,” the man said as he increased his output of mana which forced Skullius back on his knee. The Discount Human before him was really finding it…

Upon entering into the Associations building, Skullius was blasted with the chatter of many Guilds discussing among themselves, most of them either crowding the board to the left where the requests were pinned or registering their Guilds for taking up a selected request. Once a Guild chose to travel to an area reported to be haunted by beasts or Clusters, they would register to one of the men and women sitting on desks at the ends of the building hall. Once registered, they could leave the city to deal…

A burly man with a portly belly that pressed outwards against the dirty apron he wore emerged from behind the young man. From his appearance, one didn’t even need to guess to know why the last part of his nickname, ‘Gruff’ was relevant. A rough grey beard with hints of ash and soot along with darkened skin with wrinkly textures could be seen on his face while his eyes brimmed with a light blue shade. At this moment, there seemed to be fury building up within him as he looked at his apprentice from…

“Let’s see if its true,” Skullius mumbled to himself after reading about what these Enriching gems could do. “The Binds of Fukal shouldn’t interfere, right?” According to one of the books he read, Skullius learned that Enriching gems boosted constitution. How much they actually boosted depended on where they were extracted from but still… it seemed like the benefits were evident nonetheless. The term ‘absorb’ was used when referring to the how these gems were used and the only way…

The bandaged Skullius walked into ‘Big Bosom Betsy’s’ with a sickly skip in his step, attracting the attention of the ever present champions of food and ale that were chattering endlessly. Most of them laughed at him as he limped while Betsy who was behind the counter as usual gave him a curious gaze. As he was passing by her, going up to his room, she suddenly spoke. “Is the city proving to be a bit too difficult for you, love? Did you get into a brawl with fire or what?” she asked as she saw…
