Ajax felt a lot better after he finished his report to the king, despite that however he was starting to get more and more worried. With every attempt the assassin got closer and closer to killing him. The only reason the last one didn’t kill him was because the poison never made contact with h...

2024-09-14 02:53:15 +0000 UTC View PostFor the first time in a while Ajax actually had a rather easy time in all the floors of the dungeon. Even the final floor didn’t pose that much of a challenge for him because of the extra stats he gained from his skills. If anything the floor was the perfect wet stone for him to get a decent ha...

Only two hours into the delve and already most of the group had already finished their kills for the third floor.

2024-09-10 03:47:23 +0000 UTC View PostAjax was very impressed with Xavier’s new style. From what little he had shared about his breakthrough it seems that besides the usual five skill types that were used as the basis for this style, he had also added the Uncommon skill [Battle Rhythm].
Before getting his battle st...
2024-09-07 04:32:39 +0000 UTC View PostAjax was glad that Lioriel had at least waited until he had recovered and rejoined the others before she started asking questions but he was in no mood to be answering them.
“I don’t know how I did it.” Ajax answered honestly. “This result was a happy accident.” 2024-09-05 04:17:13 +0000 UTC View Post

2024-08-29 03:46:59 +0000 UTC View PostAs he recovered more and more Ajax found himself feeling odd in his own skin, it wasn’t enough for him to have any real issues but it just felt a little odd.
