Chapter 50

(Quick heads up – someone on RR pointed out Russians have patronyms as middle names, and the last name I was using for Maksim, Igorevna, means daughter of Igor.  I went back and fixed this.&...

Chapter 49

Occasionally, something like this would happen.  Dan tried not to have a routine.  After so long, just as he was good at predicting what Asmodon would do, the demon was able to do the sam...

Chapter 48

All my team besides Dan started using their allotted time in the Sanctuary of Revelations and began working on their Spirit Nexus. 

That whole building is surrounded by doors.  Ther...

Chapter 47

(WARNING!!!: This chapter contains horrible sexual assault and other terrible atrocities you really may want to skip.  It’s safe to read up to where the term ‘blackout drunk’ is mentione...

Chapter 46

Oh, I should probably tell you that the last guy wanted for murder was dead.  I knew that, but none of the participants did. 

It’s not really important but since I’m catching up...

Chapter 45

That fat prick looked like he was in real trouble now!  I had no idea what the flower thing was, but it looked like it was shocking the shit out of him.  I saw it the last time Dan was th...

Chapter 44

Dan could just wait for the Sortilege monsters to disappear from the Crucible area.  He was still going back there though.  For a few reasons.

As he told Ace, he had started regulat...

Chapter 43

What’s the marriage situation like where you come from?

[What?  Why?]

Just wondering.  When I was still in my brood, marriage wasn’t even a thing in my layer.  Not re...

Chapter 42

Dan’s vision in his one good eye kept blurring and threatening to stop working.  Things would get dark for a moment.  He’d think that was it, and he was blind, but then his eye would ...

Chapter 41

Yeah.  I have no idea how he broke out of that stun.  Pretty impressive though. 

Dan jumped to the side and rolled away, somehow managing to avoid most of what was coming at hi...

Chapter 40

Ha!  We had that fat idiot now!  By the stupid look of despair on his dumb face, I could tell he knew he was a dead man too. 

Bob and Az’ga bet me that he’d turn tail and r...

Chapter 39

Dan knew Lilith wasn’t in her true form.  She had taken on a form mortal men found irresistible.

This form was young and had perfect and radiant olive-colored skin.  Her eyes were...

Chapter 38

Dan hoped he was making the right decisions.  Retraining his mind to his new reality would take some time. 

He had thought about only gaining one level and stopping at 21.  Tha...

Chapter 37*

The next morning after the usual routine – exercise, meditation and reflection, and breakfast – the parties were reformed back to how they were originally. 

Dan told everyone to alwa...

Chapter 36 *

When Dan got back, only Austin was dicking around.  Everyone else was doing something productive such as working together on tactics and performing mock battles. 

Dan had another sh...

Chapter 35

Just in case you’re wondering, I’ve been trying to think of a name for worlds making it the full cycle as Earth did, like I have for garbage and turd worlds.  I’d rather not use another ...

Chapter 34

Dan asked my other team members, “What Trial did y’all want to do next?”

“Agility Trial,” quickly declared Leena.  “I know I can get SS.”

“Don’t feel pressure to ...

Chapter 33

Amanda laughed and kissed Dan’s nose again.  “Daddy, you gotta dodge now.”

With regret, Dan forced himself back to reality and immediately dove out of the way of a lance beam. ...

Chapter 32

Dan threw the corpses in the Trial when it opened.  To hide his foul deed from other participants.  Or maybe he was just tidy.

[It sounded like he wanted the men to attack him. ...

Chapter 31

Dan had well over an hour to kill before meeting up with those two I told you about, Dotty and Andrew. 

He ended up running through the Trial of the Rapture again.  Then he meditate...

Chapter 30

Did you notice it?

[What?]

The Limitless Trait.  Remember, I said Dan purchased Efficient with his token.

[I noticed.]

I’ve never heard of anything like that.  T...

Chapter 29*

(Warning: this chapter contains talk of self harm.)

“I told Marisol where I’d be for the night,” Dan told Millie.  “I stormed out.  She was freaking out at me ...

Chapter 28

I have a knack for remembering conversations.  I could do the accents and speak very much like these mortals do, but I would never stoop to such levels of depravity.  I articulate gonna a...

Chapter 27

Dan felt a little out of whack since he didn’t get the chance to really meditate and reflect on his revelation.  Leena ruined the time he always set aside for that.  Even Asmodon had le...

Chapter 26

Since Dan only had a couple hours of sleep and got up without complaining, Ace, Chet, and Nick tried following his example. 

Becky sent Bonnie over to him with another flower.  The ...

Chapter 25

At the high-pantheon shrines, Dan didn’t even bother kneeling which is considered very disrespectful.

While standing, he said, “If what the Trial in the Boneyard says is true, it’s all ...

Chapter 24*

Dan was still wound up from thinking his brother and all the people in his tutorial area were killed by a third Sortilege.

And talking to that big group of people before that.  He knew h...

Chapter 23

Dan didn’t look around inside the Mausoleum of Bak’ung.  Not even at the giant ax in the middle of the antechamber, and that ax is super cool.  There’s a ton of cool shit in there.&...

Chapter 22

Dan didn’t leave the tutorial area right away.  At the exit, he used the Orbment-Effect Charm on SUMMON INFERNAL.  I’m always interested in seeing what those’ll do.
