Chapter 316: Blast from the Past

Marcus, the Viceroy of Ghost Reef and chief diplomat of the Lighthouse, stared at the peculiar flock of pink flamingos. He was perpetually astonished by their presence. The kitschy plastic lawn ornaments were the last choice of decor he would have predicted for such an important gathering, but th...

Chapter 315: Hovering and Hiking

It turned out that Coop’s travel speed was quite a bit higher than that of the Avatar of the System. She couldn’t keep up with his ability to completely bypass obstacles, combined with the fact that he consumed no resources while flickering across the landscape.

Coop’s abil...

Chapter 314: Hungry Hungry Humans

Coop shook the water from his hair, then wiped off his shoulders and flicked his hands dry before he began his approach toward the Avatar of the System and her worm-like companion. Even he would put a bit of effort into his appearance when it came to the Avatar, though in his case, that just mean...

Chapter 313: Depths of Madness

Coop used both hands to cup some river water and soak his face, but his hands lingered just a bit longer than necessary. Both palms gingerly rested against his cheeks, covering his eyes with his fingers as droplets fell down. He wasn’t sobbing, but he certainly felt like he should.

Chapter 312: One with the Abyss

Coop fell to his hands and knees, crying out in agony as pulsating tendrils threatened to rip out of his bruised skin from the inside. Through his blurry vision, he watched in horror as prehensile stems bulged beneath the surface, creating ripples that flowed across his forearms, surging and twis...

Chapter 311: Fatal Reckoning

Coop firmly planted his left foot, generated torque through his hips, and braced his right arm as it supported his spear. His jaw was clenched tight as he incorporated every muscle in pushing his weapon forward, not wanting to leave any doubt about his own limits when compared to his target. The ...

Chapter 310: Reckless

Coop took his place back on the hazy beach, alone with nothing but his shield, spear, and ethereal armor. He kept his eyes on the rippling rift as it hovered just above the surface of the water, off in the distance. The flat plane of light was steadily growing brighter while bursts of white spark...

Chapter 309: Edge of the Abyss

One hundred and one warriors fought on the broad coastline of the Mississippi Sea, kicking up gritty dirt with powerful lunges and calculated cooperative defenses. They were swarmed by black glass covered enemies that were twice as tall, with limbs twice as long, who sought to abuse their stealth...

Chapter 308: Breaking Barriers

Rows of spectral gladiators slammed into the beach, one after the other, their greaves driving into the ground as a prelude to their formidable presence. They were solid manifestations that had come to this plane of reality at the beckoning of the Mistwalker himself, forming a bulwark of resistan...

Chapter 307: The Omega

Coop stood on the dark colored beach beneath an even darker sky, his stance a picture perfect depiction of defiance. It wasn’t an ideal location to be caught standing, as he was completely exposed to the elements, but he didn’t shy away from the uncertain situation.

He squint...

Chapter 306: The Hunter

Could the manifestations of Primal Constructs experience fear? It was a question that Coop couldn’t definitively answer on his own, though he was pretty confident the answer was no.

Based on all of his time in the assimilation, he was comfortable accepting that minions were eff...

Chapter 305: The Hunted

As the daytime temperature faded, a light ground fog further coalesced within the forest. An even coat of vapor radiated from the earth. It was far more noticeable than the light wisps of spectral energy that constantly trailed the Mistwalker, but the two combined to add a haunting feeling to the...

Chapter 304: Needle in a Haystack

A once serene sanctuary of towering pines, flowing rivers, and rocky outcroppings had been transformed into a chilling, unpleasant domain. Winding trails weaved between jutting boulders, overlooked shallow, stone-filled creeks, and were criss-crossed with moss-covered fallen logs. They were untou...

Chapter 303: Layovers

Jones helped Coop aim the tip of his ethereal spear toward where they believed Empress City should be located relative to their shared position. The pair stood together atop the modified northern outer wall of Ghost Reef, at the highest point of the fort, above where the bat colony had relocated....

Chapter 302: Sweet Dreams

The serene harmonies of gentle winds flowing off the sea soothed Coop down to his core. Outstretched palm fronds swayed in the light ocean breeze, reacting to oscillations in the ephemeral currents, and bathed the island with a musical salve that fully immersed his mind in tranquility.

Just a little bit longer!

I'll be posting chapters again starting on Wednesday of next week (Nov. 6th).

My little break from posting was a mixed bag, I guess, lol. I am once again feeling mostly better after aggravating my injury and wasting another 8 days re-recovering in bed. I...

Chapter 301: Forgiveness

Hai Yun squeezed her eyes shut, ignoring the sounds around her. She sat on her knees with her head down, completely depleted, unable even to weep. The burdens of leadership had already exhausted her emotions. The lives she had become responsible for would be lost, but in the end, that’s what th...

Chapter 300: The Underking

Somewhere in the Underlayer, in the company of an unweathered stone pillar, half a dozen arguments welled up from a group of despairing individuals. The column stood like a silent witness, roughly the width and length of a football stadium while they debated amongst themselves. The pillar, with i...

Chapter 299: New High Score

With no more enemies remaining in the Underlayer, Coop flopped to the ground and laid on his back in the middle of the transitioning control point. He released himself from the Inheritance of the Mists, bidding the Apparition of the Pillar of Heaven farewell, though with the way Coop was connecte...

Chapter 298: The Pillar of Heaven

Coop’s ethereal morning star smashed through a fortified Field Boss that skittered along the surface of the ground, using its many legs to navigate the battlefield with unsettling efficiency. It had surreptitiously crawled into range, using the cover provided by the parties of Elites to try and...

Chapter 297: Burdens

Coop watched as the army from Shinjuku Gardens begrudgingly vacated the Underlayer. Most realized that it wasn’t worth defying his order to leave and risking the consequences, having personally witnessed how easily he destroyed the Primal Constructs, but that didn’t stop them from stealing sp...

Chapter 296: Lord of the Abyss

Mists were coursing into the Underlayer and Coop flowed along with them. He practically danced through the billowing clouds, letting the rhythm of his strikes dictate his movement. The streaming motions added a transformative hint of elegance to the Revenant’s typical brawling.

Chapter 295: No Tea Party

Coop took a moment to admire the vast armies of Primal Constructs as they milled around their castle-like fortresses. The legions of invaders created a dramatic sprawl of gray metals. As they swarmed protectively around the final objectives, they established a stark contrast to the desert of dark...

[Status Update]

Hello again!

This last week I've been easing into my previous schedule. I'm hoping that next week I'll be back to normal, productivity-wise. If everything goes well, I'd expect the pause in chapters to last 3 weeks, starting after Chapter 301.

It seems like it'll be a while un...

Chapter 294: Turmoil in Gangcheon

Cho Sang-hoon was having trouble tamping down on his concerns as time went on. The turmoil in Gangcheon had been escalating for a long time, and to make matters worse, the Underlayer Event was a total disaster.

They barely made any progress beyond their initial probes on the Prim...

Chapter 293: Super

“Super” Siwarak Supitaya was doing his best to keep busy. He was resting after a set of 1,000 crunches, just laying in the endless dirt, watching his chest rise and fall as he caught his breath. His pair of shadow companions mirrored his actions at his side, despite being unreal manifestation...

Chapter 292: Inquisitor of the Deep

Coop thought that it was about time to wrap things up in the Underlayer. Sure, there were still officially three weeks remaining in the duration of the event, but the Primal Constructs simply weren’t up to the task of maintaining their invasion, and not just because of his personal growth. Seve...

Chapter 291: Sorceress of the Storm

Charlie’s eyes sparked with electricity as energy swirled through her. She had become the embodiment of the storm, hovering over the expectant battlefield: a conduit for storm mana. One hand gripped her staff while the other pinched her fingers against her thumb, holding back the first bite of ...

Chapter 290: Tea Party

Coop lifted the fanciest teacup he had ever seen toward his lips, uncomfortable with the delicate porcelain between his fingers. Compared to the sturdiness of his ethereal weapons it felt unnatural, like his hands weren't meant for gripping such a fragile item. He gently blew into the liquid, bef...

Chapter 289: Divine Messenger

“Champion of the Unchosen.” The person who approached Coop spoke. Their voice was calm and they waited until they drew close to speak, still completely hidden beneath their loose clothes.

The soft tone of the words revealed the first hint that the figure was a woman. Her robe...
