chapter 172: playing dirty

For my second fight, I was rather surprised to see that I had been paired up with another of the new Keepers. Things had become a bit more random now, as some of the other new ones that remained were being paired with veterans. Though, more importantly, the new Keeper I was paired up with was the same one that …

chapter 171: destruction

Once I saw the card magic system as an option listed in this game, I couldn’t help but somewhat give up on my ideas of winning. Not because it made me less confident in my chances, but because I felt the urge to experience what the card magic would be like once it reached a level usable in the games. …

chapter 170: a tournament of champions

This time, I knew more of what I was doing than the first time that I had been to one of these meetings. As the Keepers began to file into the gaming area, I took a closer look at the names on each door. With the knowledge of the games that can be bought on the market, I knew a …

chapter 169: reunions

For the last two days that I was waiting for the meeting, I spent most of them hanging out with the others. As I had suspected, the girls were just avoiding me to keep who was going with me as a surprise, and let me prepare in the meantime… Once Bihena revealed herself as the person accompanying me to the …

chapter 168: threadbare preparations

After talking with Alkahest, I set the time on Earth to flow normally. What I needed to do now was to practice my Thousand Arms, Ten Thousand Threads martial art. Since it was available on the market, I had to assume that other Keepers had also used it, or something similar to it, in order to bring their mentality closer …

chapter 166: alme dien

When I got back to my room, to my surprise I found Terra sitting on the bed. However, her usual playful demeanor was nowhere to be seen, and instead she had a more serious, troubled look on her face. “What’s wrong?” I asked as I moved over to sit next to her, and her tail came up to gently land …

chapter 165: the foundry

Now that I had gotten a glimpse into the relationship between the elves, beastkin, and the dwarves, I was ready to begin another spree of fast forwarding. There was still a long ways left to go before the world was ready to be connected to the others, and not all that much to do until then. Yes, I could put …

chapter 164: everything has its price

As I walked towards Feradin, I began adjusting my levels, practicing something that I hadn’t really tried yet. Rather than fully unlock one class, I practiced on only unlocking a portion of the class in order to control my level more effectively. This way, I wouldn’t just always come across as the best of one field. And more importantly, my …

chapter 163: to review the races

Out of the thirty-eight systems that the deities were submitting, all but one managed to make it through to the system. It seemed that one was actually submitted by someone else before Terra delivered the papers to me. However, the system that couldn’t be submitted was merely one to create a new class for the afterlife, one which would cause …
