Bleap

Chapter 23

I met up with the ex-church lackie and the weird priest in the early morning, when the Sun was barely up and casting long shadows that seemed to coil and twist just out of sight.

Looking at the manse where I'd first faced something so utterl...

Chapter 22

Of all the places I expected to be dragged off to by Luviagelita, like an R-rated dungeon or the very depths of Hell itself, Carnac was most certainly not one of them. Those were my earnest thoughts as I curiously stared up at the large C etched i...

Chapter 21

"It is... cruel of you to show my master such miracles."

Those were the unfair words Gray left to me before shuffling down the stairs in that awkward way of hers, hood pulled close and head hung low as if the world around her was terrifying ...

Chapter XX

(A/N: Okay the roman numerals are getting tedious, I'm switching to the regular ones starting next chapter. That's all. Without further ado, let's get into the chapter.)

The Church was... wholly normal. Nothing like I'd been expecting from h...

Chapter XIX

According to Yvette, Luviagelita Edelfelt, the "Edelfelt Princess" was most like her family in almost every aspect. A hyena looking for the next treasure to feed her greed with. That I was nothing but just another tool to her either. That she was ...

Chapter XVIII

It was a quiet morning on Slur. I sat on the balcony, idly sipping on a cup of sugary tea as I watched the students and pedestrians go about starting their day. Fools. They had no idea that a God among men was watching ov-...er... forget that. The...

Chapter XVII

(A/N: Honestly, planned on doing 2-3 today but then we had a power outage. It's like 45+ Celsius here these days so I just melted and felt like dying.)

When next I came to, my head was resting on something soft, and I had a clear unobstructe...

Chapter XVI

Waver took a deep whiff from his cigar, lying against the armrest of his stained sofa with brows furrowed. Gray stood in a corner of the room, hooded as ever, trying to make herself as small as possible as she stacked the books strewn about his me...

Chapter XV

"What was that spell you used back there?"

We walked down a rotting corridor, eyes moving from door to fallen door just in case those things decided to come back out of nowhere. I'd have discarded my Mystic Eye Killers entirely if not for th...

Chapter XIV

The first thing I noticed when we arrived at our destination was that the place looked dilapidated, and abandoned. The sort of place you'd look at once and decide to avoid forever for fear of it being either haunted, or more likely, a crackhouse, ...

Chapter XIII

The next day passed idly, I listened to Waver's boring lecture about the relativity of names to the baser nature of things and the weight of words that could be perceived as something else entirely in the context of spell-casting relative to their...

Chapter XII

By the time we came out, the Sun had set, darkness crept into the aged district and old buildings made it look like I had stepped into some witch's domain with the way they leaned on one another and the overhead street lamp blinked periodically. I...

Chapter XI

There was a Bounded Field hidden by a piece of illusory wall that gave way when I made like a Dark Souls protagonist and rolled into it headfirst, leaving Luviagelita flabbergasted. That was par for the course considering her definitive lack of in...

Chapter X

"I feel there's something poetic to be said here but the words elude me."

I pointed at the distinctly human bones piled near the dusty wall. They looked chafed, and shattered like some large creature had bitten into them.

It had to be ...

Chapter IX

I didn't mind that Waver had given me an errand to run before even my first day under him ended, on the contrary, I was quite pleased with the development. It helped me cope with the fact that he was helping me on his own dime for no particular re...

Chapter VIII

(A/N: I have risen. I think the shock from the whole thing has faded and my addiction to writing has come back in full force. Sorry, it took a bit. And, those of you who still saw fit to support me despite my absence, you have my deepest gratitude...

Deus Lo Vult

Okay, guys, if you've been keeping up with global news. You'll see that Pakistan and India are entering a war, I live in the former. For days, it's been jets flying overhead like we're in star wars or some shit and my city's been under bombardment...

Chapter VII

After half a mile of evading cars and dodging passers-by while continuously augmenting Luviagelita's own reinforcement spell to affect my running speed, it became rather evident that she hadn't accounted for me doing that very thing. 

A...

Chapter VI

I couldn't believe I'd managed to completely mess up my guess as to where I was.

Magic Circuits. Magecraft. The Clock Tower. The warning against psycho mages all too keen on cutting things open. The distinct lack of any emotion on certain fa...

Chapter V

Luviagelita's escort dropped us off on the strangest street ever. The left side looked like it had leapt through time from the age of kings and knights and decided to plop down on the outskirts of London. All the buildings were all dusky or white ...

Chapter IV

Standing under a bus stop to avoid getting my clothes wet really reminded me of my discrete lack of wealth. Maybe I could have afforded an umbrella, or even visited a charity shop if I hadn't left all I'd pried off those thugs on the table for Mam...

Chapter III

This 'meeting' with a seemingly nice, if not a little quaint, old woman had been something of a humbling experience.

In a simple exchange of words, my intentions for this life had been reduced to a bravado, the sort I'd expect from a sudden ...

Chapter II

Six Eyes, anyone could put two and two together when faced with these eyes. When the adrenaline and excitement wore down to a certain degree, I noticed a stinging pain in my eye that certainly was not caused by exposure to the smoke from cars or t...

Chapter I

"Seems..."

I awoke to cold water running down my face, the soft pitter-patter of seasonal rain and a headache so bad I immediately clutched my head and keeled over with a grunt. 

"Seems... those edibles were the shit after all." 2025-02-27 17:37:29 +0000 UTC View Post

CHP 77: The Red Viper

"Careful now," Tyrion quipped, waddling ahead of the Dornish gentlemen tasked with escorting him to his would-be grave. "I'm like to wrestle your blades from your hands and make off faster than a bobcat."

He was answered by a grunt from a da...

CHP 76: Everything Falls

(A/N: Longest chapter I've written to date.)

Oberyn's little challenge had ended as any would think, with his face planted firmly in the mud the moment he thrust his little spear at me. He took his loss with some grace, more than I was expec...

Question

Alright, guys. I've been mulling over why I can't post on this as regularly as I used to and I think I've finally figured it out. It's because all I need to do now is write a few more chapters to complete this. Now that I know it's ending, I can't...
