Treasure hunting in endless ocean Barrier - The beginning of the end
Dan Frost stood in front of an old tree stump, wondering if it really contained the seal of the world. Most of the magic he knew needed blood sacrifice. So, he cut his palm with a dagger. The red blood fell on the white tree stump, staining its pristine white wood with bloody red. . Dan watched the tree stump in surprise, as the blood began to vanish right in front of his eyes. The tree stump is not even level, it’s slanted. The blood vanished clean off as the drops spilled towards the lower edge. He is too drunk and shocked to react. Merilyn was still in shock of seeing him removing the pommels. In fact, these glass pommels are a test that’s given to both masters and knights. All they have to do was to retrieve the pommels, but they never came off the tree stump. They were as tight as nails nailed into the wood. Neither the strongest man, nor the smartest mage could figure out any solution to the problem. The glass pommels were old. They were from a time before the tower it

The temperature increased as the Drows walked north. It looked like any time they could reach an area with thin ice. However, just after three days of them starting the journey, temperature fell again. Not a fall from one or two degrees, but a temperature difference of hundreds of degrees. So much so, even the drows who have the highest fire power, greatest cold resistance could not move forward. However, they could not give up like this. Thus, they retreated to the nearest space station. This is how they came in.Each space station is usually associated with another four stations in four directions. Since they could not go forward, they must go sideways. Neerus had an ominous feeling. Thus, he divided the group. “ Lady Druid, Saugus, Orion and Taurus will go right. Althea, and the team will go backwards. Hermes and party will go right. One space mage accompanies each team. Grandmage Cosmos stays with me. In each space station, you will make space marks for the wild seeds comm

Orion and his companions ran far. The approaching cold spell did not stop at all. The portals crumbled one after another as the space time anomaly and the weather hit at the same time. The last portal’s altar stones were cracking as they lifted their feet up to enter the space portal. Taurus, who had been running behind the group to protect them, lifted up grand mage Cosmos. “ Focus only on maintaining the tunnel ! “ he screamed at the old man. They ran away for four more space stops before they noticed they left the anomaly behind. The caravan is not much behind them. “ This anomaly is not natural.” Grand mage Cosmos said, as he looked back at the sky, where formless black lightning was spreading silently among the starry sky. If not for the starlight vanishing behind this black lighting, they wouldn’t even know a space time anomaly existed. “ I have seen it once before. “ The mage said, as he breathed heavily. His mana is exhausted. He could not take another step. All

Nemo who’s slowly swaying in its exclusive floating water bubble suddenly opened eyes. The fish set its sight on Neil, who was sleeping all too sweetly. A laser-like beam emitted from its eyes and touched Neil’s forehead. The next moment, a fire drill sound went off in Neil’s head, startling him awake. “ what !? where !!.. where’s the fire ? “ Neil asked, frantically looking around. However, there’s no fire anywhere nearby. Slowly, Neil remembered there’s no fire to be had on the endless sea. Adele kept the lights up with magic. Everything else is done with mana too.The only fire lit is in the kitchen, which they make sure to put out safely every day. However, before his brain could even come up with this explanation, his gold fish assistant Nemo has taken on the reddest of red colors resembling lava. The water bubble even started emitting steam. “ Nemo ! “ Neil shrieked. He put his hand out to remove the fish, only to scald his hand. Thankfully, that bit of pain woke him u

Neil read over the explanation of the quest once again. In simple language, it went like this. Time worm is like a tardigrade that digests everything. Yet, even a tardigrade would have to poop sometimes. Unlike the normal beings, the Time-worm poop is chaotic time and space fragments, which cause space time anomalies. Unfortunately, a Drow king was caught in the space time anomaly this time. Khazhan the starbeast worked like a colony of bees. Every one of its soul fragments has the power to take root in another being and grow to a full fledged starbeast. Its growth rate increases exponentially when in the right kind of host. In a day, it forms the larva form, which is called Sith. In a hundred days, the sith will create a cocoon, to let itself mature. In three years, the cocoon will break, giving birth to a young starbeast. Even the young starbeast is at level hundred. However, it is twice as powerful as any other mythical creature. That is, compared to the kraken, its let

Winterchildren remained for a day in the field, retrieving all the horses, taking care of any deserters and such. Dan led a hundred man team using roughly built ropeways to cross into Strongfort, to the castle's surrender. After some thought, Sasha joined Dan inside the castle. The staff they were used to were mostly dead, or were in such bad shape, Sasha couldn’t help but shed tears. The cook Mary, who made the best meat pies, had her thumb cut off because Lord Flayer did not like her meat pie. The stable groom Harken was flagged till the flesh on his back in shreds because Rogue’s horse liked the touch of the Harken more than his own. Each and every person in the castle had a story. Sasha assembled all the staff in front of them. “ I know many of you are frightened. I also know Flayers were your lords. As long as you confess what you have done; as long as you provide evidence that helps the Winterchilds, you will be forgiven. I will even keep you in service. “ Sasha p

Orion and his party set off towards their main camp on foot. This is the last leg of their journey. Cosmos looked at the back of Orion in contemplation. ‘ Lord Orion ! I thought you were the most unbefitting ruler I have ever seen. You were timid, shy and silent. Now I see, I couldn’t be more wrong ! You were silent because you had nothing to speak ! you were timid because you were facing the unknown ! Even at such a young age, you were not reckless like Neereus and I. I really misunderstood you. ‘ Taurus looked at Orion likewise. ‘ I always wondered why uncle insisted on you as the heir. After all, I am more powerful, decisive and have leadership ability. Now I see. With me on the throne, the drow kingdom would only survive as it was. With you at the hem, it could weather any storm and reach new heights with every calamity it faces. Ah ! to be thwarted in such a manner … ! But for the drow kingdom, I will submit for now. You better not disappoint me, Orion Starlight ! ‘ Taurus t

Reborn Drows
While Adele and Neil were discussing these details, Orion and his subjects were busy as bees. The flame crystals brought back by Neil had been handed over to the Drow king. At the time, the most vibrant flame crystal was placed in a cradle, in the center of an altar. Five Drows surrounded the altar, looking at the circle pointedly. Orion stood in the head position, the five Drows started chanting. After a time, the Drows stopped chanting and looked at the center, where a flame crystal was placed. Their eyes are full of expectation. Nothing happened. The light of hope in their eyes dimmed at the result. Their gazes turned to Orion, as if asking if they should continue. “ Continue. “ Orion ordered. The king looked on emotionlessly, despite the turmoil going on inside his head. Orion’s newly acquired ‘King’ title is not steady yet. Most of the old leaders did not agree to support Neil, but Orion just pushed it through, by the virtue of providing food and a safe place for Drows.

Sasha woke up quite late. she was lying on the furs in front of fireplace, like a kitten. She hadn't slept this well for a long while. It’s almost like a dream. Perhaps it was, given Adele was standing in the corner, staring straight at Sasha. Sasha wondered why she was able to sleep this well in the middle of a battle field. The answer was surprisingly simple. Because she was surrounded by family, and friends. Valerie fought with her life on line to protect Sasha, despite being a Snorc. Dan … he smelt like home. There are no other words for it. He was her only family, until Rudy arrived here, and probably would be her only light, when the world becomes cold and dark. Dan and Valerie's predictions about Snorc peace treaty being a ruse came true. Even so, the Snorc attack came far too fast. So much so, the defense could not even gather compleetely. Dan’s arm is still holding hers as woke. He held her hand on one side, and the hilt of the sword on the other side. W

The smallest crack
Neil’s heart filled with unspeakable dread when he looked at the invisible shield membrane slowly covering up the temple. Every cell of his body rejected that shield with all of its being. Neil acted involuntarily. “ Retreat ! “ he screamed at the top of his lungs. His desire to take every last one of the elves with him powered his next spell. ‘ Collect ‘ Neil commanded with all of his being. His magic exploded, pulling all the nearby flame crystals, every last one of the flames whooshed out, becoming a red crystal as they rushed towards Neil. Neil, with Merlin on his back, rushed as fast as he could towards the portal that’s becoming unclear by the second. The space has become destabilized, and the time space continuum broke as the shield continued to cover the flame temple. The black flame in front of the priest is still burning, the remaining four Tomoe of the flames are still alit, but all the other flames are gone. It’s only then Neil understood the scale of

Neil retrieved his spear, changed it into a chinese slaughterer broadsword, with about three foot pole and one and half foot blade. He twirled the blade slightly, the necks of three priests were cut off. [ Experience + 5 ] [ Experience + 5 ] [ Experience + 5 ] At the same time, Merlin was not silent. He stabbed a priest, then twirled and beheaded another. [ Experience + 10 ] The message popped up. Like that, Neil and Merlin danced in the courtyard. After their decimation of fifty priests, the priests ran away, and grouped together among them. They went for the necklaces of the fire priests, coalescing the necklaces with their own. “ Merlin ! Collect the red necklaces. “ Neil commanded. The next moment, the mana blade in Merlin’s hands vanished. He stuck to Neil’s back, while Neil cut off the head, Merlin collected the necklace. They worked tirelessly, decimating the priests. However, there was no end to them. “ Blluuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrroooo

Event Dungeon begins
While setting up camp meat just retrieving their modular home for Neil and Adele, it meant something far more complex for Drows. All the space mancers came together with their latest catch of space crystals. Then, they set up a hexagonal space barrier around a gigantic field, isolating the space from the time worm. Cosmos gave an unnecessarily long explanation, which could be summarized into ‘ this way, we don’t get sucked into the time worm’s belly accidentally ‘. The memories are cut off when Caspian and Xena enter the temple - however, at this point, Neil has come to a conclusion about one thing. They never entered the time worm’s inside. They only fought in an ephemeral space that reflected the fire temple, they did not go inside the fire temple exactly. However, the things he had in his hands are real. In Particular, land tokens have come up with real land. That means only one thing. That the real land tokens are still out there for him to grab. On top of that, he has s

Xena did not explain her intention. Obviously Caspian spent the entirety of the next hour in confused anticipation, while everyone around him laughed at him knowingly.

“ Hey! Stop laughing at me, you moron. “ Xena ordered Caspian bossily. “ I am not laughing at you. I am just happy we both lived till today. “ Caspian said, chortling with laughter. The words brought a hard stop to the amusement of Nadia and Tara, while Xena shared his happiness. “ Indeed ! We still have today.” Xena said, sitting down at the edge of Caspian’s bed. To be truthful, it is quite amazing. They were thrown out of the capital city in a time of strife, walked through five battles, and countless skirmishes. They crossed the sea ! Then they went to institutions which require one to be beholden to them until death, yet, they both are sitting here, free!It is nothing short of a miracle.

“ Caspian Hart ! You moron ! You stupid imbecilic idiotic jarhead ! “ Xena exclaimed, as she threw her hands on his neck. “ Hey! What’s with the over reaction ! I did not die ! “ Caspian mumbled, a hand rubbing soothingly on Xena’s back. Xena stopped crying after some time. Caspian held her lightly, enjoying the rare instances where Xena actually shows some emotion. “ What day is it ? “ he asked, after Xena pulled back from him. “ You still have the gall to ask for the day ! It's the thirtieth day after the valhallan new year. “ Xena told him. “ it’s .. My god ! Was I asleep for ten days ? “ Caspian asked in shock. “ How many days did you think it was ? “ Xena asked him angrily. “ Just .. Right after the woman in red left. She was so scary. “ Caspian exclaimed. “ Woman in red ? Madea ? “ Xena asked, an ominous feeling rising in her heart. Caspian shook his head. “ The other one. The whining fire spirits wanted her to submit to them. She ate them all ! I hid because I was a
