“Hera, you have a text,” Neria said as the Empress was in the bathroom.
“Is it my dad again?”
“Yep.”
Hera sighed and slowly pulled some scales from the back of her knee. It was embarrassing to have found that out now. It made her feel like she didn’t take a proper shower, which wasn’t the case. She was supposed to be done with shedding, but somehow, she missed this spot, “Just leave it. I’ll talk to him later.”
Neria locked the screen and turne...

Convincing Pops to get the System was much easier than I expected. Honestly, I imagined he would argue he didn’t want to be possibly controlled by something that came from the Eaters. Or that there were too many unknown variables. Or just that he didn’t want to change who he was that way.
In the end, the moment I put out my hand to give him the System, Pops took it. No hesitation, no questions asked, just yes. Part of me should’ve expected that. He would never let me be the ...

Hey everyone, sorry for the delay on this chapter and the couple that will follow. I messed up the scheduling, and to makes matter worse I got down with the Flu. So the last few days were a bit of a haze. I'm posting the three chapters that I missed during those days now.
And for the gold card tier explorers and up, I will try to post another chapter today, but I'm still not 100% to write, head woozy and such so I might only be able to post something tomorrow. <...

“… And so, today we celebrate the brave souls who fought against the humans in order to protect our children. As well as honor those who lost their lives in order to save them,” Sovereign Stofin continued his speech. Now began the long process of giving the medals to each and every single one of the army members who came here. The Harmony Guardians were already on the field, being thanked by the triton ruler, and so was Helena.
Hera was behind the stage with Thalion and Kaela, th...

“I want one double cheese, one double bacon, one eggonator, two single patty burgers, fish and chips with extra garlic butter, a deluxe supreme and a 12 piece chicken nugget. Oh, and a large orange soda, please,” Nereus, the triton Sovereign, told the clerk through the speaker box of the drive through. He brought Hera to one of the most famous fast-food chains in the MAZE, called Room Service. He turned to the Empress, “What about you? My treat.”
“Are you sure?” Hera felt a ...

Hera was by Thalion side, as a request from the commander. Apparently, someone who was part of the Sovereigns PR team reached out to the elf and asked the Ophidianite Empress to be by his side once they disembarked. Thankfully, it didn’t take too long for someone to find Hera after that information was relayed to Thalion.
With the help of Vash, Neria, Skyler, and Helena, the Empress got dressed up. Fling and Roan also assisted by finding some accessories for the crafter to make. If s...

I had to admit, there was a morbid beauty in my work. How I was able to make sure no one would believe a person could do all that. The muscular man had a hole going from his nose to the back of his head, caused by {Compression}. At the same time, the other side of my weapon crashed on the ground, breaking the floor of the wagon and the axis of the back wheels. Thanks to the speed we were moving, the wooden frame splintered, removing any of the actual evidence my staff was res...

“What the actual fuck?” Skyler gasped while looking over the dark ocean on the edge of the ship. It was the middle of the night and she had a very long day.
Vash was by her side, sitting on the ground holding a bottle of wine with his clawed feet, “You know, I used to be good at this. All my friends asked me for help when they struck out. If the person they were interested, wasn’t into them, I always found someone else they liked,” he took a large swig.
Skyler lowered he...

At sunrise, people were woken up by some members of the army. It wasn’t an alarm or anything of the sort. Or at least, not one due to some kind of emergency. The boat that was supposed to take them to the triton capital had arrived, and since the trip from the doorway to the city would take more than a day, the sooner they got there, the sooner they could relax.
Another reason for the rush was the time frame. The ceremony was supposed to happen in two days, and since it would take one...

I stepped back with a smile on my face. The Eater was dead, and I was the one who killed it. It was by no means easy, and my own weapon did nowhere near enough damage to it, but still. A win was a win.
With {Body Regeneration} still running, I took charge of the particles, sending them to the places that hurt the most. My back, which still had is...

Hera ended up spending several hours inside the private room. She did get a couple of messages from Helena or the Harmony Guardians, but she made sure to tell them everything was fine and she just needed time. Part of the reason it took so long for her to leave was her court. She couldn’t watch them while outside her private room. That was a special function of the wall screen there. But more importantly, the guides gave her some ideas about the spell she was trying to make. And Tara was ab...

After ripping out one of the Eater’s legs and screaming, I had a moment to pause. A thick white liquid, similar to milk but somehow emanating a bit of light, spew from both the bisected limb on the ground and the stump on the monster’s body. The attack didn’t make the creature scream. In fact, nothing about its movements made it seem like it even ackn...

Hera was still in her private room, surrounded by the guides. But no one was talking. Not right now. They watched as one by one, the members of the court appeared on the screen in front of them. They were in a unique room. One with various stained glass pictures of weapons. The old members of the court. Hera herself had created this. Since the rest of the court wanted a throne room, she made sure that the members that were no longer around still had their place.
From the point of view ...

“Hera… what exactly are you trying to do here? Because it looks like you are trying to poison everyone, but also make sure they are not poisoned?” Lodi scratched the back of her head.
“No, that’s not right, this is more like a mist. You want to make poison mist? But why are you adding things related to a storm?” Fritz tried to understand what he was seeing.
Hera kept the original idea of the skill to some degree. Using the layout of the palace where her court would say...

“Hera? What’s wrong?” Helena noticed the change in the Empress’ expression.
“I… I… I have to go to my private room,” Hera replied, still shell-shocked.
“Why? Is everything ok?” the mage pressed.
“Yeah, yeah. I just,” she glanced around, noticing people taking out various pots to prepare some food, “It’s my stomach. I need to go,” she recalled her court, which caused whatever they were holding to fall to the ground. Thankfully, it wasn’t anythi...

The very first thing I did when I woke up was jumping to my feet. The possibility that the Eater would reach the cave was still fresh in my mind. Thankfully, that wasn’t the case, and for now, this place was still safe.

During the journey to the Alliance prison, the Harmony Guardians continued to try helping Kimmy and Greg break free of the mind control. Some other specialized healers, mages, and researchers even joined in. Everyone did their best, but so far, Ashley was the only one who was truly free from the hypnotic effect.
There were two main differences between the sisters. First, Ashley was more cynical. Which made her doubt most things that were told to her, no matter the source. Secondly, she ...

As soon as I opened my eyes, things felt different. Colors were brighter, the feeling of the stone beneath my skin was sharper, and. Looking at the blanket, I could see each strand that was woven together to form the piece of warm cloth.

“How is she?” Thalion asked.
Neria, who had just left the brig, was taken aback by the presence of the commander, “Sir! She’s… Ok, I think. If we have healers specialized in mental afflictions, it could be good for them to take a look.”
Kaela rubbed her eyes, “Ok… I’m not trying to accuse anyone, but what the fuck just happened? I asked you all to talk to human and see what you could find out and got a dozen of reports of pained screaming coming from here. We don...

Just as Thalion said, most of the army was going along to take the prisoners to their prison. Unlike what the humans were doing, the Alliance had a proper facility to house them. It was leagues beyond the one prison that Hera discovered. From what Kaela told them, every human would have individual rooms that were on the same level as newly established outposts. It wouldn’t be full of luxury, but it was more than many people back on Earth had.
In addition, the entire facility was const...

It didn’t take long for me to arrive back at the cave along with the remains of the lion. Unfortunately, it was hard to call this a body since everything was torn into pieces. If I could get a bag, I might be able to bring more of the pelt, bones and claws, but complaining wouldn’t do anything.
Once inside, the first order of business was drinking water. A lot of water. I had some with me for the hunt, but that was long gone. After that, the meat was placed on the crate, and I start...

Once the Harmony Guardians left the Crater of the Sky, they were back at the camp where the army rested the previous night. A few people already roamed the tents, most of them were part of the supply lines that didn’t participate in the actual battle. Others were those who were injured or under the effect of powerful debuffs that took them out of commission for long enough to not be worth being on the battlefield.

Only after 10 minutes I stopped running. A mountain lion was the second worst to find in this forest. Well, third. An Eater is always the worst option but they are on a different scale of problem. Still, aside from a bear, there was nothing worse than a mountain lion to be chasing after me. Then again, it wasn’t chasing me, was it?
Glancing back, there was nothing to be seen, only the forest. However, I was far away from my cave now, and in order to get there, I would have to cross pa...

Once the squad of Soldiers of Strength fell, the Alliance was able to push through the rest of the human army without that much trouble. The Daemon bound warriors had used a buff when the fight began to empower the human troops. And once they were defeated, Hera’s Pool of Styx was able to press down even harder on the ones affected by it.
With the lowered attributes, very few people managed to withstand the Alliance assault. Even so, they made sure to go down swinging. Every four peop...

There was a pleasant surprise waiting for me when I woke up. At some point during the night, my level went up from 6 to 7. After some deliberation, the best idea was to increase Mind. Even if my daily life was heavily reliant on moving, the Mind attribute was still sitting at 1. It was hard to tell the benefits of increasing it if I never actually did that. According to the System. Mind ruled over the speed in which thoughts were processed, and the fine control of skills. This could help when...
