Lenna walked back to his temporary work station and got to work, but Tanna kept pacing around with quickened steps.
“Speaking of which, how is the situation with the Rift above us? Is it expanding or about to burst? Surely there must be some sort of mechanism put to gauge its ever-expanding effects.”
“It is actually expanding.” Arbert was the one to respond, his fear of Bin slightly decreasing over time. “Although it’s hard to notice it, the Rift is slowly but surely getting bigger. However, the most effective way to monitor it is through the tallest and biggest tower in the city. The Tower of History, which is where

Life as A Servant Chapter 450 : The Tower of Magic (2)
The Tower of Magic was adjacent to the Tower of History; It took the shape of an inclined golden spire, over six hundred meters in height and thirty meters in width, making it the third largest structure in the City of Scholars.Equipped with the shallow mask provided by Tanna, Bin swiftly made his way to the tower, but he did not rely on stealth like his previous endeavour in one of the smaller golden towers.The anti-magic armor set they needed to complete the Blade of Light was stored in the Tower of Magic, and trying to sneak in by imitating the Mana Frequency will not only be a waste of time but also pointless. After all, the tower was heavily guarded from all sides, by automated defensive golems and several hired magic-users.The fastest and most effective approach is a direct confr

Jasbin recognized Bin almost immediately, but he did not say it outloud. It was the same for his three companions. However, the rest of the magic-users considered Bin as a hostile invader and sprung into action the second the wall of sand was destroyed.Amongst the dozens of magic-users, two in particular were eye-catching and clearly strong. They shot toward Bin with an impressive speed, one swept a strangely curved spear while the other, a tall blue-haired woman, cast Ice Magic, causing the ground to freeze and numerous Ice Arrow to fly at the target.Bin backed away toward the now-open room while blocking the arrows with small and floaty masses of golden sand. The spear-using man reached him quite fast, his spear unleashing devastating blasts.In retaliation, Bin made gre

High Scholar Sander Zadar had barged into Elmina’s office and started throwing a furious tantrum. Just a couple of hours ago, a masked individual had broken into the Tower of Magic and stole his finest product while it was under the surveillance of multiple advanced golems and magic-users. “Why are you not sending people after him? This is ridiculous!” The elderly long-bearded High Scholar banged his shaking fist on the table, but that didn’t even make Elmina flinch. She coldly stared back at him and patiently waited till he calmed down. “Sander, we have sent our best people after him. We can only wait and hope for the best.” “What do you mean ‘hope for the best’?! How can he even break into the Tower in the

“It’s him! It’s definitely him!”Jasbin was in Elmina’s office along with a handful of other magic-users: They were the best of the best and they were called on such short notice by High Scholar Elmina Valkyrie.Surprisingly, instead of sending them after Bin, she instructed them to stand here and watch.“There is no need to stop him. This will show us if Tanna’s method is doable or not. But, do be prepared to act if something unaccounted for happens.”The magic-users nodded in unison and resumed watching the spectacle happening in the sky, right above the city and its gigantic blue-colored barrier.With the u

“L-let’s rest… I’m not used to walking for this long.”It soon came to light that Lenna was not an athletic person. He would quickly run out of breath even from walking for a short while. Arbert, however, was as energetic as before, going as far as taking his friend’s backpack from him. They had bet on who would carry it and Lenna lost, but since it was moderately heavy, the bespectacled young scholar was unable to travel long distances without needed rest.Surprisingly, Bin was cooperative and did not complain about their slow pace. He was their vanguard and would sometimes scout ahead and get rid of any Pests roaming the area.The Ghost Cliffs were not that far from the City of Scholars and even with their current speed, they would reac

Bin did not offer an immediate reply, he walked to the bespectacled young scholar and looked down at him with a cold gaze.“And how exactly will you reach your so-desired compromise? Sweet talk them with your eloquence or give them false promises? Promises I’m sure you cannot keep. You need to grow up, kid.”Arbert was standing at the side, looking like someone who wanted to appease the tense atmosphere. Sadly for him, he could only fidget around and raise his hands in a futile manner.Meanwhile, Lenna kept a straight face and unfazed expression as he glared back at Bin. Now that he grew up, especially in terms of appearance, Bin's stoic face no longer looked amicable. It had a bit of grizliness and bloodthirstiness, which could only be acquired after exper

Opposite to the startled ruffians in the tavern, Bin immediately sprung into action. His body transformed into particles of light, which slipped through the small holes riddling the wooden wall.He quickly appeared at the main street of the town and witnessed a scary scene. The hideous Pests were everywhere, swinging their nasty weapons and slaughtering everyone in their way. Although there were a couple of brave souls that tried to fight back, they were no match against the powerful abominations.Bin’s body burst with blinding light, which sent a strong shock wave that blew away the nearby monsters and burned their skin. Long spikes of sand surged from the ground, impaling any charging enemy.Bin advanced slowly, eradicating every Pest in his path, however, he soon re
Life as A Servant Chapter 457 : Magical Ineptitude
After the incident in the town, the mood between Bin and the other grew more tense and their talks became shorter and shorter. Lenna mostly kept to himself and started suffering from nightmares that woke him in the middle of the night.Arbert, however, tried to maintain his cheerfulness but his hollow eyes and weary look betrayed his vain attempts.When they got close enough to the Ghost Cliffs and the towering Elemental Peaks became visible, Arbert finally voiced his deepest thoughts.It was in the middle of night, as the three were camping in an open and rocky area. Bin was cleaning the blood of the Pests off his clothes, not minding the intense gaze he was getting from Arbert.Lenna was half-asleep on a corner, h

Bin’s eyes fluttered then slowly opened. He felt weight on his thighs and chest and when he looked down, he saw Jasmine sound asleep. She had a habit of hugging him in the middle of sleep and half of her body would be pressed against his. It has been a year and a half since they started dating and the embarrassment of sleeping naked or half-naked was no more. Their relationship only got better and they even moved to a new place with Nina, though it wasn’t far from Emilia and Elise. He wasn’t interested in getting a proper job, nevertheless, he did find an entertaining habit, which was quickly developed. With Jasmine’s support and Bert’s countless acquaintances, Bin had opened a cozy small café in a relatively empty street. It wasn’t the best of locations, but he did not care. Bin was fo

Brule River Boreal Forest State, Russia. The forest, excluding wild beasts, was generally devoid of humans. However, today, it was the total opposite. The Russian Government dispatched its military and barricaded the huge region. Jets were flying through the air, trying to scout the ground and eliminate the legions of Pests stationed around the river and in-between the countless trees. However, the most eye-catching thing was the crimson crack hanging in the sky, its blood-red light outshining even the sun. Its mere presence brought for a foreboding and eerie atmosphere as well as a thick fog of the same color. Although well-equipped, the Russian Government did not act recklessly or rashly. They kne

“I won’t be away for long, okay?” “Promise?” Nina, looking a bit sad, lowered her head and tried not to cry. To appease her, Bin gave her a tight hug and repeatedly reassured her that everything will be alright. It has been ten days since his return to Earth and though no one forced him to act, he deemed now as the right time to get rid of the Rifts once and for all. Fortunately, there were no spotted Rifts in M-nation, therefore, Bin would soon have to leave for other countries. “Next time, I’ll bring you to fun places! I will bring gifts back with me, too!” Jasmine also hugged Nina and playfully pulled her c

“Sorry for the wait.”-Angelica “It’s fine.” Replied Bin as he sat back down next to Jasmine and smiled at her parents. While they discussed things, he spent some time chatting with the servants and managed to clear things up with Hyue. It was a good decision to come here and mend past relationships now that he was moving on and turning a new leaf. Unlike earlier, Theodore looked calmer but he was still glaring at him. As for Angelica, her expression was never-changing and, as always, unreadable. “My husband and I are not against your relationship, Bin. I only ask that you take good care of her.” “It shall be done, Madam.” “It better do! If I hear

Bin and Jasmine walked for a while before they returned to the car.“I should be the one ‘walking you home’. Sadly, I don’t have a driver’s license.”Bin sighed and watched as she drove him back to the villa. The trip back home felt brief as they talked on the way, but when they reached their destination, the two were silent.“If you have nothing to do, let’s meet tomorrow.” Suggested Bin as he looked at the white-haired Silver Dragon.Of course, Jasmine agreed with a meek nod. As he was about to get off, she abruptly stretched her arm and grabbed his, thus making him halt his actions.“Jasmine?”

Late at night, after the family had dinner and everyone retreated to their rooms, Bin went downstairs and, as he had expected, found Emilia in the kitchen. She absent-mindedly looked at the dining table and not even his arrival was noticed. Only when he pulled a chair and sat right next to her did she twitch and look at him. “Mother, you’re still worried?” He faintly smiled and gently grasped her hands, which eased the frown on her face. “How can I not be when my son refuses to listen to reason? Everytime, I get to see you for a brief time and then you leave.” “

Barely half a day after he woke up, Bin was in perfect health. However, Ann insisted that stays for two additional days, to which he nodded in obedience. As expected, he received many visits from Bert and the rest. Elise and, especially, Emilia, came every couple of hours to check on him and bring food. “Umm… so, there’s a matter that warrants an explanation. But, I think it’s better to wait till you come home.” Elise, fidgeting, peeled an orange while uttering those vague words. “It would have been better if you stayed silent.” “I was just warning you. At least, that way, you won’t be as surprised. Just brace yourself… okay?” Life as A Servant
Chapter 495 : Reunion
When Bin finally regained his consciousness and opened his eyes, he found himself in an overly-extravagant and spacious hospital room. He took a couple of seconds to look around before slowly sitting up.He wasn’t particularly injured and the overwhelming exhaustion he was subjected to prior and after opening the portal was completely gone, fortunately.“Bin.”Somewhat softly called out to him, thus did his gaze jump to the source of the voice. He was facing Elise, Emilia, and, unexpectedly, the now grown-up Ryne. The three were sitting on a wide leather sofa and chatting quietly only to be startled by his sudden awakening.His mother ran to his side and supported him, fearing that he was experiencing pain.

Chapter 494 : The Coming Of The End (2)
“Hurry up, Bin!” Although she was fending off the horde of Pests, Jasmine could not fight forever. She remained close to Bin and continuously swung her sword at any incoming enemies. At the same time, Bin was strengthening his connection with the white crystal. Slowly but surely, a gentle wave of white light flowed from within his body and started taking the shape of a human-sized portal. Unfortunately, Jasmine was reaching her limits and ended up getting blasted far away. Her body crashed on the ground and rolled a couple of times. Although she hastily got back on her feet and ran back, it wasn’t fast enough to stop the Pests from reaching Bin. With all his concentration focused on the connection, Bin could not defend him
