"Smokeless Cut."
In a cold, murderous voice, the man in the sky announced it as he made a downward slash. The cut traced a fine reddish line in the air that shot toward Erik and Frank, making the latter grip his wooden staff hard and start conjuring runes at full speed. But at that very...
"It's not such a big deal; I just got lucky; simplification forces you to make sacrifices." Erik replied in a calm tone as he examined the medallion.
"You're too humble." Elara commented with a small smile, to which Erik answered with an equal smile, then set the medallion aside and began...
Threadmarks: VOL 3 Chapter 64: It was easier than I expected.
"Gaze of Arkhé."
With a crazed expression, Lucien tried to reveal information specifically forbidden by the curse, intending to kill himself. But at that very instant, the green-eyed youth spoke with a calm expression, stopping him cold. With a face twisted by disbelief, Lucien looked at the...
Thanks for being interested. The truth is I didn't mark it as NSFW because I already have a NSFW fanfic and I didn't want to overwhelm myself writing two stories of that style, so I wanted to make my intentions clear from the beginning. But I'll consider changing it.
Threadmarks: VOL 3 Chapter 63: I ask, and you answer.
As the man awoke, the electric shackles began to rise into the air, leaving him hanging. At that moment, his eyes focused and finally locked onto Zoe. The beautiful knight stood before him with a cold expression, a dangerous glint in her blue eyes.
The man, caught between surprise and...
Threadmarks: Chapter 62: Could he be a ‘participant’…?
Is there anyone here who reads this novel? I haven't seen a like or anything like that in a while, so I'm assuming not, so I think I'll stop posting.
***
Thanks to the small dark electric arcs flashing around the man, he couldn't do anything and was quickly dragged into the shadows. Upon...
Threadmarks: VOL 3 Chapter 61: We have to move quickly.
Contrary to his expectations, Erik found the temple calm and dark, with only a few points of sunlight piercing through some holes in the layer of earth covering the window. After looking around with a serious expression, Erik prepared to take a step toward the temple, at which point Ebonique's...
Threadmarks: VOL 3 Chapter 60: You’re insulting me too.
Full of curiosity about the 'pseudo armors' Erik had mentioned, the group cautiously returned to the underground camp. The journey took longer this time, since Tiberius was exhausted and they had to make wide detours around the temples to avoid being detected.
Upon returning to their dark...
"What if we pretend to be hunters?"
"How would we do that?" Erik asked curiously as he looked at Frank, who quickly replied, a bit nervously."W-well, I was thinking we could hide with the help of concealment potions and capture a couple of hunters, get information out of them, and then use the...
Threadmarks: VOL 3 Chapter 58: Did the basilisk wake up?
Along with Erik's voice, the group heard a loud explosion in the distance, so they quickly turned around, shocked. In the direction of the waterfall, everyone could see a huge amount of water shooting up into the sky. But instead of seeming beautiful, the rainbow only filled the young people...
Threadmarks: VOL 3 Chapter 57: I have a bad feeling.
Upon hearing Erik, everyone turned to look at him with serious expressions, though a subtle glimmer was visible in their eyes. Erik was right—the real challenge was only just beginning.
Although it was a relief to have potions and equipment, the reason they desperately needed them was because...
Threadmarks: VOL 3 Chapter 56: I can’t believe we did it.
Containing their excitement as best they could, Zoe, Elara, and Frank watched as the magic circle glowed on the stone slab, and after a few seconds, the outer layer of resin on the cauldron began to slowly disappear. The moment the resin was completely gone and the water inside had just started...
Threadmarks: VOL 3 Chapter 55: Did you finish the cauldron?
Once Elara removed all the pieces of the clay mold, everyone could see the cauldron. The cauldron looked like a large pot made of dark metallic gray, with bright orange lines running across its entire surface. Upon seeing the cauldron, Elara couldn't contain her excitement, and tears began to...
After leaving the river behind, Erik led the others through the jungle, returning to the place where they had killed the tiger. But since they couldn't find it, the group went straight back to the camp. There they found Elara sitting calmly on one of the logs around an extinguished campfire. The...
After gathering data from the snake, Tiberius guided the group to three more animals: a species of bear, what seemed to be a moose, and finally a tiger nearly four meters long. By the time Erik was finishing up recording the tiger's data, the first rays of sunlight had begun to appear on the...
Threadmarks: VOL 3 Chapter 52: That was quite a bit easier than I expected.
In the midst of a dense, humid jungle, a group of three visibly injured young people were running at full speed, glancing back sporadically with expressions full of apprehension. Leading the group was Chen Ming, who had an open wound on his shoulder and a vertical cut that was dripping blood...
After a while, Erik noticed that the sky was getting darker, so he got out of the river and put on his armor after casting a simple cleaning spell on it. But first, he had to cast a drying spell on Tiberius, who, as usual, didn't understand the concept of privacy and had followed him into the...
With Erik's call, Tiberius quickly turned into a kind of dark liquid that fell to the ground, forming a circle. Without hesitating for even a moment, Erik jumped into the circle of darkness, falling at great speed as if into an abyss. At that instant, the egg reached its highest point, and its...
[Do you have any ideas?] After thinking for a while, Erik asked his contracted spirit. Letting out a disappointed sigh, Ebonique answered.
[A few, but they're risky.]
[I have an idea too, but it would be a last resort. For now, let's set it aside. First, let's check this place to see if we...
After a few minutes, Erik arrived in front of a huge waterfall, at which point he climbed down from Tiberius's back. After looking around and marveling a bit at the colorful assortment of plants and trees of various colors, heights, and shapes, Erik closed his eyes and focused entirely on the...
