Important: Pause

Hey everyone,

My father was admitted to the hospital yesterday in critical condition for leukemia he has been battling for five years. His health has been deteriorating over the past few months, especially in recent weeks, and the care I’ve been providing is no longer enough.

For the past few days, I haven’t had the strength to write. Depending on how his condition evolves, this may last for some time. Now, I can only hope for a miracle.

For this reason, I decided to pa...

Toes playing in the sand, Priam gazed out at Valaryth’s ocean as he spoke. In turn, he and Esmée recounted their lives. Then the conversation drifted. When the star sank into the sea, it returned to the present.

“You can locate the Terrors?”

“All of them except the ...

Chapter 451: A Girl’s Heart

For his seventh birthday, Priam’s godmother had given him a cat and a dagger. Fortunately for humanity, that irresponsible woman never had children.

After entrusting the animal to a neighbor who would shower it with affection, his father, Alain, allowed Priam to keep the dagger. Like any overly energetic boy, he immediately tested the weapon on tree stumps, paper, fabric—pretty much anything within reach. The experiment...

The day flew by. It always did when you were having fun, and for once Priam was having real fun. Anyone who had ever played a role-playing game could tell there was something addictive about changing one’s appearance: dyeing your skin goblin-green, widening your tongue like a naga’s, sprouting Rhems gills, Fae wings… or growing breasts.

Thankfully, ...

Double post, so make sure to read the 444 before this one.


UPDATE:
This chapter has been revised to better align with Priam’s characterization. I wrote the first version at the end of a sleepless night, and I was not satisfied with it. Such are the vagaries of the genre.

Chapter 444: Hailcyon

“That’s strange,” Seuz murmured.

Busy whispering into the faun’s ear, Hastenash did not respond. Wings crossed, Neitlan’h clenched her teeth, still burning from the humiliation she had just endured. Too proud to leave, too furious to participate, she absently licked a patch of bare, featherless skin while devouring the ice cream Sweet Mama kept churning out. Wild berry flavor.

Wang Lin pressed his lips together. When an Immortal spoke, replying could be dangerous… and ...

This chapter is for last Sunday. The next one, for today. Enjoy!

“Disgusting,” the phoenix matriarch muttered.

“These notifications are exhausting,” her Riusling rival agreed.

“I am talking about his eating habits!”

“Ah.” Hastenash snorted. “You must be joking: fiery butt or not, you’re still a bird. And birds eat worms. Hardly better than eating mantises.”

The phoenix shot her rival a haughty look. “Worms? You mean wyrms, drake.”

Chapter 434: Goodbye Hyshana

read the 433 before.

The rewards were tempting, but Priam had better things to do than comb an entire island. Then an idea sparked. Why should I handle it myself? What would take me years, Esmée could find in five minutes… and the elves in barely more.

As the appeal of delegation bloomed within him, Priam listened to his lingering suspicion. “I appreciate the context, but I fail to unders...

Chapter 433: Goodbye Rohan

Alright, I’ve mapped out the whole arc. Two chapters today, and then I’ll aim for one a day for as long as I can!

Quick note: I reworked the final fight against Léo. From your feedbacks, it just wasn’t epic enough for Kazuki, and the meta chance sacrifice felt underwhelming. That was intentional—to highlight the gap between Priam and Leo—but I didn’t want the Merit to come off as weak.

I’m posting the new version tomorrow, but here’s the gist...

Anyway, here's a massive chapter to finish this arc and Esmée's. Enjoy!

Next arc: Tier 1 preparations, with everything you can imagine, from Body Tempering to the Colosseum, and even ???. We will finish with the Tier up.

It all happened in a blur. First, Priam endured the backlash of losing his meta-chance. The whispers of aether went silent. The world stopped smiling at him. His fate dulled, lost its gleam and sharpness. As the feeling of golden ichor bleeding from his soul became unbearable, the Juggernaut wanted to scream. To force the universe to notice him.
