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 241

I raised an eyebrow and leaned back as my instincts sounded a minor alarm. That smile was full of malice, though from her thoughts I could see that whatever this idea was it wouldn't actually hurt or kill me. I wish I knew what it was, but she was blocking that from me, most likely because she wanted to see me sweat.

Too bad for her.

"Have you forgotten what you put me through?"

My voice was cold and soft, but the lost queen's smile faded somewhat, and I could feel an emotion rise in her. It wasn't guilt, but something similar, though it felt more like she was sorry because it inconvenienced her at this point and not because she actually cared about how it had affected me.

"What's the idea," I said, wanting to move away from the topic. This was the second time today it had been brought up, and if it happened again, my mood would deteriorate.

"It would involve me taking a hold of your mind and making a few tweaks so that sensing the power is easier."
