Melody of Mana Chapter 299 Homeward
“I cannot believe you left me here with no way to contact you and no way to get out!” I yelled at Justin as soon as he reappeared.“I was gone for five minutes, why are all these alarms going off?” he replied with equal frustration.“The kids arrived, followed closely by 'something' ...
Machinist of Mana Chapter 13 Trains
Family trips for me had always been the same on Earth. The insanity, the trips back and forth to make sure everything was ready, the final trip to the bathroom my father invariably took once everyone else was in the car, and me, sitting there once I was ready bored. I was happy to see that this trad...
Elevation of Mana Chapter 84 Meeting
It would have been a struggle to get everything to Atal's palace, but I had magic and lifting things was for others now. People gave me quite a lot of odd looks at the bundle of floating spears and the tool tied to my back as I picked my way through the streets, but it wasn't the oddest thin...
Chapter 298 Atrium Battle
OmosOur flight to the ruin was blessedly short, shields and trees covering our escape from the monster we'd clearly underestimated. Even so as I ran beside my friends I could hear it smashing into the trees behind us, and hear the crash as it sent jets of water slamming into them.“We need a pl...
Elevation of Mana Chapter 83 Weapons for a Monster
As Atie and Isha finished their stories I rose. I was numb, cold. How many of the people I knew were dead? My parents? Probably, Larus? Ninden? I didn't know if they were gone or not. Perhaps some would find me, perhaps not.“Ida, show these to where they can sleep please, I have work to do.”...
Melody of Mana Chapter 297 Last Hurdle
IllaThis little village, Eratol, was really quite pleasant to look at. It wasn't a bustling city, or an ancient monument by any standards, but it was quaint, homey. I'd never lived in any of the villages back home, but I'd passed through from time to time, and it rather reminded me of th...
Machinist of Mana Chapter 12 Forwards Once More
There were some things in this life that I never tired of, and one of those was spending time with grandpa. He was endlessly excitable, loved making things, and generally treated me less like a small child. The last was so important that it was painful as time went on and I had to relive education u...
Elevation of Mana Chapter 82 End of Elayatol
IshaI laid back, thinking of what was soon to come. As the years had passed I'd kept an eye on Elian's mother, waiting for the day when she would split, when I could see my friend once more. Soon, it would be soon; already were white hairs starting to form, just a few, but enough for her to ...
Melody of Mana Chapter 296 Return to Eratol
I was all smiles as I watched the kids approach the little village I'd gone to so long ago. Those folks I knew were good, and as long as at least one of them revealed that they were mine there shouldn't be any problems. With that solved I could go to more important work, preparing the way.Th...
Elevation of Mana Chapter 81 Crimson
I had a lead, but a lead was not an answer. That crystal was the thing I needed, just the thing, and if I could get it right, and make it work like I wanted it to... Well the possibilities were nearly endless weren't they?Before I could go forward with that plan though I had a number of problems...
Machinist of Mana Chapter 11 Six Years Later
There was a ringing hiss as steel slid along steel and time seemed to slow. I angled my weapon turning my hand trying to close the line of attack as the point of the other pushed forward, ramming into my chest. As the blow landed I felt my own connect, burying itself in the neck of my opponent.“A ...
Melody of Mana Chapter 295 Peeping
LenaDays passed as we made our way deeper and deeper into the interior of the elven lands. For the most part we were avoiding settlements since our escort had left us, didn't want to get caught up and held in one again. It was slow going, passing through the deep forests and back-roads, but we p...
December
First allow me to begin with an apology. I've been quite out of sorts for the past week do to personal reasons and am quite behind on where I'd like to be when it comes to chapters. I'm going to try and make some of that up over the weekend and next week.As for next month, while I genera...
Chapter 81 Conductor
Jina had all the bedside manner of a bag of angry bees, and her poor victim was crying by the time it was through. I felt bad for the flirtatious girl, who'd come in hoping to get a tattoo and was leaving in incredible pain.“You could have numbed her,” I pointed out after Sina found her way ...
Melody of Mana Chapter 294 Sharing and Caring
'Okay,' I thought to myself. 'When exactly did this happen? How exactly? Why? What had I missed?'One hour, they couldn't have had more than one hour out of my sight and suddenly Omos is hanging over little Lena like he wants to drag her off to the nearest closet for some 'alo...
Machinist of Mana Chapter 10 Goblin Physician
Dr. Anton Parkov“Extra, extra, read all about it, circus monsters escape, panic as wild beasts allowed to roam the street!” a boy shouted above me, his voice filtering down through the sewer grate.Well, that seemed a bit much. Certainly I'd freed myself and some of my fellows, and perhaps I&...
Elevation of Mana Chapter 80 Tattoos
Jina was giving me the quick and dirty, more like an information dump than formal training. I was being shown everything precisely once, and then allowed to ask questions. Either she didn't care if I actually got it, or she was hoping I didn't. Though with my memory I could just replay all o...
Melody of Mana Chapter 293 Suspicions and Frustrations
LenaWe'd only been settled into our room for a few hours when someone came by. The maid's eyes flicked to the corners here and there, as if she was looking for something, a brief smile flashing across her face when she realized I was watching her. Odd, very odd.I was grateful for the hot bat...
Machinist of Mana Chapter 9 Circus
“Come one, come all! See the greatest show in the world! We have beasts from faraway lands, monsters to thrill and terrify and magics the likes off which you've never seen! Step right up this way folks, right here for thrills and wonders galore!” the man announced before the series of tents,...
Elevation of Mana Chapter 79 Magical Materials
Ida was working out wonderfully. I'd put her onto the fabric project I'd given up on a couple of years ago, the work being just a bit out of my wheelhouse. Perhaps she'd have better luck with it, and if nothing else I might get a bit more material to work with from her. My own attempts h...
Machinist of Mana Chapter 8 Serious Talks
My mother found me once more in the sword training room, sitting quietly and looking at the many different medals. I'd been coming here when I could over the past month or so, though with how all the staff were keeping an eye on me that was getting to be a pain.Of note was that whenever I disapp...
Machinist of Mana Chapter 7 Wander
I had a whole new house, and new place to explore, oh the hours of fun. Well, maybe an hour before mother realized I was missing and sent up an alarm to all staff and everyone else, but some time to look around at least. It was almost like nobody wanted me wandering about on my own, an idea which I ...
Machinist of Mana Chapter 6 Arrival
It had been a long, long trip, but I'd finally managed to get away from my mother and her friends. That didn't mean I was alone of course, rather that I was now in the care of my omnipresent nanny, and her very unhappy daughter. I honestly couldn't blame little Kaylee, this trip had been...
Chapter 292 Subtle Advice
AlanaI followed the kids in, but I was more than a bit worried. These people's needs weren't the children's, and what the children wanted was certainly not what the protectors of this city did. At minimum I anticipated that they'd try to delay my students so they might extract some e...
Chapter 291 City
Rodrick PenumbraMoving next to Veska I reached for her hand, giving it a light squeeze.“First live one we've seen in days,” I commented as I looked down at the dead crab. It was true, but the thing was bigger than I'd expected.“Yeah, the numbers are definitely thinning out the further ...
Elevation of Mana Chapter 78 Ida
IdaI prepared to tell my story, one I'd already told many times. It wasn't so much that I minded, just that it was personal. Even then, I sort of wanted this Justin to know. He was a bit odd, but seemed to be genuinely kind, at least so far, and I didn't want him to think badly of me.“...
Machinist of Mana Chapter 5 Setting Off
I had once posited that my mother hated 'The Season' and now I knew that that was not only true, but that I fervently agreed. Everyone had been in an absolute state for the past week, things being packed, things being left, what went where, when, and how. She as the woman of the house was be...
Chapter 290 Children Change
Illa“Battle mages,” I declared as we looked over the dead crabs. “At least one, probably more than one by the destruction.”“But they didn't come to say anything to us?” Omos asked, I could only shrug in response.“Smells good though,” Amara commented. I hated to agree with her, bu...
Machinist of Mana Chapter 4 Grandparents
My grandmother and I sat across from each other at the small table, engaged in her game. Upon the table between us there was a small piece of cake, beside it two small forks. The game went thus, first she would take a small bite, only large enough to fit on the fork, then I would repeat the process....
Elevation of Mana Chapter 77 Delivery
Getting all the scrap Atal had made from my work together and beginning to melt it down had been a beast of a chore. I was sad to see my work broken, but even sadder to hear that I'd be giving up more of it soon. He'd demanded me to make him another of the ball throwers, and since I'd pr...
