The Hundred Reigns 106: The Cocagne Affair (6)
-----
The afternoon training session with Verdis went well, in that Simon spent two hours mopping the floor with him, but the boy had learned a valuable lesson: not rushing in. He had grown a little more cautious when striking Simon and wasted less energy on doomed attempts to get past his guard.
Still, he remained painfully easy to read....

A/N: Heya, taking a plane soon for TPR-related work, so I'm posting today's chapter early since I'll go radio silence for a while. Enjoy.
Otherwise, I've compiled Simon's stats at this moment of the story: 2026-02-12 13:10:02 +0000 UTC View Post
The Hundred Reigns 104: The Cocagne Affair (4)

Simon went to visit Fabliau’s Grand Library the next day.
It took boarding a clockwork-powered, smallboat-shaped golem with wings to travel from the royal castle to the city below, an experience he found rather pleasant.
The library itself was integrated into the country’s senate building, a massive, grandiose ...

The next day after his arrival, Simon was invited to a private ‘summoning session’ with Norbelle and Queen Remedia in the aptly named Nest of the Phoenix; the very place where Cocagne’s eidolon protector dwelled.
“It’s a good sign, I suppose?” Simon asked his sister as they walked up the stairs leading to the castle’s r...

“So your grand plan to take over the Queendom…” Simon shuddered, “Is to pimp me out?”
“Pimp out?” Norbelle raised an eyebrow. “Who said anything about you getting paid for your good work?”
Simon resisted the urge to facepalm. “That cannot possibly be your plan…”
“My ideal plan would b...

“–considering the key strategic necessity of binding Cocagne to our cause in the pursuit of House Magnos’ worldwide dominion, it is my will that my bastard son Simon be put to use on the matter should this campaign remain incomplete at the moment of my demise,” the Keeper read out loud. “He shall be sent there with an appropriate...

The black comet was the Overlord Crestone.
A small part of Simon had always suspected the truth since Asterion warned him that he, Mardok, and all the other Zodiac Fiends were shards of it shaped by mortal fears. Lauriane had warned him that she could never find a miasma crystal of sufficient potency to create Overlord Vassal Cl...

Mastemo took the news about as well as expected.
“Cubirah and Barbas, both slain?” His hands tightly gripped his chair’s armrests, the noise echoing in his office. “Beatrice and Silence, gone?”
Simon nodded grimly. He had used his teleportation gem to return back to the Lighthouse with both the sealed crystal and his fellow T...

The Zodiac Fiend of the Scales emerged from its prison in a wave of power.
The elven pillars surrounding its icy tomb shattered all at once, crumbling with the seal. A cloud of miasma surrounded the platform like a raging storm of darkness, entrapping everyone inside. Simon sensed a shift in the air akin to a Dungeon taking form in reality.&nb...
