Two pairs of eyes collided; one cold and confident, the other, bright and unfettered.

When fate calls for their lives to meet, a story shall be birthed from hesitation and courage.

Heaven knows what kind of future they will create. 

Dare you flip the pages and find out?

Noku was walking home from the store one day until it all changed. Not remembering anything about how he ended up in some hospital full of Dokas, people who looked somewhat like humans but with blue skin, antennas, and slime coating their skin. Noku runs from the hospital for what seemed like an eternity until he ran into other “humans” only to discover he is in the same time period but on a different world. Follow Noku’s journey as he unravels mysteries of his new world and tries to go home to deliver his groceries to his mom.

I reached out and grabbed Min's shaft, my hand working steadily up and down his cock. It was warm and hard between my fingers, and I loved the elasticity and feel. Well, I had created this cock myself with the help of Pratter and Sandor. This cock would feel exactly the way I wanted it to feel, and I made it feel exactly to my tastes. Just imaging the hard thing plunging into me already excited me. It was big, but not too big. It was hard, but no too hard. It was the perfect dick for my pussy. 
"You know, Min, I've been thinking a bit." I sighed as my fingers worked over his cock. 
"Mm? Vesse?" Min asked cautiously. 
I moved myself, swinging my leg up over Min and mounting him. His perfect cock was now sticking right up under my pussy, waiting to impale me. I lowered my hips until just the head touched, but didn't slam it home. Instead, I teased the top of his cock with my pussy, squatting just enough so that it touched me, but didn't penetrate. A wet strain of lust, although I couldn't tell if it was his or mine, reached from his cock tip to my pussy lips. It was a visible conformation of how perfect our parts fit together. 
"I realized…" I continued. "That a lot of people don't tend to read author's notes and thus don't know any information about this story." 
"Re-really?" Min was breathing hard, the teasing being too much for him, especially as I started playing with his nipples, on top of two clearly feminine mounds.
"Mm… so I reckon a lot of readers don't know a lot of important details about my Tales as a Seductress." I sigh, squeezing his nipples tightly in the way he liked and eliciting a pleasing gasp. 
"Such as?" Min's face scrunched, fighting the pleasure my body was giving him. 
"For example, this story had already been out in entirety on machineslicedbread.xyz for over a year, and it is also the location of many of the writer's other erotic stories." 
"Vesse sell readers short, most know that." Min blushed. 
I finally dropped my hips down, letting that perfect cock slam into me. The warmth of it slid deep into my womb, and the feel was incredible enough my pussy trembled slightly in a mini-orgasm. That's what I got for being so teasing. In the end, I was the one who was most aroused. However, Min was flushed and breathing hard as well, so clearly it was doing it for him. 
"I'm not so sure they're aware of the blog whatsawhizzer.wordpress.com, where the author translated Arifureta, wrote Requiem to the Stars and Time and Place, and don't even get me started on his continuing series, Power of Creation and the World of Women, two very erotic and very different novels. Both have completed volumes that can be downloaded for free for all ******* supporters." 
"Of course, Vesse… aaaaa… it's tight." 
"Mmm, I'm not tight. Min is just too big." I tease as I rise my hips up and down, feeling his cock slid up and down inside me. "Either way, ******* support gets people early access to released chapters, full colored illustrations, re-edited pdfs, and some exclusive patreon-only content."
"Most reader, only want Tales…" Min shrugged, his mouth open as he panted in pleasure. 
"Ah, it's because they want to see me fucking my sexy wife." I chuckle, picking up the pace until each time my hips drop I can hear the wet sound of it sliding in. 
"Ahnn… t-tease!" Min cried out. "T-tell them… important things about tales." 
"Ah… I guess I should tell them some things. For example, this next chapter will be the last chapter of Tales of a Seductress." 
Min gasps. "Th-then, no more us?" 
I chuckle. "Of course not. Naturally, my Min and I will return in the sequel, Tales of an Enchantress. A story currently being written and released on machineslicedbread.xyz." 
"Ho-how many chapters so far?" 
"Nearly 50! Ahh… Min, right there… move your hips, ahhhh… right there!" I let out a cry as he started to hit me in the right spot.
He thrust his hips up into me roughly and a moment later I started cumming. 
As I panted and moaned, my devilish Min kept up the thrusting past my tolerance. I could barely talk, my voice coming out in a panting high-pitched moan. "Ahh… I can't get enough of Min! If readers want… want Min too… they should know about Min's story, a-a- a – aaahhhhh… a short side series following Min's origin and point of view through Tales of a Seductress!" 
"Vesse, C-cumming!" 
"Cum! Cum in me, Min!" I shouted lustfully, my tits bouncing up and down as I rode him as hard as I could. 
"I-is that all Vesse say?" Min demanded, his eyes flashing mischievously. 
"No… I have more… oh.. it's too good, you're driving me crazy with your cock, I can't stop cumming!" I cry out, my mind turning to mush. 
"Must say it or Min won't stop!" 
"Ahn… Mi-min is teasing too much, I'm really going crazy, but it's the most important part!" I cry out as I pant, erotic explosions shooting through my body as I leak all over Min's cock, my pussy clamping down in perpetually orgasm as Min penetrates me over and over again. "Next month will signify the official release of Tales of a Seductress the pdf. It includes this complete book, edited and formatted for ease of reading in a phone friendly pdf. It costs $5 to buy the book or it is free for all ******* supporters of $1 or more! Inkstone doesn't even allow simple bold and italics formatting, so it's a much different experience on pdf." 
"But what about future release!" Min demands just as he grabs my ass tightly, pulling it down until he penetrates me at the maximum level. 
A moment later I feel gobs of warm stuff shoot into me. It was Min's lust, magically converted into semen. It started filling up my womb, and for a second my eyes rolled up in my head. Min had to pinch my thigh before I could focus again. 
"Un… I feel it! I feel Min inside me!" I cried until he pinched even harder and I shook out of it. "Tales was released on inkstone to drive up interest for the pdf. Its sales success will dictate how quickly Tales of an Enchantress is finished and ultimately whether it's worth the author's time to release it on inkstone at all."
"So, if they don't pay, he stop writing? What Bastard!" 
"No, Min… ahn… it's so warm, I can feel it growing soft…" I relaxed, finally regaining my faculties. "Tales of an Enchantress already has 40 chapters out and will continue to release on machinslicedbread.xyz no matter what. However, if you want to read the completed book as a pdf, if you want to see TOAE and Min's story released on inkstone, or if you want TOAE increased in release speed (right now, it's been about twice a month), then you might want to consider dropping $1-$5 to support the author. He has many writing responsibilities, and so TOAS must prove to be financially worth his time."
With that, I lean over and take Min's lips, tasting my sweet and beautiful wife. Our tongues combine for a few minutes while our sweaty bodies heave against each other, the sweet smell of sex wafting from the pair of us. When we finally separated, Min gave a coquettish smile. 
"Basically, author greedy, want money?" Min summarized. 
"Exactly…" 
"…" 
"So, the TOAS pdf will release on 11/14/18. ******* supporters will not only get that book, but access to all other ******* content including previous finished pdfs. ******* will have various fundraising goals dictating whether TOAE will be released on Inkstone (Raise $100, TOAE once a week), Whether TOAE will pick up releases to twice a week ($200), or three times a week ($300). Basically, if there is a total of $300 increase in ******* and paypal pdf purchases between 11/7/18 and 12/1/18 (that's just 60 people buying TOAS at its retail price guys), then you will get the max releases of TOAE until this book is finished. Please support the release at *******.com/whatsawhizzer or visit the TOAS Table of Contents on Machineslicedbread.xyz to buy directly." 
"Sound good. What next?" 
"How about we start the Epilogue to Tales of a Seductress. Enjoy!"

After an unfortunate mishap with some stairs, I found myself in a fantasy world filled with sex and violence. Stripped of everything and turned into breeding stock by the first band of goblins I encountered, I turned to the only weapon I had available to me. Now, I’m a seductress, the first and only RPG class that weaponizes the art of seduction. I will survive this new and dangerous world the only way I know how: one person at a time.

Yes finally, I don't need to lie to my family about my power. Even If it's just one element it could lift the burden on my shoulder a little bit.

Lying to my love ones is not something I could tolerate but the situation is forcing me to tell lie. I'm helpless and could not do about it for now.

What I need to do is to become strong. Strong enough to conquer the world. Well yeah, To make the world better, I need to conquer the world first right?

If it was me in the past the thought of conquering the world would not appear on my mind. I chuckled.

I shook my head from thinking such things.

I continued flipping pages as I read the book 'the way of magic'.

Thanks to this book, I already have great undertsanding what magic is. 

It seems Magic is something cannot be explained in logical and scientific sense. Since magic defies the law of the universe. 

A magician can create a phenonemon at will, such as making a blazing fire out of nowhere, or move the earth at will or maybe split the ocean. 

A Magician needs 'mana' to supply a magic spell to create the phenomenon.'mana' is a mysterious energy that is very important in magic.

Without 'mana' there is no magic. So a magician needs to replenish there mana or they need to increase the capacity of their mana storage to create more spells.

The way to increase the capacity of mana is many. One possibility is by practicing higher tier magic spell, the second possibility is through meditation. There are many other ways to increase mana. 

There are also demonic ways that are not really recommended, for example absorbing the unpurified magic crystal of a monster. Doing such thing could make one's mind be corrupted.

And that is something I don't want to do. Even if I'm desperate to increase my energy or power. I have already one or two problem inside me, I don't want to add another one.

Anyway, Meditation can multiply the magic power of the magician. It can also toughen the mentality. This is good for me. I need this the most.

There are list of meditation books written inside. I embedded all the books about meditation in my mind. So I can search for it later.

I continued flipping pages, absorbing all the knowledge one by one. Time passes and the clock is ticking. Oh yeah, I'm using my power to absorb all the knowledge as fast as possible. 

I stopped at the page about the advantages of 'orb of magic'. 

I curiously read the lines slowly.

To learn magic, There are two path. One is fast and easy and the other is slow and very hard.

These two paths are, First path those who have 'orb of magic' and the second path is those who don't have 'orb of magic'.

Reading this part made me sighed in relief. Learning the first path is realy easy and the other needs hardwork`and pain, also the most pitiful part is that it's so slow.

Those who have 'orb of magic' have so many advantages along the way unlike the second path there are many large obstacles, the second could also end up in the dead end.

I click my tounge reading this. Fortunately for me I have my power. Or else the another world fanatic me will really practice magic no matter what if I did not have my power.

I shook my head.

Before I could flip the pages I hear a cute snoring noise on my side. I turn towards the source and found shina is sleeping. I patter her cheek and kissed her forehead.

"Mmmh, uncle."Shina mumbled in her sleep.

I chuckled. She's so cute. 

I turn my attention towards the book again. I flip pages after pages. There are things I don't understand about magic but with this book I feel like all those with mistakes was corrected.

I read about where magic came from.

The answers are many but all have no evidence. After all, it's all theory and no solid evidence to prrof where magic really came from. There are people wo believe god created magic or some believe it was because of the world evolving into next phase or something.

I was puzzled why there are list of books written inside this book if this was the first book in this library. 

But, My question was answered. It's because, Alice wrote it. Well, yeah of course right.

So how about the billions of books inside this library isn't too much? How did the Library get this all books in the first place?

Hmm, I want to ask that angel. Cause she's the only one who holds the answer after. But, I think it's useless to talk to her.

According to Shina, that angel would not talk about the library at all. How frustrating, That angel even have androphobia so asking her myself is literally impossible.

After flipping all the pages, I closed the book. I close my eyes, undesrtanding all the words I absorb from the book. This would also help me toughen my mentality. 

After processing all the knowledge in my mind. I released a sigh. That was really a mind taxing, but it is necessarry if I want to become strong. 

I opened my eyes, I place the book at the low table in front.

Shina leaned on my arm. still sleeping, I smiled wryly. Foolish girl, you just said you will help me. I chuckled lightly, You are sleeping instead.

I brush her bangs and planted my lips on her forehead. 

But my action awokened her.

Her eyelashes flutters as she open her eyes slowly. 

"Uncle...."Shina mumbled.

"What is it baby?"I asked softly.

"Are you done reading? Haaaaa"She asked groggily as she yawned.

"Yeah."I nodded.

"Mmn amazing...."She said.

"Thank you baby, are you still sleepy?"I smiled then asked her.

Shina nodded her head."Mmn"

"You should lie down on the sofa and get some rest.'I said.

"Where are you going uncle?"Shina rubbed her eyes. 

"I'm just going to take another book. Can you help me where they are?"I patted her head.

"Okay."She took out the ball in her pocket as she activated it again.

I tell her the books as she tells me where they are located. I memorize all the locations. 

"Thank you baby."I kiss her cheek.

Shina smiled.

I stood up and prepare to go searchthe books but Shina gra my hand.

"What's wrong?"I confusedly ask.

"Kiss."She close her eyes as she pursed her lips.

I smiled wryly at her action. I leaned down and gave her a peck.

"More kisses."She said while pouting.

I giggled and gave her what she wants. I kiss her again and this time it was not a pek but a deep french kiss.

She agressively sucked my tongue. What a naughty girl. I reprocrated her kiss as I suck her tongue too. We indulge ourselves for a while.


...


Not faraway from the duo. A certain somebody watch them with a gobsmacked face while her mouth opened wide. 

She could not believe what she just saw. She felt she is seeing an illusion so she rubbed her eyes with her eyes in attempt to dispel the illussion. But it did not disappear.

She was carrying a tray with cup and a white porcelian pot. She hesitated earlier but she still decided to deliver a tea to them but she did not expect to see something made her mind blown.

I'm the author of this immoral novel.

I want to say to those who wanted to read this then I warn you.

This novel contains inappropriate relationship, mainly incest. This also an adult content. So kids are not allowed.

The first 8 chapters was kind of rushed and fast.

I'm really not good at writing novel but I'm learning slowly.

As for grammar and English, welp. There might be problems with that along the way.

English is not my mother tongue so I'm sorry if it is not in your cup of tea.

Not my first book, the others, well I dropped or pending i guess.

By the end of the day, Riwall got the skills related to blunt and pole weapons.

As soon as Riwall finished the last routine, Edward said a few words about how Riwall needs to keep his high-intensity approach to the training and excused himself.


Riwall made his way to the shared bath, which resembled the ones made by the Romans, and got rid of all the sweat and red clay. He took notice of how the bathwater got slightly red-colored when he entered but in a few seconds became pristine again. According to a soldier that was there, it was thanks to an enchantment done on the floor titles.


He left his clothes in a trunk in the change room and was already dreading the fact that he would have to use it again after taking a bath. However, he was pleasantly surprised to open the trunk and find out that it was also an enchanted piece and that his clothes were as clean as possible.


Immediately he noticed one of the limitations of it: the clothes would be clean, but any damage done to them would not be fixed.


{I will have to ask Joshua for a few spare sets, this one won't last a week if today's training is the parameter.}


After asking for directions, he found his way to Hector's classroom. The Adventure's Guidmaster was already there taking notes of a book in front of him. Riwall had to cough to get his attention.


"Oh, welcome, Riwall! Please take a seat." Hector said with a smile.


{His demeanor is the complete opposite of what he showed in the guild, he is all giddy and full of smiles now. Back in the Guild he barely had any reaction when mom cried!}


"First, let me tell you how happy I am to be the teacher of you and your companions. I work as a bureaucrat because I am good at it and someone has to do the job, but my passion lies in researching magic and teaching it to the next generations."


He continued.


"According to your files, I have to help the other two develop their mana pathways. I expected this much anyways. It's extremely rare for commoners to have heirloom designs like most noble houses. Imagine my surprise when I read that you already had a pathway! Give me your hand. Let me check it for any fixable problems."


Riwall was reluctant to let a stranger circle their mana through his body. Hector noticed it and said reassuring words.


"Don't stress yourself. Even if I had any ill intentions, you would not be able to do anything. Hellen came to the guild an hour after Joshua left and asked me to check you, she said you designed your pathways alone and without any guidance. As you are still young and the pathways are fresh, I will be able to fix anything done wrong."


Riwall nodded and let Hector perform the check-up, he told Friday to keep her guard up, but she rebuked him by saying that she could not even imagine what she would be able to do to stop a mage as strong as Hector.


Hector's mana was much more fluid than Erika's. It made him feel cold and relaxed at the same time.


[In some ways his mana remembers Erika's, but this coldness stands out. It is a theory, but I think each person may have their mana attuned to specific concepts.]


Hector finished cycling his mana through Riwall's mana pathways and immediately started taking notes about something.


"Excuse me Mr. Hector, but is everything ok?" Riwall voice snapped the Guildmaster out of his trance. He had a happy smile as he started sharing his findings.


"It's more than ok! I don't know how you did it, but your pathways are perfect. I have to give the merits of that to your Bless; your mother told me it was a high-grade one, so I can only assume it was responsible for this. No way someone without a deep understanding of magic could come up with such an ingenious design. We will talk more about it later, but I will give you some books about techniques to hide your pathways from other mages."


He got serious before continuing.


"Never let others know about your design. Anyone would kidnap you and hurt you to get their hands on a design like yours. Even the Marsastor's best design pales when compared to yours. As soon as I can, I will personally instruct you in ways of hiding and disguising it. You have my word."


Riwall gulped at the idea of being tortured again. Of the few things he clearly remembered about his previous life. Nothing was as clear as his memories of the pain he suffered.


The private session with Hector came to an end when Anna and Gregory arrived. Hector dismissed Riwall, but not before giving him ten books about magic and two about pathways-hiding techniques.


-------------------------


Back in his room, Riwall looked disappointed at the books in front of him.


{These things can barely be called books, the handwriting of half of them is abysmal, and only one has more than 200 pages!}


[Well, these are the very first books thaught to children, what did you expect? A dissertation made by a master to his peers?]


{I expected at least something that would take us more than an hour to finish!}


[You know very well that you will only take one hour because of me. No one else can memorize a book with a single glance. On top of that, I will cross-reference the texts between them, rule out inconsistencies, fill the gaps, and finally, create a new and improved book on the subject using techniques from Earth.]


{Ok, fine, you won.}


[Get to work then! These books won't open themselves and turn the pages.] She said with a commanding voice, making Riwall flinch and salute the air.


{Yes ma'am!}


-------------------------


It took only 10 minutes for them to fill Friday's database with the book's contents and another 30 minutes for her to create a new one. Using the Earth's modern take on pedagogical techniques, the result was a book that used a simple language to convey complex concepts, making the harsh learning curve of the original texts something that could be easily absorbed even by kids.


Each of the kids received a big stack of parchment, a quill pen, and a small bottle of ink from Hector. Riwall went for the only desk of the room and got right into transcribing the book compiled by Friday.


He browsed the book in his mind and requested her to create some drawings to make some concepts even more accessible, which she promptly complied with.


She let go of all restraints they put together not to draw Edward's attention during training and guided Riwall's hands with mechanical precision.


In only 1 hour the 50 pages book was fully transcribed with impeccable handwriting. If someone from Earth were to look at it, they would say it was printed from a PDF. The drawings shared the same quality, but Riwall let himself be more creative and, with Friday's help, produced pieces that were both educational and beautiful to look at.

{By Odin's beard! Look at those gains!}


[That was unexpected. We now know for sure that our previous assertions were correct. The System does indeed rewards results more than effort.]


Suddenly Riwall felt a migraine starting to take form in his head.


{Uh, Friday, should I not be immune to migraines with you here and all?}


[The System is sending a massive influx of knowledge related to <Scribing> and <Drawing>, I am already intercepting it to make it easier for you to absorb.]


True to her words, Friday took only one minute to make the pain go away, and Riwall got to experience the feeling of learning dozens of drawing techniques and a handful of scribing techniques in the blink of an eye.


{What the hell was that? So scribing is the skill that allows someone to write spell books, enchantments, and glyphs? The System only taught me a few techniques on how to avoid minor mistakes when making those three, but nothing more. The drawing techniques are kind of useless. Everything it taught me cannot produce better results than our shared efforts.}


[Don't dismiss it so quickly. Not only does this knowledge complements what I have in my database, but it offers us insights that artists have on drawing that cannot be put into words. With only this much, I am already confident we can produce drawings even better than the ones we just made.]


{Well, if you say so. Now, do you mind imprinting the content of your book in my mind?}


Friday helped his brain absorb everything in the book they made. According to it, magic casting revolves around providing a spell with three things: intent, information, and mana.


The intent dictates the nuances of the spell. If a healer wants his spell to heal, he needs to wish for it to heal the patient. Should the healer harbor ill intention, the spell will be twisted and can make a broken bone heal in the wrong way or heal the exterior of a wound while leaving the inside damaged.


Information is directly related to how mana-efficient the spell will be. If the mage visualizes how his spell needs to change the reality around him,  it will take less mana and time to achieve the results desired. For example, if Riwall wants to make a flame, he can do it in two different ways. Either he plainly wishes for it to manifest, or he visualizes all the physics behind the existence of the fire. In the first scenario, he will have to expend vast amounts of mana to achieve what could be done with a fraction if he used the second method.


And finally, the third requisite is mana itself. This mysterious energy is what fuels changes in reality. The clearer the mana, the more efficient it is as a fuel. Take Hector cold mana for example, according to the book and Friday's observations; his mana is attuned to water, which means he will have an easier time using it to cast water spells than if he tried to use it for casting fire and dark ones.


The book then goes a long way into showing how to cast your first spells. As all ten books were made with kids as the target audience, they still lacked much information. But it was more than enough for Friday to begin researching it.


[Want to try casting a spell or would you instead go to bed?] Friday taunted him.


{Like hell I would sleep after learning how to cast spells! Call my family and tell them I will be late for dinner! I will not rest until I can blow up an entire room!}



------------------------------------


A glimpse of the future:

 

"When I step into that arena to fight against the families that did us harm, the first thing I do will be cutting their tongues out so they won't be able to give up. You can just sit by the side, I won't hold it against you later."

 

Anna looked right into Riwall's eyes and said with a malicious smile.

 

"You make sure they can't give up, I will make sure they never forget the experience." She was so angry that her hand could not stop shaking.

 

Riwall was too emotionally invested at this moment to understand how wrong it was for a XX-year-old to say something like that.

 

"And what about you, Greg? Are you with us?" He asked.

 

Greg looked at his two friends and showed a hint of a smile before answering.

 

"You two are all I have left in my life, of course I will be with you all the way. Riwall will make sure they don't give up, Anna will make sure they regret what they did, and I will make sure to bring you two back home alive."

Blinded by the dream of immortality, the researchers push the tests to inhumane standards. John is obligated to take part in sessions of torture designed to test the limits of the AI influence over the physical and mental health. What was supposed to be a new beginning in life turns into living hell.

--AUTHOR NOTE, PLEASE READ--

I will state here my promises to you, potential reader:

1. No harem! I don't trust myself to make a harem feel natural or healthy, I never met any person who has a personality that can adapt and live in a harem for reasons that are not monetary, so I can't draw inspiration from real life. Sorry!;

2. The enemies will not be bland and illogically mean. Some may feel like that at first, but I will take great care in fleshing them out, trust me. You may end up hating some, but you won't be able to deny that they had their reasons for what they did;

3. I am using a paid (and expensive) automated editor tool, and I take longer to write because I take my time in editing the stuff I write. I am aiming to improve and I will not shy away from constructive criticism, nor take offense for no reason;

4. Characters will die and will suffer, some will get over the tragedies and improve, others will not be as resilient.

5. This novel has a lot of ground to cover, it is neither a short story, a manual on crafting, or the script of some action scene. There will be both time skips and oversimplifications of some actions for the sake of moving the story forward. Time skips will be more prominent in the first 30 chapters. I will describe crafting processes and fights with more detail if they are essential for the chapter;

6. If I took my time describing something, it's because it is important. I hate novels that wastes time describing useless stuff. If you skim over something, the chances are that something in the future will not make sense. I am an adept of "Chekhov's gun" principle;

7. If in the future Webnovel comes to offer me a contract, I will first reach for the readers to know their opinion and see if they want to donate through other sites or not. It would be a dream come true to live of writing, but not if the cost is the alienation from the people that supported me along the way;

8. I already have 31k words on my auxiliary documents, I have a plan for the story, and I will not be making changes even if someone ends up noticing some foreshadowing and figures out what will happen. The story comes first.

9. I have a wife, a job that demands 9h every day and courses related to my job (lawyer) three days of the week, it's unlikely that I will be able to do mass releases at all. I will have a healthy amount of chapters to be able to post at least 1 chapter every day continually. Don't worry.

10. I will read all the comments. I will listen to all you have to say and will try my best to accommodate demands as long as they do not hamper the path I prepared.

11. There is an arc that spans the entire novel. Each volume will be an arc in itself while progressing a little bit of the main arc. Every arc will have one or more main antagonists.


I think that's it! Thank you for reading it all. Have an awesome time reading my first novel!! <3

Seeing that Klein was momentarily at a loss for words, the chief shepherd of the Church of the God of Combat, Larrion, revealed a solemn expression.
"Furthermore, the fall of a deity is only temporary. 'He' will eventually return and awaken using my body."
"…" Klein frowned slightly when he heard that. He didn't know whether the angel was having mental problems and wasn't far from losing control because of his shaken anchors, or if "He" was too affected by the God of Combat. In a certain sense, "He" had become "His" backup.
Ignoring the Sequence 0 true deities, even Kings of Angels and a number of angels would often not completely die!
"You should know very well that the apocalypse will come in another ten or so years. I believe that the speed of the God of Combat's resurrection won't be fast enough." Klein attempted to awaken him with the cruel reality.
Larrion snorted.
"You will never be able to imagine the power of God."
"He" didn't give Klein the chance to continue his persuasion and revealed a smile.
"In short, I won't make a deal with you. Pray, pray to Evernight. Pray to the deity you believe in to seal 0-02 and save you!
"But all I need to do is wait another thirty to forty seconds before I can leave this place."
Klein looked up at the "curtain" hanging from infinitely high above and didn't say anything else. He made his Spirit Body return to the library where the Trunsoest Brass Book was.
"Do you have any ideas?" he asked without any delay.
Arianna shook her head slightly and asked, "What did Larrion say?"
"'He' told us to pray to the deities to seal 0-02…" As Klein spoke, he was suddenly stunned.
What Larrion said didn't seem to be problematic, but he had inadvertently revealed a very important piece of information.
He believed that deities could seal 0-02, no matter who "They" were!
Then, what does a deity rely on to seal it? By forcefully suppressing it with "Their" Sequence 0 status, or use a might that can destroy the world? Many questions appeared in Klein's mind.
At this moment, Trunsoest Brass Book flipped to a blank page, producing silver words one after another—the language it used was the one on the first Blasphemy Slate. It seemed to be the source of all the languages that were still in use.
In the blink of an eye, the silver words formed into new text:
"The Belltaine City Library is the place where the Trunsoest Brass Book is kept. It is a place that must be heavily protected. Living beings who intrude without the Trunsoest Brass Book's permission will be severely punished."
It's an elevation of the punishment. I might be sentenced to death next… Klein's pupils dilated as he quickly deduced the most likely development.
However, he didn't panic at all. Instead, he smiled and said with sincerity, "My wish is to shrink the size of the Belltaine City Library, so that the spot where Ma'am Arianna and I are is the boundary line."
As soon as he finished speaking, he snapped his fingers and granted his own wish.
As the snapping sound reverberated, the lawn that corresponded to the Belltaine City Library disappeared. The building shrunk and the walls retreated. Soon, only a tenth of its original size was left.
Klein and Arianna subconsciously "arrived" outside the floor-to-ceiling windows. Through the open window, they stared at the Trunsoest Brass Book that remained on the rectangular table.
There was no change in the distance between them and the target. They were still very close, but they were no longer within the confines of being severely punished. However, due to their first violation of the curfew, they were once again whipped by an invisible law enforcer.
After accumulating the wishes of restoring buildings one after another, Klein could create quite a miracle in this aspect!
He didn't make another wish and continued thinking. He analyzed the hidden meaning behind the words of the chief shepherd of the Church of the God of Combat.
No, it shouldn't have been forcefully suppressed using a deity's status and level. Otherwise, my spiritual intuition would've told me the answer long ago. That would've made me activate Sefirah Castle's aura and complete the seal…
From a mysticism point of view, this is understandable. This is because 0-02 is clearly related to a particular sefirah. It's difficult to suppress it by relying on the status and level of a Sequence 0…
By relying on the might of the deities "Themselves"? This might be possible, but there's a high chance that it's not the real method. This is because Larrion knows of a sealing method that can be completed without relying on the deities…
What's special about a Sequence 0 deity? And what methods can an angel use to achieve such a special sealing method?
The most special thing that I can think of at the moment is that a Sequence 0 deity contains a Uniqueness. This is something I can't summon from the Historical Void. It really has the characteristic of being "unique."
But how can an angel indirectly simulate a Uniqueness?
Countless thoughts collided in Klein's mind, producing large amounts of sparks, but he still couldn't figure out the key to the problem.
At this moment, the mercury-colored words on the Trunsoest Brass Book continued to seep out, forming new paragraphs that stipulated that Klein and Arianna were a group of people that needed punishment.
Arianna observed silently for a while before suddenly saying, "I'll try to 'Conceal' the soil beneath the table to make 0-02 fall to the core. Raise your level of alertness to prevent any accidents."
Conceal" the soil… Fall to the core… Klein's heart stirred. He felt that this was a rather good solution.
The Trunsoest Brass Book had only forbidden the touching and changing its condition at present. The environment wasn't equivalent to its condition. In addition, they were only forbidden from entering Belltaine City Library. It didn't mean that Klein and Arianna couldn't exert certain influences on it.
And when 0-02, which hadn't been banned from leaving, passed through the concealed "soil" and fell to the core, it would lose its influence on Belltaine City due to the distance, causing the laws it had set up to fail. That was the case unless it was awakened further or came to life, allowing a larger region to fall under its jurisdiction.
This way, Klein and Arianna no longer needed to be restricted by the rules. They could seek help from the Evernight Goddess!
However, when Arianna finally thought of a solution and was preparing to carry out the plan, a new law was completely formed:
"The Belltaine City Library is the place where the Trunsoest Brass Book is stored. It is a place that must be strictly protected. No living thing or object is to deal any form of damage to it in any way."
Indeed, 0-02 has also noticed this loophole… This loophole… As Klein frowned slightly, he suddenly had an idea of what he had been thinking about.
The Uniqueness of a Sequence 0 deity was indeed unique, but "Their" sealing of 0-02 wasn't directly done by using the authority and power that came from it.
It was very likely that "They" could rely on this trait of a Uniqueness to lure 0-02 into setting up a series of contradictory rules, causing the Sealed Artifact to fall into a paradoxical cycle!
In this aspect, angels, saints, and even ordinary people could accomplish that by themselves. The key was to think of paradox and guide it into establishing it.
As for how to seal 0-02 after it entered a paradoxical cycle and was preparing to fix the loophole, Klein didn't have any clues at the moment, so he needed to make further observations.
How should I create a paradox… All the rules and regulations set up by 0-02 quickly flashed through Klein's mind.
In just a few seconds, he acutely grasped a point where he could create a paradoxical cycle. He quickly turned his head and said to Arianna, "Ma'am, let's not destroy the city library. We will directly 'Conceal' the other parts of the Belltaine, indirectly causing it to lose the necessary support. This place will then collapse on its own; thus, falling into the core."
Arianna didn't immediately do as he said. Instead, "She" turned "Her" head and gave Klein a deep look.
"This will cause the deaths of many civilians."
"We have to make a choice between the lesser of two evils," Klein said seriously.
Arianna didn't respond and fell silent. It was as though "She" was in an intense mental struggle or making the appropriate preparations.
At this moment, the two brass pages that had just written the two articles quickly created more new rules:
"Belltaine is the city where the Trunsoest Brass Book is located, a true Holy Land in all senses of the phrase. No living thing or object is to deal any form of damage to it in any way."
Upon seeing this text, Klein wasn't disappointed. Instead, he smiled.
With a snap, he snapped his fingers, causing scarlet flames to surge out of his pocket and quickly drown him.
In just two to three seconds, a stream of flames descended from the sky. Klein jumped out and carried a person.
That was one of the four Beyonders he had saved previously. He was the Belltaine local, Biles!
"Go in and quickly flip through the brass book," Klein said calmly as he pointed at the 0-02 on the rectangular table.
Biles didn't know exactly what had happened, but he believed that this magical "magician," who had fulfilled two of his wishes, had found a way out of the situation plaguing Belltaine. Thus, after taking a deep breath, he entered the city library through the miniaturized, open floor-to-ceiling windows.
During this process, he didn't receive any severe punishments. In fact, he wasn't even whipped!
Upon seeing this scene, Klein's smile widened.
0-02 had produced a paradox!
Due to Arrodes's existence, the Trunsoest Brass Book could only do a most comprehensive prohibition, preventing any living being or object from dealing any form of damage to it in any way."
As a city, Belltaine's definition didn't just include its terrain and buildings. It definitely included the residents here.
This way, if 0-02 punished a Belltaine citizen like Biles, any damage to him would go against the law it had just issued. If it didn't punish him, it would go against the laws that prohibited him from entering the city library. Hence, the Trunsoest Brass Book had entered a vicious cycle!
Of course, Klein believed that such a paradox would quickly be corrected by appending additional clauses. He only hoped that Biles would be able to flip through the brass book and find clues to sealing it!
"Pay attention to the currently open page. Once an article is about to take shape, immediately come out," Klein instructed as he stared at Biles and 0-02.


With the rising tide of steam power and machinery, who can come close to being a Beyonder? Shrouded in the fog of history and darkness, who or what is the lurking evil that murmurs into our ears?

Waking up to be faced with a string of mysteries, Zhou Mingrui finds himself reincarnated as Klein Moretti in an alternate Victorian era world where he sees a world filled with machinery, cannons, dreadnoughts, airships, difference machines, as well as Potions, Divination, Hexes, Tarot Cards, Sealed Artifacts… 

The Light continues to shine but mystery has never gone far. Follow Klein as he finds himself entangled with the Churches of the world—both orthodox and unorthodox—while he slowly develops newfound powers thanks to the Beyonder potions.

Like the corresponding tarot card, The Fool, which is numbered 0—a number of unlimited potential—this is the legend of "The Fool."

Dream state? Asked Penny to herself in her mind. She had initially thought to ask father Antonio about it but she never came to ask after realizing that the man didn't know about it. To instigate dreams took skill and if one didn't follow the protocol there was no saying what would happen to the person's mind. Because there was a possibility of the present memories being wiped out. 
"No," she heard Damien object over the suggestion which Alexander proposed, "Penny can take her time in finding the memories. None of us are in a hurry to know what happened in the past," he knew the consequences in meddling with fate, especially the current situation where Penny's mind was delicate. Before it was only during sleep which was rare that she experienced the flashback but right now even the shortest duration of time the memories would come to leak out but they were never in the whole picture. 
"It is just a suggestion," Lord Alexander raised the glass he held in his hand, taking a sip from it. 
"I can wait," Penny nodded her head. As much as she wanted to unfurl and know where and what had happened all these years, she didn't want to feel overwhelmed if she were to unlock the memories which would end up flooding through her mind. It would have the ability to break her emotions which she had been holding on to and she wasn't ready for it. 
She could only hope her mother could disappear and they would never come to meet ever again. To never cross paths with each other but that was far from it. She needed mental peace before she would delve into anything. 
"Then there is no rush. You can instead concentrate on creating the spells," he raised his glass to her, "I have an old copy of my mother. It isn't in the study room," this got her attention. Another book which she had not seen?
"What is it about?" she asked Alexander with her curious eyes looking at the Lord. Was it another book of spells? Or was it a book of potions? Or maybe a journal over the past of the white witches. 
"It is about this," he pulled out the chain which he wore. Showing the cross where the blood-red stone sparkled very lightly in the presence of the fireplace in front of them. "It speaks on how to create charm stones."
"Oh," the excitement slightly went down as she already knew about to create some of the charm stones which she had seen in the church but they weren't done abundantly. 
A faint smile was seen on his face, "Did you know that what the church is creating is only the synthetic version of the real stones?"
Penny blinked at him, "What?"
"It isn't real stones what they are creating, they are stones that only mimic and are made to fool people."
So all this while what she had been learning had been nothing but artificial stones? 
"Why would they do that?" Damien asked himself curious about the witches who were creating them, "Do the people in the church know about it?" 
Alexander completed the drink in his hand, placing the glass to the side and leaned back thinking about it, "I don't think the witches are aware of it. This generation of witches. It is very similar to what you did with the black witches. Giving out wrong information so that they believe it is true and go ahead with it. You should read it, Penelope," he said to her. 
When the book was brought to her, Penny flipped through the first page and went through the pages. It was true. The composition which was used to create the charm stones was completely different from what was there in here. 
"You never went to make one?" Penny asked Alexander looking up from the book she was reading. 
"I never had enough resources to make one for myself and I already have one," he said pointing the cross that he was wearing right now that never left his neck, "My mother had only a few potions which she could make while most of it you will find in that church of yours which you have been working. With the nameless labels on the potions which are in the secret room, no one would be able to make one. Even if they were able to do it, it would result in bad luck. There's a little tale behind the book. Open it," he urged her. 
Staring at him, she looked back down. Turning the book around she started to flip the pages from the backside. One after another empty page before she reached the last written page. The words were written down there read,
'Careful with the water, careful with the colored water. Never to add more and never to add less unless you want to bring yourself misery over your lack of conduct.'
It was a very few words that sounded more like a warning. 
She then heard Damien say, "What about some of the pureblooded vampires or humans who have been wearing the stones. Are they just a hoax?"
"Maybe. Most of the pureblooded vampires do not wear the stones, it is just some of them. Some believe it to be fake and useless while some know-how malicious the stone can turn out to be. The humans, however, take it for luck, sometimes receiving it as a piece of the gift which in truth the gifter has ill intention if it is another human. Very few mean good luck while the rest will wish for your bad luck."
"How do we know then? If the stone is genuine or if it is artificially made or has the elements of bad luck in it?" Penny questioned Lord Alexander wanting to know more about it. 
"Now that is the trick. It is the white witch who creates the charm stones and it is the black witch who you verify it with, because of their free access to the forbidden magic," Alexander replied to her burning question.

"Who touched you?" he asked, his eyes brooding down at her and when she didn't answer, his voice thundered in the room, "WHO?"

The butler who stood near the wall spoke shakily, "Sir, it was Mr. Reverale," Damien's face turned sour, his jaw ticking in anger he turned his face to the side where the butler stood behind.

"Bring the man here."

"N-now?" stuttered the butler. It was the time of night.

Damien who hadn't broken his eye contact with the girl in front of him, pushed his hand against the wall which now rested beside his beautiful girl's head. Turning his body, he first looked at his butler who had his head bowed. With great courage, the butler came to meet his Master's eyes, "Do you have any other better time? Or should it be after I wring your neck?" Damien asked calmly tilting his head. Not a second later, the butler ran out of the room to return back with Mr. Reverale after twenty minutes.

"Damien, are we having a late tea party?" Mr. Reverale came to greet but the master of the house had other plans. Spotting the knife that was stuck to the apple on the table, he reached for it to pull it out.

Just as Mr. Reverale went to exchange a handshake with him, Damien took hold of his hand to place it on the table. In one swift movement as if he were chopping onions, he chopped the four fingers of the man off his hand making him yelp and cry in pain.

"No one touches what is mine. I am sure this will remind you the next time you even think about touching her," sighed Damien as if he were tired of telling people to keep their dirty hands off his belongings.

Meet Damien Quinn, a pureblooded vampire who is a complete narcissist, brash with his words and stingy even though he is rich who haggled when he bought a slave from the black market.

On the other hand, meet Penelope who believes she is a 'guest' for a few days at the Quinn as she is intent on escaping from the odd vampire who needs therapy.

  "Hello, assalamualaykum," I said in a small voice, holding my phone up to my left ear.

     "Walaykumsalam, please who is this?" I heard Zain's manly voice on the other side.

     "I'm Ruqayyah; your course mate, the same group on ARB101," I said timidly, twiddling with my hair nervously. 

        "Oh Ruqoyyah!, sorry I didn't check the caller before receiving it" he chuckled lightly and that made my stomach to flip. 

     "I need your help," I said and ó closed my eyes for a bit. 

    "What help?" he asked urgently as if sensing the hesitation in my voice.

     "Erm..you know..em," I stumbled with my words. It was embarrassing. 

      I mustered up my courage, "I was supposed to enrol for seven courses but I only enrolled for two courses. Please can you email me the remaining courses PDF files" I asked weakly, wishing he should say yes.

   "Okay send me your email address" he replied instantly without missing a bit. 

   "Thank you, thank you very much, I am very grateful" I chimed happily, bowing my head in gratitude as if he could see me.

Foolish girl

     I called Zaid too he also said I should send my email address. Within some hours, I received the mails from Zaid, exactly what I needed.

    I slumped down on the tattered couch in my messed up room and opened my WhatsApp to chat with Zain.

  I was someone who gave anyone or everyone she met nickname apart from their real names.

*Me* Hey baby boy☺

*Zain* Small girl

*Me* Abeg, who be small girl

*Zain* You na

*Me* Whatever, let's play twenty questions...

*Zain* Okay but dunno how to play it

*Me* I'm gonna ask you twenty questions and you gonna ask me. Vice versa

*Zain* Okay

  By the time we were through with the game, I'd learnt so much about him.

    He was in his early thirties, samosa was his favourite food. His parents were from Kogi but he was born and brought up in Kaduna. He studied mechanical engineering at Abu Zaria. His father married two wives; he was the fifth out of twenty from his father's children while he's the first out of twelve eight children from his mother.

   We talked about me too, I was in my late teen but behaved like a brat sometimes.

Tang Li Xue jumped out from Xiao Hei's embrace onto the top of the table and took one of the books.

"Xiao Bai, those all are my book collections from the study room! Give it back to me, don't play with all those books anymore! I promise I will bring you a colorful cuju ball tomorrow, how about it?" Xiao Hei tried to persuade Tang Li Xue while reaching his right hand to take his book back.

'This impolite concubine! Who wants your cuju ball?! Stay quiet for a moment!'

However before Xiao Hei could hold the books, Tang Li Xue already slapped his hand away and started to flip the book's page swiftly.

'Xiao Hei, I hope you are smarter than your aide, Feng San!' Or I would really disown you if you are not able to understand my explanation!'

Tang Li Xue sat on the table and raised the book toward Xiao Hei with her left paw while her right paw began to pointing word by word.

-I… want… to tell… you… a secret…-

Tang Li Xue found it strangely satisfying when she was watching a dumbfounded expression plastered on Xiao Hei's handsome face.

Who knows that insolent Xiao Hei still thought Tang Li Xue was playing around with his books and took this chance to grab all of his books back!

'Bad Xiao Hei! Insolent Xiao Hei! Idiotic Xiao Hei! Give me back all the books! Grrrrr!'

Tang Li Xue bared her fangs against Xiao Hei, she jumped onto him and bit his wrist!

Surprisingly, Tang Li Xue still cannot hurt Xiao Hei's hand at all even when her strength already grew so much stronger than last time! She could only leave a bite mark on Xiao Hei's skin.

"Sigh… Okay, Okay, whatever Xiao Bai's like! I can buy it all again anyway although it would be slightly troublesome… But nothing can replace my Xiao Bai's joy after all!" Xiao Hei was smiling full of gentleness as he saw Tang Li Xue that still fuming with rage.

He put all the books back onto the table to let Tang Li Xue play again with it to her heart content. He petted Tang Li Xue's smooth furry head a few times before going to his bed.

'Damn…what a troublesome guy! Sigh… there is no other choice! Let's put my seduction skill to work!'

Tang Li Xue also jumped onto the bed and started to snuggle to Xiao Hei's embrace. She even started to lick Xiao Hei's face repeatedly and made him itch then started to laugh.

"Ahahaha… Okay, Xiao Bai! You win! I will not go to sleep anymore… I will accompany you to play tonight! What do you want to play?" Xiao Hei laughed while embraced Tang Li Xue's tiny soft body once again and sat on the bed.

'Okay, that's enough! Get your naughty hands off me! Urgghhh… Why did I start to feel that my pride as a future queen has been sullied? Whatever at least he gets up now… Let's start our business again!'

Tang Li Xue jumped out from Xiao Hei's embrace and landed back onto the table.

She took another book and started to show it again to Xiao Hei while using her right paw to point at some words like before.

-Uncle… secret… message…-

Then Tang Li Xue pushed a slip of tiny paper that contain coded message to Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei's playful expression full of smile completely vanished and replaced by his solemn expression the moment he saw the tiny slip of paper.

Tang Li Xue found Xiao Hei's current expression a bit scary.

She really liked his usual gentle expression that full of laughter when he was with her far more than his current expression.

But Tang Li Xue did not let it bother her for now and she continued to point out some words from the book to Xiao Hei again.

-To… steal… medicine… box… from… your residence…-

This time Xiao Hei widened his eyes in surprise and asked in disbelief: "You can read this secret message too?!"

Tang Li Xue quickly nodded with a very smug expression plastered on her face.

Xiao Hei almost broke his solemn expression and laughs out loud again when he saw how cute Tang Li Xue was acting so arrogantly with her tiny body.

"Cough… okay, Xiao Bai, I believe you! Where did you get this secret message from?" Xiao Hei asked again but with a gentle smile on his face, this time and he also pitched Tang Li Xue's soft furry cheek.

Tang Li Xue put down the book in her paws and took another book. She began to flip it open again like before and show it to Xiao Hei again.

-Your…Butler… receive it… from… chef…-

"...….. It's really hard to believe that I have so many moles on my side!" Xiao Hei frowned deeper when he remembered Feng Yi's betrayal since then he really hated the traitor very much and the trauma also made him much harder to believe all the people beside him.

Tang Li Xue took another book and pointed several words toward Xiao Hei again…

-Second wind… and… many… more… are… spices…-

Yes, you did not read it wrong. She really pointed at 'spices' words since she cannot find 'spies' words…

'You can't blame me for that, okay?! This is not in the modern world where you can find 'spies' words easily in detective or criminal novels! So this is not my fault!'

Xiao Hei thought for a while on what she means then he stared at Tang Li Xue weirdly and says with a serious tone: "Xiao Bai… Feng Er and the other are humans, not spices…"

Tang Li Xue rolled her eyes back and facepalmed when she heard Xiao Hei's words.

After thinking deeply for a few minutes, the light bulb on her mind flashed brightly. She took another book and began to show several words in it to Xiao Hei again.

- Second wind… and… many… more… are… the same as… First… wind… and… I know… all… their… identities…-

Tang Li Xue used several days to stalk them one by one before to level up her skills and combine them into [Ethereal Form] divine ability.

Xiao Hei stunned for a while, he closed his eyes while mumbling: "So even Feng Er had switched to uncle's side…"


Xiao Hei went quiet after that as his finger tap the table rhythmically with his eyes still closed…

Tang Li Xue could tell from Xiao Hei's usual habit that this means he began to pondering his next move carefully so she did not disturb him and wait patiently.

Actually, Tang Li Xue already tried to create a quest to tell Xiao Hei about the secret message and spies but who knows that the system did not respond at all!

It looks like the difficulty level to tell Xiao Hei about it and make him believe her words were really low for the system standard. That was why it did not recognize by the system as a quest since he already completely trust her even before she told him about it.

'But why?'

Before she could think of any reason, Xiao Hei already woke up from his deep thinking mode.

Xiao Hei patted Tang Li Xue's furry head gently the moment he opened his eyes and he asks: "How about this, I will bring you to my office at the sect's headquarter tomorrow and you will help me identify any spies on my side?"

Tang Li Xue quickly put an act as if she was pondering so hard about it.

"I will make you an extra portion of roasted meat from tomorrow onward! How about it?" Xiao Hei asked while playing with Tang Li Xue's furry chin with his fingers.

'So stingy! I only rewarded with an extra portion of roasted meat for my hard work and crucial information?!'
Tang Li Xue raised 2 of her claws on her paw…

'At least make it two extra portions!'

Seeing the words on the cover, Linley couldn’t help but feel startled.

A Brief Summary of the Profound Mysteries of the Seven Elemental Laws?

Linley’s greatest problem right now was that he didn’t know anything at all about many of the profound mysteries of the Elemental Laws. Although it was said that others weren’t capable of teaching him regarding the profound mysteries, and that he had to gain insights on his own, if he at least had some general guidance, his training path wouldn’t advance in a wrong direction.

“Bebe, let me look at that.” Linley said hurriedly and eagerly.

“I knew Boss would want this.” Bebe laughed, then tossed over the book.

Delia had fused with a divine spark, and so she didn’t need to gain insights into any profound mysteries. Naturally, she didn’t need to read this book either. As for Bebe…given his lazy nature, he didn’t have the mental energy or discipline. As soon as Bebe saw the book, though, he understood that his Boss would definitely love it.

Holding the book, Linley immediately began to flip through and read the ‘Compilation on the Elemental Laws of the Earth’.

The Laws of the Earth had in total six profound mysteries. These were the ‘Essence of the Earth’, ‘Strength’, ‘Worldwalking’, ‘Vitality’, ‘Gravitational Space’, and the ‘Throbbing Pulse of the World’. This book had some basic introductions regarding each of the six profound mysteries, as well as the powers they held.

It even contained some information about simple ways of using them.

“The Throbbing Pulse of the World should be used like this?” Linley read on, shaking his head. “The person who wrote this book clearly only knew just a tiny bit regarding the Throbbing Pulse of the World.”

As someone who had trained in the Throbbing Pulse of the World, Linley naturally could tell that the person who wrote this book either knew just very little, or was just trying to cover up how little he knew.

The so-called ‘usage methods’ were extremely simple and very weak ways of using the Laws.

Linley completely ignored this sort of information regarding how to apply the Laws. Linley cared more about the descriptions of the other profound mysteries of the Laws.

“So that’s the case!” Linley, seeing the description of the ‘Strength’ profound mystery, sighed in agreement. “Originally, I thought that the Laws of the Earth included a ‘Massive’ type profound mystery, but it seems that’s just one aspect of the ‘Strength’ profound mystery.”

The Profound Mysteries of Strength was the highest level physical attack type profound mystery of the Laws of the Earth, and it was very complicated.

While reading the book, Linley didn’t notice the passing of time.

“So that was the Worldwalking ability.” Linley sighed in praise. “Back in the past, the O’Brien Empire’s ‘Monolithic Sword Saint’, Haydson, had already just touched upon the edges of the profound mysteries of Worldwalking.”

In the past, with a single step, Haydson had been able to travel dozens of meters. Linley had been shocked greatly at the time.

Actually, this was the simplest usage of Worldwalking; it couldn’t even be described as having reached a ‘basic’ level of mastery.

Worldwalking allowed a person to completely fuse himself into the boundless earth elemental essence of the world. It wasn’t that Haydson had teleported; rather, he had merged himself into the earth elemental essence, and then moved through it to another location before reappearing.

Back then, Haydson had been too weak, and the amount of time he could remain merged with the earth elemental essence of the world was very short.

For a true expert, when the Worldwalking ability was used, one could completely disappear and remain merged with the earth elemental essence of the world for a long time.

After finishing reading regarding the six types of profound mysteries of the Laws of the Earth, Linley began to flip through the ‘Compilation on the Elemental Laws of the Wind.’

The Elemental Laws of the Wind had the most types of profound mysteries, nine in total. They were the ‘Essence of the Wind’, ‘Doppleganger’, ‘Sound Waves’, ‘Music’, ‘Windwalking’, ‘Spatial Wind’, ‘Dimensional’, ‘Fast’, and ‘Slow’; nine profound mysteries.

Although there were nine, when different experts used them, they would produce effects of different power.

In addition, all profound mysteries of the Elemental Laws were fusable. Any two of them could fuse. Any three of them could fuse…and different fusions would create different types of marvelous, powerful attacks.

“So that’s what the Spatial Wind is all about.” Linley’s eyes shone as he read.

“Dimensional. This is the most powerful physical attack type profound mystery of the Laws of the Wind.” Seeing the description of the ‘Dimensional’ profound mysteries, he couldn’t help but feel stunned.

A long time later…

“Huh?” Linley glanced at his surroundings, puzzled. “How come its dark now?”

“Boss. It’s night.” Bebe and Delia both began to laugh. “You’ve been reading for half a day.”

Linley raised his head, and saw that in the sky, there was indeed a sliver of a knife-thin Violet Moon.

“Haha…” Linley couldn’t help but begin to laugh as well. “This book really is good. Although reading it hasn’t helped me gain any insights at all into the Elemental Laws, at least its given me a general idea.” Linley understood that in the end, insights depended on one’s self.

“I can’t read it, I can’t keep reading it.” Linley said with a sigh. “I haven’t even completed mastering the profound mysteries of the Laws that I have currently gained insights into. I can’t be hasty.”

Actually, the profound mysteries of the Laws weren’t so simple.

Reading this was one thing, but if one truly wanted to attempt to gain insights in accordance with it, perhaps one would even be able to make any headway at all. For example, it might say that the ‘Worldwalker’ ability required one to become completely merged into the earth elemental essences of the world…but how would you do that? There was no way to use words to describe such a thing. This was a form of insight that one might have into the Laws!

The next morning, Linley’s team headed to Redbud Castle.

“Before heading to the Indigo Prefecture, we at least have to gain some basic information regarding the geography of the Infernal Realm. Only then will we be able to work out a pathway.” Linley currently only knew that the Infernal Realm had five enormous, virtually endless continents, as well as the Starmist Sea and the Chaotic Sea.

To get to the Indigo Prefecture of the Bloodridge Continent…

Linley only knew that they had to first leave the Redbud Continent, then pass through the vast Starmist Sea before finally reaching the shores of the Bloodridge Continent.

Within the main hall on the first floor of Redbud Castle, Linley’s group hadn’t noticed any book selling counters last time. They first went to ask some of the customer service representatives, from whom they learned that actually…Redbud Castle had items for sale in more places than just the counters.

There were some standalone rooms as well.

The books were placed in a standalone room at the sides of the main hall. Linley’s team went into the room. There were very few people who were here looking at books.

“So many books!” Bebe sighed in amazement as he looked at the books.

“Search carefully. Let’s find information regarding the geography of the entire Infernal Realm.” Linley said.

The three began to carefully search. There were quite a few books that described the geography of the Infernal Realm. Some focused on describing the Nightblaze Prefecture, while others described the massive Redbud Continent. But as for describing the entire Infernal Realm, Linley found only a single book, which was just a simple atlas-type book.

What Linley needed wasn’t just a map; it was something which would describe the threats and the risky areas of the Infernal Realm.

After all, the three of them weren’t all that powerful yet. If they were to fall into a dangerous area, it would be disastrous. It was best to learn of these things beforehand.

“Linley, Bebe, come over and take a look.” Delia called.

Linley and Bebe immediately walked over. Currently, Delia was holding a dark red book that was five or six centimeters thick. On the cover of the book were four words: “Infernal Realm, General Summary”. Bebe pursed his lips. “A thin book like that? This book that I have which only describes the Nightblaze Prefecture is as thick.”

How vast was the Infernal Realm?

To describe it in detail, even ten books wouldn’t be enough, much less one.

“A book of this thickness isn’t bad. Most likely, it won’t just be a simple map collection.” Linley laughed as he accepted the book.

Flipping through it, it was indeed much the same as Linley had imagined.

“This is pretty much it. Although the book doesn’t have many descriptions, at least it has a general introduction to general geography and environment of the five continents, two seas, and 108 prefectures of the Infernal Realm. It even describes each of the ten or so cities in each prefecture, as well as some dangerous areas and information about them.”

The Infernal Realm was simply too vast.

If it took two or three pages to discuss a prefecture, then the 108 prefectures combined would require nearly three hundred pages.

In addition, the pages of this book were quite long. It was an unusual book; even if it was burned or drenched, it wouldn’t be damaged. After all, this wasn’t that sort of frail material which existed in the material realm. However, every single page was only slightly thicker than the pages in the material realms.

And so, a fairly simple introduction to the Infernal Realm required a book that was five or six centimeters thick.

If it was the type which went into great detail, it would require several hundred books of the same thickness.

“How much is this” Linley glanced at the nearby, violet-robed attendant.

The attendant walked over and glanced at it, then laughed and said, “A hundred inkstones.”

Linley immediately handed over a hundred inkstones. To Linley’s team, currently in possession of over a hundred million inkstones, this was nothing. Only, Linley’s team also understood…that their networth actually wasn’t that much.

After all, a single Deathgod Golem was worth a hundred million.

Some higher level metallic lifeforms were also worth more than a hundred million, and it was normal for some of the nicer houses within the city to cost billions.

A hundred million?

Well, at least for an ordinary life, it was enough.

“Hey, why haven’t I found any books regarding descriptions of the profound mysteries of the Laws?” Linley asked the attendant.

“Those books are a bit more expensive. They are held within the second hall. Each of them cost several thousand inkstones, and the better ones cost more than ten thousand.” The attendant said. “And these types of basic, elementary books that only have common knowledge within are fairly cheap.”

They left Redbud Castle. Linley’s team selected a nearby restaurant. This time, Linley’s team selected dishes worth roughly a thousand inkstones; this could be considered a slight extravagance.

While they were in the restaurant, Linley continued to flip through the geography book.

“Linley, have you made up your mind regarding our path?” Delia asked.

Linley closed the book, then nodded slightly. “Bloodridge Continent. This is the easternmost continent of the entire Infernal Realm. Right now, we are in the Redbud Continent, which is in the north. To reach the Bloodridge Continent, we must first head to a port city in the Rainbow Prefecture. Of the ten cities of the Rainbow Prefecture, Bluemaple City is nearest to the Starmist Seas. We should head to Bluemaple City first!”

“According to what the books describe, there are quite a few groups that will go from Bluemaple City to the Bloodridge Continent.” Linley said. “Only, the distance from our Royalwing City of the Nightblaze Prefecture to the Bluemaple City of the Rainbow Prefecture is roughly four billion kilometers!”

It was common for prefectures to have a circumference of a billion kilometers.

For the distance from Royalwing City of the Nightblaze Prefecture to the ports of Bluemaple City of the Rainbow Prefecture was within his expectations.

“Four billion kilometers.” Bebe stared. “That’s way too far. It will take forever to get to Bluemaple City, and it will probably be very dangerous.”

Linley laughed. “What are you worried about? We don’t have to go alone. After eating, let’s head to the Fiend Castle. We’ll take on an escort mission from Royalwing City to Bluemaple City. Wouldn’t we then easily reach Bluemaple City?”

Generally speaking, escort missions would have quite a few Fiends.

If Linley’s team joined one, their journey would naturally be much safer. Even if they encountered any dangers, with an entire group of Fiends present, the situation would be much easier to deal with.

“Take on a mission? I haven’t ever taken on a formal mission before.” Bebe was somewhat excited.

“Sirs, the ‘Goldscale Silkthin Fish’ you ordered is ready.” A waiter carried over a platter that was gleaming with a golden light. This beautiful, gaudy delicacy was placed upon the table.

Linley laughed, “Bebe, stop thinking about the mission. First eat, then talk. You ordered this fish, and it cost three hundred inkstones. Let’s taste it. How is it?”

After eating, Linley’s group headed to the Fiend Castle. The receptionist at the main hall of the first floor, their old friend Yuna, knew why they had come. Laughing, she pointed at Linley. “Mission acceptances are on the next floor up. One Star Fiends to Three Star Fiends take missions at the second floor, while Four Star Fiends to Six Star Fiends take on missions on the third floor.”

The second floor of the Fiend Castle. The location for One Star Fiends to accept missions. A row of rooms. Linley’s group walked into one of them.

“Speak. What sort of mission do you want?” A youth who was seated in the meditative stance on the ground said calmly.

“Escort mission, from Royalwing City to Bluemaple City of the Rainbow Prefecture.” Linley said. “Ideally, a two star mission.” Linley’s group all consisted of One Star Fiends. They could at most take on two star missions. Upon completing a two star mission, they would naturally become Two Star Fiends.

The youth nodded slightly. After closing his eyes for a moment, he then waved his hand. A scroll appeared in his hands, which he flipped open and began to read. “Escort missions from Royalwing City to Bluemaple City of the Rainbow Prefecture. There’s ten in total, three of which are two star. Take a look.”

As he spoke, he handed the scroll to Linley.

After taking a quick look, Linley came to a decision. “The two star mission that begins in twenty days.” The reason why Linley selected this one was because there were many people who had already signed up to participate in this escort mission, including the recruiting of a hundred Two Star Fiends!


Empires rise and fall on the Yulan Continent. Saints, immortal beings of unimaginable power, battle using spells and swords, leaving swathes of destruction in their wake. Magical beasts rule the mountains, where the brave – or the foolish – go to test their strength. Even the mighty can fall, feasted on by those stronger. The strong live like royalty; the weak strive to survive another day.

This is the world which Linley is born into. Raised in the small town of Wushan, Linley is a scion of the Baruch clan, the clan of the once-legendary Dragonblood Warriors. Their fame once shook the world, but the clan is now so decrepit that even the heirlooms of the clan have been sold off. Tasked with reclaiming the lost glory of his clan, Linley will go through countless trials and tribulations, making powerful friends but also deadly enemies.

Come witness a new legend in the making. The legend of Linley Baruch.
