Wish upon the Stars chapter 577

The explosion of purple lightning that erupted from me was unlike anything I’d seen from my power before. Specifically, it was VISIBLE to everyone. I could feel through the bond that Callie was witnessing the lightshow in a way she never had, and she was blown away by the dazzling display.

The lightning arced up into the air, smashing into Magister Weston, wrapping around him like a living thing as it bit into his flesh. Roaring in outrage, he began to struggle as the lightning conden...

The whole plan was falling apart. The walls were supposed to be pretty much impossible for the F-rank lions to pass. With the fog up I could see if any of them jumped and swat them back down. The massive difference in power made that trivial.

Now though, the fog was gone, the walls were crumbling, and with the breaking of the Skill I'd officially lost the corrosion effect that had been weakening the things for my troops.

The Magister, meanwhile, stood impassively on a corner of th...

The next morning saw me up on the wall, supervising the placement of mine and Callie’s centuries along with a few spares as they took their places at the openings between the segments. Each of the front lines was equipped with gleaming black spears covered with obvious enchantments, weapons specifically made for killing the Stone Lions.

As predicted, a good chunk of our friends weren’t here. Callie would be on the other side of the walls, tapping into my abilities through our bond t...

We’d had contact with lots of beasts over the time we’d been travelling. Even back on Callus there were quite a few of them, animals like my wolf Jin and the other puppies, or even Randall himself, but we’d seen more powerful beasts since leaving our home planet as well. We were well and truly used to dealing with them at this point, but despite our extensive experience, none of us had ever seen a beast rank up.

Strolling over to the entrance, I called Bethy over and as she made ...

The next seventy eight days flew by. Word of our godslaying must have still been spreading, because I got the occasional burst of stats when I hit a milestone, as did Callie and Abel. I got five hundred each in Might, Fantasy, Vitality, and Perception, bringing me up to thirteen thousand total or so. Callie got a thousand in Might and two thousand in Fantasy and Perception and made the jump to fifteen thousand total, managing to inch her soul up to ninety five percent of blue in the process.<...

The next day, my allotment of wishes for the four months was up. I’d gotten my thirty one days, and Camden had the next seventy eight covered by the contract he’d paid off with our armor. So, after our training for the day, he wished for another seven sections of foundation, and Benny and I got back to work making more bricks as E-ranked carried them over from the pile to stack them up in their wall shape.

Once that was finished for the day, we decided to take some time off and go c...

Jessie’s next bout of wishes actually DID get her to nine thousand, even without additional boosts from renown. I’d actually had ten more days left of wishes to devote rather than a week (I’d had thirty one days total, which in my mind was a month, which I tended to think of as four weeks exactly). That was seven hundred points, added to her existing eight thousand three hundred and eight, bringing her up to nine thousand and eight total points.

Apparently there hadn’t been enou...

Camden seemed shaken after we talked, but I think it was something he’d needed to get off his chest. He’d been a rock since we met him, but running himself ragged trying to prepare had clearly caused some cracks to form. After unburdening himself about Spencer and how afraid he was I could see a weight had been lifted off his shoulders.

“Thanks for listening.” He said quietly. “I’ve never told anyone outside my family that story. After I tried and failed to make them all see...

Two more weeks. Eighty nine days and counting, a bit over tthirteen of them applied directly to Benny, bringing him up over nine thousand and within range of the elixir bump that would get him to E-rank. From his original eight thousand one hundred twenty three, Benny only needed eight hundred seventy seven points. Rounding up, that was eighty eight of the ninety eight wishes I’d used dedicated to his growth.

Eight hundred eighty points put him at nine thousand and three total, with f...

State of grace was pretty much always on in my current armor, and my Danger Sense had tipped me to the incoming rabbit attack before the thing had even moved. These two factors were the only reasons I managed to tackle my sister out of the way before the rabbit slammed into Bethy, who dissolved into a series of hissing cats on the spot.

“Hey.” Snapped the reconstituting vampire from a tree branch overhead as the cats swarmed back together. “That was rude. You’re a nasty bunny. I...

Wish upon the Stars chapter 567

I wanted to celebrate that night, but Callie told me in no uncertain terms that I wasn’t allowed to do anything soul straining for at least the rest of the day. So, since training was done, crafting was over, and I’d already done all of today’s wishes, I decided to relax and take my mind off things by spending some time with my sister.

Since I wanted to get to know her, I’d let her pick exactly what we did, and she’d excitedly dragged me to the library where Anna’s friend hu...

Once we got the enchantments down, Camden hired us a bunch of enchanters to start work. With a whole team we made serious progress day to day, but we started running into problems pretty much immediately. Twenty blocks of Darkstone (got sick of not having a name for it so I started calling it that and it caught on) wasn’t going to get the walls done anywhere close to fast enough.

Because of that, Camden ended up having to let me front load some of my extra wishes. He wanted to give so...

Anyone guess where this one was based on the end of last chapter? I'm excited about this one lol, and it should be the last fable.

“Alright, are you ready?” I asked Adam. He, Callie, and Benny were out near the site of the old bakery with me. Camden had used up all five of his wishes setting the foundation for the wall when we got started building it, and we could now set the bricks without worrying about them sinking into the ground. Once he was done he’d headed back to the manor, though.

The small enchanter nodded. “Go ahead. If you’ve repaired the Skill it should be easy enough to grasp the pattern.”...

I sat down to study my Goetia forms, excited to get them all fixed up, but as I got into it I made an unfortunate discovery.. Unlike the last time I’d made a form, I wasn’t working with partial Skill forms low level enough to be glued together. This time though, my Goetia staff art already existed (albeit folded into my DS Mastery) which meant I had to BREAK those patterns and remake them properly.

Now normally I suspect this wouldn’t have been a problem. Skills were easy come eas...
