There were three major known eras; The Era of Sovereign Ascendance, the Age of Umbral Dominion, and the Era of the Shattered World. "The age of the Sovereign Ascendance dictates the age of the emergence of the Four Empires. The Aetheria Empire, Verdant Empire, Aurora Empire, and the Nurs Ancifa Empire." I read the contents of the book out loud. "It marks a relatively recent epoch, spanning only around 700 years." So far, it was stuff that I was already somewhat aware of. "The Age of Umbral…-

72 Era of the Shattered World Chocolate...? Why in the world would I have chocolate? I stared at Delilah and shook my head. ".....I don't." "I see." Delilah nodded her head with her usual impassive expression. However, for some reason, I could tell she was disappointed. Call it intuition. "How may I help you?" I kept my cool and addressed her recently. Surely she didn't come here in the middle of the night to visit me for the sake of it. Looking around the room, Delilah…

The main force within the Empire was the Royal Family. With power over the Knight's Council and the Magic Tower, there was no other force that could rival their might. At least, individually. There was another organization within the Empire which was made up of the collective between all the noble houses. Entrusted with the Empire's administrative matters, the Megrail family not only tolerated their presence but also extended their support to them. Central adopted a democratic approach,…

Woooom— The sirens continued to blare, and footsteps echoed in the distance. I remained seated and stared in the distance. "....I'm tired." I could hardly move my body. Out there, on the opposite side, the guards were probably fighting against the inmates who had escaped. I knew the plan from Professor Bucklam who had told me everything. At least, everything that he knew. Five other people were aware of the plan. They all seemed to belong to the same organization. ....The one that I…

——A few minutes earlier. Leon stared at the inmate in the distance. Every part of his instincts warned him against the man as he felt his back grow cold. "….." Nonetheless, he remained calm. If something was really up, then he couldn't make any rash movements like warning the other guards. 'I should take a look.' Gradually, he moved towards the man. His steps eventually halted a few meters away from the inmate, who raised his head to meet his gaze. "Is there something that I can…

"Akh…! G-get away from me…!" "That's enough!" "Stop struggling...!" Kiera was eventually stopped by the stationed guards who held her back from both sides. "I'm not done yet…! Let go of me. I still haven't beaten him enough!" However, she didn't seem satisfied enough as her body continued to trash. "Hold her back!" "Akh!" "Let go...!" Despite her protests, the guards didn't let go of her and eventually pulled her back from the inmate. Only then did Kiera finally calm…

".....Nothing here." Leon glanced around a few times before nodding and directing his gaze elsewhere. There was nothing out of the ordinary. He was taking his job seriously. Although he technically didn't have to be here considering that he already had a job, he chose to participate.?Mainly because his 'instincts' told him that something was going to happen here. What exactly, he wasn't sure. That was why he was looking around and taking note of everything. It was so that he could detect…

66 Work Experience There wasn't much that I knew about the penitentiary. The location was undisclosed, and only a select few knew the exact coordinates of the place. Some speculated that it was located in the middle of an island while others speculated it was located inside a mountain range. There were a lot of rumors about the place, but nobody knew the real location. Wooom— I came out of the portal feeling a little wobbly. It felt as though my organs had flipped over. Thankfully, nothing came…

65 Work Experience I stared at the quest window in silence. 7%... "It's higher than last time." Not by much, but there was an increase. What did that mean? Why did the percentage increase? Did it signify that the event affected the second calamity more than the first event would've...? "Hm." I frowned and continued to stare at the quest window. The goal seemed pretty simple. Stop the prison escape. At least, that was what I thought. However, thinking about my previous quest, I knew that there was…

64 Work Experience Cleaning up after herself, Aoife headed straight for the Dorset Hall. There were several activities that she had in mind for the festival, but in the end, she settled for the 'Guide' position. Her job was rather simple. All she had to do was guide people around the Academy campuses. It was an important position. One that many coveted. With many important figures attending, the 'Guide' was the role that enabled cadets to interact with them. Of course, Aoife didn't need such a…
