Anw sorry for the delay. Work stress isn’t fun. It sometimes just kills my will to write.
Happy reading!

Something I was initially reluctant to even
The roar outside was downright thunderous. It was an ocean of noise crashing even through the stone walls of the chamber I was in. Though this hall was tucked deep within the participants’ quarters, separated from the Colosseum’s grounds by a single winding tunnel, I could still feel the crowd’s collective pulse pressing in from a...
2025-11-03 00:30:02 +0000 UTC View PostI stared at the swirling potion bottle in my hands, the liquid inside twisting like it had a mind of its own. Then, with a flick of my wrist, I tossed it upward, only for it to vanish midair. My gaze dropped to the golden ring on my finger, and sure enough, I could feel the bottle settling neatly inside.
Finally. FINALLY! My very own stora...
2025-10-30 02:30:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe engine of action could be instinct or will. On the surface, the difference was plain as day. Instinct was a birthright, a seed planted by nature itself. Will, however, was a graft, its growth shaped by a thousand different winds and weathers. And yet, they were two vines from the same root. Action born of instinct was guided by an inborn com...

It also ended up way longer than planned, so I had to split it into two parts. As an apology, I’m working on some new epic artworks... I’ll drop them with the next chapter. Perhaps.

2025-10-21 03:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostI didn’t care much for the sudden spectacle, not even with my Fire Gland mutating on its own like some restless organ trying to evolve out of spite. Shoving down the discomfort crawling under my scales, I dug a claw into my palm, pierced the skin, and slammed my bloodied hand into the Dragonfire. The instant my blood met the flames, they flare...
2025-10-16 02:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostWell, it seems Lysska’s cautious nature finally proved its worth. Not that I’m any stranger to caution myself. But to think there was an actual Gold here— one deliberately smothering her core, pretending to be harmless just to lull everyone into comfort before pulling a vanish-and-slaughter move… that was a touch dramatic.
“Ahh, the moonlight… so radiant tonight! Look how it washes this garden in that silvery hue. Everything takes on such quiet splendor when the world turns nocturnal. Night truly is beautiful, wouldn’t you agree?”
Once again, the same feminine voice drifted into Levko’s ears. And, just like before, he nodded in agreement. She was...

“Are you sure you don’t want to talk with them?” Lotte’s singsong voice resonated in my head, her enormous draconic muzzle resting lazily on a mountain like it was a sofa meant for titans.
“Well… not exactly sure if I do. Pulling them here would lock them in real-time suspension, and if they...

By definition, high intelligence should mean razor-sharp thinking, insight bordering on genius, maybe the sort of stuff where you instantly spot patterns others miss, or recall knowledge with textbook accuracy, or speak like a philosopher who swallowed a dictionary.

2025-09-20 01:30:03 +0000 UTC View PostAlice once again peered through the eyes of the body she was hitching a ride in, the stranger whose vision she wore like a borrowed mask. Her true self, however, was perched atop her host’s shoulders, still as a doll. The pristine white dress she favored rippled faintly with the air, and her porcelain face was veiled by a strip of runic cloth ...

2025-09-11 02:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostDvina snarled as she stormed into the warehouse, kicking the doors wide enough for the hinges to regret existing. Every enforcer inside now lay sprawled across the floor, breathing slow and steady. No wounds, no blood, no signs of a fight, just peaceful, almost blissful slumber.
She pushed deeper inside, scanning every corner. No sign of t...
2025-09-07 00:30:22 +0000 UTC View PostFailure… might as well be erased from the dictionary. What even counted as failure? For some, it was anything they could dress up with excuses, grand claims about how the universe had singled them out for misfortune, all despite their supposed “talent” to win.
