“Haha!” Dave stood from his chair and clapped. “I knew I was right to bet on Derek. Whether or not he decides to join me, at least he kept his word. So, Sereph, what do you think of my decision to rely on that man now?”
“It seems that I was too quick to judge, Master Davenresh,” the elf replied with a bow. “As usual, you are correct.”

The blades disappeared from Derek’s sight, and as they did, so too did the heat on the back of his neck and the sword that was being driven in. He also saw a telltale bright light flash, indicating that someone had been saved by the system. That someone was obviously Kelvin.

“Very well,” Darvin replied. After that, he raised his arms in front of him, and a small glowing ball started to form between his palms. “Amelia, Kelvin, Briya, Cuthos, Xephos… do you freely give a portion of your stored power as council members to smite this foe of the system?”
“Do it!” Briya yelled. “Just kill him!”<...

“Ugh!” Jace quickly glanced at the list of Champions, only to see that Derek had already taken out Holcom. “Come on!” he yelled at a group of invaders who were attacking him. “Harder!

“You seem awfully fond of Jace,” Derek said. “At least… you seem more interested in him than I’ve seen you before—other than your interest in Brandi, of course.”

Inside the room of the defeated Chosen, it was so silent that one could hear a pin drop. Even though the screen that they were all watching the fight on had gone dark, nobody could peel their eyes away from it. Even the sullen and sulky Vendra was staring at it with a look of astonishment.

The teleporter that Holcom had set up before he’d gone out to find the Champions buzzed. Then a figure materialized. The figure took a step off the platform and winced. The guards stationed there to receive any Champions that Holcom sent back rushed forward to help the new arrival.

A light flashed before Edgar, and he blinked his eyes. Confused, he held his hands out in front of him, then looked down. “I’m… healed?” he muttered to himself. “What…” he started as he looked around, but stopped as soon as he noticed something.

“What!?” Derek half-yelled. “But I’ve been looking for him for so long! And I found Amelia, but she ran away from me.”
“Amelia… ran?” Jakis looked taken aback for a moment, then shrugged it off. “Doesn’t matter. She’s too cautious.” He then looked between Derek and Edgar. “Whichever of you is going to fight, hurry up.” 2025-06-26 23:43:00 +0000 UTC View Post

Amelia floated extremely high up and far away from the city where she had defeated the Guardian. Now that she was alone and safe, she had some time to think about everything. She hadn’t become one of, if not the strongest, people in the entire system by acting rashly. She always put some thought into her actions, and she had developed some kind of sixth sens...

“Dammit…” Derek muttered as he floated above yet another teleportation array. He’d been at it for at least half a day—moving from array to array in Indria—yet he hadn’t found any clues as to where Jakis could be. From there, he turned to the telltale glow that indicated another protection barrier and lunged towards it using Powerstride.

“Here are four communication range boosters,” Holcom said to Amelia as he held out four spike-looking rods with a flashing blue light on the top of them. “They are made to absorb energy passively as soon as you place them, so just stick them in the ground or in a tree—somewhere that people and monsters won’t find them—then you can just leave the...
