For all our might, there was no way we could defeat the Demon Moon. That thing was a peak A-Grade, and from the beam it was shooting down at us it looked like it was trying very hard to blow up our...
2025-09-29 15:00:17 +0000 UTC View PostI scanned the floating woman and didn't like what I saw.
Pale Moonlight Scholar (Level 575)
Almost as soon as I examined her, the System spat out a quest.
Myrina and I defeated the Void City Eater after about half an hour of fighting. We ended up taking it down fairly quickly compared to the last few, partially because of how much hacking and slicing...
2025-09-26 15:00:14 +0000 UTC View PostSlaying the Void City Eater went about the same as before, though without Sharky to help I ended up breathing a lot of fire on its insides until it finally dropped out of the sky. With it slain, a ...
2025-09-24 16:02:37 +0000 UTC View PostI reluctantly left Bridget with Mimiko once again, then left to meet up with Frank. He was already prepared to leave, and he had a dozen of his best adventurers alongside him. They were all C-Grade...
2025-09-22 15:00:17 +0000 UTC View PostI relayed my message to Sakura and her father, Nakano. I would be meeting with them soon.
I used the teleportation array we'd placed near their base earlier to make my way close to them, then...
2025-09-20 15:00:13 +0000 UTC View PostFor a few minutes I warred between staying at Bridget's side and rushing out to help my city. Thankfully, Mimiko caught up with us not long after, so Bridget wouldn't be alone.
"They might ne...
2025-09-19 15:00:20 +0000 UTC View PostSeraphyne pulled my arm back, which Jade responded to by pulling my other arm in her direction. Pretty soon, I was being yanked in both directions.
My mind was filled by a long-suppressed mem...
2025-09-17 15:00:17 +0000 UTC View PostAs I feared, a battle was about to erupt on the bridge. I'd hoped to get a few more words out before Seraphyne saw Jade, but I hadn't realized it was possible to use the ship's teleportation system...
2025-09-15 15:00:16 +0000 UTC View Post"Uh... you wouldn't happen to be able to control that one like you do Sharky?" Mimiko asked me hopefully.
She saw the enormous Void Leviathan as clearly as I did.
"That isn't Sharky. We...
2025-09-13 15:00:12 +0000 UTC View Post"So, let's drop the people off and be on our way. This is a good world. In a thousand years, I expect to find a prosperous society here. I may even drop others off in the same place," the Goddess i...
2025-09-12 15:00:15 +0000 UTC View PostThe teahouse was completely empty when we left, though the city streets were still crowded.
"We'll fly out. I'll take you on my flying sword," the Goddess in Jade offered.
"Doesn't the city g...
We were quickly led past the crowd and up the stairs. Most of the crowd seemed to suddenly vanish before I could so much as look at them. Those who had spoken up against me were doing their best to...
2025-09-08 15:00:16 +0000 UTC View PostOh hell no.
I slammed the lid shut, and a wave of irritation ran through me. Just when I thought luck was smiling on me and my bloodline had led me to a lucky find, I wound up face to f...
The ship was remarkable on the inside. On a short walk, I discovered a replicator room, though maybe better called a replicator nexus. It resembled the Architect microwave-shaped unit I had install...
2025-09-05 15:00:23 +0000 UTC View PostNakano returned with Sakura and me to Crownhill. I had hoped to be the one to show him around, since I thought he'd be impressed, but Sakura seemed even more eager. In the end, I just tagged along ...
2025-09-03 15:00:14 +0000 UTC View Post"Hell yeah, go get him, Sharky!" I let out a whoop of joy as the spell I'd been gathering dissipated. There was no need for it now. I'd never seen anyone survive once Sharky had them in his jaws. M...
2025-09-01 15:00:22 +0000 UTC View PostI put away my notifications for reaching the peak of B-Grade for the moment. I would check out what the System had in mind for me when this crisis was over. The first thing I did was send a mental ...
2025-08-30 15:00:12 +0000 UTC View PostI checked in on Nakano and was glad to see he was all right. He'd torn off a table leg and was wielding it like a club. A few of the other guests were wielding chairs and tables, but most of them w...
2025-08-29 15:00:17 +0000 UTC View PostMy encounter with Walter was alarming. I needed to speak with Nakano about it as soon as I could. I arranged for a meeting the next chance I could and ended up seeing him for brunch.
"It's pr...
2025-08-27 15:00:16 +0000 UTC View PostI spent several days following the same pattern. First, I worked on the walls. When people showed up, I put them to work hauling debris and shoring up the outer defenses. If they helped, I shared f...
2025-08-25 15:00:16 +0000 UTC View PostBill helped me a bit longer. He brought up other people a few more times, and I realized pretty quickly what he was hinting at. He wasn't the only person living in the outskirts of the habitable re...
2025-08-23 15:00:14 +0000 UTC View PostI cleaned myself up in the shower. Sakura would join me in a bit once she got our living quarters for the next few days organized. I thought things were fine as they were, but after living in a cas...
2025-08-22 15:00:15 +0000 UTC View PostWhile waiting for Nakano to get his faction in order, I built something that had been on my mind for a long time. I’d redesigned it mentally several times during my little vacation to Onibushi, a...
2025-08-20 15:00:17 +0000 UTC View PostI waited for Takano to return, this time with Sakura’s father walking behind him. Nakano stood a bit taller than his father, though that might just have been the weight of age.
“Promise k...
2025-08-18 15:00:30 +0000 UTC View PostTakano’s sitting room had a carefully curated look to it, as though it was meant to appear both elegant and ancient. Several swords and other medieval weapons hung on the wall, each already out o...
2025-08-16 15:00:14 +0000 UTC View PostI knocked so as not to interrupt the father and daughter reunion too suddenly, but I opened the door right after.

2025-08-15 15:00:17 +0000 UTC View PostSakura had to be in the primary manor, but unlike the others, the actual wards and defenses would make this one far harder to break into. Many of their wards even extended into the shadowrealm to p...
2025-08-13 15:00:15 +0000 UTC View PostKogai really didn’t want to join us for our little trip, but we were pretty sure our odds of getting through the front doors would go up quite a bit by dragging him along, so we did so.

2025-08-11 15:00:15 +0000 UTC View PostI waited to see if anyone else would challenge me after my display of power, but the crowd was silent. A-Grades didn’t grow on trees, but one of them could have been watching the match in the sam...
