"Intelligence" might be the translation from Eloan language. A literal translation might be "brain strength" due to some historical cultural theory when it is really just the defining factor for spell power. Or Ilea's System interpreting this world's effects into something familiar, ie:how it works in games on Earth.

Lowe K. Lyesmith

All in measure, yes. Those arcs are nice when they stand in contrast to the monster - bashing and exploring, but they can be too much when all mushed together. Some different POVs are well appreciated, though.

Zir

they are the best part of the story for me, the fighting is all fine and dandy, but it is only satisfying after a nice break of enjoyable world building and reactions. i wish more chinese web novels followed a similar style >.<

Fortunis

Ya know, the whole "Brute" thing has always been one of my issues with this story. One of ilea's primary attributes is intelligence. But she doesn't actually DO anything with it. She hasn't dont research on gate tech, she hasn't even bothered to learn the runes for the basis of Enchanting. She literally just punches shit and 3wts and fucks. Yah she has friends and employees who can do all that, but this chick is going to live for centuries if she doesn't die to a beast. Learn soke languages, learn a craft, fuck learn to bake. Literally anything that shows shes not just a semi invulnerable thug with healing powers.

Nate

She's a very similar person to Ilea, in a lot of ways. Too bad they'd never get along lol.

Gustavo Claude

The Shadow Hand's Pierce is of same family of this Elizabeth Pierce, member of the Lily

Pierre Steiner

Is that the same Pierce as Dragon Killer or whatever her name was? Class doesn't check out but she seems to know Illea personaly

Jasonzerowars Playes

Mmm so the powers that be are thrashing there last for Ilea’s power and allies are immovable and resistant to all that may attack!

Silk Soda

tbh, was kinda expecting that Ilea had a mark on her and just warped in whenever she stopped moving for long enough.

Shin

Yes either a sister or maybe ancestor

ShotoGun

Is this pierce related to the shadow hand elder?

Lowe K. Lyesmith

Hm. These 'civilisation - arcs' get kind of boring by now. We need to see Ikea brave the wilds again!

tibbish

Yeah they know to some extent they're full of BS. They're just trying to protect their privilege and power by any means necessary.

Ulbert

It’s the end of their world. And their copium is death and destruction.

FancyPantsu

I love seeing the misguided, small-minded, petty, and resentful motivations of the "bad guys". They're so convinced that the Accords is the end of the world, when really it's just the beginning of a better one.

Ulbert

Oh. And I mean this in the best way possible. Peace is great and all and I love peace. God damn I wouldn’t wanna live in a warzone… But having a beat-stick like the beings of the accords? Well. Authoritarian regime all the way.

Ulbert

And because there will be always dissenters, butthurt losers, lunatics and idiots who don’t see the light despite it being shone into their face… Diplomacy is for losers. As a wise man once said: “ABANDON REASON! KNOW ONLY WAR!” Truly ahead of his time.

Leviathon251

What's left of Elizabeth once Ilea is done with her won't be pretty either. Thanks for the chapter!

Arexio R.

ugh the plains are not going to be pretty....

I think the duplicated gate technology, even inferior, was introduced a bit too soon. It was previously stressed how much work and effort went into making the technology. A lot of chapters before it finally worked. That's just me being nit-picky. This arc altogether is the most exciting we've had in a while. Everytime new chapters are released I have to drop everything to read them asap. I'm sure others feel the same. So don't give them too much of a hard time when people complain about the breaks and missed posts! Feel free to make up for the missed chapters ;)

lenkite

Well the tougher-than-taleen gates were reverse engineered in months. Poor Meadow needs to be upgraded.

Jonathan Walker

I agree just let Illea do what she wants and bang heads together and get answers also Illea has some seriously impressive tracking skills at lvl 600+ so how the hell do people keep getting away?

Brian

11.5/10

mike

That's exactly the sort of impulsive thing an angry Ilea would do too. It could even stir up some more panic in Helena.

InsaneHyde

Elizabeth stresses the point that her name is Ilea but calls her Lilith a few moments later....

yannick schwende

Fania is more of a chaotic alignment than I thought. Chaos for choas sake

Enzo Elacqua

I gotta say one of my favorite things about this world, is just how simple it is to get stronger. Literally just go hunting for monsters and you get stronger, sure maybe some have advantages that make them hunt quicker or something, but at the end of the day it’s just hunting

tibbish

Maybe if Elizabeth goes full psycho and starts sacrificing whole cities of humans. Otherwise at least some of the other Lily members (Helena) appear to be spazzing out too and appear to be willing to let Elizabeth do what they want for now.

InkyBusiness

Awesome more chaps!

Aapjuh

Wouldn't the lily band against elizabeth and betray her or leak info to the accords, they are all about a stabilized humanity, elizabeth going full on chaos is exactly what lily is against.

tibbish

Honestly Ilea should be able to see them almost no matter what. Her perception and tracking skills were strong even when she was 'only' L200 and have only gotten stronger.

Meh

If there are people with skills where they can hide right in front of Ilea, and then run away, what's stopping them from killing any of the leaders of all the countries? They originally cooperated out of fear for ilea the only 3 mark human with so much power. They should be jumping to help investigate who was behind all this the moment they hear the news, no need to push

Meh

There's just one point that I believe was missed from this and the previous chapter.

tibbish

While the idea of various powerful people getting pissed and trying to sabotage things from the shadows to maintain their priviliage or for racist reasons is great and totally reasonable this arc feels pretty hamfisted and forced so far. The gates getting figured out so fast still makes no sense at all since those same people would've been studying Taleen gates to no effect for centuries so studying the Alliance gates shouldn't matter a bit. Also the Alliance acting like their hands are tied here is laughable too. Secret gates all leading back to 1 country = that country is certainly involved. That plus any of the enemy survivors would know all kinds of information too that would incriminate the country in question. While avoiding all out war is good Ilea would easily be justified in going into Niphia and various other related countries and banging together some royal heads. Also Claire and the others could've easily held on to the various prisoners by pointing out they broke the Alliances rules by using illegal gates. Remember its not a modern legalistic society with a strong respect for the rule of law by the strong they're in: its a Medevialish one. Contracts, treaties, etc. were very much open to interpretation and lots of leeway was given with enforcement in those times when the powerful were involved directly. Again the basic premise of the arc is solid but the initial set up is lacking.

Cormac

What is our Pierce's first name? It can't be "Dragonkiller".

Jonathan

I doubt the Lily is unified in this. A visit by Ilea to Helena could be productive.

IJustWannaRead

Lmao, the fact she thinks hunting a little is gonna help her survive the next time they actually meet each other…she may think she’s reasonable but she’s still delusional, even a 100 more levels and she’d be dead in seconds, she saw some weak ass spells and shit her pants….

Luciaron

Thanks for the chapters!

Doodlyboy15

Who is pierce again? Not the same one Illia traveled with right?

Adurna

Ooh Pierce! I was not expecting such vehemence.

Endoria

I am getting really sick of all the new points of view. I could skip the chapters and not miss anything...

Falxie

Thats not how rest works… might be because ur american and a slave to the corp world, but literaly every other country has mandetory paid days off. In the EU 20-37. we work a couple weeks then make a vacation and repeat. Thats very important for your mental health, productivity (less equals more) and overall happiness.

Joshua Little

Unlikely, assassins rarely make altruistic healers.

Joshua Little

Thanks for the chapter.

Monika Djomi

Also I'm kinda confused about the authors note. I don't recall any planned break for next week. Also multiple breaks ( in my opinion) is frankly annoying. I feel it's better for both the readers and the author to take 1 long break. Like a few weeks or so. That way you have a lot of time to rest and recuperate and the readers don't feel cheated out of chapters.

Monika Djomi

Totally agree with you on that one.

Vortozan

Wonderful chapters as always. Thank you for the thrill of reading! Stop freaking out so much about dead lines as well, your story is amazing just go at your own pace <3

Xhaare

I still find it a stretch that the gates were copied so fast. If you go back and read, the Meadow specifically says these Gates are greater and even harder to crack than the Taleen. Even with some cross referencing with the Meadow and other enchanters, to crack something in a week when the Taleen gates have been studied for centuries, even millennia seems forced. Unless a Lily founder is involved, it’s kinda bs.

Vortozan

Your ideas both frighten and excite me. Write a book mate O_o

Martin Brandel

That's the point, she didn't go along with that plan because it is counterproductive in the long-term. If they do nothing eventually the accords will influence all of the planes. The only way to stop that is to create a large enough opposed faction due to her authoritarianism.

Thanks for the chapters. ResidentSleeper

MountainFox

Fania sounds like she could be a future Sentinel... if she hadn't tried to kill them already.

MountainFox

This should be her first appearance. Dragonkiller Pierce is a descendant, she's the one over 300.

buca117

When powerful people say, "Fuck it", bad stuff happens.

thkiw

the pit and the taleen weren't the most trustworthy. the first being a collection of prisoners and the other just joined. and you'll have trouble to find high level dark ones to contribute. so yeah, it makes sense. but if it's complete betrayel then that's shit. they don't want them completely out.

lenkite

Wasn't Elizabeth Pierce over 300 ?

Ryan Frank

My guess is its the loss of personal power and influence that is infuriating her. The human plains was pretty much dancing to the tune the lily wanted for hundreds of years minimum and Ilea basically turned that on its head in a couple of years.

Ryan Frank

Honestly attacking Ilea's reputation seems highly counter productive - if she decides she doesn't give a fuck anymore because people distrust her anyway she'll go with the plan she was thinking about earlier in the chapter.

MacDB

I don’t get her personal hatred of llea, I can’t remember their connection other than the Lily.

Ahh thanks

Eyes wide

Member of the lily

Can somone tell me who Elizabeth Pirce was again?

Eyes wide

Make it hurt their is no greater enemy then one that doesn't care about its survival well done I expect massive damage to infrastructure and her reputation who cares if llea kills them all there is worse things then death I hope someone close to her and very important bites the dust Caire would be the best target this should change our main in some way or atleast stick with her and colour her choices like when eve died but bigger . Give me chaos

BlackRazaras

Thanks for the chapter
