Sylver had to respect it.

It was creative, simple, and effective.

Even if it did fuck him over, and ruined his plan, he couldn’t help but respect something so brilliant.

They figured out that the shades couldn’t handle pure positive energy, and in mere seconds figured out a way to alter one of their healing spells to fill the area up with ambient positive energy. One mage was healing a dead body, while the other...

Sylver realized that he hadn’t said a word in almost 2 days.

Mostly because he was busy adapting the spell that ended up turning into [Coat Of Carrion]. He could have left it as is. The skill did do all the work for him if he allowed it, but there was room for improvement.

Primarily using the created liquid coating to form a weapon without using something as a base. Sylver knew a...

Red-Eye shut the door behind himself.

The room used to be a house before most of the interior dividing walls had been torn down, leaving only 3 pillars to stop the roof from falling. The floor was made of wood, and Sylver could see half-assed attempts at turning some of the wooden boards over to hide the blood that had soaked into them.

The barrier-creating device was in the very middle of the room, and Sylver could see...

Sylver finished rebuilding his robe and very carefully checked to see if all the connections were still secure. Apart from a slight delay near the shoulder, everything was in working order.

He walked over to where Lorn was hovering over the dead swordsman’s dried-up corpse and Sylver saw that Lorn was drawing something. At least as far as Sylver could tell by the movements of his pencil, Sylver couldn’t see what was a...

“You know you’re going to lose points if it takes you too long to get to the quest, right? Doing things in a timely manner is part of being a high-ranking adventurer,” Lorn repeated, as Sylver continued to walk a few inches above the treetops using the [Bracelet Of The Aurai].

Lorn in turn just floated right next to Sylver, sitting with his legs crossed and reading a book without a c...

Sylver gently placed the last bone rib onto the pile of bones and cartilage and leaned closer to Ciege’s motionless body to make sure there weren’t any shards left inside the bloodless cavity. He did as he had with the previous metallic ribs and applied a thin layer of treated oil onto it, before slowly pushing it inside.

After he finished wiggling it around to get rid of as much trapped air out as possible...

Both Masha and Misha continued to sit right next to their respective corpses and watched the bubbles float off their peeling skin. At the very top of the large glass container, shades scooped away the layer of dead flesh and placed it in a large basin, to be burned at a later date. Sylver used the back of his sleeve to wipe away a small bead of sweat off his eyebrows and added yet another tube into the man’s body.

“What are you doing?” Misha asked. Sylver had spent the last hour wondering if the girl was going to say anything, given how she’d been watching him since the moment he stepped foot into his new workshop.

“Right now, I’m looking for another vein,” Sylver said, as the five shades helping him gently pulled back the recently cut open piece of skin. A sixth one appeared to move the tubes sticking out of the dried-up corp...

Sylver racked his brain to match the faces to names, but even Spring was drawing a blank. Which meant that either Sylver had done a poor job when he created him, so unlikely it was impossible, or that Sylver hadn’t seen these three people before. All three wore matching black cloaks, oddly similar to the one Sylver was currently wearing.

Although they looked cheaper, uglier, and didn’t look like they were liquid, unli...

Sylver wondered just how large Novva looked originally if he had managed to bulk up so much in just a few months. The man looked like a bodybuilder when he had been starved several times over, now he looked like he could stop a sword with his muscles alone. His dark grey cloak-covered suit looked out of place in the lush green forest.

Melo on the other hand had gained weight, a fair amount of it, but not in a good way. His...

(Author's Note: To keep it short, enough not great things happened during this week that it was almost funny. It was like the start of a movie, the main character falls out of bed, steps into dogshit, nearly gets hit by a car, his briefcase breaks open, he gets mugged, and then XYZ comes into his life and makes things better. Not that any of this happened to me, but it felt like the world was out to get me this week.

As Sylver approached the temple gates he considered what he would do if the two guards wearing silver armor were to attack him.

The first obvious solution would be to run away.

Between Spring, the shades, the wolves, and Will, there would be more than enough pure mass of bodies to give Sylver the 2 or so seconds he would need to find a manhole cover and disappear into the sewers.

But then what?

Time flew by.

After Sylver had successfully finished the ritual to move Flesh and Bones into their new bodies, he slept for 2 days straight. The ritual was simple, safe, and boring, just the way anything Sylver prepared properly for was.

The resulting dead Krists were handled by Ron, who apparently sold them to some of his undead clientele as food, and used whatever couldn’t be eaten as fertilizer for his flower garde...

“If more adventurers were as willing to mind their business as you were, I would be out of a job. How was he? Did he eat?” the man with the gold plate asked.

It was the same stern-faced man that had spoken to Sylver back when he had recovered the tags from his first quest involving giants. Even though only a year had passed, the man looked significantly older than he had back then.

He had shaved his short blond hair...

Fire as red as blood engulfed the crowd. The air filled with the screams of children and adults alike. Creatures that couldn’t possibly exist surrounded the area, each one larger and more grotesque than the other, armed with a variety of tools and instruments. They started to sing and dance, and small blasts of multi-colored illusionary fire exploded above and below them to match their singing.

Sylver’s hands made a clickety sound as he flexed his fingers. He closed both into a fist and heard a soft crunch. He leaned back and heard an identical noise coming from his spine. Lastly, he moved his jaw from side to side and stopped himself before it became unhinged.

“Would you mind if I looked through your components bag?” Sylver asked.

They had taken a short break while Sylver recovered, and everyone was curre...

Ch074-Glitter And Gold

Author's Note: Sorry for the long delay, I rewrote this chapter 3 times before I was happy with it, but it's better for a chapter to be late than for it to be bad. I didn't make any announcement about it, because I was certain the chapter was hours away from being released, before I scrapped it and started over. 

Again, very sorry for the delay, I hope you enjoy the chapter.

As Sylver’s hand reached for the ax handle, he felt his stomach rumble in a way he hadn’t experienced in a while. Either his stomach wasn’t agreeing with all the condensed elven bread he’d been eating, or accepting this challenge was a mistake.

“We should skip this one,” Sylver said. He lowered his head and spread his arms out to stop Rosa or the others from approaching the axes.

“Why?” Rosa asked. She mo...

The silence lingered.

On top of that, Sylver wasn’t entirely sure what to even talk about.

They sat down to eat for a few moments, to allow their legs to rest if nothing else. The path had been meandering,...

The notifications stopped showing up after a certain point. Sylver initially assumed there was a distance limitation, but even when he made the harpies let a few through to get closer to him, he still didn’t get a notification for defeating the proto zombies.

And it took him an embarrassingly long while to figure out why.

It was because he had already killed them. As a necromancer, a person who specialize...

Sylver jumped up to sit on top of Sabo, as the hulking giant creature crossed through the barrier that wasn’t a barrier. He didn’t think about it but made a mental note that the darkness-based armor that Sabo was wearing, felt like there was liquid underneath.

But just like with the proto zombies, the crypt wasn’t giving him those precious 3 seconds between the corpse seeing him, and stretching out and getting covered i...

Will very nearly made it to the clouds. Maybe another 10 flaps of his wings and Sylver would have been in the clear. He would be flying high up above the clouds, and completely ignore the raging storm below.

Instead, one of Will’s wings was bent in a direction it was never meant to, and because he was a shade, his entire body burst into a puff of black smoke. Which blew away so quickly that Spring just barely managed to c...

It was the middle of the night by the time Sylver reached the temple of Ra. He had traveled through the rain gutters so as not to be out in the open too much, and gained a new appreciation for the city’s water management system. There were very few instances where he had to cross the road, and even then there were enough cracks in the stone for him to slip through without much effort.

When Sylver came out it was the middle of the night. The sky was cloudy and it looked like it would be raining soon. Tiny beams of moonlight forced their way through the thick clouds and bounced around off the shiny metal lined roofs and tiles.

Sylver wasn’t flying. It was a very minor, but very important distinction. Flying, proper flying, required wings. Everything else was an imitation. At least according to dragons. And giv...
