Arc Chronicles Euphemia
Euphemia"I think they're working against me. Not Daliah or Godfrey, but my ministers. Viceroys are supposed to be an extension of the emperor's rules in a given area. They were agents of his will, upholding the imperial laws of the empire. They acted in his stead, ruling in his name. So why do I have so many ceremonies? It seemed like every other day some new building was being opened. A ship was commemorating its maiden voyage. An anniversary of a great war won hundreds of years ago. There was always something."I'm not the one managing the city or the colony. I don't have time to see the overseeing the drafting of new law, nor am I being given a voice in it. The chambers of my government are being run without me, headed by the Vice Minister. The only part of the process I play any part in is giving imperial ascension so it could be put into law."Rachel nodded. "You think this is a deliberate move against you? Have you considered that it is all just coincidence?""At first, I thoug
Arc Chronicles Euphemia
Euphemia Arc"What plan?" I asked, leaning across the desk in front of us. "Forgive me, but I can't be left in the dark about this. I came to you because my government was doing just that. If I am to rule one day, I cannot allow myself to take a step back and let someone serve me."Rachel nodded. "Very well. The plan is quite simple. It will involve the appearance of sidelining you. You are away that the Minister of Economy remains a support of yours?"I did. "One of the few it feels like I have left.""These people approached him with the same offer.""How do you know that?""I'm in contact with the minister. He's not one of mine, but he is your supporter and since I am too, he speaks with me. Rather candidly. I've been speaking with him about this same matter and we've concluded that the best way to move forward is for him to accept their offer.""To betray me?""We need someone on the inside and unlike me, he can go far into their ranks. Further, than I ever could. We will only pro
Arc Chronicles Euphemia
EuphemiaThe morning started well enough, but I sniffed the pink potion that my brother had sent me. He said it would help me to remember, and he wrote more about what it was, but stupidly, I didn't read the rest. If I read it the first time, I had forgotten it in my haze of what my father wrote.Before I new it, the potion had casted me away.It was a grueling twelve-hour flight to the Tyché colony. My new staff and the plane crew were the only ones joining me. It wasn't an uncomfortable flight. I was in the seat of luxury, the best the empire had to offer, but it was long. As I looked out the window, I was reminded that my plane wasn't alone. A fleet of aircraft carrying the first waves of new colonists trailed behind us. Those planes were crammed full, so I was lucky to have a spacious plane almost all to myself. I remembered that flight well. I was so nervous, but I was determined. Now I was back on the plane. It wasn't just an identical plane, it was the exact same one that firs
Arc Chronicles Calixte
I was going to have to face Emer Gallagher in the air again. Our intelligence had stated that she was with the last of the New Siberian Air force.And she would be coming for me. In the end, of course, it would be her. My first great enemy, the woman who nearly shot me out of the sky. In the end, I would need to face her in battle.It wasn't going to be easy. If anything, I was looking at a fight for my life, a fight I wasn't sure I could win. I needed to prepare for battle, and there was only one way I could do it.One effective way I could do it. I needed to see her up close. I needed to watch her, but in this world, it was too early for things like cameras. There was no recording equipment. You could record by magic, but that was harder.None of our fights had been recorded. So the best way to deal with this was to watch her through my memories.By now, I was familiar with the sensation of being dragged into my memories. I concentrated on that first battle with Emer, back in Morocc
Arc Chronicles Calixte
Calixte ArcAs my memory came to an end, I wondered if I would have to wake up and smell the potion again. As the memory froze like a movie being paused, I decided to try another memory. When I thought about it, the scene before me dissolved into smoke, before reforming at another time. In another place.Mireille was there to see us off and she waved happily at Tanya. My other wife didn't even look at her. Mireille was wishing us good luck and safe passage, which would have been a nice gesture considering we were going into battle, but she was an intelligence officer. One of the best the Office of Secret Intelligence had to offer, as far as I was concerned. The OSI had known about the ambush we were talking into for three days, so she should be better than anyone we won't be in any danger.It had worked. If I had allowed the dream to end, I'm sure it would have. If I thought about other memories, it would call them to this scene.That was what was supposed to happen. The New Siberian

It wouldn't be long now.
Arc Chronicles Reborn Gamer
This will NOW be my last chapter like this. My main focus is purely on Arc Chronicles, but since I will be on a flight to Korea tomorrow, I won't have time to write the next chapter, and when I get there, I'm going to have jetlag. So I'm posting the alpha version of a story that I wrote last year. I'm thinking about releasing the final version over on Webnovel.A lot of the the early chapters will be similar to this alpha version, since they were rewrites, so don't be surprised if you go and read the official version.I do have 100 chapters of it written and since I'm going to be busy in Korea for work for the next two months... Well, at least I will have something to release on Webnovel. I'll have enough free time to focus on writing one thing and that will be Webnovel.Chapter I: RebirthIn my first thirty-two years of life, I had never seen anything that would lead me to believe that God existed. Not just the Abrahamic one, but no God or gods or any higher power. Creation was a ser

This was supposed to be posted with all the chapters yesterday. Sorry about that. After this one, closing in on end game contents!****************************************************Chapter VIII: Character PlanningWhen a monster was killed in Salvation, a screen appeared in front of the player that killed it. I took a peak over Kanade's shoulder:REWARDSEXP: 10ITEMS: 0LYRE: 0I patted her on the should. "Boars have a chance of dropping a fang, so bad luck that you didn't get anything, but good job. You should check your skills.""How come?""You know our skills all start at zero and we max them out at one hundred, right? The first time we use a skill, it jumps from zero to one. The higher the skill level is, the harder it will be to level it, but the first level is always given."Kanade opened her menu and scrolled over to the skills section. "My Bow skill is 1/100 and so is Accelerate.""That's good."I looked back at Amos and Euphie. We never agreed to anything officially, but
