2025-07-10 07:36:10 +0000 UTCI don't remember if Jakaar is the Diamond-ranked leader of the pirate fleet, or the Gold-ranked captain of the single pirate ship that attempted to invade Earth, but they are two distinct characters. There are no Diamond rankers on Earth, they are banned until Jason is Diamond.

2025-03-06 15:39:52 +0000 UTCThis may have been asked before but have the graphic novels been published?
Dawn Stubitsch
2025-02-27 14:43:44 +0000 UTC“No idea. Let’s go ask people smarter than us.” That pretty much sums it up for me, Jason’s the most intelligent protagonist in any litrpg I’ve read.
David Thomas
2025-02-11 02:18:33 +0000 UTCI bet it's similar to when the eye of the storm hits you, it's so eerie when all of a sudden everything gets so quiet and the air is still...
Jessica Olson
2025-02-10 03:49:27 +0000 UTCI just power read through book 12 up to now and it does have continuity so maybe it is because you're having breaks between the chapters?
Jessica Olson
2025-02-10 03:47:30 +0000 UTCI mean just look at a fraction of what scientist did in the last hundred years especially around nuclear research... It's been shown in normal history that humans are incredibly stupid.
Jessica Olson
2025-02-10 03:46:30 +0000 UTCNo because she specifically said she lost control of him. I think he's now being controlled by whatever was in that box or whatever holds that thing strings... One of the reasons they needed to get away was because once his control was shifted whoever can then use his explosion powers on them.
Jessica Olson
2025-02-10 03:45:12 +0000 UTCFun, maybe you need better hobbies. 🤔 But really the kill the girlfriend for the main antagonist to have pain is a boring trope that's overdone. And already been done at least once in this series. Not to mention she's world class above any gold rankers on earth. She likely would have taken down that group of eight gold rankers faster than Jason did.
Jessica Olson
2025-02-10 03:42:58 +0000 UTCMakes me think they're getting infected by HR seminars...
Jessica Olson
2025-02-10 03:39:13 +0000 UTCHe's diamond rank he can't. Also before they got in because they had an invitation and now they don't have an excuse for entry. I'm pretty sure he'll be wary about sending more of his gold rank crew in even if he does get another excuse.
Jessica Olson
2025-02-10 03:37:04 +0000 UTCRoasted nuts, but yeah.
Chris Furry
2025-02-08 22:29:39 +0000 UTCIs Jarkaar and his gang ever going to pull up to the cookout? Just wondering

Issei Hyoudou
2025-02-06 18:12:25 +0000 UTCshe can become intangible. They yesterday it by throwing baked goods through her head right after she got it. I think it's time for you to reread the series lmao
Issei Hyoudou
2025-02-06 18:09:54 +0000 UTCNo, I think the weasel was introduced in this book. He's obviously a self-impressed evil scientist who has been working to create all the new nasties. It's fortunate that he underestimates Jason since that''s who will defeat him.and destroy his disgusting creations. Maybe Jason will turn Colin loose to eat all the people who are playing host to the parasite monsters?
Laura Hemly
2025-02-06 17:51:43 +0000 UTCInteresting thought. We didn't learn about Umber by accident!
Laura Hemly
2025-02-06 17:32:52 +0000 UTCOf course! Thanks, I clearly had a serious brain fart there. And yes, I love Boris, too. He can be so serious and helpful, and then he turns into such a sleaze with women. Usually that kind if idiocy annoys me, but Boris is so completely unsuccessful it's just funny!
Laura Hemly
2025-02-06 17:25:14 +0000 UTCIt's clearly a summoned familiar, so even if it was slain it could return with a ritual, the way it was originally summoned.
Laura Hemly
2025-02-06 17:15:57 +0000 UTCBoris is the main unorthodox messenger that Jason works with I think
Doug
2025-02-06 16:54:59 +0000 UTCSince we’re bringing up not remembering people, who was Simon Mckean? Was he in books 4-6?
Doug
2025-02-06 16:47:20 +0000 UTCGelling no longer has a master, he's lost his mind, and the last chapter was a lot of back story about shades brother. Tie in perhaps?
Michael Romo
2025-02-06 16:36:26 +0000 UTCHoly crap. You right but holy crap
Michael Romo
2025-02-06 16:00:08 +0000 UTCI think that's the point. Somethings can be forgiven but not forgotten. Dude was broken and she only pushed him further away. Now the one she pushed away is now the most important person in the entire world. And she is a status kinda person. He might become friendly to her but they won't have a good relationship. Just like with Amy. They aren't gonna be friends ever again.
Michael Romo
2025-02-06 15:57:32 +0000 UTCPhrasing.
Michael Romo
2025-02-06 15:54:17 +0000 UTCI thought they were the same one as the guy that lives in HR haha. But yes my thoughts exactly
Michael Romo
2025-02-06 15:53:36 +0000 UTCTime for Zara to show off.... heck yes.
Michael Romo
2025-02-06 15:51:40 +0000 UTCI really hope that cat familiar is okay.

Tempitheadem
2025-02-06 08:32:02 +0000 UTCI'm drawing a blank. Who-s Boris, again? (I mean, I've only been through the series at least 15 times!)
Laura Hemly
2025-02-06 07:50:46 +0000 UTCGood point, @ABTelford! Shade probably hitched a ride with Marie a while back. He's good that way.
Laura Hemly
2025-02-06 07:47:39 +0000 UTCOh! That also means there’s a Shade with them now because otherwise how could the princess have timed the turn off so perfectly? Woohoo fun times
ABTelford
2025-02-06 06:10:17 +0000 UTCOr with Boris - I love Boris

2025-02-06 03:57:24 +0000 UTCIt was book 2, Sophie got her powers and adventure society membership in time for the Reaper Trials.
Chris Furry
2025-02-06 02:54:21 +0000 UTCThat's what I'm thinking, yeah.
Stephanie Washburn
2025-02-06 02:34:25 +0000 UTCOoh I forget about the intangibility. That makes sense I was thinking about her line of sight ‘teleport’
Pierce
2025-02-06 02:22:03 +0000 UTCZara is a gold rank adventurer specializing in storm based destruction. Marie is a bureaucrat and Elizabeth is without Gerling. Both are in deep water with little resources or powers. Also I doubt Zara decided to find and fight them alone. Even if she did, she likely has a Shade with her and Jason can jump to her instantly.
mhaj58
2025-02-06 01:53:10 +0000 UTCHuh... the hurricane turned off like with a switch? Like...a certain hurricane princess?
Brad Gammey
2025-02-06 01:45:54 +0000 UTCHer teleport power is Mirage Step. I remember when she got it Jason told her it took him a while to get a handle on his shadow step ability so she shouldn't expect to be able to do it immediately. So of course she immediately teleported beside him. Ah, good times.
Marty P.
2025-02-06 01:32:19 +0000 UTCI'm guessing gold rank, maybe its more of a, turn into air thing, or just a, move so fast that she phases through things? It seems pretty short range though since she had to move closer to the plane.
Gingix

2025-02-06 01:21:33 +0000 UTCLiterally militant feminism is a wonderful new phrase. Thanks for the chapter

Forrest
2025-02-06 00:55:03 +0000 UTCUhmm Jason would have to destroy earth or face the storm kingdom
AfroMocha
2025-02-06 00:54:59 +0000 UTCAnd to call Jason a fool. I know he's a bit much but when yes serious he scares people. The Builder had a way to back door his soul and he was like "nope done that not again mate" I'm sorry earth people don't know about the cosmos at large but it gets to a point where people hire interdimensional pirates and not stop to think "hey do we really know what's going on?"

Soli116
2025-02-06 00:35:25 +0000 UTCOnce a parent says "You were a difficult child" as an excuse for treating you poorly, they've already lost you. By that point, and in that context, there's not a lot of coming back.
Soli116
2025-02-06 00:35:04 +0000 UTCNaw, he’s a good boy! 🙂
joseph peltier
2025-02-06 00:28:56 +0000 UTCI believe the ability is called mist step? Briefly makes her intangible so she can step through walls or other objects. Add some gold rank flair to that and voila
Jon Stanfield
2025-02-06 00:26:52 +0000 UTCIt was like her third power after getting essences. Cloud step or something. Let’s her push off air like it’s solid and gives a brief moment of intangibility.
Hayden Leech
2025-02-06 00:23:47 +0000 UTCI genuinely like Elizabeth. Since she was first introduced. Shame she’s evil Also, since when can Sophie teleport? (Like genuine teleport through objects)
Pierce
2025-02-06 00:19:46 +0000 UTCTim!! Noooo! With just a few lines of dialogue, Tim was a well defined, interesting character who died way too soon. I would have loved to have read an interaction between him and Sophie.
Jro
2025-02-06 00:14:20 +0000 UTC1. Team Biscuit are Jason's moral compas in a sense. 2. Jason's will be livid beyond belief. 3. How long has Zara been part of team Biscuit? Hence, how livid is Jason's moral compas people gonna be? 4. Conclusion, if Zara dies, Earth is toast. Jason's likely to just resettle the good ones into his Astral Kingdom and tell Colin to forget everything Jason's taught him.

Alicia Bolick
2025-02-06 00:13:15 +0000 UTCIt does look that way, doesn't it?
Joanna
2025-02-06 00:07:54 +0000 UTCMarie was only introduced this book. She's the one who coordinated the mess with the gold rank manifestation in Pakistan, and I believe that's the very first time we've seen her. Elisabeth we know, of course. @ThreeErmz, I'm pretty sure it's mainly the way we're reading it chapter by chapter. Plus we just got back from a big break in the schedule, that worsens it. I trust it'll flow much better once the whole book comes together
Joanna
2025-02-06 00:07:08 +0000 UTCI feel you, AfroMocha. To be 'fair' to this Simon guy, he was smart enough to understand everything Farah taught him about ritual magic and interdimensional whatsis, and misogynist enough to figure he understood it all _better_ than her because penis! *Sigh*
Joanna
2025-02-06 00:02:35 +0000 UTCHonestly, at this point I'm imagining a horde of blood oak/Gerling monstrosities trying to destroy the planet. That could be fun
Joanna
2025-02-05 23:58:35 +0000 UTCFeminism or fistfight! Either way, Sophie is content with it.
Thomas Froehling
2025-02-05 23:42:27 +0000 UTCI had a good relationship with my Mom too, and I miss her now that she's gone. But Cheryl had no time for Jason when he needed her. So she brought that on herself. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. As for myself, I have two sons, and we have a good relationship because both know that I will always love them, come what may. I might not necessarily approve of their choices (my eldest thinks he's a woman) but I will always love them. That means a lot to both of them. :-D
ShowBizGAL 1996
2025-02-05 23:39:02 +0000 UTCAlso Shirt needs to stop introducing people from 5 books ago and expect us to just remember who they are without reminding us in-story. The last several chapters have been about Marie but I don’t even know who the fuck she is besides being some evil Network girl working with the vampire queen lmao.

Justin Crisler
2025-02-05 23:26:52 +0000 UTCShe has lost her chance for that. Cutting out toxic parents was the win here.
Justin Crisler
2025-02-05 23:25:39 +0000 UTCI really wish we’d stop getting so many POV’s of random nobodies or of the bad guys. I give zero shits about Marie and Elizabeth and yearn for them to turn into smears beneath Jason’s boots just so I never have to read a POV chapter of their’s again.
MoonlitShade
2025-02-05 23:25:31 +0000 UTCShe keeps dimensional storage ring on her ti help with her outfits it's mentioned when she first talks to Jason

2025-02-05 23:13:37 +0000 UTCDoubtful she says she’s lost her connection not that he’s dead I’m getting being going to be controlled by the scientist now
John Collier
2025-02-05 23:13:29 +0000 UTCIts the latest arms race. Doesn't matter that each could have blown up the world thru chain reactions - only that they had the biggest stick. And Honestly Jason is his own worst enemy when it comes to being taken seriously. He just talks so much shit all the time then goes murderhobo. Its like dealing with the The Joker from Heith Ledger. Their both Chuniis

Der Ritter
2025-02-05 22:53:03 +0000 UTCMmm. I want to agree with you but Biscuits is better for the team. If you put any individuals name on the ledger you downplay all the other players. Everyone can be a creator of Biscuits or a joyer of Biscuits. For fun I'll serve up "The Colin Airy Delights" ; "My supper dish, my succotash wish"
John Durrett
2025-02-05 22:46:55 +0000 UTCDiamond rank Colin is going to scour earth clean
Forrest
2025-02-05 22:46:11 +0000 UTCNow’s probably not the time, but I really hope that Jason gets time to rebuild his relationship with Cheryl. I’ve always had a good relationship with my mom and want the same thing for him.
mhaj58
2025-02-05 22:45:27 +0000 UTCOooh if Elizabeth and Marie kill Zara, or they lead the Blood Oak Gerling to her and she dies, it will be fun to see what happens! TFTC
Tom C
2025-02-05 22:43:19 +0000 UTCGerling’s soul is completely f**ked and requires extensive recycling by the reaper I think
Tom C
2025-02-05 22:39:12 +0000 UTCNot by a long shot is my bet.
John Durrett
2025-02-05 22:38:39 +0000 UTCI'll sum up my understanding if it helps. The oldest Vampires need Reality Cores (RC's) to survive and rank up. Those vampires are in competition with world high rankers for the same resources. Some of those Vamps used the RC's in experiments resulting in the Bloody Trees. Bloody Trees are being secreted (planted) around the world as dirty bombs to keep competition as well as enemies on the back foot or busy fighting them while RC's are being exposed and collected. Jason is there to shut down access to RC's once and for all before the Big Earth Balloon pops. Someone that Elizabeth was working with was working the blood tree thing experiments and are now a rogue faction that has splintered off. We can give thanks that Gods are not involved yet. :)

2025-02-05 22:32:59 +0000 UTCContinuity error.... Elisabeth's clothes were shredded off of her when she broke out of the sub, but later 'her clothes were draped around her perfectly'.
David Cooper
2025-02-05 22:32:38 +0000 UTCI love having Sophie and Jason handle crazy body snatcher + falling plane danger like it’s just another Tuesday. Great way to further illustrate the power of elite Palli gold rankers and underscore how godlike Jason would seem to Earthlings like Holly.
Chiqui Joy
2025-02-05 22:30:27 +0000 UTCno, I understand that but that being said if some interdimensional hopping loon goes around saying something is bad and everything he said up to this point has been proven, right I don’t really think I’m going to turn around and be like oh this guy is an idiot he has no idea what he’s talking about. Like let’s break it down here this dude essentially teamed up with what I can only assume is the equivalent of Nazis to advances magical understanding instead of being above board turning on Marie and Elizabeth going to the network and possibly being interesting enough that Clive could take him on.
AfroMocha
2025-02-05 22:28:16 +0000 UTCTeam Colin would have been the better response
Darkdragon
2025-02-05 22:27:47 +0000 UTCThat was a charming little surprise the weasel hid in his box! But does anyone else think that perhaps this time Gerling is finally really dead? Much as I've detested him for multiple books, I ended up feeling sorry for him, trapped the way he was. Anyway, I guess we'll find out. I just hope it's not by some of the Storm Kingdom people running into the monster that was just released into Earth's oceans!
Laura Hemly
2025-02-05 22:26:59 +0000 UTCWell, We do have C.E.R.N. But then much of science, chemistry etc work against the unknown all the time. Its how major advancements are made.
