Chapter 102 : A New collaboration
The mountain air was thin and cold. Jaxen's breath came in ragged bursts, visible in the freezing morning light. His muscles screamed. His bones ached. His prosthetic foot dug into the rocky ground as he adjusted his stance.Across from him, Peter stood motionless, his hands clasped behind his back. He hadn't even broken a sweat."Again," Peter said.Jaxen lunged forward, the AEONAXIS sword cutting through the air in a wide arc. Peter sidestepped, his movements fluid and effortless. Jaxen followed up with a thrust, then a diagonal slash, then a spinning strike.Peter blocked each one with minimal effort, his forearm deflecting the blade like it was a toy."You're telegraphing," Peter said. "Your shoulders give away your intent before you even move."Jaxen gritted his teeth and attacked again. Faster this time. More precise.Peter caught his blade between two fingers, stopping it cold."Better," Peter said. "But not good enough."Jaxen pulled back, breathing heavily. "I've been trainin
Chapter 101 : Armageddon.
Horizon City was drowning in mist. The kind of thick, unnatural fog that swallowed buildings whole and turned the world into a pale, suffocating void. The naked eye could only see so far before the distance vanished into the white mask of dawn.The constant hissing of Jaxen's electric kettle voiced over the apartment, its high-pitched scream cutting through the silence like a blade. The tune was now getting on Elara's nerves—Jaxen's sister, who had been awake for all of five minutes and was already regretting it."Are you gonna turn that thing off?" she called out, rubbing her eyes. "Your water's been boiling for minutes now. Don't these things have a thermometer to shut them off!?"No response.Elara frowned. The kettle kept screaming. The apartment felt empty.Is he not in his room?She walked down the hallway, each step causing the old floorboards to squeak beneath her feet. "Jaxen? You in there?"She placed
Chapter 100 : Season finale
Today marked the eighteenth year since the emergence of dungeon portals first began.The first dungeon portal opened at the west coast of Lyberia City in Pentos on the seventh day of the ninth month. When the gates first appeared, the phenomenon was an unusual anomaly that no one understood.Scientists spent weeks studying the radiation and frequency patterns being emitted from the gate portals before sending their first team inside. A total of nine prisoners and volunteers first walked in. None came out alive. None except one.Kael Michaels.Emerging from the portal, his body was bruised and bloodied. His eyes were wide with terror. His hands trembled uncontrollably."They're coming! They're coming! They're coming!"These were the words he muttered continuously after emerging from the portal.Scientists placed him under strict observation, studying his brain patterns and health. To their surprise, his body had
Chapter 99 : Homecoming
Two business days had passed before Bill and Jaxen were finally back in Horizon City from their business trip. The tour had taken them a total of eight days, with five of those dedicated to business meetings.Jaxen had just been officially recognized as an official S-rank hunter. For that reason, multiple paperwork and meetings were in place.On average, the major countries have less than twenty S-rank hunters each. For that reason, S-ranks were considered prestigious assets, and the number of S-ranks a country possessed reflected its strength.Because of that, S-ranks are usually diverted into the country's biggest guilds, especially in the capital cities of a specific country.Although Horizon City was one of the major cities in the country, it wasn't the capital city or state. And Liberty Guild was a very new guild without much influence.For these reasons, Bill found himself in many meetings and legal disputes with the count

Chapter 98: Girls' Day Out and Boys' Night In---Part One: The Unlikely DuoThe sun was warm over Horizon City, casting golden light across the bustling streets. Jaxen's sister stood outside Liberty Guild headquarters, her arms crossed, tapping her foot impatiently."You're late," she said as Sophia finally emerged from the building.Sophia raised an eyebrow. "I'm five minutes early.""Exactly. You're late."Sophia stared at her for a moment. Then she laughed. "You're just like your brother.""Please don't compare me to him. He's annoying.""He really is."The two women shared a grin. It was strange how quickly they had become friends. Jaxen's sister had been out of the hospital for weeks now, and Sophia had made it a point to check on her regularly. What started as obligation had turned into genuine friendship."So what's the plan?" Sophia asked. "You dragged me out here. You better
chapter 97 : the puppet master's lair
The Puppet Master's LairThe dungeon gate flickered with an eerie green light, its surface rippling like disturbed water. Sophia stood at the front of the raid team, her purple sword gleaming in the dim glow. Behind her, Jack tightened his grip on his axes, his expression focused. Peter lounged against a nearby rock, looking utterly bored."A B-rank dungeon," Sophia said, her voice steady. "Zombies. The scouts reported a controlling entity at the center. We take out the controller, the zombies fall."Peter yawned. "Sounds simple enough.""Nothing is ever simple," Jack muttered.Sophia ignored them. "Formation. Jack, you're on the left flank. Peter, you're support. I'll take point."Peter raised an eyebrow. "Support? I'm an A-rank mage. I should be leading.""You're also lazy," Sophia said flatly. "Support. That's final."Peter shrugged. "Fine. But when you need saving, don't come crying to me.""I won't
