The worlds were in an uproar after the successful landing on the second world of Vision Expanse, which was named Legat in honor of those that discovered it. Though, whether or not the world of Legat had any inhabitants of its own or not was still something unknown. What was known, however, was that a grand reward had been given to those who joined the expedition. Of the researchers, there were only three that actually cared to continue playing the game and keep their rewards. For the others, they…-

“Beginning reverse thrust.” A voice spoke up within the throne room of the Sky Citadel, Logain staring at the display screen nervously. His hands gripped the arms of the throne, doing his best not to panic as he heard the automated voice. “Deploying heat shields. For the safety of all passengers, it is advised to remain indoors during reentry.” For the first time in over a week, all members of the expedition were online. Whether they were the researchers, the rich show-offs, or the members of…

The rest of the meeting passed rather uneventfully. I spent a couple of days with Irena, simply wandering around and playing different games, or enjoying different performances. When that was done, I decided to take Ryone for a date of her own, since we had not really done anything together in a while. After Ryone, naturally, came Terra. Though, the two of us mostly just moved between the restaurant and performance areas. Given that Terra was a System Companion, it seemed that she was not allowed to…

With a pained hiss, the amalgam pulled the arrow out of his arm, glaring fiercely towards Kaneda. And then, taking a step back, as if a runner preparing to sprint forward he… vanished. I blinked, staring at the place he had been previously staying. There was no shimmer of light that would indicate a teleport, no flash of magic at all. It was just as if he stepped behind a wall… “So that’s how it is.” Lyra said in an almost playful tone, holding out her right hand. A glittering cloud sprayed…

Even the knights, who were unfamiliar with the method of boosting mystical powers by consuming spiritual energy, could see the heavy drain that the spell had taken on Lyra. However, there was no doubting that it was effective. The fact that we had been able to see which direction the enemies entered the town from was enough to narrow down the search considerably. There was a reason why Aurivy had chosen to make Lyra’s spell like that, after all. Spells capable of directly looking through time like…

It did not take long for us to hear what had happened, thanks to the questioning of the knights. Though, they still did not entirely trust Grace, or Lyra once they figured out that she was the one who had bonded with the dragon. Still, some progress was better than no progress. As we had guessed, there had been a warning sent to the capital just a couple days ago in the form of a feline amalgam. It carried with it a message that was only obtained at the cost of many innocent lives. The message,…

It was hard to find shelter for the night after deciding to rest in the shattered remains of the town. The amalgam that struck here primarily focused on earthquake-like attacks, so there weren’t any buildings left fully intact after its passing. Instead, we managed to find a previously three story building where a section of the second story’s floor was remaining. It wasn’t perfect, but it was shelter. Kaneda volunteered to stay on watch through the night, since I had used most of my energy…

Also! I would like to announce that World Keeper Volume 1 is now available as a Paperback book on Amazon with a new cover art! Creating the spell took nearly the entire time that we were moving towards the next town. The amount of detail required in it was something that was hard to properly understand without experiencing it firsthand. Take the sonic roar for instance. In the memories I received, I had to study sound so that I could envision how various vibrations could cluster together to strike a…

“How was the hunt?” I asked, knowing that I couldn’t see Kaneda carrying anything on her person. However, that did not necessarily mean anything, something which she soon proved true. “It was decent.” As she said that, Genevieve’s shadow seemed to grow in front of Kaneda, and the body of a large boar slowly rose up from it. “I didn’t miss anything, did I?” Just as I was about to answer, there was a distant shockwave that shook the ground around us. Griffith jumped to his feet,…

Once Balu ran off, I felt Irena gently gripping my hand. Looking over, I saw her smiling at me, her wings tucked back behind her. “Well, where would you like to go next?” I asked her, moving to lead her out of the dining area. She shook her head softly. “We have plenty of time. I’m happy going anywhere.” And with that, the ball was back in my court. I closed my eyes, thinking about where I had taken her last time. Mostly, it had just been to eat, and watch a performance. However, I didn’t…
