The flea market was even more massive than Siles had imagined. Rather than resembling the vaulted arcades of the October Market in Lamifa City, this place felt more like a low-slung bazaar patched together from one cloth stall to the next. The hawking and shouting of the peddlers gave the entire area a bustling, noisy, and thoroughly lively atmosphere. Siles was reminded of certain marketplace scenes back on Earth, which often possessed an incredibly rich, exotic charm. However, the moment he…-

"Dear Mother, hope this letter finds you well. "...As I write this letter, there are still four days until the arrival of September. The weather is turning cold, I hope you take care of your health. "...Following what you said in your last letter, I have already purchased winter clothing and quilts. My savings are still more than enough, you don't need to attach a hundred-coin note every time you send a letter; I think you can buy more things you like for yourself. "...My work at Lamifa University…

Ji Mingrui sent a message. - How is it. Chi Qing replied: What do you mean how is it. - Asking you how the apartment is.

Siles’s matter stirred a wave of righteous indignation among his companions. Angela was especially outspoken, saying, “I’ll go look into it and see whether this elder has any hidden secrets.” Siles was grateful for their support, but still asked them not to act rashly. After all, the other party was a powerful, senior Revelator, so they would need to understand his background before trying to deal with him. That naturally earned everyone’s agreement. The topic then shifted to something…

Siles conversed with Dominic for a considerably long period of time regarding his experiences in the Ashless Lands, the truth behind the scenes of the Greyson incident, and those followers of the Old Gods in the Ashless Lands. Dominic listened in silence, coming to sudden realizations every now and then, until everything finally dissolved into a sigh. He said, "It seems this is the truth of the matter. I never expected that a single trip to the Ashless Lands would actually allow you to resolve the…

This rumored map, obtained from a powerful explorer, was made of a very old, dark yellow parchment. When he ran his fingertip over it, he could feel a subtle leathery texture. Simple charcoal marks were used to sketch out routes and landmarks on it, giving the whole thing a rough, rustic appearance, far less exquisite and detailed than the Barnett version. Siles noticed that Hales was marked in the upper-left corner of the map. Therefore, the area depicted by this map was probably somewhere in the…

“My dear Mother, I hope this letter finds you well. “…As I write this, I have returned to Lamifa City. The Ashless Lands is a magical place filled with secrets. I made some new friends and solved a bit of trouble together with them. “… “…That is roughly what happened. Please rest assured, however; I did not encounter any severe or terrible crisis, only a few mad individuals. Perhaps that is simply how this world is, and we can only try our best to maintain our own reason and…

January 1. The first day of the New Year. It was a holiday in the Duchy of Konst. Since Siles had happened to sleep rather late, it was already nearly nine o'clock by the time he woke up. In the early hours of the morning, after saying "Happy New Year" to Chendo and exchanging hugs and kisses, he returned to 6 Hayward Street. Chendo had originally wanted him to stay the night at 32 Lowell Street, as it was simply too late, to spare Siles the trouble of traveling back. But Siles still wanted to go…

"Good morning, Siles," Grenfield said. "Just one more week until the New Year." "Good morning, Teacher," Siles replied. "We can meet up that morning." He sat down in front of Grenfield. The fireplace in the room blazed, giving off an incredibly warm feeling. Freed from the bitter, freezing rain outside, Siles immediately felt much more comfortable. He couldn't help but think that he really should put the leaf specimen matter on the agenda. Grenfield asked, "How is the project on sealed…

The red mud on the isolated island felt moist and dense. Like thick blood, or soft cake. And he was wearing leather shoes. The hard leather soles stamped deep footprints one after another into the red mud. His gaze occasionally drifted to the giant doll on the other side of the sea. It blocked out the sky, yet was entangled by countless threads. Even more occasionally, he would unintentionally look up and catch a glimpse of the stars that Leon had described as rotting eyeballs. He saw the pitch-black…
