Cries of surprise and joy come from people as they retrieve their Kyhosa and discover that they've become magic items. I hide my disappointment and wear a smile as everyone celebrates the success of the ritual. Spirits are high as everyone goes back to their boats and returns to their homes.
"What's wrong, Aly?" Dad says, noticing me
"Nothing," I say flatly.
"It's not nothing, did the ritual not work for you?"
"It did," I say after a few seconds. "It's just that I didn...

Before I can fully take in the changes to my Kyhosa, I hear Mom and Dad thundering up to my room. They burst through the door and sweep me up in a bone-crushing hug.
"You are such a genius!" Mom says while Dad tries to save me.
"Momara, need air!"I gasp as the air in my lung is being squeezed out. Technically I can live without air for a long time, but it's unpleasant.
If, after the last world message, no one knows about me, they do now; a high-grade skill like [Man...

I carefully watch my super-solid samples, straining as I try to reach the fourth stage of super-solid mana. The sample just doesn't want to compress any more than they already are. With a sigh, I lean back in my chair, giving up when my headache becomes too much for me. [Pain Tolerance] is blocking the pain, but it's very uncomfortable, annoyingly so.
I've been at this for four days now with slow progress, but I am making progress at least. In order to progress any further, I'll need he...

The next day is filled with making more versions of inscriptions testing how Runascript interacts with it. I can influence it a little by making it more effective at drawing in certain mana, but all mana is still drawn in, which makes me question how useful Runascript is.
I try other languages such as Lunascript and even English, and that's when the purpose became evident. English is a weird language with filler words that mean very little, whereas in the Runalymo and Lunaley language â...

I sit in my room with several large mana batteries while manipulating a large amount of mana just outside of the village. I keep the mana in a swirling pattern, intensifying the mana storm. By manipulating the MM fields of most of the mana and especially the storm's core, I can increase the velocity of the mana and make weak spells manifest.
I've been at this for four days now, trying to master two breakthroughs at once, MM force manipulations and storm conjuration. I need to double dow...

Ting! Manipulate Mana has obtained levels 489-497!
After a week, I've made a lot of progress, and the beginning of the Ritual site is set up. Piles have been driven into the seafloor to provide a sturdy foundation, and a temporary material storage was built to house the building materials.
All the elders had a meeting about the spread of the news of the Ritual. Specifics weren't told to the general populace, only that 'Myrou will bless their Kyhosa's on the day wh...

Yae comes upon a large monastery atop a hill somewhere in the outer city that spills over the inner crater city. Many people of different races, both small and tall, go about their day in long brown robes, their faces covered under hoods.
One of the robed people, short, reaching only the height of her waist, sees her group and quickly makes its way over to her.

I've been feeling some burnout and it's been hard trying to write some chapters, I tried to get through this month without taking a break but hopefully I'll be renewed for next month. As for the ten dollar patreons, don't worry I'll have a side chapter out soon.

Feyan hums joyfully. Little Aly is finally all grown up! Yafe and Yafel will be getting their Class in a few months too.
Aly fidgets as Feyan paints markings on her body, making her smudge the design.
"Lay still!" Feyan chastises. She wants Aly looking perfect.
"That tickles," Aly complains but holds still. Once the paint dries, it will stick for several days, and any little blemish will be stuck for the entire duration. Feyan wipes off the faintly glowing smudge an...

It's now been six months since I've been studying the apotheosis seed, and Now I am on the eve of my fifteenth birthday.

I wake up one day with my chest sore and a dreaded wetness accompanying it. I sigh heavily, I knew this day would come, and in a way, I have accepted that. Usually, most would see this as something to celebrate, but influences from my past life are hard to kill off, one of the reasons why I reject my past life.

I look at the suit armor in front of me, letting [Inquisitive Perfection] look over it one last time. The adamantine bone of the Leviathan has been shaped by my [Beauty Blessing] to make the perfect fit for Borala. Inside the suit are inscriptions to hide them so the Lunaleyans can't copy them; not like they would be able to make it work. They'll still need to figure out how to make the ink.
The armor is accentuated with adamantine essence steel and fitted with a mana battery to fuel th...

The morning after the ball, I am escorted to a room where the six governors are seated. The room is arranged in four circles; the inner circle is for the governors, the second is for the heads of the lesser houses. The third is reserved for the major Orders, and the fourth is for the minor Orders. At this time, only the inner circle is filled since the trade deal is purely a government issue.

There will be no chapter tomorrow (Friday). My mom is having some bad medical issue so I will take a day off to look after her.
For some good news I took some feedback and had the artist make some changes. There are some things to don't match up with the story but things get lost in translation and having to constantly make changes gets expensive and annoying. Ultimately it's not that important but maybe one day I can get a new cover that is more accurate to the story that has...

There are six governors and thirty heads of lesser houses who govern smaller towns, villages, and forts. One by one, they introduce themselves, where they govern, and a few other stuff should it be relevant information.
"I am pleased to meet your acquaintance, Ambassador Alysara!" A large man with says, flexing his large muscles with a large amount of suave and handsomeness. He is possibly the youngest of the governors, and he speaks with a heartful booming voice; his orange eyes study ...

The weeks pass in a flash, and now I have a clone arriving at the Lunaleyan Islands. I kept an eye on Tana since he looked rather depressed, but if I were to comfort him, it'd just make things messy. I may have lost one friend, hopefully only temporarily, but I gained another with the fairy queen, and I guess, the other snow fairies too. I visited them almost daily, but I had to break the news to them that I'll have to be gone for a few days while I attend these diplomatic meetings.

Tanafyam teleports back to the snake Pyramid and runs straight to the second floor, lighting the monster ablaze as he passes them; the bosses won't respawn until next week. Descending down the stairs, Tana takes a small break, so he is fully ready for the next speed run.
Since this is the second floor, the monsters will be stronger, and he is definitely going to need a break or two to get through it. However, he won't let that deter him. The more he levels his Bond, the more powerful he...

Tanafyam sits atop the tower overlooking the Dungeon Village, a walled village defended by thick tree trunks standing side-by-side, partially driven into the ground for stability. Each truck has been flattened on the sides, with one side having a V-shaped groove and the other jutting out in a V t make a connecting joint; the trunks are then glued together.
There are many buildings to facilitate the village's own industry, such as material processing shops where wood is treated, monster ...

It’s been a year since Klaman took over. The governors weren’t happy, and many used his takeover to revolt, they weren’t loyal, but it was a convenient excuse. The Young Emperor let them do whatever they wanted as long as they paid taxes and they loved it, garnering a lot of power for themselves; they quickly learned what true power really is.
As an assassin, Klaman is not widely known, so Advisor Kron Yuron is acting as steward, being the face of the changes. Klaman killed the re...

“How should you proceed to get the best deal for us?” Tusile repeats my question. “That is a very difficult question to answer. It all depends on the situation; usually, trade deals take days to ponder over and work out, but the most important rule is always to be the one in power. What I mean by that is always be the one who has something other people want, that way, they must always take a worse deal or simply not get what they want or even need.” Tusile gives me a wide smile.
