Sofia and Alith looked at each other.
“Sounds about right,” Alith finally whispered with a chuckle.
“Yeah, same as usual, but at least we got a warning this time,” Sofia agreed, giving a sign for Pareth to proceed.
Pareth shrunk his size as much as possible to be a bit less visible, and ventured out, carefully avoiding to bump into anything or to step on the piles of m...

“Uh? It’s just my usual stuff? Though the ‘cape’ is new, I guess, but I’m not going to not wear a divine item,...
2025-01-07 17:00:14 +0000 UTC View PostErredis brought everyone to the dark side of the moon.
The hidden moon was right there. Much smaller and not so far away compared to the planet. It looked just like the regular moon, at first glance, unnaturally so.
“Is that it?” Alith asked, looking up, “It doesn’t look as dangerous as you said it was… Wait, no…”
“It’s the same,” Sofia said, turning toward...
2025-01-06 17:00:16 +0000 UTC View PostMore lightning formed around Sofia, the bolt in her hand grew larger. She was not trying to do anything, but the sight of Pareth and Alith had triggered something. She needed to attack, to fight, and with a lack of enemies in sight, she instinctively turned to the other targets. She had the imperious need to destroy and kill, to massacre and devour. The divine lightning in her veins was steadil...
2025-01-03 18:09:06 +0000 UTC View Post“Are you really sure this is fine?” Sofia asked Alith, her gaze switching from her to the blinding angel bolt silently pulsating in her hand.
Alith crossed her arms in front of her chest, “You really underestimate Dopple, Sof. I’d bet I’m better protected than you are.”
“Ahah… Can’t be helped, I haven’t seen you fight in forever, so…”
“Well let’s no...

Erredis sat down on one of her workshop’s tables, “I would take Odalite blood without even thinking if it were me, but you shouldn't let that influence you,” she told Sofia.
“So you do know about them? Or is the prospect of a new crafting material just that enticing?” Sofia asked.
“Both? Both. There isn’t much I know about the Odalites, that goes for pretty mu...
2024-12-16 16:58:45 +0000 UTC View PostHi, so quick news, I got my new eye meds yesterday, and huh, turns out the ophthalmologist wasn't lying when he said it's going to hurt a lot. So I wasn't able to write as I was struggling to even open my eyes yesterday. Good news is, second day of treatment is already more bearable, so this shouldn't be a perpetual world of pain (and that's good, because this is a 6 months treatment). Anyway, ...
2024-12-14 11:13:37 +0000 UTC View PostSofia played around with the flames for about a minute, noticing that what it burned and what it didn’t was pretty inconsistent, until she started to feel a strange pull, as if the essence cores in her chest were being held back by something.
The flames started to weaken and sputter.
“Running out of energy?” Alith asked.
“I have no idea. Maybe the energy of the divine ...
2024-12-12 17:00:15 +0000 UTC View PostAs if she had been doused in oil beforehand, Sofia immediately burst up in flames. The fire was violent and quite strong, but it seemed content to envelope Sofia’s body, not spreading anywhere else.
“Sofia… You good?” Alith asked, only mildly worried.
Sofia observed her hands through the flames, waving them around and watching how the fire reacted. “I am, yes. Doesn’t hu...
2024-12-11 17:00:15 +0000 UTC View PostSofia was in the middle of the swamp, away from her city foundations and levelling pit, which were closer to the southern coast. She had dried up a large section here just by sparring with Saria with a piercing bolt as her sword. Here the swamp plants had died and the mud was dry and full of cracks. Standing there, Pareth and Bookie were waiting next to Sofia. Pareth seemed to actually be the o...
2024-12-10 17:00:19 +0000 UTC View PostSofia glanced at the evolution list for summon blood and she could barely believe her eyes.
Oh my fucking… Is this real?
Who would… How?
Why?!

Sofia and Speed chatted for about another hour before they left his divine domain and he carried her back to the swamp, where Saria began asking Sofia a thousand questions about the ‘date’ which had lasted almost a full day. Meanwhile Pareth was away with Bookie and the plant mage skeleton in the nearby Spirit forest in search of some plant, on Alith’s request.
When Saria finally ga...
2024-12-07 17:00:12 +0000 UTC View PostForeign memories crept up in Sofia’s mind like a waking dream. She was in someone else’s body, looking through their eyes, but it was confuse, overwhelming. She understood nothing of what she saw, until, all of a sudden, it calmed down.
Sitting naked in the dirt, in the middle of nowhere, the person in the memories laughed, looking up at the blue sky.

No chapter tomorrow, sorry, had to get an ophthalmologist appointment asap because my eyes are acting up again, and since it's quite far away I'll hardly have any time to write. Friday and Saturday chapters should come as usual though, unless I'm told I'm forbidden from looking at screens or something.
Happy reading! (｀• ω •´)b

The date half of their arrangement being over, Sofia and Speed ended up outside at the top of the volcano the lodge was built under, sitting on the ledge of the volcano at an arm’s length from each other, they admired the sunrise.
“Time for the main course?” Sofia asked with a smirk.
“I thought you said you were full?”
“I always have some extra space for some...

As you can guess I managed to reunite with Saria later, that was only like three years ago though. Lots of stuff happened in between,” Sofia finished her story as she ate the last bit of her second plate of meat.
“You really just stabbed the guy like that? No hesitation, nothing?” Speed asked, surprised...
2024-12-02 17:00:17 +0000 UTC View Post“You really taught yourself all that only with the things in your domain?” Sofia asked.
“Yes. The previous Speed had been orchestrating this for his successor, I believe. I still have no idea why he would have ended himself, but things were prepared for me to have an easy start, no doubt. After going through the entire bookshelf it was only a matter of time before I grew bored of th...
2024-11-30 17:00:13 +0000 UTC View PostAnother masked Avian quickly showed up to lead Speed and Sofia to a table in another room, and Sofia lost sight of the person who looked an awful lot like one of Richard’s ‘spare bodies’.
There were exquisite sculptures and paintings exposed everywhere, which made the restaurant feel almost like some kind of museum, and Sofia couldn’t help but feel like she was a bit out of place....
2024-11-29 17:00:22 +0000 UTC View PostSofia took a well-deserved break from her painstaking leveling process to prepare for her ‘date’ with Speed. She was at a bit of a loss at first, not really knowing how she should even prepare, but thankfully Saria was there to help get her Sister dressed up properly and not like a bone-maniac, picking the best-looking robe and accessories out of the bunch that Sofia had accumulated in her ...
2024-11-28 17:00:12 +0000 UTC View Post“Alright, I’m going in,” Sofia told Bookie and Pareth, “Make sure that the midenicite slab is slotted correctly and bury it all well.”
“You can trust Engineer skeleton!” Bookie proudly answered, “and we won’t let anyone come close!”
“I’m in safe hands then. See you in a bit,” Sofia finished, jumping into the mithril box at the bottom of the pit.

2024-11-27 17:00:19 +0000 UTC View PostAbout half an hour after Speed left, Saria fell from the sky and landed in the middle of the swamp like a cannonball, “HELLO EVERYONE!” She looked around, seeing Sofia currently sculpting large bone blocks, and Pareth a bit further away busy collecting swamp plants into pots. “Wait… It’s just you two?”
“Who else? Alith will come with Remia a bit later, and Bookie should be b...

2024-11-25 17:00:16 +0000 UTC View PostSofia and the Dragon disappeared from the void, and a lifeless skeleton holding a rotting bone book appeared in their place.
Commendable foolishness. The Lord said to the lifeless pile of bones. He waved a finger: Bookie was restored to his pristine original book form and Pareth’s dead mana heart surged with mana once again.
The skeletons disappeared.

Sofia opened her eyes in the middle of nowhere. She was standing on nothing, perhaps falling, and everything was pitch black, but she could move, her senses were all there.
Until another figure appeared from the nothingness, and suddenly Sofia was stuck in place, having a hard time to even think.

“We were tricked from the beginning! First you, then me. Tricked by the rules into not thinking like real Apostles of Sorrow!”

The embroideries were elegant and simple, their thin golden threads drawing a repeating pattern out of Sorrow’s rune that covered almost the entire shrouds, with a margin the width of a hand from the borders, which were themselves thinly decora...
