Chapter 72: By the Blood of Cainhurst

Any human who thinks they can, by their own petty cleverness, gain something from the Chaos Gods will eventually discover that they either fail completely, or receive what they desired in the...

Chapter 71: Foolish Mortals

If this was the Chaos worshipper’s way of provoking her, then Maria admitted he had succeeded.

Her mother’s corpse had been desecrated, and the one most likely responsible for this abomination was none other than her father, Pastor Lynn, in his desperate wish to resurrect Ruth. Nothing could be darker, nothing more ironic. Cha...

Extra ꀤ

A traveler leading a packhorse bearing a massive wooden crate approached Seth Town via the back road. Wrapped tightly in a black robe, not a single inch of his skin was exposed.

“Hey, mate, bit of an incident in the town. Outsiders are barred from entering. I just got kicked out myself, so I’m stopping others from heading in.�...

Chapter 70: Hatred

“You are struck by a Chaos-corrupted. Rolling for Warp shock… Talents [Unshakable Mind], [Godchosen] activate… Due to complex reasons, the Warp shock has no effect on you…”

“You inhale the plague toxins released by the Chaos-corrupted. Constitution check begins… Roll failed—you would suffer disease or mutation… B...

Chapter 69: The Tainted Bloodline

When Maria drank her own blood, forcefully awakening the Cainhurst Bloodline’s power and confronting the childhood trauma carved into this body’s soul, Mr. Green convulsed in the basement as if stricken by epilepsy!

His body jerked and writhed, rolling across the floor.

The vagrant’s filthy rags became...

Chapter 68: Embracing the Past

Although it was merely a replay of memories, with many scenes and figures already blurred, little Miss Maria could still glimpse the splendor of Cainhurst Castle amidst the battle — a battle where blood spilled everywhere, where slaughter was unending, and where lives were relentlessly taken.

Or perhaps, it would ...

Chapter 67: A Toast, to the Warriors

Crunch!

With a sharp, sour crack of bone snapping back into place, Miss Maria calmly forced her left hand back to its normal position. It wasn’t as macho and brash as when Pastor Lynn had straightened his own head, but there was no denying Maria’s ruthless resolve—and she intended to tear her enemies to pieces with it...

Chapter 66: A Formidable Enemy

The gleaming blade faithfully carried out the task entrusted to it by its master, the slicing of steel through air producing a thread of whistling sounds as sharp and chilling as a call for death.

Maria, in a flash, stepped onto a chair and charged toward the altar, her speed like that of black lightning.

Silver light flashe...

Chapter 65: Faith Reversed

Small chapel, front hall.

As agile as a cat, as silent as a shadow, as swift as a blade—Maria moved with breathtaking speed, charging toward home with unwavering intent.

Fortunately, the newly-corrupted aberrants could not intercept her.

That allowed the black-clad nun to preserve a good portion of her strength. By her...

Chapter 64: Even With Nothing

Kill everything alive in this place!

When the Foreigner was entrusted with this task, his weathered, rugged face showed a trace of surprise. No matter how you looked at it, this was an extremely brutal and arduous mission. This was a small town with thousands of people — even if those thousands were pigs standing still to be slaug...

Chapter 63: Grave Digging

The air grew tense for a moment. Pastor Lynn rubbed his dirt-streaked hands together, then futilely tugged at the wrinkles in his clergy robes. With the motion, it became even clearer that the black robe was now smeared with more white-brown dirt — a kind of barren soil found in only one place in Seth Town.

The cemetery.

Sto...

Chapter 62: The Foreigner’s Question

“Stench?”

Maria thought it was just one of that damned Foreigner’s bad jokes. But when she saw the earnest, emotionless look in his eyes, her chest tightened for no clear reason. Ever since Torrent City, that oppressive weight hanging over the heart of the black-robed nun had always been there—yet at this moment, it felt f...

Chapter 61: Sinister Change

[Meditation 2.0] kept Maria von Cainhurst in a state of minimal interaction with the outside world.

She had no sense of the passage of time.

When she opened her eyes again, Maria felt the sudden surge of her Willpower and Perception attributes feeding back the stifling weight of her surroundings. Her ...

Chapter 60: Blossoming Glory, Blood of the Fallen

The power of the Chaos and the High Ones always struck without warning. Even when they revealed a docile, harmless façade in their strange balance, the moment Maria showed the slightest weakness, their temptation and corrosion would cling to her like a shadow—chuckling as they tried to drag the black-robed nun into t...

Chapter 59: The Pastor’s Wife’s Fading

“Hey, Pastor! How about a round of Gwent? I once met a witcher named White Wolf, and ever since he taught me how to play, my life’s been a lot more colorful!”

The foreigner, who had long been wandering the wilderness, pulled out a deck of cards the very first time he met Pastor Lynn. Even Paladins praised th...

An adult man was thrown straight out of a house!

The strength needed for that was far beyond what an ordinary person could possess. At the very least, it would require about ten points in...

[AR] Chapter 14: The Broodmother and the Escape

Leaning against the wall, Ye Xintong slowly shifted her body forward. Beside her, a purple, pulsating cocoon writhed faintly. They had the misfortune of stumbling upon a Corrupted Broodmother in an active state.

Fortunately, all nearby Corrupted Vanguards had already been wiped out. Without sight or...

Chapter 57: Quickening Heartbeats

Felia had noticed that ever since her elder sister returned, their father, though overjoyed, had also become more unfamiliar and frightening to her.

Their mother’s illness had pushed the family to the brink.

For Reverend Lynn and Sister Ruth, a model couple of the clergy, losing the other to serve the Lord first—no matter ...

[AR] Chapter 13: The Last Glow

Inside the massive laboratory building, the group followed Luo Yuan as he worked the control panel of a CNC horizontal lathe, murmuring in awe.

His fingers moved quickly over the buttons, inputting lines of structural programming at high speed. At the same time, he directed Wang Wei and Tian Bo to place resin rods i...

Chapter 56: The Uninvited Guest

The tranquil and peaceful town of Seth awoke to a refreshing clarity after a night of heavy rain. In the crisp morning air, the sound of birdsong filled the streets, and the town seemed to burst back into life. Residents began stepping outside to start their daily work. There was something about the bright, post-rain weather that made hea...

Tier update📳

Hey everyone,

When I first set the membership price at $10, I was only sharing about seven advance chapters. Because that felt a bit low for the price, I dropped it down to $7.

Now there are more than 20 advance chapters, including some from other novels, and I plan to keep adding more chapter.

Before I think about raisi...

Chapter 55: The Crying Man

The miracle bestowed by the Sunlight Princess had not worked as expected. The gods of the solar pantheon—any one of them—possessed power far beyond mortal reach. After her brief surprise, Maria quickly reined in her emotions. As a scholar, she needed to keep her mind calm.

She hoped her mother, Ruth, could answe...

[AR] Chapter 12: Until the Last Drop of Blood

After some rest, everyone had recovered their strength. But the so-called “weapons” they had taken from the activity room were already falling apart. Most were so flimsy they were good only for a sense of security. Only Xintong’s iron rod and Tian Bo’s already-damaged homemade spear were still usable.

“Come to think of it�...

[AR] Chapter 11: The Collapse of the Academy

“No time to waste. Let’s move out now.”

At Ye Xintong’s signal, the Literature Club members began pushing toward the exit.

She held a metal rod she’d found who-knows-where. The others had picked up makeshift weapons of their own—anything to feel a bit safer.

The infected outside had mostly gone silent. Only...

Chapter 54: Ineffective

When Maria saw her mother Ruth again, she was lying in bed. The once-gentle and dignified wife of a priest now had a withered, gaunt face,

When Maria saw her mother Ruth again, she was lying in bed.

The once-gentle and dignified wife of a priest now had a withered, gaunt face, her thin body sunken deep into the soft bedding. Even wit...

[AR] Chapter 10: Dark Emotions

Inside the clubroom, panic continued to spread like wildfire. To these ordinary students, the news of the apocalypse was simply too much to process.

Should they stay or leave?

It shouldn't have been a difficult choice—after all, their supplies would eventually run out—but as regular students, none of them truly believed they had ...

[AR] Chapter 9: Overture of Collapse

August 9, 2025.
In Dekesas, a state within the Federal Union, authorities reported a suspected large-scale meat corruption incident. A massive fungal-like growth had appeared inside a feed storage unit at a major livestock station. That same day, thousands of chickens, hundreds of cows, and various other animals inside the enclosures began sh...

[AR] Chapter 8: The Main Cast Assembles

Chen Fengling carefully adjusted her outfit, gave her soft chest a reassuring pat, and took a deep breath.

“You got this. You can do it.”

She was cheering herself on—not just to make a good impression when reuniting with her old friends, but also to remind herself that it was time to start being more careful.

The apocalyp...

[AR] Chapter 7: Conflicting Feelings / Morning

[Spoilers ahead if you haven't read the free 1-6 chapter in scribblehub]

“Mmm… uuh…”

Under the moonlight, Fengling was instinctively performing some ancient, mysterious ritual.

The clothes Luo Yuan left on the washing machine had somehow ended up on her bed...

Chapter 53: Return to Seth

Normally, the journey from Torrent City back to Seth Territory takes about two hours by steamship, with an additional half-hour of bumpy carriage travel. The entire trip is a real test of how well a traveler’s stomach can handle such constant jostling.

If you’re in the mood, you could dance a little jazz on the boat, sip a drink...
