"To survive what's coming, how about we temporarily join forces?"
The phrase seemed to have wearied Kazuki. For a proud warrior, asking for an alliance was an admission of weakness.
"What exactly are you proposing?"
Priam had many secrets, and most were not meant for the hoplite to learn. Nevertheless, outright refusal would be foolish. Information was the sinews of war, and Kazuki seemed willing to talk.
"The environment is growing increasingl...

Priam had heard that voice before. [Eidetic Memory] whispered that he had even heard these words before. The hoplite! Spreading his mist and activating his Supremacies, Priam turned around.
Before him stood a man in his thirties. A hoplite, Priam corrected himself. Without his armor, he looked almost human. Yet, no...

Hey! I meant to post this yesterday, but I got a little behind schedule reviewing my notes and planning what to do next.

"My name is Priam Azura. I will be designated as the Champion of humanity by the System after the Reunion."
The vast crowd before him fell into a hushed silence. Despite the distance, Priam's enhanced eyes allowed him to discern the features of each spectator. They numbered over a million, gathered in the square of the Ducal Palace. According t...

Priam pinched his cheek and winced. His body, much like the landscape, was now tangible. The spiritual had merged with the material. Leaning over the pond's surface, Priam was relieved to see his reflection still bound. He wasn't a masochist; just grateful that the Mirror of the Soul hadn't lost its power.
Straightening up, Priam gazed o...

Sphinx roared, drawing from her bloodline. The energized shockwave surged toward her foe. The winged tiger's eardrums burst.
Without granting her adversary a moment to acclimate to a silent world, the young Lord tapped into her gravitational power. A wave of aether manifested from her being, inundating her Domain. Gravity was now under her command.

Mirscella was descending the stairs to the dungeon. A thick door opened automatically, detecting the old lady's presence. Entering the prison proper, Mirscella wondered about the technology used by the System.
She had been able to infiltrate many places in the past. The arrival of biometric scanners of all kinds had changed things, but Mirscella had adapted. She had learned to hack, bypass and deactivate most of these protections. At least th...

The armor's instinct - if one could call trained tendencies one copied memories - worked against it. Most of its opponents died after losing their hearts. The organ often gained in importance during a Tier-up. Of course, some Tier 2s specialized in survival didn't need their hearts.
However, its opponent was a mere Tier 0; the attack should have killed him instantly. Therefore, the armor's limited intelligence was surprised w...

Reward: Choose two skills to merge. Rarity limit: Common or Rare rank.
Priam frowned as he read the reward. He had already fused [Thermal Resistance] with [Heat Resistance] to create [Infantile Phoenix Metabolism]. That was thanks to a Silver Rank Title, but it proved possible without a reward. Maybe not easy, but definitely possible.
However, the first question was: What was the po...

Clarification regarding chapter 96. His new race changes the Tribulation thresholds, but this is not retroactive for Tribulations that have already passed! In other words, he's not going to reverse Tribulations he's already passed!

Priam closed the door to Bechar's office. The rest of their conversation had given the changeling ideas.

At that moment, the wyvern shook its head and hiccupped. Pria...

Priam sat down abruptly on the steps leading to the Ducal Palace. He massaged his temples for a moment, exhausted but happy. He'd done his best. The heavy doors had just closed behind him. Despite being the Lord of New Earth, he couldn't get inside. Well, not without endangering thousands of lives.
The Colosseum and the Hideout were firmly off-limits to him, but not the Palace. Unfortunately, the locusts would only stay away if he didn't en...

Priam had never had a clear choice to make between surviving and saving New Earth. Simply, his actions had gradually led him down the way of survival. A path he now had to follow. He briefly questioned himself. Was it selfish to put his own life and his family’s before others? Perhaps. But Priam understood this was his personality. He was beginning to accept the consequences.
Should he be ashamed? He didn't think he was a monster. A monster would have...
