479 Maal-Shateth

Maal-Shateth| Level: 489,019

My heart raced. Its level was beyond anything I’d ever imagined. It could level entire planets. No. It could wipe solar systems with a wave of its hands. I took a moment while it tried to break in, but-

It shattered the shield covering the city. As it did, a disgusting radiance oozed over the Capitol. People here began losing their san...

478 Progress Under a Looming Shadow

I crossed my arms.

"Forefathers? You were spawned by the undead?"

"Not at all. I mentioned it before, but my clan never believed in the latent abilities behind undead magic. They thought of it in terms of its limitations, not its potential, and that is why I shall prove them wrong once more."

The death in Torix's palm spiraled into a tiny light, one that denoted something oppo...

477 To March Across the World

He raised a palm, and the runes across him dimmed, all light siphoning into his body. He fed on it while squeezing his hand. A ripple raced across reality. It coursed over my dimensional wake, and my eyes widened. The magic carried the depth of laws within. Torix stood, his body imposing and regal.

"You wish to hear of it? Hm, a lecture. An astute idea."

Dominion oozed from his body...

476 An Old Friend Made New

I leaned towards him, and my curiosity piqued.

"Then what is driving you this hard?"

Florence met my eye, disbelief splattered across his face.

"Must you ask?"

I answered with silence. He grinned.

"Because we're helping people."

475 An Imperial Checkup

I sighed.

"Ok, I deserve a bit of heat for that, but my point still stands."

I gazed at the runic sculpture with a smile.

"I'm taking another step towards my endgame."

"To face the Old Ones?"

My smile turned fierce.

"No. To kill them."

I gave her a knowing grin.

"That's where I come in. Later on, I'll be able to get us the machinery we need, but for now-"

I raised a hand, and I turned a panel in it. My body glowed with ascendant mana as I carved into the panel.

"I'll guide and you'll be the explorer, eh?"

Amara smiled. Her eyes narrowed.

"Then let it be so."

473 Catching Up

Ah man, there had to be a phrase for that, but I couldn't think of anything off the top of my head. Anyway, I stood up, and wafts of dust floated off of me. I shook it off, and the particles fell off me like a tiny, lint sandstorm. After going downstairs, I found several surprises. First of all, Althea was waiting with her hands on her hips. She glared at me.

"What have you been doing all...

472 The Insanity of Progress

By the time I got back to Rebirth, it felt like I had spent a lifetime gaining new experiences. I went back to my room at the center of Rebirth's capital. Before I learned more about the fractals, I blinked a few times. This burgeoning city still lacked a name, and it was about time to give this planet's capital something to remember it by.

A few ideas popped into my head before I opened ...

471 To Empty the Mind

What about a psionic one? I had no damn idea how this even worked. I was a clueless, floundering puppy desperate to not drown. Taking a second, I wondered if pulling out of my body would help. Doing so, I found the virus rampaging all the same, but I had far less mental energy for it to infest before I perished. I shrank into a kernel of myself, only a tiny sliver remaining.

Emeralga put a hand on one of the glass boxes.

"You can have them along with my time nucleus. However, you must get me off this desolate rock. Deal?"

Emeralga stuck out a hand. I smiled.

"I have a better idea."

I pulled a panel of my dimensional fabric out of my pocket dimension.

469 Echoes of the Past

A brutal intelligence simmered in its ancient, glowing red eyes. On its back, a scarab beetle shell covered translucent wings that pulsed time mana. Runes covered the scarab shell's surface, and the cipher crackled in rhythmic waves of pure power.

It spoke in a diligent voice, one like an ancient librarian.

"The Harbinger and a dragon. This is truly a momentous occasion. Come. Let's...

468 The Past, Present, and Future

Standing up from the meditation, I felt ready for what was to come. I stepped out of my owned space, and everything crushed around me. The pressure was a tangible thing, but I welcomed it. Spreading my hands, I clasped my fists. It was good to be alive. I had a few notifications, but I'd read them after heading out.

It was time to destroy the time area with Chrona.

She was not killed, but a primal fear surged in her chest as the laws surrounding her dispersed. I swiped my hand, singularities encompassing us both. As I strode out of nothing, I was alone once more. I smiled. Unlike most other foes, I wouldn't forget Firamnia. Whether we agreed or disagreed on how we lived, we were aligned in how we would die.

In all regards, she was a warrior worthy o...

It reached the peak of the mountain before an explosion of telekinetic force rocketed it away. A tiny dot fell from him, and I snatched it out of the air. In my palm radiated the blue core the vanguard carried and charged up. I let the moment pass.

"Well, that just happened."

I gazed down.

"Alright then. Let's see what's in the pits of hell besides beauty."

465 Hell is Everchanging

I gave her a thumbs up.

"Sure thing. For you, Opal, I think if we get the right circumstances, we can even get you that class unlock."

Opal peered down.

"I wouldn't bet on it. Fringe Walkers are notoriously difficult to upgrade, and I haven't been able to push for that even after thousands of years."

I gripped my hands into fists.

"Then let's change that."

A list of objectives pooled in my head along with a bit of status work. Taking a moment, I allocated my attributes from the fight, finalized my decision, and inspected my status.

My armor grinned, mana falling from me in a crimson wave. It fought back the ice, my dimensional wake stretching over it like a cloud of smog in a clear sky. A wave of excitement rushed through me, melting the cold and hastening the states of matter near me. I spoke, my voice a thrumming violence in my wake.

I jolted between it and Opal. The eagle's claws shattered against my armor, unable to tear through my dimensional fabric. The eagle raised its head, cawing. The sound built like an ancient eruption waiting to blow. Before it could do anything more, I gripped its neck, broke it, and pulled its head off. Simultaneously, I tore its wings from its shoulders and twirled its legs into broken slinkies...

Amara eyed it all.

With a flick of its wrist, one of the chains hanging from its shackles snapped into one of the tables of the large lunchroom. The table cracked, splintering in half as a crater formed on the white tiles. The grin on its face lengthened until it was too wide for its eyeless face.

Its words smoldered like hot coals.
