Hi! I will likely make a general announcement post for it, but also saying it here, here are the first (and hopefully only) days I'm taking off from writing to edit book 4:
Thursday 29th (You get one more chapter after this one tomorrow then 686 on Friday)

2025-05-27 16:00:16 +0000 UTC View Post“Hey, Lepo, can I ask you something?” Sofia asked the shopkeeper.
“Yes?”
“Have any of the master items already been bought? Is that something you can share?”
“Hmm… It’s probably fine to tell yes. To this day, three of them have been sold. The respective shops h...

Hi! Unfortunate news, I'll have to take a few days off soon. I don't know when and how many exactly, but I need the extra time to finish book 4's edition for amazon (It was slated to release in January...), so yeah...
Other than that, things are going great though, five m...
2025-05-23 16:00:22 +0000 UTC View Post“After I myself disappeared, Anna trapped herself in a toybox before dispersing her essence… Not enough to kill her, but not far from it… I am working on a way to get her out right this moment, which is mostly what has kept me busy after my return, that and the horrendous state of the syste...
2025-05-22 16:00:16 +0000 UTC View PostA box wrapped in pink paper and a white ribbon appeared in front of Sofia.
“Is leg?!” Pestle asked, surprised at the appearance of the box.
“Maybe, actually, let me open that,” Sofia answered her, as Pareth and Bookie also walked up to the box. She pulled on the ribbon and the...
2025-05-21 16:00:20 +0000 UTC View PostSofia turned the page, and to say the least, what she read there was not what she had expected.
‘According to all known laws of magic, there is no way that time magic should be able to fail.
What I mean is, the god-damned spells are correct!
The patterns ...
2025-05-20 16:00:15 +0000 UTC View PostWhy this place so big… Where leg?
Silently flying in between the legs of a skeleton guard who couldn’t see her, Pestle was surprised by a sudden communication from Sofia.
‘Pestle. Big news! The lich is distracted. You no longer have to be as sneaky. I’ll try to ma...
2025-05-19 16:00:18 +0000 UTC View PostSurprisingly enough, it seemed that despite the casino’s games all being heavily stacked against the players, the owner’s promises were not empty words. Though still pretending to be only a manager, he personally took Sofia to the private VIP exchange desk, while sending other skeletons to fe...
2025-05-16 14:59:25 +0000 UTC View Post“What happens if we draw,” Sofia asked, playing with the dice in her hand.
“We go until one side wins,” the dealer answered without hesitation.
“Sure thing,” Sofia accepted, popping a mana pearl into her mouth like a piece of candy, “Pareth you can go first.”

2025-05-15 16:00:17 +0000 UTC View PostThe dealer was flabbergasted as he rolled three sixes in a row, taking him way over the line.
“Looks like it’s our win again,” Sofia innocently said, “Ten times in a row. We should be at around sixty million points, right? Does the casino even have the funds to pay this out?”
<... 2025-05-14 16:00:18 +0000 UTC View Post“Wahahah! I can’t believe this, they actually wiped the floor with you, this is the best!” a certain foxy saintess mocked Tartaros, laughing her lungs out as she rolled on the floor.
The recipient of said mockery paid it no mind, watching the screens with a faint smile on his face. ...
2025-05-13 16:12:35 +0000 UTC View PostThe golden statue of Tartaros was already showing cracks, he would be out shortly.
Sofia’s first reflex seeing this was to summon one of her mana pearls from [Crystallized] and quickly gulp it down along with her own heart, the faster the could think the better against su...
2025-05-12 16:00:17 +0000 UTC View PostUnsurprisingly, the casino had a dedicated place to fight, and it was more like an entire coliseum than a simple arena. Sofia made it just in time to witness Mornn separate a chimera’s body from its last head, while an announcer skeleton gave announcements for the crowd of spectators.

2025-05-09 16:50:41 +0000 UTC View PostThe enchantment controlling the wheel was extremely simple; it had two mana signals it could send, ‘Speed up’ and ’Slow down’, and the skeleton used them to make sure very few people ever won, much fewer than what one would expect just looking at the wheel.
“I’ll wager one token...
2025-05-08 16:00:15 +0000 UTC View Post“Th- This can’t be right! The crystal…” the skeleton attendant finally stammered as he sared at the debris littering the ground.
“Neeeh, not my fault if your crystal is so brittle I can break it in one punch,” Kuli snarked, “Time to pay up, mister skeleton. That’ll be a mill...
2025-05-07 16:00:23 +0000 UTC View Post“I didn’t know your bone skill could do that,” Mornn commented, prodding the boneless corpse of a zombie with her wooden sandal.
“Because I couldn’t,” Sofia answered, “I might have just unlocked my third specialization. The abyss god event was a big point-earner.”
<... 2025-05-06 16:00:18 +0000 UTC View PostAuthor note: Hi! If you've seen the poll yesterday, (if not go check for detailed explanations) you know we have a slight retcon coming, essentially [Dodge - me]'s aura bonus has been changed from '+100% Aura' to 'Aura gains Lingering'.
I will be updating the previous chapter shortly to ref...
2025-05-05 16:07:25 +0000 UTC View PostHi, so, I made a small mistake with the last chapter.
I forgot that [Dodge - Me] give a 100% Aura bonus when going slow.
So either way I need to edit stuff. But this gives us an option to do a larger change, as the chapter where Sofia got the skill still isn't published on am...

The influence of the Sovereign of unshackled frames is dependant on the target’s location within the aura.
Effects from the Far Aura are also applied to the Field Aura and Close Aura.

2025-05-02 14:25:16 +0000 UTC View PostThankfully, picking an ancestry for the specialization could be done later, so Sofia cancelled everything to go prepare the skill she would put up for specialization. With all of her abilities, it only took her a few minutes to locate another hidden shop. This one was hidden in an very wide empty...
2025-05-01 16:00:23 +0000 UTC View PostIn one of the cheaper spectator rooms with hundreds of seats, the crowd was in a serious uproar as the main screen turned white.
Calmer than the others were two avians sitting in a corner.
“Quite the sight to behold…” Eternam commented, “To think I would forget about such a pr...
2025-04-30 16:01:20 +0000 UTC View Post[Heat death] allowed Sofia to absorb a good chunk of mana from the dead crab, and she put it to good use. Since the cooldown for each consecutive cast of [Saintomancer’s Star] was reduced by half, the second cast came to fruition right then, and it would only b...
2025-04-29 16:01:18 +0000 UTC View PostZephir looked at the screen then at his notepad, taking notes on everything Sofia was doing.
“What do you think?” Saria probed, “She has a chance, right?”
“She’s already survived almost as long as you did,” Zephir answered, “But still, first place is a real stretch, es...
2025-04-28 16:00:55 +0000 UTC View PostSofia threw the low-charge piercing bolt in her left hand at the emerging deity; it missed, the bolt disappearing into the storm.
Too far. I’ve never trained for that kind of aiming… Is the trajectory also getting changed by gravity? Hard to tell… But the avatar form is almost the...
2025-04-25 16:00:26 +0000 UTC View PostAfter a minute of evading the god’s tentacles the effect of the storm pendant started to falter, allowing the storm clouds to close in a bit before Sofia summoned another flask of blood to reactivate it.
The tentacle attacks kept coming. Now confident she could evade them with relative ea...
2025-04-24 16:00:20 +0000 UTC View PostSofia flew over the island’s volcano to reach the village on the other side. It was built on another sandy beach, huts made of tropical wood logs and palm leaves on elevated stilts.
As for why Sofia could not feel anyone’s presence there, It was not that the village was uninhabite...
2025-04-23 16:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostThe end of the demonic invasion was as abrupt as it was uneventful. While Sofia let her birds commit war crimes out of her sight, sipping on some hot tea, the event just ended.
[All demon lords have been slain, the demonic invasion was repelled!]
It had been less than...
2025-04-22 15:59:59 +0000 UTC View PostA singular demon flew out of the western fault. He had expected many possibilities as to what would greet him on the other side, but despite his best effort, none of his previous guesses were even close to the truth.
The vanguard laid eyes on the mangled corpses of thousands of human soldie...
2025-04-21 16:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostBookie, when I catch the guy, summon the pearled snake.
The demon’s crystal of frost pulsed with cold magic, washing over Sofia harmlessly as VPPV gave her immunity to the cold. As she was not hampered by the magic, the demon cancelled his chanelling, shattering the crystal, send...
2025-04-18 16:00:23 +0000 UTC View PostSofia was not the kind of person who would fall to the same trick twice in a row, the asterite chest she had gotten from the coin-thrower dwarf appeared between her back and the demon’s four blades. The demon’s weapons shattered and that extra time was all it took for Pareth to teleport to So...
