Fuck. That was the only thought inside Amber’s head as she heard the growl of the two deformed beings in front of her. She was in dire straits, she had no Essence to speak of available, and she was still suffering from the effects of the poison inside her body. While the regeneration from Recovery of Curses was still in place for another ten minutes or so, and she still had its second use, she was still in a very bad position....

A/N: Sorry for the late chapters, these two were particularly hard to write. Also there are some minor dialogue retcons I intend to do of earlier chapters- they are very minor just some information added- I'll explain them in a later chapter.

Amber wanted to feel deceived, but at the same time Frei had very much readily offered to deal with things; in fact, the only reason for this situation was because her new not-particularly-trust-worthy companion genuinely believed that this was something she wanted. And to some extent, the appeal of facing a monster with these conditions was very much there, and if spoken to properly beforehan...

Amber stared at the smiling elf, her bleached orange hair hanging and her silver eyes were curled following her smile. Yet it almost felt as if she was the devil herself, and that was because Frei, the elf before Amber, was level 300 and a member of the Arcane Council.
Finally, after staring at the peach fuzz-haired woman for a moment, Amber finally regained her bearings.
“Why would you— no.” Amber shook her head. ...

There was a brief silence as her elven companion processed the news she had given him.
“Are you sure?” he finally asked, working his jaw.
“Yeah, and he is level 300. That’s what Remmel says anyway,” Amber said, frowning.
She offered the paper in her hand, which Asil took in a haste, swiping it off her. The white-haired elf grabbed it and quickly read it before gritting his teeth.

And a month passed since I learned the way to get to Ill’hine…

Amber looked down at the dagger as his words hung in the air. There was no bloodlust or ill intent coming from him, but his weapon still remained looming over her chest. Sure it wasn’t pointing at her but it was certainly there.
“So?” the assassin prodded.
Amber closed her eyes. The man was at the very least, level 265, which made him even stronger than the king of this kingdom given she could at least see that the king ...

A deafening silence befell the meeting room after two figures manifested, and it only made sense, because they were Primordial Spirits.
What was a Primordial Spirit?
Well, to put it simply, they were the gods of Vir, the true rulers that changed and reshaped the world. All mighty and all powerful. Most humans knew of them through rumors and gossip, through legends and myths; they were targets of worship, targets of zealotry, a...

Amber was shocked— normally, such news shouldn’t have shocked her, but this time around after having just dealt with the Guild, she didn’t expect anything else to happen. But clearly, she was very wrong.
For a moment she wondered what was the catalyst for all of this, but that thought vanished as soon as it came. This most definitely had to do with her actions against the nobles in general and what had happened with Aveline. But sti...

Amber continued on making her way through the dungeon white accompanied with Velda and Deer. It was a rather calm and leisurely experience, it had screeches, explosions of blood, and harrowing darkness. There was a bit of unpleasant pain from the constant cuts occurring on her arm, but it wasn’t too much problem.
“You really are durable…” Velda said evidently tired.
Amber turned to the mage. “I’ve been thinking but can y...

The adventurers had taken great displeasure at her attempt because according to them she was trying to steal their job just like the foreign adventurers, that and coupled with the receptionist reasoning that she had absolutely no way to track some of those gathering requests, made Amber only take five quests or so.

Asil looked out of the window, he was in the second floor of a human manor belonging to none other than one of Amber’s closest friends. A very important noble called Liz Starkell, whom he had gotten briefly acquainted to, and while the blonde woman seemed interested in talking with him, he didn’t.
Instead, he had chosen to tell her that they’d talk tomorrow and that he was tired of the long travels — which was partially true, but he ...

Baron Renard thought he knew a fool when he saw one, but today he was disappointed. He had thought that the ‘Great Hero of Cytel’ was smart, that she was someone who had an eye for success — she was a hero after all — but he had been wrong. Painfully and deeply wrong.

Amber explained what Liz had told her to the duke and to the princess. And upon inquiring about it, Amber found that— just like on Earth— the nobles were supposed to keep documents on the taxes of the region, so that was what she planned to collect. That said, there also seemed to be a lot of nobles for just four cities, which surprised Amber.
Once that conversation ended, Aurelia was the first one to speak, laughing.

Amber looked as there was some silence in the room, and then the noble man that was the son’s father blinked. His eyes wide in shock.

Amber closed her eyes for the most part, or at least as much as she could. The people on the wyvern had fallen into silence after it had gotten far enough from the Grand City of Torl. And she didn’t blame anyone. She was still processing the scale of what had just happened, it was her first time seeing a war or invasion of any kind after all.

While getting her mana signal had been hard enough, given they had to find the remains of Ranir to do so, there was also finding her— they had chased her all the way to the Great Desert, and when they finally reached her, she ran.

Zodos swung his staff, hitting a mage that had dared target him. The weakling fell on the ground, his neck snapped. Ner, on the other hand, was fighting a level 157 Naraka Cerotidae. It was taking awfully long for some reason.

Amber stared at the object within, it was a large greatsword as well, rivaling the size of the Cursewelder. However, that was as far as appearance similarities went, this sword was… moving. It had tendrils coming out of its spine, and aside from its sharp edge it had a black mass covering the rest of the blade. One that seemed to almost be pulsating as if it were alive.
But that wasn’t the thing that shocked her the most, but rathe...

Almost as if it was ready to explode— no, it was basically ready. And she had a vague idea on how to advance it, and while she entertai...
