“[That’s not enough. It’s still too unfocused.]”
Henry’s head was pounding as he tightened his will around the uneven ball of glowing mana between his arms. He tried to concentrate it. To increase its density and potency to match the mana material used in ability construc...

They should be exciting :D

It was with Stormsong’s dire warning in mind that the trio began working on luring in their first squid.
While they waited under an isolated outcropping of rocks and coral, Henry used one of his blood clones as bait. Using Mimicking Arms, he gave its skin an almost glossy look and began f...
2024-10-17 14:25:00 +0000 UTC View PostThe cat’s tail swished as Ethan finished off the remaining lizardlings. She was lying on her stomach, pupil narrowed in a line. Her flames were more agitated as well, flaring up in bursts over her back and chest but soon enough, there was quiet in the cave and she seemed to relax. She put her h...
2024-10-16 20:59:52 +0000 UTC View PostEthan didn’t twitch a finger as he watched the orange cat approach. Not out of fear, though he was a bit worried. This thing had twenty levels on him and, well, it was a cat.
They were unpredictable.
Ethan didn’t have a lot of experience with cats aside from the one time he tried ...
2024-10-16 20:59:39 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Rough (and exciting) week. I'm hoping to have the third chapter ready by Friday, but I'm swamped. We'll see how it goes. In the meantime, have you checked the new story yet? It's doing alright :)
Henry had been dismantling [Rupturing Bite of the Sea Drake] when th...
2024-10-16 14:55:35 +0000 UTC View PostThe lizardlings approaching him were in rough shape. Even though they had protective measures, it just wasn’t enough to shake off a close-range detonation. They came at him, slow and steady behind their shields, with their wand-users casting spells at him, and Ethan only took a few steps toward...
2024-10-16 01:54:27 +0000 UTC View PostEthan decided to wait on the tier-2 selection. He didn’t want to rush it, and he didn’t want to get the wrong kind of spell now that he was getting close to level 30 and, in any case, he didn’t have a lot of time to dally. He couldn’t afford to sit down and think his options through.
<... 2024-10-16 01:54:08 +0000 UTC View PostEthan stepped in, teeth bared, and leaned into the uppercut with his whole body. His flaming fist slammed into lizardling’s rib, and the gout of flames hit the bone armor point blank. The glowing symbols shone as the flames diverged around the lizardling’s body, but no matter how magic the ar...
2024-10-15 01:25:36 +0000 UTC View PostThe lizardlings didn’t chase him for too long after his escape.
Killing the three escorting him had been quick, and by the time the camp guards reacted and came after him, Ethan had already collected the lizardling’s fragment and booked it.
They tried chasing him through the woods...
2024-10-15 01:25:21 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Didn't have enough time to edit another one as I'm behind with Undersea. There's specifically a pov switch scene that I'm not super happy with and it's gonna take me a minute. Tomorrow there'll be more advanced chapters, for sure. Hopefully two or three.

Edit: I'm on semi-break until the start of November! I got editing work to get through. For details, check here. Subscribing now means you'll get access to the advanced chapter, but the...
2024-10-12 18:51:12 +0000 UTC View Post“Let’s do the stats first… they might help with the pain and hunger.”
Ethan eyed his current stats for a moment and noted how low his Might and Spirit were. They were being raised by the wand, which was all nice and good, but the wand stats should be a bonus, not his main source of ...
2024-10-12 18:43:41 +0000 UTC View PostLeaning slightly out of the tunnel, Ethan raised a hand and sent a gout of barely concentrated flames toward the mystic toad. It didn’t reach as far as he wanted, but he hoped it would scare the beast away or at least make it take a step back. Enough to give him time to make a run for it, but a...
2024-10-12 16:59:59 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: This is an advanced chapter of the new story! If you haven't read it yet, check in on RR before reading this! (It's already on the Rising Stars list and climbing. Fingers crossed).

First order of business: Today is the 11th of October and as I mentioned in the past the content that I currently have will be all put under the 5$ tier.
As of now, Hermits and Krakens have access to the same chapters (aka, all the way up to 2.18).<...

“[I’m not bait!]”
Henry cackled at the incensed crab.“[It was a joke! Relax. Of course I won’t risk your life just for bait.]”
That barely mellowed the crab down for a moment. Before Henry added, “[Unless you want to?]” 2024-10-10 15:24:17 +0000 UTC View Post
A/N: Big week! The price changes go live on Friday. 3 chapters of UR and launch of the new story should be this week. Just gotta finish some recommended edits by the dev editor. Aiming for tomorrow (late) night. The patreon chapters for that might have to wait a bit though. I got a bunch bu...

Henry couldn’t see from one eye, while the second was seeing things he couldn’t… interpret.
Something was very wrong. The worst of the pain had passed, but it only left a dreadful confusion in its place, and Henry couldn’t make sense of what he was seeing. ...
2024-10-02 13:54:20 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Happy Wednesday!
Hope you're are doing well. This is going to be another smaller week as I'm reaching the end of my bandwidth. The launch of the new story is close, and now I need to do some editing and prep and all that. We'll be back to a regular schedule very soon and I'm super than...
2024-10-02 13:54:03 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Huge thanks to the new patrons!
Henry’s thoughts whirled as the B-Rank dolphin approached. Its presence was heavy, and the kraken found it hard to look away. Even though Henry could detect no Concepts or mana around Sundots, that only made him feel nervous.

Henry swam to the cave’s exit as he called back his camouflaged blood clones, while his Octominds established their connection once more. Stormsong was right next to him, peering at the world outside, while Maurice continued pouting on the seat Henry had made for him.<...

Henry set Blink as the cornerstone skill for Swiftness of the Trickster and turned his attention to Fury of the Trickster.
Should he take that one? Now that he was considering it… it wasn’t that bad. It was themed around fury...

As always, I'm super thankful to all of you who support me, and this week, I was thinking and wondering about how best to structure my Patreon, what is fair and what isn't, what should I publish where and when and I just... got sick of it.
