After the initial panic from having the entire teleportation network destroyed, things in the many cities across Earth were pretty calm again for a while. Most didn’t even know why the attack had happened, and those who did quickly moved to apprehend those responsible or to calm the masses. The...
2022-08-12 09:52:14 +0000 UTC View PostFactions in the multiverse varied widely. Some factions integrated themselves nearly everywhere quite easily, such as the Court of Shadows. The Court of Shadows found themselves present even in territory and planets run by the Holy Church as long as they kept themselves covert. It was an unspoken...
2022-08-11 10:37:17 +0000 UTC View PostWings of the Malefic Viper was honestly a bit of a weird skill in Jake’s repertoire when Jake thought about it. Mainly in that he didn’t really need one of its primary functions anymore: the ability to fly. Jake could fly just using mana manipulation already.
This meant the skill now on...
2022-08-10 10:34:31 +0000 UTC View PostGetting a massive sandworm to eat you was actually way easier than Jake had expected. Not that Jake should have expected much from the get-go, it was a stupid expectation. All he had done was just land on the sand, get semi-close to a natural treasure while using Arcane Stealth, and boom, a worm ...
2022-08-09 10:27:40 +0000 UTC View PostDue to the suddenness of the attack, many of those behind it still remained within Haven. They believed they could simply lie low and hide, acting like normal citizens until their side came out on top. It had worked for a time… but only because Miranda had been distracted.
Every action ca...
2022-08-08 10:40:44 +0000 UTC View PostMiranda had been observing the battle from afar until suddenly, a huge magic circle appeared and blocked out her view. When it disappeared, Jake was gone, and she hurriedly contacted him with worry only to discover he had been put out of commission and was now somehow on the other side of the pla...
2022-08-05 10:36:40 +0000 UTC View PostJake had not really known Chris that well. He was just a guy Jake had saved by coincidence when he killed Abby and her father after they attacked Haven. Later on, he had then given the young man a Blessing from the Viper, and Chris made the monument to allow Jake to teleport out of their universe...
2022-08-04 10:43:04 +0000 UTC View PostJake had spent another month rapidly progressing since his shopping trip. The most monumental event was when Jake finally laid down the ritual circle framework for the Pollendust Bee Queen. He had prepared enough cores, and with some of the materials he had bought, could begin the initial stages....
2022-08-03 10:37:38 +0000 UTC View PostMeira was nervous after Lord Thayne left her alone. She had been shopping many times before, but never for herself. Wasn’t it just a waste of money to get her equipment? Currently, she only got a bit of Wisdom from her spatial necklace, with the rest of her items not even counting as equipment....
2022-08-02 10:38:03 +0000 UTC View PostJake had a confession. He had never actually been shopping with a girl before in his life. Well, besides with his mom, but that wasn’t really shopping together but more going shopping at the same place separately. Even when he had a girlfriend, it had never happened. Perhaps another in...
2022-08-01 11:01:43 +0000 UTC View PostThe last times Jake went shopping, he had either gone to the vampire place because he also wanted to sell stuff or went with Villy to get new clothes. All other shopping was done by Meira after that for a few reasons. First of all, it saved Jake time. Secondly, Meira was incredibly insistent on d...
2022-07-29 10:41:28 +0000 UTC View PostThe levels had come faster than Jake expected during this particular training session. Maybe it was because he was actually crafting a lot this time around, but it could also be due to him simply progressing in so many areas at the same time. Not that he had any way to truly find out, as the syst...
2022-07-28 10:38:13 +0000 UTC View PostSo, some good and some bad news. On the good side, Jake had now figured out how to put other people in a coma that they didn’t seem to wake up from by themselves even after three days. On the bad side, Jake had now put someone into a coma and didn’t really know a way to wake them up.

It was a wonderful contrast to her formerly smug and overly confident demeanor that made it clear she believed no one could touch her and nothing she...
2022-07-26 10:42:38 +0000 UTC View PostJake was no expert in friendships. He would never claim to be. But what he did know was that the scalekin called Nella was definitely not a friend of Meira. Now, while Jake did want to just barge in and raise hell, he chose to listen to Izil and acted with thought. At the very least, he should gi...
2022-07-25 10:36:40 +0000 UTC View PostJake had seen a more nervous than usual Meira off as she went to one of her classes. He knew it was because she wouldn’t be returning alone but had agreed to bring her friends along. It would be a lie if he said he didn’t find it endearing and waited expectantly as he also worked on his own p...
2022-07-22 10:36:09 +0000 UTC View PostIt ended up taking Reika another few hours to reach a point where she felt confident letting the three of them roam free. Draskil hadn’t really taken that much convincing when it came down to it, something Reika partially explained away by him also coming from the newly integrated universe.

2022-07-20 10:42:19 +0000 UTC View PostThis vision had definitely been on the shorter side, and compared to his last one where Villy got smacked around by Valdemar, it was also far less valuable. Then again, that vision had consumed two charges of the skill and allowed him to see two future Primordials duking it out with a focus on mo...
2022-07-19 10:41:29 +0000 UTC View PostEveryone knew by now that mushrooms sucked. No, they didn’t just suck; they went above sucking. Their level of suck was so high they were endless vacuums of suffering. One of the reasons mushrooms sucked so much was because of how they worked.

2022-07-18 10:28:27 +0000 UTC View PostJake sat down and relaxed while recuperating before moving on to the final optional boss. He felt pretty damn good about himself and, while he was sitting there, reflected on the progress he had made recently. Level-wise, he had gained one level in his profession during the period of nearly a mon...
2022-07-15 10:32:00 +0000 UTC View PostJake didn’t really know all that much about curses. But he did know a bit. He had the Root of Eternal Resentment in his Palate for a long-ass time, and it had housed a shitload of curse energy. Now, as for infusing that concept into a poison? Well, that was something entirely different.

2022-07-12 10:30:07 +0000 UTC View PostIt didn’t get better. Jake had hoped that the second floor would be less mushroomy, but it wasn’t to be. In fact, there were even more mushrooms, and some of them were even aggressive and attacked them. Mushroom Man Mages had also been added to the list of enemies, usually wandering with thei...
2022-07-11 10:29:58 +0000 UTC View PostJake had to question if it all was just one cruel joke that everyone but himself was in on. Had Villy put them up to his? Was he the one who had tipped off Draskil to choose this dungeon? Maybe influenced Irin? There had to be more to this than pure randomness. Because what Jake saw was just a he...
2022-07-08 10:29:20 +0000 UTC View PostIrin took the lead as she led Jake and the others toward the location of the dungeon. It wasn’t as simple as Jake had thought it would be to get there. He had kind of just assumed it would just be another gate, and then boom, they would be teleported straight in front of it.
However, real...
