Bit of gore at the end of this one. Like... not that much, but still. Icky!
Uh... ran out of art to show off. Sadge. Need to write fewer chapters OR hire more artists, lol!
Thanks for all the comments, btw! It's super encouraging to see that many people speak up! <3

It's not lewd, but like... damn, is it close~
Anyway, welcome to goblin town! There's goblins up in here! And a heap of trouble too.
So... I've got some options:
MC focuses on stealth combat

Chapter Sixty-Four

The Bastion came around on auto-pilot, rear hangar doors open so and moving in sideways so that a whipping wind was shoved into our faces even as the ship started to drop out of the sky.
“Myalis, anything?” I shouted over the wind.
The ship’s scanner suit has picked up motion ahead of you. While it’s not enou...

Hi...

Anyway!
There's... 4 days left to the contest! If you're insane, that's plenty of time to join in and burn words like a madperson!

Yoooo, sixty chapters! Kinda hype!
Gonna start the next dungeon run in a chapter or so! That'll be fun as well. Also, introducing a new character... we'll see how the chemistry works out.
I don't like 'planning' characters too much. Sometimes I want them to work and then they end up clashing too hard. Still, I hope this next one will be fun!

I hired three new artists to do more art because... one is too slow.
Uh... so if you're ever wondering where all that patreon money goes... that's where? Oh, and buying silly trinkets.
Also, I might buy a sword like the MC's... let's say... if Save Scumming hits 5K followers in one month, I'll buy a cool sword? Like, a real one. Deal?
Yup, Deal....

It took an hour before we finally left, and I took none of the blame for that.

When we stepped out of the tavern it was to discover the sun was already skimming along the top of the dunes, its bottom half swallowed by the sea of sand. It was nice, the orange sky reflected off the surface and turned the sand all glittery and shiny.
Ah, but it wasn’t the best thing either.
