《Night Ranger》Chapter 600. Bone Breaking Screech
Advertisement
Weeping Sky wasn't only for slaying Dragons; it was also a true Legendary Weapon.
Its sharpness was ranked among the best among spear-type weapons.
Marvin didn't use Sodom's Blades because he hadn't fully grasped their power yet.
The Snake Witch was a very formidable enemy. If he didn't take the advantage with this sneak attack, it would be very easy for him to fall into the predicament of fighting a powerful caster.
This would be detrimental to Marvin.
Weeping Sky was as sharp as Marvin had imagined and directly pierced through the viper's vitals.
As the blow landed, the entire rock pile shook.
Marvin had used too much strength, and the spear pierced through the rocks.
Even though the viper was frantically struggling, she still couldn't escape.
But the Snake Witch reacted very quickly, rolling up her tongue and then striking at Marvin's waist.
The tongue was extremely quick, and in an ordinary person's eyes, it was as fast as lightning.
But Marvin could even clearly see the fork in the tongue.
The tips were shaking frantically, which showed that the Snake Witch was suffering greatly from the attack.
After landing the hit, Marvin didn't try to strike another blow, but actually let go of Weeping Sky!
He jumped away, dodging the Snake Witch's counterattack.
"Sssss!"
An ear-piercing hiss reverberated in the small ravine, just as the sunlight happened to peek through. The poplar tree stood silently over their sudden fight.
"Woosh!"
Which a quick flash, a pair of curved daggers suddenly appeared in Marvin's hands.
The first attack had already seriously injured the Witch. It was time to end her life with Sodom's Blades.
Even if the Emperor's Spirit didn't release all of the daggers' power for Marvin, the daggers were still the powerful Artifact used by Sodom to rule over the Underdark.

Just attacking with the flat sides of the blades would be a lot more powerful than the Azure Leafs had been. Marvin wasn't quite used to the weight of Sodom's Blades as he prepared to attack.
But then, the viper's body suddenly shrank back.
The snake coiled itself into a ball, wrapping around Weeping Sky and slowly pulling herself out.
Marvin frowned. He had lost some tempo after dodging the Snake Witch's feint.
The snake's scarlet body shuddered and turned brown, the skin looking much older.
'This is… Molting?'
Marvin looked at that scene in surprise.
'The Snake Witch had that skill?'
In mere moments, the viper finished molting, and at the part pierced by Weeping Sky, the viper's body split in two, letting her escape!
The Snake Witch had been reborn anew!
She had turned from a scarlet viper into a two-headed monster.
One of the heads had a faintly festering Human face on it!
"You have the aura of the Anzeds on you!"
"Ah! Did that group of sluts send you to kill me?"
As the Snake Witch roared, the other head spat out a green mist.
The green poison flooded the entire ravine.
Marvin's expression changed.
Although his resistances were very high, the Snake Witch was a master of poison. Her poison would definitely be frightening.
He immediately took out the Grayhawk Staff and answered while casting, "Although I have a bit of a relationship with the Anzeds, I'm sorry to tell you that my arrival has nothing to do with them."
"I need some of your things, but if I had asked you directly, you certainly would have definitely rejected me."
"Thus, I looked for a way around it before deciding to kill you."
As Marvin said that, the Grayhawk Staff burst with an even brighter radiance.

[Major Magic Dispel]!
The Grayhawk Staff was at the level of a peak Legendary Weapon, it could turn an ordinary person into a Greater Druid.
Hit with the powerful dispelling effect, the poisonous mist dispersed completely, not leaving any traces behind.
"A Great Druid?"
"Since when have the Migratory Bird Council's people been so unreasonable?"
The Snake Witch felt shocked when she saw her poison mist slowly thinning.
She originally thought that the attacker was just a reckless Assassin, but now he was using a Great Druid Nature spell so easily.
As far as she knew, only those in Feinan's Migratory Bird Council could perform such a feat.
She had suffered a serious injury, so she was trying to stall for time.
Of course, she had already gleaned a lot of information about that youth.
She had seen through his disguise in a glance. Marvin possessed the Disguise ability from his Shapeshift Sorcerer's bloodline, which would work fine against most people. But in front of such a powerhouse, it was just a joke.
...
The Snake Witch's act was pretty good. Unfortunately, Marvin had no intention of saying anything superfluous from the start.
Since the Dream God's Divine Servant failed to assassinate him, Marvin had been provoked like never before, and he also became more aware that his strength was still insufficient.
From the Snake Witch's point of view, she was very unlucky, having been eyed by Marvin for an unjust reason.
But this didn't mean that he could let her could keep on living!
Since Marvin made the decision to attack, besides killing her, there wasn't another path.
The Snake Witch was a person who knew how to hold grudges, and Marvin would not be able to sleep well if such a woman had a grudge with him.
Thus Marvin remained silent in spite of the Snake Witch's question. He put away the Grayhawk Staff and suddenly dashed at her.
35 points, Post-Godly Dexterity!
Marvin seemed like a monster to the Snake Witch's eyes. She didn't have time to blink before Sodom's Blades fell on her body.
She screeched loudly.
When he heard it, Marvin felt a strange vibration shaking through him.
His bones let out cracking sounds!
Followed by a burst of pain!
This sudden pain made Marvin unable to keep a steady hold on his daggers.
But the Snake Witch didn't seem much better after letting out that sound.
Her eyes were full of resentment, and the scarlet body went somewhat slack. This [Bone Breaking Screech] used a huge amount of her Magic Power.
This was a type of Legendary Witchcraft that would grievously injure both sides, shattering the bones of all creatures within five meters!
Marvin's bones were fracturing, and so were the Witch's.
But for the Snake Witch, this was the only spell that could stop Marvin.
The next second, the Snake Witch transformed once again, losing her scaly scarlet snake skin. A shivering, naked woman walked out of the red mist.

Leftover Apocalypse
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] This is a story about the newly-adult Calliope Smith having a terrible day that ends in her getting mysteriously teleported from Phoenix, Arizona to a fantasy world where her life is in constant danger. She considers this an upgrade. Someone evil is looking for her, and she doesn't know why. Someone who seems to know a lot about her has promised they'll help her, but she doesn't know who they are. All that matters to Callie is that magic is real and one way or another she's going to learn it. The end of the world is coming up, sure, but Callie won't need to worry about that. In fact, by the time she even finds out about it one of the doomsday devices will already be destroyed, and the authorities will be well on the way to dealing with the other one. It's fine. Everything will be smooth sailing. Almost certainly. Probably. Chapters are usually about 2500-3500 words, and the goal is to post 2-3 per week but I sometimes get busy or have some writers block. It's your standard portal fantasy / Isekai premise, but unlike some the main character's time on Earth and how she got pulled into another world will (eventually) be explored. Some slight GameLit-feeling stuff later, no menus or level-ups but there's something suspiciously like a skill tree when the magic system gets going. No number crunching, and while the main character will get to do some silly stuff she won't be a god like in some fics (and will in fact spend a lot of time being badly outclassed by her enemies). Some reader interaction, ranging from adding to the worldbuilding to occasionally making big important decisions about skill progression. Please note that the main character is flawed and impulsive, and will make some stupid decisions. That's part of the story, but I get that it's not for everyone. Trigger Warnings: Foster care system references, crappy parenting. Some mental health adjacent stuff, specifically the main character has some issues where she experiences varying levels of empathy and emotional vulnerability depending on the day (it's complicated and not meant to portray any real-world conditions). Occasional violence including mention of death and grievous bodily harm, but no detailed descriptions of gore.

Hinterland
Simon sincerely believed he was saving Morgan's life when he pushed her off the second-story roof of her family farmhouse. To be fair, his mother was burning it to the ground at the time.

Because the instant he pushed her over Simon also whisked Morgan into the realm of Hinterland: a shadowy world that is a perfect replica of their home town of Coching.

And by god, you run from scissors. Morgan is now trapped in this hostile realm, unable to find a way home.

Something ravenous. It's time for Morgan to decide whether to ditch her new allies and find her own way out of the belly of the beast, or stay and help her fellow outcasts weather the violent feud that brews on the horizon.
