“You got everything?” Freya asked him once again.
He nodded and just to be safe, rechecked his new storage ring. Since neither Cain nor Freya was well-trained in the art of ring breaking, not even they were able to break into the Tier 5s storage ring.
Luckily, they knew some...
2025-08-22 19:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostJulius wiped the sweat from his eyes and took a look at the notification he just received.
[Kinetic Energy Refinement lvl 6 -> lvl 7]
In these past couple of weeks, he had managed to gain a whole whopping seven levels in the new skill. He would have gotten more, bu...
2025-08-21 19:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostFortunately, the spontaneous combustions weren’t as bad as he thought. It was mainly because of Freya’s manipulations that his kinetic energy went out of control. All she did was tweak his kinetic energy with her aura and gave it the last bit to destabilize his control over it.
She did ...
2025-08-20 19:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostIt took him a long time to finally figure out what skill he was going to go with. But eventually, he decided that [Kinetic Energy Refinement] was the best choice for him. Cain also agreed that this was a choice that likely didn’t have any downsides.
Julius could have waited and acquired ...
2025-08-19 19:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostJulius stepped back, avoiding Cain’s sweeping leg, and then was forced to absorb as much kinetic energy from the sudden blast as he could. He failed to siphon all of it and was staggered backwards.
Cain, like the ruthless sparring partner he was, didn’t let Julius a second to breathe. H...
2025-08-18 19:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostUpon his arrival, he found himself being welcomed by Freya right away. If he didn’t know any better, he would have suspected that she had been keeping a close eye on him. However, even if she had been, he quickly forgave her because she had come bearing gifts.
Wrapped in some famili...
2025-08-16 19:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostThey had returned to the village after a long trek back. Emil already had plans to return to the bandits' base tomorrow, but for the time being, they needed to organize some things. There were some very valuable things tucked away in that mountainside, and it would take time to recover all of it....
2025-08-15 19:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostAfter the Tier 5s were taken care of, the rest was easy. Despite how tired both of them were, the moment the Tier 5s fell, the rest of the fighting ceased. From what he could tell, nobody fighting wanted to die, especially not the bandits. Throughout the entire battle, they had been fighting very...

A massive explosion rocked throughout the cavern, and the earth mages who previously tried to collapse it on them were now desperately trying to prevent it. Since they w...
2025-08-12 19:59:52 +0000 UTC View PostJulius had never really fought with someone before. Most of the time, he was the person who had to hold back so that his teammates could get involved. This was the first time he was the one barely keeping up.
Emil, the enemy Tier 5, and the alpha Frost Bear were all beyond him. To be honest...

She dropped to her knees and vomited all over the ground. Thankfully, she had the foresight to eat light beforehand, but she still hated the astringent taste of bile as it dripped from her lips.
“Get up,” Marcus ordered her strictly and used his domain to...
2025-08-11 19:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostJulius quickly found himself getting swarmed by four bears at the same time. It was safe to say that these massive beasts took up his entire attention. He had already made a tiny mistake that was swiftly punished by his getting his entire arm ripped off in a single swing.
These four bears w...
2025-08-09 19:00:18 +0000 UTC View PostThe bear was already on top of Emil, lashing out with powerful swipes of its arms. Thankfully, the chief no longer had to focus on keeping the ceiling from falling. Since the barrier was no longer up, the bandits must have decided that collapsing the ceiling wasn’t as viable a strategy since th...
2025-08-08 19:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostJulius could only shake his head as he sensed the barrier slam into place. He had attempted to stall the activation, but he was a second too late. However, during the little clash of wills, he was able to get a gauge of the opposing Tier 5's aura. From what Julius could glean from that small conf...

Emil made sure to extend his senses as far as possible. He didn’t want anyone sneaking up on them. Stealth was key; if they could get close enough and through the barrier without being noticed, they would have a much better chance of succeeding.
Yet he didn...
2025-08-06 19:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostThey met with the chief, and Julius told the man as much as he could. The chief took it all in and immediately began forming a plan.
The plan was quite simple. They would organize a group to go out and scout the area. Since Julius was the only person who could sense the beacon, he was taske...
2025-08-05 19:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostWith their help, Julius was a lot less worried about taking care of these rescued prisoners. They seemed to know what they were doing and were able to organize the villagers quickly once they found an appropriate place to sleep for the night. They were also glad to see that he had taken the rod w...
2025-08-04 19:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostJulius had sensed their approach right away. They weren’t exactly the most sneaky people, but he had to give them some credit. There was some kind of skill or spell that hid their exact location. If not for [Absolute Spatial Perception], he didn’t know if he would have detected them as easily...

He watched in confusion as the cloaked figure escorted the villagers out of the bandit camp. He had gone out ahead of his team in order to scout, but didn’t think he would come across a situation like this.
He and his team had taken this mission fro...

He quickly sat down to meditate and calm himself. The dim orbs that represented ...
2025-07-31 19:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostIt was surprisingly easy to destroy the barrier. His little spatial knife did an excellent job at cutting through the inscriptions that enforced the shield. When he finally laid eyes on the prisoners, his heart clenched at the sight.
There was no life in their eyes. They were completely dea...

He snapped the metal case back closed and observed as the image in front of him vanished. That had been Sten, and he had asked Velton about the mission. Velton omitted some details, but that was par for the course. It would anger Sten, and Velton would h...
2025-07-29 19:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostThe sun quickly set on his back. The only visible light came from the night sky, and it was quite a magnificent sight to behold.
The moon was massive and had this ephemeral blue that lit up the entire sky. What was even more breathtaking was the iridescent rainbow that streaked across...

The main thing that he recognized, compared to a...
2025-07-25 19:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostUnfortunately, not all of his healings went that smoothly. There were a couple of times when Galten or Freya had to intervene on his behalf. It was especially true on some of the more complex injuries.

2025-07-24 19:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostAfter his morning class, he headed off to Freya, where he was met with a surprise.
“Okay, I think you are ready to start healing people,” she said first thing when he walked in.
He smiled brightly. “Finally! So you don’t think I am a danger to patients?”
She shut down ...
2025-07-23 19:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostHe established a comfortable routine, where each moment of the day was meticulously planned out.

Then he would immediately head over to Freya for his daily le...
