Chapter 531 – Ostanes

“It’s pointless! None of this crap is going to work!” Ostanes yelled, flipping the table and watching his equipment shatter on the floor for the third time this month, the liquids spilling into a magical puddle. A few drops splashed onto his robes, but the self-cleaning enchantments caused them to roll down the violet fabric without staining it.

The sight of the broken glass only ex...

Chapter 530 – Structured Amnesia

A/N: In case you didn't notice that there was a bonus chapter yesterday, you might wanna go here first.

Chapter 529 – Starry Princess (2)

A/N: Uhm... hi.

So, remember a week ago when I set the next bonus chapter at rank #3000 on Amazon?

Well, I do!

To be honest, I didn't think we were going to hit it with Book 1, because our ascension stalled hard after peaking around #3200. From then on, it was sinking by several hundred ranks every day, getting as low as like #6400 at some point.

It was ...

Chapter 528 – Starry Princess (1)

Technically, the egg had already hatched – a little over a week ago.

Percy had been thrilled at the time, watching with bated breath as his new familiar broke out of her shell, only to be disappointed by the outcome. The creature crawling on the uneven floor of the magical hive had looked nothing like any of the three types of wasps that the Queen had told him about.

It had just b...

Chapter 527 – Ludwick’s Compass

Micky’s goal was simple, if somewhat ambitious.

He wanted to use Ludwick’s Compass to keep track of Robari’s location as he returned to Remior, so that he could revisit the place at will. Not that he had any intention of stepping foot on the infected world anytime soon, but his success would affect a lot more than his ability to help Marnok.

It would forever change the way he ...

Chapter 526 – Seclusion

‘Marnok… you were awfully quiet during the meeting with the Saint. What are your thoughts on all of this?’ Micky asked once they were alone.

The sailor sighed. Before replying, he walked to the edge of the platform, scooping up a handful of glowing moss. It felt cold and slimy, but he would have to eat it sooner or later.

Tossing some in his mouth, he clearly struggle...

Chapter 525 – Cardinal Devil

“Is it a demonic infestation?” Micky asked, causing the projection to raise an eyebrow.

“How could you know about that? Has it started affecting mortals already?” Ludwick answered Micky’s question with a couple of his own.

Micky shrugged. “Well, it’s affected at least one Yellow-born to my knowledge. I wasn’t alone on this expedition, origin...

Chapter 524 – Mindset

‘Are you okay with Ludwick doing this to you?’ Micky asked his host.

No matter what the Saint’s plan involved, Micky wasn’t very worried about himself. He didn’t think that the demigod could do anything to his mind that he couldn’t fix by merging back with his main bodies. His host, on the other hand, only had one life, so Micky wasn’t going to agree to something th...

Chapter 523 – Unintentional benefit

Micky and Ludwick had barely walked twenty steps down the staircase when the latter suddenly paused. The runes on the walls flashed brightly for an instant as a loud noise emanated from above, accompanied by a deep rumble that shook Marnok’s very bones.

“What is going on?” Micky asked upon realizing that this was coming from the tomb that they’d just left behind.

At first, i...

Chapter 522 – Meeting through time

Scanning the suspected demigod from head to toe, Micky was surprised by how gaunt – arguably decrepit even – he looked. There was barely any muscle between his wrinkled skin and bones, his scalp covered in age spots rather than hair. He did have a long, white beard that reached all the way to his waist, giving him an air of refinement that one would normally struggle to find in a mortal. 2025-11-19 07:01:02 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 521 – Saint Ludwick

Landing on a flat surface, Micky scanned his surroundings, ready to protect his host against any potential threats. Not that he expected to find any beasts inside the sealed tomb, but one could never be too careful.

The room was mostly dark, though a few scant rays of sunlight slipped through the tunnel that he and Marnok had just crawled from, barely illuminating the place. The cube’s ...

Chapter 520 – Spear fishing for dead demigods

Channelling his host’s mana through the constructs, Micky rapidly filled the gaps between the enchanted slabs with more ice. A frozen island formed beneath Marnok’s feet, encasing the entire formation in mere moments before continuing to expand outwards.

Blooming like a pale lotus, it disturbed the lake’s still waters, growing to thrice its original width in less than half an hour. ...

Chapter 519 – Lake

Micky and Marnok were still shaken by the things that they had seen over the past couple of days. Sadly, they didn’t have the time to rest or mourn the others. A vast jungle teeming with monsters stretched behind them, a slightly less vast lake full of unknown horrors lying before them. While the sailor was busy burying Nodarr’s body by the shore, Micky seized the opportunity to refill his ...

Chapter 518 – Scarabs

Micky used the icy vines to constrict the healer tighter, but Flammy didn’t seem to care about his misshapen body or the countless wounds tearing open across his skin.

Nodarr was having a much harder time enduring the violent symptoms of his infection, however. Bloody foam spilled out of his lips as he struggled to speak – or breathe – Micky wasn’t sure which – but only choked g...

Chapter 517 – Flammy

Abandoning all caution, Micky sprinted toward the lake at full speed, the other survivors right behind his host. It was too late for stealth anyway – given the commotion that their battle against the two-headed snake had raised.

On top of that, they most certainly lacked the numbers to protect themselves against any other horrors that the jungle might throw at them, so their best bet wa...

Chapter 516 – Skull Island

A/N: We've made it into the top 5000! I was hoping to get there eventually, but not so quickly! Thank you all for making it possible. Next goal, the top 3000!

Here's another bonus chapter to celebrate.

_________________________________________________

The sailors moved cautiously through the jungle, heading straight toward the nearest lake. Apparently, there ...

Chapter 515 – Cleaning up

A/N: This is today's regular chapter. I'll post another bonus chapter to celebrate as soon as we hit #5000 on Amazon. We've still got a lot of climbing to do, but I think it's doable.

Keep in mind that I posted two chapters yesterday, so you might want to check out 2025-11-13 07:01:05 +0000 UTC View Post

A/N: This is the first bonus chapter to celebrate today's Amazon launch! Thank you all for your support! Also, I was just informed by MDP that Book 2 is up for pre-orders. It's releasing on Dec. 31st.
