Wish upon the Stars chapter 854
Carmichael took a bit to get Argaunt settled in, and in the meantime, we were all given rooms to stay in. The rooms were BIG. Like, each individual one was an apartment sized chamber. Callie and I were given a huge two story condo looking space with an open concept kitchen. We could see the second floor balcony from the mostl...

I was pulled out of my work when the car stopped. Despite the interior dimension being mostly detached from the sensations of travel (thankfully), braking seemed to make an obvious impact on our trip. We emerged into a cavern of indeterminate size. The whole place was so massive I had trouble seeing the edges, although admitt...

The next day we headed to the capital. Veldran got in touch with the Ghost Bone Tower Boss and arranged for our passage. Across the Shoals, the call went out to all the C-rankers we could reach, as well as all the D-rank members of Silent Sorrow, all of us gathering for a conclave at the central Tower to prepare to make a bre...

“So, you can make wine that makes people stronger?” Chelsea asked Bethy with interest. “How come we haven’t heard about this before?” Due to her purification powers, my sister had decided to join in the winemaking, along with me, Daysia, Dayna, Bethy, and Archie.
Behty shook her head. “Because it’s not goo...

The next day I decided it was time. It had been a while since my last points drop, and I was going to need them for what came next. We’d spread the news of me killing that C-ranker (I was getting the credit for the kill this time, since we decided having more wish capability was the best use of the renown). I stockpiled the...

Wish upon the Stars chapter 849
I woke up feeling pretty good. I’d worked through a lot of the excess data, and I set a parallel to work on the form while I took a much needed break. I’d been overclocking myself non stop since we got to the dungeon, and with everyone safe and nearby, I finally felt comfortable taking a bit of a breather before we got in...

Wish upon the Stars chapter 848
I got seventy five years of service out of Argaunt, as well as several clauses and addenda promising his action in very specific circumstances outside of the succession war and his capacity as a direct employee of the WCP assuming I didn’t win. He’d been insistent on that second part, because the odds were pretty ...

Wish upon the Stars chapter 847
Veldran was able to find me the location of one of the C-rankers pretty quickly, mostly because they were already in Bonehook. After he gave us the name, I learned from Dayna that the C-ranker in question was a peak disciple of Verdyn named Argaunt, a master Archer who had perfected a technique that allowed him to charge up a...

The underside of the Ghost Bone Tower was surprisingly homey. I’d expected yet another huge chamber with a grand sweeping design aesthetic, but it was pretty cozy. The hallways were small but not cramped, painted in warm colors, and there was a thick cushy carpet along the length of the corridor.
Rath...

It was a relief to be back on land. Or…well, back on normal land? The ocean was gone, but the area where it had been was twisted and creepy, even without all the monsters trying to hunt us down like dogs. “Alright, so, you two have any idea where we are?” I asked, glancing at Dez and Carmichael.
Carmichael f...

The sea bed was…unsettling. The sand was black and crystalline, with strange purple flickers dancing across the surface of the grains when we looked closer. When we first emerged, the plants and coral around us had just seemed like normal sea bed stuff, but the longer we looked, the more upsetting it became. The coral twist...

Standing at the bottom of an empty sea bed as dark water poured from the sky was a bit surreal. I’d expected to be coated and submerged in moments, but the downpour didn’t seem to be touching the ground. There was a strange effect where the drops were hitting the air itself. Not like there was a platform or an invisible w...

Three to two was not great odds. Well, it was more like fifteen to fifteen, but we only had two C-rankers, which was all that mattered here. I mentally contacted Callie, asking her to play support for the others. Meanwhile, I flexed my wings, preparing to go all out. Callie, using her stealth and shadow powers, started contac...

The square was divided up into a grid pattern. I wasn’t able to see the specifics until I got closer, but one I did, I grimaced. A series of squares, each one with a different spirit in it. The squares each had a rule on it, written in the center in gold. Callie knelt down, grimacing at the nearest square. “Single use. On...

Carmichael filled the rest of us in on his situation once Abel came back. The C-ranker had gotten entangled with an Abyssal Lord before his disappearance, and had ended up dragged into the sea. They’d battled underwater for weeks, only for Carmichael to get pulled into the Void Shallow, the entrance of which was apparently ...
