Murim Recurve Chapter 258
Advertisement
"My eyes…look normal now!" Re'Kha exclaimed in shock, looking at her appearance in the mirror, gazing at Mu'Tua excitedly, "Wow, you have an amazing item in your hands, grandma."
"Of course," Mu'Tua smiled, sighing internally with a forlorn expression, "I had to act as a spy during my younger days. Since we are able to heal ourselves from any injury, we Harmonisers from the Mu Clan are also trained and sent to other countries as spies."
"And, each race looks completely different from one another, whether it be the eye colour, body size, shape, the number of limbs, etc. So, to disguise ourselves accordingly, just a layer of covering isn't enough. Rather, it just raises suspicion among the foreign races. So, we have created Magic Artifacts that help us in achieving it." Mu'Tua patted Re'Kha, rubbing her bald head.
She then sighed, telling Re'Kha, "Every day, use this item to turn your eyes blue. This way, you can avoid most of the suspicion and troubles."
She then gave Re'Kha the second item, a long tube with thin bristles at the end, blue in colour, "This too is a Magic Artifact created in the capital. This helps dye your hair. It is unlike the normal dye that normal spies have access to. As I had to infiltrate their equivalent of a Harmoniser Clan, I was given this item."
Saying so, she patted the item once, "This Magic Artifact works similar to the eye Magic Artifact. It completely changes the inherent colour of your hair. So, whether your hair comes into contact with water, acid, poison, fire, etc. its colour will never change for a month. You have to apply the colour every month, since the moment its duration of effect ends, your hair will revert to its natural colour within ten breaths."
"And, for both the Magic Artifacts, you can only use them once your hair and eye colour revert back to normal. So, you have to keep track of the time you applied and apply it immediately after its effect vanishes. Keep that in mind, alright." Mu'Tua looked at Re'Kha, telling her the ways to use the tube-shaped Magic Artifact, also informing her of the other know-how of the two items.

"Thank you, grandma. You made my life easier," Re'Kha teared up, gazing at the reflection, realising that she no longer had to keep on hiding herself and lie at every turn of her life. She was never a fan of lies and having to lie made her feel horrible.
At least, she would no longer have to worry about her appearance and be able to roam around normally without looking suspicious. She had enough of the gazes she received while in Burfuna city.
In Burkurel City, it would be even more difficult since a lot of people were able to recognise her appearance there.
"Anything for you, my child." Mu'Tua patted her head, "Be safe, don't antagonise your mother too much. She is an ambitious individual, so as long as you don't hinder her or look like a threat to her enemies, you will be able to avoid most of the conflicts."
She then made eye contact with Re'Kha, "Besides, you have 12 units of Water Qi now. So, it's time you are prepared to enter the Water Sect. You'll have the best environment to improve yourself there."
"Besides," Mu'Tua said with a derisive sneer, "Just like most of the Elemental Clans, your Burkurel Re Clan only has two Pranic Arts. And, a Hand Projection is not versatile enough for your use in future battles. But in the Water Sect, you'll be able to learn many Pranic Arts."
Her voice turned serious, "And, only in the Water Sect would you be able to develop into a bonafide Harmoniser. Despite her inferior talent, your mother used the opportunities in the Water Sect to grow leaps and bounds in strength. That's how she was able to push aside all opposition and reach her current position."
"Also," She took a parchment, writing down some instructions on it, "The competition to enter the Water Sect is tough, since all the water-based Harmonisers or normal people trying to become one from all over the country attempt it. So, even if you fail to enter it, don't be hard on yourself."

She finished inscribing details on the parchment, giving it to Re'Kha, "The Water Sect only accepts the water-based Harmonisers and trains them to the limit and develops them in many fields other than fighting too. But, you should also remember that four other sects accept all Harmonisers."
"There's the Southern Sect in the state of Gasha, Western Sect in the state of Warle, Eastern Sect in the state of Pilthki, and the Northern Sect in the state of Dishe. There, you'll primarily be trained in the way of fighting as everything you learn there will be related to that. And, chances of entering there is relatively higher as compared to entering the Water Sect since there are four of them. And, if you have exemplary performance, you'll even obtain the opportunity to enter the Central Sect that's directly under the eye of the Fourth Celestial Emperor." Mu'Tua took in a deep breath, feeling exhausted after speaking without break.
She then exhaled, "So, one way or another, enter a Sect, and don't return to your Clan until its volatile atmosphere has settled down."
"I'll do that then," Re'Kha nodded, looking at the scroll, opening it to see that a lot of dates and locations were specified on it.
Mu'Tua informed her of the details, "They show the places the entrance exams to the four Directional Sects would be conducted and the time of the year they occur. I have also included the exam location to the Water Sect just in case your Clan's politics hinder you. One way or another, escape from that chaos before you are swallowed up by it."
"I'll do as you say, grandma." Re'Kha bowed in gratitude. For, Mu'Tua had helped her a lot over the past few months, not expecting anything in return. Moreover, she also understood that Mu'Tua was shouldering a lot of risk by lending Re'Kha the two disguise items.
If it was discovered, she would be killed immediately by the Royal Clan, no questions asked. Just the fact that she was willing to risk her life to help her made Re'Kha grateful to her, vowing that she wouldn't ever do anything that would trouble her.
Evening approached as a cycle rickshaw stopped before the house. And exiting it was a lady with a regal aura, her every step suffusing with dominance.

From the 18th of August, the voting system will change. Power Stones would be replaced by Golden Tickets. And, every GT has an immense value that would directly support the novel's serialisation.
You can obtain it in the following way: 1 GT for spending 300 coins (Stacks up for every 300 coins)
1 GT by gifting worth 300 coins
1 GT for buying a membership
It expires every month, so cast it on Murim Recurve (You'll get a GT even if you spend on other novels, but you must put it here.)
If you have spent more than 300 coins last month, you'll be awarded one GT this month on the 18th. Don't forget to vote for Murim Recurve with that. I promise to release an extra chapter for every 20 GT. (PS. I have a 20 chapter stockpile~)

Note: Sadly, all things must come to an end and Volume 1 has been officially completed. Since I have now published the whole volume on amazon and enrolled it into KDP select, I can no longer keep the book uploaded on other platforms as per their requirements. Apologies for the inconvenience. If, by any chance, you'd like to support me there, you can find the book here: https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07MRDFR7V What do you do when life‘s got you hunched on the ground, crying and screaming for your mother?

And it just so happened that one such world was available and open for the downtrodden and distraught. Alternative Reality - a virtual reality platform with a suspiciously unoriginal name, already established as the most life-like experience one could spend their time on and Luke had plenty of time to spare. Now? He’s more than just Luke, the social outcast. Now, he’s also Wail - a lunatic magician who plays with fire without the mental aptitude or sense of responsibility necessary to safely handle it. Add in a petty and spiteful character and the conditions for mayhem are fully satisfied. Join now and witness his adventures, while the world around burns with more than a bit of fault falling upon his downward sloping shoulders. Disclaimer! The book contains morally ambiguous choices, violence, arson, vandalism, unnecessarily satirical portrayal of religious zealotry, profanity, background forced labor that looms dangerously close to slavery and much, much more.

Gods of Arkanoth
The hunter has been betrayed, left alone in the streets of a lugubrious district. Only one goal appears in his eyes: to avenge himself. In his quest to avenge himself, he'll encounter an enigmatic scientist who seems to hide his true nature, a savior pretending to be a God, and the terrible truth of those words, bringing him against something he'd never thought he'd have to affront. This is the odyssey of the hunter, in a quest to put a long overdue end to a war between two worlds. // What to expect:The beginning will surely be intriguing, most of what's happeing won't be directly explained, although there will be some hints about their true roles, but do not worry about some subjects never leaving that misty fog that is unanswered questions! The novel is divided in two parts, the first focusing on uncovering the well-hidden secrets the city of Arkanoth hides, be it concerning its making or its inhabitants. As for the second part, it will be an expedition into the unknown, we could, in a way, say the true start of the journey our three heroes will undertake! I won't say anything more about the second part or else I might tell you an important detail without realizing... As for magic, because yes, there is magic! Although you might not see the shadow of a spell in the first chapters, it will appear in later chapters and will be one of the main subjects of volume 2. There are three heroes, yes, but they will not appear directly. While the first two protagonists appear in quite the beginning, the third will take his time, taking some stroll in the Districts of Arkanoth while we focus on the story of the hunter. But that does not lessen his importance in the story a bit, trust me. What about these three heroes, you say? Well, they all have their own issues, from their character to their torments, and as the story progresses they will have to come clean with their past (character development is to be expected) and will find their reason for fighting, braving all odds. I draw my inspiration from mythology, more precisely Aztec mythology. I want to stay true to a certain extent about it and all the relations between the gods and their role, however I will still change some things to my liking, so do not expect for all of the mythology to be respected to the letter. Finally! I have to say English is a foreign langage for me, so I might not choose the best words or straight-up miswrite something, if it bothers your experience, just tell me in the comments and I'll look into it! It is also my first time writing a book, so some parts might seem sloppy, but I hope I will be able to improve throughout this journey so as to give the most enjoyable reading experience to you. // Who might enjoy this story: Firstly, if you like deep lore and stories in which past plays a big role, you will like how everything unravels to show the hidden truths of the world. However if you do not appreciate not instantly understanding what's happening or who - or even what - this person might be, then you might not appreciate the story. There will be disturbing and gore descriptions, so if you're sensitive, don't like reading about someone being beheaded and such, you should probably pass this one. There is strong langage, although I won't abuse it, I won't be lying saying no insults will appear. Finally, the heroes will not always win, they will sometime lose battles, be it important ones or unimportant, and they will, most of the time, not come out unscathed from those. // Time Schedule : once every two sundays at 7:pm Ps : feel free to tell me if something is bad, or feel wrong with the book, it really helps me. I've written till' chapter 4 (in my mother tongue, so I'll still have to translate), however I'll make some minor and major changes, thus it will take some time to post them. Schedule will probably not change after releasing chapter 4, so don't worry, it won't take even longer to post a chapter than it already is. Enjoy the ride :)
