Thanks for the chapter. It was lovely as always.

2025-11-11 22:55:58 +0000 UTCThe achievement part was a bit tongue in cheek this time. Another interpretation is that he overexerted himself and burned himself out a little, which had more lasting consequences than usual so far away from his tree house. But attacking eldrich abominations when he's so weak is definitely the opposite of sustainable changes to the future of the universe, which said universe naturally takes into account when assigning resources. As nature does.

I guess the Inspired inventor agrees with me considering the penalty.

2025-11-10 23:56:36 +0000 UTCThe main plot will stay in DxD, this is just him looking for a safety net for what he does on the upcoming Winter Solstice. Plot-wise, i'm not adding Arcane because of superhuman powers, I'm doing it for the hextech. And because, as with Michael Corvin, I have a thing about wanting to give a break to sidelined protagonists. People also tend to dislike OCs in fanfics, usually.

2025-11-10 16:08:11 +0000 UTCAs always, I'm fine with my foreshadowing being overlooked if it's sufficiently obvious in hindsight. In this case, Heimerdinger's song in chapter 4.

2025-11-10 16:04:56 +0000 UTCWell I'm still optimistic but this chapter wasn't really to my liking, maybe it's due to not knowing anything about LoL, but it also seems redundant, if already the MC can create ultimate humans through cloning memories and biological editing and is just gonna do the same with whoever he finds along the way, why is he even recruiting from other universes? It feels like filler... Honestly, I hope the focus stays on DxD, which as seen with vampires and werewolves is an AU with other stories mixed in, so a lot to explore. Nothing to say against the author, but the prose is very verbose, and this is really nice, but if the story starts to take on the multiverse as well as an AU DxD world with in depth mythologies of most civilisations, I can't imagine the story ever developing.

2025-11-10 15:49:07 +0000 UTCAh, The Little Prince! Bless him! If this were a Fables crossover on top of everything, I pray he may remain the bona-fide article, and not be one of Kevin Thorn's, or any other demiurge-storyteller created deconstructive variants! I mean The OG Prince Charming, Fat-Frumos is golden haired and was raised by a hermit after all, not a dark haired rascal who grew up surrounded by luxury like some of his other counterparts!
