These assoles have been chasing me for weeks. No matter how much i try to lose them they always find me. I just left the last frontier town and started heading into the unexplored zone. The monsters there are so strong that only hero’s could slay them. There skin is tough as endurium. And claws and teeth is sharp as evolitium. Or so the rumors state(cough cough shitty ore names are shitty).
But i have a secret weapon, since birth my tribe of demi-humans were the most skilled at detecting presences or more accurately detecting mana from living creatures. This alone made us have value targets for slavery. If Only we didn't I this god forsaken hair color.It gives away my identity right away.
Ive had the worst luck my whole life. Since are tribe is nomadic tribe and moves from forest to forest in the north I just had to be the only child left behind. From then on its been mistake from mistake but i still walked forwards for 16 years. And i was doing fine till i met these assholes. In broad daylight they tried to capture me as a slave. I mean in broad daylight! I was buying traveling supplies when they tried to sneak up behind me. What makes it worst is they have a licenses to collect slaves that are not affiliated with any schools or guilds so in other words travelers. They chased my out of the last three towns and the only way im going to loses these guys if i take a big risk. I mean they can't be stupid enough to follow me into “that” forest. I mean no ones came out alive from there its a no go for even the bravest of heroes.
As i enter the tree line i got hit with the feeling of someones watching me then it stopped. It was creepy but i dont have time to dwell on the little things i must lose these guys in the forest.
I turned around to see if they were following and they were complete dicks cant they just leave a girl alone. As a ran deeper and deeper into the forest i had not encountered a single monster which i would count as a stroke of bad luck. But when i detect life with my skill it felt like they were running away and blocking any path i other way i could go other than straight.
They have been chasing me for a hour in this bloody forest are these guys insane. Im almost of of energy and i dont know how long i can keep running like this. Thinking this was the end i approached a small clearing that was on a small hill. Only giving a quick glance around i thought this would be the perfect place to hold a last stand and i ran to the top of the hill and faced were my enemies would come out from.

Once the broke through the thick tree line all 10 of them didnt even try to flank me. Im half wondering if these guys even have a brain. Standing there like a bunch of idiots with the biggest grin on there face thinking they had me cornered. Well you know the saying never corner a animal.
Then i saw something strange, They all suddenly cramped up in fear. Hell im not to sure but im positive one even pissed his pants. I started to panic, Could i have missed something with my detection skills. I looked frantically around me and my eyes landed on the most beautifully sword i have ever seen. The sheath for the sword was black with gold engravings near its mouth. they main body was pure black and i could faintly see magically engravings on sheath. They were so well placed that they could be mistaken for simple design.The handle sticking out of the sheath had black cloth wrapped around it forming diamond shaped patterns on it. And at the end was a similar god cap. The whole sword had a slight curve to it unlike any i have ever seen. If the sheath is this beautifully i wonder what the sword looks like.
The first thought that came to my mind was (what is this reference to) Its a trap!!! But if im going down fighting might as well do it looking cool. So i grabbed the sheath directly below the hande and when i started to lift it out of the stone. Wisdom text popped up in front of me.
Do you wish to bind the sword “unnamed” to you claiming it as yoursYESNO
I dont have time to read this and i just hit the yes button At that moment i felt a surge of energy my strength and stamina were coming back. And although i'm not certain i feel more energized blood stopped pouring out of my wounds.
While i was distracted in thought one of the men rushed me with his sword held high. I panicked i need to draw the sword as fast as i can to defend myself.Once the tip of the sword left the sheath a slash of air came out knocking the approaching enemy back and cutting his sword. It was shocking,How could i do that i dont even have a wind affinity. Then it hit me,It had to be the sword. The only thing that i could think of was that this sword was enchanted with wind magic. And it feels like i got 3 more slashes of that air attack.
Once i focused on the enemy's again they conveniently started to attack after picking up their friend 3 enemies were approaching slowly. 2 with a sword and 1 with a dagger. Im seriously wondering if these guys have a brain there lined up next to each other almost shoulder to shoulder. Dont they learn anything i just used a magic attack that's like a wave you would think it would be smart to split up a little.

I decide to deal with them before they gained a brain. i slashed down at a angle with all my might and another air attack came of the blade this time it sent them flying and upon hitting the ground knocked them out.Before the others had any time to act i wildly swung my sword to fire of the last the air slashes and like with the other three sent them flying and knocking them out.
After about 15 minutes of tying people to a tree i can guess that the monsters dont come in the clearing seeing as how there aren't even any bugs. So i decide to take the risk and sleep on top of the hill. I hadn't had a good days sleep in weeks and i deserve one with the sword still in my hand i went to sleep.
I woke up to what i assume would be the next morning and stretched totally forgetting why im here and theirs a sword in my hand i panic and tossed it but the moment it hit the ground it reappeared in my hand. I was shocked in all my knowledge ive never heard of a sword that did that. So i decided to inspecting it with the wisdom boxes proved by are goddess of wisdom. I was shocked at what i saw

-clairvoyance allows owner to expand mana perception and can show directions at random thru mana.The type of sword is Called a Katana. It focus on slashes. The method to make this type of sword was lost ages ago and is now a relic of the past.this sword was forged to be the perfect sword.Its beauty and simplicity of the blade give a almost divine feel. The craftsmen of this sword died a long time ago but for some strange reason he didn't want the swords owner to be in the hands of a man. That craftsman remains unknown, and didn't even give a proper name to it wanting the owner to name the sword.
I Wanted to also check the sheath because i felt something special about it as well but you can only use the wisdom boxes once a day so ill have to wait till later to check it out, But this sword is to powerfully seriously. If it wouldn't teleport to my hand constantly i would have left it. When looking over the stat’s on the sword there were a lot of them blanked out does that mean i have to discovery there affects myself. I still didn't see that one attack i did with the wind so the only logical explanation was that is was on the sheath.
Seriously who enchants their weapon so much that they even put it on the sheath. Shesh what a was. Well it wouldn't be smart for me to stay here so i start getting ready to leave.But first i need to find a way to activate the swords ability before i leave. i thought for a moment maybe there voice activated? lets try that clairvoyance skill.
[clairvoyance]
i Spoke and right after finishing the sentence i felt my perception expanding A LOT. I can see all living things with mana throughout the whole forest! Why would a sword even need such a skill. I need to find a way to deactivating it. I might as well just start saying words mean stop. Well.Well lets try the first word plan aand simple
[stop.]
And that was ll that was need the spell stopped. Amazing now to get out of this forest im going to need to activate that intimidating aura skill.hmmmmm lets try naming the skill again.
[intimidating aura]
nothing happened? did it not work.After thinking it over i decided to activate my personally mana perception spell to see if theirs any life near by and to my shock except for the past out idiots there was none. not even a insect. I guess it doesn't affect me.
After playing around with all the other abilities like taking mana from the sword and OMG did if have a lot more then i have ever seen. Even more then the weapons heroes use. i also tried swinging my sword around to activate that wind slash it didnt work ill mess around with it once i leave the forest for now ill activate the “intimidating aura” skill and since those idiots are still unconscious ill just cut the rope and let them get out of here on there own. I also took all the money they had on them seeing has how they owe me something for wasting so much time. Got and i was going to be late to begin with i there not to mad at me.
And with that i began to leave the forest.I need to think of a interesting name for the sword hmm, Ill work on a name for the sword on the way into town.

Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)
