MA: 53. A Moment of Bonding

If the Condition was anything to go by, then 99 Poisoned Apples were required to completely weaken the Forest of Everlasting Envy. The Poisoned Apples in question were the Sweet Thorns.

Defeating a Sweet Thorn caused the darkness in their immediate surroundings to dissolve, revealing a vibr...

917. Ragnelle, The Advisor of Beholder Jury

“Sanguine Doves are impressive in that regard. When I first heard of them, I thought they rediscovered the Angel of Blood’s Oasis.”

She stood beside a seated Jury who made strange mouth noises. The Beholder squirmed in her seat and stretched herself along the table, rocking herself ar...

916. A Blood Angel Arrives

The clopping of leather boots pronounced the arrival of a white-haired woman.

The spectacular pale interior of the first floor of Time Reverberation’s Headquarters was bustling with over a hundred newly introduced Healers, and dozens of Aspiring Moons who called this Department home.

MA: 52. To Take Down A Sweet Thorn

The brambles protecting the Bitter Thorns were far too sturdy for her blade to cut through. Instead, she turned her attention to the Envious Brambles first and made quick work of them.

Since there were more than 3 enemies surrounding her, the fine line turned into the bloody mist. Whatever ...

MA: 51. Snow's Secret

Red and the Queen of Sweet and Bitter Thorns were Suppressed when they devoured a golden apple. She imagined it’d the be the same here, but not exactly. It was unclear what the golden apples were for. She only knew that one had sprouted from her body.

They ventured deeper into the woods i...

MA: 50. Infectious Countdown

Hours later, Mr. Huntsman rose from his deep slumber.

His pale complexion did not inspire confidence in his condition, but he was thankfully still alive. If Snow had healed him any later, then this cave would have been his final resting place.

“Do you know how to make a splint?” S...

915. A Happy Stroll Around Atlas

Now that the Assembly was over, Frost was able to focus on more important matters. Of course, the task of introducing the Nexus was not a small order but it was a manageable task in the grand scheme of things.

The margin of error was wide in regard to dealing with the Kingdoms and their emi...

MA: 49. Red Snow

Red was oblivious to her sudden growth spurt. Eating was only part of the equation that contributed to her physical growth. She had barely eaten anything aside from the Specific Nex and the Broken Brambles of an Envious Tree.

Not only that, but her clothes had grown slightly larger as well ...

914. Ignis, The True Slime

“Squish! Awa! Waw!”

“Uwaaa!”

“Boing! Boing!”

“Gloop! Bwaa!”

A festival of cute noises filled the Stage. An army of slimes took over hundreds of seats and bounced in place with infectious energy.

The stray Healers who decided to stay back melted at the...

MA: 48. The Mystery of Snow's Diary

“To become human…”

Red had the same train of thought too, but she never once thought about killing a human and wearing their skin to become them.

She knew what it was like to live as a Corrupted. It was entirely different from the free will that humans possessed. But if these we...

MA: 47. The Origins of The Bitter Thorns

And then, before the Bitter Thorn could even lift a leg to attack –

“No… Rockie wouldn’t lose to the likes of you!”

– She expertly slashed a leg off. Her momentum allowed her to then take out another which destabilized the Rock Bug. It limped as it turned its body around, ...

MA: 46. The Bitter Rock Bug

Moments earlier, Red followed the sound of Snow’s voice and a sudden, booming thwack. If Red had to describe the sound, then it’d be close to the crack of a whip.

She blazed through the forest, her blade kept close to her chest in a reverse grip. Foliage disintegrated as she slashed her...

913. The Allies of The Nexus

“Please look into this book.”

Anna flipped through the pages of the Code of Sovereigns. The text flowed with a red flame as it was written by the ink-pen the Crowned had left behind for her. Those who read the text written by this pen caused its contents to be branded into their minds.<...

912. The Right Thing To Do

In the end, Frost had to think about what the right thing was to do. Whilst sending Healers was irresponsible, there was a correct way to do it. A Moon would have to be sent alongside a Healer.

Additionally, Frost didn’t want to capitalize on a Kingdom’s grief. The young King of the Far...

911. The Virtuous Kingdoms

All nine of the representatives were brought into the room to sit before the Amalgam. An unbearably thick air of tension choked them the moment they stepped foot into the room.

Blood drained from their faces, but it soon returned as the Amalgam motioned them to sit.

“Take a seat. Yo...

910. A Cnidarian Moon

“Umu. Impressive. Amalgam.”

A Seci Response Moon greeted Frost as she moved into another room. An equally impressive chamber sat behind the Stage. It was separated by five wooden doors and a single steel, lattice door.

As one would expect, this room which was decorated with a few ...

909. The Slime Goddess

Shortly afterwards, they were dropped off at the City of Clubs to collect their armies. The Stormweaver Continuity had already been sent back to their Kingdom without their representative.

Faces of surprise spread across the soldiers. They didn’t expect their rulers to return so quickly. ...

908. A Future To Fear

For the representatives of the Kingdoms to leave the Stage with their lives was a mercy. Save for the Stormweaver Continuity, of course.

But not everyone saw it that way. They had caught a glimpse of a being that surpassed all reason. The weakest members of the Nexus were monsters that coul...

907. The Nexus At War

Showcasing the zero tolerance of the Nexus’s judgement was only part of what Frost wanted to achieve. In fact, she initially wanted to avoid taking drastic action against the rulers of Elysia.

But she realized that the Nexus needed to establish its place in the world as a sovereign body. ...

906. The Progenitor of The Corrupted

Indeed. Those 500 Blessed owed their lives to the Kingdom of Slimia. In fact, the reason why they were searching for a Healer was to help the Blessed. It was during the same day that they sent the request via a Herald that a Missionary arrived to personally escort the Blessed back to the Nexus. 2025-01-09 01:23:56 +0000 UTC View Post

905. Deepening Inquisition

But how would the Amalgam know about that incident?

Mary didn’t understand. It wasn’t a well-known incident either. But somehow, the Amalgam knew what had happened down to who was involved by name.

“So long as it has happened, then traces of the pas...
