"Welcome back!" Soph greeted Lone. She was sitting on a bench in the centre of their pavilion's lake while cuddling Kyuubi. She was also experimenting with her barriers, namely, small ones no bigger than an inch that she was spinning on the top of her index finger. Lone smiled at her, thinking the sight was adorable. "Thanks. Anything interesting happen while I was out?" he asked as he carefully picked up Kyuubi's lower half and sat underneath her. The wolf-sized fox didn't resist or seem to care at…-

"Can you summon Kyuubi?" Soph asked as she and Lone appeared in the lounge of their Spirit Pavilion's central pagoda. Lone nodded. "Summon Kyuubi Immortus. How's Breena?" Soph scooped up the big wolf-sized fox who'd appeared at her with some effort and replied, "She's fine. She's still unconscious but her mana organs are working normally. I think she'll wake up tomorrow." "That's good news," Lone said as he reached over and rubbed Kyuubi's chin to which she yawned slightly. "So, things didn't…

Lone had contacted Soph and told her it was safe to return. Once she was back at camp with Hamish and Breena in tow, and shortly following some warm soup had filled her belly, she passed out. The toll of teleporting for three days straight, half of which with an S-ranker prisoner was finally catching up to the short woman. "Poor wee thing's exhausted, eh?" Hamish snickered. "Ah'm gonna catch some beauty sleep anaw." "I guess you'll never be waking up then considering your situation," Lone replied…

Two hours had passed and during that time, Lone and the matriarch hadn't deviated from their path to War Leader Clari's Spirit Pavilion even once. There was simply that many rolling hills, flower fields, and other Spirit Pavilions, between Lone's new home and the home of his attacker. "Man, the clan is huge. No wonder though I suppose when you have a council full of X-ranked elders and an even more powerful group of elders behind that one," Lone commented as he took in the sights of all of the distant…

"A-Are you sure?" Breena asked Mistress Soph. The confident yet playful woman rolled her eyes as she held her hand out, a beautiful green transparent barrier quickly appeared in front of it. "Yes, it's fine. I'm trying to learn Teaching Mastery since Lone can't always help me, but he thinks me and Sophie can teach each other, exploiting the skill. I can explain what's going on with your magic better than anyone else. Uh, probably. So just hit it." Breena's new fire magic spell, Fireball, was one she…

Every remaining skills level up was a resistance, much to Lone's pleasure. He happily took his time savouring each and every level. He didn't know why exactly, but he simply enjoyed getting and improving resistance skills over all other skill type. Perhaps it was because doing so made him less killable. Regardless, he mentally ordered the skills to, as usual, appear by skill groupings in order of first acquired to last. The initial resistance to level up was, unsurprisingly, Water Magic Resistance.…

"We can't possibly admit fault in this case. How many times do I have to say it? I understand your position, Guildmaster Elksworth, and I more than respect it, but it would be a huge blow to our public image to be known as the barbarous clan that allowed our war leader to attack a guest sanctioned by The Elders themselves," Second Elder Denlon reiterated. Lossa hated this. She was the public leader of the clan but she had no real power where it really mattered. The local elders ran everything while…

"Nope, not that. Nope, I made that so I won't learn anything new. Nope. Nope. Maybe?" Soph smiled to herself. Lone was a real goofball when he wanted to be, getting so enamoured by learning, testing, and levelling skills. Some people would see it as a problem but not Soph or Sophie. They both agreed that they - both her and Lone - needed to be much, much stronger. Soph had two goals to that end while Sophie had one. Soph's first goal was to unlock some sort of subskill for her Body Manipulation.…

"I'll, uh, I'll take 60% of the loot now. I need to process this before I can give you the verification for completing the quest," the guide whose name Lone still didn't know said. "Help her, Sarah?" Lone requested, using her fake name, to which the teen nodded. As Breena began pulling things out of her three adventurer's pouches, Lone sat on the grassy ground and asked Soph, "How'd it go? Did it feel any different having so much more MP to mess around with?" "Kinda?" Soph nodded in an uncertain…

Lone, Sophie, and Breena, approached an employee desk. There were no expedited desks for higher strengths like in Golden Pass City but this place was far less lively so that wasn't needed just like in Milindo and the Farwinds. "It's an honour to meet you!" the young Crimson Foxtail woman with one tail who was manning the desk beamed at Lone, her tail wagging furiously all the while. "I mean, your people disappeared a century ago and then you pop out and with nine tails to boot! I'll be writing about…
