Chapter 68

While Johanne was putting herself in unnecessary danger, Michael was at his property—that some had taken to calling Site 00—to deal with annoyances.

“What should we do with him?” asked a gruff Old Dave, hands on his hips, as he looked down at the bound form of Mustang. The fat man looked like a ...

The alarm blared in Michael’s ear like a tornado siren. Bleary eyed, he noticed that it wasn’t even light outside and momentarily cursed himself for having a better physique that didn’t require as much sleep now as it did before. It robbed him of the little moments, he felt as he refreshed himself with ...

Two courageous martial artists who had the strength to train despite the late July’s heat exchanged whispers among themselves. The dojo was a small, cramped affair with only a wall of mirrors and a diminutive window to the side, with barely any air circulation. It was an uncomfortable arrangement, but it dr...

Chapter 65

The biggest gains, at least in the stories, are always said to happen in the heat of battle. Where the threat of dying is the stronger, in the struggle to stay alive in the face of impossible odds, something clicks inside the main character’s brain and he finally finds a way to gain the upper hand. Michael ...

Chapter 64

The third floor was similar to the first floor. However, while the first was made of a series of dark caves in sequence, leading to the boss room, the third was a collection of rooms. They were carved out of sandstone, and connected via a series of tortuous corridors that confused the senses. Torches lit the ...

Travis Tyrell, CEO of PetroLink Global, now a subsidiary of Unity Corp, paced around his spacious downtown office. He had just finished convincing the board of directors that yes, renouncing their independence to go under the control of a newly made, small, insignificant company with no assets owned by a nobo...

The next day, Michael was back in the dungeon. Real life felt hazy at times, compared to here, where everything was more vibrant and real. Only around the dungeon, where mana was spreading, and inside of it did reality feel solid. Michael pondered over these questions as he walked around the valley. Soon he w...

That night, Michael slept fitfully. It was an unexpected thing, especially after many days spent in the dungeon with not even a hint of a bad dream. It was as if the spirits themselves were encroaching upon his mind, coming from other planes of existence and from the mana in the air itself. It was a stifling,...

“What’s the name you came up with, then?” Travis asked, clearly impatient.

“I will call it: Unity. And its vision shall be to shape a better future for humanity and all other sapient races we might encounter in our travels.”

“You have come to a decision, then.” Said Old Dave gravely,...

Michael stared at the white skill stone in his hand as if it was a white-hot, scalding piece of molten metal. For all intents and purposes, it might very well be one. Not that he did not earn it, because he sure did. More like because, in light of what he learned about the dungeon, he was growing ever more wa...

“What’s your name?” Michael asked.

“I am called Johanne of the Roses,” the woman said. Far from meek, now that she knew Michael would not abandon her it was like she was living for the first time. She was energetic, studying even the dull room they were in with interest.

“An lovely nam...

Chapter 57

The dungeon had mentioned a companion as a reward for clearing the second floor’s quest, long ago. Michael had long thought Drullkrin was going to be it, a loyal followed he had earned through hard work, but it seemed that it was not to be. Drullkrin was dead now.

Instead, the dungeon had transported ...

They spoke for a long time. As per agreement, Michael shared things about his world: the presence of technology, how society operated, how several powerful nations controlled the world, the whole introduction. Theobond was not as surprised by technology and the scientific method as Michael thought a member of...

“A monster?” Michael asked reflexively. He didn’t know if his strategy worked, but he had a theory that displaying emotion and quick reactions was throwing Theobond off balance.

“That is correct.” The king of the castle said, “you must understand how you look from our perspective. The differ...

Michael wiped the sweat from his forehead. It was a hot day, heading into the thick of the summer heat, and the late hour had done nothing to diminish the discomfort. If anything, it seemed to have gotten more humid, the heat stickier and even more uncomfortable.

He had been doing multiple dungeon runs....

A message appeared in Michael’s field of vision as soon as the process was finalized.

When Michael woke up the next day, he realized just how tired he had been the day before. While yesterday’s paranoia had been entirely justified, perhaps his state of mind had amplified it by an excessive amount.

Now that it had all boiled over, like a pot of water left on a stove, all that was left w...

There was a momentary pause after Michael announced that he would think about the vision for his future company. During that time he thought he had somehow fucked up, and some of his insecurities came back. He tried to school his face under the hard gazes of the other two men in the room, and he thought he wa...

After Dave was gone, Michael went to talk with Dr Kavins. The doctor was ecstatic to tell Michael all about the newest people now working at Saint Hernest, about what sort of research they were doing and about how it would help Michael do a lot of good in the world.

When talking to the doctor about recr...

I'm thinking about making a discord. It would be a community to talk about my books, chat and discuss the chapters of the day. You could point out mistakes, discuss theories about what's going to happen, suggest new characters and plot points, skills and much more. There would also be a patron-exclusive tier with access to di...

Chapter 48

The stampede was an endless outpour of monsters, coming from the far end of the tunnel and boxing Michael and his team in with no means to escape. The tunnel leading to the king’s chamber had been a long and winding thing with no side exits, and now that the monsters were coming from behind, the only way th...

Sorry for the late chapter, but yesterday I was away and could not post. I'll make it up to you, though :P

The fight went on for what felt like hours, but there was no way to tell the passage of time deep down below the ice. The only thing that was changing was that Michael felt increasingly exhausted, ...

The first enemy was waiting for them at the bend of the tunnel and, like an inactive sentry, it immediately locked onto them as soon as they got close enough to it. It was a creature made of ice and spikes, deep blue like the walls of the tunnel it inhabited. It charged at Michael with a roar, crossing the sp...

“Sire, changes are happening in the valley, many changes.” Drullkrin, who had rushed to Michael as soon as the man had appeared in the valley, said.

“What sort of changes?”

“The scouting parties of the snow people, they stopped all of a sudden. I had thought it was a good thing, and it w...

Later that morning, Michael went to the private care facility that he owned to perform some partial healing on a few patients. With the improvements to his skill, it felt easier and quicker than ever to do the miracles, and a new streamlined procedure ensured that there were no incidents.

“Chi and Jing,” Michael repeated himself, “I just got a skill upgrade, identifying what I’m seeing as those two kinds of energy. I have never heard of them before, though. Do you know what they are?”

Judging by Stephan’s hard and focused gaze, Michael knew that he knew. Stephan sighed, wonde...

Michael sat in the back of his car, enjoying the ride. The day was far from over, but his long rest inside the dungeon had him feel like this was a whole new day. Only ten minutes has passed in the outside world while, to him, it had been a few enjoyable days of rest.

However, returning to the real worl...
