Interlude: Not so Familiar

Within the vast estate, a young girl—no more th

Chapter 89: Exponential Growth

Morthak's lesson began swiftly and without preamble. He laid out his materials with meticulous care, arranging them on the table as if each placement held some arcane significance. At its center was a magic circle, its intricate lines and symbols a mix of the familiar and the alien. The "ink" used to draw it glistened with a ...

Chapter 88: Burdens of the Mighty

"A detestable, revolting creature—an affront to Mother Nature herself, driven by an insatiable hunger for chaos and destruction. Being compared to such a thing feels like an insult to my very existence... but I can see why some might think it." Morthak said, his voice low and grim, a shadow darkening his brow.

"I'm so...

Chapter 87: Dancing under light

It’s been two days since Ken’s evolution. The once-sour nurse with a sharp tongue has transformed into... some kind of bizarre chrysalis? I’m no stranger to these metamorphoses; I’ve seen my fair share of cocoons since arriving in this twisted world. But Ken’s? It’s something else entirely. His chrysalis resembles...

Chapter 86: The Price of Tomorrow

When I woke the next day, the first thing I felt was warmth—a shifting, living weight pressing down on me. A dense blanket of [Nurses]—worker bees tasked with my care—crawled over my body like tiny healers from some strange dream. Their legs moved purposefully, their wings humming a soft, rhythmic lulla...

Chapter 85: All of Us

"Wrong. Do it again." Morthak intoned with icy precision, his voice devoid of warmth.

"But—"

"Again." The single word cut through my protest like a blade, leaving no room for argument.

Swallowing my frustration, I clenched my teeth and began anew. With trembling fingers, I traced the circle in the air, my ...

Chapter 1: New Beginning

When I woke up all I saw was a big light, looking down I couldn't see my body or feel it. All I saw was a big white room that didn't seem to end at all.

As I tried to process what was happening around me. Suddenly in front of me a large vintage tv appears out of nowhere in front of me, and then with a sizzling sound a g...

Chapter 84: Struggle for Air

"Magic is more than energy; it’s a way to make our desires come true—a means to distort the fabric of reality and bend it to our will," Morthak said, conjuring a cube of pure magical energy that floated in the air.

"This... feels wrong, you know? There are so many limitations, so many rules. You can’t put rules on...

Chapter 83: Someone New

As soon as I woke up the next day, I found myself in the same cave as before, making the idea that this could just be a bad dream disappear completely. The only difference was that now part of the hive had woken up and was crawling around, mapping every part of the cave. When I opened my eyes, a [Worker] ...

Chapter 82: Masters of Magic

"A necromancer... Like, the guy who brings the dead back to life?"

"No, that’s just a myth," Morthak said, his voice carrying a gruff edge. "You can’t bring the dead back without terrible consequences. Nature follows a fixed course. Trying to swim against that current? Stupid. Foolish, even."

He ...

Chapter 81: Wake Up

“Cough—Cough! W-Where am I?!”

My voice broke the suffocating silence as I forced my eyes open, my chest heaving as though I’d been underwater too long. Panic gripped me, and I scrambled to sit up, every movement stiff and labored. I was back in that place—the one I swore I’d never s...

Interlude: Deadly Storm

The sky is stained with the deep crimson of blood, the kind that courses through us all. I can feel their pain, the rage that burns like a flame—unyielding, unquenchable. They want us dead. They want to see us suffer, to watch the world crumble and burn while we’re forced to witness it up close. Why? Because ...

Chapter 80: Raining Blood

Our journey continued for some time, with occasional stops to rest or sleep. Along the way, the boys found various plants and curiosities they deemed fascinating. One of the more unusual discoveries was a mushroom shaped like a tiny jar, filled with a strange powder. If someone ventured too close, the mushroom wo...

Chapter 79: Love Me, Fear Me, Hate Me

When I woke up, I was completely wrapped in a blanket of bees. They were all arranged over my body, forming a kind of warm cocoon around me. As I shifted and got up from my "bed," I felt the whole hive stirring awake along with me—some of the bees let out little yawns, while others headed to the en...

Chapter 78: Molten Past

Completely dumbfounded by the small ball of light hovering before me, I lost myself for a moment, finally snapping back to reality.

"Is this my soul? Or at least a part of it?"

This ball of light was so much more than it appeared. I could feel an otherworldly connection to it, as if I were gazing into...

Chapter 77: Pushing Forward

I looked on, a bit puzzled, as Yan prepared to go speak with the kobolds. He didn't want me to go myself, but he also wasn’t willing to show up as “just a harmless little bee.” Instead, he’d come up with a plan. Yan mobilized a large number of troops to gather a long cloth cape and several wax masks craft...

Interlude: Tea time

In a small village nestled in the plains within the Forest of the Fallen, lived a struggling group of kobolds who fought daily for survival. Their lives were a constant battle against waves of beasts, hunger, disease, and the relentless scarcity of resources.

When they first arrived, no one expected them to...

Chapter 76: Close Your Eyes

Once inside the royal garden, I made my way to a secluded spot surrounded by a vibrant array of flowers and ornamental plants. Immersed in the garden’s beauty, I settled on the ground within a small clearing and began to analyze my skill list.

'Okay... Let’s start with ...
