Chapter 348: Envy made manifest. [First Draft]

I would recommend playing this in the background and to leave it on loop https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avcCl16MxnM

“Krraaaaak!”

“And you’re saying you can’t heal?! Stop it, take this potion already and ge—”

Side Story 40: Trust and Faith. [First Draft]

[Hestia’s Retainer].

That was the name of the special blessing Hestia could give to those close to her, sharing with them increased experience and skill proficiency gained ingrained in her [Bearer of Kargryxmor’s Blood] and [The Light]. Specified in its description, this blessing originated from [The Light], Goddess Aurena’s gift to Hestia to help her in her Divine Quest.

Although not a Goddess or divine being, [Hestia’s Retainer] had “mutated” with its master, protect...

Chapter 347: Abyss of Despair. [First Draft]

“The laughing kid stomping loudly upstairs ♫

The damn lovebirds flirting on the streets ♫

Those rich asses living in their golden bubbles♫

I just wish they would all just disappear ♫”

Fire!

“Dammit!”

Collateral damage was unavoidable with this damn girl in the city, and I had to create distance between her and Amelia! Using all my available parallel minds and my own mind, eleven white magic circles appeared behind me, causing the de...

Chapter 346: Wrathful Encounters. [Second Draft]

Hestia profile coming up soon. Also, since it's been a while https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avcCl16MxnM

Edit: Profile update of Hestia added and also a new ending.

Chapter 345: Underwater Cavern Raid. [First Draft]

"““Guhhaaaaa!”””

Searing crimson flames scorched humans, stone, and steel all the same, melting or burning them in front of me. Their agony-filled cries startled the people around me at the sudden attack, giving enough time for Neill to transform back and for our knights to block off any escapes they could identify.

I swept my dragon breath around the large underwater cavern with crimson flames, before turning it into white flames. At this point, the mercs and scoundrels...

Chapter 344: An Unraveling Mystery into Burning Disgust. [SecondDraft]

Edit: Went too edgy with Hestia. She should hate literal scum, but the girl isn't a ruthless killer.

Side Story 39: The Warbringer’s Stroll. [Second Draft]

Edit: Pretty big update to the ending of this chapter. Kinda forgot to add it. Please, read!

____________________________

The day had ended for both Hestia and Fargryneill as they slumbered through the affairs of the night. An invasion might be ravaging the outskirts of the Yeos, and the rulers of the other countries of the Divide might be panicking during this night. Still, peace was audible for everybody to hear in Elyonda. After all, it was quiet, and this was ...

Announcement: I'm getting Published!

Hello everybody!

I just wanted to announce to you guys that have signed a contract with Aethon books, meaning ADIRT will actually be published by them in book form! They will be able to take over the annoying parts about self-publishing that I didn't want to do myself, for example, self-advertisement.

However, as some of you guys might have already read on the discord, my contract with them also means I will be joining Kindle Unlimited. While I haven't mentioned it anywhere here i...

Side Story 38: A Kirin’s Uncertainty. [Second Draft]

Edits: Edits added from chapter 342 changes, and also expanding on Fargryneill's future uncertainties.

__________________________

“Awwwwwwwww, why can’t we just stay at theirs? Have you seen their beds? Fluffy, like clouds! Waaaah, I just want to find a plot of soil and just go to sleep there, not trek back to the port to sleep with all the fish!”

“Shush, you. I flew us over here, what do you mean by ‘trek,’ huh?” Fargryneill complained to Rita...

Chapter 342: Bardic Inspidragon. [Third Draft]

Song for today: Persona 1 "School Days" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGuJxVU0sSY

Edit: Added Hestia's own insecurities about her own appearance, especially her dragon form. Helps both Neill and Hestia bond on this fact.

Chapter 341: Rapping Dragons. [First Draft]

Ahem! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbGs_qK2PQA

______________________

“W-What?! You can’t be serious!”

“Of course, try them on, Sis!” Despite her reluctance, I pushed some colorful and frilly stage outfits into Neill’s face, causing her to be flustered.

On the other hand, Rita was naturally curious about them, picking them up to use her [Investigate]. “Oooh, Neill, thes...

Chapter 340: The Three-Way Plan. [Second Draft]

Edit: Small changes to what I have added in Chapter 329.

_______________

“Make way! This is the carriage and entourage of the Prince of Joyulia! Greatest country of the Divide!”

“Our ruler is the Prince of Weimasha! The Goddess light has granted us her mercy, and we are required back home! Any who stands in our way will be run over!”

“Briamland requires their prince! We are the farthest away, so we must begin going! We must depart now!”

Chapter 339: Grim escalation. [First Draft]

“We have been able to incorporate Shaturein’s culture with Griffonpeak’s, allowing easy travel between the two cities, although we have placed multiple sentries to assure peace between us,” Jenghil reported on the latest changes of Griffonpeak’s undercity, Shaturein. “There have been… troubles between the people, though. The Heartful Dance and the Blackreach Guild have been able to incorporate our people into the ‘day’ life, but that was because we already had a footing. Peo...

Chapter 338: Rich one second, Poor the next. [First Draft]

<[Battle Frenzy (Minor)] inflicted on [Young Sunfang Dragon, Hestia Atsuko Kargryxmor]>

Deep breaths, deep breaths. Calm down my heart as best as possible. Need to get better at this. Better control if I want to prevent becoming alone one day.

My triple-colored flames were swirling around me like a slow twister. I had my eyes closed, but I could feel their warmth swirling around me. But, at the same time, I felt something pulsating ...

Chapter 337: Pen, Sword, and Heart. [Release Version]

“Ghuhahahahahahaha! My thanks, dragonewt girl! I’m not a fan of Aurena’s blind little pups, but white spells are far more useful than any other healing method. A salve wouldn’t heal those wounds!”

“Oof!”

The first thing Ghorush did after I healed the two baseball-sized holes in his arms was to smack me right in the back, nearly knocking me over due to size and weight difference alone. Dragon or not, I wasn’t as heavy as my original form right now. Otherwise, wooden...

Chapter 336: Fargryneill vs. Ghorush. [Release Version]

“And a mad rush! Ghorush dashes forth on four legs, holding his massive axe in his maw! The lion strikes forth, aiming for the horned lizard!” the announcer described the battle as he always did — as descriptive and hype-inducing as possible. “But the black-purple-haired girl isn’t flinching! She’s standing her ground to— OH! IMPACT”

Protected by her scales in a gauntlet form, Neill readied herself into a stance before a right hook at Ghorush as he used his momentum to l...

Chapter 335: A Sword Savant’s Rage. [Release Version]

Edit: More scoldings.

“A-Are you sure?! Larent, are you sure he’s dead?!”

“… A fisher found him… his remains. Mangled and nearly unidentifiable. Nearly fully feasted upon by merfiends, weren’t it for these brave saurians.”

“… My condolences.”

“May his soul find peace with Goddess Ilsaphone,” Tasianna prayed for his soul’s safety.

The first match between Chahayat and me was an audience...

Chapter 334: Unwanted Seafarers. [Release Version]

“Aaaaand, healed up!” I gave Chahayat a thumbs up as he was slowly checking his body for wounds. His face was filled with carapace and scales, making it a bit hard to figure out his expression but I could tell he was surprised… or maybe he really was a man ...

Chapter 333: Second Round set Aflamed. [Release Version]

In case you guys haven't read my changes to Hestia's opponent, I have made some changes to Chahayat to make him actually a character, and not just a no-face opponent with a bit of information behind him. The original draft of this fight had too little tension to make it feel fun to read. I'm still considering some changes later on, but for now, this is it.

Let me know how you liked it, please.

Chapter 332: A Champion’s Worth. [Release Version]

Edit: Territories are now displayed through the System to further give them importance. I also corrected this in previous chapters.

Edit 2: Last draft made Chahayat too boring of a character with little to no motivations or backstory. The aloof but serious merfolk is already done by Tehmrayn, and he does it better since he got more screen time and we are able to learn of his personality. This draft is there to spruce Chahayat up for the upcoming fight.
