Chapter 192

Nym found it much harder to focus over the next day or two. Every time he repeated this process, he had to incorporate new elements into his being and make terms with them. His first echo had been ...

Chapter 68

A second day of hunting saw Luke rise up to level 23. He was frustrated though, because he’d wasted a lot of his time discussing skill options with System. Trying to pry useful information out of...

Chapter 191

Nym didn’t even try to force a teleport out of Rizin’s den. When he felt he was ready, he simply asked the fox to transport him out. They appeared on the slope of a snow-covered mountain, much ...

Chapter 67

The mountains had been a fantastic source of monsters for Luke to hunt, just based on his brief time spent scouring them before he’d ventured into Valtira. Landston was in the opposite direction,...

Chapter 190

It did not take Rizin long to confirm Nym’s story. “Looks like they’re fighting,” he said. “And making a huge mess in the process.”

“Who’s ‘they?’” Nym asked.

“A...

Chapter 66

The effects of the first [Life Surge] hadn’t hit Luke too hard. He’d been tired, but it turned out the effects of regular, full meals did a lot to mitigate the insane amounts o...

Chapter 189

Nym was ready to finish recruiting his last two echoes, but Ferro didn’t answer when called, and Niramyn wasn’t even worth asking. He showed up on his own terms, and he reminded Nym more of the...

Chapter 65

Before he’d gained skills that moved his body for him in battle, Luke might have been surprised at being attacked from behind. Well, probably not in this case, since obviously the church wasn’t...

Chapter 188

The world was, for all intents and purposes, standing still while Nym did his best to become someone who could survive the incoming storm. He’d completely lost track of how long he’d been trapp...

Chapter 64

Zea told herself that she wasn’t committing to anything when she bought the bag. It was only sensible to have something like that, especially considering she was still kind of homeless. She had a...

Chapter 63

The way Luke saw it, they’d either wandered into something meant for someone else and Myla was completely innocent of any malicious intent, or she’d led him into a trap on purpose and was an ex...

Chapter 187

The red books were, if anything, even more dull and tedious than the blue ones had been, but there weren’t quite as many of them. More importantly, since they’d fused together, Nym’s mental p...

Chapter 62

Three days was the earliest Sideon was willing to go on a match between Aldrick and Zammin. He wasn’t wrong to take that stance, since the longer they hyped it up, the better the turnout would be...

Chapter 186

The spell to connect to his reality echo was based at its core upon the idea of the conduit. It was just modified so heavily as to be practically unrecognizable. Nym and Ferro ended up on an isolat...

Chapter 61

Luke had a goal, and he was going to keep moving towards it, but he knew himself well enough to know that if he didn’t take care of himself along the way, he’d crash and burn long before he hit...

Chapter 60

Despite his earlier predictions that he wouldn’t want to buy a nice harness when he could simply make his own with his [Leatherworking]skill, Luke had to admit that the stuff Don...

Chapter 185

It was hard to keep track of time, subjective linear or otherwise, while embedded in Niramyn’s sanctuary. Nym didn’t think his physical body even existed right now; he was just a mind puppeteer...

Chapter 59

Author's Note: I screwed up on RR and accidentally posted chapter 29 instead of 28.  So since they got 2 chapters today after I fixed it and added 28 in, you guys are getting 2 chapters too. 2023-02-28 18:01:22 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 58

“You need to stop using that skill if you want to save any money up,” Zea said as she watched Luke stuff some food into his bag.

Luke shrugged, bit down into an apple, and held it with hi...

Chapter 184

Ascendants didn’t bother with things like light, Nym supposed. He was in a lavishly decorated bedroom, which included an entire wall of shelves filled with books, an oversized writing desk, the m...

Chapter 57

Shopping wasn’t really Luke’s thing. Luckily for him, Zea seemed to know exactly what she was looking for. He had no idea what it was, but he dutifully followed along behind her until she ventu...

Chapter 56

Zea and Zammin sat at one of the tables with the adjustable height chairs with a pair of mugs in front of them. She didn’t drink very often, both because she couldn’t afford it and because she ...

Chapter 183

Time didn’t have any meaning to Nym anymore. He was aware of it, conceptually, and he remembered experiencing it first hand, but couldn’t reconcile those memories with his new state of existenc...

Chapter 55

Luke woke up to find Zea practically lying on top of him and snoring softly. It wasn’t possible to slide out of bed without moving her, but, well, he really needed to pee. She groaned softly when...

Chapter 54

Luke laid on the floor and stared up at the ceiling while Zea sat on the bed. He’d gotten a meal on his way out of the Harbor, then stopped at a street vendor for a second one while following Zea...

Chapter 53

The first thing Luke did when he woke back up was panic over the notification he’d received right before passing out. He was afraid he’d killed Kalishka, but as soon as he checked it, that fear...

Chapter 52

Kalishka didn’t waste a second in closing the distance. She led with an outstretched hand, and only [Twitch Reflexes] kept Luke out of the way. He faded back and sidestepped her ...

Chapter 182

Niramyn was forging a conduit to the Transcendence layer even before he opened his eyes and spinning out the wild, thrumming arcana into four separate spells at once. A second passed, and the first...

Chapter 51

Author's Note: I have been saying this on Royal Road for about two weeks now, but forgot to ever mention it here. Now that the initial chapter push is done, and since I am still writing two project...

Chapter 181

Author Note: Here we go guys. The big arc. Stay with me here, stuff is about to get shaken up.

Nym found himself a nice mountain peak far away from any sort of civilization, settl...
