The Witcher: The last King of the elvesChapter 31 – Preparations"Your Majesty!"In the border area where Thranduil had gathered with his soldiers, an elf who seemed to be in charge of the vanguard army said: “During this hunt, we killed more than 100,000 magical beasts and collected over 87,000 magic crystals, as well as some energy cores.”As was customary, the elves placed the resources in front of him.They did not ask what their king did, nor how he discovered the magic crystals. ...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 272 - The SightingHearing the tall man’s words, George was shocked—the other side actually wanted to turn the people of Hilltop into their slaves?At that moment, the sound of a branch snapping came from behind the two of them.“We’ve got people behind us!”They were about to instinctively draw their weapons and fire when they heard a very familiar voice from behind.“It’s me!”“Jesus?” George looked at the long-haired man and asked...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 271 - An AnomalyWhen Shane lowered the radio, he looked at Lori with a tired expression. He could only console her with a few words, but obviously this woman wouldn’t listen since she insisted that he personally go look for Rick.Unable to do anything, he simply turned his gaze toward the women who had surrounded him a few minutes ago, but Amy was already aware of Lori’s annoying behavior, and just when she was about to step forward and help, s...

The Witcher: The last King of the elvesChapter 30 - A King Without a Crown“My path will be stained with blood.” Cold water splashed across Thranduil’s face and flowed down the smooth curve of his cheek, carrying away the lingering anger and tension from his body.The reflection in the water showed a man forged by battles, nourished by knowledge he had never asked for. Perhaps the being he once was before coming to this world had already vanished from his memories.Now he was someone else—a...

The Witcher: The last King of the elvesChapter 29 - The War That Has Yet to Break OutHe knew it thanks to the inheritance he had obtained from the Tree of Life.Thranduil learned that the reason this nameless continent had not been dominated by demons was because of the elves, who, since the beginning of the invasion of hostile races, had been at war against them all.The elves had ignored the humans, focusing only on the demons.And the reason why humans were able to sweep across the Continent was...

The Witcher: The last King of the elvesChapter 28 - The World in My HandAfter searching for hours, Thranduil found nothing else of interest for himself or his people. However, even so, this journey had not been a waste of time.Once he found nothing more, Thranduil left the treasury and stepped outside.Looking at the Scepter of the Solar Elf King in his hand, which seemed to be made of very ancient white oak, he felt increasingly satisfied.The scepter was engraved with elven patterns all over, an...

The Witcher: The last King of the elvesChapter 27 - A LegacyInside the treasury, dense figures appeared. Each figure was formed by the convergence of countless stars, emitting a brilliant radiance. Even without the fireballs suspended above them, they could illuminate the entire treasury.“What are they?”“Ghosts? No, there are no magical fluctuations or traces of a malignant aura. They are not a true form of intelligent life; this is more like a magical projection.”Thranduil extended his ...

A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 25 - A Chaotic PlaceThe Healing Church is a large organization spread across the world, and although it is funded by the governments of different countries, it remains secret even within those nations.In many places around the world, darkness reigns in silence. A good example would be those countries that have always lived in war or where evil exists. Darkness manifests in different ways, and even if they are prepared, many times they lose the battle wit...

A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 23 – Dustin’s Request for HelpDustin’s tone was a little excited.Jonathan frowned and listened for a long while before he could understand what the other side was saying.“Do you mean that your good friend Will is missing?”On the other end of the phone, Dustin, who had called the number from his father’s friend, said: “Yes! He must have been captured by the Demogorgon!”But then another boy’s voice was heard nearby. “Dustin, that’s a ...

A simple priest... Or so I thoughtChapter 22 – A CallWhen Jonathan opened his eyes, Father Doug’s watchful gaze was fixed on him with great anxiety. “Is everything done?”“Yes, this boy is free from all evil.” Jonathan withdrew his hand from the child’s head and looked at Mr. Lambert, then gave him a slight nod.“Darling, Renai, you can come up now!” shouted Mr. Lambert with a look full of anxiety.As soon as the words left his mouth, hurried footsteps were heard from the stairs, ...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 270 – Lori’s ConcernsAt that moment, Morgan and Guillermo also rushed into the room, and Gerry’s movements on the bed frightened them as well. The man they had been talking and laughing with just yesterday had simply disappeared, and now the walker was tied to the bed.Rick seemed to be the most affected of his group, then he handed the letter in his hand to Morgan and the others, and helped Elen—who was breathless and couldn’t stop cryin...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 269 – The Decision to Be a BurdenThis group, which in reality seemed more like a family, looked in silence at the trio led by Rick. Unexpectedly, they only mentioned the leader who was not currently with their group, but even so, they spoke very highly of that man. There was no need to be very observant to know that all these men had been saved by him.Elen couldn’t help but feel very interested in that person. She repeated his name silently ag...

The Witcher: The last King of the elvesChapter 26 - The PastThe information about the treasure of the elven capital was only told through the knowledge the Tree of Life delivered to Thranduil after he nourished it with what it needed to survive.It wasn’t that the ancient king had intentionally wanted to keep it secret. It was because when the Elven Empire collapsed, the entire capital had been looted, not to mention the national treasury. Thranduil would be lucky to find half a gold coin.There...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 268 – We Are the Future of HumanityIt was clear the others were a little nervous, but the family seemed fine. At least the girl from before didn’t seem like a bad person. So Rick took the lead and placed his gun on the coffee table in front of him.The girl pulled up a chair, eyed the weapons the three men had laid down, and couldn’t help sighing with exhaustion."Did you bring every weapon in the city?"Morgan looked a little embarrass...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 267 - Bewildering Situation"Stop!"Guillermo slammed on the brakes at Rick’s command, glancing around nervously, thinking he had stumbled into some unseen danger."To the right—look, there are survivors up there." Rick pointed toward a small building ahead, signaling Guillermo to drive in that direction. Guillermo let out a secret sigh of relief, having thought it was some kind of ambush. Soon, the car slowed down. Rick took the ...

Anatomy of a KillerChapter 113 – The Necessary DarknessThe next morning, Larry arrived early at the center. All the test results and comparisons he had sent in had already come back.A sample of greenish fluid had been extracted from the tissue found in the rented apartment of the deceased, Amber, and indeed, male DNA had been detected.However, due to the large amount of tissue remaining, the extraction had not yet been completed.He rushed back to the office with the report, which listed every ...

Anatomy of a KillerChapter 112 – Memories“I’m going to take that vacation I need once this case is over.” Max had come to this conclusion after everything that had happened today.The owner of the music shop was so frightened that she covered her mouth and nodded vigorously.Jane looked at Larry in shock. She hadn’t expected him to say something like that. One had to be careful—any word could be misinterpreted, the media would twist the story, and that made the police investigation muc...

The Witcher: The last King of the elvesChapter 25 – SpringThranduil stood before the fountain that granted vitality to the lake, turning all the water into a substance brimming with life.To achieve this, he had to consume the greater part of the magic crystals he carried in his pockets.The advanced magical spring could condense elven spring water of high purity. Its effect was more than ten times stronger than that of lower-level elven spring water.As usual, Thranduil ordered the elves to draw...

The Witcher: The last King of the elvesChapter 24 – The Roar of the Fire DragonAn amount of five thousand magic crystals, while not excessive, was by no means a small quantity.The legions of elves under his command could easily complete a hunt in a single day and store even greater numbers of magic crystals in the warehouses.But from another perspective, these crystals could be used to strengthen his army and expand his troops, which could hardly be described as a small number.“Using five th...

The Witcher: The last King of the elvesChapter 23 – PowerThe race of elves in different worlds was not among the most powerful; they were by no means considered the lords of those planets that existed across the lines of time.Thranduil, with his inherited knowledge, knew that of all those worlds, his own was one of those in decline.Elves were hunted for their beauty, considered pearls by humans. In every reality, elves were desired by those wicked humans.Even demons, who were rarely a race pow...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 266 – Rick’s DecisionShane shook his head slightly, but his eyes drifted toward the entrance to the second floor.Guillermo, who was behind him, also came closer and asked with some confusion: “There aren’t any walkers around, and the door wasn’t even locked. Why hasn’t anyone come here to look for supplies? It’s so strange!”“Do you think the people in this area evacuated at the start of the chaos? I highly doubt this is some kind...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 265 – Back to the Central BaseOn the outskirts of Atlanta, there was a warehouse full of supplies.Today, Rick led a team to organize a large-scale collection operation. It had been three months since he had taken the last military base, and this was the first time he personally led a team after reorganizing the supplies.Shane had also come to Rick’s base to help him organize the operation, while at the Growth Base, Elias was currently serving ...

Stay AliveChapter 98 – CommunicationAlan walked into the room where Elias and a man named Billy were working. Both of them were trying to repair the radio, so he asked, “Can it be fixed?”“It can. I’m just replacing a few burnt-out parts, and it’ll be in perfect working order,” Elias replied. He was an expert at repairing radios; he used to have many of them and always handled their maintenance to make them last longer.Even though the situation was urgent, things were calm. Alan did...

Stay AliveChapter 97 – Gratitude and RequestAlan spoke at length with Lee, answering all his questions while they waited for Elias to give a clear answer on whether or not he could help him with his radio.If he could fix his broken radio, it would be far more effective than using another one.Everything had gone surprisingly well for a first meeting, but that was about to change when Merle woke up and began cursing at everyone.“Just answer me one question—where is the shelter you came from?...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 264 – KnowledgeThe middle-aged man didn’t look pleased when he heard their enemy had been captured. Unlike the others, who were crying with joy, the older man pushed the excited Stevens aside and said:“Tell me exactly what just happened, in detail.”After Stevens gave his explanation, the middle-aged man looked at him with clear annoyance. Stevens’ heart skipped a beat—he knew this elder didn’t approve of his trusting strangers.Ignori...

A New Beginning From the End of the WorldChapter 263 – In a Few MinutesJason quickly climbed to the top of the slope—yes, it could only be called the top of a slope, not a mountain at all.Once at the top, he found an open space that wasn’t too small, with no fences around it and only a few wooden houses. They looked exactly like the wooden houses in the camp below, likely built by the same person.At that moment, the entrances and exits on both sides of the slope’s summit were indeed guar...

The Supreme State of ScienceChapter 64 – The Boy Worth BillionsThe desire for immortality is something so distant for humans that it could only be imagined in dreams. But what if it could become reality? In that case, no matter the price, everyone would seek to be part of that idea—an idea with solid foundations capable of changing the course of history.Jimmy didn’t need money. What he required was the power these people possessed—the power to expand his empire without borders. It didn...

Anatomy of a KillerChapter 111 – The red roomBlood. Blood everywhere.The bathtub, not very large, was coated inside and out with blackened blood. As it had evaporated and decomposed, it left dark ring-like stains along the tub.On the sink, many small black fragments lay scattered—on a cutting board and next to a knife.Tiny pieces were mixed among drops of blood and pooled stains. A white, semicircular object lay near the doorway. Larry bent down, picked it up, and examined it carefully.“On...

Anatomy of a KillerChapter 110 – Something DeeperShortly after Max ran off in search of the bathrooms in the hospital, Larry received a call from Jack, who was still on-site.“What’s wrong with Max?”“I think the Mexican food we ate on the street didn’t sit well with him. Must have a stomach sensitive to spicy food.” Larry handed Jane his car keys and kept talking on the phone.“Well, there are doctors here who can hook him up to an IV… Anyway, remember not to eat at random public...
