Chapter 222: The Bone General

The ancient sarcophagus, carved with symbols that looked like they were drawn by a mad god with a ruler and a grudge, began to tremble as if the tomb itself was shivering in fear, and then the lid slid open without any sound, releasing a chill that made Elias’s skin tighten like a violin string pulled too far. From within the darkness, the skeleton rose, its bones faintly glowing with a sickly bluish green light as Dark and Poison mana gathered around its pores, seeping out like a poisonous mist that had finally been given permission to breathe.

The chamber itself answered the awakening with a violent shake, and the whole tomb trembled as though a great beast had been kicked awake beneath the earth. Dust cascaded down from the ceiling in thick, choking waves, and the stone walls, though magnificently crafted and ancient, groaned under the stress of the shaking. Elias, who had seen enough ruins to know that most of them were held together by pride rather

  • C223 — Necrotic Alchemy

    C223 — Necrotic Alchemy An idea flashed through Elias’s mind like a sudden spark in a dark room, and he could not deny that it was a little insane, but the kind of insanity that came from staring too long at a problem and realizing the answer was staring right back at you, daring you to be brave enough to touch it. He stared at the skeleton’s eyes, and the more he looked, the more it felt like he was looking at a living person rather than a pile of bone, because the bluish green light in those sockets was not empty at all, but filled with something that resembled awareness, a trace of the being it had once been, as if a sliver of its former soul had refused to die even after death had taken everything else. This skeleton had not always been a corpse, and it was not always just an undead puppet made from decay and hatred. It had once been a living man with desires, ambitions, and the kind of pride that drove him to become a legendary general under the First Human Emperor, a man who h

  • Chapter 221: Silver Sarcophagus

    Chapter 221: Silver Sarcophagus Elias stared at the crack running through the stone brick walls, and the realization settled into him with the quiet certainty of a trap finally snapping shut, as the Earth mana had parted like a living seam to reveal an entirely different room existing in an entirely different space. From the side, the crack looked like nothing more than a shallow line on a flat surface, a two dimensional mark that seemed to lack depth, and that illusion alone sparked a sudden understanding in Elias’s mind about the tomb’s hidden design. The treasure room was not in the visible chamber at all, but rather tucked away inside a pocket dimension, a hidden fold in reality that only the mana itself could open and only a clever user could cross. Elias did not have deep knowledge about pocket dimensions, but he had heard the concept thrown around in anime and fantasy media during his previous life, and the idea that reality could be folded like a map was both terrifying and

The ground shuddered under the force, and Elias felt it—the crystallized Earth mana that wove through the tomb’s foundation flickered, destabilizing for a heartbeat.Now.His thoughts raced through the shared link. Nexus-1, execute the scan.For an instant, the entire chamber’s defenses faltered—an imperceptible flicker to ordinary eyes, but to Elias, whose mana sensitivity bordered on divine madness, it was as though the veil of reality had lifted. He saw through the shimmering curtain, glimpsing the intricate architecture hidden within the tomb’s walls.That sliver of vulnerability was all Nexus-1 needed.> [Acknowledged. Initiating deep analysis of mana lattice structure.][Progress: 63%… 77%… 90%… 99%.]Data surged through his mind like a tidal wave o

    Chapter 219: When Mithril Sang Beneath the Blood MoonFive different groups of adventurers were locked in simultaneous chaos, each one grappling with its own undead Jaguar — five monsters resurrected from the ruins of a forgotten age. The ground itself seemed to hold its breath beneath the fury of their battle.Every group was well-seasoned, bearing crests and colors that commanded respect across the Falcon Region. The Knights hailed from the Order of the Heavenly Blades, warriors whose art of combat had been refined over generations until it bordered on religion. Their strikes carried precision like prayer, their movements guided by discipline etched into muscle and soul.The second group, adventurers from the HammerStone Company, were wrapped in armor that gleamed even through the haze of undead miasma. They bore the mark of the Hephaestus Conglomerate — a powerhouse standing shoulder to shoulder with the Holloway business empire. Every weapon they wield

  • Chapter 218: The Apex of Shadows – Jaguar of the Sixth Star

    Chapter 218: The Apex of Shadows – Jaguar of the Sixth StarOut from the suffocating dark, a beast emerged—a jaguar vast and terrible, its obsidian fur rippling like liquid night under torchlight. Its eyes, bright as twin moons soaked in blood, held not the dull haze of the undead, but a cold, calculating awareness. This was no mindless monster. This was a predator that thought.The chamber fell silent, the air heavy with dread. Every footstep of the creature echoed like war drums. The adventurers stiffened, blades shaking in their hands. The veterans among them recognized the danger before any appraisal spell could confirm it.This was an apex predator of the sixth star, a heartbeat away from the seventh realm, where magic itself bent to instinct.The four strongest parties were already locked in their own desperate dances, battling corrupted jaguars that clawed and shrieked with necrotic hunger. None could afford distraction.Sir Jon turned his head for a split second—enough for dis
