Chapter. 116: Important News
The forest, the mountain, the air; everything was burning. He had shown me his skills multiple times, though he had refused to show me his last skill due to the fact it could only attack people. But everything else was shown multiple times before finally; I had enough.
“Well… hope that was… helpful…” Regis’karr said, between breaths.
“It was. Thank you.”
I didn’t know how sincere my voice sounded, but he...

Chapter. 115: Display of Knowledge
Meika gulped, confused and shocked at what Faral had just said. She wasn’t even sure if she had heard right. She looked down only to realize she was slightly shaking.
“You are… joking right?” she asked.
“Do I seem like the type of person to make jokes?” Faral asked.
Meika let out a breath, the answer very much clear in her mind.
“No…”
Her mentor nodded. “I understand this trial seems ...

Chapter. 114: Of Great Importance
The Hero of Spirits stared down with wide eyes.
A spear of ice protruded out from his chest. A sharp pain spread through his body as he coughed up the blood building up in his throat. His— heart had been stabbed right through. It was… How? That was the only thing in his mind as his vision grew dizzy.
He raised his head only to see the Dragon of Flames looking at him with the same kind of surprise. It wasn’t a premed...

Chapter. 113: Herald of Crimson
The Hero of Spirits spat blood as the world burned around him.
He couldn’t believe it.
Crackling echoed in his ears, the wooden foundations of the grand house turned to cinder; the red wool and furniture; even the marble was melted by the ravaging flames. They were hot. Extremely so. Sweat trailed down his forehead as he felt a heat rising within his chest. It was as if he wanted to cough, but more so curse— shout in ...

Chapter. 112: Hermit, Dragon, and Investigator
Regis’karr had woken up that day and chosen violence.
Not literally, but figuratively. He had decided that he had enough of not doing anything. He didn’t actually enjoy exploring Vaelith, especially after he’d still get recognized even after changing his clothes. It was all annoying.
Regis’karr wanted to be of use, he wanted to help Arc. While his knowledge was extremely outdated, he had managed to gat...

Chapter. 111: Flesh of Dragons
Meika trembled as she stared at the chunk of flesh within Arc’s hands. It seemed to even be freezing from her touch. Was she seriously expected to eat that thing…? Meika hesitated for a moment but as she looked up, she saw the Heroine of Frost’s cold eyes and immediately realized she was serious.
Meika took a deep breath and stepped forward, grabbing the frosty flesh off the woman’s hand. She was shaking— she really di...

Chapter. 110: Draconic Troubles (2)
The Dragon of Space reeled as the vortex closed. Part of his body had been frozen, and now he was in a different space. He was a Grand Dragon, one of the strongest ones there were. But he didn’t understand; he didn’t understand how the Dragon of Bones had been killed just like that, but it had happened. And if he didn’t expect that attack, the Dragon of Space may have even been fatally wounded.
It was ridiculous.

The Dragon of Earth’s vision narrowed as he processed a message from Regis’karr.
Arc was in Vaelith.
The Dragon of Earth didn’t know where Vaelith was, but now he had a destination in mind. He just had to make it there before the Dragon of Nature. While he didn’t know if the Dragon of Nature was aware of the information, it didn’t matter, all that was important was making haste.
And so, he set off in...

I sneezed.
Ceylon turned to me. “Are you alright?”
“Yeah, it’s just…” I trailed off in confusion as I lowered the meat skewer from my hand. “An odd feeling…”
Malz raised her brow. “What is this strange feeling, Arc?”
I frowned. “I don’t know… also I think it’s the first time I sneeze in… years?”
“Is it?” Ceylon raised her brow and Malz just smiled.

Regis’karr’s eyes widened as he cast his skill.
[Cradle of Flames].
In an instant, he was surrounded by a flaming orange dome. It flickered by the attacks of the adventurers as Regis’karr wondered what to do. Killing the adventurers was more trouble than what it was worth— not only that but he’d also be weakening humanity as a whole if he did so.
It was no small amount of S Tier individuals all things c...

Lara was shaking. She couldn’t believe her eyes. She was looking right at the Dragon of Wind. A being she had only seen in books, a being whose existence had been regaled as a kid when she was but a child. And now, such a being was standing there before her.
She didn’t know what faction dragons were allied with.
At least, she didn’t remember anything about them hating humans or the like, but still. As she stared at...

Regis’karr wasn’t even mildly concerned about the prospect of losing. The old man had barely been able to produce an S Tier health potion, and Regis’karr was well aware that it had nothing to do with the quality of the ingredients, but instead it had to do with old man’s skill.
And in his opinion it was a bit of a shame in comparison to the alchemists of old, but well, Regis’karr could surmise that knowledge had been lost so it o...

Lars, the Red Blade. He was an S Tier adventurer, one whose fame made him very much recognizable. Or rather, a better word for him was: infamous. An infamous adventurer that was known for seeking challenges, someone who wouldn’t take no for an answer.
Normally, it would be something worth panicking about, but right now Meika was… panicking for the man. He had challenged the Dragon of Wind herself. A legendary creature, and now Mei...

Regis’karr had been having a lot of free time lately. If he was honest, he felt unneeded around Arc, his position having been replaced by Malz, the Dragon of Shadows. He was at a point where he could consider her a friend, talking in their free time here and there, so he didn’t resent her for replacing him or anything.
Instead, Regis’karr had long thought about his feelings and he had come to a realization. The reason he felt...

The trip was rather uneventful, however the rumors of the Hero of Frost had seemed to reach a new high. Everyone in town seemed to be talking about him, the hero that had saved the city of Ranedale.

The situation was certainly not one I expected. This woman — this noble — was meant to be a guest, but instead she had come representing a hero. The Hero...

Blake couldn’t believe his ears. He was familiar with Arc, the eccentric hero that had deceived him once before through telling the truth. He had been doubtful in the past, and even for weeks after the battle of mount Arlais he had second-guessed the events that took place. What he saw in the forest; the ice that wouldn’t melt; the fact that she herself had ice powers.
And now, everything had been confirmed by me...

Faral was training someone that had been placed under her care. Even though she looked like a normal human to those that watched her; in reality she was the Dragon of Wind. A dragon of legend, a mythical creature whose mere name commanded respect.
However, she didn’t care about any of that at the moment. Her status was irrelevant in the eyes of the person she was currently serving; Arc. But even if her status was relevant...

This time I managed to sleep without worrying about things. I awoke in a tired and weird mood, a solemn one that just focused on the peacefulness of things around me. I felt… weird, but I didn’t let it get to me.
Ceylon on the other hand gave me a weird look, one of concern but one that I decided to not pay any mind to. In the end, I wasn’t going to explain those things to her. Perhaps, she had a right to know of my past, but at the s...

That night things devolved.

Something was brewing and he didn’t know what, his favorite lich had died at the hands of the white-woman. He didn’t see her fight, he didn’t monitor his domain, all because he had been preparing for their impending assault upon his lair.

It was slightly counterproductive to say I wanted to primarily help Ceylon and then immediately agree to killing the necromancer along with Jake and Giselle. But the reason I had agreed was a very simple one.
If I disposed of the necromancer now, then I’d be able to help Ceylon without worries.
And that was why I was going to stick with my decision.
