“Hah…” I sighed for the umpteenth time while looking at my status screen as I walked toward my seinjet from school. The reward hadn’t cashed in yet. It still showed the pending status.

Now that Litmus’ coalition army had a real symbiote user, the army’s confidence rose to unprecedented heights.

“Chase him!...
2025-08-15 23:01:25 +0000 UTC View PostJames had explored the forest and, true to Andrew’s words, there was no portal to the next floor.
