2026-03-05 16:40:34 +0000 UTCI’ve been re-reading the books on KU and just finished 14. I can’t believe how far the story has come since then! Jake’s about to confront the Holy rollers about Ell’Kabong’s soul. Yes, I know, wrong names but I’m really bad at recalling the correct ones. I can’t wait until March to at least finish that arc so I’ll be reading on RR or here. Probably RR since their interface is better on my phone.

2026-01-14 18:46:53 +0000 UTCI feel like Zog wanted to make this dungeon a whole book but someone told him not too so thats why minaga forgot to give them the lore book and why its so fast forwarded, not complaining, i love how its flowing though. I feel i would get bored reading dungeon clearing over and over. Thank you for the chapters

2025-11-23 05:51:42 +0000 UTCCouldn't Minaga mass produce C-grade Minagas and launch them all at the 93rd universe now that it's opening up? Could be fun
Josie
2025-11-22 20:43:57 +0000 UTCAlways a rough feeling - especially being this close to B grade and all the exciting developments that will bring.

2025-11-22 17:48:12 +0000 UTCJake and Casper exit the dungeon. Miranda is waiting for them with a wrapped present. Jake gives it to Casper, "a little gift as a thank you for doing the dungeon with me." Casper unwraps it and is confused why Jake would give him black lipstick, mascara, and black hair die." Jake tells him he wants to support his life decisions and understands that this isn't just an emo phase he is going through.

2025-11-22 13:20:38 +0000 UTCI love that idea, I feel like Jake is a natural born god but it would be kinda lame if we got no racial updates until godhood.

2025-11-22 12:37:56 +0000 UTCI've figured out how the system will be created. A billionaire gets upset that the professional athlete he just gave 80 million a year to gets hurt in his first game. He tells his secret and very illegal AI to come up with a way to know a person's true status, abilities, and potential. The AI hacks into a secret government facility and releases nanobots. After the billionaire passes away, the ai decides to release the access to "the system" to everybody.

2025-11-22 05:09:22 +0000 UTCdon't forget to come here and ask us trivia questions about the more interesting things you read. I stick with my prediction that someone comes up to Jake in some random place to pay him

2025-11-21 22:23:03 +0000 UTCWeekend question: in chapter 1239, Villy gives Jake the bounty token to cash in the bounty for killing the dragon…will he ever do that? It could be a fun side-quest. And yes, I’m reading back chapters because I want Mmoooooorrre!

2025-11-21 18:45:13 +0000 UTCI also must say, I can not stop visiulizing Villys face when his chosen would be squashed by JONES. That would be a turn of things no one would have seen coming.

Asher Mack
2025-11-21 16:33:01 +0000 UTCIt won't kill her unless Casper dies but it does seem like it will have some kind of lasting negative effect at least for a while
Rob Lyon

JW Saxby
2025-11-21 15:49:42 +0000 UTCHe already has the basis of it with Event Horizon. The end of its description is "for now, a mere glimpse of the Event Horizon is all you are capable of, knowing it carries the promise of an endless domain to one day make your own." I reckon it will be some time before it goes beyond it's current form to something greater.

Jan
2025-11-21 15:23:41 +0000 UTCNo confirmation either way. Literally no one in the book knows the answer so the only way to get confirmation would be to read Zogarths mind
ThatGuy
2025-11-21 15:17:40 +0000 UTCHas it been confirmed that Jake will get race quests at level 349 or not? He’ll most definitely reach it after this boss and I assume he won’t get one again.

2025-11-21 14:40:33 +0000 UTCVery interesting however I think it is if Jake despairs
Rewdan
2025-11-21 14:31:24 +0000 UTCLyra's true soul is tied to the locket so she not dead. Her loving boyfriend/phylactery just used despair energy or something to blow her up and cover everything in sadness vibes. Is this where we find about how Pride "wanes in despair"? Jakes domain-like affect is suppressed or is far weaker than normal?

Ben Sheahan
2025-11-21 13:51:45 +0000 UTCNo, he re-entered ethereal form in this chapter to avoid the boss until the lightning attacks tore through him
Daniel Jackson-Woods
2025-11-21 13:47:19 +0000 UTCJake's going to create his own domain skill isnt he?
Daniel Jackson-Woods
2025-11-21 13:46:07 +0000 UTCSurged backwards? Also any direction other than the direction the danger is located can be considered a retreat
marland lewis
2025-11-21 13:45:45 +0000 UTCIf I'm remembering correctly, her true soul actually remains inside Casper's locket, which means this isn't likely her dying. I'm guessing it's a powerful skill with a LOT of drawbacks for Lyra, including heavy emotional strain since this looks like an insane concentration of incredibly sad curse energy he just flooded her body with. Can't wait for Monday's chapter!
Dan
2025-11-21 13:37:25 +0000 UTCRee!
Sylphie
2025-11-21 13:35:33 +0000 UTCTFTC :) Have a fun weekend peeps :) Suggested edits: "Jake *retreated* backwards," redundant because what other direction do you retreat in? :) Change retreated to "shot" or "flew" or ditch "backwards" maybe. "*fueling* energy into the corpse" should be "funneling" "avoid being caught *up to*." awkward phrasing. ditch these two. "Having failed to easily *get Jake off*" you said you go for americanisms so I'll just say, phrasing :D maybe try "remove Jake/the threat" instead " instantly feeling that while the golem’s soul was weaker than he’d expected. " missing the end of the sentence or "while" is excess. "over the black *spoke* harmlessly." should be "smoke"
Xander
2025-11-21 13:03:57 +0000 UTCPretty sure Lyra is like Bertram where she can’t really “die” unless the thing she is bound to is destroyed (the locket bound to Casper)

2025-11-21 13:00:58 +0000 UTCON TODAY’S EPISODE OF, THE PRIMAL HUNTER! The Labyrinth Master has fallen! But wait! Just when victory seemed guaranteed, a terrifying transformation begins! Fueled by a bolt of blue lightning, the boss rises from the ashes! No longer a cyborg of flesh and blood, it has become a machine of pure destruction! Behold the Aginian Crisis Protocol Golem! Jake’s Arcane Powershot strikes true, yet it is useless against the Golem’s impenetrable barrier! The situation is dire for Casper! As a being of ghostly energy, the Risen is critically weak against the Golem’s lightning attacks! The mechanical monstrosity ignores Jake entirely, focusing its unrelenting fury solely on eradicating Casper! Desperate to save his friend, Jake engages the beast in brutal close quarters combat! He wraps his limbs around the metallic giant, using the Touch of the Malefic Viper to corrode its defenses! But the enemy is too strong! The Golem overcharges its core to one hundred and fifty percent capacity, unleashing a shockwave of devastation! With Casper on the brink of death, Jake pushes his Primal Gaze to the absolute limit! He strains his very soul to buy his ally mere seconds of time! In a heartbreaking turn of events, Casper bids a tearful farewell to Lyra! A massive explosion of black smoke swallows the arena! The Risen has unleashed a power that defies belief! A Domain Skill known as the Necropolis of Loss! Will this tragic sacrifice be enough to stop the mechanical menace? Can the Primal Hunter and the Risen survive this overwhelming power? Find out next time on! THE PRIMAL HUNTER!
Cory S.
2025-11-21 12:59:03 +0000 UTC"He activated Primal Gaze, instantly feeling that while the golem’s soul was weaker than he’d expected." Is the "while" supposed to be here or is there supposed to be a second half to this sentence
Zimidiaz
2025-11-21 12:50:49 +0000 UTCThanks for the chapter and another evil cliffhanger. Hope everyone has a great weekend. Edit suggestion: He activated Primal Gaze, instantly feeling that w̶h̶i̶l̶e̶ the golem’s soul was weaker than he’d expected
Loststar7
2025-11-21 12:50:29 +0000 UTCThat or it causes her immense pain and the strength of the skill comes from the strong emotions felt by both of them. Casper’s love and guilt for inflicting her pain and Lyra’s love and acceptance of said pain. But loss seems like a stronger term than that so you’re probably more accurate than me on it being a full on sacrifice skill, similar to Jacob and Bertram but stronger and with more backlash on Lyra
Thekoopa20
2025-11-21 12:49:58 +0000 UTCIt probably hurts her a lot, or it makes her disperse for a while. There's no way he'd risk her actual death when fleeing was still on the table.
Seiryus
2025-11-21 12:43:05 +0000 UTCIdk if Casper would like Jake's juice inside Lyra.
Kyler
2025-11-21 12:40:42 +0000 UTCWell dang, that got dangerous real quick. Not feeling happy thoughts about what might be happening to Lyra.
djthomp
2025-11-21 12:40:18 +0000 UTCCreative use of skills, good callbacks to show growth, shows the weakness of event horizon, and keeps the enemy being terrifying, while keeping up high skill usage and high damage. Keeps the high marks, pacing is closest to lowering. Come on Jake Juicing the golem to create a body for Lyra, it would improve the soul bound item to be a golem with the locket. The reason it won't happen is you would want to empower Jacob at the same time.
Devillelouch
2025-11-21 12:38:08 +0000 UTCHe activated Primal Gaze, instantly feeling that (while) the golem’s soul was weaker than he’d expected. (Is the selected word needed?)
Alexander C Hyde
2025-11-21 12:37:16 +0000 UTCThere's no way Lyra is dead, considering the lengths Casper went to get her back. Which means whatever they're doing is a temporary sacrifice. Which means Casper being so sorrowful seems... Odd. Unless it's just because it's painful and he hates causing her pain. Because if she Does die from it, that'd be wildly out of character compared to what have been presented so far. Will be interesting to see next week.

2025-11-21 12:32:11 +0000 UTCWondering of the possibility of jake helping lyra with her evolution as repayment and to help his mate or if ghosts count as enlightened

2025-11-21 12:22:18 +0000 UTCThat’s what I’m hoping for I think That’s what Casper said a few chapters ago. Still sad.
Rewdan
2025-11-21 12:21:57 +0000 UTCHis ethereal body was sheared off, and immediately, Jake knew that the Risen had actually taken quite a bit of damage. (Wasn’t Casper back to corporeal form in the last chapter?)
Alexander C Hyde
2025-11-21 12:21:46 +0000 UTCWow this is simply amazing. I’m stuck here filled with anticipation and having to wait to Tuesday for the next chapter. This Friday cliffhanger hits HARDER,!
Rewdan
2025-11-21 12:20:10 +0000 UTCI wonder if its somewhat like the king in the mask situation. Lyra gets "sacrificed" for a huge power boost but she is returned to a soul form stuck coma like trance in the necklace until casper can do "x" to get her back.
Matthew Smith
2025-11-21 12:19:49 +0000 UTCI suspect weakened or temporarily gone. I'd think Casper would use an escape skill before permanently sacrificing her.

2025-11-21 12:10:13 +0000 UTCWait wtf ... Im assuming this is similar to a trans skill in that it has a significant backlash like loss of Lyra for awhile?
Gavin
2025-11-21 12:08:14 +0000 UTCNo Lyra!!!!
GeneralBlack
2025-11-21 12:03:34 +0000 UTCYou know, it's easy to forget how Casper and Lyra got so close in the first place because of how mundane it was.
