Dukean was initially full of questions and curiosities, but when Neave started talking about the loop, he grew silent. The next few hours were spent with Neave recapping everything that had happened to him since he touched the hell tome.

Once he was back in the nightmare realm, he took a moment to focus and spotted a faint influence in the air. He turned to face the opposite direction of the cave and ran there at full speed.
He kept part of his focu...

Inside of the nightmare realm.
He cackled and laughed and got his little giggles out of the way. It was so funny to Neave.
Chaos was about to transpire in the nightmare realm. But there was one thing he had to check first. Neave put th...

He lifted him to his feet, pointed at him, and told Marven.
“Change of plans pops! He will take over the job of recruiting disciples!”
“Huh!?” Everyone yelled at once.

This man wasn’t an illusion.
He felt his mental state revert to normal as everything anchored to this stranger's existence. His incredulity overflowed and returned to normality, as the absurdity of the appearance of a god was so immense he knew not even insanity ...
2023-03-01 22:45:00 +0000 UTC View PostNeave found himself back in the nightmare realm. He finally settled for a real name for the place, even if he found it a little over the top. But it was fitting.
Especially now.
Neave didn’t know how time passed in this realm when he was awake. Did it pass at all? Surely it did. Whe...

And Gabrias was getting very good at it.
So much so that Neave cou...

Neave had the first thought for the last day. Exactly how he knew a day had passed was simple. This time, he did have a literal hourglass to check. And the last grain of sand had just rolled into the bottom chamber.
Ever since he left the loop, he hadn’t even onc...

Many vendors were bidding for snake cores, mainly because of how unique the powers inside were....
2023-02-24 22:45:01 +0000 UTC View PostNeave hadn’t shared much information with Dukean. Not quite yet. While the spirit oath had confirmed that he wasn’t an enemy or a schemer, that didn’t mean Neave would just tell him every secret he knew right from the start.
Even though he desperately wanted to.
