Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 40- Mission II
Chapter 40- Mission IIBlack smoke erupts in the garden beside the Stoneforge mansion, alerting the Elite Guards."What's happening over there?" one of them asks as they all watch the smoke coil into the air.Without replying, four of the guards go to check it out, leaving only six. Their attention is diverted, but they remain cautious of their surroundings.Kael is now closer to the mansion, watching closely for the stunts his Curse Servant is about to pull. He prays for the curse to fail the task assigned to him so that he can dismiss him for incompetence but also prays for the curse to succeed because of the mission's importance.He's a novice who doesn't know what a curse is capable of doing.A loud thud is heard, and four of the Elite Guards rush towards the garden, where they see the bodies of the first four guards piled up together. Before they can move, they are surrounded by black flames.A scorching flame from an unknown source, a flame not even a special soldier of the Arme
Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 41 - Mission III
Chapter 41 - Mission IIIA common trait among the Dwargons was their brown eyes, while Elves mostly had azure blue eyes. It was rare to see a Dwarf with black eyes looking so manly and hot like Kael. His journey in the Armed Nation of Dwargon would be a stressful one.Zodoba turned and started navigating his way through the dark. He had been in this house for more than a year and was sure to find his way even in the dark. He climbed the steps of the staircase and stopped at the third step.The guards outside...His gaze fell on the door. Since he caused the power outage, the guards outside should have turned on their torches, and the rays should be hitting the door. But tonight was strange; none of them were doing that."Or is this the work of the intruder?" His thoughts lingered as he went to check it out himself.He opened the door to the mansion and stepped outside. The cold breeze greeted him, slapping against his face.He didn't feel any presence; there wasn't a single guard in f
Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 42 - The Intruders
Chapter 42 - The Intruders "Are you ready to talk now?" he asked, and the guard nodded, slipping to the floor."So, what's the fuss all about, Mr. Elite Guard?" he asked, smirking mockingly. His own blow had taken a toll on him; he wondered if it was the same for the others.'How dare he mock me?' The guard couldn't help but give him a stern look as he struggled to rise, his back aching."I don't have all the time in the world," Kael snapped, and the guard shivered with fear. Kael released a little of his magical essence, dominating the whole area and causing the guard to panic."An intruder is in the building," began the guard."Another intruder?" Kael exclaimed, his mind drifting back to the mission. 'I hope this intruder isn't here for my belongings.'"He's here to assassinate Mr. Stoneforge. My leader is on the verge of death, which is impossible. I thought it was your doing, so I came to confirm it," the guard rushed his words, but they still found their way into Kael's mind.It
Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 43 - The Intruders II
Chapter 43 - The Intruders II"Alexa, is there a way for me to heal the Elite Guard without pouring essence on him?"[System Analyzing... Analysis will take two hours.]Kael heard the voice of his system and frowned. 'How can analysis take two hours?' By then, Zodoba would probably be dead. He didn't want to directly pour essence on him because it looked like performing magic, and from the books he read, he found out that magic is not generally acceptable in the Armed Nation of Dwargon. He could be executed for that."Alexa, you've got 30 seconds," he said sternly, folding his fists.[I can't complete the analysis in 30 seconds, but I have a suggestion.][The essence flows through every part of your body, most essentially your bloodstream. Employ total concentration and decentralize the essence into liquid.]"Wow...that's a nice idea. Let me try it," Kael replied, clasping his hands together. 'Total concentration,' he muttered, closing his eyes. He was by the stair corners, unwatched
Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 44 - The Intruders III
Chapter 44 - The Intruders III"You've got spirit, I'll give you that," Kitbushi said, smirking as he steadied his breath. "But spirit alone won't save you."He lunged again, this time feinting to the left before striking from the right. Kael was caught off guard, his block a fraction too slow. The edge of Kitbushi's blade nicked his arm, drawing a thin line of blood. Kael winced but didn't falter.Kael retaliated with a quick series of slashes, his movements growing more desperate but no less determined. Kitbushi deflected each strike with practiced ease, his eyes never leaving Kael's. He could see the frustration and fatigue beginning to set in.Kitbushi pressed his advantage, launching a high attack aimed at Kael's shoulder. Kael parried, but the force of the blow sent vibrations through his arm. Kitbushi immediately followed with a low sweep at Kael's legs. Kael jumped to avoid the attack but landed awkwardly, losing his balance for a moment.In that split second, Kitbushi saw his
Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 45 - King of Theft
Chapter 45 - King of Theft Kibutshi was as much as surprised to feel Kael's presence behind him. "My technique caused every part of your body to be useless.. How were you able to move your body?" Kibutshi asked turning at once, lodging his sword into Kael's stomach..But unfortunately, Kael was able to see through that attack as he suddenly vanished and appeared behind Kibutshi."Don't you get it?" Kael asked him sarcastically as Kibutshi turned to face him.."That's the Ethereal step.. My skill.. How come you're able to use it?" Kibutshi suddenly came to realization."I just acquired a new skill. It's called King of Theft." Kael chuckled loudly as he concealed all his magic essence back into his body. He could hear the footsteps of the guard advancing."You stole my technique?" Kitbushi asked surprisingly. He was having this feeling of emptiness but never knew it's because of that."Not only Ethereal step but this." Kael said and in no moment, his sword appeared on his hand. Before

He said and ran off into the bathroom before she could say any more words.She went to his bed and rearranged it then to the wardrobe and was selecting an outfit for him.While she was doing this, he came out of the bathroom still in the same boxer he went in with. His body dripping with water.She turned at once and a gasp almost leave her mouth as her eyes fell on his chest. She was shocked and dumb founded. Not only his chest was clean but she couldn't found any traces of wound on it. Not even the marks.Her eyes wandered every part of his body and she couldn't find any bandage and then to his face. His red hairs was dripping water down his chest. She bet if Kael could actually used the shower."I'm done bathing." Kael announced spreading his palm."You shouldn't have wear that old underwear. There's a towel in there, let me get it for you." She said and quickly rushed inside the bathroom and came out with a white towel.Sh

"Get up Kael.. You'll be late to class again." Dogo said, tapping his shoulder. "Allow me to sleep a little bit, just a little bit." Kael protested using the pillow to cover his head when Dogo jumped on the pillow, landing with his butt on it. "I heard an old student of Nevermore Academy has returned.. The most beautiful maiden in the Magic Department." Dogo said with smiles on his face. "And how's that my own business?" Kael groaned from underneath the pillow and Dogo chuckled, rising to his feet. "Everything about it is your business." He said amidst chuckling and walked out of the room. Kael laid on the bed for more than 10 minutes before finally getting on his feet and walked into the bathroom. Within 30 minutes, he had finished dressing up and then proceed towards the class. "I haven't eaten for long." He grumbled, holding his stomach as he managed and enter the class only to interrupt the Teacher's teaching. "Good Morning Ma." He greeted absentmindedly causing the studen

Chapter 87: Copy Cat II
Kael’s poison resistance skill helped him nullify the poison, and as he got to his feet, Elder Qin emerged from the root cage with sharp talons in place of fingers.Elder Qin charged wildly at Kael, who punched the earth hard, throwing sand into the air. This didn't affect Elder Qin, who clawed his way through the sand, advancing toward Kael's stomach. Kael didn't see him coming as the claw slashed his shirt, ripping off his clothes and causing him to crash to the ground."Flower Magic: Gerit Trapatea," Elder Qin chanted, causing flowers to grow from the ground and trap Kael’s legs and arms, immobilizing him."You can't win against me, Kael. Not in this life. Not this way," Elder Qin said, walking up to him with the intent of finishing him off. But as he advanced, his bones started to crack.The rain had stopped drizzling as his talons grew longer, and he fell on all fours as his backbone crawled out of his back.Elder Qin was transforming, and Kael knew it.

"We are both Nexus Mages, but while you're at the Middle Stage of the Radiant Adept, I am at the Last Stage of the Radiant Adept. I'm afraid to say, Kael Stoneforge, the price of the antidote is your life, and you're going to pay for it in a brutal way," Kael heard the voice of Elder Qin as the cave wall cracked heavily, releasing overwhelming magical essences into the air."Freya, get up and find a place to hide. I'll show this guy why I'm called Kael," Kael screamed out loud as he released his own overwhelming essence into the air, summoning his sword to him.He charged at Elder Qin at once, who summoned a staff into his grip, countering Kael's attack with it. Kael glared hard as he pressed against the staff, causing his blade to break through it. Elder Qin made the staff vanish, ducking to avoid Kael's blow, which swung through the air instead. In that moment, Elder Qin planted a kick on Kael's chin, sending him soaring through the air and crashing into the cave wall before slumpin

Chapter 85: The Invitation
[Two Hours Later]Kael was heading towards his room after fruitlessly waiting for Freya. He had been in the library, occupying himself with books and waiting for her to show up, but she didn't.He thought of heading to the restroom but dismissed the idea. He decided to head home instead.He turned the doorknob and found that the door was locked. It was strange not to find Dogo home by this time of day. His suspicion arose as he input his passkey and entered the room.As expected, it was empty, but something felt strange to him."Someone has been here," he said to himself, sniffing the air. He was perceiving a scent... a scent different from that of Dogo or Freya.He squinted his eyes around the room and found a letter lying on the bed. He quickly rushed and picked it up. It was a letter of invitation.He opened it and read the contents aloud, "If you want your servant, come to the cave in the woods and come alone. The Qin Family.""Oh, fuck..." he gnashed his teeth as he clenched his

[Two Days Later]"You mean Kael did this?" Qin Chun asked with a shocked expression."Yes, he did. He sabotaged our plan and exposed Qin Meng to the authorities of Nevermore Academy. Qin Meng is now a prisoner at the Academy, and he also shattered the bones of Qin Feng," Jahel answered Qin Chun as they both stood on the rooftop of Nevermore Academy, watching the students move around."Kael has caused a lot of trouble for us. It's high time we put him in his place," Qin Chun added with a frown."Kael isn't just any student. He's a noble and the heir of the House Stoneforge of the Armed Nation of Dwargon, and you're aware of the relationship between the Western Nation. Kael's not someone we can just rashly attack," Jahel revealed, causing Qin Chun to let out a sigh."We won't attack him rashly. We are going to invite him over.""Invite him over? Only a fool would accept the invitation of his enemy," Jahel stated, causing Qin Chun to chuckle."Send word to all members of the Qin Family

The Next Morning**Kael woke up late as usual, but this time he had a headache. He sat up on the bed, the events of the previous day lingering in his mind."Oh no... What have I done?" he asked himself as he flung the bedsheets aside and jumped out of bed, realizing he was naked. This was not his bed; it was Dogo's. He hadn't slept in his own bed the previous night.The door to the room opened, and Kael quickly grabbed the bedsheets as Freya entered with a smile on her face.She looked beautiful, dressed in her uniform and holding a tray of food."Oops. You're awake. I guess I'm late then," she said, dropping the tray on the table at the right corner of the room. Kael studied her expression; she had a calm look as if nothing had happened."Freya, how are you feeling now?" asked Kael, and she smiled broadly."I'm doing fine, Master, thanks to you. I never knew you'd go the extra mile even though you learned the poison was incurable," she said, and Kael chuckled."That was nothing, Frey

Chapter 82: The IntimacyKael was tired when he got back to Nevermore Academy. It was already nightfall, and the moon cast his shadow in the hallway. Althea had frustrated his life to the extent that he almost thought of harming her.His mind was filled with different thoughts as he staggered towards his room."Kael," he heard a familiar voice call out to him. He tilted his head to see Dogo approaching. A smile formed on his face as he tried hard to compose himself before he started thinking nonsense."I've been waiting for a while. I thought something bad happened to you," Dogo said, tapping his shoulder."No. I'm fine. I told you I can take on Gareld. He's a small fry for me," Kael boasted."Are you trying to brag or what?" Dogo arched a brow."Ain't doing nothing of such, brother," Kael defended."I see you trying to brag about your success because you possess some magic skills, but that doesn't change the fact that you're a 3-star..."Dogo paused immediately after turning towards
