Chapter 479: Echoing Willow
“Come on,” Alanah finally said. After that, the two of them walked the rest of the distance to the edge of the abyss—where Ryven was unable to go. It didn’t take very long before Derek and Alanah were standing at the very edge, looking down at the steep drop off.
“Whew…” Derek whistled. “That’s a long way down,” he said. 2024-09-17 23:45:01 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 478: Borrowing the Right Elf
“You?” Derek asked. “You can help us sneak through multiple encampments full of some of the entire kingdom’s strongest guards and fighters? I’m sure you hit it off with them, but I doubt they like you enough to allow you to bring a human thro...

“Follow us,” Derek said, then took the lead and slowly moved back to within sight of the edge of the danger area where all the settlements were located.
“This place doesn’t look familiar…” Ryven said once they stopped, and he was able to get a good look around. “We’re definitely not in Indria, Cydaria, or Indaria… at least...

“So… that is your home country?” Derek asked. Both he and Alanah were already wearing cloaks, covering them from head to toe to hide their identities as a human and a half-elf once they passed through into Linderis. Currently, they were still on the Vorandell side of the border, but when they wanted to, it would only take them mere momen...

As Derek and Alanah walked through the streets of Kyllar, Derek took note of how much it resembled some of the cities in Cydaria. To be exact, the city very closely resembled Wilmette—the city, which was in the closest proximity to Torith, now Searidge. It wasn’t a huge city like the capital, or a bustling business city like Savannah, but it still...

“Uh…” Derek muttered. “Is all of that going to be okay over there?” He pointed at the broken jars and materials scattered around on the ground.
“Huh?” Nick turned and looked to where Derek was pointing, then said, “How did all of that get over there?” He stared intently at the mess, then shrugged. “Should be fine.” Finally,...

“There we go,” Alanah said as she stopped in mid-air and pointed toward the shore.

“We’ve technically crossed over into Vorandell,” the siren answered.
“How do you know?” Derek asked. He looked toward the shore and squinted to see better.
“If you look closely, you can see the shape...

“Hey!” Derek said with false indignation as he took a step forward toward the man. He was, after all, playing his new role as the blunt and dumb friend. “Your sympathies? What the hell is that supposed to mean?”

“Wouldn’t it have been easier if we had brought your wyvern along?” Derek asked as he sat down on the little boat that was nothing more than a dingy that Alanah had pulled out to rest on.

“So…” Derek started. “Earlier, you mentioned that the other Void Beast may have been trying to kill and consume me.”
“Yes?” Asher tilted his head and answered.
“What kind of power boost do you think I would have provided the beast if it had been able to do so?” he asked.
“What kind of power increase?...

“You know,” Derek said to Alanah. “I think you’re right. We’ll call it quits for Void Beast hunting today.” Then he turned back to look at the Void Beast in the air in front of him. “Would you mind coming down with me and answering a few questions about the void and other things?” He asked because the beast didn’t seem too opposed to havin...

Looking up at the broken sky and into the void, Derek stared at the beast. The way it had shattered the sky and caused shards to fly at a nearly unperceivable pace automatically told him that the beast they were dealing with was one with intelligence. None that he faced, other than the ones that had this intelligence, had the ability and power to cause ...

Derek closed his eyes and felt the void building up inside him once again. With another thought, he activated his skill, and the gathered energy exploded into the sky again. Instead of changing his focus to recovering his mana this time, Derek prepared Void Call again.
Before any Void Beast made a move to break out of the void, Derek alread...

“Umm…” Alanah rubbed her chin in thought. “I’m not sure,” she finally said, after thinking for a few moments. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Void Beast so… passive.

As Derek had found out before when he was farming Void Beasts by himself, the call to draw the beasts near was near instant, but their response was not. So, once he watched the purple beam of void energy disappear and focused on regaining his mana, he let out a sigh.

Derek went over the new Achievement in front of him a few times—not really knowing what was going on. He understood that he had received an Achievement, but he had never had one that was so… odd. Finally, he decided to go over it one last time just to make sure he wasn’t missing something.

Watching Silvi as they continued to run the avian dungeon was a treat.
