Chapter 217: 3v3
The earth user clenched his fists and growled. “What did you do to Gerald?”
“Oh, if you want him back, all you have to do is beat me.” Derek stepped forward. The second his foot touched the ground, spikes shot up from below him. They tore through the soles of ...

Derek moved quickly through the void, gradually getting more and more of a lead on Edgar. He was shocked at how fast the prince moved as lightning. Derek was still faster, though, even if he had to drink thousands, if not tens of thousands, of gold worth of potio...

“Ugh!” Edward grunted as a shadow protruded from his stomach and shoulders, severing both arms from his body and dropping his HP back to critical.
“Be still. Move again and I’ll end you.” The Shadow Witch said.
“End him now!” Gerald shouted. 2022-08-11 23:45:01 +0000 UTC View Post

Crown Restaurant—Savannah
Alanah stored her communications crystal in her storage ring and sighed. “That was Avery.” She looked pointedly at the King. “Edward has been ambushed and lost all of his men. He avoided the attack, but is c...

Of course, nothing could ever go as planned. Gerald was already standing, no worse for wear. There was something to be said about having 1500 point in Vitality. He may not be strong in a fight, but he could definitely take a beating. Other than the light damage to ...

Avery stepped forward, activating some skills in the process. His excitement was palpable when Alanah contacted him to keep an eye on the situation with Gerald Torith. He had hoped that the man would give him reason to step in. The man was an absolutely disgustin...

The group all ate and had pleasant conversation, much more pleasant than their introductions had been. Of course, Derek still wasn’t a fan of the King. Still, with such a spread made by the best chefs from the Crown, it was hard to not be happy.
Though the...

Three hooded figures walked out of a warehouse located in one of the city-sized villages outside of the Cydarian Capital. Left behind in the warehouse were two men. One stood tall in plate armor, lingering half a step behind the other.
The other was a middle-aged m...

The room went silent, though, other than the buzzing sound of electricity coming off of the King, there wasn’t much noise to begin with. The King only shifted his gaze from Derek to the recent addition to the gathering.

“Are you sure this is a good idea?” Stella rushed back and forth, making sure everything in the room was prepared for such company. They had decided to use the top, most private, floor in the Crown Restaurant to host such an evening.
“Oh, no.” A...

Derek still couldn’t quite wrap his head around the system and its stats. Maybe this system isn’t as stingy as I thought it was. He shook his head and inwardly sighed. It’s just something I’ll have to figure out for myself, just like Alanah says.<...

Derek smiled and sat, leaving his Void Storage open. Inside it were the over thirty Void Beasts he hunted, along with dozens of mana cores from the golems. "It is a good presentation, isn't it?"
“So, this is what you were doing while you were gone?” Stell...

Derek stood from the couch and openly gawked as Alanah walked out of her bedroom. Finally, he knew why the Crown chose emerald green as the primary color for its palette. The woman’s lush green hair flowed just down past her shoulders. Derek could just make out ...

Derek woke up the next morning after discussing multiple things with Brandi. The kid was going to grow to be a monster, that was for sure. He also wanted to find a way to help her separate her stats a bit, so she wouldn’t have to experience the pain of facing multiple b...

With Silvi on his shoulder, Derek headed downstairs to see what Brandi was up to. As soon as he opened the door to the basement, he could hear the clanging sound of metal on metal. Must be smithing, then. Sure enough, when he made it downstairs, he could see Bra...

Derek sat in the middle of the final area of the dungeon. He was finally finished. With his most recent run through the dungeon, he reached level 171. Finally, being past level 170, he would no longer be able to enter the dungeon.
He rubbed his temples. That wasn...

Edgar wiped the sweat off his brow as he sat in the empty dungeon. The last levels to 250 took way longer than he ever thought they would. It ticked him off that his brother was closer about how long it would take than he was. Though, Edward’s predictions...

Soon, Derek finished the boss area of the dungeon and stored the mana cores before leaving. Once outside, he checked his surroundings, making sure there was still no one around. After doing so, he reached out to open his Time Prison once again.
Chapter 199: Void Farm
The next Void Beast to come out was slightly above average. It seemed to be on the verge of intelligence, but was still a monster through and through. Derek wasn’t entirely sure about the Adventurer Guild rankings, as the only Onyx Ranked Adventurer he’d fought wa...

Derek pushed all the questions about his stats to the back of his mind. It was something he would have to talk to Alanah about later, and there was no sense dwelling on it when he still had things he needed to do.
One of those things, of course, was using Void C...
