      Chapter 50, Under the Sun Cover
      by Gills Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon After breakfast, Mirieh invited Amon out with great enthusiasm and asked Fossah to accompany him once again. She gave a considerable sum of money to Fossah and said to Amon, “You’re too kind to have bought so many things for us. If you need anything, please just tell Fossah and she will buy it for you.” Fossah clung to his arm tightly and smiled, “The capital is larger than you think. Many gardens are actually open to commoners. There are…

      Chapter 49, Eyes in the Dark Cover
      by Gills Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon “He’s Metatro’s friend," Mirieh replied coldly. "Metatro informed me to let him stay at the house and treat him well when he comes to visit. Metatro he has been away for far too long. I’ve been running out of money… I have to turn to you. What makes you come so late?” “Business is bad these days. I just laid in a new stock of goods and I’m strapped for cash too. I come to you as soon as I start to sell my goods and get my…

      Chapter 48, Devil’s Temptation Cover
      by Gills Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon Intriguingly, Amon found something in common between the strings and the Aquaticores. Certainly, they couldn’t be used as parangons, but Amon guessed that once processed into whips or bowstrings, they could enhance the power of water magics. They could be extremely useful in a naval battle. Amon decided to study the string in his bag more carefully once he settled down in the capital city. Perhaps it could be processed into his first artefact.…

      Chapter 47, Paid and Gained Cover
      by Gills Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon   The two brothers couldn’t be blamed for they were too young at the time. Not long after the priest’s death, their grandfather passed away too. The family didn’t lose their nobility, but the family title was obliterated. They were not much different from a common but wealthy family, except that they didn’t need to pay the taxes that commoners did. Theoretically, the two brothers were allowed to practice magic. But as the power of…
    • Chapter 46, Hevel And Qayin

      Chapter 46, Hevel And Qayin Cover
      by Gills <<Previous Chapter Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon Thinking back on the conversation between Inanna and Gilgamesh yesterday, Amon realised that there was more hidden information on the deities in it. From what he understood, the relations between Marduc and Enlil didn’t appear to be peaceful. Humbaba, as the gatekeeper of Enlil’s realm, hoped to have his own shrine built in Uruk so as to enable himself to own a realm too, however, he was refused by Gilgamesh. What was a…
    • Chapter 45, Gilgamesh

      Chapter 45, Gilgamesh Cover
      by Gills Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon Inanna spoke as if she was afraid, but her face didn’t show a hint of fear. Instead, she watched Amon, interested, with the shadow of a smile. Amon wrung his neck, “Why would I do that? It’s not a bad thing to save the lives of an entire crew! Inanna, can you tell me who exactly was the herdsman outside Som? You seem to know this lash is made from the string of the monster in the river. Why didn’t you remind me? Were you also aware that…
    • Chapter 44, Everyone Has Their Own Secrets

      Chapter 44, Everyone Has Their Own Secrets Cover
      by Gills Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon   Why was Amon travelling in disguise? Why hadn’t he revealed that he could use magic? Because he wasn’t a mage, he was a sorcerer! The ferry owner’s question drew the crowd’s curiosity. Amon had to reply, “I’m on an important mission that involves the secrets of the gods. So I have to travel in disguise. Please don’t ask me anything about this or tell others about what you’ve heard and seen today!” Oh, so he was a…
    • Chapter 43, A Song of Ice and Fire

      Chapter 43, A Song of Ice and Fire Cover
      by Gills Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon The immediate life-threatening danger preceded his mind from having other thoughts. Instead of worrying about his sorcerer identity, what mattered now was to save his own life. The ice shield formed by water magic was, unfortunately, not very effective. It was not even widely acknowledged as defensive magic. But water magic was the first magic that Amon had learnt and could cast without a thought. Besides, he was in the middle of a river. Water was…
    • Chapter 42, Where Is the Devil?

      Chapter 42, Where Is the Devil? Cover
      by Gills Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon It was unlikely that Amon could be adept at all types of magic as well as a master artificer and a formation expert. But it would be very useful for him to have a full understanding of them, at the very least. Crazy’Ole was not sure if Amon could find Bair, but what he had hoped for was that Amon could solve the secret of the gods, so the more he knew, the better his chances. Crazy’Ole had also invested tremendously in Amon’s staff, making…

      Chapter 41, A Divine Wager Cover
      by Gills Translator: Snorri Proofreader: theunfetteredsalmon   Inanna leaned her voluptuous and tender body onto Amon and whispered in her mellow voice, “I’m not scared, with such a strong and handsome hunter by me… But why did you choose to let them go? They tried to kill you. They don’t deserve your mercy. An enemy pardoned is still an enemy.” Amon thought for a second and answered, “I’m not interested in killing, and I don’t think there is any worth in doing it. They are not my…
