The blackness that he was in changed as text appeared in his vision.
Congratulations! You have successfully completed the Explosive Growth Trial.
Tom found he didn’t care. “Adam what happened to them?” he yelled out.
Apologies as per agreements tha...

AG. First of Two.
With the dragon spear in his hands, Tom jogged at the boss. The geography of the coming fight was simple. The entrance way the four of them had come through was just a gap in a waist height fence, well… shoulder height for them. A circular paddock...

They held their position for an hour while Tom recovered from skill exhaustion. It was not difficult as they only attacked one at a time with an average time between each assault of around four minutes. It was enough to restore himself, but barely.
In his nightly training sessions between h...

The others were not recovered from whatever the monster had done. They sat on the couch’s their heads in their hands for a few more minutes. They didn’t look miserable or anything like that, but more like they hadn’t fully woken up.
Kang eventually stirred, looked up groggily, ...

Tom took over thirty minutes to put himself back together. The entire time, with the exception of a small break in the middle to work on Briana, he focused on himself. His physical state was in a far worse condition than he had expected. The explosion that had propelled him through the air had do...

When he flipped the page, Tom was not at all surprised to see that he had received another child specific title.
He hadn’t been sure if the Fateful Reposition acquisition was going to upgrade his existing title or go into the new one. It seemed like the system ...

The petrification energy made the injury analogous to someone having received multiple stab wounds on earth. Once they were stitched up, you were unlikely to die, but it was still be a painful couple of weeks. In Briana’s case that day, one discomfort wo...

They continued their clearing activities and had hit the milestone of fifty percent of monsters killed, but they had not explored anywhere near that amount of floor space.
They were going through a tunnel to a fourth room when Danger

Kang only grimaced at his weak joke.
Tom regarded him with concern. The other man’s eyes had a permanent strained look to them and given what he was going though he didn’t blame him.
“Just have to keep going.” With a helpless shrug, Kang pulled off his tattered and broken armo...

The four of them gathered outside the closed doors. The chains that had once sealed it were long since gone, but it looked ominous. They were all dressed in their full armour, or at least what their rank and age could sustain. It was only a light mixed chain link and leather jerkin along with a h...

Over twenty minutes passed before the other three agreed that they were healthy enough to return. The long walk back to their living area was silent. It was clear the aftereffects of whatever mind stun that they had been inflicted with was significant and persistent. Their complaints aside, the t...

While waiting for his next free cast of Touch Heal to become available, Tom kept an eagle eye out for any monsters, but none turned up. Midway through he had felt the skill stress lesson enough to allow an extra cast of Power Strike so after that he hadn’t f...

They continued with their slow exploration of the myriad of tunnels, or at least their circle around the exit. The monsters they had quickly discovered were not all the same. They had either suffered some form of spooky convergent evolution or had originated from the same ecosystem. It was almost...

The two reincarnators spent every moment in a haze of frenetic activity. They understood the looming threat and knew the benefits of preparation. Every second moment was thrown into training. Teaching the girls was the simplest part of the day. An exercise in frustration for sure, they were six a...

They got to work with Kang taking the lead. The group exercises had the singular focus of training the girls to listen and be aware of their environment. Teaching them to react in the right way to stay alive was what every session was directed toward. There were three rooms that could be used for...

“What do you mean?” Eloise demanded immediately. “To use fate like a sledgehammer. That makes no sense.”
“He means,” Kang told her, “That we’re going to use our racial ability to help prepare us.”
Suddenly, a feeling of dread shot through Tom as he considered the nat...

AG. This is tomorrow's chapter brought forward. Ch 104 and 105 should really be a single chapter but it was getting way to long for that so I split it.

One moment he had been in the emptiness between Existentia and the trial, and then abruptly he was cast back to the familiar orphanage corridor. As far as he could tell, no time had passed. Kang remained a step behind him and Briana was ten metres in front of him and still running. Because he had...

Tom stood silently in his system room and struggled to get his bodily reactions under control. His mind was spinning in response to what had happened. A thousand different thoughts were all shooting off simultaneously, crowding his brain with their clamour.
Each of the thoughts flared, ofte...

A couple of things in my notes were excluded from the chapter by accident when I wrote it. I think I was rushing too much.
