Don't mind this. It's so that free readers can't see half the chapter when the chapter eventually becomes patron only.

For those of you who are reading this on a website that is not Patreon, please stop. You're reading a pirated version. Instead, if you would be so kind, please click on the table of contents link below and go to my Patreon instead. Or even read it off of Royal Road, which is free.

And we back.

My original plan for releasing the story on Royal Road flopped completely due to the vast number of people finding the new story without me announcing it. So I just decided to go with my usual process for starting new stories on Royal Road.

Let's see if I can brute force the Rising Stars algorithm with the sheer number of readers swarming the story from my other stories lmao. Since the way that new algorithm is set up directly hurts authors with a preestablished reader-base.

On another note, gonna be pausing writing to eat dinner after posting this chapter.

Will continue writing after I eat.

Oh, and I will stick to what I said before. The chapters on my Patreon for Pioneer will remain public for anyone to read until the day after tomorrow. Then they will become patron only.
