A few moments after upgrading his skill Ajax felt a wave of drowsiness overcome him and he fell asleep. He didn’t know it but his entire bedding was thrown around like a hurricane had passed through that night from all the twisting and turning he had been doing.
Ajax woke up the next morn...
2023-01-07 02:52:50 +0000 UTC View PostThe most recent chapter is the one for Wednesday. I will be trying to keep a consistent M W F weekly upload and should anything change I will make sure to let you guys know in advance.
2023-01-05 04:31:01 +0000 UTC View PostAjax laid in bed as he remembered a very specific time from his training with Hatchet.
Ajax P.O.V Two years ago
I heaved for every breath following the obstacle course. Course was a new addition meant to prepare me to run away should I ever be vastly outmatched. Knowi...

As the team was preparing to exit the dungeon and return to the outside both Jaclyn and Devin approached Jones.
“We understand that Ajax's abilities are something the confidentiality covers from sharing with others but we would like a chance to offer him a position with ...
2023-01-04 04:23:29 +0000 UTC View PostI want to say that I am very sorry for my absence these past two months. Quite a few things happened in my personal life one after another at the same time as my first instance of writers block. There is really no excuse however for me going radio silence on you and I can only ask for your forgiv...
2023-01-04 04:22:35 +0000 UTC View PostMuch like the first time when he saw an obelisk activated on the first floor on his previous delve, Ajax could feel a mana pulse as soon as it was activated. This mana pulse was a lot stronger however, he had a random thought if he could syphon part of the pulse and only have half a dungeon come ...
2022-10-29 09:32:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe new skill was somehow different than any other skill Ajax had learned. So far skills have been broken up into two categories: active and passive. Active skills like his [Judge Threat], [Piercing Shot] and even [Mana Syphon] could be used on demand for a cost, be it stamina mana or just focus....
2022-10-27 10:01:15 +0000 UTC View PostFor the next three days the team roamed the cave system clearing out and mapping the whole place. They ran into a lot more bats and kobold patrols but didn’t manage to find any other monster speciase on the entire floor. They also managed to locate where the den was on this floor. They also did...
2022-10-25 05:55:33 +0000 UTC View PostI am sorry for the delay in getting the last two chapters out. Had some people come over to Aerate my lawn for the first time. I didn't expect that they would cut the internet cable when doing so. Not only that but I didn't realize that was the problem for an entire day so it took a while to get ...
2022-10-24 10:36:36 +0000 UTC View PostAjax was happy with his fight against the kobold. Despite having to use [Mana Syphon] on a high (medium if you consider the ambient mana) consumption rate he managed to dispatch the caster quickly.
“Is a den or village exactly what it sounds like?” he asked Nelly.
“Pretty much, ...
2022-10-24 10:29:44 +0000 UTC View PostJaclyn P.O.V
The tunnel we were heading down was split off into two different pathways. We didn’t have any reason to rush but since both tunnels looked the same and they didn’t want to send off their scout more than a hundred feet they decided to just go right. Unlike the main tunnel we...
2022-10-24 10:29:16 +0000 UTC View PostAjax made quick work of his cutting, his lumberjack skill getting some prolonged work for the first time in years. He had to admit he was rather curious about the two tag VIP’s they were escorting. According to their scout all three of the bosses in this area had spawned at their maximum level ...
2022-10-18 08:24:28 +0000 UTC View PostA/N : sorry for the delay, but here is the Friday chapter from last week
The journey to the dungeon was moving slower than it did last time. Ajax soon learned that one of the things that buying a pass or a boost got you was a certain level of comfort. Despite bei...
2022-10-17 06:33:33 +0000 UTC View PostAjax P.O.V
That was definitely different, I didn’t read anything about there being anything out of the ordinary with this delve and yet there was a new person carrying a few of the porter bags and talking to Jones.
The woman in question looked a lot younger, at least compared to eve...
2022-10-15 08:13:08 +0000 UTC View PostThe next morning was spent in a mixture of tracking and healing. Since Kate was going to get the basic framework for a Healing Union project started he was going to keep on training his healing magic. The problem came as he first tried to see what the limitations on healing bloodloss were.

2022-10-13 07:47:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe biggest problem Ajax now faced was how was he going to try and adapt the healing magic he analyzed, unlike the other forms of magic he used before this one was a lot easier to mess up and had a much bigger impact than just lighting himself on fire briefly.
Any actual application would h...
2022-10-11 05:41:29 +0000 UTC View PostA/N : Thanks for the understanding, my fever broke and I am feeling much better. This is Wednesday's chapter.

2022-10-10 05:15:17 +0000 UTC View PostI have caught a cold. I did check and it's not covid just a run of the mill cold. Because of this however chapters might be delayed a bit but I will chat up on them.

This night has taken a turn I hadn’t really expected it to. Everyone was starting to worry with Ajax and the Collectors taking an extra two days to return. The only hope we held onto was that they planned on only going to the first floor and that the team was highly overqualif...
2022-10-04 10:04:14 +0000 UTC View PostAfter getting through the gate and sharing the loot Jones dismissed the group as he said he could do the report to the guild in person. Apparently while skimming on taxes was not only a tried and true practice all delves were to be reported to the guild. Ajax didn’t know why that was and everyo...
2022-10-01 10:11:12 +0000 UTC View PostNelly P.O.V
As we started traveling back towards the city all of us started to loosen up again. It may not be easy to see from the outside but all of us go on edge every time we head towards the dungeon. This time it was to a much lesser extent on the way there as the initial plan had been ...
2022-09-29 08:21:04 +0000 UTC View PostAs the entire team stepped through the arch to exit. Unlike the smooth travel to enter the dungeon, exiting was a much different story. The split second in which he traveled back to the outside felt like an entire theme park ride back on Earth condensed. That wasn’t the worst part however, chan...
2022-09-27 03:59:27 +0000 UTC View PostAN : Sorry for the delay, getting it to upload was a bit of a pain.
The discussion had left Ajax with a lot to think about. Up until now he had always seen the fear most common people had for nobles but had only gotten a view of the sense of superiority some nobles ha...
2022-09-24 11:00:53 +0000 UTC View PostPearls were specials. Unlike other gems they weren’t tied to only being able to channel a specific type of mana through them. Ajax was very much interested in observing the pearl and comparing it to the feeling he got from running his mana through the glove he always wore.
He knew the glo...
2022-09-22 09:57:53 +0000 UTC View PostDespite not intending to enter the next floor through the gate Ajax still felt a small desire to go through it. He quickly crushed it down, it was only eight stat points in total and it wasn’t like he was losing them he would have plenty of time, until he reached level fifty or maybe even fifty...
2022-09-20 04:12:56 +0000 UTC View PostAs he woke up Ajax was already looking forward to a day of delving. Having already gained twenty thousand experience in such a short amount of time was really pushing him forward. He knew it wasn’t something sustainable, as his skills grew the amount of experience would lessen, not only that bu...
2022-09-17 05:52:48 +0000 UTC View PostAfter confirming that there was nothing in the cave and that there was only one entrance the team set up a sentry watch inside the big cavern and turned the obelisk room into their sleeping quarters.
Ajax laid down exhausted. The first day on the first floor wasn’t hard and while clearing...
2022-09-15 04:56:34 +0000 UTC View PostLooting the corcs was a speedy affair. Their core was housed at the base of their skull. It was hard to get to if you tried reaching from above, the closest point of approach. But certainly much easier to get to from below. Ajax learned that the reason they were so confident in taking out the gro...
2022-09-13 07:56:13 +0000 UTC View PostThe wood was tough and harder to handle than he would have expected, despite his massive jump in stats this wood was harder for him to handle than basic wood had been during his training with Hatchet. Said training had already taught him how to make his own arrows in case he ever ran out so that ...
2022-09-10 04:43:43 +0000 UTC View PostAs one everyone dropped their conversations as they formed up in what seemed to be a practiced formation. Ajax noticed it was different from the one they moved in through the forest but that made sense seeing as they were not in a different biome and facing flying enemies.
He also caught si...
