A/N: Hey all. There probably won't be a bonus this week. A bit too tired and I got another round of edits to get through. We'll see how it goes, but prolly won't happen.
Hope you enjoy this one! See you tomorrow

The impact against the lord happened faster and more powerfully that Ethan had expected. He’d been so focused on hitting the mark that he didn’t really consider the impact itself much but at least, he’d gotten a good landing.
Ethan dropped on the lord of the swamp ...

Henry stared vacantly at the reef ahead as all of his focus—and Octominds—worked on channeling enough mana into triggering the recalling Blink. While his Octominds focused on increasing their mana absorption and regeneration through meditation and Draining Touch, Henry tas...
2025-02-27 04:27:03 +0000 UTC View PostEthan scratched his head as he scanned the three trait options proposed to him.
So here’s the deal. While the Harvester’s dagger netted me a few spellcores and primagems, I can still get them with just luck. And while this is still not a 100% sure-thing, it seems that if something’s high enough level, there’s higher odds of it dropping something. Maybe. I got two primagems fro...
2025-02-23 04:05:08 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Hope you like these two! Next one is out in a couple of seconds.
Dev Edit:
In the past, I had the number of spellforms of an Arcanum tied to its tier. (not to be confused with the 3 prime forms). It was a bit obscure and non-intuitive, so I’m changing that so it becomes just like capacity. Both Arcanums (wands) start with a spellform limit of 1, and it has to be upgrade...
2025-02-23 04:04:47 +0000 UTC View PostWhat the title says. If I don't manage to finish it tonight, it'll be out tomorrow. Also this week's bonus is Scorching.
Back to work!

He was weary. Mentally, of course. Neither his soul nor body were easy to tire, nowadays, but stats did not do much to the weight and scarring the decades left in their wake.
Zerathstra sighed and opened his eyes. The ocean stretched in a...
2025-02-22 00:54:15 +0000 UTC View PostEthan cursed. Not because of the two monitors blocking his way in this wider stretch of the cave network, but because of the thinner trail of blood he was seeing. He hoped it meant the lord was bleeding out, but it might also be that the wound was closing up. Which meant he really didn’t have a lot of time to waste.
After quickly dispatching the cave monitors, Ethan continued following ...

After saying goodbye to Rocky near his usual haunt, Henry and Maurice approached the Otodus sharks’ territory in a grim but still resolute mood. What had transpired had been a surprise, sure, but it had never been fully unexpected. Both of them—and Henry to a greater degree—had alw...

All Henry could sense was pain and roiling rage. The wounds refused to close up, re-opening as soon as he’d healed them, and he had to work on them one by one, bringing in his improved focus from the Octominds while simultaneously adding in bits of Vitality Aspect here and there. He knew he could take his time. He’d sensed Zerathstra arrive...

It was an odd feeling to be hit by a wall of scaly muscles while channeling the literal concept of a Juggernaut. Ethan felt the incredible strength slamming into him with such an impact he thought even metal would dent under such tremendous power. But it did nothing to his flight or trajectory. In fact, he kept flying toward the throat of the lord , a...
2025-02-20 03:20:14 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Chapter almost got delayed through no fault of my own! There's a blizzard here and I lost power for like... ten minutes. Which was lucky. I thought I might be out for hours, if not a day or two.
Anyway, chapter's out! See you Wednesday!

The lobster stared upward for a few incredibly long seconds, claws crackling with barely contained lightning while Henry prepared to run for it. If the creature so much as put one of its many legs forward, he was out of there, and he wasn’t stopping until he got back to Thalis. But to his surprise, th...
2025-02-16 03:07:06 +0000 UTC View PostHey folks, long story short, I didn't manage to finish today's chapter for Undersea because I'm running on like 3 hours of sleep (insomnia), but I'll try to have it up tomorrow along with the bonus. Sorry for the delay!

The dagger, still held by a glowing white thread flashed toward his neck and just like Edwin had done, Ethan dodged at the last minute, bending his knees for a fraction of a second as the blade whistled ove...
2025-02-15 02:50:05 +0000 UTC View PostThe roar echoed in the space, somewhat amplified by the cave itself. Stalagmite broke away from the ceiling, the sound of their crashing barely audible over the cacophony of roars. The call lasted nearly for a full five seconds and as soon as it quieted down, more and more calls resounded from the large tunnel. Even the single surviving monitor next to him froze for a moment before it began thr...
2025-02-14 02:59:50 +0000 UTC View PostRocky led the way, swimming swiftly along the sandy sea floor and after a few minutes, he led them back into the canyon before he dipped down in the depth.
We’re getting pretty far from Thalis, Henry thought with a bit of concern. He still had the anchor Zerathstra had given him to find his way back, but bit by bit, the way back was becoming harder and harder to recall. On his ...
2025-02-14 02:59:35 +0000 UTC View PostTheir steps echoed as they approached the dark stretch of the tunnel and already, Ethan could see pieces of displaced and smashed crystals littering the ground nearby, confirming that someone had messed with the lighting. Someone who might benefit from having more shadow and darkness to jump out of. But they weren’t encountering any threads, even though there had been plenty outside.
After having found a nice cave to hide, Henry left Maurice and Rocky to their chatting and began with a meal. Specifically, a nice, still bloody piece of Thunedermaw kraken.

It was building up in his chest. Now that he’d approached this state so many times, he realized that the first time had not been the real deal. He didn’t have the exact words for it, but if he were to compare it to anything, it might have been something like a partial combustion. Like ...

Ember hopped over a rotting trunk, sniffed the ground once more and without a word, continued forging ahead. It was still daylight, exactly like it had been nearly an hour and half ago when he’d gone to sleep and as he gazed ahead, Ethan could already make out the gray mountain wall...

It didn’t take long for the threat that had spooked the Stoneclad kraken to show up and somehow, Henry was not surprised. Of course, if this area had one kraken, it had a higher chance of having a second kraken, and in this scenario, it had second and a third.
Another breeding ground isn’t...

Henry’s clone froze as he recognized the being below him. It took him a second, at first, but when he saw the stone-ridge yellow eyes, and when the rock-like arms slowly unfurled, there was no more doubt, and even Identify did not struggle to...
2025-02-07 03:16:42 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Dev edit: This is the last trait selected. It was a bit too weak before (only 10%), and the Essence generation was a bit of a secret side effect, but no need to keep it hidden. Also buffed recharge time.

2025-02-06 04:12:30 +0000 UTC View PostStill hiding within the network of caves while his clones patrolled the area for dangers and opportunities, Henry pulled up his rewards from all of this tuna fishing and met his first question: did he convert everything to tokens and upgrade everything he could upgrade, or did he reserve some for levels?
Wait… that’s not all. I could afford some stat points as well.

With Maurice still secure in his arm, Henry carefully swam away along a wall of bare, jagged rock, and as he did, a strange thought came to him; how incredibly quiet the sea was. Especially when compared to the two weeks he’d spent above, and considering the literal thousands of tons of ...
