Chapter 122: B2: C22: Monumental Success
The night was filled with stars, moons, and blocks of clouds drizzling snow across a battered battlefield that extended for many miles.
Zarian was still standing on the large boulder that Naomi had chucked like it was a mere ball. He was soaking in the monumental success of his party, his heart hammering hard as his Fractured Mind ran through many thoughts.
What a hell of a week. My wife’s casting down enhanced versions of her tears. The strongest gnoll in the world acts like a puppy in my village. And we just finished beating a damn elf prince from another continent.
I didn’t let the darkness beat me this time. I kept it under control. I didn’t let it break away.
The others actually came in to help me. For the first time in a long time, I really needed help, and they were there for me. They didn’t let me down. They saved me.
Is this what the Funnest Granpapa and the rest of my family want to see? Are they watching? What do they think?
Ariana, little sister, look how far these mortals have come. Look how much they’ve grown since their journey began in the Star System. You think of them as bugs. But they will show you how wrong you are.
Zarian looked up at Bianca. She was standing on a panel of light as the winter breeze made her colorful elven dress flutter around her long and graceful legs.
She looked sullen but beautiful, glamorous but deadly, while hefting a javelin of supercharged light over a conquered enemy. She could execute the elf at a moment’s notice.
