On my way towards the house I made a quick stop by the alchemist’s place, after all the amount of increase the poison resistance skill would gain would be too specialised if it all came from a single type of poison so it was best that I would get some recipes before I left on the 2 week journey...

The trip back to the village was quiet as we were trying to get there as fast as we could without attracting any more attention to ourselves than we already had from running through the place. My mind wandered back to the magic the kobold was using and how he used quick bursts of earth to help hi...

“What was different about this wolf?” I questioned Hatchet, just because I knew the thing had mana didn’t mean I knew much else about it.
“That was your first beast type monster kid” He blandly answered as he started bagging the wolf to take back to the village, all my prior knowl...

Over the weeks have seen a new routine settle in. Every 4 or 5 days I would join Hatchet in going on a hunt for game or just scouting. We weren’t that lucky to find game on a scouting mission after that first time. That’s not to say that our time was just spent walking around. He had me on hi...

Hatchet P.O.V:
This kid is a born fighter, from the moves I spotted him pulling off and the speed and power he had throughout his training I would say he has all the skills not only unlocked but probably quite a bit above 10. He is a natural born fighter and is wasted on being a hunter in a...

My morning started the same as it always did. I woke up, got dressed, picked up my weapons and headed outside to start my training before the rest of the house woke up. Though I did start with the bow this time and increased the time I put into it, after all if there was a precise cut and precise...

Walking into the butchers shop I knew my way around, I had been working here for the past few cycles. Everything was just as I left it, the shop was just barely something that can’t be called a mess, with a system to everythings location, just a system I couldn’t make heads or tails of in all...

For the last 2 years and 11 cycles I have been a blacksmith at first until my mother could arrange for me to get someone to take me on as an apprentice, 2 more cycles not much, I was then a leatherworker, an alchemist, a farmer and let me tell that was a surprise not in that there was profession ...

The last two weeks I was put through my paces by my brother and Kate, both seeming to have made it their mission to ensure that I was ready to become a guard should that be something I wanted. Between the two of them I was always doing something whether it be training with a weapon or being heale...

I was a bit hyperactive as I made my way to the caravan, Tom and Kate decided to join me, Kate to meet any of my brother's friends that will surely be there and Tom, in his own words, to see me get ripped off. I couldn’t understand how that was going to happen since I knew the worth of my goods...

“How is life in the city?” Judy went on to question my brother during the meal.
“It’s very different, going from a village where everyone knows each other to a place filled with strangers that look out mainly for only their own family, it took some adjustment” my brother answered....

The two weeks trip to the small village Open Caves did me a lot of good. I was still a little worked up from what had happened but at least most of my anger had bled out and I was only left with a lot of restless energy from just sitting in a cart.

For the last few weeks all of our neighbors have been wondering why Judy came running home barely 10 minutes after going to see the caravan. Let me tell you that having them buy that it was all because of her finding the two emeralds in an odd piece of ore was a hard sell. But the way Judy sold i...

The plants were more growing better than I ever would have expected, and I was experimenting to find out if the input also played a part in how well mana farming would play out by having the same type of plant being infused with my mana to capacity and it being watered by normal water, mana infus...

I got used to hearing that sound over the last 5 cycles. Dad apparently decided that it was time for me to learn something outside of housekeeping and started me off with blacksmithing. I heard that my brother started with swordsmanship but I guess he wanted to steer me...

It has been almost 3 years since I said goodbye to my brother, and I find myself in the garden tending to my little pet project. It all started with the silly superstition that X marks the spot, and I was convinced that there had to be a treasure there. Don’t judge me, if there is one thing tha...

The sun had barely started rising, a few rays making it through the window as I finished exhausting my stamina and mana. I crawled out of bed wanting to continue to practice my walking. I had no problem walking for a few weeks now but still had the bad habit of tripping when I picked up the speed...

I woke up early as I usually do and spent the next few minutes emptying out my mana pool before going doing the same to half my stamina and then continuing to make progress on my next big challenge: walking.

I wake up to a few rays of sun getting through the window and try to twist my head to get the light out of my eyes when I remember the scene last night and I’m instantly awake.
I tentatively try to pull up my status and sure enough the same thing as last night appears.

I woke up at 5 AM on a Saturday morning, drenched in cold sweat, I don’t even remember the dream I had. All I know is that it went south real quick and that I woke up right as it did.
Knowing that I couldn’t get back to sleep I dragged myself out of bed and headed for the shower. I just...
