Energy Eater - Chapter 53 - Surronded by Ice

"What?" Astrid asked the air. She didn't seem to realize that I was the one responsible for what she was seeing.

"That's what saved my life. It is a tool to make you stronger. Made me strong enough to kill, shit, 3 Eaters. But, you don't have to take it. If you say no, I'll still try to help you and make sure we get out of here in one piece. But if you have this, it's going to help a lot," I replied.

Astrid frowned. Unlike Pops, she didn't rush to accept the System.

"Will I ...

MAZE - Chapter 960 - A new legacy

"What do you mean she had a Legacy? Are you talking about this bitch, or one of those?" Hera pointed to Victoria's corpse, then to the other two Soldiers of Strength that were closer to the rest of the Harmony Guardians.

"That one. The one with the clown makeup. It's on brand now that I know about this," Vash pointed at Victoria.

"What's going on?" Neria asked as the rest of the team approached.

"Vash got a Legacy," Hera replied.

"What?" Skyler and Roan gasped.

Energy Eater - Chapter 52 - Finding Astrid

#### Author's Note ####
Sorry about the delay on this chapter everyone. I had to sleep early for an exam, and that ended up taking the entire day x.x
##################


It was much easier to follow the scream than I expected. It also helped a lot that they were continuously yelling. And not long after, I was able to notice another voice. But the second one was just screaming non stop. Emily took the lead for a while. Even if she was lost, it might not be the first time she w...

MAZE - Chapter 959 - Victorious

Despite the layer of poison mist that was covering the ground, Victoria, the human, continued to spin in her Cyr Wheel. She was seemingly unbothered by the effects of the Shroud of Tartarus. But that didn’t matter. Poisoning her enemies was only one part of the spell. The other part, the most important part, was the buff that would boost all of Hera’s attributes by 30%. The extra 20% increase in damage she would get was just the cherry on top. Before she had a chance to think about that, ...

Energy Eater - Chapter 51 - New Skills

The girl and I walked through the tunnels. I considered running, but we had no idea what could be lurking around the next corner, and the sound of our footsteps might attract something. It quickly became clear, though, that Emily had no idea where we were going. If we kept walking aimlessly, things could go bad fast. I remembered how many times Pops and the hunters told me about people getting lost in caves. According to them, it happened a lot, even in the old world.

If we got lucky, w...

MAZE - Chapter 958 - Another Team

Hera slashed at the human to her right. She spun around, whipping her tail to pull another one's leg, making him fall to the ground. Storm pierced the man's throat in a swift motion, but the Empress was already engaged with another enemy. She dodged a couple of slashes before using the man's chest as a jumping pad so she could tumble backwards and gain some distance. While in the air, the Ophidianite created a simple common venomous dagger and threw to the side, aiming at a woman who was abou...

MAZE - Chapter 957 - War torn room

It took Hera four days to reach the alliance army, and two key factors contributed to her making such a good time. First, thanks to Nimbus, she was able to take a route that most people wouldn’t be able to access. This path, usually reserved for harpies, required a considerable amount of time spent in the air between two mountains. The Sentinel’s incredible speed also played a critical role, allowing them to cover ground in a day that would normally take others two.

The second reaso...

Energy Eater - Chapter 50 - Aranean

“WARM!”  

The monster lunged at me, the hulking figure’s front legs aiming for my face. I ducked under, spinning my staff and slamming it against the creature’s head. Even if it wasn’t at the top of its body, it was still a full head above mine. There was a sickening crunch as the skull twisted to the side, now staying at a 90-degree angle. Yet, that changed nothing.  

The spider creature continued, swiping at me like a bear. Its right leg jabbed forw...

MAZE - Chapter 956 - the Court returns

The first thing Hera did after learning about her Titled Blades' recovery was summon them. She was worried about Nimbus, Lurize, and Livy, and it had been too long since the Empress had been able to talk to them. Not to mention, she still had to thank them for trying to protect her. Hera greeted them with a hug, but after a quick conversation, it was clear they still needed more time to rest. Even if they had spent time in recovery, for them, the last few hours were spent fighting the demon c...

Energy Eater - Chapter 49 - Frosted Gold Dungeon

#### Author's Note #####
Hey everyone! Sorry about the delay on this chapter. I'm trying again to fix my sleep schedule and I'm on that weird phase where I wake up/sleep at really strange hours. But hopefully it works and in the next couple of days I can sleep more than 3 hours a night. That way I can finally catch up on the late chapters.
Thanks for the understanding.

MAZE - Chapter 955 - Dechiper me or I will devour you

Once Vulcan came back from the greenhouse, he was clearly feeling better. And it wasn’t just something purely emotional. Because of his nature as a half-daemon, his face was permanently scarred. His left cheek was mostly gone, forcing him to constantly have his teeth exposed to the air. His right eye, instead of the regular brown that a kangaroo would have, was white with a red iris, and the sclera was a vibrant green that gave him a monstrous look. Even his left ear was mangled. Not by som...

Energy Eater - Chapter 48 - The mine

Astrid and I left the village in a hurry. The quicker we were able to reach the mines, the more likely we were to find the missing teenagers. There was a chance we would meet them on the way, but the odds were not in our favor. It seemed like there were a few different paths they could have taken to the entrance of the mines. But just a few minutes after we left, before we reached any important landmark, snow started to fall from the sky.

"Shit, a snowstorm now?" I grumbled.

"No s...

MAZE - Chapter 954 - a strong seed

As soon as the safety cube was deactivated, Hera rushed out towards Vulcan. She had already sent him all the information about the spell circles that Noxis had told her, but even with her command, it was different than seeing the spell itself. It took very little time for her to replicate the spell. Overloading an area of the circle while keeping it running. Just like when you put too much pressure on a pipe, the machine would continue to work, but steam or water would constantly be coming ou...

MAZE - Chapter 953 - A Guiding hand

While Vulcan was preparing for another set of tests, Hera walked to a different room. She had to make the conga line with her court to make sure they could be this far apart, but it all came for a good reason. Just because they were going to leave in the morning, it didn't mean Hera wanted to give up on helping. And she still had one tool at her disposal that could give them an idea of what to do. Although she would never use those words. After all, the Ophidianite was about to call a guide.<...

Energy Eater - Chapter 47 - A night's rest

A steam shower was better than I expected. There was still something missing, like a good scrubbing, but it was very pleasant. Astrid and I kept talking during the sauna. Although, to be fair, I was the one doing most of the talking. But she seemed appreciative of the conversation. Even in moments when I felt like I was talking to myself, she chimed in with a question or a short reply. I think the reason for her speaking like that was probably her upbringing. From the little she told me, her ...

MAZE - Chapter 952 - Mana Emission

Hera and Helena rushed back to the lab they were using. The Empress didn't call Vulcan just yet because it would be easier for her to move around the facility without him. The kangaroo was able to keep up with her speed, but that wasn't the problem. He struggled a bit to make sharp turns while moving quickly. Even in fights, if he had to follow an enemy or something, he would stop and turn instead of just turning while running.

It didn't take them even five minutes to arrive back at the...

Energy Eater - Chapter 46 - Astrid

Astrid's house was somewhat detached from the rest of the village. We spent a good 10 minutes walking across the nearby forest until we reached her cabin. In all fairness, she could have made better time without me. I was not used to the area or to walking through the snow, at least not as much as I was seeing here. We used to have a thin layer of frost over things during winter, but that was about it. Here, some areas had snow up to my knees.

Once we arrived, Astrid pointed to a room, ...

MAZE - Chapter 951 - Forging Strength

Vulcan was standing in front of a large table filled with various tools and materials. Most of them came from the various parts of the lab, but the alliance members who were already studying the Strength Spirits brought a couple in. In fact, together with Hera and the rest of the court, they had already spent several hours reading through all the data that was present in the lab. Even if the files on the computers were being decrypted, people brought in everything that was still on paper. It ...

Energy Eater - Chapter 45 - Dungeons

Once I arrived inside, the first thing I did was ask to go to the bathroom. No one found that odd since I was a traveler, and they quickly pointed me to an outhouse in the backyard of their three-story tall home. I thanked Francis and his wife before walking outside. But instead, I just moved to a nearby tree and leaned against it.

"Sys, you need to give me a better heads up when you're going to drop something like that. What do you mean, we are near a dungeon? What even is a dungeon?"<...

MAZE - Chapter 950 - the state of the lab

They walked slowly across the lab. It was a strange place that, in many ways, looked more like a wildlife sanctuary than an actual lab. Flowers and oddly placed windows showed a view of the area where the Strength Spirits would live. Even if right now those tunnels and passages only had dirt and small pieces of vegetation. But that was only to a certain point. Every now and then they would cross over an open door, revealing a harrowing experiment room that still had marks of dried blood and t...

MAZE - Chapter 949 - Duskwild Enclave

It was the middle of the afternoon when they finally arrived at the doorway, the one that would take them to the room where the Strength Spirits lived. But before crossing over, Hera summoned Vulcan so they could have a quick conversation.

“We’re not in your old home . The room is just beyond this doorway,” the Empress started, not even giving Forge a chance to speak. “Before we go, I want to talk to you a bit.”

Vulcan nodded. “Ok. Did I do anything wrong?”

Energy Eater - Chapter 44 - Cold Front

Over the course of the next two days, I continued traveling north, making a slight turn to the west once I reached another city. There was no name for it on the map the System saved, but I managed to find an old, rusted sign that read “Harris-” It was clear there was more to the name, but the paint had long faded, leaving only that much to be deciphered. This fitted more with the reality of the world now. Finding anything useful, like back at Lake Ennis, felt like a rare stroke of luck. 2024-10-04 07:58:30 +0000 UTC View Post

Energy Eater - Chapter 43 - Theory of the species

#### Author's Note ####
Man, I really need to learn from Hera. WE DON'T RAISE FLAGS!
Said this chapter was coming in a few hours, and had a power outage. x.x
##################

Things on the road ended up being much less exciting than I expected. For one, no one was chasing after me. That was one of those strange things that made sense but also didn’t. If a random person appeared showing they had superpowers, you’d expect them to be chased down for answers. But at the sam...

MAZE - Chapter 948 - Twin Shores

Without Nimbus, Livy or Lurize, they had to rely on the [Wasp Guards] created by Helena to carry them through the sandstorm. Unfortunately, Vulcan, Crimson, or Viper wouldn't be of much help in a situation like this. They were not big or strong enough to protect the group from the heavy winds. It took them a couple of hours to cover the distance between the pillar where they found the dungeon and the pillar where the doorway was located. They might have made better time, but it was very confu...

MAZE - Chapter 947 - Level 58

The notification wasn’t the only thing inside the box. The Breakthrough Talisman was also there. It was a simple piece of yellow paper with red markings that formed a tribal pattern. Hera quickly triggered her [Inspect] to check if this was what could help them leave the room.

Energy Eater - Chapter 42 - Leaving the trash heap

"Okay, run that by me again. You're arresting me?" I was rubbing the bridge of my nose with one hand. This couldn't be right. I must have heard that wrong. Of course I did. There’s no other explanation.

"That is correct. As the mayor of Fort Ennis, I place you, Sabrina, under arrest," George, the old man with a bald spot, explained.

"Under what charge? What did I do for you to arrest me? I got here yesterday, brought you food, and now you're saying I committed a crime?"

"W...

MAZE - Chapter 946 - Aftermath

Once the Heavenly Demon was killed, one of the Masters walked over to Hera and Helena. Introducing himself as the Ghostly Doctor, he quickly started to heal the pair. Despite being in a dungeon and being healed by someone on level 86, the recovery wasn’t instant. Instead, he only patched them up enough to ensure they were out of danger. Following that, Yulan’s master created a portal for them to reach the outside. This time, he didn’t send them directly to the dungeon's entrance but to ...

MAZE - Chapter 945 - Heavenly Demon

The battle against Xivork, the Bone Warden, ended so quickly that [Awakened Wind Fury] still had more than half of its one-minute duration remaining. Dealing with the skeletons was extremely easy for Hera and her court. Each undead creature wasn’t even strong enough to face a single blade, much less three at once. In addition, their summoner followed the usual convention of being weak and frail. No other junior disciples were killed in the process, but those still standing joined in the bat...

Energy Eater - Chapter 41 - A roof over my head

Getting the corpse of the Crookstrider ended up being a very uneventful affair. I expected to be interrogated over and over about how the fight went down and how the monster ended up dying, but there was none of that. The only thing mentioned was how sturdy the pillar was. After all, despite the Crookstrider slamming its head on it, there were no marks or anything of the sort. At the same time, no one was surprised that headhunting a concrete pillar wasn't enough to cause the creature to blee...

MAZE - Chapter 944 - The last demon cultists

As the fight started, Nimbus held a spear tightly in his hands. His opponent, one of the easiest to identify—the cloud and the sun—would be facing a storm. More specifically, Zultar the Stormbringer. A short but imposing figure dressed in long gray robes with electric blue details. Lightning crackled around his limbs, ready to discharge at his command. The Orc man opened his mouth to speak, but he didn’t have the chance. Nimbus thrusted Sun repeatedly, delivering a quick flurry that for...
