Ch 130. The Culling

As I approached the Fighter's Guild Secretary, the adrenaline in my veins coursed through my body, making me keenly aware of the gravi...

Ch 129. The Infinite Shear

Pavel and I returned to the haven of my quaint cottage, nestled in the heart of the Eastern Ukrainian countryside.

The old p...

128. Wizard Revolution

A look of wild bewilderment came over Pavel's face as I finished describing my trip across infinity to another version of me, an archmage named Zariya living in the USSRA.

"So, what you're saying is... an exact copy of your soul lives in the...

Ch 127. The Price of Power

The heavy rain passed in sheets, and then the sun emerged once again, draping the countryside in warm tones. Drops of water trembled on the tips of leaves and grass blades and glittered like jewels.

I got off the bike, and walked through pud...

Ch 126. Divided

I felt the remnants of my spirit shatter in twain as I gave in to the will of the Dracolich, feeling a heavy and eternal weight press dow...

125. Homebound

"What's wrong?" Voltara asked, her brown eyes looking over me and trying to understand why I had suddenly folded and slumped down onto my desk.

A searing bolt of pain shot through my body akin to being electrocuted by lightning, as I forced ...

124. Bound shadow

"Foolish one," Rozaline said. "Upon the bidding of Infinity you have opened doors that should remain closed. You've meddled...

123. The Hall of History

"I want answers," I stood facing the avatar of Infinity beneath the Shogun gate of Undertown.

"Oh?" Infi tilted her head at...

122. The Supervillain

I stepped into the small town. It was even more pleasant than I'd expected.

The streets further out from the church were lined with quaint, red brick buildings and cozy wooden houses. They all had white shutters, sycamore trees in front of t...

121. Expansion

I collapsed into my bed atop the Lawmaker's Tower and rapidly drifted to sleep, my consciousness rejoining the rest of myself within my soul-space.

Thanks to the efforts of all of my soul-shards the old power plant had become changed was com...

Ch 120. Detention

Timelessness. Darkness. Flight. Blades forged from infinity ready to strike down my enemies.

I was JP and I saw Eureka just for an instance. Saw it, moments before I abandoned my own body and rushed back towards the gate, back to Nemendias. ...

Ch 119. Falling Stars

Amadea's eyes glinted with determination as she spoke. "Now, the question is, how do we destroy the opposition to our alliance of Order?"

"You can break them personally, no?" I commented. "Are you not immortal?"

My new partner bared he...

Ch 118. The Unavoidable Alliance

As I enjoyed monster-meat lunch at the table belonging to the House of the Infinite Searchers, my armacus started to vibrate.

According to the blue-tinted window flashing in my eye, it was Inspector Anniya.

"Yes, Inspector?" I picked u...

Ch 117. Searching for Allegiance

Having thoroughly derailed my first class and destroyed the antagonistic instructor of Arithmancy, I leaned further back on my chair examining the blue shimmers under my nails.

The tension filling the classroom did not last long. Inspector L...

116. My First Class

Amber was speechless for a minute, her eyes wide with confusion. I could tell that she didn't understand the full scope of what I was saying, couldn't understand exactly what I was.

"What do you mean... save Illatius? What war?" The redhead ...

115. The Uplift Curve

Even if Dr. Leon Uyara had lost his AGI partner forever, even if his Earth had been torn asunder by the fire of the gold stars falling from the sky... I knew that he would not give up.

Leon was me. Despite being born in Harbin and speaking C...

114. Improbability

"The luckiest man in the world is dead?" I asked, ribbing my chin and staring at the phone in bewilderment. "How did he die?"

"He drowned," Eva said plainly.

"He drowned? That doesn't sound lucky at all. You'd think that the luckiest m...

113. The Network of Souls

As Grogtilda's body relished the flavors of the tender dragonsteak, my lips making general chatter with the peers from the Searchers of the Infinite Dungeon House I focused my attention to the events unfolding in the Heart of Nemendias far below t...

112. The Signature Deception

I gulped.

Getting expelled was not part of my plan. The Dean likely wanted to kick me out of Nemendias so that her patron and relative - Baroness Georgia could blow me up with a magical grenade to kingdom come.

"I object," Nemmy said, ...

111. Derailing the Rules

As the Nemendias first-year students were eating lunch, the facsimile of the Keepers of Keys strolled back and forth in the skyship's cabin and listed off the various regulations that had to be followed.

Nemmy went into detail about the Cele...

110. Knowledge Day

I awoke from my hyper-realistic dream of the doomed planet called Laiternia with tears streaming down my face. I slid out of bed, parted the curtains and stepped to the stained glass window. I grabbed the handle and twisted the window open, pushin...

Ch 109. The World at the Boundary

A thorough scouting of the lower levels of Nemedias was a decent way of bringing my mood up for the day, but as evening drew near I had become tired and started yawning.

Voltara and I returned to the Lawmaker's tower dormitory and settled on...

Ch 108. Collision Course

Amber was clearly not having a good time. There was a scowl on her face as she angrily marched through the halls of Nemendias, sending glares at everything. It was obvious from her expression that she didn’t just dislike me - she disliked everyt...

Ch 107. The Price of Paradise

“That’s absolutely nothing to worry about,” Infi concluded with a wink as her outfit shifted its black and white ...

Ch 106. The Galactic Engine

“Juni,” Emerald whispered at me. “What’s a life vest?”

“A mundane flotation device with air compartments made fr...

Ch 105. The Fellowship of the Key

It took Nemendias and our entire team nearly two days to prepare the Keeper’s office for our mission to talk to Infinity.

By the time Nemmy and we were done with it, it hurt me to look at the ward-covered room. The room was absolutely ensh...

Ch 104. Double trouble

Lambert’s eyes lit up as he stared at the heavy, magisteel door.

“Which Builder of Andross?” He asked, his voice trembling with unconcealed excitement.

“Infi,” I said. “I think… I’ve created a permanent, open gate betwe...

Ch 103. Declaration of War

“You certainly work fast,” Nemendias commented observing the distraught girl on the floor.

“Mhmm,” I nodded. “I better get a crest for this.”

“Hold your hand open,” Nora-shaped avatar said.

I squinted at up at her...

Ch 102. Manifestation of Vengeance

I had made a fatal mistake, trusted someone that I should not have. Thanks to her tool, Gattaca was older and smarter than me. The pocket watch had given her vast amounts of time to learn how to deceive people. She had gamed me into this deadly, i...

Ch 101. The Mountain at the End

“T-thank you,” the black-cloaked girl in front of me breathed out, gulping from the offered cup of water.

She had slid up her white mask, revealing dark, grey-tinted skin beneath. I let her finish the drink before I proceeded with my int...
