Shaun was silent for a while after Eric spoke, he needed a moment to process everything that he had said. The first thing that he was curious about was how Viv could communicate with Xavier and he was never given anything to communicate with The Alliance. Although the more he though about that he guessed it had something to do with having joined the faction in an official capacity, something he...
2024-06-21 05:23:13 +0000 UTC View PostShaun had never been one for inspiring others, especially not with words. But he these people seemed to listen to him and he saw just a small kernel of hope bloom in some of them. “You really claimed that dungeon, didn’t you?” Shaun just gave the man a nod. “And your strong, I can’t even see your level. I mean, sorry. I shouldn’t have identified you. I am Jeff by the way.”

2024-06-20 10:34:17 +0000 UTC View PostShaun couldn’t deny that excitement he felt about claiming his first dungeon, even if it was an F grade. He accepted the prompt and claimed the dungeon, when he did so even more options were provided.
*Please choose one of the following options*
Option 1: Terraform surrounding area covered by this dungeon. Note: this will cost further TE, amount d...
2024-06-19 11:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostIt took three full days before he saw the mountain range in his sight, if barely. After the first day he ended up needing to travel at a slightly slower speed, feeling the continues push of his affinity and skills start to strain his body. By the end of the second day he had ended up needing to take for frequent breaks where he would walk instead of pushing himself through the air. It was a muc...
2024-06-18 10:47:55 +0000 UTC View PostShaun experienced the same feelings during the time he had travelled to the fae as he was on the way back. This time however he wasn’t being deposited in the palace of one of the most powerful beings in the multiverse, instead his end destination was Earth. That apparently made a big difference to his arrival. Unlike the feeling of being forced through a tiny hole and ending up a mess on the ...
2024-06-17 11:17:28 +0000 UTC View PostAfter everything that they had told him, about the Nephilim, the war, about bringing the Nephilim back, he was overwhelmed. There was a lot of pressure on him, if he failed that was the end. The purpose of the heritage would never be fulfilled and he would have failed not just the Fae and the Dragons, but the Nephilim as well. He was till processing everything they had said and in that moment h...
2024-06-14 11:39:36 +0000 UTC View PostAs they both walked through the palace, Shaun got more nervous by the second, he was about to meet one of the most powerful being in the multiverse, one of the twelve major powers. He hadn’t really thought through the impact of this meeting, when he had chosen to come here all he was really thinking about was getting information, seeing what they expected from him when the time came for him t...
2024-06-13 17:09:51 +0000 UTC View PostThe hour passed by quicker than Shaun liked, he felt like he was on to something with his most recent design, the only reason he wasn’t annoyed was because of the promise of rewards. When he got to the designated room where the ceremony was supposed to occur he found it packed with people already. When he did enter he found a pedestal that had a floating orb on it, he assumed that the ceremon...
2024-06-12 11:24:40 +0000 UTC View PostThe lead up to the final fight was unlike any of the others, everyone was invited to witness the fight, all were welcome to attend. They were also informed that this fight would be recorded and shared throughout the multiverse for all to view at their leisure, which was apparently standard for new integrations so that information on the most powerful could be spread, it would also be announced,...
2024-06-11 19:15:14 +0000 UTC View PostThe colosseum was buzzing with activity the next day, they were coming up on their last days in the tutorial and everyone was preparing as much as they could before their time was up. Like him others were pulling together what they needed from the shops to keep in their inventory, as well as pushing themselves in the dungeons to gain more levels and TE, both of which would be advantageous when ...
2024-06-10 10:42:56 +0000 UTC View PostWhen it came to choosing his reward, the choice had been easier than he had expected. He was only able to get two of the natural treasure and he chose the Life Sapling and the Death Sphere, both of which emitted power that drew him in more than expected, when he held them close to each other they both repelled and drew in the opposing energies in a way that touched on some memory in his mind th...
2024-06-07 11:53:29 +0000 UTC View PostThe next two days were some of the weirdest Shaun had experienced, he continued making links and binding them to people, even doing a huge order for Viv and everyone she had managed to recruit to her cause. When people came to him in the store he had gotten a varied amount of looks ranging from straight up hostility to wishing they could be anywhere but near him, it didn’t stop any of them fr...
2024-06-06 11:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostThe colosseum was in chaos, there was no other word to describe it. Wherever Shaun went the next day he saw people on edge, many were in smaller groups talking about what they were going to do about the war, there were even people who started putting together full teams outside of who they usually trained with, forming up into larger groups to combat anyone who went against them on Earth. The b...
2024-06-05 10:38:35 +0000 UTC View PostThat night, after all the fights were completed, Shaun attended the last of the meetings, this one with Octavius from The Pantheon. The moment he sat down with him, Shaun got the feeling that this meeting was not going to go well, Octavius seemed overly pleased with himself, too confident in what was about to occur, which put him on edge from the start.
“This won’t take long Shaun, I ...
2024-06-04 17:18:04 +0000 UTC View PostThe rest of the day proceeded as planned, Shaun had spent more time than he realised making the ring and now had to get ready to attend his second last meeting. When he walked into the meeting room at the soiree he was greeted by a smiling Xavier Barshen, The Empire representative that had been one of the most forceful reps in trying to get him to join them.
“Please, take a seat Shaun, ...
2024-06-03 11:24:55 +0000 UTC View PostThroughout the entire process of bonding magma he was hoping for some further insight into the Nephilim but nothing ever came. He followed the exact same process as before, fire and earth combined and controlled with ice. The worst part was when his flesh would literally melt off of him when he bought the motes of magma into his body, having to spend time rebuilding himself was just gross and p...
2024-05-31 11:08:15 +0000 UTC View PostThe first week was the hardest, he would see his friends around but they did what he had asked, they put on the show of hating him. He did the same, he would give them dismissive looks, or out right sneer at them, whatever felt like the right thing in the moment he would just go with. He took his first run at the peak E grade dungeon, it started off the same as all the others, with 5 monsters, ...
2024-05-30 17:19:19 +0000 UTC View PostThe feast had turned into a frenzy, they now knew what the TE was for and also what would be happening after their return to Earth, the clans were being asked questions, some taking advantage and promoting what they would do for those that joined them if they became a person of power on Earth. Some, like Viv, were trying to get control of the situation, explaining to those that would listen tha...
2024-05-29 11:19:50 +0000 UTC View PostShaun’s mind was going so quickly that it was hard to keep track of everything that was suddenly falling into place. Queen Elivasia was Fae, which meant she was part of The Alliance, if she was still alive he would put money on the fact that she was the one called The Betrayer, their ruler. The great war, the one he had found just a single reference too, it was the Nephilim, in alliance with ...
2024-05-28 11:52:04 +0000 UTC View PostWhen it came time to head to the feast, Shaun couldn’t hold back his excitement, not because he was going to have to attend another social event, but because over the hours he had worked nonstop on creating the perfect armour from the scales. He had utilised every single bit of the leather, effectively coasting his entire body in the material. When he looked into the mirror he didn’t even r...
2024-05-27 16:12:31 +0000 UTC View PostWhen Shaun appeared outside of the dungeon he was giddy with joy, he had expected people to crowd around him to see if anything interesting would happen like the last time he left the dungeon but the complete opposite had occurred, there was practically no one in sight. Guess people didn’t want to have another experience like last time. Rather than checking the reward from the dungeo...
2024-05-15 14:16:53 +0000 UTC View PostThe first thing he did after the meeting ended was gather the others around and head back to the store to pick up his coins from the sale of his arrows. On the way he explained to the others what happened during the meeting and everything that was spoken about, including the whole aura thing. When they got to the store Ulorid greeted him with a bow, it was weird, but he chose to ignore it. They...
2024-05-15 14:15:55 +0000 UTC View PostThere was no movement, only the cold embrace of death. Life began through warmth and ended with the bitter cold, similar to the cycle of the sun and moon, light and dark. Shaun didn’t know why these thought were running through his head, but they were the first things he thought of when he awoke. Hot and cold. Life and death. Creation and oblivion.
In his death state he remembe...
2024-05-15 14:14:58 +0000 UTC View PostShaun knew what he was planning to do was stupid, reckless even, but he just didn’t care at that moment. What had occurred with Viv had hurt him, more than he had let on, the things she had said had hit him, hard. Even after only knowing her for a few days he thought that she had understood him enough to know that he would put the people he cared about first, but apparently her opinion of him...
2024-05-15 14:13:21 +0000 UTC View PostShaun had never used anything like the Xamium slivers before, so he was slightly unsure on how to proceed, he got the feeling that the shard itself was going to need to be in contact with the material he used, at least when he used the Disintegrating Worm Teeth, so that was where he started. Taking at one of the teeth, he had to spend a decent amount of time shaping it into an arrowhead, the to...
2024-05-15 14:12:24 +0000 UTC View PostThe rest of Shaun’s day went quickly, he only made it to the 17th wave in his dungeon run, getting some alchemical powder for the reward, the others made it to the 18th wave. From all accounts Eric’s new armour had made him a beast when it came to tanking attacks and also helping to reduce the number of monsters quickly. They then spent time with affinity work, Li joining this time, where s...
2024-05-15 14:05:29 +0000 UTC View PostThe moment he got out of the dungeon, he couldn’t help the sigh of relief, he immediately started to warm up, and the safety he felt from escaping that last attack was nearly overwhelming. The others were standing at the dungeon entrance as well, having just been sent back after their 30 minutes, all looking blankly in the air, obviously reading the message from finishing the dungeon.
<...
2024-05-15 14:04:30 +0000 UTC View PostThe beginning of the next day went a bit differently, when he had gotten up and finished getting ready to go to his dungeon run he stopped by Eric’s room and knocked on the door, at first it was a decently soft knock until eventually he was banging on it. When no one answered he gave up and went to Gabe’s room, repeating the process until eventually Eric appeared in the doorway, having clea...
2024-05-15 14:03:26 +0000 UTC View PostOver the next five days, before the second round of fights would start, he had a plan on how he would spend his days. He decided he would start each day doing a dungeon run, pushing himself as far as he could in the low E grade dungeon. So far he had made it to the 16th wave, a decent start, considering he had only been here for a few days but he needed to push further, to both grow in level an...
2024-05-15 14:02:19 +0000 UTC View Post“Everyone be quiet!” Drakunsher, the demon, yelled into the room, being the first of the reps to snap back form their shock. “You!” He directed at Shaun, after everyone had finally calmed down. “You have no idea, what you just did, do you?”
“No, I really don’t, sir.” Shit, he looks pissed now. What the hell is happening!
“Then let me educate you, on your...
