Arc#3 Chapter 60: Trial by Fire (2)

Reivan wasn't sure what time it was, but it was probably before midnight since it hadn't been that long after he'd eaten dinner.

"Phew."

Sitting cross-legged on the cold stone floor and soaked with his own sweat, Reivan struggled to stop himself from humping the space between the bars.

'Fuck! I'm so goddamn horny! I wanna have sex! Sex! Ahhhhhh!'

He now realized that the "heat" he felt earlier was not the trial that would help him unlock his ...

Arc#3 Chapter 59: Trial by Fire (1)

Reivan thought everything would go swimmingly but he was very wrong.

The first thing he saw when he woke up the following day was a dark, stone wall. His limbs were also weighed down by thick shackles that had glowing runes all over them. The shackles were heavy, but Reivan was no slouch when it came to strength so he could move just fine. In front of him, bars with similar runes engraved on them were placed as a barricade that prevented him from leaving wherever he was right n...

Arc#3 Chapter 58: Distant Storms

The Spirit Tower of Arkhan.

For the common folk, the Magitechnocratic Republic of Arkhan was a nation primarily "ruled" by the president, along with a few other officials who were chosen through elections. The Sage King — the only Transcendent tied to the republic — was a good-natured and enigmatic guardian that would sally forth to vanquish the republic's enemies should the need arise.

But the reality was quite different.

In truth, the government and t...

Arc#3 Chapter 57: Elsa's Business Ventures

From the young woman’s earlier words, Reivan had expected the private rooms to contain beds. However, that was not the case.

If he wanted to describe it as fast as possible, the private rooms were basically luxurious versions of the “karaoke rooms” he’d seen in anime.

The opulent adornments were a given, but the most noticeable part of the room was a large couch on the other side of the entrance. A low table was in front of it, adorned with an arrangement of appet...

Arc#3 Chapter 56: The Serpent's Haven

Reivan couldn’t help but offer a round of applause after Hector performed a short song for them. “Surprisingly, you’re good at this. I thought you won the talent show because you bribed the judges.”

Hector rolled his eyes, putting down the new flute he’d gotten as a gift from Reivan. “Can’t you just say something nice? You know, without the stupid commentary?”

“This is how I show my love.”

“Don’t show it. I don’t want such a thing. Not f...

Glimpse of Eternity - Table of Contents

This post documents every single Glimpse of Eternity chapter currently posted on Patreon — together with the link to the post, of course.

It will also mark down what tier you have to join to have access to it. If it is unmarked, then that pretty much means that you simply have to be a PAID member to have access — in other words, all tiers.

I also plan to slowly post all the chapters on Patreon just so I have another place to use as a backup for my GoE — just in case...

Arc#3 Chapter 53: The Mercer Manor

"Hey, wake up." Reivan poked Helen's cheek as she lay atop Zouros' body, cradled by its wings.

"Mmrhm..." Helen murmured incomprehensible things with a frown, pushing his hand away. Even after multiple prods, she still wouldn't wake up.

'She sleeps like a dead person, I swear to the Sun God...'

Reivan shrugged and then looked toward Zouros. "Nothing to it. Just let her down easy."

The winged serpent nodded and hissed before setting Helen down on a bed inside o...

Arc#3 Chapter 49: Emptiness

“Now then!” Reivan spoke with enthusiasm, trying to rid his mind of the wonderful view he’d been unexpectedly treated to. From his spacial ring, he took out three black marbles that appeared to be made of some black glass-like material. “You three — Greyviel, Elvar, and Desmor — will have to swallow these slave pellets. This is the minimum concession I expect from you gentlemen.”

"Slave pellets?" Greyviel looked bewildered, staring at the contents of the youth's h...

‘So that’s how it feels like to shoot someone.’

Strangely, it didn’t really feel like anything… until he looked at the spot he’d shot.

‘Okay, now I feel kind of bad… or not.’

Aside from just discovering that Elvar was a pedophile, Reivan didn’t think the man was a bad person.

That said, Reivan still needed a few pieces of information from him. In particular, Reivan needed to know who facilitated the deal between the Silver Cross an...

Elsamina and her party of lowlives stood before a set of ornate double doors, framed by intricately carved statues of naked women. There were also two large men with rippling muscles threatening to burst out of their clothes guarding either side.

Sensing the weight of the impending encounter, Greyviel pivoted to face them, his gaze piercing through each member of the group as he issued a final warning.

The moment Xanthus opened the door to the pub, Elsamina and the others saw what seemed like any ordinary dilapidated pub that would make you wonder how it stayed afloat.

The wooden tables inside looked as if they’d already started rotting, and there were empty bottles of booze strewn all over the floor. Perhaps due to insufficient profits, there were no actual chairs, and any patrons gracing the place with their presence had to sit on dirty overturned barrels.

These were not the...

"Good afternoon, everyone."

Reivan smiled as he stood in front of about fifty men. Although his Akhanian was a bit rough around the edges, it seemed to be enough to convey his thoughts.

""We greet the Boss!""

The gang members all bowed at a ninety-degree angle and greeted him at the top of their lungs. Their clothes were all of visibly better quality, and all of them looked much cleaner too. Putrid body odor was no longer left behind wherever they went, and one wouldn't even...

Hello, patrons.

Just wanted to inform you that the new tier will likely be put up tomorrow or the day after. The delay was because I accidentally erased an entire chapter. And all my backups for it, unfortunately, were deleted by my dumb self because I was sure it would be fine.

It was not fine.

Anyway, I had to rewrite an entire chapter (Arc#3 Chapter 44)....

Hello, dear patron.

Just a few announcements.

  • I rewrote Arc#1 Chapter 1.  Nothing changed. I just took out a bunch of unnecessary descriptions and fluff. From 5.4k words, it went down to 4k. I also polished it up a bit. You can read it if you want. Or don't.

Arc#3 Chapter 40: Unbreakable

"Ugh..." Reivan groaned while rubbing his reddened nose. The dull pain prevented him from feeling too happy about his victory against the three squires.

'What the hell was that, anyway...'

He didn't think he underestimated the three of them. But he sure didn't expect Alfered to have learned those types of moves when even Reivan hadn't been taught them yet. At most, he could do some basic elementalism, releasing the elements in their raw form; like shooting a pebble-sized ...

Arc#3 Chapter 39: Channeling Your Inner Raid Boss is Hard

Reivan didn't know what to do, and he also knew that asking Donovan again would get him scolded in front of all these people. Asking Helen wasn't a good idea either, since the hairless bastard could obviously hear him even from this distance.

'Did he ask me a question or did he tell me to do something...?'

Luckily, his very dependable friend came to his rescue.

"Hey, Van! You're up! Good luck!" Hector hopped over the heads of the other squires again and waltzed back...

While Reivan was going through just another normal day, the other members of his family — in particular, the adults — weren't idling around and doing nothing.

"Reporting to Commander Stella"

As she sat atop a tree branch, Stella Aizenwald grimaced in thought. Her silky black hair was tied in a tight bun behind her head.
