Chapter 1298 - Ambushing The Pursuers

I think Jake’s aversion to spiders is an interesting touch. Some studies have suggested that fear of spiders (and snakes) is an inborn quality of humans. It comes pre installed

2026-02-06 01:02:11 +0000 UTCi had the same thought of why its measured in years but i found my peace that its written in a time unit familiar with the one reading the message and it gets rounded...thats at least my theory

2026-02-05 06:36:33 +0000 UTCNow Jake I believe this falls under the same category as the mushroom worshiping monsters in that dungeon under your house with the fungalmancers in it. It is disturbing enough that genicide is the only answer.
That one, right there.
2026-02-05 04:07:14 +0000 UTCI just realized the freaky dream i had last night was heavily inspired by this minor world. Burn it all down, Jake. Just burn it all down 🔥

2026-02-05 01:13:05 +0000 UTChey now, wait a gosh darn second... ages and periods of time are often discussed in terms of "years", but in a multiverse, what the heck is a year? that's it. story is ruined for me. I won't read another chapter... stop cheering, that's mean!!!! i'm serious....I will not read another chapter until 3 o clock tomorrow morning. i'm out. uh, Just to clarify, I didn't say I wouldn't finish rereading this chapter.

2026-02-05 00:34:07 +0000 UTCThere will be some uber powerful Arachne that will challenge Jake in the next chapter or two.
Lemonsqueezy
2026-02-04 21:09:02 +0000 UTCIt is the nature of Jake, he only really gets experience when he fights really powerful foes. Level doesn't even really matter, they have to be a challenge for Jake or the system doesn't really give him much. Also, leveling as you move up grades just takes a long time. Could be thousands of years passing before Jake gets to A-Grade. It took about 690 chapters for Jake to go from C to B grade. That is over half of all the chapters that have been written just for C-Grade.

2026-02-04 21:02:08 +0000 UTCTwo chapters ago had Jake telling the A-Grade oracle that there are levels beyond A-Grade, but he doesn't tell them about creatures that have reached Godhood or the primordials. Just hints that there are levels significantly above what they thought was possible. I don't think it really matters, because I do not think these creatures can leave the minor world.
Lemonsqueezy
2026-02-04 21:01:47 +0000 UTCwait... do these creatures in the minor worlds even know about gods? or would they just laugh at jake if he told them about villy?
Jansemon
2026-02-04 20:51:06 +0000 UTCWe are looking at two scenarios here and they might both happen. 1) Jake commits another genocide and kills a significant amount of these Arachne. 2) The Venusians realize the true power of Jake and become very scared of who he is. This would either get the A-Grade involved kicking Jake out or trying to kill him, or trying to ally with him because of his power and possible/probable connections.
Lemonsqueezy
2026-02-04 20:07:27 +0000 UTCIt says he is more vulnerable to mental attacks and gaze is a two way attack. Might be an issue.

Jansemon
2026-02-04 16:55:50 +0000 UTCOk. I have some bones to pick. 1. What happened with the Void kidnappers? 2. Why are you taking a break from the Seat of the Prima? 3. I can’t be the only one who wants to know more about Villy’s wife and child. 4. The First Sage??? 5. The future World Wonder? What happened to following up on all those threads? Frogs? A- grades vs Jake? Only if he can somehow beat them. I think I’m gonna take a break from this series for a while. Shirtaloon is writing again, and though Dakota/ Sunrise CV is slower, he’s still going strong with his characters. See ya.

2026-02-04 10:24:08 +0000 UTCAgainst the universal laws (even though it's currently separated as a MW). So Jake wouldn't because it's not his mojo to kill anything lower than his level unless it's purely out of self defence.
Ray Light
2026-02-04 10:23:32 +0000 UTCTFTC :) Suggested edits: "probably *better even* from the " should be "even better" I think. Youre saying that the situation Jake finds himself in is preferable to his expected outcome, right? “Not saying you have to fight, but I don’t see why I *would*.” Should be "wouldn't" since the sentence refers to fighting rather than it refering to fleeing. "A battle would be a needless risk and *jeopardize* death" should be "jeopardize our lives" "The Shaman ** at Jake as if something" missing word "looked" "as he stopped flying and *allowed* exited the obscuring barrier" extra word. "a word Jake really wasn’t sure *if* made sense for the undead" extra word. " Jake’s danger sense warned him of incoming *danger* as" repetitive . I suggest "an incoming threat" instead.

2026-02-04 10:13:47 +0000 UTCGood question. No idea if the planet itself is still there or is now just a poison mist barrier to a private world.
John Durrett
2026-02-04 10:13:25 +0000 UTCI have a feeling the shaman is going to be like 'yeah you are strong but crazy and are the others in the outside world like you?" And Jake would be kinda depends. Jake definitely is the high risk high rewards sort but not everyone in the multiverse is like Jake. Hopefully Jake drops that he is a outlier in the fact the he has skills that allows him to punch above his weight when fighting, so the poor froggies can stop worrying that Jake will get himself killed. I don't think that they would have believed him before seeing him in action
khielira
2026-02-04 10:13:03 +0000 UTCThe Frogs are probably thinking to themselves, "it's a good thing we were friendly to him" right about now. They led this bloke straight through their city, and they had no idea. I have no further doubts about Jake having any issues with the Venusians from here on out. And im gonna look really stupid if the Zog-man decides that the Council of frogs makes my theory bullshit instead. 🤣 Lmao
Fylbrom
2026-02-04 10:02:27 +0000 UTCYeah Jake's new friends are totally unprepared to see what the peak of big game hunters at his level does to enemies "only" 40 or 50 levels above him. Tyftc
