Arc Chronicles Interlude - Calixte
Interlude: The Corai BaseOne moment he was sitting in his hospital bed, waiting for the end to come while listening to a crazy old man. There was nothing else for a soldier to die who's been mortally wounded. There was nothing any surgeon or even a healer could do for him now. The Roslachnian solider had got him. The soldier could only hope that Prince Calixte and Princess Victoria finished the conquest of New Siberia soon.In the next, he had been plunged into ice-cold water.Only it wasn't water; when his eyes flashed open, he was floating in green liquid. It was so green he couldn't see through it. He could barely see his hands in floating in front of his face. He tried to swim upwards, but his body wouldn't move.It was the coldest thing he had ever been in. Alan imagined it was what arctic water must have felt like. Had the crazy old man laced his tea with something to knock him out and then thrown him overboard at the North Pole? He said his cure could world, but Alan didn't be
Arc Chronicles Strixes
In honor of Strixes, a story I am currently publishing on Webnovel, I've decided to post the firet chapter here. If you'd like to read more, check it out over on Webnovel. New York TimesMay 17th, 2024As of the beginning of 2020, coming out of a glob health crisis the likes of which haven't been seen since the Spanish Flu epidemic of 1919, the world reached an estimated population of 30 billion people. The population increase began in 1989, when an alien ship broke apart over the United States of America and the Soviet Union, splintering into two parts.The result of a failed colonization effort on behalf of a species that we do not even know the name of. Every one of them perished in the crash. From what we have recovered and translated, this species believed the Earth was uninhabited and was planning a settlement operation.The alien ship was over 200 years more advanced than any nation on Earth.. Not only did it jump-start the economy of the two superpowers, medical and agricultu
Arc Chronicles Euphemia
Euphemia ArcI could never admit it, not publicly at least, but I loved Samurai movies. Oyashima might one day be our ally, but as it stood, it was a rival power and the emperor would never allow it to be known that his children enjoy foreign media. Especially the media of a rival power. It might be different if I was watching movies produced by some state that was so many they couldn't be a threat and they weren't actively engaged in hostilities with the empire. That ruled out Corai and most other countries, though there were a few that remained.So when I got the call that I would have to stop my movie night and go to the eyesore of Bayard, I wasn't happy. "Why do you watch those films?" Godfrey asked as I got in the back of the car.I shrugged. I had no answer for him or the emperor. My father would prefer that I watch Aquitese films though and read books by our authors. Yet that might be changing soon. As I looked at the newspaper in front of me, it showed my older brother Henri d
Arc Chronicles Euphemia
Director Edgecombe's smile was predatory. "Of course. Let's return to the pig for slaughter.""Pig for slaughter?" I repeated. If what she said about this place was true, I guess that was a good way to describe him. "Tell me about this Hang Gao.""As I said, my agents approached him with an offer. He was the right kind of person, a Corain citizen. We had investigated him for months before we approached him.""Why? Did you suspect something was wrong?""We wanted to know more about his life. What could we turn him in with? Did he have a wife and an affair? Did he have some secret he didn't want to get out? Something like that. We found out he lived in a small shack, barely scraping by, living off scraps.""So you offered him money?"Director Edgecombe nodded. "We offered him a lot of money, but it was more than that. We offered to train him, not just as a spy, but in a field that would make the cover we wanted to give him easier. We wanted a high society roller, someone that would be a
Arc Chronicles Calixte
Calixte ArcThankfully we didn't have to stay long after that. No Roslachnian warplanes appeared, and it wasn't long before our warplanes dominated the vastness of the skies. Once it was clear that we controlled the sky, it wasn't long before the army moved in, occupying even more of the Roslachnian land. Former land. Once the conquest was complete, Tanya's family would be given New Siberia to rule.Mireille and Agent Caron stayed with the buildings, to wait for scholars that would know more than them. The Office of Secret Intelligence recruited a small retinue of knights and special forces soldiers to guard the building and my wife. Which was something I was thankful for.Troop transports arrived to drop off the knights and special forces team, which left enough room for us. The Air Corps would retrieve our borrowed warplanes, so we were free to leave. The transports took us back to the Acadian border, where I was whisked away by base staff.The rest of his team was going to be debri
Arc Chronicles Calixte
Calixte ArcEmers Gallagher was nowhere to be seen and as far as I was concerned, that was good. Fighting for my life in the skies above New Siberia was bad enough, I didn't need my personal hunter there as well.We had pushed the Roslachnian Communist forces back to the border of what had been Alaska in my first world. Not the small sliver that stuck out into Alberta, but the old state proper. Once we won this battle, we will have captured the whole of Alberta and then we could move on to Alaska.Though I would be getting a break. My reward was a few weeks off, which I planned to divide between my two wives and my fiance. But I couldn't think about that right now.We were fighting a battle of Fort Stalin, with no relationship to the Soviet Dictator. As far as I could tell, there had to be some connection, right? Roslachny was this world's Soviet Union, so there had to be something.Whatever the connection was or was not, this was the last fort. The last gateway from Alberta to Alaska
Arc Chronicles Julius
We lapped into a comfortable silence as the bus took off. I watched the towering redwoods as we drove past, peering into the forest. Tyche was a very beautiful place if you were into the whole nature scene. It was a better view than my home, that was for sure. I wished I could have grown up in a place like this.As we came down the hill, I spotted a girl. She was hidden within the treeline, barely visible for a second as we passed. The girl was Asian, but almost forty percent of Tyche was Asian, so that didn't mean much. Her dark hair was tied in a single ponytail and she was wearing out school uniform, but I was sure I had never seen her before.That wasn't the weird part. The girl was carrying a sword. A freaking katana, straight out of some anime. Her uniform was bloody and clawed through like an animal had gotten a hold of her. Her eyes were glowing a molten gold.The bus drove by but she vanished beyond the treeline. I got up to try to catch another look, but the girl was gone."
Arc Chronicles Calixte
Okay, so Meganovel is on Singaporean time. I set this chapter to be released yesterday, thinking it would be on my local time. Opps. I did not mean to miss uploading, my bad. I will manually be uploading every day from now onThe protection charms that had been imbued into the wall were broken, so it was easy to get over it. The surface of the wall was smooth, so it was hard to climb, but compared to the protections it should have had, getting in was too easy.I sent Tanya first, literally flinging her over the wall. She was channeling her mana into her ShieldGem, which was a good thing because as soon as she was over, he heard firing. It was a good thing they received advanced combat training because most of his experience came from fighting in a warplane."You're up next," I told Rolo. "When you get to the top, give me a helping hand."Tanya didn't have the upper body strength to pull one of us up, so she would provide cover while we got over. Most of the base defenders were focused
