The countdown had begun. In just under fifteen minutes, the summoning ritual would pull a necro Tier 4 into Elysium to aid in the assault against the Fallen. Arnold remained by Seth’s side, both to protect him and to keep a close eye on him. The necromancer hadn't been thrilled about it, but Priam had insisted, arguing that the chances of another assassination were s...

[Identification]
[Charybdis’ descendant - Tier 1 - Prince] - The second ocean’s Terror.
“By the System’s balls…” Priam instinctively recoiled as he read the Terror’s description. A Tier 1 creature that could ascend to the rank of Prince was far more terrifying than a mere Tier 4. Both might wield comparable power, but one was an absolute pr...

The Tribulations faced by the hoplites unfolded like a twisted tapestry, each thread woven with unique trials. Mental combat, summoned foes, navigating labyrinths, and enduring the forces of nature... each challenge was distinct and often paired with secondary support trials—memory erasure, an obligation to defend something, or the restriction of speed above a certain threshold.
Watching them, Priam r...

“A hero is born today,” Taishi said as he approached.
Panting, Kazuki met his ancestor's clear gaze and merely nodded. He had never been an hoplite of many words.
“... May I offer you some advice before our duel?” Taishi asked.
“It would be an honor.” Besides being the first Grandmaster in the history of their civilization, his ancestor had been an except...

Ophis advanced, his expression menacing. "I can feel he has already endured five Tribulations. Depending on its nature, a quadruple Tribulation could destroy this island. There's no way I'm letting that happen."
Priam turned toward the Snahert Chief, feigning ignorance of the implication of his last sentence. "Kazuki will start his Tribulations in another world. We’ll only bring Tribulations back to Elysium if they’re interesting as distra...

After visiting the Gaeserts and the Aelbes, Priam only needed to steal a few secrets from the Snaherts to complete his tour.
Whistling, he strolled into the tribe’s camp, surprised by the silence. Unlike the bustling Gaeserts or the feline Aelbes, the discreet Snaherts exuded a sly aura.
His good mood evaporated, Priam stopped whistling and made his way to Ophis’s place without asking for directions. The straight paths and the growing si...

A wave of aether hit Rohan as he entered the antechamber of the meditation hall. He waited a few seconds for the airlock to saturate with energy before stepping into the room proper.
The wooden walls were covered with glowing runes, capturing and concentrating the aether of Elysium. A dim light illuminated the warrior sitting cross-legged in the center of the room. With eyes closed, the leader of the Aelbes seemed lifeless. ...

The brothel was a sensory overload. Crimson tents half-opened to reveal dim lights and stained sheets. The mingling scents of alcohol, sweat, sex, perfume, and drugs hung thickly in the air, leaving no doubt about what activities were hidden behind thin tent fabrics.
Yet, amidst the faint sounds of pleasure reaching his ears, Priam realized this wasn’t merely a den of debauchery. He hadn’t seen any commerce, transactions, or bartering. It was a plac...

The three rivals stopped at the top of a tree on the edge of a cliff. This landmark overlooked a valley teeming with monsters. The only time Priam had seen so many beings united in fury was during a protest. The French sure knew how to go on a strike.

Helming the rudder, Titus watched the stormy sea beyond the prow. Waves taller than his own sailboat surged toward him. Flexing his Concept, the Rehm parted each crashing wave, making way for his passage. What required no effort for him was arduous for others; one of the reasons he had entrusted his tribe to another leader. Some daring...

Kazuki was frustrated: his Wind Concept was useless. The sentinel was unfazed by the wind blades, and even the strongest gusts barely slowed it down. The hoplite warrior knew his Concept had little chance of aiding him against a mighty enemy, but usually, the breathless zone had some impact. Here, the only advantage the wind provided was reducing air resistance for him.
Annoyed by the ineffectiveness of his Concept, the hoplite grimaced as he blocked a vertical strike. The shockwave rip...

“What did you learn from the fight?” asked Kazuki.
“My blade struggled to pierce its scales,” Gallad reported.
The former instructor nodded, eyes on the shredded corpse of the amphiptere. The winged serpent had ambushed the two hoplites as they explored the city. Knowing his rival had a penchant for slaying draconic creatures, Kazuki had first tried to re...

Valaryth was a world of splendor, both on the surface and beneath the sea. Having grown up near the ocean, Priam admired this force more than he feared it. Sure, the unknown could be terrifying, but it never discouraged him. Once underwater, a new world opened up to him.
Priam felt fortunate that the marine topography was in their favor. The seabed never descended beyond fifty meters, an...

Priam pulled aside the pavilion curtain and stepped inside. He raised an eyebrow at the sight of a dozen tables scattered around the Auction Altar. Each display case held no more than two or three items, all under glass domes. Compared to the overflowing market Ymir had shown during Priam’s first visit, things had certainly changed.

As the first draconic creature closed within twenty meters, Priam sidestepped and placed Promesse in its path. The beast's speed was nearly supersonic, too fast to alter its course and avoid the weapon. [Kinetic Control] froze the spear in place at the moment of impact, sending shivers through Priam’s meridians.

He slowed his pace and signaled to Jasmine, who was watching them from the cliff top, to follow.
