Chapter 312

Ajax woke up with the worst hangover he had ever had in this life or his past life. Archduke Goldenmouth had managed to interject himself into a conversation he was part of and Ajax could actually feel himself slipping up. While he wasn’t normally a fan of wine that was the only thing that was ...

Chapter 311

As Ajax entered the large ball room he was surprised by the variance he could see in attendance at the party. Even after all this time in the Republic he was still used to a more segregated split between the races. This wasn’t out of need but preference since most elves would stick to the elven...

Chapter 310

Ajax barely dodged the incoming sword slash. Much as he preferred his hammer and axe to his sword he did have to admit that swords were the preferential choice for the tournament. Despite his preference to the other weapon type he most often ended up using a sword in his main or off-hand simply b...

Chapter 309

The Republic was the most intimidating city Ajax had ever laid eyes on. Deep down he had always known that it would be impressive, the history lessons had made that perfectly clear but to see it now a mix of beastkin, dwarves, elves and humans all working to build an impenetrable city, followed b...

Chapter 308

Ajax was mentally exhausted by the end of the night. The prince had managed to spare him and Lexi the wrath of the nobles who lost their money to archduke Goldmancer’s schemes, he did so by taking them to the king’s balcony where they were exposed more than a few nobles

What Ajax had lo...

Chapter 307

Once inside the auction house Ajax had no use for his ticket. Despite them being received as a show of good will for his testimony of the steampunk gear Ajax, Lexi, Judy and Elija had all been invited to the Goldmancer private balcony.

Due to the instability that had been dragged out of Oli...

Chapter 306

Darkcavern’s layout was very different from any other city Ajax had seen. Having first been a giant ant hive it made perfect sense that its topside landscape would look like a small hill filled with holes, there were a few human houses dotted around but it mostly looked like two or three villag...

Chapter 305

“What’s our next stop?” Ajax asked once he entered the carriage of the Goldmancer family. All of the guards knew he had a standing invitation so he didn’t have to bother with formalities.

“The initial plan was to head straight to the other… lesser dungeon, the whole plan was to ...

Chapter 304

Ajax slept a lot better that night after the conversation with Shadow. It led him to make a lot of realizations about who might be a potential ally. Of course his subconscious chose that exact night to prove just how wrong he could be. Two nightmares back to back where he was chased down by the d...

Chapter 303

A/N : Sorry for the slight delay on the chapter. I wasn't happy with a chunk of it and I was doing some changes.

Ajax P.O.V.

It had been a good while since I had ever felt so vulnerable. From the looks of it there was no real danger as the panther beastkin in front of...

Chapter 302

There was more than a little grumbling at the king's threat. While the majority of the kingdom had adapted over the decades since the peace treaty nobility tended to live for much longer. Even then the ones most resistant to the change were the old low rank nobles who were already approaching the...

Chapter 301

With the king’s oldest son in attendance all of the main tournament participants were in the enchanted carriage. Only a single participant from the under level one hundred was here, the other two choosing to stay in their own carriages, the king didn’t much care as this didn’t pertain to th...

Chapter 300

While Ajax left his father at the estate as he was working on something, the rest of his family was either going to be joining him or were waiting to say goodbye at the convoy. Both Kate and Tom would be staying behind, Ajax’s nephew wasn’t yet old enough to travel and neither would handle be...

Chapter 299

Ajax felt a deep sense of accomplishment as he looked towards the Academy. Despite still being welcome to come in as his position had been that of a teaching assistant instead of a student Ajax knew that he probably won’t be coming by all that often unless it was to scour the library for someth...

Chapter 298

After his return from the Empire Ajax’s day to day life settles into a repetitive schedule of studying and training that is only interrupted by delves and the occasional party. He had a clear goal, the tournament, and this time his opponents will be the best of the best selected from people twi...

Chapter 297

The trip back was very much like the trip to the Empire yet for Ajax they might as well have been completely different. The only part that hadn’t changed for him was the noble parties that he dreaded to attend.

“Are you sure that’s what you want to focus on now?” The Goldmancer guar...

Chapter 296

Chapter 296

Ajax was focusing on his healing and holy magic as the guards surrounded him looking ready to move on.

“I don’t know which part is more unbelievable: that you are seventeen and you brought down a level seventy-four or that you are only level thirty-six and did the same...

Chapter 295

Ajax woke up refreshed the next morning. The booster had made sure that anything they needed to take care of was killed quietly without disturbing the two people they brought with them who would need their rest.

“Are you ready?” The Goldmancer guard asked him. “We have been tailing a ...

Chapter 294

The full twenty people entered the first floor of the dungeon, despite Oliver now being locked up and awaiting a trial once they returned to the kingdom it was clear that a substitute had been found to take his spot.

Despite there being twenty people altogether only five of them could actua...

Chapter 293

“So stupid.” Ajax mutters a little downcast as he rubs his left shoulder.

It had been about ten days since he first entered the dungeon as part of the group of five and Ajax was planning to exit the dungeon today. Ideally he would have liked to stay a lot longer on this floor theme but ...

Chapter 292

Changing back to wielding his usual melee weapons Ajax wasted no time in taking out all three orcs in moments. The only reason he was able to dispatch level fifties quite that easy was because of the irritating damage he had done with the blaster but also because they weren’t expecting him to d...

Chapter 291

As he stands in front of the arch Ajax can’t help but look back down the corridors that make up the labyrinth that is this floor. The high tech panels on the walls, the constant whirr of machinery, before his parents died in his first life experiencing something like this dungeon floor biome wa...

Chapter 290

A/N : Sorry for the delay, I was sure the chapter posted but apparently it was stuck on draft

Ajax wished that we could keep Oliver’s betrayal under wraps but unfortunately that would be too much of a security risk. Without the option to descend back down to lower floors ...

Chapter 289

A/N : Happy new year!

Anna P.O.V.

My heart rate jumped as I felt the mana gather behind me and then approach quickly. I had been told more than once that it was a possibility, the standoff at the first arch had also been a nudge in the right direction but I...

Chapter 288

A/N : I'd like to thank all of you for supporting the story. Today marks the end of my new year resolution that started on January 1st 2023. After my radio silence hiatus from burn out towards the end of last year (Which I am still very sorry about how I handled in terms of communication ...
