There was quite the commotion in astera when Alex was spotted approaching from the sky for the first time in close to four weeks. Those with sharp eyes noticed that he was carrying a bundle made of some sort of hide rolled into an airtight ball around it's contents. The commander and admiral both walked outside astera to meet up with Alex as he landed. "Hmm , I can't quite put my finger on it b...
2023-04-16 19:59:35 +0000 UTC View PostAlex called it a day after that and brought the toad monster he decided to name terrantoad back to his temporary nest to get cooked and eaten. The way he cooked the monster was both simple but effective as he simply skinned and prepared the monster with some of the seasoning plants he found while poking the meat full of small holes with his claw and then slowly roasting it whole with his flames...
2023-04-16 18:19:01 +0000 UTC View PostMuch to Alex's surprise the fruit spilt a thin watery glowing juice after being cracked open that had an intense sweet scent. Licking the inside of the fruit that was basically hollow Alex was left speechless to discover that this fruit was almost identical to a coconut in a all regards. 'How the fuck did coconut trees get down here , and how did they survive long enough to evolve like this?' h...
2023-04-16 16:51:53 +0000 UTC View PostAlex was quite surprised at how stubborn this monster was in it's pursuit of him as even after flying to the other side of the underground forest it was still chasing him. Clearly simple retreating wasn't going to work on this particular monster because it was hyper fixated on him for some unknown reason. Alex didn't know if this species was just that aggressive or what , but he did know that h...
2023-04-13 18:33:52 +0000 UTC View PostThis wasn't to say that this was what Alex would actually use it for since a cheap combustible liquid like this could be used for far more impressive things. Alex remembers that in the dlc for the game that there was a coal powered steam engine in seliana. With a little tweaking from the scholars Alex figured that his newly acquired explosive poison could be turned into a brilliant fuel source ...
2023-04-12 18:05:51 +0000 UTC View PostAlex didn't need to worry about being seen as thanks to the pale light and dark coloration of the plants his [shadow camouflage] trait obscured him. He had a sneaking suspicion that this particular trait wasn't going to be very useful against whatever lived here however since they had likely evolved to cope with constant low light conditions. 'Alright time to see what is what in this place.' he...
2023-04-09 17:51:39 +0000 UTC View Post"Their dangerous." the admiral finished the statement for Alex with a dark expression. 'Yeah , I won't go looking for fights but if Whatever lives there is territorial I may need to.' Alex said honestly. ' That said if I don't think I can take whatever I find I can still just retreat without much issue.' he said confidently. "Alright , but if you find out what drew zorah to the everstream you r...
2023-04-08 18:40:58 +0000 UTC View PostWhen salem finally woke up she was pleasantly surprised to notice that her first thoughts weren't about death and chaos. she honestly couldn't remember the last time she had not woken up with a mind full of those ideas. "oh good you're up." leon said from next to her on the bed. "how long was i asleep?" salem asked while yawning and stretching. "not too long merely a century and some" he said c...
2023-04-08 17:22:27 +0000 UTC View PostAlex got two traits from eating the legiacris , [elemental discharge] and [water breathing]. the first one was uncommon rank and needed Alex to devour fifty elemental materials from each of the elements to unlock. The second trait however was one that Alex had already maxed out causing something to happen with the system that had never happened before , he got a trait ticket. Apparently when a ...
2023-04-06 18:48:28 +0000 UTC View PostThere was so much grim essence that as his mangekyou devoured and burned it as fuel for growth the pattern in his eyes began to slowly but surely shift. the four black dots that made up leon mangekyou rotated slightly as the center pupil started to grow four points in the cardinal direction. unfortunately before this transformation could actually finish the amount of grim essence smoke coming f...
2023-04-06 17:11:31 +0000 UTC View PostAlex finally found the legiacris at the end of the week about two miles east of astera in a small cove with high cliffs. It was actually a pretty nice spot in Alex's opinion with a crescent moon shaped beach and a single entrance or exit. The legiacris was only a normal one so Alex wasn't that worried about the fight once he found it. The beast lived up to it's fearsome reputation though as the...
2023-04-05 19:29:29 +0000 UTC View PostLeon had learned an interesting little piece of information thanks to his relationships with glenda and salem that he wasn't a hundred percent sure was true. as far as his experience was concerned the powerful women on remnant were insatiable monsters when it came to sex. it wasn't hard to figure out why either since they tended to have high levels of endurance as well as stress making them ver...
2023-04-05 17:14:33 +0000 UTC View Post"Damnit sid You almost gave me a heart attack for a moment there you bastard!" the admiral said faux anger having realized he'd been pranked. He wasn't actually angry so much as just putting up a mean front to try and dissuade Alex from pranking him again. The admiral had witnessed Alex's fight with both zorah and nergigante and could tell that much like he had predicted so long ago Alex had be...
2023-04-04 18:45:09 +0000 UTC View PostLeon didn't say anything about salem's choice since it would be pointless but did double check that the maid had a good amount of corruption in her body. while anyone with eyes could see the black marks and dark eyes leon needed a rough understanding of exactly how much corruption he needed to clear out. "you should probably lay down , this is going to hurt a lot." he said seriously and the mai...
2023-04-04 17:11:20 +0000 UTC View PostThings went back to normal after that in astera as everyone slowly got used to the new high rank monsters. Alex was quite busy during this time hunting down the stronger variants of the monsters letting him increase his strength by a large amount over a period of two weeks. [slick scales] , [ice resistance] , [lithe figure] and [bloodletting claws] were each unlocked during this time causing Al...
2023-04-03 19:53:03 +0000 UTC View PostHe wasn't equal to her yet since she just barely qualified as a peak level six but it was only a matter of time before he reached her. salem's mind raced as the corrupted thinking made her immediately turn her thoughts towards violence but logic told her that killing leon was now impossible. even if she overpowered him by a good amount she didn't have any method to keep him from escaping. the s...
2023-04-03 17:25:31 +0000 UTC View PostGeralt might be altruistic enough not to take payment for helping someone make sense of an existential crisis , but he wasn't stupid enough to turn down armor made from a powerful dragons scales. He knew that even if Alex was much different than the black dragons in his world he was still a very powerful monster with a powerful defense. While geralt couldn't see himself wearing a set of dragon ...
2023-04-02 18:34:01 +0000 UTC View PostLeon found himself ripped apart more and more as the fight raged on as he was having trouble adapting to the various different speeds. against most enemies leon wouldn't be having this much trouble since he merely needed to adapt to a single tempo but this time there were three completely different ones. even using kami no keshin wasn't helping him much since the combined power of four ancient ...
2023-04-02 16:39:59 +0000 UTC View PostAlex didn't need to wait all that long for geralt to leave the base to look for him , about fifteen minutes in fact. Alex smirked at the man 'it's a hard thing to ignore ones curiosity , even if you know you should.' He said calmly. Geralt chuckled "Ain't that the truth. I admit you stoked my interest Obsidian , what's your story?" the man asked curiously. 'Hop on my back so we can take this co...
2023-03-31 19:12:35 +0000 UTC View PostWhat did this mean for leon you may be asking? "not a damn thing , your whole feud with the ozpin was pointless!" he said angrily towards salem. "rather than fuck over literally every other person on the planet you could have just killed off each of his incarnations after copious amounts of torture until he lost the will to do anything!" leon shot into the sky with his hell flames after venting...
2023-03-31 17:48:26 +0000 UTC View PostAn event happened right at the start of these high rank monsters appearances , a small group of scholars from the third fleet arrived in astera looking for Zain. Alex eavesdropped on the conversation and what he heard made him both excited and VERY nervous. According to them they had found a strange creature and brought it back to their base and wanted the fleet commander and his best people to...
2023-03-30 18:27:48 +0000 UTC View PostThe element that the runt got from it's two normal ones fusing was called "plasma" by Alex due to the fact that it was basically just that. Super heated energy that was extremely destructive and was blinding to look at. The downside to this new element however was equally impressive as well since unlike normal elemental attacks any that the runt made using this new element consumed a metric fuc...
2023-03-27 19:38:10 +0000 UTC View PostTime flew past for the world and a few things had happened during this time that needed to be mentioned. the first was that salem had finally got laid six months in and had drastically mellowed out as a result. this happened mostly because leon got bored of denying her and because the longer he did so the more aggressive she became. it was so bad that he was practically being commanded to go ge...
2023-03-27 17:44:06 +0000 UTC View PostAlex's theory was proven possible since when he finished eating his meal the notifications from the system popped up. First and foremost was the notification telling him that he had generated three new traits , [variant electrosis T3] , [focused horns] and [thick skin]. The first trait was obviously the same type as the fire elemental trait he had gotten from zorah meaning that all elemental el...
2023-03-26 18:42:23 +0000 UTC View PostLeon was surprised to see that cinder asked him for a spar after dinner was over and salem backed up that request making him sigh since as per his side of the deal he had to do it. what he didn't do however was state how battles between maiden level forces should be conducted unlike what he did with winter. as a result leon quickly overwhelmed cinder with his all out attacks ending the spar in ...
2023-03-26 16:40:52 +0000 UTC View PostAlex was relentless with his attacks on the angry kirin that was almost helpless against him in the fog , almost. After getting struck by Alex's tail for the fifth time in a row the kirin resorted to random attacks in every direction. This worked too as even though it couldn't see him Alex got struck over and over again by the rampaging electricity. 'It's a good thing I unlocked that [insulated...
2023-03-25 19:30:14 +0000 UTC View PostNormally eating bones like this would result in not so pleasant consequences but leon's body was like a furnace in that it burn whatever was thrown into it. once the meal was over leon was excused to go back to his room for the evening. the next day started with breakfast before leon was given permission to explore the surroundings. he left the castle and shot into the sky with his wings to tak...
2023-03-25 17:53:42 +0000 UTC View Post"Just in case start spreading the word of the elder's presence so we can react in a timely manner should it prove aggressive." The commander said seriously. Alex nodded before closing his eyes and pushing his telepathy to it's limits to inform as many people as possible in an instant. "Not exactly what I had in mind but I won't complain at results." the man said while rubbing his temple thanks ...
2023-03-24 18:28:40 +0000 UTC View Post'Is this why i feel so attracted to his eyes?' salem wondered. in the end she kept her questions to herself since she had an entire year to try and extract leon's secrets. leon watched as salem sent her people off before leading him into the castle to show him around. she had a good poker face since if he hadn't seen the slight change in expression she had when his eyes changed he wouldn't have...
2023-03-24 17:06:07 +0000 UTC View Post"WHEW" The head smith wiped away the sweat on his forehead and whistled in appreciation "that's some seriously high heat you've got there lad." he said honestly. The man walked past Alex to peer into the forge more closely now that the temperature had lowered to "normal" levels. "Damn near melted a hole through the the furnace and the roof of it too." he said with a slight hint of irritation. '...
