"It feels good to be out of the city!" I exclaimed excitedly.
"I guess... I hope you packed me a lunch in your storage?" Vee questioned, her tone more playful than demanding, as she sat on my shoulder in her extremely shrunken form.

2024-11-29 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostTime flew by, relatively speaking. I was highly immersed in my experiments while offloading a lot of my magical training workload to my [Sub-Cores].
The bottleneck was definitely Vee's skill training, as she was rapidly gaining levels ...
2024-11-27 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostVee and I spent almost an entire week making periodic visits to the elemental dungeon. Surprisingly, the biggest hurdle was not the experience but her skill progression as she rocketed through the early levels of Mage, thanks to the pleth...
2024-11-25 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View Post"Okay, so how does this [Ritual Casting] work?" Vee asked.
"No idea! As I said, I've only ever done it with myself, but it should be rather intuitive."
Vee didn't look too pleased with that response, so I quickly asked her to cas...
2024-11-22 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostEntering the dungeon was bizarre. The entire thing felt far more clinical than I had ever expected. At first, the guards checked that I didn't have any controversial Emblem equipped and then had me reassure them I didn't have any looti...
2024-11-20 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View Post"So, is there any difference between this conquered dungeon and a normal one?" I asked.
Kaldrour nodded. "The spawns are more regulated, and in some cases, we've even ensured only certain types of elementals can spawn by changing the ...
2024-11-18 06:15:00 +0000 UTC View PostWhen it was time to go to bed, I noted that Thern was true to his word and set up a warding at his door. Even with Vee's friendly attitude and my reassurance, he seemed determined not to take any chances.
Vee took a spot in the corner of the ...
2024-11-15 06:15:00 +0000 UTC View Post"All done?" Jasgra asked politely.
"I think so; thank you for letting us use this room for so long," I replied.
"Not an issue," Jasgra said with a dismissive wave and a chuckle. "Now, what class did you pick out for litt...
2024-11-13 06:15:00 +0000 UTC View Post"Well... I guess welcome to Dhoggurum, Vee!" The scholarly dwarf said politely.
Vee nodded, which gave the dwarf much delight as she basically gave the dwarven equivalent of a happy squeal.
I guess she's a fan of monsters. I sup...

So yeah... I have my own published book now? Absolutely crazy! If you had told me when I started writing this story in December last year that it would be picked up and published, I would have laughed i...
2024-11-08 14:56:15 +0000 UTC View PostWe reached the gate without issue but were stopped when I attempted entry.
"Err... Miss, is that monster registered?" One of the guards asked, pointing to Vee sitting on my shoulder.
"Nope, I bonded with her while on my quest. I'm u...
2024-11-08 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostIt was surprisingly easy to chat with Vee. Our struggles as relatively weak monsters and discussing our various troubles at the start were an almost instant bonding experience.
Although I'd argue my start was a lot harsher, I'd started ...
2024-11-06 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View Post"Well... To be honest, you didn't really damage me," I admitted.
The spider stared at me long and hard. The turmoil going through her head was evident even without [Telepathy].
"I decapitated you," she responded. 2024-11-04 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View Post
"Okay..." I said with a nod. "So I guess she wants me to help you with magic because you've got [Dimension Magic], and she is the goddess of magic."
"She's the goddess of magic and chose to put me into a spide...
2024-11-02 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostDamn... She really got me there. I don't think there's any monster that I could say willingly killed itself. I mean... I could argue that the monsters were idiots for throwing themselves at me. But t...
2024-11-01 06:15:00 +0000 UTC View PostI cut off her head! Why is she still alive!? The spider frantically panicked.
She stepped in and felt whatever was leaking onto the floor, burning the tips of her paws.
And n...
2024-10-30 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostFinally, I was face to face with the spider I had been hunting for so long. It had finally screwed up and revealed its hidden network of webs running along the ceiling when it tried to use them to attack me.
[Tremor Sense] had pic...
2024-10-28 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostBut first, I need to find that spider... If it even is a spider anymore? Honestly, it's starting to feel like it has evolved into a ghost, with how I've not even caught sight of the damned thing.
I paused, realized the possibility, a...
2024-10-25 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostWith [Shatterquake], I smashed through the wall the enemy geomancer had cast, clearing the path to the mine. I left the remaining roadblock intact for safety and deterrence, a silent warning to unwelcome visitors.
Alright, take ...
2024-10-23 06:15:00 +0000 UTC View PostI had several notifications to look through but had more pressing concerns. I threw up another wall with [Rampart] to reblock the passageway and gain relative safety and privacy.
Right. Time to eat up and get that dwarf profile!...
2024-10-21 06:15:00 +0000 UTC View PostDespite the dramatic explosion, the dwarf was still barely alive. I had expected a kill notification, but it appeared that [Taunt] reduced my damage a lot more than I realized.
Which means I need to defeat the mirror knight first. 2024-10-18 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View Post
Walking towards the gate, I looked for the potential contacts. I wondered if they would perhaps not approach me since I was a supposed elf, or was their greed enough to ignore that?
It didn't take too long for a rather posh-looking dwarf to i...
2024-10-16 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostI was heading towards the Adventurer Guild that morning to meet with Darmod's friend, Kaldrour Flintheart. I had yet to interact with any dwarven nobles, so I wondered how their demeanor would differ from the human ones. But if he was friends with Da...
2024-10-14 06:15:00 +0000 UTC View PostBy the time we finally escaped the tunnel, everyone was extremely tired and grumpy. Well... Except for me, I felt pretty good, all things considered, the benefits of being a slime.
Since there were so many of us, fresh air apparently became an ...
2024-10-11 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostThern began collecting all the rock balls I had made for him and placing his glyphs on them individually. Once they were ready, he would put them in a small storage pouch he had that was rapidly accessible.

Hi all!
Lunadea here! I've got a bunch of announcements.
Our beloved Syl has wandered all over Royal Road and will soon be wandering over to Amazon to explore what's going on there! Unfortunately, that does mean the story is going to get stubbed, as KU pays so much, and I enjoy things...
2024-10-05 14:21:11 +0000 UTC View PostA plan was being put together by the three dwarves, and I left them to continue their work. I really didn't want to get involved with money and negotiations, so I felt like delegating the task to them was more than appropriate. Da...
2024-10-04 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View Post"What?" I questioned the two dwarves.
Thern tried to say something, but it just came out as a splutter of coughing.
"Did you say obsidianite?" Darmod asked in an almost hushed tone.
"Yes. I got some from a worm I killed." I answe...
2024-10-02 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostWhen I finally reached the tempered worm, I wasted no time diving into a presumably delightful meal. I had tried to dig in like any of my previous meals, but even with my [Acid Slime], I had some issues with the worm. If anything, it seemed sturd...
