“Meet me on the first day of the pause at the hospital in room 243. I know something about Eliza.”
Alexej’s words, whispered to her when she had been helplessly pressed into the coarse sand of the arena, were burned into her memory.
Why? Why did he have to know something about that dam...

“Are you being for real?” John asked. “You do that and I give you the information I have,” Richard answered. “…What would you gain from that?” the Gamer was immediately suspicious; whenever the Horned Rat gave him something for free there was some hidden baggage attached to it.

To find Nia, John first had to lay out the bait. In the name of getting the best bait, he therefore had to waste another 3 hours of his life doing an Assault. His personal EXP-gain aside, it was still the best way to fill up the potion.
“God, I love this skill,” John said as he unleashed...

“So, can you see that?” John asked Lydia, who was not in his group for the moment. He was pointing at a symbol at the ground, lines of softly glowing light purple that formed three different sized rings that interlocked, forming a triangular shape with a rune in the middle.
“Without any obst...

“Finally, I just hope my assumption is correct…” John said and, after weeks of grinding, dropped the last needed points into Wisdom, pushing it to 250.

“And he surrendered,” Jeff said in a defeated tone; “Yes, as expected this fight was over in a flash. Alexej just gave up, how boring.” John actually didn’t agree with the commentator there; Thana and the blonde Slav had exchanged a few words before the surrender came in. Which was slightl...

Out of his whole group, John was the one that needed the least amount of training (aside from Thana), but that didn’t mean that he needed none. Reaching level 100 was needed for several reasons.
The most important reasons where that he would get access to another class level, which he would most...

John was keeping his head very low as everyone sat in the living room. The sound of cooking from the kitchen was one of the few sounds that echoed through the tension thicked air. However, even those were kept to a minimum, Aclysia doing her best not to give any of the three angry women sitting arou...

John yawned as he watched over the edge of his fortress. Settings restored to normal, he was currently doing his usual grind. Everything was the same as ever, except that he had to do even less now. With Undine guarding the walls with her iron water bubbles, John literally could sit back and grind b...

John was barely out of his shoes when Rave pushed him further into the house. “Go, go!” she urged him, her battle suit retracting back into its bases in her shoes already, which she threw off a moment later. She was stark naked, in the middle of the hallway, and now dragging him towards the livi...

The inner workings of the building made John question why he even bothered making sure nobody followed them. A good 50 people were active in and around the base floor, making calls, sitting at computers, holding stacks of paper, losing half of them as they ran from point A to point B.

They went to John’s and Rave’s room where he immediately went over to the bed and pulled something out from under it. It was a flat chest, about half a metre high and two wide, of simple wood. An accurate description of it would also have been an oversized, wooden briefcase. He put his hand on t...

In the darkness of the night, it was hard to make out details about Undine’s bloated form. She was shapeless, that much was clear, just a thrashing mass of water and slime. There was neither sense nor direction to her attacks. Just a blind unleashing of powers new and foreign.
