Chapter 71: He Couldn’t Even Break Through the Illusion
The more Anthony thought about it, the more shocked he became. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
The other party was looking at him coldly from the side, using the environment runes to force him to use all his methods. The rune ability couldn’t be used indefinitely. No matter what rune it was, there would be a limit.
The time limit, the consumption of spiritual power, and even some of the rune-master’s lifespan would be used up.
Once his rune ability was almost exhausted, the other party could easily harvest his life.
At this time, Anthony’s physical strength was greatly exhausted. His limbs were already starting to become sore, and his spiritual power was also greatly exhausted, especially in order to break the other party’s time restriction.
In an instant, Anthony exploded with a large amount of energy, and for a moment, his mind was a little dizzy.
This was one of the characteristics of mental exhaustion. The most important thing now was to think of a way to get rid of this illusion.
“Break!”
Anthony used the destruction rune again.
This was the most powerful rune he currently had, and it was also the highest level blue rune.
The destruction rune appeared in mid-air, and it quickly changed from a small blue dot to the size of a house, pressing down in mid-air.
Anthony’s expression was filled with dissatisfaction and crazy killing intent. “The illusion requires spiritual power to call itself. Let’s see if you can hold on or if I can hold on.
“When I break your illusion, it will be the moment of your death!”
Anthony shouted sternly.
No matter what, he was still a graduate of the Rune Academy.
He was also the first Prince of the Simon Empire. His status was incomparably noble. Yet, he was actually being played by a brat!

This was simply an insult.
“I really didn’t expect that there would be someone like you around them.
“I heard that you came from the heavenly battlefield, right? Hehe, you are indeed very powerful. It’s a pity that you haven’t matured yet. Today, you will definitely die!”
Anthony’s expression became increasingly malevolent.
He had always been able to kill whoever he wanted.
This had been especially so in the past few years. He held a high position and often tortured and killed commoners and some aristocrats. In short, anyone who did not listen to him would be mercilessly executed by him.
He was already used to being a hunter. He even enjoyed it very much as he watched those people panic and be at a loss before they died.
“This illusion of yours can’t trap me. I didn’t expect those old fellows from the heavenly battlefield to be so generous. They actually taught you all the time and illusion runes.”
Anthony subconsciously thought that these old fellows from the heavenly battlefield taught Lugh because these runes were extremely powerful and rare, especially the time runes. In the entire rune world, only a few of them appeared every thousand years.
They weren’t that easy to condense.
“Unfortunately, it’s useless. Your runic strength is too low, and your attack methods are too simple. You can even say that they’re extremely messy. You’ve simply wasted these powerful runes. After I kill you, these runes will all be mine.
“Everyone listen up. Help me kill this thief outside.”
Anthony thought he still had his soldiers waiting for him.
However, he didn’t know that these soldiers had already been killed by Lugh in the first round of the reinforced knife rain.
Their bodies were cold.
Each and every one of them were nailed to the ground by the reinforced bar.

Even the monsters that they had set off had been poked into sieves. They couldn’t be any more dead.
What Anthony saw had just been an illusion.
Lugh once again condensed a clone.
“Is this because of Vivienne’s sarcastic remark? Is there a need to make such a big commotion?
“To think that even you, the first Prince of the Simon Empire, would not hesitate to run hundreds of miles to chase and kill her. There’s really something wrong with all of you.”
Lugh was really quite speechless.
If it was to chase and kill him, it was understandable. After all, he had killed Berg. He had also broken into the queen’s vault and robbed all of her treasures.
But if it was because of Vivienne’s previous complaints about the Simon Empire, sending so many people to chase and kill her, and even slapping a prince out, it really made Lugh feel that there was something wrong with him.
The royal family of the Simon Empire was not only rotten, but there was also something wrong with their brains.
A good empire did not manage, did not think of ways to improve the lives of its people.
Instead, they spent their efforts on dealing with people who had some opinions about the empire, thinking of exploiting and slaughtering civilians all day long…
This country was really the strangest empire that Lugh had ever seen.
There were clearly so many fertile lands, vast fields, and so many people to govern. They could use these to develop a strong country, so that civilians, nobles, and the royal family could all live better lives.
Yet, the royal family of this country did not follow the normal path.
Unless the queen had found out that he had ransacked the vault. After all, the loss of the vault was too great. It contained the wealth and treasures that the queen had plundered for so many years.
But she deserved it. She was the demon queen.
She had caused such disaster to the good country.
It was also good to slap Anthony. He was a living target.
It just so happened to let Lugh vent his anger towards the Simon Empire’s royal family.
It could also temper Lugh’s rune control ability.
“Kill!”
Anthony seemed to have gone crazy.
He constantly used all sorts of methods and runes. Although he was unable to break Lugh’s illusion, it allowed Lugh to slowly understand the limits of his runes and their various abilities.
Lugh didn’t actually have to do anything. Just by relying on the illusion runes, he could slowly wear down Anthony to his death.
Although Anthony’s holy shield runes were very powerful, as long as his spiritual power was exhausted, he wouldn’t be able to use the runes.
At that time, Anthony would only have a body. He would be like a lion without teeth.
He would just have to wait for death.
Anthony was the first person that Lugh had met since he transmigrated that could cause danger to his life.
Therefore, he attached great importance to Anthony. He had already planned all kinds of methods to deal with him.

Gateway
An archaeologist by the name of Søren Quinn wakes up elsewhere after boarding a plane for Iceland. Now he has to come to terms with a significant loss of recent memory and his apparent death and rebirth, provided he can survive the rigors of the Tutorial on Gateway Station and whatever waits for him after the Tutorial. Updates. When I can... sorry. Author's Note. Gateway is a portal/isekai style GameLit novel, but it has two main lead characters and will eventually have a small cast of minor lead characters to support them. There will be small elements of base building / kingdom management added as well over time, but they will not be the focus. Gateway really is a slow burn that takes some time to get going unfortunately, but I hope you find it's worth the wait. Thank you! p.s. Book One is finally done (only needed one more chapter unfortunately...) but I'm off hiatus now and will be starting on Book Two right away!

Contact Through Voided Lenses
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Edit: Fixed some inaccuracies in the synopsis. The void is a vast unexplored ocean filled with various wonders and dangers all waiting to be explored by those brave enough to travel and record. Many souls do find themselves brave enough to face the vast distances, the various risks to personal safety and do the hundreds of task required on a craft. However, at times the void itself can be boring with absolutely nothing to do but as time pass and more and better technology is reached, things got better. The various trips got faster, communications became faster than light and you can be home to see your loved ones after only months now. Through the various planets whether rocky or gaseous, the various stars whether small or giant, the various systems both eerily similar or completely alien. As part of an expeditionary scientific exploratory survey craft, one could see that the void offers no reprieve from all the discoveries and wonders. At times, it can feel empty and silent where no soul can hear you scream and at others it can be overwhelming with sudden phenomenon that can overwhelm the brightest of minds. The void itself is a truly fascinating ocean where one must chart the various islands or drown in its deadly tidal waves. But the question still remained no matter how you try to hide it in of itself… is there truly other intelligent life out there? Are we alone in this ocean? Those very questions still haunt the minds of those on the crafts themselves as they brace for every jump ready for the unknown and the known. Many would try to explain that yes there is other intelligent life out there whilst other still say no after 2 centuries of continuous flight out of the home system. Still, those are questions that bury deep in the minds of the crew and those at home as the voidcraft jumps to a system with a single yellow star orbited by 8 other planets with one crowning blue jewel being the 3rd closest with its 5 oceans and 7 continents, a planet called Dirt which is inhabited by a primitive species called Humanity. Hello, author here and this is my newest dive into writing particularly for the Writathon currently in progress being my first one. I hope you give me story a try but in case you still want more information on what you’re getting into, below are some pointers about the story itself. First Contact: CTVL is a story about a first contact scenario between an advanced alien civilization and a slightly more advanced modern day humanity on their planet called Dirt. Characters: The story will take place mainly on the perspective of the alien visitors themselves though there will be human POV characters who will show how the rest of humanity react through media and forums. Action: It won’t be an actual alien invasion but you have to see for yourself how well first contact went. Sci-Fi: I will be very forward here, I WILL bend the rules of physics in order to add in parts of the plot and there WILL be parts that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Theme: It will be a brooding story talking about the futility of pe… Just kidding, it’s mostly wholesome stuff to be honest here. Alien: The aliens themselves will… actually why should I tell you, you have to go and read it to find out what the aliens are though I will draw a few things here and there to aid in the process. Extra tidbit: If you are a grammar nazi or someone who really wants a realistic scifi story... this story is probably not for you at all. Anyways, that’s pretty much all I can say before I spoil something major of the plot itself, the story is slice of life so make sure that type of story is what you like because I am terrible with anything else as I found out, anyways, have a good time everyone and good luck to the other Writathon participants.
