Vahn spent a few minutes stroking the [Nameless] Wyvern before turning it into a magic core and safely storing it away inside his Inventory. He had already decided on a name for it in the past but intended to put it off until discussing it with Loki. Riveria also wanted to be able to witness one of the evolutions brought …

The return trip to the 39th Floor was relatively uneventful, considering that the majority of the trip made use of the secret passages that allowed the group to travel without coming across any enemies. Fenrir had picked up a few scents along the way, which Vahn contemplated having her follow in the future in order to find the Xenos, but …

Rufina ended up eating several times more than normal, causing Vahn to give her a once-over just to see where she put it all. He noticed that her metabolic processes were several times more efficient than normal and her body seemed to store the excess energy in her muscles. It wasn’t nearly at the level of someone like Fenrir, who …

Vahn had never dealt with someone that had amnesia before, but he imagined it wouldn’t be an easy thing for most people to simply ‘accept’. The fact that Revis seemed to believe him outright was somewhat strange but Vahn could tell she wasn’t trying to trick him, as the original Revis didn’t really seem capable of such a high level …

Revis stared blankly at Vahn for several seconds as her frown continued to become progressively deeper. Through clenched teeth, she asked, “What do you mean ‘save’…? What makes you think I need your f****** help, you brat…?” Though her words were harsh, Vahn didn’t miss the subtle change in Revis’ eyes, filled with a great deal of indignation and, as …

Vahn continued to inspect Reid, contemplating waking the man up since it was unlikely for the situation to have been resolved so easily. There was a nagging feeling in the back of his mind telling him things were only going to escalate. Not only did they need to make some changes to the structure of Lil Geirr, but Vahn needed …

Fenrir continued to lead the way, making quick progress through the relative safety of the secret passage while Asfi explained, “Though the Dungeon changes its layout on occasion, there are some areas that clearly retain their basic structure. If you take measurements in the area, you’ll find that the flow of mana within the walls of that area is more …

Every day that passed made Vahn feel more antsy, something that had been noted by Finn as they were sitting in the Central Command Room discussing his coming departure. Finn was more than a little aware of Vahn’s concerns since one of the expecting was the goddess of his own Familia. He listened to Vahn’s plan of action, showing a …

Time passed in a flash and, before Vahn realized it, nearly six weeks had come and gone as he split his time between setting up wards, inspecting the constructions sites, and helping the girls train. Asfi had eventually made her move, a few days after his ‘all-out’ spar against Ais, using a strange magic item that allowed her to become …

After his ‘spar’ with Ais, Vahn spent a little over an hour recovering, making conversation with the girls and turning away anyone that came to investigate the earlier fight. Turning into lightning, for lack of a better descriptive, was very flashy after all. Ais’ attacks could also be seen from tens of kilometers away so it wasn’t too surprising that …
