Chapter 42

The late afternoon sun cast a golden glow on everything that made the scenes outside the carriage truly something worth to be seen. At this moment, Anton almost expected Robin Hood to come out and ask them to join their band of merry men or for the unicorn from the animated film The Last Unicorn ...

Chapter 41

Anton was woken up by Anna and when he checked the time it was three in the morning. He slept around nine in the evening so that meant that he slept over six hours. He decided he would give his father more time to sleep and wake his family up at around seven in the morning.

In the meantime,...

Chapter 40

Everyone was admiring Anders’s sword which looked newly forged. Then suddenly it seemed like a thought came into Anton’s father’s mind.

“Anton that meant that you could repair all the weapons and armor that we took from that village that was destroyed by the Lycans. If we sell those...

Chapter 39

“Your voice is really beautiful son. Anna is right. If all else fails, you can still work as a bard or at the very least a minstrel and you would still be rich.”

Anton heard his father’s comment from the driver’s seat which made him a bit proud. For some reason, praise from other pe...

Chapter 38

Anton thought that it was useless to expound on the other characters’ powers in the Diablo II game to his Father and sister given that the game clearly stated that once he had chosen a character he would not have a chance to choose a new one or switch to a new one but he thought that they were ...

Chapter 37

Anton’s father prepared the carriage that they would be using in traveling to the city starting then. He had to admit that the carriage would be more convenient than the cart since they would have cover in case it rained and Anders warned them that rain was likely due to the season.

“Th...

Chapter 35

The men and women who were looking at them were strange in Anton’s eyes. They were all looking at Anton and his family as if they were fat juicy steaks and that they had been hungry for several days.

Anders whispered to his children to move slowly to the side away from the inn’s door an...

Chapter 34

Anton returned to the camp and Anders was surprised to see his son freshly washed.

“Did you take a bath somewhere in the forest? Did you find a river or something?”

“No, Father. We have a bucket and a dipper in my magical space and I filled it with water from a spell and then us...

Chapter 33

Anton was elated with the Prayer Aura. Not only will it help with their survival, but it could also even help them earn coins from sick rich people. One fantastic advantage that the aura had given him was the ability to add people to a party system. Since he already added his Father, sister, and ...

Chapter 32

Anton played a couple more classical pieces then he switched to old seventies and eighties rock music. He didn’t sing since they were still on the road but kept it instrumental. He was surprised and impressed at himself for not making too many mistakes since he hadn’t played for years. More t...

Chapter 31

After playing the song Pachelbel Canon in D, Anton stopped and kept the lute in his private stash. He stopped not because he was tired of playing. He stopped because his emotions were getting overwhelmed from the memories of his parents and he needed to be focused on the surroundings not sobbing ...

Chapter 30

Anders arrived back in the inn’s room after about an hour and Anton only managed to pen the two stories, The Little Match Girl, and The Ugly Duckling in Anna’s notebook. Their father was carrying two huge baggage.

“Anton put this in your magic space and there are two more in the cart....

Chapter 29

The next day Anders woke Anton and Anna from their sleep and told them that they needed to leave early. Breakfast was already waiting for them and Anton wondered how early the inn folks wake up to have breakfast ready at this hour since when he checked the time in his browser, it said that it was...

Chapter 28

Lunchtime arrived and Anton’s father still didn’t stop the cart. Anders asked them to eat lunch while they were still moving. There was still tension amongst his family and honestly, instead of worrying Anton, it brought a tinge of excitement. He wondered what loot they received from the vamp...

Chapter 27

Anton and his family were traveling on the road from the last camp and they were about three or four hours away. Anders didn’t stop even for breakfast. They ate while moving. It’s as if their father were afraid that somebody was chasing them which could be true since Anton killed a total of f...

Chapter 26

Anton and his family started their hunt early in the morning and it was supposed to last for the whole day but they had to stop due to the presence of the ghouls and the possibility that there could be more, so they moved from the camp.

It was around lunchtime when Anders drove the cart out...

Chapter 25

Anton, his father Anders, and his sister Anna went inside the forest after they made sure that the cart and the horses were not visible from the road and were hidden under a tree. They also made sure that the campfire was out to prevent any accidents.

While Anton’s family was walking, And...

Chapter 24

Anton, his father Anders, and his sister Anna settled down surrounding the campfire. They sat on the tree trunks near the fire after they set up their tents while the meat was roasting in the fire tended by Anders. He pulled up the page so he could read the exact story from a site.

“My st...

Chapter 23

Anton and his family went back to their cart to continue their travels.

“Brother, that new spell Glacial Spike, why do you call the ice that you summoned, shards when it looked like just a bigger version of your Ice Bolt?” Anna asked.

“Well, the actual description was a spike of...

Chapter 22

Based on his father's statements, there were no dungeons as Anton knew them in this world. Anders told him that there were places like ancient labyrinths, ruins, and places with monsters and they only gathered there because of the lack of humans in the area. Like animals, they used those places t...

Chapter 21

Anton and Anna went to their tents to sleep but he planned to play Diablo II for about an hour for leveling purposes and then practice his spell casting and mana manipulation of some of his spells for also an hour then go to sleep since he would need rest. He wondered if stamina potions would ass...

Chapter 20

After dinner, Anna turned to Anton and asked him something.

“Brother, before we go to sleep can you tell us another story?” She then looked at their father as if asking for permission.

When Anders nodded which was a signal that he would allow it and in all honesty, Anton could see...

Chapter 19

Anton asked his father what time it was and was told by Anders that it was already five in the afternoon. His father also mentioned that they should arrive at the next village at around seven in the evening.

While they were moving forward, they heard a huge commotion in the forest to their ...

Chapter 18

Anton asked his father a lot of questions regarding the lives of the common people in the places where he’d been. He learned that the lives of the people were hard. Because of monsters, bandits, and the undead, a common village had the chance of suddenly disappearing from the face of the earth....

Chapter 17

The sun was already peeking from the horizon when Anton, his father Anders, and his sister Anna went to ride the cart to run away to another country where the undead, they hoped, would never catch up. Anton’s father rode in the front seat and would drive the two horses Maide and Bailey. Anna op...

Chapter 16

Anton farmed the Forgotten Tower until he had a few more runes but knowing that his inventory space was limited since his private stash was being used for real-world items, he decided to stop farming and continue to the Outer Cloister zone.

Clearing out the Outer Cloister brought his level ...

Chapter 15

Anton’s father left after a while bringing the cart with animal skins with him to the village. Anna was still busy cooking, so he went back in front of the fireplace to continue leveling up. This time though, instead of doing it virtually, he did the on-screen option since doing it that way was...

Chapter 14

By the time Anton’s father finished cutting up the body of the bear so he could lift it and put it in his inventory, Anton was told by Anders that it was already noon, so they decided to return home.

Before they reached their house, both father and son could smell the food that was being ...

Chapter 13

Anton followed his father to the woods behind their house. The woods were beyond the farm, and they needed to walk for at least thirty minutes before they arrived at the outskirts of the forest.

“It’s a good thing were at the start of spring, there will be a lot of game in the forest,�...
