If she were to leave behind an incapable heir, the empire would undoubtedly collapse like a house of cards within a mere handful of years, crushed beneath the weight of these towering beings.

As Ladia pondered the weighty matters at hand, her hunger pangs were finally appeased by the arrival of her long-awaited meal. With a regal wave, she instructed the maids to place the delectable spread on her table.

Once they departed, she wasted no time in devouring the food with an uncharacteristic voracity, as if she were a ravenous beast rather than a princess of noble lineage.

Her stomach, in protest of its prolonged neglect, emitted a symphony of growls that would have surely caused her cheeks to flush with embarrassment had there been anyone present to witness it.

Amidst her indulgence, Ladia's eyes caught sight of the open drawer in her table, revealing the hidden blue stone used for receiving important reports.

A realization struck her like a bolt of lightning - she had forgotten to at

    "Richard," I called out, snapping him out of his daze."Yes?" he replied, his attention now fully on me."I've scoured Vermillion City and its neighbouring towns, but the biggest aura stone I've stumbled upon is about this big," I said, using my fingers to demonstrate its size.It was no larger than a tennis ball.Unlike mana stones, aura stones were a whole different breed. As the name suggests, they contained aura instead of mana. It was a peculiar world I found myself in.Aura stones were even more elusive than mana stones, despite mages being far less common than knights or warriors who relied on the aura.In other words, there was an abundance of mana stones due to the scarci

    "The hour of battle has dawned, my friend. The mighty Ifrits clash with the intruders of the deep, while the noble ducal families unleash a relentless war upon the ferocious Beast Kingdom. Ah, can you feel the thrill in the air, Sir Baron?" Richard exclaimed with a gleeful tone, his eyes ablaze with excitement.Richard exclaimed with fervor, "Behold, the elixirs of rejuvenation! As the battles loom on the horizon, our potions shall be the saviors of the day! Mine, and ours!" His laughter reverberated through the air, causing his plump physique to jiggle in a merry dance."I have conducted extensive trials on the mass production of the Mid-Grade healing potions, and their sheer abundance alone will sway the nobles to our cause! But this potion, oh this legendary elixir of healing! Even the esteemed royal and ducal families will be left with no choice but to plead for our supply."I smirked, challenging his grandiose claims.

    In the palm of my hand rested a stone of extraordinary proportions, radiating an ethereal glow.It was none other than an aura stone.[Intermediate Aura Stone]I stumbled upon an aura stone, far more potent than any I could ever hope to find in a mundane store. It appeared that acquiring such high-quality stones was a challenge for even the most seasoned mercenaries, perhaps due to the scarcity of monsters roaming the surface.This particular stone belonged to a fearsome creature known as the Sapilisk, a beast of Disaster rank. It was a rarity to find such a formidable foe in the vicinity, and the nearby cities lacked the means to actively hunt it down.To vanquish a beast of this magnitude, one would require the combined might of seve

So now that this monstrous creature is right in front of me, you better believe I'm not leaving empty-handed.Even the Shadow Fang seemed to sense the danger emanating from the human, freezing in its tracks.It slithered through the trees, seamlessly blending into the dark overgrowth.From a hidden vantage point, Zikk observed the battle unfold from a distance.As the one responsible for keeping an eye on the candidates, there was no way he would let Ethan Slayer out of his sight for even a moment.When he first learned that there was a Sapilisk lurking in this forest, he was taken aback.His shock only intensified when he discovered that Ethan had brought his entire team along to hunt down the Sapilisk.A ragtag crew of B-rank and C-ran

    It's been a mere day since we vanquished the formidable shadow fang. And now, to everyone's astonishment, the once fearsome creature was dutifully tilling the fields while the farmers stood in awe, their eyes wide with wonder.Though the sight was undeniably extraordinary, it seemed that the residents had grown accustomed to the peculiarities I had brought into their lives. They had adapted, embracing the unexpected and adjusting to the new normal. However, there were still a few who trembled with trepidation, hesitant to approach too closely.Naturally, whenever an outsider dared to venture near the field, the shadow fang effortlessly blended into its surroundings, concealing its true nature."I'm sure you have countless questions swirling in your minds, but all you need to know is that this little serpent is on our side," I assured them, my words acting as a balm to their troubled hearts. Strangely enough, the serpent had become a source of trust and reliability. In the eyes of the

    Yet, despite the devastation, it was clear that such cunning tactics alone would not be enough to vanquish the million-strong horde that continued to darken the sky.The fiery arrows proved futile against the relentless swarm, barely making a dent in their overwhelming numbers.All hope seemed lost as the cursed critters threatened to ravage the precious crops, leaving everyone in despair.But lo and behold, to the astonishment of all, including the ever-skeptical Zikk, the swarm that had ominously hovered above vanished into thin air, leaving behind a sense of relief and wonder.The jubilant farmers erupted in cheers and adulation, their voices echoing through the fields as they bowed before me."The Baron's wisdom prevails!""The Baron's wisdom prevails!"I couldn't help but clear my throat, basking in the sweet melody of their praise, my ego swelling with each reverent word."What if those pesky intruders decide to make a grand return?"

    My foresight was a tad askew.I anticipated the Swarm's arrival in Ice Demon City to take a few days, considering they had experienced the might of my white flames.It appears I may have overestimated my abilities.To my surprise, the very next day, the horde of hornets returned.The entire population of Ice Demon City held their breath as a portion of the sky transformed into darkness, courtesy of the buzzing insects.Perched atop the wall, just above the gate, I had a bird's-eye view of the frantic preparations that had been accomplished in less than twenty-four hours.Numerous groups of individuals were scattered across the farmlands, diligently safeguarding the crops.

    It's a peculiar twist of fate that these hornets, once fermented, would yield a venom so potent that it could work wonders for our crops.Imagine, after just fifteen days of fermentation, the lifeless bodies of these hornets would transform into a precious venom sac, brimming with potential.All we had to do was extract the venom from these sacs and blend it with a paste made from the finest Royal Daisies.According to the ancient tome of Necrosmith, a book that Wise had studied with unwavering dedication, this concoction would bestow upon our crops the ability to grow at an astonishing rate, doubling their yield and ensuring a bountiful harvest.As I observed the multitude of residents emerging from their homes to gather the lifeless bodies of insects, a mischievous gri

  • Demon's Evolution   The Chosen Commanders

    The Dwarven Kingdom, a land renowned for its glittering wealth, held its breath. The Brightwing Empire’s meager offer, a desperate plea for aid, was all they had to entice the notoriously hard-drinking mercenaries. Even if their weapons were outdated, their reputation for unmatched effectiveness in battle preceded them. Surely, that would be enough.“Your Majesty,” a guard murmured, his voice barely a tremor in the air. “They have arrived.”Princess Ladia, lost in a labyrinth of thought, startled slightly. She had wrestled with the decision for what felt like an eternity, but finally, a solution had emerged. All that remained was to face them, to meet their gaze and offer her hand in this desperate alliance.Viscount Lamiel, a man whose arrogance was only surpassed by his thirst for gold, strode into the royal garden, flanked by a legion of equally boisterous mercenaries. Princess Ladia recognized most of them – the nobles summoned by the crown, their faces etched with a mixture of g

    The scene unfolded with brutal efficiency. Several soldiers, their faces grim and resolute, descended upon Drew and the other soldier, their movements swift and decisive. There was no struggle, no desperate pleas for mercy. They walked away with heads bowed, accepting their fate with a stoic silence that spoke volumes of their resignation.Ryle, his expression a mixture of weariness and amusement, ran a hand through his hair, a sigh escaping his lips. "What a waste of a perfectly good sleep," he muttered, his voice laced with a hint of exasperation. "Young men like myself need our rest, yet everyone seems determined to disrupt my slumber over such trivial matters."His gaze shifted to me, and a playful smile curved his lips. "Allow me to introduce myself," he said, extending a hand towards me. "Ryle Green, third son of Count Green, and as you might be able to tell, the future commander of this very army." He spoke with an air of unwavering confidence, his words carrying the weight of

    Two soldiers from a rival camp, their boots crunching on the gravel path, happened upon the conversation. One soldier, his face contorting with barely suppressed mirth, clamped a hand over his mouth, desperately trying to stifle a chuckle. His companion, sensing the impending eruption, jabbed him in the ribs with an elbow, a silent plea for decorum. But the laughter, like a trapped spring, was too powerful to contain. Tears welled in the soldier's eyes, threatening to spill over as his shoulders shook with silent mirth. Finally, with a strangled cry, he burst into a full-blown guffaw. "Hahahaha! If it's the Young Master leading us! Hahaha! We'll be able to… Pft! Hahaha!"The sound of his uncontrolled laughter echoed through the camp, drawing curious glances from nearby soldiers. Gaston, his face a mask of confusion and irritation, turned to the source of the amusement.

    The unyielding army of the Ice Demon City had been journeying for a considerable number of weeks, traversing a multitude of cities and towns along the way. During our sojourns, we would occasionally restock our supplies, find respite in taverns, and often in the great outdoors, before resuming our arduous trek.Given the unfortunate circumstances, we were informed that the Ice Demon City was the most distant of all cities from the capital. This reality meant that we were among the last to receive the urgent message, compelling us to join the ranks of the other nobles and their armies in the capital.It was in the fourth week of our relentless march that we finally arrived in the grand and magnificent Capital city. The journey had been long and arduous, but our determination never wavered, as we knew our presence was required in these critical times. I had already surmised that the majority of the other nobles and their forces would have already amassed in the capital, readying themse

    As the first light of dawn broke through the windows of the guest house, Miron found himself indulging in a breakfast that was nothing short of exquisite. The flavours were so delightful that he couldn't help but admit to himself that it had been a long time since he had enjoyed a meal as delicious as this one.Before long, Miron was summoned by the lord of the Ice Demon City. With a gracious wave of his hand, the lord invited Miron to take a seat on the soft and ornate sofa in the grand hall. Miron, still feeling a bit tense and on edge, quickly obliged and sat down.Despite the gravity of the situation and the impending battle that lay ahead, the lord of the Ice Demon City seemed completely at ease. He sat on his throne, casually eating his food and even humming a tune that was both strange and captivating. Unable to contain his curiosity any longer, Miron finally mustered up the courage to ask, "My lord, how can you remain so calm and untroubled? Surely you must feel some fear or

    "You won't find Baron Ethan in the mansion," Zikk stated, his hand resting lightly on Miron's shoulder. "He should be in the Endless Forest, training his soldiers."The gesture, though seemingly warm and reassuring, sent a chill down Miron's spine. He sensed a veiled warning in Zikk's words, a subtle reminder of the stakes involved. This was no ordinary mission; it was a delicate dance, a test of Miron's competence and discretion."I am busy," Zikk continued, his tone shifting to one of finality. "I'll get going."Miron, still reeling from the weight of Zikk's revelation, blurted out, "Sir, you're working in this city?" The thought that the Grand Knight, a legendary warrior, would be toiling away in the mundane tasks of everyday life seemed utterly incongruous.Zikk chuckled, a hint of amusement in his eyes. "Of course, I need to feed myself, right?" He winked, a playful glint in his gaze. "See you around."With that, Zikk turned and strode away, disappearing into the labyrinthine all

    The whispers and hearsay suggesting that Ethan Slayer was the individual responsible for instigating a full-scale conflict between the formidable Beast Kingdom and the vast Empire were, in the opinion of Miron, nothing more than baseless conjecture. He was firmly convinced that these rumors were merely the result of devious political machinations being orchestrated by a select group of nobles within the Empire, who were cunningly manipulating the situation to their own advantage.Such tales of intrigue and deception were likely to be believed only by the most gullible of commoners and the lowest-ranking of nobles, who were easily swayed by sensationalist stories and exaggerated claims.Furthermore, there was another outlandish rumor circulating, which held that Ethan Slayer had single-handedly defeated an entire legion of the Beast Kingdom's most formidable warriors, and had compelled a daunting elite force of ten thousand beastmen to retreat in disgrace, with their tails tucked meek

However, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the checkpoint at the gate was both rigid and strict, a testament to the city's strong defenses.As he entered the city, he was immediately struck by the vibrant atmosphere that pervaded the streets. The residents of Ice Demon City went about their daily lives with genuine smiles on their faces, as though the war that was raging in the north was of little concern to them. Children played and laughed on the streets, while adults busied themselves with their work.Miron's eyes widened in astonishment as he realized that the roads within the city were all paved, a luxury that was rarely found in such remote territories. He shook his head in disbelief, wondering if his eyes were playing tricks on him."I must be seeing things," he muttered to himself, unable to comprehend the level of develop
