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.

Yeah, after checking again to see when exactly the writathon ends, I decided what the heck. I'll just release the story on Royal Road tomorrow morning. Most likely. Because I'm impatient.

So chapter one will be releasing tomorrow. Then chapter two the day after. And chapter three the day after.

Then it'll be one chapter every other day until the story reaches the Rising Stars list. At which point I'll increase it to one chapter every day. And I'll start running ads when the story hits the Rising Stars list.

This is my current plan for this release due to Royal Road drastically changing the way their algorithm works since my last story release on RR, making it harder for preexisting author's new stories to do well since incredibly fast success actually hurts it a bit now.

Since this is my first attempt at this release strategy, it could change at any moment.

So take note that the earlier mentioned plan is not set in stone and can change at any moment.

As for when these chapters on my Patreon will be come patron only? Probably after the first three chapters are on Royal Road. So not for a few days still.
