One of the twins let out an audible sigh of relief as she felt her divine powers returning to her. “Finally…” She muttered under her breath, knowing that their trials had come to an end. While it couldn’t be said that they had received nothing from the experience, the feeling of constantly having to be cautious against outside dangers had left both sisters incredibly tense. “How long were we even in that?” The other asked, seeming to have lost track of time. Although they had eventually left…-

James sat at his desk, his brow furrowed in concentration as he probed the inner workings of the system stone before him. The object gave off a faint shine in response to his energies, but he ignored it. Right now, he was working on how to isolate the system energy within the stone, that way he would be able to develop the suppression field that he had been wanting to create. At the same time, the other members of the research team were tackling the aspect from different angles, each trying to find some…

Keenan kept vigilant the entire way back to the city, even as he reinforced his left arm with his blackened ki. He wasn’t so much worried about Sammy and her mother turning against him, but rather wary about another ambush. After all, it was clear that Sammy’s mother was leagues beyond him in terms of power. If she really wanted to attack him, there was nothing he’d be able to do to stop her either way. “What were those arrows?” He suddenly asked as the gate of the city was in sight. At this…

It had been only a few weeks now since Keenan had obtained the mysterious leaf from Claret, having kept it on his body ever since. Because he did so, however, he was currently in a more wounded state than he had ever found himself in a battle. Claw marks covered one of his arms, blood leaking from the wound as he grit his teeth. In the past, Keenan had always relied on his unreasonable luck to such a degree that he had never been ambushed, nor had he been in a hopeless situation. This was the first time…

The first sister closed her eyes in focus, appraising herself mentally. Moments later, there was a deafening crash, roots yanked through the dome and pulled out to leave little holes. The tree that they had been hiding under had been completely uprooted. Looking through the holes, the twins saw the massive form of a figure whose body was seemingly composed entirely of storm clouds. Its footsteps echoed with a clap of thunder, its hands seeming tipped in small tornados. Natural authority referred to a…

“Let’s test out that new library of yours today.” Terra said with a smile, sitting across from Lifre. Due to the nature of their lessons, they often did not conduct them in the citadel itself. Instead, they had a wide meadow in which they conducted various forms of training. Lifre nodded her head in excitement, eager to see what new stories had filled her newest divine artifact. She stood up from the small chair she had brought with her, and extended her hand to the sky. “Come to me, Library of…

“What are we out here for again?” Accalia asked with a long sigh, leaning against a tree as Keliope and Aurivy stood nearby. The ursa goddess appeared equally confused, while Aurivy was just scanning the nearby meadow with unfocused eyes. “I don’t know.” Keliope shrugged her shoulders. “The shrimp just said she’d let me punch stuff if I came along. Given that she wanted me, I thought that it’d be something interesting.” “Nope.” Aurivy said, eyes still somewhat unfocused, as if she…

Lily let out a long sigh, wiping her forehead as she stood within a dark cave, holding a bucket under one arm. It had taken her longer than expected to find an orichalcum mine that wasn’t being actively watched. However, now that she had found one, she had been able to mine the orichalcum that she needed to meet Scarlet’s requirements. Granted, she was aware now that Scarlet was not simply giving her ‘blessing’. For her purposes, though, there was not much difference in what Lily had to do.…

“Thanks for your work again today.” One chef spoke up to another, offering a deep bow of gratitude. “With the Aurans around, the dinner rush has been really hectic lately.” The other chef merely shook his head with a calm smile, his blond hair still tied back from the work in the kitchen. “It’s fine. Though, didn’t I suggest you stop using the skill system when cooking? It will just make the dishes lose their uniqueness.” The first chef gave a somewhat bitter smile when he heard that.…

Tsubaki’s mind raced at a mile a minute as she felt every death clearly, the pressure increasing on her mind. Tsubaki took a deep breath, steadying herself. She felt as if she understood why Irena had sent her here. Whether or not Irena knew the full situation was another matter entirely. As she wondered that, her nine tails began to shine brighter and brighter, as if to counteract the pain that she felt with every death. Her heart felt as if it were being ripped to shreds, yet her light burned…
