Chapter 356: Mad Progress
The days continued to pass by as we all seemed to be settling into a routine.
Vee was continuing to expand her farm and was even teleporting to who knows where to collect various seeds, fruits, or vegetables. The highlight of her activities was when she began abducting livestock and declared she would become a rancher.
During his free time, Leon was either tinkering with parts or attempting to make new discoveries with his Novice ...

B3 - Chapter 12 - Dungeon Defiler
After what felt like an eternity, suddenly being in a body again felt momentarily strange for Arakil. He had hoped to never do such a thing with Lily, but the situation called for a level of proficiency that she was sadly lacking—he could never have predicted the dungeon would be so vindictive!
Arakil's solution was to temporarily puppeteer Lily's body, so he could keep any potential harm to an absolute minimum. He'd seen coun...

Chapter 355: Founding
With our future hometree being the equivalent of a city, we could be entirely self-sufficient, as the last remaining troublesome factor was access to class changes. While I could always sneak in as a human, the same could not be said for Vee and especially Leon.
Vee was registered with the guild, so as long as I showed up as Syl the elf, I shouldn't have too much trouble. Leon was a different story, however, and the only solution I could th...

"I can't believe that worked!" Lotte exclaimed triumphantly as they crossed over the bridge.
"S-slow down!" Thomas stammered through exhausted breaths.
"We… can't… keep up…" Lily gasped out. She was on the verge of pulling out another set of wind talismans to keep up.
Lotte suddenly realized she was still moving at the speed of the wind and dramatically slowed her pace. With the pressure of running away suddenly gone, t...

Chapter 354: Branch Out
"I hope our tree doesn't sound like an old man," Vee said as we were waiting for the big event.
"I don't think we get a choice in the matter," I replied. "We could get a Dran, or we could get a Juniper."
"But the diamond acorn came from Ygdran," Vee pointed out.
"You think that might have an influence on it?" I asked.
"Maybe? Isn't he the father?"
"Do trees have parents?"
"Everyone has parents."

B3 - Chapter 10 - Flowers
The night's watch was once again peaceful except for one occurrence: a floating eyeball appeared around the perimeter of the camp during Lily's turn.
It circled around the shadowy shroud that cloaked their camp as if not understanding why it was there. Lily could only assume that the eyes had some way of detecting their location regardless of where they were.
After a lengthy time spent poking and prodding at the barrier, it eventu...

Chapter 353: Magical Speedrun
The days seemed to fly by as we made collective progress towards the island. Vee was deadset on creating her farmlands and had been investing all her time and effort there. Leon was busy building the outposts on the edge of the island, as he couldn't create the main fortress until the treehome was grown.
That left me on tree growing duty, and boy was this thing hungry. I had thought my job the simplest of the group, but this thing's...

B3 - Chapter 9 - Treasure
"Hey, I think I found something!" Lotte yelled out.
The group was looking through the smoldering remains of the spider eggs to see if anything was left behind. According to their lessons, there was a good chance of there being a treasure of some sort if it was a major nest.
Lily arrived first and quickly cast a small water cleaning spell where Lotte pointed, washing away the ash and revealing something sparkling in the sunlight.

Chapter 352: Growing
I continued feeding the sapling with Mana, which was actually a considerable amount, all things considered. I had thought this would be a relatively simple job, but perhaps, due to the sheer complexity of the plant involved, it required far more than usual.
More is good, though; it should give more experience, right?
[Nature Magic] was very weird to me, as it sort of flew in the face of everything I had learnt prior. I'd seen ...

B3 - Chapter 8 - Shadow and Flame
Sitting around the fire, Lily was busy designing the modified shadow glyph with precise flicks of her wand. Now that she'd experienced this level of glyphs, she almost didn't want to look back at simple ink and chalk anymore.
Although that will probably change when it comes to enchanting items. I don't think my wand can engrave or sew.

Hey, some unfortunate crap happened today, so I'm gonna have to delay the rest of this week's releases by 1 day.
So nothing tomorrow and Bunny Friday, Syl Saturday, Bunny Sunday. Sorry about that :(
Next week will be as per usual; however, please note that the 26th and 27th are my 2 days off this month.
Now, onto the good news!
Syl 4 is coming out on December 29th, including the audiobook!

Chapter 351: Sylbera
Leon had been minding his own business, carving a structure out of the large piece of solid rock he'd received. If he was honest with himself, he was somewhat jealous of this slime being able to magically conjure up resources, as where else would he be able to find such a uniformly solid piece of material?
He was happily carving away for what must have been hours until he suddenly noticed movement. The slime had awoken from its bathtub and b...

By the time they reached their area and set up, there wasn't much time left in the day. So, rather than going out for an exploration, they settled on securing the perimeter like Alice had shown previously.
The area was vibrant and practically untouched, with all sorts of natural treasures waiting to be found and harvested. Nothing too exciting happened at first, but when they extended their search radius, they found signs of a territor...

Chapter 350: Coarse and Rough
Now that I finally had some time to myself, I spent a few hours just doing nothing but occasionally destroying Pi for more pink slime core shards while relaxing in my makeshift tub. I could have spied on Vee through Beta, or Sylbera as she'd named it, but I chose to simply spend some time doing nothing for a change.
I did, however, occasionally glance over at our newest team member, who was using his claws to cut and shape the stone...

After covering a reasonable distance, the group finally started to slow down. The group was slightly out of breath, with Lotte suffering the most, but they were terrified of something even fiercer than the dire bear coming to investigate the explosions.
"That was… awesome," Lotte panted.
"Who would've thought we would take out a dire bear before the first day even officially started?" Thomas replied, a smile on his face.

Chapter 349 : Planning the Renovations
I quickly got to work using [Earth Magic] to summon enough ground to restore the land. Because I still had Llewel's alchemical gifts, I didn't have to worry too much about the quality, as we could enrich it later.
"Great! With you here, things will go super smoothly," Vee said with delight.
"Is this costly?" Leon asked.
"Not really, with just basic soil, it doesn't cost much to apparate it," I explained.

"Right, so can anyone tell me what the number one issue is for night watch?" Alice asked.
A few answers were given, mostly revolving around various nocturnal monster types. However, Alice never told them whether they were right or wrong, so the class just kept guessing.
Eventually, when everyone seemed to have given up, Alice finally revealed the answer. "Boredom!" she announced, accompanied by a smirk.

I spent some time getting to know Leon better, including his current situation and capabilities. Similar to Vee, he seemed much more open after the oath, which was good in my opinion, as I didn't want to deal with a potential ally who was always holding back information.
Although, unless Vee also takes an oath, technically, she could attack him. Except, because she's my [Bonded Companion], would that count as me attacking him...

True to her word, Alice intended to escort them through the forest, but before she did, she handed everyone a circular device that looked like a compass.

The students all promptly nodded in agreement. While the potential threats of the forest were definitely on their mind, ...

While Alice led the group, everyone else's heads were darting back and forth, trying to take in every sight and sound. This was far beyond their expectations; it really didn't feel like they were in the dungeon anymore, and instead, it felt like they were transported to another world entirely.

Leon sighed as he continued trying to fix the crater that was left behind. He was a builder, a constructor, a creator! And yet, now he was humbled to the menial task of a landscaper.
While he wanted to complain, the arachnid assassin that called itself Vee was a harsh mistress, and he'd receive punishment for disobedience. The worst part was that she called it "justice for trying to destroy such a beautiful island".

The hidden "Volcano Isle" suffered an even greater tragedy as more than half of its population simply vanished. Was this a targeted attack? ...

At first, I was a little concerned to see such powerful magic on display by the royal mermen pair. While I couldn't be frozen, I could still be trapped by ice, and being able to freeze anything underwater was an almost-perfect ability.
But when the mermen queen unleashed lightning, I could only laugh in response. What would have been a fatal weakness for me was nothing but a boon,...

Ignoring the hagfish incident, our hunting experience was actually quite enjoyable. Contrary to what I thought, Vanessa also fought alongside me from time to time, and we made quite the duo.
