Wildheart chronicles Chapter 13: Escaping The Ashes
Bjorn felt a surge of power. His wounds healed instantly, and he felt stronger and more alive.He gripped his hands, feeling the soothing energy flow through him. "This is amazing," Bjorn thought, discovering a new side of his powers.He looked at the initiates with excitement, but saw only fear in their eyes. The scene they had just witnessed terrified them. Bjorn turned to Hana and saw the same fear, though she was more composed.Bjorn himself was scared of what he'd done, but he couldn't let that show now.His face turned cold as he addressed the initiates. "We need to leave. Now. More are sure to come," he ordered, his voice brooking no argument as he looted the adept. His strength and actions were enough to get them moving. He walked up to Hana, who was standing through sheer willpower.With a flick of his hands, he produced some meat from his space ring. "Eat this. You need to recover," he said, handing it to her.Though scared, she knew Bjorn wasn't a bad guy and She was exhau
Wildheart chronicles Chapter 14: Farewell
A few hours after leaving the city, the sun had already set when Stormshadow led them to a secluded clearing off the main road."Come here," he motioned to Bjorn, who walked over. Stormshadow placed a hand on Bjorn and undid his disguise spell. Bjorn's golden blonde hair turned back to its usual dark color, and his body grew lean, with well-defined muscles filling out his clothes. The rough stubble on his chin vanished.His new, handsome appearance stunned Hana, who had watched the transformation.“What kind of magic is this?” she gasped, having never seen such a thorough change.“It’s a disguise spell, nothing more,” Stormshadow replied."It’s a terrible disguise," Hana commented, staring hard at Bjorn. "He looks too handsome and like he's from the western part of the empire. It might draw more attention.""This is my real face," Bjorn blushed, flustered by being called handsome.He had stolen a kiss or two from girls in his village but was still inexperienced with women."Oh," Hana
Wildheart chronicles Chapter 15: Deadly Encounter
“Damn it,” Hana cursed in frustration. It had been a week since Master Shadowstorm’s dramatic farewell, and they had been heading north, avoiding every city they came across. Hana had eagerly tried to learn the lightning demon arts, but found them difficult. “What kind of technique is this? It’s so complicated,” she said, falling in step beside Bjorn. “You’ll learn it with time,” Bjorn reassured her, even though he could not relate to her frustration as he practiced the maelstrom surge spell. Bjorn had no trouble learning the lightning techniques and now understood his master's comment about his good comprehension ability. "I hope so," Hana said with a sigh. "But I'm doing really well with my water spells. I can now perform the maelstrom surge three out of five times." She expected an encouraging comment from Bjorn but when it didn’t come, she noticed him watching other travelers on the road who were giving them strange looks. “What’s wrong?” She had spent enough time w
Wildheart chronicles Chapter 16: Deadly Encounter 2
Bjorn was a whirlwind of emotions, mostly anger at the blacksmith. The betrayal from Waterfox was still fresh, and now the blacksmith had sold him out to the church. He almost lost his temper. Sensing his change in mood, Hana quickly took his elbow, trying to calm him down and reassure herself.“What’s going on here?” Hana asked confidently as she approached the group.The church mages were two men and a woman. The older male, dark-skinned like the southern people of the empire and likely much older than he appeared, stepped forward.“I am Mage Firesong. These are my companions, Mage Julius and Tilda,” he introduced himself with a thick southern accent. “The blacksmith reported this man acting suspiciously, and we’re on a mission to find some fugitives.”“I see,” Hana nodded. “How can we help, Mage Firesong? We are friends of the church,” she smiled.Bjorn nodded in agreement, thinking it best to avoid a fight. “Just a few questions,” Mage Firesong smiled.“Of course,” Hana smiled b
Wildheart chronicles chapter 17: Chase
Two figures dressed in black raced toward a canyon. With a loud thunderclap, they leapt across the chasm, landing powerfully on the other side.Bjorn and Hana had been running for three days without rest, heading straight to the northern borders of the empire. They were determined to reach the Stormveil Order, uncaring that the church inquisitors might figure out their destination.The pressure of their situation had forced Hana to master the lightning demon arts, which boosted their speed. Bjorn was determined to keep moving until he couldn’t move anymore. They took no rests, eating while they ran, pushing their bodies and minds to the limit. But the strain was starting to show, and Bjorn knew they would have to take a break soon.Bjorn's instincts told him that Adept Firesong was no ordinary adept. Firesong was more powerful than the weak adversaries they had faced at the monastery. The only reason he hadn’t caught up with them yet was because his companion, Tilda, was still a novic
Wildheart chronicles Chapter 18: Punching Bag
Bjorn saw their pursuers coming straight for them. They were still far away, needing about three hours to reach Bjorn's spot. But Bjorn knew they couldn't outrun Firesong for long.“I guess I have to figure out how to kill a murderous Adept,” he muttered to himself.Bjorn used some magic to make his shadow jump from shadow to shadow, reaching their position in minutes. He then sent his shadow ahead to scout the path.“Stay close, this will be dangerous,” Bjorn whispered, holding Hana's trembling hand to comfort her.They moved into the marshland, surrounded by thick fog. The ground was soft and muddy, slowing them down. Strange noises echoed around them, making the place feel eerie.Bjorn thought about their situation. “My only advantage is my devouring source, which they don't know about. They're angry, so their judgment is clouded. I can use my surroundings to my benefit,” he mused.“Look for the strongest beast,” Bjorn instructed his shadow. It was a risky plan that could end their
Wildheart chronicles Chapter 19: Awakening The Venomthorn Drake
Firesong was stunned. He expected the boy to go flying back with broken bones, but Bjorn took the hit and even smiled.Bjorn didn’t wait for his opponent to dictate the tempo of the fight. He charged forward, using his lightning demon arts to gain speed. They clashed again, swords and spells ringing through the air.They clashed dozens of times in a minute. Bjorn was always pushed back, blood covering him, but he seemed to heal immediately. Firesong could end the fight quickly but wanted to torment Bjorn slowly. He enjoyed that Bjorn could take a beating, thinking it would prolong his suffering.Bjorn was glad Firesong underestimated him. “If I’m your punching bag, you can be my training dummy,” he thought.He saw this as a chance to train. He had always improved quickly when taking his daily dose of beatings from Stormshadow.He had been practicing the second form of lightning demon arts. The first stage powered his body with lightning, and the second stage covered him in lightning a
Wildheart chronicles Chapter 20: Burnt Out
A second furious roar echoed from the beast, shaking the very air as it sluggishly rose from the lake's deep gorge, gradually picking up speed. Firesong felt a primal terror wash over him, every hair on his body standing on end. "How did I miss something this huge?" he berated himself. He turned to Bjorn and saw his condition was even worse. The beast's roar had shattered Bjorn's lightning armor, leaving him with internal injuries. Bjorn was on one knee, coughing up blood. Despite their enmity, Firesong couldn't help but admire Bjorn's guts and determination as a fellow cultivator. “What is your name, kid?” Firesong asked suddenly. Surprised, Bjorn saw no harm in answering since he needed a moment to stabilize himself. “I am Wildheart,” he declared with conviction. “Remember that name, if you survive today,” Bjorn said with a bloody laugh that turned into a cough. “Now you can die.” Firesong lunged at Bjorn to end the threat, but before he could reach him, a huge, armored, sca
