72 - The Island Guardian

I sat about halfway up the mountain that had the guardian up top, relaxing a bit to let my MP restore a bit. I’d gone on a mad killing spree shortly after nightfall yesterday, and it was currentl...

71 - New Skill Tree

The sun was starting to go down, painting the sky orange, beautifully reflected in the ocean. I took a few moments to appreciate the lovely view, before pulling up my new skill tree. This new addit...

70 - The Fifth Layer

There we go, first chapter after the vacation. As expected, this chapter is a bit on the longer-ish side, when compared to the rest. Enjoy! :)

Vacation = Over

Hey guys, my vacation is now (sadly) officially over. Which means, starting tomorrow, I will pick up the proverbial pen again to continue writing. I'm not entirely sure how long the first chapter i...

68 - Fifth Evolution

Next chapter might take a while to come out, since I need to do some planning before we descend to the next layer. Also, Patreon text editor still sucks.

27 chapters

Yes, you heard that right, it's been 27 chapters since the last evolution. By far the longest time between evolutions. As I've said in the chapter post where Gary got his EX passive, I plan to spee...

67 - The Hunt

I was racing through the open plains of the fourth layer, making sure to give other monsters a wide berth. I could probably easily dispatch all of them, but I’d learned my lesson about getting co...

If you'd like to suggest a monster for Gary to fight at some point, you can leave a comment detailing it here. I can't guarantee that they show up soon, or at all, but if I like the idea and it fit...

Bit of a longer one. Also, the things I'd do to have a proper text editor on patreon. System windows are gonna look like shit on here :(
