“What do I do now?” Erin asked. She did not know what to do. She did not have anything left to live for. Besides, she was going to die, anyway. The extinction beam was coming for them. The black vortex in the sky was growing ever denser, ever larger. “There is nothing we can do. We can only wait for our inevitable death,” Rina said. “And since we are going to die, anyway. I might as well tell you my real name. Rina is the name of someone, a person I once could not save with all my power. My name is Victoria Hughes.” “You see, the name Hughes carries great weight in the world beyond. I cannot risk for them to learn my name. But as you can see, we are going to die. So it does not matter. We now have less than a minute.” “It was nice knowing you, Victoria.” “Was it?” The vampire woman said. “It was because of me that you did not even get to spend the last of your moment with your brother.” “Yes. However, at least I can die knowing that my brother is alive somewhere in the world beyo

It has been two weeks since I arrived in this world, this universe. The universe itself is called the nexus by my master, and by the local people, apparently. I am not surprised by the name. This universe exists at the very centre of all creation. It was the first world, or rather universe, that came to life—among all the universes that exist now and will exist in the future. I have been living in hiding in this world. In a separate dimension. This world has many powerful beings, apparently, more powerful than I. It was something I had not expected.In my home world, I was the strongest in existence. No one could even come close to my power aside from my master, who is far stronger. However, I am the weakest in this world, the weakest among the ascenders, at least. I do not know the true meaning of ascenders. However, I will figure it out soon enough. I have already sent the man my master tasked to come along with me to explore the world outside and gather as much information as he cou

Edwin’s sword rose and fell, decapitating a monster that looked like a cross between a lion and an eagle. The beast had a massive beak instead of a muzzle, and wings protruded from its back. Near him, Jimmy slumped into a tree trunk, painting. Chris was already defiling the monster to harvest the Beast Core. This was their thirteenth kill of the day. Even with all the preparation the three of them had done, it surprised Edwin how many monsters the three of them killed in a single day. If someone had told him that they could kill so many monsters in a single day, he would have laughed at the silly joke. “That went better than I expected,” Chris said. Edwin nodded in agreement. Chris sat next to Jimmy after harvesting the core. ‘Now, we have enough blood cores to help him advance.’ Edwin didn’t know if Jimmy advancing by a single realm could help him, but it was the only option they had. He knew learning to fight for a couple of months won’t be enough for Jimmy if he truly wanted t

The woman Tim came back with was someone at the peak of the Epic Realm and was also a vampire, preparing to advance to the Body Transition Realm. She walked into the room and bowed to Linden. "Someone at Elementary Realm challenging someone at the Epic Realm rarely happens. I hope I did not insult you with my action." Linden said. "It is not an insult, young master, but an honour to have an opportunity to duel with you. There are things you can learn, even from someone below your advancement level." "That is good to hear." Linden raised his sword. "Shall we begin then?" "Are there any rules?" She asked. He thought about it for a while and nodded. "No vital techniques." A vital technique enforced the body. And Blood Law was best at it. The woman already was two realms above his advancement. If she also used a vital technique, he would not stand a chance even with the help of Fate Shadows. Besides, he had yet to learn any Vital Cultivation Techniques. His Drogen had just unlocked a

Jimmy gaped, bewildered. Others in his group were also astonished. They had spent the last hour gossiping, and they hadn’t noticed the changes happening around them.Hundreds of tents, furniture, and other supplies of the Aether Tribe had vanished into thin air. Where was everything? As far as he could tell, no one was carrying anything that indicated tents, furniture, and other such things.Amazed discussions took place among all the recruits. Jimmy’s group was one of them.“I may be wrong. But as a Scripter, I have an inkling about what happened,” Rina said, at last.Chris eyed Rina. “You do?”Chris’s doubt was apparent in the tone of her voice. Why couldn’t Chris get along with the woman? Her bantering was beginning to irk his nerves. If this continued on, he might shout at her, which Jimmy didn’t want to.Rina snorted. “Of course, I know. It’s common knowledge where I came from. There are artifacts out there that can act as an anchor to store items in pocket dimensions. One such a
