A Novel Approach chapter 135
Five chapters left on this one folks, should be finishing off at 140
Wish upon the Stars chapter 989
Aiden escorted me back to the suite of rooms my people were staying in. The walk was…informative. The WCP reminded me of nothing so much as a walled city. It wasn’t a building, for all the it was in one piece. Huge towering chambers, spatial manipulation, artificial sunlight, parks, there were amenities inside the ...
Wish upon the Stars chapter 988
Someone who wasn’t me might wonder why I was so excited. I’d met my ancestor, he’d said almost nothing to me, then he’d kicked me out. Which…honestly had been what I’d expected. He was the Wishmaster. As a god centered around deals and contracts, once I was no longer relevant to him it wasn’t surprising h...
Wish upon the Stars chapter 987
We didn’t stop inside the Palace. I expected to be taken to a throne room, or maybe some kind of study. Instead, Aiden brought me deep, deep into the heart of the structure, and then we left it behind to enter a deeper area.After an hour or two of walking (ignoring everyone we passed), we came to a pair of huge dark ...
Wish upon the Stars chapter 986
We made our way through the bleak rocky landscape pretty easily. Not that I expected trouble with Aiden around. I was sure my grandparents were tougher, given my grandpa was a demigod, but something about having the ACTUAL Wishmaster on hand in case of trouble was, admittedly, soothing.When we reached the edge of the r...
Wish upon the Stars chapter 985
Reaching out to the gate was an odd experience. It was a bit like calling for my soul weapon, but also not. For one, I could FEEL the doors, and they were much more powerful than my staff was. Something in me though, my bloodline, or maybe my position, seemed to resonate with the massive metal slabs though. I focused h...
Wish upon the Stars chapter 984
Finally, the last day or two passed, and it was time to go. I had to admit, I was nervous. Coming here had been amazing. Feeling the warmth of family, spending my days relaxing, I had learned and grown so much in ways that weren’t possible to track on my stat sheet. But now…now it was time to go back to the real wo...
Wish upon the Stars chapter 983
Dinner was a busy affair. Everyone from the family who lived nearby had shown up to see us off. My Uncle Anders had brought his daughters Sonya and Lara, who were losing their minds over the fact that Bethy was at the dinner. They were younger than I had been at the beginning of my journey, only fifteen or sixteen, and...
Wish upon the Stars chapter 982
Getting back to my mom’s estate didn’t take much work to arrange. We could have taken a shuttle, but after some deliberation we decided to fly back. The angels, Callie, Bethy and I all had wings, but my sister didn’t, so Sera and Holly took one arm each and carried her. Bethy seemed mildly put out by that fact, a...
Wish upon the Stars chapter 981
After the unfortunate revelation that some kind of…something was going to try to kill me at my coronation (probably), I made Isaac an offer. With over seventeen hundred scrolls to burn, finding enough people to use them all with any expedience would be tough on my own. Luckily, I was in the presence of the tower mast...
Wish upon the Stars chapter 980
Callie was in a great mood when we finally met up with the others. I was really happy for her too, of course, but also somewhat terrified of where they’d BEEN. “Hey guys,” I greeted my sister, Bethy, and the angels. “Where did you wander off to?”Bethy beamed. “I was trying to become an angel!” At our conf...
A Novel Approach chapter 131
nsfw mind the tags.
Wish upon the Stars chapter 979
We ran into a slight problem with Callie using all my scrolls…she couldn’t pay for them. If she’d just been reshuffling her points it would have been fine, point for point, but unfortunately, wishing for MORE stats meant cost, and she just didn’t have enough to pay for it. We’d tried paying with stored attack...
Wish upon the Stars chapter 978
Dinner with Ariel was really nice. She was an extremely warm and welcoming person, and Holly and Serah both adored her. But despite that, throughout the entire meal, I couldn’t help but notice Callie was…distant. I’d expected after contributing her flicker to the flames of eternity she’d be excited or energized...
Wish upon the Stars chapter 977
The Seraphim Tower was…big. Not intimidating, or imposing, exactly, just big. If anything the building was strangely comforting in its size. Like a big reliable bodyguard that loomed over the nearby area. It sat in the middle of a valley, surrounded by fluffy golden clouds, and the top of the tower exploded out above...
Wish upon the Stars chapter 976
Time. The more of it that I endured, the faster it seemed to flow. A day. A month. Six. The trip to Seraph (the capital planet of the Holy Dominion) only took a month in the Acheron. The other five went by in a blur of revelry, meetings, and general contentment. Meeting relatives, bonding with my sister, spending time ...
Wish upon the Stars chapter 975
It was time to leave. Two days since the resurrection, one hundred and eight scrolls on hand, all my locals paid up and ready to head off…and I was going my own way. “You need to be careful with that dragon,” I told Benny sternly. “I know Sebastian is going to be helping you learn to work with it, but it’s st...
