Xavier, Howard, Siobhan and Justin were engulfed in a white light and transported to the head of the elven army.
Xavier wasn’t sure how this would go. He’d just slaughtered this army and their summoned Champion, the Cerotri Infernum, basically torturing the poor hell beast as he ranked-up his Spirit Break spell.
... 2023-07-10 19:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostXavier stood over the mangled, destroyed body of the Cerotri Infernum.
The hell beast with three heads must have had a massive amount of health. It had managed to survive five uses of Spirit Break to its body, mind and soul each.
Fifteen uses of the spell. Seven and a half minutes of agony.
It still breathed...
2023-07-10 07:04:36 +0000 UTC View PostThe thunderous, explosive roar of the Cerotri Infernum rang out once more, stabbing at Xavier’s ears. The weird bubbling, popping, rumbling, jet-engine noise hit him threefold.
Xavier stared up at the hell beast. Behind him, his honour guard and party stood, along with the rest of the human army. Some of them were eng...
2023-07-10 07:03:15 +0000 UTC View PostXavier, standing between two armies, glanced up at the floor boss for the third floor of the Tower of Champions.
He had no idea what the hell it was, but it lookedterrifying. Far more menacing than the Puma Prime or the Rat King had been. This looked like a true beast. It stood on four thick, trunk-like legs. I...
2023-07-09 19:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostXavier, gripping his Spirit Staff of Might tightly in both hands, ran toward the enemy army of five hundred elves.
Knife-ears, Sergeant Bradley had called them. It was a slur Xavier had recognised. Strange, hearing it from a real person talking about real elves.
Real elves. Elves actually exist, and I...
2023-07-09 07:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostXavier stood in the middle of a large field of long, purple grass. Two suns blared down at him and his party from above. And, on either side of them, two opposing armies marched.
One, an army of elves, five hundred strong.
The other, an army of humans, equal in number.
Xavier stared at the last line of the n...
2023-07-08 19:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostIn the Staging Room of the Tower of Champions, Xavier walked up to the door that would take him and his party to the third floor.
Before moving forward, he looked at his stats and other information.

2023-07-07 19:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostOnce again, when they sold all of the corpses and items they’d looted from clearing a floor, they didn’t get a great deal of coin for them. It added up to a little more than seven thousand Lesser Spirit Coins.
Not for the first time, it made Xavier wonder how much more they could have earned had they sold o...
2023-07-07 07:20:18 +0000 UTC View PostXavier held his breath as he selected Spell Book from the loot box’s notification.
A moment later, a Spell Book appeared in his hand. It was the same size as the one that Siobhan had sitting in her lap. It was a leather-bound book that looked like it had five hundred pages.
He ran a hand over the cover,...
2023-07-06 19:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostXavier walked to the middle of the Staging Room. He knelt by the loot box with his name on it. He’d put his Spirit Staff of Might into his Storage Ring, and he had the odd urge to rub his hands together greedily like some cartoon villain, or steeple his fingers and say, Excellent.
He smirked, pushed away thos...
2023-07-06 06:49:09 +0000 UTC View PostXavier smiled as he read the two notifications, standing in the blood-drenched cavern where he and the others had faced the final boss of the second floor.

Xavier, one moment running across the rocky ground toward the Rat King—the boss of the second floor of the Tower of Champions—in the next found himself falling into a hole that had formed straight beneath him.
He hadn’t been fast enough to avoid it. He hadn’t even known what was happening until it was too late. ...
2023-07-05 07:23:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe screeching scream launching out of the mole rat’s throat was louder than any other Xavier had encountered.
He leapt toward the other members of his party, facing up at the beast and quickly scanning it as he raised his Spirit Staff of Might.

2023-07-05 07:21:25 +0000 UTC View PostXavier thought about it and… he couldn’t leave the others behind. Dragging them along would no doubt mean losing any chance at getting a spot in the top 100, but chances were they would still be able to clear this floor before anyone else in their tower, especially since he was already so far ahead.
And he ...
2023-07-05 07:20:30 +0000 UTC View PostXavier felt like a whirlwind of death.
A whirlwind of death. That sounds awesome.
He didn’t know that slaughtering monsters could be so… fun. A small pang of guilt still lived within him because he was enjoyingkilling. But if he were going to become strong enough to defend Earth, the...
2023-07-04 19:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostXavier stood just outside the small archway outside of the Safe Zone on the second floor of the Tower of Champions, facing down two ugly beasts that bounded toward him.
They were coming at him fast, but with his Speed being what it was he had plenty of time to scan them.

Xavier Collins took up the Spirit Staff of Might. The staff looked rather different to the wooden staff he’d first received when he’d chosen the Basic Mage class.
The moment he’d accepted the purchase of the staff, it had appeared in his hand. And… it felt right. He’d felt the boosts it offered him th...
2023-07-02 19:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostXavier took Siobhan’s advice, acquiring the two skills she’d recommended he learn: Physical Resistance and Magical Potency.
You have learned the skill Physical Resistance!

You’re used to taking a beating, and now you’ve got the sk...
2023-07-01 19:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostThe others gathered around Siobhan as she began to talk, though Xavier got the sneaking suspicion that Howard and Justin would already know everything she was about to say, considering they’d all been holed up in the same cabin for the past few hours.
Siobhan raised a finger. “First, I can’t believe how fast you m...
2023-06-30 19:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostQuick note: I've renamed this series "Accidental Champion" instead of "Accidental Champion of Earth".
Xavier made sure he didn’t pass up the opportunity to loot the dead Puma Prime. In fact, as he only had thirty seconds, he decided to make some room in his Storage Ring for the big beast and its halberd.
He look...
2023-06-29 19:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostXavier watched the two Black Pumas slam into the stone floor of the temple.

Xavier raised his staff, gripped in both hands, over his head as he stretched out his sore back. He’d been running for the past ten minutes, through the forest’s underbrush, and was yet to encounter another monster.
The number of monsters had been spread out so equally across the...
2023-06-27 19:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostYour health is at 1%.
The notification stared at him. Goaded him. It was the only bloody thing that he could see.
I won’t let this be the end.
Heavy Telekinesis—bless the short cooldown of that spell—was ready to be used again. The feeling in his mind was like being let free. ...
2023-06-26 19:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostXavier whipped around and faced all thirty-five level 10 Black Pumas. Fear welled up inside him. Instincts, ancient and primal, begged him to run. But other instincts were forming inside Xavier. Ones that told him to fight. To stand his ground. There were the very same instincts that had gotten him through the quest with the ...
2023-06-25 19:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostXavier stood in the middle of the dark forest on the first floor of the Tower of Champions, staring down ten massive level 10 Black Pumas each twice the size of a lion. Their eyes glowed an eerie yellow and their fangs and claws looked sharper than ever.
The grey Mage robes Xavier wore felt thinner than ever, too, and h...
2023-06-24 19:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostAs much as Xavier appreciated Howard pushing him on, he wasn’t sure how long the other three would be holed up in that cabin. He hoped it would only be a few hours, but if it was longer, then they would definitely need something to eat.
So he withdrew a few things from his Storage Ring that he’d managed to pilfer fr...
2023-06-23 19:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostThe monster was on him before he even had a chance to scan it, but Xavier was still faster. He cast Spiritual Trifecta as he heard a roar permeate the air and watched as the big, black cat soared through the air toward him.
Perhaps it thinks I’m the weakest in front because I’m not wearing armour.

2023-06-22 19:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostStanding before the door that would have them enter the first floor of the Tower of Champions, Xavier explained to his party members what different titles he possessed, and what that meant for his stats.
For the most part, they’d looked at him with scepticism, but as he had no reason to lie, they seemed to take him at...
2023-06-21 19:00:07 +0000 UTC View Post“Hologram,” Siobhan muttered. “Gotta be a hologram.”
Howard grunted. “The world’s gone to hell, it has…”
“I think we should be quiet,” Justin whispered.
Xavier straightened in his chair, looking at the bearded hologram.
For a few seconds, it just stood there, then it began to speak....
2023-06-20 20:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostXavier felt oddly giddy and nervous as he walked up the stairs. He wasn’t the only one heading up there. There were about twenty people walking up the same set of stairs as him. None of them talked to each other, but they all had a mix of eagerness and dread upon their faces.
As he looked at them, Xavier couldn’t he...
