Yrelstromoz’s mind had been focused ever since she had realized the legitimate threat to her life. She had allowed her instincts and training to take over, believing in her innate power as a True Dragon. Old abilities, tactics, and skills she hadn’t used for decades had resurfaced in her mind, including some of the sure-fire strategies that ...
2025-10-27 12:15:34 +0000 UTC View PostDragons were known for a lot of things, but if one had to be named over any other, it was their unique signature attack. An attack that, rather famously, even possessed innate concepts, making it even more powerful. It was even one that all dragons had, which had no doubt helped make it something any who faced a dragon had to be prepared for. 2025-10-24 11:15:52 +0000 UTC View Post
As Jake stood under the oppressive aura of the True Dragon’s mana, he could only admit that their moniker as the strongest magical race was truly well-earned. The absolute display of might as all the orbs honed in on him made Jake’s danger sense explode, making him instantly realize that now was the time to be defensive.
All at once, t...

2025-10-22 11:13:37 +0000 UTC View PostJake wouldn’t say he was that experienced in dealing with healers. Usually, when he did encounter one, they were part of larger parties and significantly weaker than him as an individual. This allowed Jake to focus and kill the healer rather quickly before dealing with the rest of the party.
Thinking back, the only time Jake had...
2025-10-21 11:15:54 +0000 UTC View PostJake had approached the fight with an abundance of caution, far more so than usual. True Dragons held high esteem in his mind, and he wanted to show one the proper respect he believed they deserved.
His senses also let him know that Yrelstromoz was no doubt an incredibly powerful creature. All of that resulted in Jake not being too offensi...
2025-10-20 11:14:32 +0000 UTC View PostJake watched as the ritual hummed to life, and as it did, the unmistakable aura of a True Dragon rushed through the cave and out of its mouth as it flooded the mountainous terrain, scaring away the few elementals and whatnot living in the area.
It was a simple ritual that did little more than amplify the aura of whatever was inside it. Jak...
2025-10-17 11:13:59 +0000 UTC View PostJake watched from the other side of the large city as the True Dragon stayed at the table for a few moments before deciding to leave. He wondered if she planned on looking for him, but she just went to her room in the resort. Despite her frown, she seemed entirely unaffected by their interaction.
One could say that approaching her directly...

Oh, look, it’s book release day again!
Book 14 is out now on Kindle, so if you wish to relive the confrontation between gods and their Chosen, now is a great time! Or if you just want to support the release. I’m fine either way.
“Oh, I have, and let me tell you, she’s quite something,” Villy said, seeming almost too excited as he prepared himself to tell Jake all about the dragon he’d found for his Chosen to hunt. This thought was only further amplified as the snake god cleared his throat and stood up while looking at Jake with a serious gaze.

“Gonna go out on a limb and say it wasn’t that much different from the one the monsters on Earth h...
2025-10-13 11:18:02 +0000 UTC View PostJake let out a loud yawn as he finally awoke. Still feeling a little groggy, he sat up in the bed and stretched, the movement not really doing anything as he wasn’t actually sore or anything like that. He just liked how it felt.
Through his sphere, he saw that the house was empty, which disappointed him a little. He’d kind of hoped to ...
2025-10-10 11:19:29 +0000 UTC View PostJake finally exited his Soulspace and opened his eyes to the two gods. Both of them were looking at him as if they were trying to evaluate his state of mind or to see if he’d taken any soul damage, making Jake smile slightly.
“What a welcome party for someone who didn’t even go anywhere,” Jake said jokingly.
As he spoke, he v...
2025-10-09 11:14:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe Malefic Viper did have to agree that waiting for Jake to fully wake up wasn’t the most satisfying experience. Usually, he could at least get a sense of how Jake was doing, but in his current state, not even a Primordial could get a peek. Jake’s soul had gone somewhere only the system had authority, after all.
All he could thus do w...
2025-10-08 11:16:52 +0000 UTC View PostJake needed a moment to process that statement. The strongest faction in the multiverse back then, yet its representative was from a race Jake didn’t even recognize. What confused Jake even more was the good chance that this person was enlightened, and Villy had a track record back then of not really liking the enlightened, yet here he was wor...
2025-10-07 11:19:34 +0000 UTC View PostFrom deep within the Malefic Viper, Jake felt the internal stomach of Palate stir. Instantly, he knew that the Malefic Viper’s capacity far surpassed Jake’s own, which naturally wasn’t a mistake, seeing as one was comparing an A and a C-grade, but the difference still struck Jake as stark.
With time slowed, Jake felt the Malefic Vipe...
2025-10-06 11:15:07 +0000 UTC View PostThe reaction of the A-grades present in the auction halls was swift as they all exploded with power and rushed the stage. Two massive explosions of poison gas from the father and daughter pair obscured the stage, and when a mid-tier A-grade blew away the poison cloud with a powerful skill, it was revealed that the Eye of the Magus was gone.

As he was sitting there, a female beastkin approached him with a smile on her face. “Sorry I was late; you know how my old man can be.”
“Hey, it’s your w...
2025-10-02 11:18:41 +0000 UTC View PostIt had been well over a month since the beginning. The Viper’s avatar and Artemis found themselves observing the meditating Jake once more, having both spent a lot of time there recently, especially in the last few days. Throughout this time, Artemis had grown increasingly nervous, and while Vilas maintained his calm demeanor, he admitted to a...
2025-10-01 11:22:05 +0000 UTC View PostJake looked at the First Sage for several moments, wondering if he was even seeing right. His still-muddled mind told him that this was indeed the visage of the First Sage, yet it also felt slightly off.
The old man didn’t have any aura but seemed to be nothing more than a loose collection of energy and Records. This wasn’t like the vi...
2025-09-30 11:21:19 +0000 UTC View Post“That’s just weird, not necessarily suspicious,” Vilas shrugged. “Then again, it could be so weird that it’s purposefully done to throw us off her scent.”
Eversmile looked less than amused at the Viper having some fun with the most recent reports of the thousand students who attended Jake’s lesson. One of the women who’d at...
2025-09-29 11:21:47 +0000 UTC View PostFollowing the one thousand people who had participated in Jake’s lesson within his Order proved more interesting than Vilas had first expected. Initially, he had only looked for any suspicious activity, but it had inadvertently turned into a study of the effects of Jake-exposure.
It was entirely expected that even if there was something ...
2025-09-26 11:16:23 +0000 UTC View PostJake truly had no way of telling what would come first. On the one hand, he saw daily improvements to his poison crafting, while on the other, he felt as if he was on the precipice of finally having that all-defining realization that would allow him to upgrade his Meditate skill.
One was a slow and steady process of incremental improvement...

The Viper was silent for several moments as he considered Jake’s question before he spoke.
“Again, that’s a complicated question,” the Viper said, less jokingly this time around. “I would say, considering everything, you did very well. It was your first time teaching a class like that, and you got through it pretty decently, and ...
2025-09-23 11:10:17 +0000 UTC View PostJake woke up a few hours later, having gotten in a good nap to recharge his mind. He still felt oddly tired, but he reckoned things would return to normal sooner rather than later. One thing was for sure: teaching that lesson had taken far more out of Jake than he had expected, and he definitely found life-and-death battles far less stressful. 2025-09-22 11:20:34 +0000 UTC View Post
Mental fortitude wasn’t a stat in the system, even if it was most certainly empowered by Willpower. Yet it remained extremely important and was a trait many factions sought to train their young talents in, as it was so important for reaching the peak.
The way one usually trained mental fortitude was to experience highly distressing situa...
2025-09-19 11:14:26 +0000 UTC View PostJake watched the already filled-to-the-brim auditorium, his back feeling particularly sweaty at the sight. He saw the excitement of the attendees as they chatted among themselves, all of them full of smiles as they socialized.
He was genuinely surprised at the diversity of races and factions who would be attending, even though he had been ...
2025-09-18 11:23:10 +0000 UTC View Post“So you’ve decided to keep him in the dark?” the Primordial asked as he looked at the Viper with a smile.
“Hey, while I have some confidence in Jake’s acting skills, I’m far more confident he’ll prove himself a better actor when he doesn’t know,” Vilastromoz shrugged. “What I said wasn’t untrue either. This will be he...
2025-09-17 11:14:51 +0000 UTC View PostJake glared at the man sitting opposite him, his gaze very much communicating his murderous intent. Meanwhile, the other party didn’t seem to care in the slightest, but happily took another swig of his beer.
