Arc | Chapter. 55: The Arcane

Arc | Chapter. 54: Malz’s Offer
Chapter. 54: Malz’s OfferIt was a shame. A shame that I hadn’t been able to use my SS Tier skill, even casting it out loud made me happy — well if I was honest I felt like I had to vocalize each and every word or it wouldn’t come. It was… magical. Every syllable triggered my mana to res...

Arc | Chapter. 52: Meeting at the Maw

Arc | Chapter. 46: Forgotten Places
Chapter. 46: Forgotten PlacesI didn’t know what I expected, that was for certain. Somehow, I had faith that Regis wouldn’t just expose his identity like that. Could I have tried to gaslight the Guildmaster? Probably. But I also felt like it would’ve made things a lot more suspicious and weird ...

Arc | Chapter. 32: Saviorship
Chapter. 32: SaviorshipOn our way home, all the way to going to sleep, Ceylon had been behaving a bit weirdly. Which made me question whether it had been… weird to sculpt her. I mean, I wasn’t exactly thinking about it, but in retrospect it was something that I should’ve asked for permission f...
