US: Chapter 226

The whole stadium went silent. Just a moment ago they saw that overbearing technique of one of the best spear masters in the whole empire. They were ecstatic to witness it in all its glory. This sense of wonder was shattered instantly by the cultivator with white hair. He had just brushed off such an attack with ease, leaving everyone speechless.

“What is this, the Master from the United Element sect has managed to block Chang Yongzheng's glorious approach! How will the old master rea...

Runesmith : Chapter 43 – More smithing.

“You were a blacksmith? But … aren’t you a mage? Why would you, did I get the wrong house?”

Helci was standing in front of Roland and her mouth was moving fast. She had examined the inside of this workshop and was now barraging him with questions. She had picked up this quest as a side job. She was back to doing the transport missions with her old party and taking a safer approach to the whole adventurer life.

This left time for her to pick up part-time work like this. She...

Chapter 225

Zhang Dong and his entourage were finally able to enter the hotel that they were supposed to stay in. The people outside had cleared out and went to the arena to get their tickets.

“Patriarch, aren’t you being too rash? Wasn’t there another way to handle that situation…”

Feng Maling asked with visible concern showed on her face. She had watched the whole thing unfold but it was not her place to speak out in that situation. She was also worried that she might have been to...

Chapter 42 – Hidden trouble and a new yet old workshop.

Two pale crescent moons shone like silvery claws in the night sky. The sky was free of clouds which let everyone see a blanket of bright stars that seemed to stretch into infinity.

A certain person was sitting in a room, the candlelight danced in a gentle wind making the person’s shadow sway. The person looked to be a man in his twenties and he was wearing an exquisite tunic. There were various precious gems sewed into it and the person was also wearing a costly looking necklace.

Chapter 41 – Contract update.

Roland spent the rest of the night in a cold cell. The people in this world apparently didn’t care much about their prisoners. The place he had to be was infested with rats, was cold and uncomfortable. There wasn’t even a bed or a chair to sit on, he had to lean against the wall. Luckily they let him keep his clothes that were thick enough to get him through this chilly night.

He wondered if these guards would be punished if it came to light that he was an actual noble’s son. Ther...

Chapter 40 – Thieves Guild

Edelgard’s thieves guild. It was hidden underground along with all the other unconventional businesses. The only way of reaching it was having a thievery related class. This was mostly considered to be either a thief class or a bandit class.

The first one was your usual pickpocket and someone primed for stealthy operations. The second one was more of a thug, closer to a warrior in stat distribution. The only difference was mostly in some passives while fighting in a less honorable way...

US: Chapter 224

“What is happening? Who offended the Leader from the Silver Spear Sect, do they have a death wish?”

“Don’t they know that he is known to have quite the temper?”

“That young man is done for!”

“But isn’t that also a nascent soul master… but he looks so young!”

Random people started whispering while glancing at Zhang Dong who was standing in front of the hotel. A lot of the sects were gathering here now so this had turned into a big scene. Other sect...

US: 223

“You snakes from the Silver Spear Sect can not be trusted!”

“Who are you calling a snake!? It's not our fault that one of your Golden Saber Sect members tried to backstab our senior brother from our Sect. It was karma!”

The two sides were continuing their quarrel. During an expedition to some kind of secret ground that allowed junior disciples to participate one of the parties suffered a setback. One of their young masters fought another youth of similar status. One of the...

Runesmith: Chapter 39 – Into the sewers.

There was quite a commotion in Southtown. In the middle of the night, a loud explosion was heard from one of the warehouses. It was loud enough to wake up the people living there. The guards arrived at the scene quite late as always. They were expecting to find some kind of unregistered alchemist lab accident but instead, they were greeted by a dead burglar's body.

Next to this body was a youth dressed in a dark robe. There was also a tied-up person on the ground in front of the warehou...

US: Chapter 222

“The first guests are arriving!”

“Who is that, senior? They have a really big ship, are they from one of the top sects?”

“They are from the…United Element Sect?”

Two people were talking with each other. They were looking at seven approaching ships. They could see six regular-sized ones barely keeping up with a really large one made from metal. Even from here, everyone could tell that the large one was something special, it was a heaven grade treasure.

“...

Runesmith: Chapter 38 – Home invasion.

Roland closed the door behind him after he entered his workshop. On the inside, there were many tools hung up on the walls. Using his new class he had cleaned up the place and even set up some shelves.

He started segregating every resource he had like iron, bronze, and copper. Even during his work, he was sure to even pick up the metal shavings. He had a working smelter which he could use to melt these leftover metals into ingots. He also was thinking about making clay mold...

US: Chapter 221

Zhang Dong’s travels continued. They went through the old Dark Palm Sect area that was now occupied by the other middle sized sects. The further they traveled the thicker the residual Qi in the air became. It was no wonder why people fought over these lands. As they wanted to move towards the giant spirit vein that was in the middle of the Empire.

The two largest sects along with the Long clan were surrounding that spot from all sides. It was rumored that the three powers...

US : Chapter 220

A gong resounded throughout the area signaling that it was 7 am. The sun was slowly rising and some spirit beasts howled out along with the loud gong sound. From two beds two people rose up to attention, they were two youths just in their underwear.

The two looked at each other with quivering eyes. They had been unable to sleep during the night as it was finally happening. The time to begin their new life as United Element Sect’s trial disciples.

The loud sound that...

Runesmith : Chapter 37 – Testing new items.

A group of gray goblins was just standing around the remains of some kind of deer looking creature. This creature was at least twice the size of what a regular deer would be and it had razor-sharp antlers to go with it. It seemed to not have gone down without a fight as four dead goblins were right next to its corpse.

One of the humanoid monsters was a head taller than the rest and was holding on to a rusty longsword. It was apparent that it was the leader of this group wit...

US: Chapter 219

Zhang Dong was standing above the command deck just looking out into the distance. The giant flying vessel produced a loud buzzing noise as it sped through the United Element sect’s territory. Any spiritual beast that noticed the enormous flying object took off running or buried itself deep underground out of fear.

The people that witnessed the hovering behemoths just stood there with mouths agape. They vaguely saw a huge shape pushing through the clouds. They could barel...

Runemisth: Chapter 36 – Getting a workshop.

Roland gave out a yawn and moved his head to the side. His dome was sticking out from under a blanket and he could feel a cold breeze coming in through the window. He rose up and stretched while yawning, his eyes still a bit sluggish. He had gained some form of freedom through the years but he still was somehow used to getting up early in the morning.

This day was going to be slightly different than the rest. The new workshop that he was promised was going to be opened toda...

US: Chapter 218

Zhang Kuo looked into the communication jade. The sect leader had sent him an order to gather up people for the next event. They were to go to the sect gathering with the largest battleship that they had. This was the normal part, the odd one was the characteristics of the members that he should gather for it.

There was a list of the attributes that these people from the sect should have. One was that they were supposed to be old, the Patriarch even added that if they were ...

US: Chapter 217

The people left in the square started looking at each other while murmuring. Most of them were still stunned after getting healed by the nascent soul cultivator who was the sect leader. Their chatting got interrupted by a loud voice and the appearance of more people. These people were all wearing gray robes and were wearing emblems fit for the elder generation.

“Quiet down! You are all trial disciples now, you are not yet fit to be considered true disciples of the sect! Y...

Runesmith : Chapter 35 – Crafting a ladle.

Basic Forging [ Temporary ], Bacis Smithing Mastery[ Temporary ], Basic Runecraft [ Temporary ] Gained

Roland put the crafting instructions to the side, he had gained the knowledge about how to craft a blacksmith’s ladle that was used in forging. He didn’t think that something like this would be his first piece of work. He also needed to inscribe a rune on the metal tool before he could consider it finished.

He looked at the tool rack and started picking out t...

US: Chapter 216

Cheng Yun and Yang Rong were sprawled out on the hard rocky ground. They were panting, sweat was running down their foreheads and their robes were all ripped up. The continuous panting was only drowned out by the sound of the teleportation gates. The artifacts were active and produced a sort of humming noise.

The two youths weren’t the only ones here. The tired bodies of other disciple candidates were similarly unmoving on the cold ground. The test had finally ended and n...

Runesmith : Chapter 34 - Time to become a blacksmith?

Edelgard was a large city, it was considered prosperous in the kingdom and was renowned for its crafting professions. A lot of the country's magical equipment was manufactured right here. An item with the quality seal coming from here was most of the time guaranteed to sell and bring in coins.

These coins were being regulated by the merchant council as well as by the noble house that was here. The nobles mostly kept their noses out of the merchant business and only required...

US: Chapter 215

“Ohhh...t-that f-feels…”

“Ahhh…P-patriarch...”

The strange stuttering sounds of a grown man were heard from atop of the mountain peak. Matt didn’t like this part of the process of cleansing his sect members from impurities. If he performed it fast they would feel an excruciating amount of pain. If he did it slow it wouldn’t be bad, it was actually the reverse, it felt good.

He did it the first time with Feng Liena and thought that she might have ...

US: Chapter 214

Zhang Dong was looking at someone that he knew, someone that he had been intimate with. She was only a one night stand but it was an experience that he remembered all to this day. The woman’s name was Lan Fei and she was a merchant that he saved the first time he arrived at Moonlight City.

She was apparently a candidate for an elder. This role became available after you reached the late stage of foundation establishment. In the lesser clans, this was already enough to be ...

Runesmith: Chapter 33 – Returning to Edelgard

“Huh?”

A man about the age of 25 opened up his eyes. He had fallen down from what seemed to be a gaming chair. He was in a small apartment that only had one room that connected to a tiny bathroom. The whole place looked messy and unkempt.

“What was I doing?”

He stood up, his eyes felt heavy. He felt as if he had been sleeping for days. Dazed and confused he glanced around. The room around him seemed familiar yet distant at the same time.

He looked ...

US: Chapter 213

“Good day Patriarch.”

“Glory to the United Element sect!!”

Zhang Dong was walking through one of the corridors in the main sect sanctuary building. He nodded at the people that greeted him and continued forward. The sect recruitment trials were taking place at this very moment and he wanted to check upon them.

Five years had passed since this sect had been created. Everything had been built to completion before they decided on opening their doors. It too...

Runesmith :Chapter 32 – Fighting monsters in a mine part 3.

The party was in a large open cavern. After defeating the Myrmeke Soldier they got quickly swarmed by multiple monster ants. There were all the three variations of the Myrmeke monster ant that they already came across. The most dangerous were the soldiers that appeared, luckily the party had someone with enough firepower to keep them busy.

Multiple large balls of water splashed onto the approaching ant monsters. Following them were similar spheres, they radiated a slightly ...

US: Chapter 212

“You can do it, senior brother!”

The leader from the Black Scar tribe that was previously at odds with Yang Rong walked into the scanner tube. The other members from his clan looked at him with anticipation. Rong wasn't far behind as he also was the first one to get into another measuring device that was standing to the side.

The machines took some time to process the information and the two stepped out into the open. A ‘Passed’ in green letters appeared over ...

US: Chapter 211

“How does it look?”

“Think this is going to take a while, didn’t expect so many people to show up…”

Two people in United Element sect robes were talking with each other. They were blue with a sort of emblem attached to the shoulder part. This was something that indicated that they were elders and not disciples. There was also the violet color which was above this, it was reserved for core elders and disciples that were even above them in prestige.

On...

Runesmith: Chapter 31 – Fighting monsters in a mine part 2.

“How does it look?”

“Nae guid, laddie.”

Dalrak answered Roland while hitting the collapsed passageway with a pickaxe that he grabbed from the ground. He was a dwarf so he knew a bit about living underground and in caves.

“It's gonnae tak' us at leest a day tae clear thes it ur moor.”

The tunnel that they came from was in shambles. Dalrak also mentioned that he was unsure how deep it had collapsed in there, they could very well have to spend day...

US: Chapter 210 Vol 3. Start

“Take care Rong’er, you must succeed, the future of this tribe depends on it.”

A large burly man was giving his son a pat on the back, this man was the Tatar Tribe’s Chief and he was talking to his son Yang Rong.

“Don’t worry father I’ll be sure to get in, the sect is really close so I’ll come to visit often!”

The youth laughed out loud while smacking his chest that had gotten quite wide within the years. He wasn’t alone here, there were many...
