Abbot Silvertongue P.O.V
I was getting a migraine the likes of which I hadn’t gotten since I graduated from this place. While my time here learning was actually a pleasant memory, the interrogations I suffered through once I got back home were unending and dull.
It had been more tha...
2023-03-16 02:55:23 +0000 UTC View PostAs the Duke and his followers, as Ajax started to think of them since from the power he felt in the DUke’s aura he didn’t even think he needed guards, exited the dining room everyone else was motionless at the hasty manner in which the duke left. It wasn’t until the door closed with a solid...
2023-03-14 03:04:42 +0000 UTC View PostAjax didn’t even have to flash his token anymore to enter the noble district, the guards at the crossing had seen him coming and going enough to recognise him and just wave him through. Ajax gave them a nod for their expediency and headed for Luna’s house.
As he was walking Ajax thought...
2023-03-11 01:17:28 +0000 UTC View PostAn eerie silence descended on the room as the scroll was placed on the table. Showing their professionalism neither the captain nor the guard changed their expressions when Ajax reached inside his inner pocket and pulled out the contract, Ajax did feel the grip that had never left his shoulder si...
2023-03-09 03:00:35 +0000 UTC View PostThe attack had put everyone on edge even after it was handled so swiftly. Half of the team was made up of newbies who weren’t accustomed to this and the other half weren’t much better only having done a few delves before. This was the disadvantage of having dungeons with low floor jumps, you ...
2023-03-07 05:36:00 +0000 UTC View Post“Good work out there newbie.” One of the sentries tells Ajax. The delve team had set up camp for the night.
Ajax simply nods and continues staring into the fire, supposedly men used to do this back when they lived in caves, just gazing at the fire. At least that’s what a documentary h...

First of all I'd like to thank you all for the feedback on the last chapter. While some of it might have been worded a bit negatively I do app...
2023-03-04 03:17:52 +0000 UTC View PostThe whole room was quiet as Ajax went through telling them all that happened today. He didn’t go into his beekeeping as that hardly seemed like the point on which they needed to focus. Hatchet’s joking expression from the beginning was now gone and he was looking towards Luna for an answer, a...
2023-03-02 04:18:33 +0000 UTC View PostAs he watched the final member fall, knowing his arrow took him in the heart, Ajax slowly closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths. Despite dodging the first hammer blow and the battle not lasting even a dozen seconds his adrenaline was surging through him since from the previous chase through...
2023-02-28 02:14:59 +0000 UTC View PostAN : This chapter is contain a bit more gore than I have put in my previous writing, do you like this more descriptive fights more than my previous ones?
Ajax was stunned at the new development. It didn’t take longer than an instant for him to figure out what w...
2023-02-25 04:56:20 +0000 UTC View PostAfter waking up the next morning, taking a better look throughout the compound and talking to some of the supervisors, Ajax found that his plan to get most of his chores done today wasn’t going to work. All of the kitchen shifts for the day were already taken so the only thing he could do was W...
2023-02-23 01:18:23 +0000 UTC View PostArriving at the trainee housing Ajax didn’t know what to expect but what he found was certainly not it. Instead of just a building he found an entire compound that could easily house over a hundred people. It had a canteen, garden and two dorms.
“Present your token.” The bored gate gu...
2023-02-21 00:45:23 +0000 UTC View PostA/N : Changed the ending of the last chapter to include the names of the dungeons. The level 25 one is the Goldmine and the level 30 one is the Highlands.
Ajax was deep in the forest as he used his knife to carefully collect the piece of glowing moss that was gro...
2023-02-18 02:31:51 +0000 UTC View Post“Is something wrong?” Luna asks, seeing that Ajax froze for a moment.
“No,” Ajax shook his head “Just that I haven’t met anyone else with the name Alfred before.”
He had no way to explain why a butler named Alfred would cause him to have such a reaction, but neither coul...
2023-02-16 05:04:02 +0000 UTC View PostAs he walked down the street Ajax wasn’t paying all that much attention to his surroundings, instead he was studying a piece of paper that he received from the receptionist after he finished all the paperwork for enrolling and getting himself accredited for the combat test.
The piece of p...

The look of the Adventurer’s Guild in the capital really put into perspective just how much of a backwater we had been staying in. It wasn’t just the size of the place, but the line to talk to the receptionist was easily twice as long here despite them having three receptio...
2023-02-09 02:48:47 +0000 UTC View PostAN : Sorry for the late post, I pressed post last night but it just got saved as a draft.
Right after Luna finished fixing Hatchet’s arm someone knocked twice quickly on the door and didn’t wait for an answer before coming in.
“Guild master.” A midd...
2023-02-07 12:04:04 +0000 UTC View PostThe entire room felt like the temperature dropped severely from the statement. Despite the cold tone and violent presence Luna had carefully started unwrapping the bandage and examining the stump attached to Hatchet’s shoulder.
As for Ajax he was still looking at Luna with shocked eyes. H...
2023-02-04 01:06:44 +0000 UTC View PostAjax spent the last few days in an even split. Half the time he was pondering on all the different uses that magic might have. The other half of the time he spent cramming as much as he could about the noble territories, he felt he had a decent grasp on who they were and where they were but match...
2023-02-02 00:43:26 +0000 UTC View PostWith Hatchet’s having solved the food issues for the caravan until they reach the capital there seemed to be no animosity towards Ajax and him from anyone except the apprentice merchant that got fooled.

Hearing there was a group approaching made me freeze for an instant. There are a couple ways that this could go bad for us. The most obvious is that this is a group of bandits, despite the most likely violent outcome this is then one I would prefer to go with right now since i...
2023-01-28 03:19:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe situation was tense yet both sides were somewhat mirroring each other. Ajax and the less experienced of the two guards were both on the edge of turning the situation physical, the tense atmosphere getting to them a little. The more experienced guard and Hatchet were determined to talk it out ...
2023-01-26 01:06:54 +0000 UTC View PostIt had already been two days since they hadn’t seen anyone coming or going on the road. This wasn’t all that odd by itself as in the middle of their second week they had three days where nobody else approached them. The difference now was that they were within half a day's journey of a rather...

2023-01-17 05:57:49 +0000 UTC View PostDesigning new weapons turned out to be a lot harder than he had expected at first, with the curved sword being something of an outlier when it came to ideas. The main reason for this is the very nature of stat points, unlike back on Earth people have a lot more strength and this leads to the acce...
2023-01-14 06:14:51 +0000 UTC View PostAjax nodded to Hatchet and began downing one potion after another. Surprisingly he didn’t feel all that different at first but by the time he was halfway through them a dull pain started spreading through his body. It was nothing at first but by the end Hatchet had to feed him the last two.
