Aether Beasts

Long ago a great calamity struck the earth, destroying much of it and merging what remained with pieces of other worlds. With these worlds came Aether, a new form of energy that can allow one to transcend the bounds of normal mortality and human limitations. In a world where humans absorb the essence of aether beasts to gain power, Aiden Hawke joins the class of humans known as arcanists, people who defeat aether beasts and absorb their essence into cores they forge within themselves, and who infuse themselves with the aether that permeates the world around them to increase the power of their body and mind. However, unlike most, Aiden will find that he holds a unique gift and that his journey as an arcanist will not be so simple.

Chapter 222

[Probably next week I'm going to be releasing an auxiliary chapter about the magic system, but not spoiling anything and I'll update it as the novel progresses.]

"Are you two ready?"

Zirani looked confident and honestly, Misty and I felt the same. At least that's what I was sensing through our bond. We were currently eating a light breakfast, and it was just two hours before the fight which was set to take place at the twelfth hour. My body felt fully refreshed and full of energy after the long sleep yesterday. I usually only slept for a few hours now, but yesterday I had gone to sleep early and I had woke up just an hour ago.

"How many people do you think are going to be there?"

"Everyone for the most part," Zirani answered. "The expedition isn't large and it's had over four days spread, not to mention whose fighting. Two students of the princess? Everyone's going to want to see this."

"No pressure," I said.

"Worried?" Zirani glanced at me.
