Chapter 264
He kept his back toward the assassin. He did so for good reason though. He was purposely luring the man to attack. Perhaps he would think that Julius would have his guard down and make some mistake.Sadly, he didn’t fall for it and kept his distance.“So you’re saying that the Conclave is not wo...
Chapter 263
Julius was honestly surprised by how easily they allowed him to bombard them with attacks. He didn’t know what they were thinking, but only one of them created a barrier to stop his attacks.Maybe they thought that since the constructs that resembled shotgun shells were quite small, they didn’t n...
Chapter 262
Stephanie POVShe was a bit taken aback by the drastic change in Julius’s attitude. It wasn’t anything like the smiley and slightly meek boy she had gotten to know during this past week. Instead, she was presented with a boy who exuded confidence bordering on downright arrogance.Even his posture ...
Chapter 261
Unlike most skill acquisitions, this one felt different.This time the process felt more personal and affected something on a spiritual level. His aura, which had been purposefully stifled, underwent a transformation of a sort.What had once been an unruly child throwing a temper tantrum with no rhyme...
Chapter 260
Stephanie POVShe let the fake smile slide from her face as they finished up celebrating and were getting ready to hit the sack.She was angry. More angry than she has been at one of her teammates in a while. It took her using her focus skill to calm her emotions.They were on a mission, so it would no...
Chapter 259
It was extraordinarily difficult to keep control of his aura during all of this chaos.He did feel the mana absorption that Beck and Stephanie had been trying to warn him about. It was a fascinating technique. If he was right, it worked so well because there was some sort of Concept backing it.He had...
Chapter 258
The caravan didn’t actually need to head into Willow’s Front as he had originally believed. In fact, they didn’t even get within the smaller walls surrounding the town. Instead, only a few wagons ended going through the inspection guards and unloading their goods. While the rest of them contin...
Chapter 257
It would seem that they weren’t the only ones who had sensed it. There was a signal to halt all of the wagons resounding throughout the caravan.All of the wagons swiftly came to a stop and as they did, everyone except for the merchants got out of the wagon. Matt’s entire team had taken their wea...
Chapter 256
After Julius talked to Rolus, he found himself sitting inside one of the wagons just as Rolus recommended he do. They had taken off from Blumand not too long ago and would be traveling to Greenwich for the next couple of weeks.The route would take them through several other towns and cities before t...
Chapter 255
Julius was completely overwhelmed. There were so many people running around that his [Spatial Perception] was running in overdrive trying to keep up, trying to inspect every person within its reach. It got so bad that he didn’t even attempt to find this Rolus person with the skill. Instead, he use...
Chapter 254
“Do you have everything you need?” Richard asked.“I think so, I made sure to pack plenty of yummy food,” he said proudly.Rebecca, who was off to the side gave him a small flick to the back of the head. “That’s not what he meant and you know it. How come all you ever think of is food or t...
Chapter 253
The next couple of weeks were spent preparing for his mission as bait.When he wasn’t practicing his new skill, he was training his aura control, which had become exponentially harder to tame after his new enhancement skill, especially when it was active.He had gotten pretty comfortable with keepin...
Chapter 252
Julius was still having a hard time controlling this newfound aura effect he was emitting. It was so bad that he wasn’t able to leave the room without feeling like he was putting other people at risk.The only way he was able to leave, was if Richard or Rebecca were with him. Only their domains wer...
Chapter 251
He looked at all of them with a worried glance.“What’s wrong?” He asked nervously, almost afraid to hear the answer.Richard, who also had a slightly anxious look must have saw his facial expression and quickly came over to Julius with a swift teleport. The man laid an arm on his shoulder and s...
Chapter 250
Skill Combination Token consumed…Julius watched in awe as the token dissolved into dust and felt a powerful feeling surge through him.It wasn’t like he was feeling it through his body either. It was like a burst of energy was funneled directly into his soul.There weren’t any options for him to...
Chapter 249
There weren't any bright lights or flashes of mana. When he selected it, one moment he had empty hands and the next he was holding a small item the size of a coin in the palm of his right hand.It was a plain token with only a weird looking sigil on one side and another similar looking sigil on t...
Chapter 248
Julius watched the creature's remnants disappear into particles of light and let out a tired sigh.That had been more difficult than he first thought when he planned to take on this Challenge Rift. He had really underestimated how dangerous it was.But in the end, he still came out on top so it wa...
Chapter 247
The big scary giant decided that it wasn’t just going to sit there and let Julius do what he wanted.Julius sensed mana converging around the giant in a powerful swirl and a second later a stone slab the size of a car zipped toward him.What? It even has long-range options too?Julius managed to side...
Chapter 246
Julius once more watched as the hundreds of bodies around him dissipated into light particles. Even the blood that he was absolutely covered in was gone like it was never there.He only had one more wave to go and made sure to check his mana before he did.He frowned when he noticed how much mana he h...
Chapter 245
Reinera POVShe screamed out as she sent out one last blast of light at the remaining golem, making sure her Concept was infused with it.Thankfully, she managed to take it out with that last attack and fell back onto her butt as she was exhausted.Tenth Wave completed… Congratulations, you have comp...
Chapter 244
Happy New Year!!! Thank you all for supporting and reading my story! It has been quite a magical year. Never in a million years would I think I would be in this position if you had asked me several months ago when I quit my job and started out writing full-time. It's wild to see how many people ...
Chapter 243
The eighth wave arrived right on time. However, he was surprised when it wasn’t another group of hobgoblins. The rift must have decided to change things up for him. In their place was something he had been praying not to show up.Something he had thought wouldn’t show up this late in the waves.Al...
Chapter 242
Seeing the fully healed hobgoblin stand back up as if nothing happened annoyed him.That wasn't fair, he was the only one who could heal like that. That was his thing and this monster was stealing it from him.He let out another breath of air. The seventh wave was proving to be the hardest wave so...
Chapter 241
Ten minutes was more than enough for him to recover all of the mana he expended.The wave wasn’t hard, it had only taken a couple of minutes and that was with him being stingy with his mana usage.However, one thing did bother him. Are all hard-difficulty challengers supposed to be able to beat ten ...
Chapter 240
He was able to tell right away that these goblins weren’t even Tier 3 yet. It seemed that all of them were around Tier 2 and that the main threat they posed was their numbers.Not even because he was afraid they would overwhelm him, but because he believed that taking care of all of them without ex...
Chapter 239
Today was the day. After putting it off multiple times, they finally decided to enter the Challenge Rift.It had been about a week after he got [Aura Burn] and unfortunately during that time, he hadn’t found a way to merge the skills into a single skill.On the bright side, he got a few more levels ...
Chapter 238
Merry Christmas!***It surprisingly wasn’t difficult at all to get a skill. In all honesty, it was very disappointing.The monsters weren’t even that strong. Even the leader, who was the only one Julius was able to sense a Concept from, was not very extraordinary. It was about the same level as th...
Chapter 237
Richard POVRichard had taken out a folder with some documents he had to go over as he waited for Julius to finish up. The boy was probably taking his time and acclimating to his new skill.There was a large selection of monsters to choose from in this specific rift. Julius would be able to take it sl...
Chapter 236
The scaly fellow wasn’t the only one that was showing signs of aggression. There were other monsters who were waiting with tense auras. They were simply waiting to see if anyone else was going to make the first move.Thankfully, he didn’t have to wait for long for one of the monsters to get impat...
Chapter 235
Author Note: I just wanted to give you guys a heads up but sadly there won't be a chapter tomorrow. At the time this goes up I will be on a week-long family trip but I still managed to get enough chapters ahead that I could give you five chapters this week. Like always, I appreciate your support...
