Tier 3+ - Accidental Champion (Book 2) - Chapter 60 - Bearded Menace
Howard gripped the haft of his double-bearded axe. The weight of it felt perfect in his hand. When he’d purchased it, he’d gone right ahead and gotten the Axe Mastery skill, using one of the two skill points he’d received from the loot box after the fifth floor.
Previously, he’d been training with a sword, but the sword had never felt right to him. Never felt natural. Not like he ...

Xavier stood in the Staging Room, a hand on the glowing crystal atop the pedestal that was the System Shop’s terminal. Charon’s Scythe appeared in his hand in an instant.
“Whoa.”
The change was miraculous. The second the scythe staff was within his hand, two of his attribute’s reached new thresholds of power. His willpower and his spirit. They were already his two most pow...

One of the Lord of the Endless Horde’s Storage Rings had broken, and all of its contents had been destroyed. Xavier ran a hand through his hair. He couldn’t begin to imagine how much wealth must have been stored in that one little ring. How many items. How many spirit coins.
And now it was all simply… gone.
“What happened?” Howard asked. The man had a raised eyebrow. Must ...

You have gained 1 Mastery Point (E Grade).
You have gained 100,000 Lesser Spirit Coins.

Xavier tried to hold back his sigh. Two skill points wasn’t bad. He’d long ago found out how hel...

Tier 3+ - Accidental Champion (Book 2) - Chapter 54 - Insidious
Xavier shifted where he sat, fidgety and giddy with excitement. After all the carnage he’d inflicted upon his enemies, perhaps his mood should have been a bit more sombre.
I did what I did because I needed to, he thought. And I saved Queen Alastea from a fate she didn’t deserve, even if I didn’t get to see her in the end.
And he accomplished something no one ...

Someone slammed into Xavier the moment he appeared in the Staging Room.
Siobhan wrapped him in a tight, but brief, embrace. “You’re alive!” She stepped back, cleared her throat. “We… we thought you might die out there.”
“We saw you leap through that portal,” Howard said. “What on Earth were you thinking?”
Xavier rubbed the back of his head. “Well, I wasn...

Xavier went for the man’s neck.
The Lord of the Endless Horde lay upon a ground of rubble. It wasn’t just the metal and glass of these strange skyscrapers, stone and wood and dust and splinters had poured out of the innards when the building had fallen.
The D Grade Denizen had been weakened. Once, he had been the most powerful being in the entire sector. Now, all three of his co...

At the prow of the last remaining flying ship above the floating Lord of the Endless Horde, Xavier steeled himself and stood his ground. A strong wind blew in, flapping the sleeves of his robes, pulling the dark hood back to rest on his upper back.
Xavier had a plan. But if he was strong—if the plan failed—he would die in the next second.
He didn’t know if what he was about to...

On the Lord of the Endless Horde’s home world, Xavier leapt.
Behind him, a building was falling. In front of him, a powerful D Grade Denizen stood. The man’s mind was captured. In control. The crack in his mental defences, after being hit by a five-hundred infused Spirit Break, had become large enough for Xavier’s control to slip in.

The next few minutes were a whirlwind of pain.
The Lord of the Endless Horde’s smile grew more and more sinister as the fight went on. Xavier continued to cast spells at the golden barrier, hoping that his Magical Damage skill would rank up, but nothing at all was coming from it. The barrier flickered, more and more, but Xavier quickly realised the damage he was inflicting upon it wasn...

Several notifications popped up in Xavier’s vision at once, all while he stood across from the Lord of the Endless Horde, speaking taunts at the most powerful Denizen he’d ever faced.

Xavier burst into action before the Lord of the Endless Horde could make the first move. His soulkeeping reserve was full with almost two thousand souls, but there was no one around him that he could easily kill—the alleyway was deserted.
Part of him wanted to drop a fully infused Soul Strike at his D Grade enemy, but if that wasn’t enough he wouldn’t be able to use Soul Block.

Xavier opened his eyes in a flash.
He was lying on the cold, hard stone of the alleyway he’d ran to. He felt no pain anymore. It looked as though his body hadn’t been attacked while he’d been unconscious.
His body, mind, and soul was whole again.
The impurities the System had detected, everything that he’d assimilated into his body to gain more power, more attributes. ...

Xavier floated in darkness. Or stood in it. Honestly, he wasn’t really sure. This feeling was a familiar one, however. It reminded him of the room he’d been taken to when the System had begun integrating Earth. Black. Formless. Unending.

Tier 3+ - Accidental Champion (Book 2) - Chapter 43 - An Absolute Massacre
Corpses littered the ground around Xavier. In minutes, he’d killed several hundred thousand enemies. His levels had ticked up, and up, and up with every strike. At first, he gained three levels per Soul Strike, then two, until finally each strike garnered him only one.
Only.
The very thought of a single spell “only” gaining him one level almost made him chuckle, but c...

Xavier took ten more hits after he’d landed on the stone ground. Arrows slammed into his shoulder, back, legs. Fireballs exploded in his face and lightning bolts made his entire body shudder. His Soul Block should have been enough to stop the strikes around him, but the massive number of attacks that had come his way burned right through it, and he wasn’t able to cast another until the cool...

Heavy rain pelted down from the sky. Lightning flashed and thunder boomed. The storm was violent and all encompassing, yet still the noise of the Endless Horde overpowered it.
Xavier whipped his head left and right, eyeing the different portals in the area. He couldn’t see the portals behind the castle. Didn’t know exactly how many there were. At the far back ranks of the Endless Hord...

Xavier quickly realised that what he had on his hands was a damned math problem.
At the rate he was gaining Mastery Points, he would need to kill over nine hundred E Grade enemies. It might even be more, though that was difficult to know. Though each level he gained needed more Mastery Points than the last, he usually gained more Mastery Points from each new E Grade he faced, as they tend...

Xavier had thought he’d been pushing himself as hard as he could go. He’d thought he’d been testing and stretching his limits more than perhaps anyone else ever had.
He’d been wrong.
With each new wave that came, Xavier made more and more progress.

Clouds drifted in front of the moon, further dimming the darkness of the night. Xavier held one of the Elemental Hydra’s fangs between his thumb and forefinger. Moving it left and right in the torch’s light. He didn’t need the torchlight to see—he saw plenty well in the dark these days. But it did help him see the details.
The fang was whiter than he’d imagined it would be. He h...

“Xavier!” Hands shook his shoulders. He barely registered them. Barely registered his name being called. “Xavier! The wave has started!”
All Xavier could do was stare at the notification he’d just received.
F Grade Denizen’s muscular structure considered volatile.
He stared at the countdown timer. It kept ticking down, and down, and down.

Xavier released a grunt of pain as the hydra fang shard slid down his throat. Far stronger than the Wolven Fang and Wolven Claw, the shard easily sliced him up, leaving blood pouring from the cuts.
He swallowed several times, knowing the wounds shouldn’t take long to heal, briefly wondering if the damned Elemental Hydra had been venomous on top of everything else.

For a moment, Xavier thought he might be hallucinating.
The first enemy he saw as he climbed out of that hole in the ground was a soldier with a scraggly beard smoking… a pipe? The man was backing away, eyes wide, the pipe sagging from his mouth.
The man had a spear resting on his shoulder. He shrugged it up, spinning it until the blade faced Xavier.
Xavier sighed. He tried ...
