Chapter 335: Back Door Problems
“Dark Descent,” Maveith offered. It wasn’t bad, as the trek down here was long. The problem was we would hopefully be able to find the dungeon exit, and no one else would have to make enter the way we had.
“Manticore’s End,” Navek said loudly and bitterly, a...

For Seraphim subscribers I will give them out in the order that request was made. If there are not a lot of requests I will open it to kitc...

Chapter 206:
I wanted to escape the Sapphire Passage as quickly as possible. I suspected that the young aristocrat I had outbid for the phantom cats was going to cause trouble. As Leda and I rushed out of the flight lanes, we reviewed the city maps I had purchased, and she informed me about the flight patterns she had s...

I am currently writing chapter 206 of World Sphere, so fans of that story know it is coming. I am a third of the way through it, but I will not finish it tonight, as my bedtime is 11 p.m. Going to bed at 2 am is not going well for me.
I wanted to let people know that editing has started on A Soldier's Life Book 4. This ...

Chapter 334: Easy, Peezy, Manticore Squeezy
“The dungeon is definitely aware of us,” I stated. It was not a mental attack that I felt on my new mental defenses, just an awareness that we were under scrutiny.
“How do you know?” Raelia asked as she looked up into my eyes.
I didn’t want to reveal my a...

Chapter 88: Army Upgrades
After waking, I found myself still annoyed with the reduced resolution. I sent off a message to Mad Dog about it but couldn’t expect him to respond until he reached a safe area in the dungeon. I then moved to my drafting room with dozens of projects.
My elevated level also enhance...

Chapter 333: A Long Way Down
We climbed back up to our shelter as night settled across the mountain. The thermal stone heated the cave, and the waves became a solid block of ice from the diffused heat of the thermal stone. While Konstantin and Navek expressed some excitement about exploring the depths of th...

When we returned to the others, we discussed what we had found. “If that is where the manticores come from, we should explore the chasm. The dungeon entrance may be there!” Navek voiced excitedly.

Chapter 331: Dark Chasm
The jungle looked different when I wore the amulet of clarity. The movement of insects seemed magnified, and I was quicker to identify flora and fungi from the books I read. Anything I was unfamiliar with also caught my attention. My mind was more curious and introspective about the unkn...

Our party consisted of Mag Dog, Grinder, Black Beauty, Sunflower, and Blood Crisis. Having most of the guild and town leadership in the dungeon was dangerous.

The goliath’s eye arched, “Oh...

Taking a brief pause from the Town Builder chapter to post this. There will be a Raelia POV chapter for Soldier book 6 so no need to include her in the choices.

For three weeks, we hunted along the slopes. We focused on about thirty square miles along the north slope. The site was a few days’ hard walk from Eternis through the jungle. Navek was right in that the manticores could not resist metal. The long sword we used as bait got a fair amount of us...
