Short break/Delay notice
Greetings. I'm sure you've noticed, I'm late yet again. This time I have a good reason - outside of potential untreated mental problem that I'm currently in the process of getting diagnosed. This week my family receives the visit of a cousin I've only met once in my life, when I ...
Chapter 180 : Rookies' first Villain
Sarah ducked beneath the demented AI's fist before answering in kind with a kick to his chest, her foot brightly shining with light as it pushed him back. Meanwhile, Glicer formed a wall of pink fire to catch the bullets flying her way from the turrets on the android's shoulders. Scareowl in...

Chapter 178 : Rookies at the scene
Sarah, in her white Hero trainee bodysuit, felt a bit queasy. She wasn't the only one; this was her group's first time on an actual crime scene, and that was plain to see.They'd been going on patrols in the streets for a week now, each time accompanied and overseen by a senior Hero, both...
Chapter 177 : HardCored discourse
HardCored - ChatroomMagicIsTragic: Yo, did everyone catch the opening of Silhouette's thing?TechnoGogo: The Penumbral Palace? Not live, but I did watch the videos afterward. I didn't expect to see Decanov, nor for him to be happy for once.KillLaKrill: You call that happy?TechnoGogo: By his s...

Chapter 175 : A breath of fresh air
G433 was unhappy.No, scratch that. G433 WAS ABSOLUTELY LIVID.The artificial gestalt struggled in his bounds, the screen of the cubic computer that served as his body flashed horrible things as the sound of clicking chains echoed.In the back of the armored truck where he seethed in silence after bein...

Chapter 174 : The Shepherd's flock
Standing on a dilapidated building not too far from Mother Greenheld's orphanage, a robed figure watched the ongoing carnage. Cloaked in tan and dirtied silk, a wooden mask covered the figure's face, hiding their identity. Though with a close look, their loyalty was easy to decipher, a blue ...
Chapter 173 : Attack on the orphanage
Knowing some kind of emergency was happening back at the Shadow Den tempted James to just rush off and head down to the depths. However, he knew better.

Chapter 172 : Questions and answers
"Again, I will not elaborate on my place of birth.""But-""If you insist any further I will have you removed from the conference."The reporter who had been trying to get James to tell everything about his origins closed her mouth. It had been a little over fifteen minutes now ...
Chapter 171 : Among the crowd
Among those gathered for the Penumbral Palace's opening day was a shifty figure, covered from head to toe in baggy clothes, with a hood, a bandana, and a cap further hiding away their identity. They had been idly playing with something in their hoodie's front pouch during Silhouette's en...
Chapter 170 : Opening day
Quite the crowd had amassed for the event of the day. A shop's opening day wouldn't usually be this popular. Even if a good ad campaign could bring in the same numbers, people wouldn't be this invested in it as they were now. No, the reason why quite a substantial part of those gathered ...

Chapter 169 : Ready for the big day
With no further incidents, the opening day date grew ever closer. The doctor continued working on his machinery, improving the efficiency of the complete designs and refining the still flawed ones. It took three tries before the artificial infusion process was fully successful. The bonds it formed i...
Chapter 168 : Discussing possibilities
Doctor Ivan Decanov stepped towards the inert pile of black sludge that had once been two monsters attempting to kidnap him emotionlessly. He bent his back to study the mass a little closer, trying to discern traits leftover from the entities they used to be."You did quite the number on them....
Chapter 167 : Hunter and prey
When the two monstrous flesh creatures emerged from the sewer grate onto the street, they were in luck. Not only was the surface clear of pedestrians despite the sun still shining its light onto the city, but they also weren't far from their original target. While they had genuinely been ordered...
Chapter 166 : Invaders in the sewers
The black rat's snoot twitched as it sought foreign scents. Its mischief had tasked it to scout this part of the sewer tunnels near the center of their territory in the clean city, and it took this duty seriously. Doubly so since their patriarch har reprimanded them following their poor performa...

Chapter 165 : A Hero's advice
Sarah ducked beneath the metal fist flying towards her face.The Hero trainee responded to Elaimant's attack with a light-coated knee to the torso, the elementally charged attack pushing back the towering avatar of magnetically gathered scraps in the form of a humanoid body the crystalline alien ...
Chapter 164 : Demonologist's advice
James ducked below the fireball that flew right at his face."You know, this isn't exactly how I pictured these magic lessons."Mesker Duskenfer the Third, great pyromancer and demonologist, merely shrugged as another volley of burning projectiles launched, forcing James to melt and spread...
Chapter 163 : Zalcian rats
Arms crossed, James tapped his fingers nervously. It had been a handful of hours now since he'd brought his little family to the city hall for the kids' test to obtain citizenship. He and the ratlings had been separated almost immediately to be interviewed individually. While his meeting had...
Chapter 162 : Manufactured darkness
Decanov and James stood in silence for a moment after their distinguished guests left. Ultimately, it was the scientist who spoke first and ended the quietude."Do you think-""They'll try and listen in? I am unsure. They have the means and a reason to, but they have also proven trustw...

Chapter 161 : Black and Decanov
Doctor Decanov didn't have any apparent reaction when he saw James accompanied by the infamous bank manager and his celestial guardian. Not even as the pale being gracefully contorted its body in various ways whenever it passed by a place far too narrow for its large form, easily twice as tall a...
Chapter 160 : Black at Blackrose
It only took a couple of knocks for James to open the door and discover the man his neighbor had hired to handle their pest problem. He looked fairly average for someone in their thirties, though he had to admit he looked more like a farmer than an exterminator even past the first glance. Honestly, ...
