Eole’s eyes lit up in horror. “An archfiend?”
“Yes,” Simon confirmed. “A terrible monster drawing its power from the Goatfish constellation dwells in your people’s Sanctuary, as far as I can tell. It should wake up on the first day of the Pluviose month of 404 After Doom, a little over a year from now.”

The first thing Simon did upon waking up was to open his Inventory.
For a very brief second, his heart lit up with hope upon seeing the stored item icons on his System screen. Princess Satine’s soul gem, his stored ri...

Louis sliced the manatree in two from over a mile away.
The swiftness of the attack was only matched by its absurdity. A paper-thin sword of unfathomable length sliced across the horizon in the blink of an eye, whipping up powerful winds in its wake and cutting through anything unlucky enough to be in its path: clouds, hail, the Halls of the ...

Hello everyone,
As promised a while back, I've commissioned the artist Dinovoila for a family gallery of House Magnos (including a certain cranky lich ancestor and deceased Overlord) and here's the final result! Hope you'll enjoy seeing those characters finally illustrated ;)
For reference in order from left to right:
1) Dassein, the Rider
2) Lauriane, the Alchemist
3) Louis, the Warrior
4) Balzam the Cruel, the Overlord Sr
5) Simon, the Over...

A/N: okay so I tried to get more chapters done before Christmas but... well, it didn't work out with family stuff so I'll stick to the original plan. Tomorrow's chap will be the last of the year and Hundred Reigns will return on January 1st afterwards after a short week-long break.

The Muse’s freedom spelled Whispermire’s demise.
Simon had foreseen that there would be a disaster following her escape from the seal, but he had underestimated its sheer scale. He had anticipated a quake or something conventional, while missing a more insidious possibility.
A dryad was the soul of her manatree, and t...

The center of the board turned into a massive warzone.
Wepwawet watched on as Victoire and the dragon squad engaged Kronos’ summoned monsters in battle, dodging a rain of boney spikes thrown by Primordial Being Valos or destroying them with their elemental breaths.
Insupportable and Glatisant flew straight towards Kronos...

A month and a half passed in relative peace. Simon split his time between Cassandra and his other duties, like a married man dedicating his days to work and his evenings to his wife.
He spent weeks perfecting his spells and experimenting further with his crafting. He assisted Duchar in completing the alchemical fire production and had their p...

The first thought that crossed Simon’s mind was that Cassandra had shifter blood.
It would have made sense, since human-shifter dalliances were unusual but not unheard of, especially in Telluria. However, the sinuous forked tail didn’t belong to any natural animal or creature Simon knew of. Another darker possibility came to mind when taking D...

The princess was sacrificed on schedule on the Autumnal Equinox.
Satine was brought to the altar on schedule, pale and sick, in front of an audience including Duchar, cultists, and an assembly of fiends. She hadn’t said a thing, even as gargoyles chained her up to the stone slab and Simon raised the sacrificial spike. She s...

It had been a costly victory, but a victory nonetheless.
The Paladin’s attack had cost Simon about two-thirds of all his troops, including nearly all of his Class-using monsters and their Crestones. The fairy ring had been permanently disabled to cut off the party’s escape, and Duchar doubted they could repair it at all. Th...

As warned in last chapter, no update today so we'll meet on Tuesday for the next one (I'll also try to align chapter production with RR, so Hundred Reigns will eventually update on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, with Board & Conquest being posted on Saturday).
In the meantime, since we'll be entering the last third or so of the current arc, I'm now presenting you a poll for the reign after this one. All of t...

The moon was full, and everything was in place.

Three mighty ships were assembled against them.
Epona’s group had briefed Wepwawet’s own team in detail about what each of Kronos’ vessels could do. Past Ark Timaeus was weak by itself and unable to move without water, but it continuously summoned 6 ranks worth of Beast, Avian, Reptile, or Bug Type creatures at the end of each ...

“She’s a royal?” Simon asked as Odette gave him a rundown of the current political situation.
“Lady Satine Renais of Magvolia is a cousin of this country’s deposed royal family,” Odette confirmed. “She fled to Valne in exile when Louis defeated the crown-prince in battle and marched onto the capital. She’s been...

The full moon was up, and Simon had finished drawing his circle.
He had spent hours from sunset to midnight tracing a many miles wide circle around the Darkwood with his phantom steed while wearing his Old Man in the Woods disguise, only periodically stopping to etch runes of power into trees to mark his ritual’s boundaries.

The Fourth Incursion was minutes away, and Wepwawet finally finished the mass rank-up of his Champions.

Simon’s phantom steed was quite the disturbing creature.
He had expected a ghostly version of a horse, but while the entity was indeed made of greenish ectoplasm, it took the shape of a frightful equine corpse. A moldy hide stretched over bones exposed through rotten holes, and two unholy flames burned within its skull-face’s eye sockets. ...

There were five creatures in the imperial bestiary that troops were allowed to flee from on sight: archfiends, dragons, dryads, liches, and Eidolons.

The one silver lining about this disaster was that Epona’s group had fought tooth and nail to the bitter end, so they had seen most of Kronos’ deck and identified his core strategy.

He was still a living man in his dream, with pale skin and blonde hair framing three grey, red-rimmed eyes. His shaking hands gripped Simon’s clothes with immense dread.

Simon stared at the crystal ball sitting on Cassandra’s table with wonder.

“Chaos Wave.”
Darkness rippled from within Simon’s palm before erupting out in a burst of purple energy. The wave reverberated across the air in a conic shape and pulverized the elven statue in front of him in a single violent impact. Its pile of debris joined the four others that had preceded it.
