The next few days of the expedition passed with relative quiet. The group moved from place to place, taking measurements from afar and observing the broken mana zone, keeping an eye out for any other odd items or potential problems. However, nothing ‘new’ popped up after the strange rock. The...
2021-08-26 21:47:44 +0000 UTC View PostAlice stared at the piece of wall. Even though it was jagged, as if someone had turned it into a jigsaw puzzle piece, it was still clearly recognizable. She had grown up seeing that wall as she had played with the other children on the street. It still had the same horrible paint job, the same sc...
2021-08-19 23:08:12 +0000 UTC View PostThat night, the expedition set up camp well away from the broken mana region. Even though it would force the expedition to travel to and from the area, wasting several hours out of every day, nobody wanted to be caught off-guard if a monster swarm decided they were food. Maintaining a healthy dis...
2021-08-13 01:05:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe mass of monsters undulated and squirmed as Alice stared at it, wondering what the hell she had gotten herself into. When she had first arrived in this world, all of the plant life had been dead in the area. However, it had still been present at the very least. There had been dead tre...
2021-08-05 21:22:23 +0000 UTC View PostThe expedition continued on for the rest of the day with a quiet and somber mood. The guards were required to patrol the area much more frequently, and Alice occasionally saw Illa or one of the other high-level [Kinetic Mages] fly to the tops of trees and scout the surrounding area from the air, ...
2021-07-29 21:32:57 +0000 UTC View PostWhen Alice woke up, the first thing she noticed was that the pain in her arm and her stomach were gone. Clearly, someone had gone through the effort of fixing all of the problems with her body after the fight. The (presumably) [Organic Mage] that had saved her during the fight was gone, probably ...
2021-07-24 21:31:23 +0000 UTC View PostAlice was awoken from her light nap with a loud bang.
Huh? Alice, still groggy, turned around, trying to figure out what was going on. Her head was still hazy, because she had just woken up.
“What’s going on?” Asked Alice, trying to make sense of the sudden noi...

2021-07-07 21:22:29 +0000 UTC View PostAfter several hours of waiting in the wagons, Alice was bored. The mystery of exactly how and why she had appeared here was intriguing, and Alice had wondered what the expedition itself would be like. She had imagined something far more interesting – an exploration of a world filled with magic ...
2021-07-07 21:19:27 +0000 UTC View PostThe expedition’s staging area was more chaotic than Alice had imagined it being – even though everyone knew what they were doing and where they were supposed to be, the sheer number of people involved still surprised her. Alice wandered around, since she had nothing to do, and wondered if the...
2021-07-02 21:21:51 +0000 UTC View PostWhen she got back to the mansion, Alice started out by writing down what she had discovered over the course of the day into her notebook.
- Magicians seem to have had a tendency to melt themselves to death before the System appeared.
- Possibly hints that the System helps people deal ...
2021-06-27 19:37:34 +0000 UTC View PostAfter her training session with Illa, Alice went to the church. It was on the way to Cecilia’s shop, and Alice wanted to see if there were any records about magic seeds, or the massive number of weird System messages she had seen yesterday. Apart from that, she wanted to see if the church had a...
2021-06-20 20:54:34 +0000 UTC View PostAfter whatever the hell had just happened, Alice realized she was missing something. An incredibly critical piece of equipment that Science needed, and that she had been lacking up until now. It was, indeed, what one might consider critical to [Scientists] and scientists. Beyond a place ...
2021-06-15 22:39:52 +0000 UTC View PostAlice started out the day by taking a look at her newly acquired level 10 [Scientist] Perk. She opened up her Status Screen and looked over her options.

2021-06-10 19:44:07 +0000 UTC View PostI should have made this post a while ago, but I was... not exactly in the best state of mind last month, and did several things rather sub-optimally.
I'm feeling much better now! Hooray! I'm just making this post to clarify what happened to the Ch 24 [Scholar Perk].
The Perk was changed ...
2021-06-06 03:14:41 +0000 UTC View PostThat night, after Alice had taken {Three Seeds} and was checking over her Status Screen, a thought occurred to Alice.
Why were there 143 Mariums of Kinetic Energy mana inside of her magic seed if there were only 67 Mariums of mana inside of her? That… that didn’t make any sense did it?<...
2021-06-06 03:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe next day, Alice headed to the Church, in order to sit down and verify her thoughts on Mana and attributes. Alice got Priest Friedheim’s permission to sit in on his lesson with the children of the town relatively easily – it seemed the man did not mind her sitting on the edge of the lesson...
2021-06-01 18:45:50 +0000 UTC View PostWould you prefer Alice keep the Perk as is, change the effect a bit, Change it a lot, or change the Perk entirely?
Option 1: What's done is done. Alice has chosen her Perk, and must stick with it.
Option 2: I would prefer {Lesser Reduced Sleep requirement} be changed from somethin...
2021-05-27 19:23:09 +0000 UTC View Post"If you are done staring at your System notifications, may I ask what exactly you're doing?" Asked Illa, staring at Alice and frowning.
“Huh?” Alice gave Illa a dumbfounded look.

2021-05-27 19:03:58 +0000 UTC View PostAlice spent the night in nervous anticipation, before she finally got up the next day. She started out by reading through more of Illa’s library, as usual, but couldn’t focus on the words in each book as well as she normally could.
Today, she would finally test one of her theories. She ...
2021-05-22 18:52:30 +0000 UTC View PostThe next morning, when Alice woke up her entire body hurt. She had hoped that perhaps some effect of the System or some Perk from Illa would fix sore muscles. Unfortunately, reality, destroyer of dreams, informed her that this wasn’t the case. Groaning, she flopped out of bed, her arms still tw...
2021-05-17 22:47:01 +0000 UTC View PostAfter two hours of grueling training, Illa finally allowed Alice to stop training. Alice took this as permission to instantly drop dead, not even bothering to find a place to lay down before collapsing onto the floor. The waves of exhaustion that she had been suppressing for hours crashed over he...
2021-05-14 18:58:48 +0000 UTC View PostWhen Alice arrived at the mansion, the guard at the gate quickly waved her through. Clearly, she had been told to expect Alice’s arrival.
After entering the estate, she was directed to a small waiting room, and a maid made her some tea. Alice absently noted that the water seemed to heat i...
2021-05-09 20:30:49 +0000 UTC View PostAlice nearly departed from the church, before she finally remembered why she had come here in the first place. Even though she had already accepted the [Scientist] class, she could definitely do with some advice on her build right now.

I really wanted to get Patreon three chapters ahead by the end of the month, but right now my mental state is basically a mess.

2021-04-29 18:58:42 +0000 UTC View PostAlice spent several hours looking through the book, forgetting to even find something to eat. Honestly, even more than she needed to think about her potential fourth class and what she might want as her final main class, Alice needed to unwind for a while. As a bookworm, spending some time readin...
2021-04-28 00:01:59 +0000 UTC View PostAlice took a few moments in the court room to simply breathe in and out. The feeling of relief that she felt when the court pronounced that she was innocent was a huge weight off of her shoulders. At the same time, the knowledge she would never be going home was like a stone in her heart. Still, ...
2021-04-24 21:15:40 +0000 UTC View Post“CALM DOWN!” Snapped Illa. A wave of… pressure crashed over, and the crude spears fell out of midair, immediately slamming back into the ground.
