《Night Ranger》Chapter 692. Cloak
Advertisement
This Divine Spell's description was very vague. Marvin had never heard of any Divine Spell called Unfathomable Ability.
It seemed that this Divine Spell had no limitations on its potential effects.
But Marvin knew that it was impossible for a pie to drop from the sky.
Furthermore, Marvin had some guesses about what it might require for material components.
This Divine Spell would certainly require some precious materials to be used, at the very least.
In any case, it shouldn't be useful in the short term.
'So, the 4th Fate Tablet probably won't give me any benefits besides making me an extremely knowledgeable and cunning linguist.'
Marvin shook his head and thought, 'After I leave this place, not only do I have to prevent the Azure Matriarch from releasing the World Ending Twin Snakes, but I'll have to fend off those people in the Sky Tower who will all be looking at me covetously!'
'White River Valley might be attacked because of me!'
His mood couldn't help sinking as he brooded over this.
White River Valley was the place he had sworn to protect. He definitely couldn't let it come to harm.
The only saving grace was that Marvin had established a Sanctuary early on, so it shouldn't have a problem in the short term.
As long as he could settle the problem of the Fate Tablet!
Indeed, at this moment, Marvin had no way out.
He could only find the key to unlock the mystery of the Fate Tablet and figure out the truth of the matter.
Gathering all the pages of the Book of Nalu was basically a futile endeavor.
But Marvin didn't give up.
He felt that there was perhaps only one person in the world that could solve this predicament: Marvin himself!
He already had 7 pages of the Book of Nalu gathered.
Another 4 pages and he might be able to settle this problem.

When the 4th Fate Tablet was unlocked, he would just have to deal with whatever happened then.
After all, the current situation was already becoming more and more complicated, and Marvin was facing enemies that were more and more powerful.
Although he didn't want to walk the path of ascension to Godhood, he might have to stake it all as a last resort.
'The situation outside shouldn't be too bad.'
'Many people are seeking to cause my death, this is for sure. But Ivan and the others are worth trusting, and the Gods should be close to killing that Astral Beast. I shouldn't have more than a month to prepare.'
'In a month, the opponents I'll have to face won't be just on the level of Divine Servants anymore, but on the level of Gods!'
'Even if the Truth Goddess is biased in my favor and Diross might or might not be supporting me, it's definitely different for the other forces.'
'It's still vital for me to get stronger.'
'And the fastest path might really be the path of reuniting the pages of the Book of Nalu.'
The Fate Tablet contained very frightening power.
Even if he chose not to use it to ascend, Marvin could surely draw a large number of Comprehension points from it.
These comprehension points might be enough for him to reach the level 29 limit!
At that time, there should be very few beings in the entire Universe that could deal with Marvin.
…
After deciding on his next steps, Marvin relaxed a bit.
At that time, the Vampire Primogenitor suddenly flashed over.
He was holding a book with a scarlet cover in his hands, looking very pleased.
"Found what you wanted?" Yin's words hinted at something.
Marvin's heart skipped a beat as he blurted, "You already know?"
Yin shrugged. "For an old thing like me, even though there are many matters that I cannot stand, there is still one good point, which is that I know many things," he explained.

"The 4th Fate Tablet, such tempting words. Isn't it just a fuse to create chaos?"
"I don't dare touch that thing. But I'm still very curious... What's stopping you from just using it?"
Marvin bluntly answered, "The key."
"Only the one holding the key of the Fate Tablet can truly open it. It is useless otherwise."
Yin exposed a knowing smile as he looked at Marvin with sympathy. "You must be very upset now?"
"It's like being in a treasure room but being unable to plunder it."
"There is nothing I can do about it," Marvin muttered as he spread out his hands. "Oh right, what are you going to do next? Concerning the World Ending Twin Snakes?"
Yin rolled his eyes with a strange smile plastered on his face. "In fact, I never had any intention of dealing with the Twin Snakes."
Marvin frowned.
"It would be better not to become hostile," Yin explained. "It might be heresy in the eyes of those who live in Feinan, but as the Vampire Primogenitor, I don't really identify myself with this world. It doesn't matter to me if it's destroyed."
"In fact, after I got a hold of the Vampires' Secret Precepts, I regained the ability to leave this place at any time to return to my old nest. This book was created jointly by all the Vampire Primogenitors. The rest fell one by one in the long rivers of history. Only I have survived, so this power belongs to me."
"Speaking of which, I am a lot stronger than you in my current state. Falling out with me certainly wouldn't be a sensible move."
"On the contrary, you should actually start thinking about how to protect yourself. The World Ending Twin Snakes, the Gods… You have the entire Universe as your enemy."
Marvin didn't care about Yin's mockery.
Instead, he asked about something in his words. "Do you mean that the World Ending Twin Snakes will definitely appear?"
Yin softly laughed. "Those two snakes have been shackled for so many years, how could they be willing to remain quiet? I would advise that you make preparations."
"But I am very optimistic about you. So I decided to make a deal with you before I leave."
Marvin answered, "What deal?"
Yin took out a black cloak. "The road to escape from here won't be easy. The Gods' Divination, Tracking Spells, Time Tracking, they are all beyond what you can imagine."
"This cloak is a Lesser Artifact. I can give it to you free of charge. It will help you cover your aura. Even if Grant tried, he definitely wouldn't be able to find any trace of you."
"But I must inform you that this Artifact is a consumable item. It can only be used twice."
Marvin didn't take the cloak yet. He instead lowered his voice and prodded, "What do I need to do?"
Yin shrugged noncommittally. "Although the hope is very faint, if you really manage to find the key to the Fate Tablet and become someone on the level of the three Great Gods, remember that you owe me, or the Vampire Clan."
Marvin nodded.
This deal could be considered an investment. Yin investing in Marvin.
Thus, he unceremoniously received the cloak.
Yin randomly decided to ask, "What is the key in the end?"
As he put the cloak away, Marvin answered with a smile, "The Book of Nalu."
Yin was stunned for a moment before he cursed, "Hell! That is simply impossible!"
"Can I have my cloak back?"
With a voice dripping with schadenfreude, Marvin gleefully responded, "That is simply impossible."

Sylph Resurgence
Our protagonist Kai has his mother taken away from him at a young age, an act apparently committed by demons. Now, 7 years on, Kai embarks on a new adventure as he begins the new school year at the esteemed Zion Academy in the kingdom of Nirvania, where adventures await him in a world embroiled in tensions which is full of surprises and mysteries at the same time. A month has passed since Night Wing's incursion on the capital of Nirvania, Nirvana. However, that isn't the end of Nirvania's problems, with war against its warmongering neighbour, Miran looking ever more likely than before. To make matters worse, tensions have been stoked between the Sylph Kingdom and Nirvania by the Chaos Legion, the true enemies hiding in the darkness, opening the possibility to a war on 2 fronts. Kai may only be a 2nd Year student at Zion Academy, but the raging storms of this chaotic era spare no one, especially given his close ties to Adeline, the Sylph Princess. Can Kai circumvent the tides of chaos and live to see the end of what is likely to be a 3rd Holy War? Will Nirvania stand strong against its foes, or crumble and be washed away by the sands of time? 2 years had passed since the conclusion of the 3rd Holy War, which was achieved by the combined efforts of the Nirvanian Army, the 10 Saints and Kai's team, which have been affectionately known thereafter as the Rising 8; a group of rapidly rising youths revered as national heroes for their contributions in putting an end to the 3rd Holy War. Moreover, relations between all 4 Kingdoms on the Central Continent, namely Nirvania, Miran, Cameron and the Sylph Kingdom, have reached unprecedented heights, ushering an age of peace. However, danger lies ever closer, with the Chaos Legion staying low over the past 2 years, awaiting the perfect opportunity to rear its ugly head. Even though Kai had trained hard over the past 2 years to master both his demonic and Sylph ancestry, when the battle has evolved from between mortals to that of the seemingly immortal Chaos Generals, can Kai and his fellow Nirvanians rise above the odds with their allies and vanquish the chaos?

First RE:Guards
Status: Never to return again in this form (But the characters shall appear in a rewrite) I used to be a fire fighter. The requirements were easy enough with today's technology. Machines did the heavy lifting. Artificial intelligences put together action plans with the greatest resolution possible. Most days were simple jobs, first aid on minor fires, cats stuck in pipes too fine for machines, or when alarms went off that normal security scans couldn't eliminate. Most of the time our only skill was being willing to go into dangerous areas and follow orders, only I died running into the latest in biological terror. A beast that spawned fire. I remember the pain, it overwhelmed everything. Now I've woken in a new sort of existence. One where the only creature to view is a little girl, and she needs my help. Isabella Brand. Izzy, my one light in world of darkness and pain. She has the makings of a mage in her world and I'm going to be her spirit animal.
