Important update

This may come as bad news to some, Webnovel offered me another contract not that long ago and this time I decided to accept it. I will leave up to chapter 100 on here, but have removed the other chapters and I don’t know if the story will be officially removed from here or what. Chapter 100 is now considered …

Chapter 100: The lonely road (2)

Brock stood atop the southern walls and looked out over the enormous mass of barbarians who were encamped just within sight. They were a safe distance from the weapons of war on the walls and the more powerful magic spells that could cause devastation on the battlefield. He had been asked to help in overseeing the defense for the Northern …

Chapter 99: The lonely road (1)

A few days had passed since Aleks and his group fought against the Lariel, the Fallen Angel. She had recovered after submitting to Aleks’s authority, being put under his dominion. This was not a simple matter, but a serious commitment. An oath of fealty given by an Angel was not something which could easily be dismissed. For Lariel, who was …

Chapter 98: Fallen angel (3)

While Nelay and Lenia had already retreated well out of range of the volcanic attack, Aleks rumbled closer. His ‘Soul Tendrils’ which had lifted him off the ground were unaffected by the effects of the spell and moved Aleks forward with serpentine movements. The fallen angel was struggling once more with the curse that afflicted her and was screaming while …

Chapter 97: Fallen angel (2)

Those poor adventurer’s who were now frozen in death, their faces an expression of the terror they felt before their souls were devoured, suddenly began to come to life. Initially it was an awkward movement, like puppets on a string, but their movements soon became fluid not any different from when they were still alive. Aleks watched in satisfaction, “Do …

Chapter 96: Fallen angel (1)

A shrill scream pierced through the valley for miles. The echoing sound of the scream could easily deafen a weaker being and cause all manner of status ailments. However, it didn’t affect Aleks much, only causing him to become wary. This was the voice of an angel, which was a being to fear. He still remembered her visage as she …

Chapter 95: Into the mist (3)

Aleks shuddered. The voice was not the one he remembered. He now knew that in his original lifetime, there was a voice that had guided him. Thinking it was inspiration, he allowed it to lead him on. His only goal had been to complete the tower and to reach the heavens above. Was it to replace god? Of course not, …

Chapter 94: Into the mist (2)

As Aleks stared into the mist, he could see almost a wisp of shapes and forms. There were images that felt familiar and yet foreign at the same time. He could hear laughter, and the cries of agony and pain. Even more than anything else, he was overcome with a yearning that he felt deep within his soul. It cried …

Chapter 93: Into the mist (1)

Several armies had converged on the Steppes, these were hardened soldiers and elites of the expeditionary forces. After weeks of trudging along the Steppes to exterminate any local natives they found, the expeditions had finally arrived at the location where a large town with a citadel was under rapid construction. With the aid of magic and talented engineers and laborers, …

Chapter 92: Grobak’s true might (3)

The roar of a ferocious dragon rocked the Steppes far below where it flew. It was the dark of night where shadows flickered among the campfires, and it would be impossible to make out the darkened scales of a dragon’s underbelly. Only the sound of its roar made known its presence, the presence of a fearsome predator out hunting its …
