This was the point where Beth and Blood could really get involved and shine, and it turned out they would be shining quite a bit tonight. The ground had not one, not two, but three elite units, though none of them were the rumored casters. Beth and Blood were deep in the thick of it from the mome...
2023-12-28 18:00:04 +0000 UTC View Post"What about my companion? What will she do while we're on patrol?" Beth queried.
"Uh, come with us, ma'am?" Shell answered, quirking a brow and frowning slightly, clearly confused.
"Uh, I don’t know if you noticed, Shell," Beth respo...
2023-12-27 18:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostThey'd covered raw physical power, then they'd covered much more speed orientated builds, but Beth wasn't really sure what could be next. There were several different possibilities that she could come up with, and none of them exactly thrilled her. The likeliest would be a totally physically over...
2023-12-26 18:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostThey had a decent bit of time to rest before the next fight started, and they yet again meditated during that time. Beth had tapped her mana pool to a noticeable degree even though she had tried to be conservative with it, and the chance for twenty or so minutes of meditation was welcome. The tim...
2023-12-25 18:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostThose few, however, did include two rather powerful individuals that Beth suspected held leadership roles within the gang. One of them was a tall and thin man that used a set of daggers to great effect, clearly boasting some kind of speed boosting skill such as Beth and Blood had. The second pers...
2023-12-21 18:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostBeth returned a quick, low-powered swing that the man deflected, but she was able to quickly recover from the swing thanks to the little strength she had used. She was able to immediately return a second swing back into the man, slicing his arm before he could respond. As he moved to swing at her...
2023-12-20 18:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostShe looked through the documents on the table again, gathering up a number of them that had notes about criminal movements. The city had no good way in particular to track people's movement, with no great surveillance apparatus or system of cameras or such. A lot of what she had laid out in front...
2023-12-19 18:00:01 +0000 UTC View Post"Twenty diamond question; how much?" she asked.
"Five golds," he answered, smiling slightly as Beth sighed while making the coins appear on the counter. She thanked the man before taking her old equipment and walking back to the room with it, chucking it in the corn...
2023-12-18 18:00:17 +0000 UTC View PostBeth was fully exhausted, but held on, not passing out as she surfaced from the inky depths of her fugue. She saw there were only a handful of beastlings left alive, looking off to the east to see the sky begin to burn a rose pink, the sun just starting to break the edge of the horizon. They had ...
2023-12-14 18:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe next group was far larger, well over a hundred beastlings, and a number more trickled into the back of the ranks as the first were nearing the two girls. Beth used a trickle of mana to activate Swift, not fully bringing the boosting stat up to the max it could output at Coppe...
2023-12-13 18:00:02 +0000 UTC View Post"Ah, you finally arrived," he said, eyeing the two of them a little critically. "Well, I don't know what the senior officers were thinking, but I can't exactly inspect a gift Draun now, can I?"
"I'm sorry, but what?" Beth asked, brows slightly lowered and one corner...
2023-12-12 18:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe two rested for just over an hour, enough time that Beth got most of her mana back, before they moved deeper into the labyrinth. They didn't encounter any other significantly strong enemies before the end of the labyrinth and the final boss, much to Beth's disappointment, but the final boss pr...
2023-12-11 18:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostAfter defeating both of the enemies, the two continued down the hallway, eventually coming to another door. Beth opened this one slightly cautiously, concerned that she might be walking into a group of enemies. That concern was only partially founded, as there were only two beings within the room...
2023-12-07 18:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostAnd what a terrible stage it was.
They appeared in a small room that contained only a small table with a bowl placed upon it. Within this bowl was a small pile of marbles which Beth didn't need any help in figuring out, as the description helpfully popped up w...
2023-12-06 18:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostTaking down such a creature would be a massive undertaking for a full dungeon group, something like Beth and Blood plus her sisters and Sabs, or even a broader group of ten to fifteen individuals, let alone the two of them by themselves. While Beth's eyes were much improved, and had gained anothe...
2023-12-05 18:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostShe took a step forward and to the right while swinging a one-handed backswing, infusing the slash with Monstrous Blow, slamming into the second captain's sword right as she was thrusting to gore one of Beth's allies. The blow threw the captain's aim off, causing her sword to mer...
2023-12-04 18:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostBeth bowed before returning to her position, looking over at Blood, who was sitting behind and to the side of the ref. "Maybe we should get you in for a few?" she asked.
"There is no need," the ref said. "Experience is split evenly due to the special nature of this ...
2023-11-30 18:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostBeth, meanwhile, continued her spar with the boss, finding its swings fast but not particularly skilled. In fact, she would estimate, based on her own limited knowledge and experience, that the boss wouldn't even be equivalent to the top of Apprentice level, maybe at Apprentice[7] or even just un...
2023-11-29 18:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostClearing this building took an hour, the narrow corridors and rooms inhibiting the girls' mobility, but also meaning only one to two knights could fight them at a time. Close to three dozen knights fell within the span of that hour, Beth and Blood not getting a level out of it, but she did feel t...
2023-11-28 18:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostThe only problem that the group really posed was the hobgoblins, and not for their great strength or skill, but for the fact that their commander designation allowed them to…well…command the surrounding beasts. The goblins were faster, hit harder, and took a little longer to put down thanks t...
2023-11-27 18:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostWhen Beth had described it as 'sloppy,' it might have been an understatement. The perimeter was likely supposed to be an earthen berm with heavy pikes or thick, sharpened stakes driven in around it. Instead, it was more like a dirt bump with a handful of thin sections of tree trunk embedded about...
2023-11-23 18:00:03 +0000 UTC View Post"Right, that makes sense," Beth replied. "Thanks for all the help. We have just under two days before we need to do stage one, right?"
"Yes, that is correct," the woman answered. "Feel free to utilize any of the facilities in the meantime."
<...
2023-11-22 18:00:03 +0000 UTC View Post"And what's the average stage that people fail at, if you don't mind?"
"Oh, not at all," the angel replied warmly. "We see a majority of Trial Takers fail out somewhere between stage fourteen and eighteen. Anything less than stage fourteen is considered a little too...
2023-11-21 18:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostThe elite didn't emit random frost or ice the way other kobolds had, nor did it explode into a massive cloud of ice. It was instead far more focused in its tapping into magic, enhancing its attacks with ice and frost, causing even missed or deflected swings to freeze Beth as she continued the lon...
2023-11-20 18:00:04 +0000 UTC View Post"Fine then," Sabs said crossly as she glared at Beth. "If that's how you want to play; you turn into a fart machine at night!"
"I-I do?" Beth asked, tilting her head and raising her eyebrows.
"I don't always fall asleep first," Sabs re...
2023-11-16 18:00:01 +0000 UTC View Post"We'll take the next couple days and chill. I think I might even be ahead of where Baelvyr expected, anyway."
"How has that training been going?"
"I got Swords to Journeyman[1] and Unarmed to...
2023-11-15 18:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe next morning, Beth woke slightly late, though likely it was still fairly early in the morning. She felt her small, naked girlfriend pressed against her, feeling Sabs's even breaths still washing across her chest. She slowly and carefully resumed her grip of the previous night, gently kneading...

2023-11-13 18:00:02 +0000 UTC View Post"What do you take us for?" Beth asked before immediately following up with, "Never mind, don't answer that. It was rhetorical. Why are you here, anyway?"
Jaq just glowered at the three for a moment before tapping the screen, saying, "It is lunch time, and I am order...
2023-11-09 18:00:01 +0000 UTC View PostBeth had to say, it was enjoyable to spend a few hours relaxing and playing games, something she hadn't done in any form for weeks. In what felt like no time at all, it was early afternoon and Beth had gotten most of her quota of social interaction for the month. An impressive feat, considering i...
