The beautiful lad-Willow gave the most adorable little snicker at her introduction. Glancing at the mirror beside her, Raegis saw that her cheeks were completely red before she turned her attention back to Willow. It felt absolutely wrong to avert her attention from the beautiful lady for even a few seconds.
Raegis stared into Willow’s tear-shaped blue eyes and would have continued to do so for eternity if her hunger hadn’t decided to mak...

It was the question she wanted to know the most. Raegis knew that the lady had promised her revenge, something she had most wanted since she’d been thrown into the Underground with nothing but a little, broken sword to survive. Luckily for her, a little, broken sword was all she needed due to her special ability to manipulate swords.
But, the lady said her ability didn’t just stop at being able to manipulate swords. Her ears perked up, waiting for her response.
“I didn’t f...

Raegis
Raegis woke up with a twitch of her nose. Something smelt nice, but she knew better than to simply rely on her senses fully. Perhaps it was something like poison, or one of those creepy ap-ha-ro-di-siac things her torturers gave her to force her inner wolf out.
She didn’t like it that much when her inner wolf came out. She had a name for the wolf. Fluffy. Fluffy didn’t like the name very much but what could she do? They were basically one and t...

Her little face popped out of my embrace. “Wh-Whash do you shmean?”
“This is a cruel world where innocent, little girls like you suffer simply because you’re weak,” I told her, in a matter-of-factly tone.
She furrowed her eyebrows. “Bu-But I’m shtrong!”
“You are, for your age,” I said, and blinked into a world of auras. She looked surprised, probably from how my eyes were glowing. “With these eyes, I can see the aura of steel thick on you. You must have...

“Guh!” I fell to the floor dramatically. I felt defeated after the bath we had just taken.
Slowly, I looked up at the completely nude, but now clean, little Reagis. With my [Purify] and [Heal], all of her physical wounds had been healed to the point not even a single blemish remained on her milky skin. Her hair was also free of the caked up blood, snot and other dirt that had tarnished her otherwise silky, steel-colored hair. I did my best to clean up her face too to the point anyon...

“Are you okay, little fighter?!”
I held up a hand. “Yeah, yeah, I’m fine.” I massaged my head, still a little dizzy but I managed to calm down before shakily looking at the little girl again, then this time I saw something I couldn’t have before.
A beautiful, gentle soul whose utmost wish was that no one suffered like she did, and it was then I realized why she became the strongest swordswoman in the realms, why exactly she raised her steel.
Even after suffering ...

Even I was surprised to see Illya completely stone-faced in front of someone sobbing in pain. A lot of pain, from the way Dhog’s mouth was frothing. But then, I wasn’t the average viewer and knew that it wasn’t really possible for Illya the Illusionist, or more specifically the receptionist and one of the guardian trio of this Adventurer Society (Branch) to actually hurt an adventurer, unless specifically given permission by the Branch Master.
I looked around the room, but it seem...

Then, everyone was silent, including the two idiots.
“. . .”
“. . .”
“. .What?”
It was Dhog who broke the silence first, with a stupefied look on her face. Even Rufus’s jaw was wide open in disbelief. I could see him trying to see if he had just heard the little receptionist right.
“Listen, you attacked first,” The receptionist said, body completely still, eyes sharpened like a woman of power.
She sighed. “Why do idiots always get assign...

Another question would be why I didn’t just use the flying horse to fight it. Well, while Aegis may be higher in terms of realm of power, the high elf was definitely more experienced in the combat department. But, that’s besides the point since all high elves revered anything their goddess touched so I didn’t have to worry about a show-down between two strong beings.
In the end, without wanting to fight, I only really had one option I could do which did involve the flying...

Eliza smiled. What a glorious day it would be for her beloved kingdom, if they had birthed such a being. But unfortunately, the thought of manipulating the Celestial Hero to make the Kingdom the strongest in the myriad realms was out the window the moment she had signed the contract.
Also, Elm would probably figure out and annihilate the kingdom if she figured out. Something about those cold, dead eyes staring down at you being the last thing you saw before you died made Eliza sweat pro...

The statement made Elm’s eyes twitch, which meant surprised in Elm language as Eliza liked to put it. To the public, all they knew was that the Celestial Hero of old had been birthed when she made her first debut a month ago, killing an evil chromatic, green dragon heavily empowered by a Demon Lord, terrorizing the outskirts of the Kingdom. Oh the parades they had thrown around the Kingdom, and the utter relief the people exclaimed now that their savior had finally descended in these warrin...

“There’s a little girl over there,” Skylar whispered.
“What?” Breona looked at where Skylar was pointing and saw the look on his face. “No.”
“She’s right there.”
“No.”
“She’s seven.”
“. . .No, Skye.”
“Why not? I could sneak in and come back.”
“I said no!” Breona hissed, yanking Skylar back so that she could look him in the eyes. She brought his hands up, showing him how he was shivering from fear. “What’s ...
