《Night Ranger》Chapter 538. The Power of the Domain!
Advertisement
Marvin was currently in Stealth.
A mortal simply couldn't see through him unless they relied on very special abilities.
Because of Hathaway preoccupying him, even Lich Bandel didn't notice Marvin approaching, let alone the Jade Banshee and the Twin-Headed Bone Dragon.
But the cursed little girl was looking at him, blinking!
'It's not coincidental…' Marvin thought, feeling startled.
Bandel had mentioned that there was a treasure hidden in Molly's body... could this be related to her curse?
Regardless, he had to find a way to save her.
Watching such a young life dying in front of him wasn't Marvin's style.
But the Life and Death array already started, isolating it into a separate space.
If Marvin forcibly entered, there would be only one consequence: being crushed by the array!
Unless he had the strength of Gods.
...Hold on!
The strength of Gods!
An idea flashed in Marvin's mind.
The next second, he unhesitantly drew on the False Divine Vessel, using [Plant Metamorphosis]!
In the Divine Power Pool, 2 of the 15 Divine Power points were instantly consumed.
Some changes were visible on Marvin's body. Because he held it back somewhat, the tangible Domain didn't expose itself in front of everyone.
But the sensitive array felt it.
It was the Domain of the Wilderness God's avatar after all.
Many of the Lich's spells were inherited from the Wilderness God, so they both had something in common!
Marvin tried to approach the Life and Death array while Bandel was distracted.
He didn't rashly charge in. Instead, he probingly took a step into the array.
A heavy force washed over him!
But Marvin was actually pleasantly surprised!
This force wasn't rejecting him... It actually had an accommodating feeling.
The sensation was quite comfortable, like being a fish in the sea. Marvin quickly rushed in!
Everything happened quietly, and even Minsk didn't notice him manage to get in.
All he was looking at was the pitiful appearance of the small girl.
Molly almost couldn't stand.
She was bruised, her lips were purple, and she was shivering all over.
One, or maybe several, scary curses flared up on her body at the same time. The little girl was clenching her teeth, with blood seeping out of her dried lips!
"Ah…"
She let out a low sound.
Although that voice was very low, it attracted everyone's attention.
None of them were able to stop themselves from looking over.
She was kneeling on the ground, and her head suddenly jerked up!
It was a startling scene.
Some cobweb-like threads were forming on her pure white cheeks, and they kept spreading!

The most frightening things were the two lines of blood that started coming out of her eyes!
"I can't see!" Molly wept pitifully.
"Why can't I see anything?"
"Uncle Griffin! Where are you?"
Hathaway looked down coldly at that scene as she hovered in the sky.
Bandel frowned.
The ritual had already started, so if he wanted it to be successful, he would have to start making his move.
But this Witch's existence was a problem.
He needed to put all his strength into the ritual, or else his plan would fail!
And Hathaway clearly wouldn't give him such an opportunity.
She might not be able to hurt him, but she could still make him fail via indirect means.
This was something Bandel couldn't accept.
As for the matter of Molly's death, to be honest, even if Bandel had been a kindhearted youth, he had turned into a Lich long ago. His heart had already died after so many years.
It was just another gifted girl, a dead person was just a dead person.
It didn't actually matter to him whether he used this girl as a medium or not. He had already made enough preparations, after all.
...
Inside the array, Marvin clenched his teeth when he saw that scene and dashed over to Molly's side!
This suddenly revealed his whereabouts, because he was inside Bandel's array!
Because of Hathaway distracting him, Bandel hadn't noticed Marvin entering the Life and Death array.
But now that Marvin made a move, he was immediately detected!
"Damnit!"
"Who are you?!"
The Lich's soul fires were extremely bright as he roared, "How could you get in my array?"
There was a strange expression in Hathaway's eyes.
This was an array that mortals couldn't get into!
Because Life and Death were the Domains of Gods!
But Marvin was able to sneak in silently.
When she thought about it, it seemed that this man had always been able to do something unexpected.
...
Marvin rushed to Molly's side and helped her up.
"Don't be afraid, I'll get you out of here." His tone was sorrowful.
The curse flaring up on Molly's body was very troublesome. He didn't know how Griffin was suppressing it before.
Maybe only something like the Truth Scale could suppress her.
With her current situation, Marvin knew that even if he brought her to Mother of Creation, it would be hard to save her.
But regardless, he would bring her away.
Molly's body was very light. Marvin carried her and it felt as if he were carrying a ball of air.

Her body was cold and blood was still flowing down from her eyes.
"Is it you, Mister Marvin?"
"Did Uncle Griffin send you? It must be…" she mumbled.
Marvin bitterly looked at the girl in his embrace, letting out a grunt of acknowledgement, before starting to run toward the boundary of the array!
...
"You wish!" Bandel got angry.
'What is going on today!?'
'People keep coming out of nowhere, trying to disturb my plan!'
The Anzed Witch was one thing, that woman wasn't to be trifled with. She had six kinds of the Anzed's Highest Witchcraft Authority.
He had previously gotten a contract with a woman and obtained the 7th Witchcraft Authority, allowing him to use the Anzed Law to keep her in check.
'But what about this man in front of me?'
Bandel had a pretty good memory and recognized that this guy was one of the Legends he had previously captured in the Wilderness Hall.
'How could he be here?'
'Did something happen to the Wilderness Hall?'
That wasn't the point, though. This guy ignored him and openly tried to snatch his ritual's medium. This was something Bandel definitely couldn't forgive!
"Since you are courting death, die!"
The Lich's voice sounded extremely sinister.
Following his roar, changes started appearing in the array.
The negative energy flowed crazily and a cyan ivy started growing, rushing toward Marvin!
Hathaway and Minsk both felt concerned.
"Careful!" Hathaway couldn't help but shout.
This wasn't the Wilderness God's avatar, but rather, power coming from his main body!
It simply wasn't something Marvin could fight.
The Lich was still sneering.
In his eyes, Marvin was already screwed.
He only had one end, and that was to be absorbed by the array and turned into nourishment for the Death Vessel!
But something happened that shocked them all!
Just when the ivy pounced on Marvin, he let out a loud shout.
The formidable Domain he had drawn out was no longer restrained after being prompted by the advanced False Divine Vessel.
[Domain – Plant Metamorphosis]!
Full expansion!
When he felt this familiar aura and power, even Bandel fell into a daze.
This was the power of the Wilderness God!
'How could that kid have it…'
But he couldn't ponder about it right now, because with the power of the Domain flowing out, the situation had changed greatly!
All the cyan ivy surrendered and automatically opened up a path to speed up Marvin's retreat from the array!
Minsk's eyes were close to popping out of their sockets!
'Could this be the Wilderness God's main body?'
'Or an illegitimate child of the Wilderness God? No way, I never heard of the Wilderness God leaving any son behind, the women he captured were also eaten up…'
Minsk was in a daze.
But the array didn't attack Marvin and instead helped out; this was a fact.
Before anyone could react to the strange development, Marvin carried Molly out of the array.
"What the hell are you?!" The Lich's voice was extremely heavy.
"A mortal."
Marvin's answer was simple.
"Master, I recognize him!"
The Jade Banshee remembered Marvin and pointed out, "He was the Paladin's companion, the Legend Great Druid who broke through our blockade!"
The Two-Headed Bone Dragon let out a low roar, apparently expressing his agreement.
"Legend Great Druid?"
The Lich's soul fire flickered.
"Who you are doesn't matter!"
"You'll die today!"
"You two, kill him! Bring me back my medium!" Bandel ordered.
The Jade Banshee and the Two-Headed Bone Dragon immediately got ready to attack.
In their earlier encounter, they chose to retreat not because of Marvin, but because of Griffin's Truth Scale!
After losing the intimidating Truth Scale, there was no way that Claudy, the Two-Headed Dragon famous for terrorizing the Crimson Wasteland, would be afraid of a mere mortal.
Even if something seemed rather strange about that guy.
Marvin tightly held Molly as he faced the two of them calmly.
He only coldly warned them, "You should probably care about what's more important to you."
The three were startled by his words.
Then, everyone looked at what was happening inside the array!
At one of the point of the six-pointed star, a small silhouette flashed near the coffin.
Hathaway!
Bandel felt like falling apart!
'What the heck is happening today!'
'Why does it look like everyone is able to enter the array?'
'This is [Life and Death]! Any mortal would be crushed when entering!'
But he didn't have time to be complaining about it, as Hathaway was already reaching the coffin.
Her eyes were fixed on the Cold Light's Grasps!
"Stop!"
Bandel wasn't the only one who shouted. Minsk also yelled!
But Hathaway wouldn't listen to them.
"Lost things eventually make their way back to their owner."
"The Ashes Authority will finally shine."
"Return, my Night Flower."
"Thud! Thud!"
After Hathaway's soft voice drifted out, the two daggers automatically broke away from the coffin and fell into her hand.
A smile appeared on her face.
But the next second, a crazy laughter burst out and echoed through the Dungeon!
"No one… Can stop my resurrection…"
"Even the disciple I'm most proud of, Bandel!"

Delve
Summary – Level 1: Delve is an isekai litrpg that follows an average guy who just happened to wake up in a forest one day. He wasn’t summoned to defeat the demon lord or to save the world or anything like that, at least as far as he can tell. The only creature there to greet him was a regular old squirrel. Soon enough, he meets other people, only to discover that he can’t speak the language, and that not everybody immediately trusts random pajama-wearing strangers they met in the middle of the wilderness. Things generally go downhill from there, at least until the blue boxes start appearing. Delve is a story about finding your way in a new, strange, and dangerous world. It’s about avoiding death, figuring out what the heck is going on, and trying to make some friends along the way. It’s not about getting home, so much as finding a new one. Did I mention that there will be math? Summary – Level 2: Okay, but what are you in for, really? Well, this story is supposed to be realistic, or at least, as realistic as a fantasy litrpg can be. The main character doesn’t instantly become an all-powerful god and murder-hobo his way across the universe. Delve is, at its heart, a progression fantasy, but that progression is meant to feel earned. The numbers in this story actually mean something. Everything is calculated, and if you find a rounding error, I expect you to tell me about it. That said, if math isn’t your cup of tea, there is plenty more that the story has to offer. Characters are meant to feel real, and progression isn’t only about personal power; it’s also about allies, connections, and above all, knowledge. Figuring out how the system works is a significant theme. ... What, you want more details? Okay, fine, but this is going to get a bit spoiler-y. Are you sure? Yes! Really sure? I mean, this summary is practically half as long as the first chap– Now! Okay, okay! The main character becomes a magic user, but he takes a route that is not very popular in adventurer culture, namely that of a support. There is a full magic system with various spells, skills, and abilities, but our MC decides that aura magic is the way to go, and that the only stat worth investing in is mana regeneration. Most people at the Adventurer’s Guild think that this makes him a bit of a dumbass, but he’s playing the long game. We’ll see how that works out for him, won’t we? Because of his build, the MC levels up fast, at least compared to normal people. There are no cheats, though, and he is limited in other ways. There are some clear and pretty obvious downsides to his build. That’s what makes it fun, no? Morals? Our MC has them. Again, we’ll see how that works out for him. Realism, remember? Would you be okay with killing someone and looting their body? I sure hope not. POV? The focus is on the main character, but there will be occasional varying perspectives from people around him, or involved in the events related to the main plot. It isn’t going to jump all over the place. Tech is standard medieval stasis. No smartphones, but the MC does have a technical background. Computers and their programming might be involved. There might even be a bit of uplifting down the road, who knows? Anyway, it isn’t the focus. He isn’t going to invent the gun in chapter 1 and change the face of warfare. Romance is not a major focus. Friendships are more the name of the game, though there will be some characters in romantic relationships. There is exploration, though not as much of the geographical nature as you might expect. It is more about exploration of the system and the culture. The pace is slow and detailed, sometimes verging on slice-of-life. The action is meant to be realistic and grounded in the numbers, and it is intended to have meaning beyond simply punching things until they stop moving. The general tone of the story is grey, and some parts can get quite dark. People die. Sometimes, people with names, but not anywhere near GoT level. There is plenty of light, too, though, to balance the darkness. The world is dangerous, but overcoming that danger is why we’re all here, isn’t it? Anyway, if you’ve made it this far through the summary, you clearly like words. I hope you enjoy the story! Cover by Miha Brumec Summary Updated: 2020-06-14

The Skywalker Chronicles
Luke Skywalker wakes up nude in a new world after going to bed as usual. Adventure with him as he readily abandons his previous life and discovers all the wonders of this new world. This is my first attempt at writing that I actually posted anywhere. English is my first language but I pretty much suck at it. This novel will have sexual content but as someone who can’t stand reading those grocery store romance novels I will likely do as Robert Jorden and just say “they did it” and end it with a fade out scene. I lied, there will now be grocery store romance novels levels of sex scenes. I will however mark those chapters with “Eros”. Eros as in one of the Greek gods of love making. Feel free to skip those chapters and pretend that it was a fade out sex scene. And finally, this is not a Star Wars Fan Fiction. The origin of the MC’s name will be explained as the story progresses. Skywalker is just such an awesome name I couldn’t help it. Anyways, we all know Star Gate comes in first followed by Star Track and then Star Wars. I give no promises on release dates or time.
