After docking her Airfish in a personalized hangar, Arika led Vahn to a location deep within the confines of the ‘Sun Palace’, the central hub of the Royal Palace Complex. She didn’t waste time trying to explain the significance of any of the structures, and, much to his surprise, Vahn noticed there were very few people living inside the massive …

Far more so than the Imperial Palace of the Hellas Empire, the palaces designed to protect the Ostian Royal Family were surrounded by a comprehensive set of barriers. With a cursory scan, Vahn was able to sense a total of thirty-nine, but, trusting his instincts, he spent the better part of an hour probing a total of 108 barriers. There …

After teaching the Third Princess how to properly use the bracelet, Vahn spent a bit of time just answering her questions and teaching her about Magic. The diorama had a time dilation of 24:1, so, even if he stayed inside for a few hours, it wouldn’t make too much of a difference. Vahn knew the majority of Mages in the …

With a bit of time to kill until he enacted his plan, Vahn spent a few hours just wandering the Capital with no particular destination in mind. He decided it was a good opportunity to take Medusa on a date, as, even in the Nasuverse, she very rarely left the Castle. The furthest she ever traveled was the nearby Castle …

Seeing a reddish-black inferno sweeping through the Arena was enough to leave even the most die-hard fans of the Coliseum in stunned silence. To many, it was like witnessing the end of the world, and, if not for the hundreds of Mages reinforcing the barrier, those closest would have been feeling more than just an oppressive aura. From within one …

Seeing Jack pick up his sword, Vahn’s momentum exploded outward as his figure vanished from view. At this point, something like a starting bell was completely pointless. The only thing that had any meaning was the clash of wills and the weight of their blows. It was either move forward or risk having his own willpower suppressed, something Jack seemed …

Ever since the arrival of the man known as the Sage Dragon Emperor, attendance at the Coliseum had declined. Though it was gradually recovering, the loss of personnel and the rumors regarding the Dark Evangel were enough to keep most people indoors. Others had already been stockpiling supplies in preparation for the coming war, so, for the first time in …

Ignoring the various complaints she received from her Governess and Maid escorts, Theo held onto Rakan’s hair like reins as she directed him towards the largest courtyard. She ignored the fact that he was already well-acquainted with the Palace’s layout, and, believing children should be more spirited, Rakan made no attempt to correct her behavior. Instead, he smiled somewhat viciously …

With three days passing since Jack’s return to the Capital, Vahn was beginning to wonder whether or not the man was going to seek him out. What he didn’t know was, despite many people calling him an idiot, Jack was an exceptionally cautious man when it came to his missions. He balanced his thirst for battle with careful planning, taking …

With the days stretching into weeks, Vahn split his time between familiarizing himself with the Akamatsuverse, making a name for himself in the Arena, helping people in need, and night lighting as Eva. All of these things sent waves throughout the Hellas Empire, but, as expected, the rumors of the ‘Dark Evangel’ appearing made other matters seem small in comparison. …
