Bang! There was a muffled sound as the egg cracked before shattering. The eggshell shards splashed around before pausing mysteriously as they were sucked back to the thumb-sized entity that crawled out of the host’s mouth. The eggshell shards flew towards it, latching onto its body at various locations, turning into an armour of sorts that protected all its vital locations. Some of them dissolved like water, forming a coating over the forearm of the wings, making them stronger. Chirp! Larna…-

“Is one drop enough?” Larna asked, using a needle to prick her index finger before dropping it on the egg, watching the egg absorb it instantly. “Yep,” Fenn nodded, closing his eyes as he focused on the egg, observing the changes before he nodded, “Alright, it’s done.” He then approached the middle-aged man that he captured the latest, inspecting his body once, “Alright, he is not only healthy but also seems to have the most experience among the group of captives.” He pressed at…

“Please…spare us! If it’s money you want, I can give you more.” A middle-aged man begged desperately when a packet slammed into his face, knocking him unconscious. “Take him captive,” Fenn’s cold voice resounded as the group of men behind him took action, binding up the middle-aged man and the rest of his unconscious comrades. They were part of a caravan that was passing through this forest region when they were jumped by a group of natives, caught into a series of traps that rendered…

The Lan Clan was famous for its power, wielding authority that extended beyond the city it was based. And hailing from its main family line, being a Superior Invoker atop that for years at a stretch, Sturrala had obtained a lot of connections. And among that, she nurtured a team specialised for the needs she desired, having already dispatched a team of experts in the fields of geography, climate, architecture, etc. to the archipelago. Using their help, she had been accumulating information about the…

Kieee! An eagle soared through the skies, speeding along the crops as it opened its beak and swallowed dozens of locusts before curving in the air to arrive at a location beside the farm to spit out the dead locust corpses. The eagle continued to attack the locusts swarming through the acres of farmland, killing them in droves nonstop as it mowed through them. Every flap of its wings slammed into at least a few locusts, swatting them dead. “My Lord! At this rate, the entire harvest would be…

The best way to train one’s mind was to subject themselves to things they are apprehensive about. The eagles were dangerous but didn’t exert the maximum amount of mental pressure on Pilkan. After all, he belonged to the Lan Clan, a Clan that worked with the eagles. So, they offered the least amount of mental pressure on him. But even that, when pushed to the extreme like the situation on the deck of the ship was strenuous enough to exhaust him mentally. But, that wasn’t enough for Compass…

On an island in the southern seas was a ship, on the deck of which sat Compass Carburettor in a meditative pose, ignoring the incessant chirps in his surroundings. The eagles on the island were all over the ship now, perched everywhere there was a vacant spot. Beyond that, a sizeable population were devouring the pile of fishes that were there. Moreover, every hour, another pile would arrive as the eagles relished them. As they no longer needed to hunt for food, the eagles were pretty happy,…

“Do tell.” Duketace nodded. “Are you staying in an expensive hotel?” Yurtale asked. 𝒾𝐧𝘯𝑟e𝒂𝗱. 𝒸o𝙢 “Yeah, in the Gatarakh Clan’s hotel,” Duketace said, watching Yurtale sigh in relief. “If it’s there, then there’s no problem.” Yurtale said, “You only need to invite the representatives of the various auction house to your hotel room and arrange a meeting there. None of the Auction houses are daring enough to stir up trouble on the Gatarakh Clan’s…

Yurtale was actually the head of the Starwing Auction House. But he never revealed himself, always letting the remaining two Ascenders of the Auction House make public appearances. The reason he did this was to keep his identity hidden and mingle among the common populace as an auction enthusiast that was in the field for more than a decade. And he truly maintained that track record religiously, a reason people believed him in the first place. After all, if someone ran a background check against him,…

Duketace and Kowla walked through the street, actually entering the trial auction hosted by the Starwing Auction House, participating in the auction. All along, Kowla expressed her excitement while Duketace stared with a stoic attitude, expressing his dissatisfaction from time to time at the gullible nature of his daughter. In truth, most of this was acting, performing their roles as they had discussed beforehand. Duketace would be the stoic father while Kowla would be the gullible daughter.…
