Museum Core Chapter 75: Aftermath

Thomas was just as eager as Elias to start digging through the loot, but sadly, he knew better than to follow through on that. 

Instead, he turned his focus to repopulating the dungeon, replacing everything he’d used up so far and additionally relocating the various aquatic critters ...

Museum Core Chapter 74: Fury

The invaders might have managed to maintain their discipline thus far, even with all that he’d thrown at them, but he could tell they were slowly cracking. Going at it a little harder, a little faster, and often edging into levels of overkill that slightly went beyond what was prudent, thereby ...

Chapter 73: Invasion

There were eight invaders all in all, wrapped in camo-pattern clothing, wearing what Thomas assumed were military-issue helmets, and balaclavas were wrapped around their faces. 

But no insignia, no patches, nothing adorned these people’s “uniforms” in the way he’d seen on the p...

Chapter 72: Chaos Gremlins

The depths of Thomas’ dungeon were, contrary to what the name might have indicated, not actually underneath the Natural History Museum. 

Instead, he’d taken over the catacombs that had belonged to an otherworldly invader. 

Alaxia Mystscale had, once upon a time, been a t...

Outrage of the Ancients Chapter 74: Past’s Price

I’d dreaded the coming of this day for weeks. Not just because the next challenge was dangerous, but because [Catastrophe Sense] had been constantly reminding me of the danger, every single warning, and it was utterly useless.

Giants were a threat because they made a mess merely by existing, their every step causing the ground to quake and destroying buildings even when they weren’t directly stepped on.

Outrage of the Ancients Chapter 72: Continental Chaos

Today was a day I’d truly dreaded. The World Boss would arrive, the first of what would likely be many.

Small Break Announcement

While I was hoping to have finished this book last month, I decided to make a few too many Nation Bosses, then the fights got a little long, and then I got sick.

The “rainforest” was a surprisingly dry place, more akin to the inside of a kiln than anything else. Of course, that was only due to the titanic monster looming overhead, but there was still something vaguely irritating about the title’s lack of accuracy.

I woke up feeling … to be honest, it felt like I was walking to my execution. For some reason.

Outrage of the Ancients Chapter 65: The Lion of Mali

You know, I think I might have figured out why Outrage of the Ancients is so hard to write. Too many characters, too many points of view, all is just a pain to keep straight. Now, obviously, that doesn't mean I'm going to start killing off characters or exclusively write from Tristan's POV going ...
