Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 55: The Duel
Chapter 55 - The Duel The cave was dimly lit by the torches they carried, casting eerie shadows on the rough, uneven walls. The air was thick with tension as Dogo, Eldric, and Gareth faced each other, swords drawn. The stakes were high, and all three knew that only one would leave the cave victorious."Bring it on," Eldric muttered, charging at Dogo with all his might. Dogo knew he was up against a formidable opponent. Eldric Giyu, the heir to the House Giyuson, was in the same rank as him. They both leveled up to Rank B Swordsmanship at the same time.Dogo took a deep breath, focusing on Eldric's movements. As Eldric swung his sword in a wide arc aimed at Dogo's head, Dogo sidestepped, narrowly avoiding the strike. He countered with a swift slash aimed at Eldric's midsection, but Eldric parried the blow with his sword."Nice move, Dogo," Eldric complimented as he moved back.Gareth took advantage of Dogo’s focus on Eldric and moved in from the side, aiming a precise thrust at Dogo’
Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 56 - The Nexus Mage
Chapter 56 - The Nexus Mage Eldric and Gareth exchanged a quick glance, a silent agreement passing between them. They both attacked Dogo in unison, their swords moving in perfect synchronization. Dogo gritted his teeth, bracing himself for the onslaught."Enough!" Dogo roared, gathering all his energy for a final strike. "Blade of the eternal sky, strike true and end this battle. Sky Cleaver!" His sword glowed with a brilliant blue light as he swung it with all his might. The energy from the attack created a shockwave that rippled through the cave, forcing Eldric and Gareth back.Eldric and Gareth were sent crashing into the cave walls, their swords clattering to the ground.Dogo stood in the center of the cave, breathing heavily, his sword still glowing with residual energy. "I told you," he said between breaths, "the House Dougor never trained a coward.""Hahaha...""Why are you laughing when it's clear you've been defeated?" Dogo asked, surprised, as Gareth struggled to get on his
Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 57: Conspiracy among The High Council
Chapter 57: Conspiracy among The High Council ***The Armed Nation of Dwargon***Instructor Valerie and the members of the High Council gathered before the Valley of the Shadows, waiting impatiently for the outcome of the events. The news about the death of a member had reached their ears, and as they gathered among themselves, the life stone of another member shattered."What is happening? Is the Golden Ticket in a dangerous place?" asked Sir Dwarki, fearing for his niece, Thalie.Fortunately, the life stones that broke belonged to Darius and Liam Firebrand. Sir Giyu started panicking, his heart racing, but Sir Geld signaled him to stay calm.Rustling in the bushes diverted their attention. Two figures emerged from the dense forest, heading toward the High Council members. Sir Giyu's eyes widened immediately—Mira and Kara were the figures. He had ordered Darius to execute Mira, but now Mira stood alive, while Darius's life stone had shattered, indicating his death."Do you have the G
Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 58: Conspiracy among The High Council II
Chapter 58: Conspiracy among The High Council II It turned out to be Kael, carrying the unconscious Dogo Dougor of the Armed Nation of Dwargon on his shoulder. The Golden Ticket was with Dogo, proving that he was the winner of the competition. Kael dropped Dogo on the ground and gazed directly at Sir Geld, a smirk curling on his lips. He released more of his magical essence, forcing the middle-aged men to their knees. His aura was overwhelming. Even the instructor was shocked but kept her cool. She never imagined a Nexus Mage would be in the Armed Nation of Dwargon. Such a talented kid, she couldn't let him slip through her fingers. "Dogo Dougor of the Armed Nation of Dwargon and Kael Stoneforge of the Armed Nation of Dwargon," she called out, and Kael directed his attention toward her. "Welcome to the Nevermore Academy," she said, and vanished from their presence. "Wow, I also got admitted," Kael exclaimed loudly, raising his arms into the air. --- ***Three Days Later
Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 59: Nevermore Academy
Chapter 59: Nevermore Academy The carriage came to a halt in front of a massive black gate, and Dogo hopped out almost immediately."Are we there?" came a voice from within the carriage. Dogo shook his head."Nay, we are not yet arrived. I merely wished to take a stroll," Dogo replied as he advanced toward the gigantic black gate. He wondered why the carriage had not conveyed them inside the school's compound.Dogo stood tall and lean, with an athletic build. His dark hair was messy and unkempt, and his piercing green eyes gleamed with a sense of adventure and curiosity. He wore a long, black coat with silver trim, adorned with intricate embroidery hinting at his magical prowess. The coat covered a white shirt with billowy sleeves, and his dark trousers were tucked into knee-high leather boots that had a subtle sheen.A mere glance would suffice to recognize him as a noble—after all, he was the son of the High Chancellor of the Armed Nation of Dwargon."Knave, you have deceived me!"

Chapter 60: Miss Zara "Aargh, that was quite the sight," Kael muttered as he adjusted his black leather jacket and started heading down the corridor."Where are Master Kieran and Dogo?" Kael asked himself, not sensing any presence. Dogo was supposed to materialize behind him, as he was sure he would press the teleport wristband.[System Notice: Subject Dogo and Master Kieran are 1000 meters away from your current location.]Kael sighed upon hearing Alexa's voice. It had been long since he last heard from the system, almost as if it had abandoned him."Something must be wrong with this wristband. How could it warp me into a restroom?" Kael muttered as he tapped the wristband repeatedly until suddenly a hologram popped out.It was a blue hologram of a lady with blue hair, twirling on the wristband."Kael Stoneforge," a systematic voice spoke, and his eyes widened. Alexa did not address him by name, so he knew the voice came from the wristband."Who are you, and what are you doing in my
Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 61: The System Left
Chapter 61: The System Left "Since I am already familiar with Master Kieran, I shall visit him first," Kael decided, navigating the labyrinthine corridors.[System Notice: That is not the way to the Military Department. I suggest you use the Teleport Wristband or the map for directions.]Kael sighed, shaking his head. He had been walking down this hallway for what seemed like an eternity. Only upon reaching a dead end did his system notify him he was heading in the wrong direction.He was hesitant to use the Teleport Wristband, as he hadn't mastered it yet, but he had completely forgotten about the map. Turning back, he began studying the Wristband, eventually figuring out how to activate the map. Following its guidance, Kael trudged along, his eyes fixed on the Wristband’s display.After what felt like hours, he arrived at a familiar intersection—the very same one he had started from."Seriously?!" Kael exclaimed in frustration. He had walked in circles, and the map had led him rig
Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 62: Rigors of Training
Chapter 62: Rigors of Training Kael awoke with a start, the first light of dawn seeping through the narrow window of his room. He bolted upright, realizing he had overslept. A quick glance at the sun's position told him he was already late. His heart pounded as he threw on his training attire: a dark, simple tunic, sturdy trousers, and leather boots. Hastily securing his sword at his side, he dashed out the door, his mind racing with a mix of anxiety and determination.The training grounds were already bustling with activity when Kael arrived. Rows of students were engaged in synchronized drills, their movements crisp and coordinated. Master Kieran stood at the forefront, his presence commanding respect. Kael attempted to slip into the back of the formation, hoping to avoid notice, but Master Kieran's keen eyes missed nothing."Stoneforge!" Master Kieran's voice cut through the morning air, stern and unyielding. "You are late. In my training, punctuality is paramount."Kael's cheeks

"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

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
