After Leowynn and I took a moment to adjust to our new abilities, I opened another mirror portal. This time, it was taking us directly to the Sky Citadel. I felt no need to make any grand announcement about my new status. Instead, it would become obvious over time to those who paid attention, so there was no need to make a fuss. Once I had returned to the world, I felt something within my mind subtly change. Intangible connections forming between me and countless places within not only Earth, but the…

With a small sigh, I got up from the bed, glancing over my achievements as I called Leowynn back to me. Sorry, Leowynn. Hopefully, I won’t have to do stuff like that anymore now. I whispered to her mentally, feeling how she had just gotten to Tsubaki’s room to begin watching her play when I recalled her. It’s fine, father. Leowynn assured me, the golden mist rushing through the door and back into my body. I understand why you want to get stronger. Though… I’m not sure how much stronger you can…

Over the next week, I had continued my private training. There wasn’t much for me to do personally, and I was wanting to wait until I had read more of the books within the library before I took that final step. Thankfully… I did not need to properly study all of the information within the books, and was able to simply skim through them. So long as the knowledge existed in my mind, it would be usable when using my mirror clones. Which meant… even though there were enough books to last a lifetime of…

Once Thelsa had activated the gate, it felt like the next floor had ‘unlocked’ for me. I still couldn’t access the gate, but… my divinity was able to penetrate the layers now. After that, it was a simple matter to open up a portal of my own to step through and meet her on the other side. The twentieth and twenty-first floors looked like the difference between heaven and earth. As soon as I stepped through, I could see Thelsa gritting her teeth as she braced herself against a powerful wind.…

After I had finished observing Lorek, I once again descended, though this time I went towards Fyor instead of the citadel. I was quick to discover that my avatar within the library had been destroyed, and so I immediately created a new one to replace it. Meanwhile, my main body was going for a ‘walk’ of sorts. The area that I had descended to this time was the twentieth floor of Fyor, the giant cave system infested with giant insects, and also the single most dangerous place I was likely to find in…

After a few hours of training, I ascended to the Admin Room once again. The first thing that I did was to spend eighteen hundred points on buying the third level of runes, before passing them off to Ryone, Bihena, and Aurivy. If there was some secret to the runes outside of the language itself, I was sure that the three of them would let me know. But, otherwise, I already had the greatest cheat when it came to this language. Next up… I had to pass a message to Balu. Thankfully, she seemed to be ready…

As I sat in the throne room, focusing, I was made acutely aware of why the Ten Thousand Threads required you to reach the level of a hundred threads before you could proficiently make and control a single clone. The amount of concentration consumed to control an entire second body was no joke, even just with the sensory input. I myself hadn’t hit the level of two hundred threads, so controlling two avatars was too much for me to do casually. In the end, I had to focus purely on controlling the two of…

This time when I left, I had not returned to the Admin Room. Instead, I left directly to Earth, moving to the Sky Citadel with the use of my new plane shifting ability. It was… extremely convenient, since I was able to set the destination for where I wanted to go, so long as I was able to properly picture the area and it was a location in another ‘plane’. But now, with the level limit of Fyor up at six hundred, there should be another outburst of strength in that world. Aside from Dawn, who…

Well, that’s one problem taken care of. I muttered to myself, sitting at my computer desk in the Admin Room. I didn’t want to take any risks jeopardizing the mission, or lose track of what was happening, so I had immediately chosen to ascend to the Admin Room after leaving Thelsa. Now, it was a matter of seeing how the Council reacted to these ‘attacks’ against them. There were a number of possibilities that they could take. First… they may use their influence to try to uncover Thelsa’s real…

Thelsa sat within a small waiting room, her eyes closed as she leaned back on a leather armchair. Her legs were crossed, the right kicking in a soft motion. In the back of her mind, she kept replaying the scene from before, revisiting the image of her new client in her mind. There was obviously more to him than meets the eyes… However, she felt like she had been able to piece together a portion of his identity. Given the level of power that he had shown… she could only think of one group with enough…
