Treasure hunting in endless ocean Timeworm - Magical awakening
“ So, could you use it ? “ Xena asked nonplussed. Nadia shut up . “You can’t use it ? “ Xena pushed. Indeed, Nadia could not use it. One needs to cross a certain magic threshold to use Waterblade. This needn’t be water sorcery only but any kind of magic. It’s important because it was the only relic of Gavin the great they were able to save. Sometimes, during the darkest periods of her training, Nadia wondered if the waterblade is something as simple as a shaving blade, and all it’s notoriety and sanctity came from later generations. However, her doubts about the origin of her relics does not mean losing an argument with a foreign envoy. “ Could you use it ? “ Nadia questioned smartly. “ I think so. “ Xena answered readily. Nadia snorted. “ You are a shadow assassin, while I am a mere woman, despite being a sorceress. What’s the guarantee you are not working for opposite factions and want to steal our relic to humiliate us ? “ Nadia asked. She did not even consider the poss
Treasure hunting in endless ocean Timeworm - Flame Fury
In a split second, Xena’s blade formed. A Perfectly invisible ice blade, full of cold murderous intent. The border realm of light and shadows was made to stop fire from flowing into the dark, similarly, to stop shadow and smoke encroaching into fire’s domain. The magical barrier did not stop ice or water in any way. The cold blade passed through the destructive red fire embers, each fraying it’s edge into ever more sharp uneven edges. Just besides Madea, another figure started forming, attracting all the destructive red magic to itself. Xena’s blade already passed past the other person. Even if she wanted to, she could not revert her blade’s momentum. Thus, her blade moved forward, and beheaded Madea as Madea wished for. However, it was all for naught, as in that split second before Xena’s blade touched Madea’s neck, she witnessed the flame god’s avatars leaving Madea, and flowing in to the newly appeared figure. “ CASPIAN, PULL BACK” Xena screamed with all of her being.

However, kalim's realization came far too late. He has been advising Dahlia for more than years now. There is no way he could turn his back on her, unless he wants to die. For all her beauty, Dahlia suffered from a strange inferiority complex. She held any man about to leave her with as much tenacity as a quagmire. Any number of pretty words about ideals could be spoken to stop a person from leaving her, but in the end, they all mean only one thing. " Leave me in death. " Kalim believed with her magical talent, Dahlia would be more than capable of conquering all of the world. However, he has forgotten. Drakons had never been the strongest bloodline carrying sorcery. That title belongs to Winter children. Untainted by anything unnatural, the magic of winter children hails from time before the age of heroes, first age of calamities, and some say, it's even older. The winter children had been kings and queens when Drakons were nothing but stable grooms. As inconsequential as

Xena opened her eyes, in the middle of the night. There was a flickering candle beside her. The silk curtain on the ivory white window fluttered in the air. Seabreeze flew in, relieving the heat she was feeling .Only buzzes in her ear have become clear voices now. In front of her eyes, thin sickly blackish red strands floated in the air, all around the place .She frowned, and grabbed one of the threads. “ Dear god of death! I pray for the death of Michael. He is a brute, who forces himself on me every day. He even beats his own son, despite the child being barely five. Worst of all, he has set his sights on my little sister, and I live in fear wondering when he might kill her. Kill him please. Kill him as soon as possible.” a voice whispered in her ears. Xena picked up another strand. It’s similarly a death wish. All the blood red strands floating around her are death wishes for one or other person. However , these kill requests are not her highest priority. She needs to fi

“ I am not quite sure what happened there exactly. What I remember is that Dahlia arrived at the temple. I think the magic of fire reacted to her. I thought it’s dangerous to remain there, and escaped with Caspian. “ Xena explained, skipping all important details. However, it seems it was enough for Nadia’s purpose. “ Fire magic reacted to her ? “ She asked curiously. “ Could you explain that part more in detail ? “ Nadia said, as she settled on the settee in the corner. ‘It was an important detail ? ‘ Xena wondered. She did not think so at that time, for she has grasped magical vision fastest out of all skills when in assassin training. “ Under one condition. You will answer my questions, Quid pro quo. “ Xena proposed. Nadia nodded with some hesitance. Magical knowledge anywhere in the eastern empire is extremely secret. Even the slightest amount of knowledge is hard to come by as long as it’s related to the magic. They hoarded this knowledge like it is more valuable than go

One minute Neil was happily ambling along the streets of the Valhalla, the next moment he was shaking in cold on the floor of the room he locked Sage in. Adele is looking over him concernedly. “ Neil ! Neil ! “ She was calling. “ I am fine. I am here. “ Neil answered. His head felt like it’s weight has increased ten times. He could only hear her as if through water, and he is having trouble keeping his speech straight. Adele’s hand laid on his chest. The next moment, the haze surrounding himself cleared. It was as if one minute he had the worst hangover in human history, next minute, it’s like he has taken brain enhancing drugs. Then, the feeling of over-healthiness faded away. “ Adele ! you would not believe what I have seen. There’s a civilization. It’s like middle ages, but .. there’s land. There was so much land ! “ Neil exclaimed. “ Neil ! we could not go there. That’s the land inside the time seal. “ Adele told him, as she looked straight at Neil. After a moment, the e

Sage was awake. Just one look is enough to know this is the person who has helped Adele from the beginning to end. As Adele and Neil walked in, Sage just looked dolefully at Adele. Both parties kept their mouths shut, waiting for others to speak. In the end, it was the sage who couldn’t endure the silence. “ I am sorry. I never wanted to hurt another being with my research. All I wanted to do was to figure out secrets of MerCity’s civilization in order to fulfill their dream of restoring sector eight to its previous glory. I thought I would be improving the lives of billions. I can't apologize enough for the trauma you have lived through. “ Sage said, her voice solemn. It was different from her previously overly loving tone, and from her extremely sneaky tone that she just had before evil soul was extracted by Adele. “ If you are truly sorry, help us ! “ Adele said, skipping any smalltalk that preceded such speech. Sage nodded. “ But first, I must tell you my story. I was bor

‘ Let’s lock her up and throw away the keys ‘ Neil and Adele’s thoughts synced. At that moment, they could hear each other’s thoughts.

Those are important. We could make camera surveillance with lantern fish. It’s important, I tell you ! ‘ Neil’s thoughts ran off without his control. ‘ Fine. so, what about them ? ‘ ‘ Since this place is outside of the endless ocean, wouldn’t they be nearby ? I think that container could be repaired to host the brain fish once more. We will offer sage to her. ‘ Nei

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.

Barrier - Peace
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

Love story - Date part 2
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. Xena finished her selection of fabrics. She ordered another set for Caspian himself, this time, in yellow and black, with a symbol of a bull. The next announcement came after an hour. All the participants of the spring fair contest are called to a venue. There are multitudes of fabrics, clay, metal pieces, even silver, gold and gems on various tables. On the other side, there are various tools, for making pottery, for making jewelry and various other items. “ Valkyrie had long been known as the city of the craftsmen. Our women have the best of clothes, best of jewelry and best of men when it comes to that. It is your job to prove that valkians have the most dedication when it comes to love as well.

“ Ladies and Gentlemen of Valkrie ! Welcome andddddddddd… .Welcome to the sixteenth sprint fair of lover’s paradise. As always, your response has been more than hot !

As long as answers sync, the couple passes. “ What’s your man’s name ? “ they asked. “ Caspian Hart “ Xena answered, so did Caspian. What’s your girl’s name ? “ was the next question. They obviously are doing this to filter off the random game breakers from entering the game. “ Xena winter child “ Both of them answered at the same time. “ Where did

“ 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. They have dodged death by a hair’s breadth a thousand times. They have overcome insurmountable odds. “ Oh ! Stop laughing, you idiot ! She's not joking. “ Xena said, referring to Nadia. “I am not sleeping with anyone save my wife. “ Caspian answered Nadia after he got control on his ow

“ 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
