With a stab and a crack, she started taking off metal plates and made a way into the interior of the beast’s skull. Although she had boasted of having studied computers, it didn’t mean she was very successful with it. As the daughter of a rich family, she had to admit that she was not too serious about her studies. In addition to that came the fact that this was a fusion of technology and biology she had never heard of before the apocalypse. All kinds of incredible and horrible experiments and…-

As she said it, Holly's steps became quicker and she started running. The two noticed a liberated smile bloom on her face. “Self-destruct? Since when can guild branches do that? How big is the radius?” Mike asked, as Lydia and he easily kept up with her. “Pssht! It's top secret. All branches in far-away places have these as a last resort. That is why those assholes also didn't know. As for the radius... it should be enough to rip a hole through the walls of the th-third and fourth ring, and- and…

---Unclaimed Mountains--- “A giant mechanical owl, huh? In that case, abort the mission. Although it is a shame to give the girl bad news, I doubt there is a big chance that her aunt is still alive, if it is true what that man told you...” Seth's voice rang from the communication orb. They had returned from the Lord’s residence. Back in their accommodation, they immediately shared the bad news with Minas Mar. They also gave a detailed report on the lord, Morranto and their experiences here so…

Seth had recently learned that a comprehensive build-up of experience and knowledge could majorly improve the power of items, even without relying on the inherent rating of the material, he didn't have the time or capacity to do so at the moment. There were still many things he didn't know in smithing and enchantment, that he had yet to learn and comprehend. Skipping this step by using the material rating of special skills to make high-rated items without the foundation was a cheat not many could abuse as…

Seth's insistence paid well. After a cup of tea, the pair of dark elves not only scraped together 30 gold, but 60, asking for two golem knight squads to be sent. The blacksmith was not someone who said no to free money and accepted their payment readily. After all, this was not a down payment, but rent for 60 golem knights for one week. They would still have to pay the price later on. Since he couldn't just squeeze out the full amount and there was nothing more he could do in this place, Seth's next stop…

After a night of excess, Seth struggled to get out of bed. He was tightly bound by the two girls hugging him. The floor was covered in empty bottles of booze. It took quite a lot for them to get drunk... They didn't just drink away the night. The three had talked for a long time and their support helped Seth overcome many of his doubts. He had a hard time remembering what exactly they talked about, but he felt much better and more motivated today. If he was honest with himself, he had felt like he was…

Once again, everyone of note within Minas Mar was sitting in the same room. This time, the Tower Master had asked for presence. It was not often that Seth asked everyone to come to a meeting, so everyone thought it had to be important. Even Simon was invited. The only ones missing were Mike, Lydia, and Ray. Since nobody knew for how much longer they would be gone, they would be informed of the decision later. “I’m glad all of you had the time to come to this spontaneous meeting, but it's not something…

--- Delta, Minas Mar, 2 days later--- “... and so, to take responsibility for the recent incidents, I will step down as temporary chancellor,” he ended his speech. It had actually happened. After the hideous terrorist attacks on Delta's Granaries and the many more failed attempts that would have completely broken their infrastructure, the incompetency of Delta's Leadership had become jarringly obvious. Finally, it peaked in this speech. Ichabot Longpottom and his staff under him were forced to take…

--- Unclaimed Mountains, Morranto--- The party managed to make an appointment with the lord as Ray's coins didn't seem to run out. Despite some heavy bribery, they were still forced to stay in the city of bandits for another two days because that was the earliest date the lord had a free spot. It didn't mean they suffered during their stay. Ray had rented out a whole residence in the second ring for them. Afterward, the saint of Sol'Fiam would often leave over the day and return with groups of…

The one to suffer immediately was Neeco Boos, as he suddenly vanished from his warm and soft bed, where he had slept beside Alison. The tailor appeared in his workshop, only wearing his pair of boxer shorts. The cold floor against his back immediately had him wide awake “KYAA!” A high-pitched screech escaped his throat when woke up in a dark room, and saw a towering dark figure, looming over him. “Neeco, you need to appraise this,” the Tower Master ordered him with manic eyes, holding up the…
