Chapter 66: The Challenge **Kael's Room**"What was that all about?" Kael asked Freya. She sat on the bed, her tunic beside her, while he perched on the reading table."What was what about?" she retorted, causing Kael to scoff."Thou wouldst feign ignorance.""I know, but I am not prepared to speak of it," she replied, and Kael stood."Thou knowest what? I should have ignored thee instead of being dragged into thy mess.""Our mess. Thou art my master, and I thy servant. Thy troubles are mine, and mine are thine," she said, turning to face him."Thou usest me to free thyself from whatever clutches ensnare thee. I am sorry if thou art disappointed," he said before leaving the room."Disappointed," she mumbled to herself. "I am sorry I cannot reveal anything to thee, Kael, but I expect no disappointment from thee." She sobbed quietly, clutching the bedsheet as Dogo entered the room.She quickly jumped up and grabbed her tunic."What art thou doing in my room, miss?" Dogo inquired."I am

This is the first time in history of Nevermore for a Basic student to challenge a Departmental student - a Noble student of the Military Department. It was noon already, Everyone gathered in the open field waiting for the fight to commence. A ring has been created and some students have started placing bets. It's a combat signed by the authorities of the Nevermore Academy. A combat prize is the instructor of the Basic classes. Qin Feng stepped into the ring causing the crowd to cheer happily. He was donned in his navy blue tunic, a white shirt and a black trouser. His boot was different from the others and his scabbard was tied to his back. He's all ready and all set, waiting impatiently to finish off Mei Ling and finally win his prize. Last night, he was dreaming of the wonders he'll perform with Professor Astrid. He couldn't wait - He just couldn'

Chapter 68: The Duel II“Wanna surrender?” Mei Ling asked with a smirk which infuriated Qin Feng the more. “I underestimated you, Mei Ling. You proved to be a worthy opponent but now you'll face my wrath.” Qin Feng declared when he flinged one sword towards Mei Ling who reacted by flinging his two axes. Qin Feng slapped the two axes away with his sword while Mei Ling caught the sword by the blade and twirling it when he held it at the right position as the two faced each other. “Mei Ling.. This is your end.” Qin Feng declared when he stabbed the ground with his sword causing a straight line to appear on the ground heading towards Mei Ling. “Swordsman Technique: Earth Flare.” Qin Feng cried out when he twisted the sword stabbed to the ground causing dozens of blades to flare up all heading towards Mei Ling’s direction. Mei Ling leapt into the air evading the first dozen of blades and then tightened his hands on the hem of the sword as he countered the Earth flaring swords while de

Chapter 69 [Military Department VS The Basic Class] “Kael Stoneforge.” The four students exclaimed all at once as they stated at the figure standing in their middle with a surprise look. “Hehehe.. That was a lame attack you threw there. I was able to deflect it with a single strike.” Kael chuckled lightly when a smirk appeared on his face. “I'm 100% sure you aren't the one that deflect the attack Kael. What can a looser like you do?” Qin Feng asked causing the others to burst laughing. Even Mei Ling didn't believe that it was Kael who had saved him from his brutal fate. “Hmph.” Kael inhaled heavily and placed his both hands in his pocket. “Master.. You're wonderful.. Show them that they're the looser not you.” Freya screamed out her lungs and Kael chuckled. “My Servant has spoken.. The four of you against me… afterall, I'm a basic class student… I can't watch you imbecile….” He couldn't complete his speech when Ming charged against him at once with a loud cry when he leapt int

Chapter 70: Kael Won “Why did you save me?” “Why would I save you?” “I don't know. Maybe you want to prove that you're not a looser.” Mei Ling answered causing Kael to chuckle. They were both standing at the window of the Basic Classroom staring at the sun which was setting. “Prideful but not selfish. What a twist individual you're.” “I'm not proud. I just dislike you.” Mei Ling stated. “Why? Oh.. I get. Because I'm a Noble. You dislike all nobles isn't it? and your request is for the commoners to be in the same standard with the nobles.” Kael explained and Mei Ling smirked. “Who will thought you're this smart?” He asked prompting Kael to let out a short laughter. “You can never tell.. Afterall, I was abandoned by someone I needed the most, so I've to work things out by myself.” “Whatever.. It doesn't change the fact that you saved not just me but the whole Basic Class and Professor Astrid. I owe you one and I'm ready to pay to make us even.” Mei Ling said to him. “How abou
Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 71: Kael and the Queens
Chapter 71: Kael and the QueensThe outcome of the Challenge between the Military Department and the Basic Class had a significant effect on Nevermore Academy and on Kael.Many people who had looked down on him now respected him, while others saw him as a threat, earning him more enemies. Despite this, many people wanted to befriend him, but Kael wasn't the type to be easily cajoled. He wasn't the kind to normally mingle with others. He believed this habit was related to his past world. He always wanted to be alone and had almost achieved that, except for the lady who claimed to be his servant.Freya was seen walking behind him in the labyrinthine halls as they headed towards the office of Miss Zara, who happened to be Kael's instructor.It was a new day, and Kael had been summoned by Miss Zara to her office. He had completely forgotten about the summoning. It was Freya who reminded him and insisted on following."We could just warp there," Freya complained bitterly. They had Teleport
Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 72: His Servant
Chapter 72: His Servant Kael faced the four girls with fierce determination in his eyes. They stood ready, each exuding a powerful aura. Sarai, the girl with the eye patch, stepped forward with a smirk."You thought you could get away scot-free, huh? You took my toy away from me. The rest may be scared of you, but I'm not. I'm Sarai, and these are my comrades: Elara, the mage," she said, pointing to a girl with silver hair radiating magical energy. "Rhea, the swordswoman," she gestured to a tall girl with short black hair holding a long sword. "And Vesper, the enchanter," she finished, indicating a petite girl with dark green eyes and an air of mystery around her."You're outnumbered, and I'll make you plead for mercy," she concluded.The hallway was filled with students eagerly watching the confrontation, whispers buzzing among them.Kael took a deep breath, knowing he had to be cautious. The last thing he wanted was to harm any innocent bystanders. He adjusted his stance, readying
Chronicles of Aetheria Chapter 73: Freya was Poisoned
Chapter 73: Freya was Poisoned "How is she? Has she woken up?" Kael asked immediately after the nurse stepped out of the ward Freya was admitted into."No. She hasn't woken up yet, but she's responding to treatment," the nurse replied, causing Kael to gnash his teeth. The feeling to kill those four girls overwhelmed him that even the nurse could see the terror in his eyes."You can go see her, but do well not to disturb her," the nurse said before leaving his sight quickly, before he could direct his anger at her.Kael quickly rushed into the ward and slowly shut the door so that the noise wouldn't disturb her. She lay on a stretcher with a drip connected to her hand, and her eyes were closed.Kael went closer and grabbed one of her hands. He sniffed in the tears that threatened to roll out of his eyes."How could you take such a risk, Freya?" he asked, looking at her calm face, hoping she'd provide him with an answer."You took the blast knowing fully well it would result in this.

"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

Chapter 84: Abducted
[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 Intimacy
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
