[Removed for Amazon] Quest Academy: Legions (Chapters 12, 13 and 14)

New Chapters. New Chair. Audio releases tomorrow!

Hey Everyone,

Remember when I was complaining about not having a writing chair? I accidentally complained in a group of three problem solvers that not only drove me to Staples to get me a chair, they even assembled it. I must be incredibly annoying when I complain. But, this means that I'm hopeful of 4-5 chapters next week, so fingers crossed.

Like I said last week, this is going to be a 3 chapter week since we had a lot of events lined up in Florida. I'll be back in Ireland on the 9th of February, and we'll be getting a lot of chapters done then.

Just wanted to say a massive thank you also to everyone that's been supporting me over on Reddit. I've seen more people adding comments from the Patreon and I love seeing it.

Audiobook release is tomorrow for Book 3, and I can't wait to see what people think of it. If you're one of the people picking it up, please do let me know. :)

I'll likely be making a post tomorrow for the Audio. I'm terrible at social media, so if you see me out in the wild struggling, a like or an upvote would be very appreciated. :D

Hope you enjoy the chapters!

Brian

[3 compatible users found] [Closest Synchro Rate: 97%] "Four?" I am confused is it 3 or four? I might be missing context on how the number could be different. Also consistency on numbers, either stick to the 3 or 4 or type three or four, mixing them like this can possibly bother some readers, this is just fyi so do with it what you will...

Daniel Alexander Womack

I convert the chapters to epub via online converters and then use an app on my phone

Hayden

I think I enjoy the parts where he is crafting absolutely cool stuff the most.

Rinalda13

I agree. Barry's part in that was perfect. I want to like Brophy as well. I just don't know if it's really possible. He avoids dealing with counciling. He's learned how to "play the game" with older hunters. He's probably been doing it his while life. Hopefully Robert can do some good for him but who really knows.

Chris Hoopes

Same

Thylayb 1970

Ok, just heard Divinity say Roberts a good guy. Sorry.

Dawn Zeleznik

Almost done listening to the audio book and I have to say the way they portray Barry egging Brophy on- the whole it’s not Sal’s job to fix you thing, is probably my favorite part. I still want to like Brophy even though he has many problems.

Dawn Zeleznik

Did she say Robert was a great guy or Chatfield? I know she says Chatfield is the “best of them” if given the opportunity.

Dawn Zeleznik

I add them to my kindle library, it has an option to automatically convert them to a ebook

Bill

every book from now on need a Petro quote hahahaha

Kiwi

this quote from Petro lives in my head rent free and while I'm sitting at work i just laugh cause it gets me every time: "Okay, I'm not liking this trauma bonding. Can we get back to beating up our son, please?"

Kiwi

i really hope i am wrong and she is a good person and not a bad guy set up for a twist later.

Kiwi

No it needs Divinity (especially because i think she and Barry balance each other nicely), she just needs to learn to stop trying to manipulate people into the perfect future she wants and she will be fine, she is to reliant on her powers and not living in the moment. What concerns me most about Divinity is she said Robert is a great guy but both Sophia, Petro and Luke from the Dragoons say he cant really be fully trusted so it makes me think Divinity isn't all she says she is. was her meeting Sal the way she did planned and thought out?

Kiwi

Love your books, was wondering if you were going to change the memberships to be able to be a character in the future?

Matthew

I do t know i kinda like the image of a Sophia Burrito. Reminds of a kitten burrito 😆

Fortunis

I actually don't even know if I see Sal going for any licensing exams. He's a guild leader himself, and even if he wasn't he wouldn't need licenses to be hirable.

Zeletavska

Psionic blockers don't seem too rare since the Argento's were able to source some that readily. If anyone were to give a reaction, I'd like to see Erika's tbh. Neuro's probably used to them or wouldn't be surprised a prodigy crafter would have one.

Zeletavska

In earlier books when Sal copied Divinity's ability he figured out that when Divinity's weave no longer has inefficiencies, her ability should include a manifestation of angelic wings. When he used her skill himself actually he was able to manifest a pair.

Zeletavska

I just use acrobat reader and have it read aloud tool

nin10do

Hi everyone I’m new (just signed up after book 3 audiobook) is every chapter PDF? It’s a lot harder to read on phone. What app do you guys use to read the chapters?

BloodStorm

I reckon it will either help with the elixir machine or (and this is my hope) it will be a healing weave that can be put onto a bracelet or something. That way there won’t a Sophia burrito. 😂

Kiwi

Kraken will kick your "butt"

John Duncan

Listening book one halfway through going listen to them all including first drafts so far.

nin10do

i hate to say it but i feel like the story is just better when divinity is not part of it.

Rishain

Ok holy shit. How the hell did he miss the whole "it's a weave for items" thing? Because holy shit. If he can give a suit of armor, a ring, a necklace, literally anything the skill weaves he's perfected and give that item the ability to store and syphon essence he can give items abilities more powerful than any single person can use. If he starts adding shit like that to drones? Seriously i can't wait to see what that weave is for. This story is awesome. I still want to see him turn his guild building in to a Mythic growth building 😆

Fortunis

LOL, Chatfield working on a chair instead of clearing a dungeon!

Bryan Swanson

Yeah in hindsight it's actually really obvious that the perfected weave Sal is using must be above appraise because of how it interacts with upgrade to make the myth crafter skill. The fundamental difference between what Sal see and what upgrade sees are what is covered by his true-sight ability.

Pickled Rick

I wonder if whatever new weave Sal just developed is the thing I hat would be required to reach beyond Mythic, the higher rarity items require them to have an object weave implanted in them. Although I don't think we'll see a higher ranked item for a good while

Thomas Todd

Wholly crap I I just re read this after listening to Sal at the workshop bazaar “Salvatore: I was there earlier, and it was great. Did you try the aerial stu ff with the platforms? Divinity: Nah, I'll wait until I can grow a pair of wings.” Does this mean she has seen herself with the Valkyrie wing suit from Sal or does her ability get stronger? 🤯🤯🤯 Or I have gone down as rabbit hole and way off the mark hahaha

Kiwi

I really feel like the chapter pacing is off. It's slightly frustrating. Not to be overly critical.... But just seems off to me.

Wes Brown

Oh no I want to see his reaction when he realises Sal has a device to block him, two bird one stone etc.

Kiwi

Awwwwwww the way Rebecca voices the Stalker Overcoat analysis for Blathnaid is so cool like she was emphasising “Unique” for the grade was really cool. 🥰

Kiwi

Can Sal trust Neuro?

Ron Blondeau

Sal and Upgrade with two mythic jackals to kill dragon?

nin10do

That is a perfect place to break at!!

Kenneth Darlin

Hahaha okay hearing Alex in audio version is hilarious 😂😂

Kiwi

Okay I know I’m greedy, we have seen Upgrades reaction to Blight Jackal……. Now I can’t wait for Quest to loose his shit. (Potentially with Nero there) hahaha 🤣

Kiwi

So. Is Sal about to be preparing for licensing exams or portal dives? Or both?!?

Chris Hoopes

Downloaded and listening now. Just because it would be fun, any thoughts on doing a personal voiceover on a “How we got here” section at the beginning of each book? Similar to Primal Hunter series does it. That or have Chatfield to voice over a field report or something.

Daniel

Sal has the maximised all sight he father taught him to only recognise it as aprasel. The first time are told this is about the skill is in book one by divinity and later when he discusses what happened at the skill registration with quest and upgrade and finally finds out that he has a mix of his parents weaves in book 4 first draft.

nin10do

Producing high grade healing potions with the elixir machine would be simpler. Making a bulk supply and passing then out to all the Saviors could be done right away. I like your idea with a gate unlocking machine definitely feels safer than how the legendary jacket works.

Chris Hoopes

The audiobook is on point. The narrators are rocking it..

Chris Hoopes

Pre-order of audiobook was ready this morning!! Woot! Thanks Brian :)

Thylayb 1970

Once again Rebecca and Daniel knock the audiobook version out of the park. 🥰

Kiwi

My audiobook was ready for upload at 0300. 🥳

Dawn Zeleznik

Yeah I feel he needs to prioritise the healing device

Kiwi

I really want Sal to make a healing project his next big project after his alchemical coffee machine is built. Finding a way to heal himself while maybe naturally unknotting weaves (more for others than himself) or opening essence gates by sleeping in a specially designed pod seems like just the thing that Sal could make to break the future with the major problem being Bastion getting a hold of it. It could help so many people in his life and free up time again for him to dungeon delve or improve his other skills.

Pickled Rick

And ch 14? Says he protected the screen up. Projected*

R. Maxwell Steele

Ok lots of questions: So how comes he never uses divinity's weave anymore? Just like nags her to check for him. And doesn't he use the perfected version of all skills, but somehow not his dad's, which he has the most practice using, even perfect doesn't seem to help with all-sight somehow? What happened to the body-fixing cocoon he was going to sleep inside of? Isn't that cocoon borderline essential to his health? He mentioned letting his drone fly around and learn more so I'm hoping his drone doesn't just sit around invisible all day when he's crafting, it should be working and leveling up. I want that thing to develop sapience/sentience/butler-power soon. I definitely enjoyed this set of chapters, so to the author all the gratitude!

R. Maxwell Steele

New audiobook?! Really?? Omgarsh, I blame fate, as it must be that foul temptress that bestows upon me these blessing; I had just finished the last of my previous bundle of binges today...

Dlandis

Is your complaining that bad that they are shipping this chair back with you or will it live in the states and they are just that desperate for extra chapters each week as well? Happy to hear your upload schedule will be back to UK time soon I miss my Monday chapters.

Pickled Rick

Thank you so much for these chapters! I loved them. I can't describe how excited I am that Sal's back at Quest Academy doing mind blowing things. (Not that he wasn't doing awesome things during the break too, lol)

Meghan B

Continuity error: Upgrades present. It was described in book 4 as “Sal tapped the next one up. It was a small decorative box that was similar in size to the ones they used for the Obsidian Daggers. "This is a present for Upgrade. I'll be taking it in the car with me, since I don't want to risk it going missing." Now she’s has multiple crates of materials and a blueprint.

Kiwi

Who are the three helpers? I think I recognize Chatfield... I don't know the other two lol

Chioke Nelson

Thanks for the chapters. No gift for Divinity or syncing up of fighting form times? No message to Grant to give him a clue? Guess he can do these another day... but that's a later chapter and I want it now!!! 😃

gratch42

Minor edit: Change "ever" to "every" Sal was able to see each and ever choice he had made reflected back to him.

Koral

Ah imagine it on the back with majority of it white and red collar on a unisex trenchcoat. Thanks for info though understand the picture now

nin10do

The red collar with the health symbol shows it Roche Also Roche is a red head, Erika is blonde (i think)

Kiwi

Great ideas I bet she's fuming and upgrade showing it sounds so much like her and rubbing doc's nose in it too I second that idea

nin10do

Preordered, and read on kindle

Jaimee

Uhh I just must have imagined aj to be more eye catching wasn't it a long coat and white it looks like a uniform, but that probably just me with too much active imagination lol

nin10do

Also hope to see Villas reaction after finding our Sals myth after Doc Ameye outed him at the Gala 😂

Kiwi

Please please pleeeeaaaasssseeeee have Upgrade rub the myth drone in Ameyes face once it’s completed. It’s her personality. Or at least have her call an Academy assembly and show it off. Let the other classes see what supports are capable of.

Kiwi

Roche

Kiwi

I wanna see an advanced researched arbitures judgement suit with blight cores hehe

nin10do

On the saviour's book front cover is that Rochle or Erica

nin10do

Yeah, she knows how to push Sal in the direction that will have the biggest effect. Honestly, best controller so far lol.

Charles Gillentine

Paperback: Check Kindle Book: Check Audible: Preordered Oh yeah, I’ve got this book cover and looking forward to doing the same for Book 4 😀

Michael Foreman

Thank you for the chappies! Friendly possible edits: Chapter 13 (pages 5 & 6 out of 7) Quote: [3 compatible users found] [Closest Synchro Rate: 97%] "Four?" Sal was curious who could have managed to get that high for a completely new ability. 3 ==> 4 Quote: He accepted the request and decided to let get to work. to let get to work ==> to let it get to work Quote: Just as he was about to give the instruction, Sal paused and titled his head to one side. titled ==> tilted

JJB4345_80_815

Is it terrible that the picture reminds me of Zoolander looking for the files in the computer?! 🤣 TFTC!

Naotsugu97

oh yeah you are right

Joshua allen

Fantastic! I was not expecting a new release today. The only problem with this is a hunger for more to read.

RnR_ RnR

I think it's on about him reaching the last of the windows on the visor. Like going through the tabs on a browser

Tom

Thanks for the chapters, wondering when Grant will show up:-)

Alteron

Awesome chapters.. but that’s pic asks how many authors does it take to put together one chair? Have a great week!!

Heather Herren

Between the mythmark and Jackle Sal won’t need a team to do dungeons and towers. He’d almost be better off solo. Especially if it wipes out dungeons like it did the first test.

Kiwi

The leecher comment at the end makes it seem plausible and it will help Quest Academy keep up with Robert’s expectations.

Kiwi

Alright... real question is Chatfield in this picture? He seems like a problem solver kind of guy

Hakalakala

Ok I was thinking weaves for machines were a thing but not that soon… 🤩 Wonder when he makes a training hall with Barry’s ability 😏. Well damn I am excited. And the semester hasn’t even started yet.

Benjamin Hartmann

Upgrade to the rescue

nin10do

Small Edit chap 14 "Sal lay there on the bed for a few hours until he reached the last of the windows" either the sun or the light instead of he

Joshua allen

Really looking forward to the audiobook tomorrow. Cant wait. Thanks for the chapters. It feels like a good use of his time and real progress being made on the elixir machine. Im also glad to see Upgrade will be fine tuning the Strategists Dominion suit. Thanks again.

Chris Hoopes

Divinity’s nonchalant reply to it though makes me hesitant. Or she’s down playing it so Sal doesn’t go into Sal mode.

Kiwi

Thank you for the chapters! Loving that Sal is trying to manage his time more. Be more proactive instead of reactive. Looks like you guys are having fun while in Florida lol. So excited to start book 3 with audible tomorrow. Some how I put in my calendar release for last Friday. I was so excited to start and baffled when it wasn't there lol.

Michelle Ray

Thanks for the chapters. Grant is going to be going crazy trying to figure out what Sal did again.

Dawn Zeleznik

I spotted chap 14 towards the end of think it said protected from the visor instead of projected.

Dillon Beedie

It’s also how I discovered that Amazon Australia ships to New Zealand haha

Kiwi

Two quick edits I found (I think) Chapter 13: “3 compatible users” then goes on to show 4. Chapter 14: page 4 paragraph 3 “Sal was able to see each and ever”. Love the chapters I’m getting the feeling by the last line that Sal is going to end up making a man made dungeon where you can control the demon spawn rates and variations. By accident of course in true Sal fashion hahaha.

Kiwi

Thanks B. Hope the chair is comfortable and stays together 😉😆 I'm jealous of Ireland trip. Be Safe. Looking forward to next week's chapters.

Sas Nicolls

Already bought audio. I know the reading of the book was enjoy. :)

John Duncan

Is your chair...upgradeable?...

Charles Gillentine

Sal has definitely created some new thing that will break the world.......

Thomas Todd

Same I have all three of each book as well hahaha

Kiwi

lol I have had the reordered as soon as it went live and I have the books physically and digital on kindle and audible.

nin10do

Thanks for the chapters

James jones

I think I see an empty kraken which is a good choice I'm my eyes

Dillon Beedie

Thanks for the chapters I can’t wait for book threes audible.

Kiwi

lol I zoomed in on that too 😂

Kiwi

That's alot of booze! Hopefully some good Scottish whiskey!
