I scrolled down on my menu, finding the reward for the legendary tree. I nodded at the bonuses. The tree gave me about what I expected. The leveling speed meant I might not invest my dungeon cores into the skill anymore. If I trained Force of Nature all the time, then it would climb at a steady rate. The free skill points might be better allocated to my mythical skills instead. Before I checked out my bonuses though, I went back to the other notification. I had no idea what a sovereign…-

Thisbey nodded, “Let’s be precise here. My boys have run the data and done the research. A single gialgathen can destroy a hundred square miles of land over its lifetime.” He leaned back into his chair, letting a hand flop onto his armrest, “Now while I might be a biased source, something has to be done about this mess. Otherwise, every man, woman, and child on Giess will drown in this here filth.” Thisbey’s voice turned sharp as a razor, “And why? For what cause? So that these…

I gave Delilath a bow. She bowed back. As we raised our heads, she snapped her tail towards me. I stomped a foot while condensing my weight. I burrowed downwards, her attack smashing a crater into the arena above my head. I detonated my charged runes, bursting out from the ground. A cloud of white powder surged out with me. Delilath shifted her head, dodging my assault. She snapped her tail at me again, catching me in flight. I crossed my arms, blocking the blow. My camouflage caved in, the gray…

Torix nodded his head, “He is quite resilient.” Tohtella sighed, “Then if you all agree with his plan, I will trust in your competence as a whole.” Torix turned to me, “I will blanket the landing position with darkness. This will prevent us from luring in a horde of angry silvers.” A message popped up in front of me, I grinned, holding down a laugh, “Alright, sounds like a good idea to me.” Tohtella gave us a curt nod, “I’ll organize the necessary medical supplies for…

Inside the walls of the gialgathen’s base, the metal was cleared out. Espens walked barefoot around to several sectors of the camp, their feet bleeding shards of metal. In the center of the field, a pit of sludge bubbled. Espens congregated around this muck. The beginning of a metal matrice appeared beside the pit. Saysha beetles swarmed its surface, expanding it. They feasted on fresh bodies, turning sinews and meat to metal and wires. An enormous pile of eggs squirmed beneath a cove of steel. The…

Tohtella scoffed, “Really? Perhaps you’d like to offer up that evidence then?” I went through a few menus, opening the files from Kessiah. My obelisk played out a three dimensional model of the fight. It showed me off in the distance, duking it out with Ryhstrika. As I landed onto the mountain, Tohtella raised her hand, “That will be more than sufficient. I have a few questions to ask.” I shrugged, “Fire away.” She pointed at the video, “You’re only level 6,000. How’re you…

Jilian fired at me, but I condensed my weight, no longer dispersing it. I sunk into the ground like diving into water. I burrowed at her while charging my mana. Jilian threw a bottle of the toxic, yellow gunk at the arena again. I grabbed it with telekinesis, preventing the container from shattering. I tossed the vial aside. I detonated my runes, giving me a surge of strength. I propelled out of the ground, drop kicking at Jilian. Her blue energy shield shattered. It redistributed the kinetic energy…

Kiki Mosk floated outside of the arena. As he did, the lights went off. The pre-fight hype started, clips of the fighters showing on the teleprompters. Flashy fights with no substance poured out of the screens. I leaned over towards Althea, “This seems more like an exhibition than fighting, don’t you think?” Unlike me, Althea relished in the theatrics. She waved me away, “Just relax a little. The montages are awesome.” After a minute of fireworks and a light show, I yawned. A few minutes…

Caprika walked up, “Ah, Thisbey Thorn, it’s a joy to meet you.” As Caprika walked up, I glared at her. Seconds ago she was annoyed at him. Now she acted like best buddies. Being two-faced didn’t sit well with me, friend or foe alike. I made a mental note of that as the albony offered Thisbey a hug. The gray espen raised a palm to her, “I prefer to keep business associates at a distance if you wouldn’t mind. Deals flow better that way.” Caprika lowered her hands, caught off…

It took a week of twenty-four hour days to grade the papers. It bled into my psyche, the monotony grinding away my will to live. Of course, my willpower helped, keeping me from slowing down or veering off course. As tedious as it was, I learned a decent amount about magical theory and some other skills. Most of them grading related. I kept myself intent on finishing the papers during this time. I ended up finishing them before we reached Yildraza. As I sent the behemoth of a file to Torix, I sprawled…
