Sylver had been careful not to crumple up the page any more than he initially had. There were 7 creases on it, from the way it had appeared in his fist, and another crease from when he tried to fold it into 2.

He continued staring at the page, as Faust continued pacing back and forth on his left. It was the middle of the night at t...

Without his need for eyes, there wasn’t a need for blinking.

Despite that, Sylver couldn’t tell when the exact moment of transition had occurred. It was seamless, there wasn’t a middle, just Sylver standing in the wooden building, with the boy on his right, and the next, he’s standing on top of a giant empty sp...

The bear’s sliced open body looked like someone had prepared it for a roast. It was laying on its back, its internal organs had been carefully removed, the skin had been folded out of the way, and the entire left side had been butchered to reveal the bones.

Sylver was sitting on a small wooden stool and was looking right at the creatu...

“82,” Spring said, as he gently placed the odd-shaped organ into the wooden chest.

Initially, Sylver had used a bag, but after the 50th [Gourd Gizzard] had been subdued, and its internal organ safely harvested, Sylver decided to see if he could grow himself a chest.

Admittedly it wasn’t perf...

Sylver’s journey to the heart of the swamp was annoying peaceful.

According to Ria, he had been walking for over 4 hours, with absolutely nothing to show for it. Ria used the time to continue practicing levitating and mastered it enough that Sylver decided it was a good time to introduce the idea of levitating while having someone...

Even if there wasn’t a point in doing it, Sylver sent Spring ahead anyway. The shade wouldn’t be able to get past the barrier, but at the very least he would be able to inform Sylver if there were people outside the sect.

Through Mora, Sylver at least knew they hadn’t attacked yet. If she was in pain, Sylver would know,...

As Sylver made his way towards the small piece of land Faust’s sect called home, he felt a chill run down his spine.

Not the big spine, that was currently compressed in such a way as to make it look like Sylver had a bad back, but the small one, Sylver’s “real” spine, so to speak. He continued walking as if nothing was wrong...

Sylver had seen drug dens that were tidier than the shithole these people called a “home.” It was disorganized, there was dust and grime everywhere, and the air was so heavy with the stench of decay that even Sylver’s eyes were affected by it.

Sylver followed the boy who managed to behead him up into the second floor, and w...

Minor Delay + Q & A

I pretty much wrote out the entire chapter, and after rereading through it 5 times, decided I didn't like the direction it was going. 

I've now deleted it and started over, but after some thinking, decided it would be better to write it after I've had a night to sleep on it. 

The start of arcs are always the trickiest, because of all the plot points I need to set up.

“Stop squirming,” Sylver cautioned, as he tightened his grip around the youth’s leg, and against the screaming youth’s protests, poured the remainder of the health potion’s contents over the very recently severed ankle.

Sylver’s stitches were spat out of the flesh, as it stretched and followed the bluepri...

Sylver stared up towards the sky as they walked and listened to Spring’s report as he told him about the various buildings that were on the line Edmund’s tracker had created.

He had hoped there would be something obvious, like a giant lead cube from within which a man’s shouting could be heard, or a grave with a green fla...

The area around the Schlagen mountains was divided into small districts.

At least, that’s what Sylver assumed, given the small flags that every building had on the top left of their door, and that the patrolling guards had an identical symbol on their armor.

To get to Fobur, Sylver and company walked through 4 distr...

Sylver lazily kept his hand on Mora’s lead, while he and Faust slowly walked down the road. Bravo had teleported them as close to the Schlagen mountains as he could manage and then escorted them towards the nearest road before he teleported back to Arda.

From what he had explained he could teleport home an infinite number of times...

The dinner party was largely uneventful.

Sylver invited those closest to him, got drunk, and then told them how much he loved them, and then proceeded to threaten a hypothetical foe for daring to target his people. He thought he had been careful with his language, but nevertheless, Yeva ended up having to cover Benjamin’s ear...

Sylver moved the page he was writing on out of the way and consulted Bruno’s copper sheet one last time. He turned around and Faust and Bruno’s mildly festive mood disappeared as they saw the look on Sylver’s face.

“That bad huh?” Faust asked as he put down his celebratory mug.

After Sylver had converted the stor...

As Sylver approached his house, he was informed that were 5 people with very poor control over their mana standing near the front gates. They were talking to Ging, but due to the natural barrier that their leaking mana created, Spring had no idea what was being said.

Sylver materialized on the roof of the house directly opposite...

Mora’s friend, Aleri, was a bird.

Kind of.

He was a cross between a raven, eagle, falcon, hawk, owl, bat, woodpecker, and possibly a handful of felines. He was completely black, his dark yellow beak had a slight downwards curve, his claws looked like they belonged to a cat, and he had two giant eyeballs on either side ...

Sylver flashed his guild card at the guard at the dungeon entrance, before he once again turned into vapor and flew down the path covered in glowing thread. Slinky, the enormous snake-looking chimera, left a small gap for Sylver to funnel through.

Once he was inside, and the snake had a chance to flick its tongue at him, Sylver us...

In a lot of ways, Ria, the liquid metal golem, was essentially an undead.

Not a naturally born undead, and certainly not a feral or wild one, but more in the sense that once she was given a task, she wordlessly chipped away at it until it was done.

Currently, she was inside a hollowed-out wooden staff, and the three bones s...

With Tera and the children asleep, the only people left awake were Sylver and Bruno. They both sat on the roof of the house and silently watched the various chimeras going about their day. Or rather, night, since the bioluminescent hexagons in the ceiling had somewhat dimmed.

Sylver swirled the cold drink in his hand and ...

“Are you waiting for me to go first?” Sylver asked the horse creature.

There was something unnaturally grotesque about it. Every “living” creature had a certain pattern to it, a theme, a style.

One of Nyx’s theories was that the reason living creatures appeared to be ugly was because undead didn’t perceive the ...

It had 7 legs, as advertised, but instead of having them in a line, like a centipede, the creature had them side by side. Only the front left leg was alone, the other 3 were doubled up.

But even if the general shape was right, calling it a “horse,” felt disingenuous.

For starters, it didn’t have hooves, or rather it d...

“Have you had a chance to speak to Faust?” Tera asked, and for the first time in half an hour stopped talking long enough for Sylver to answer her question.

Aside from the fact that the house seemed to be made of what Sylver had realized was solidified thread, it looked like your average house.

As if someone had si...

Sylver’s new body was nearly impossible to poison.

For starters, anything that entered his mouth and traveled down his throat was essentially incinerated. To be specific it was magically disassembled into its base components which would then be used to heal or build his flesh and muscle.

And aside from a small handful of po...

Lola went upstairs to have breakfast with Spring, and the rest of the Sezari household, to give Ria and Sylver some privacy. Sylver sat back into his seat, and the liquid metal woman oozed onto the table directly in front of him and formed herself into a talking face.

“I want to make the world a better place,” Ria said.<...

Minor Delay+Q/A

This is a really minor one.

Almost didn't see the point of writing/posting this, but updates like this are half the point of being in the patreon. I started writing late because I'm an idiot, and now I'm too tired from doing shit early in the morning, so I'm afraid of finishing this chapter and posting shit that seems good while I'm tired.

In the meantime, if anyone has any question...

As Sylver waited for Spring to get started, he continued inspecting one of the three ribs he had gotten from “Sylver.”

It had the color of dark metal and the texture of very fine sandpaper. Going by the curve, and the general feel of them, the skeleton was in his very early 20s, possibly even younger.

Somewhat surprisingly, the meeting with Ruslana and Zelvash was so fast and nonsense-free that Sylver spent the entire 10 minutes waiting for something to go wrong.

But nothing did.

As with any ritual Sylver performed, when he wasn’t using scraps and was limited on time, everything was going smoothly and predictably.

Sylver’s body was in a very calm and constant process of breaking apart, and being forced back together using his magic. His bones would twist and turn and disintegrate, only to reform stro...

“It all started… I mean, really started… 3 years ago? About 3 years ago. There was a monster outbreak, they broke down the walls, nearly destroyed the city, it was terrible,” Lola said, as Sylver continued to quietly operate on one of his clones.

Next to him were several different trays, one filled with heart...
