Arthropod?
Vee was confused by the rewarded trait, but after reading the description, she realized that it included insects, arachnids, and crustaceans.
Vee quickly put two and two together and assumed that the god behind Leon must have wanted a method for them to communicate without Syl present. Although Vee couldn't help but feel somewhat bitter about the reward.
Why couldn't it have just been t...
2025-11-17 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostUnbeknownst to Leon, while Vee had jumped off the web, she had remained connected to it through her spinneret. While she didn't need to do this to accomplish the impressive reversal she had just performed, her actual goal was to take a page from Syl.
By remaining connected with the web, especially through a spinneret, she could exert far greater control over it—something she had been taught during her time with the spider queen....
2025-11-14 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostLily and her friends took a trip to Kaeling, where everyone's coin pouches became notably lighter. Problems like weight and transportation became a thing of the past unless the item was truly too large.
Every single one of them had actually underestimated the storage bags, but thankfully, Rose was joining them on this trip, and she easily resolved this misunderstanding. They knew it was "bigger on the inside," but they had t...
2025-11-13 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostHell's bells, how can this day get any worse?
What had started as an ordinary day had swiftly turned into a nightmare. As if the constant attacks from the mermen hadn't been enough to drive him from the ocean depths, now not even his secret lair was safe.
Leon had simply been crafting and experimenting with the new class he'd received from a somewhat recent "tutorial quest" in the safety of his home when suddenly somethin...
2025-11-12 06:15:02 +0000 UTC View PostLily wasted no time showing off what she could do to her two guests, providing a demonstration of the wand and her knowledge of glyphs. Unfortunately for Lily, the latter was wasted on the two, as they had no interest in learning about the subject at all.
Feeling a little sad that they didn't share her enthusiasm, they instead talked about the mock dungeon gauntlet and their results. Talking about the dungeon immediately piqued Rose'...
2025-11-11 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostWhen Vee teleported near the volcano, a foreboding sensation permeated the air, causing her to halt the movement combo chain. She immediately glanced around, even going as far as to use [Spatial Sense] to double check, but she couldn't find any hidden threat.
That's weird…
Thinking maybe she had imagined it, Vee tried to teleport again, only to find she moved half the distance she intended. She was using [Blink] for m...
2025-11-10 06:15:02 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone, so we're just over a week until the official book 1 launch of Bookbound Bunny on Amazon on the 17th!
That means for Kindle Unlimited I'll need to STUB book 1 on Sunday next week (16th).
But, as per usual, here is the official epub for book 1 for Patreons, s...
2025-11-08 19:46:01 +0000 UTC View PostAfter removing the absolute lightshow in her room, Lily could finally get some sleep. Despite going to bed late, she woke up far earlier than expected, likely due to her anticipation.
"One of the days I'm allowed to sleep in and I wake up at the crack of dawn…" Lily grumbled.
[Morning, you're up early. Why don't you go back to bed?]
Lily sleepily shook her head. "No, that never works and just ma...
2025-11-08 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostI wanted to both explore and potentially set up some traps; however, there was one big issue—Sylvain. I thought of leaving a primed body double behind, but as soon as anyone interacted with it, I'd be exposed.
Once again, I desperately wished my [Sub-Cores] could overcome the slime connection limitation, but that didn't mean I was entirely without options.
It's a good thing my seafood diet has given me
Lily continued drawing her glyph, and since it was just a simple light orb, she finished it rather quickly. From the right angle, it looked great, but as soon as you deviated even a little, it looked like a mess! Before even trying to activate it, she already wanted to die of embarrassment.
[Not bad.]
"Not bad!? I drew better glyphs over a year ago!" Lily cried out.
Despite Lily's turmoil, Arakil chuckl...
2025-11-06 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostIt felt good to be the one piloting my slime body around again; even though the full power of [Roleplay] was impressive, it rapidly grew uncomfortable the longer I left it.
I wouldn't have been able to keep it up with just [Acting], I would have exploded before even reaching this place with how touchy Vanessa is…
A slight shudder went through me, as just imagining it gave me the creeps. Even as a third-party observer, it had a...
2025-11-05 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostIf not for Arakil projecting his voice straight into her mind, Lily would have thought she misheard him, and considering her exceptional hearing as a Lagia, that was certainly saying something.
"I can draw glyphs in the air?" Lily repeated in question.
[Of course. Did you think you were limited to ink and chalk? You already knew about enchanting through weaving and forging, so why not the very air itself?]
Arak...
2025-11-04 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostAs Vanessa led Sylvain around for a tour of the city, I spent my time examining the threats. I spent most of my time using [Identify] whenever possible and trying to gauge the strength of this mysterious monster race.
Through hours of collecting information, I had a rough but decent idea of their power. Initially, I had assumed the mermen started at tier two, since Sybil was tier four and had two mutations. However, judging by the more youth...
2025-11-03 06:15:02 +0000 UTC View Post"It looks like Lily is summoning her Familiar," Headmaster Fabrelis said, watching the display.
At this point, most of the teachers had departed, especially those who were not yet actively teaching the first-year students. The reason they were here in the first place, other than the snacks, was to see what growing potential they'd see in the future years.
"Why, what possible use could it have?" Instructor Gerrard asked.
"Mayb...
2025-11-01 06:15:02 +0000 UTC View PostAs we sat around the crystalline table, Vanessa placed her hand in the center of it, touching an oval-shaped protrusion and causing it to shimmer. Outside, I heard and sensed the whale closing its mouth and beginning to stir.
I guess this is how they control it?
From what I could tell, this structure was not only sealed but also produced fresh air to breathe, allowing non-aquatics to brave the ocean depths.
The whale co...
2025-10-31 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostWhen Lily reunited with her friends, she smiled happily, triggering an infectious wave of grins among the group. They still weren't allowed to talk about it, but judging by everyone's reactions, they were all quite happy with their performances.
"That seemed fast," Hana suddenly said.
"I'm honestly not sure. I completely lost track of time while in there," Lily admitted.
That caused one of the watchers to shoot them a d...
2025-10-30 06:15:02 +0000 UTC View PostOnce Vanessa had received all the deepstone, she gave it to Sylvain for safekeeping. She rewarded him with a kiss on the cheek, which lit up his entire face with joy.
Gross, what are you making me do [Roleplay]? Are you actually enjoying this?
Even though I was now observing things as an outside observer, I was not happy seeing one of my created personas tarnished like this. If at the end of the day this wasn't worth the trou...
2025-10-29 06:15:18 +0000 UTC View PostThe observers felt bad about the other students currently taking their mock test, but seeing the strange sight of a Lagia mage stole everyone's attention. Those who hadn't truly known about her were dying of curiosity, while those who did were excited to see her magic in action.
Even the Headmaster hadn't received a proper demonstration of this "star magic" yet, and only Elius and Alice had truly seen what she could do. When Lily ente...
2025-10-28 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostFor the next few days, similar events occurred. Every time I wanted to see the magma forge, something would come up, and I'd be forced into resolving some emergency for the island.
I obviously had my suspicions that something was up, but Vanessa seemed so distraught that I was finding it hard to believe it was foul play. Considering that I didn't actually need the refined deepstone, I didn't press on it, and with each of these requests, I ...
2025-10-27 06:15:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe tests had been going on for a while now, and as far as Lily could tell, nobody had failed yet. It was hard to tell how everyone was doing unless you were trying to keep track of the time in your head, and none of the staff who remained to keep things orderly had announced any results yet.
Everyone in her circle had already gone, so Lily was feeling slightly anxious about being the last to go up. There were other students, b...
2025-10-25 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe next morning, since I had found a more stable location, I offered for Vee to stay behind, but sadly, she turned me down.
"I want to do some searching around here, maybe I'll get lucky," she replied. "Plus, I wouldn't want to be a third wheel with you and Vanessa."
I wasn't sure why Vee was bringing her into the equation, as Vanessa was a non-combatant, meaning I didn't really see much point in hanging around her. Yes, comba...
2025-10-24 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View Post"So, have any promising seeds been identified yet, or is it still too early?" Headmaster Fabrelis asked, directed toward Alice and Elius.
"It's got to be Hana," Instructor Gerrard commented, joining the conversation.
Gerrard was in charge of Sorcerous Warfare and was a retired veteran of the royal mageknights. If Lily were to meet him, she would describe the grizzled veteran as an even stricter version of Richardus, likely due...
2025-10-23 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostDue to the sheer size of our boat, it had to be anchored in deeper waters, and we, along with our cargo, were ferried to Volcano Isle's rudimentary dock. The first thing I did before leaving was rescinding my attack order for my [Sub-Cores], as I didn't want to accidentally depopulate everything surrounding this island.
My initial impressions were that this must be a relatively new outpost, as it appeared quite barebones compared to Gra...
2025-10-22 06:15:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe day of the mock dungeon trial had finally arrived and the excitement from the first years was infectious, causing a stir throughout all of the cafeterias in the morning.
The older students couldn't help but be caught up in the excitement, as they too were once in this position. Some even tried to offer last-minute tips or advice, although whether it actually would have an influence was unlikely at this point.
Lily h...
2025-10-21 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostAfter I obtained the skill, I had information flooding into my mind on how to activate it and what it could do. I was already intimately familiar with everything [Wind Step] could do, and I felt like I was on the verge of creating [Wave Step], but the other two came as quite a surprise—especially [Terra Step].
I had initially written off the earth movement ability as probably not being anything too outstanding. Still, I was i...
2025-10-20 06:15:20 +0000 UTC View PostWhen Lily neared her room, she bumped into Lotte, who had been looking for her after growing concerned about her missing dinner. Lily quickly filled her in on what had happened while dropping off her stuff in her room before departing again.
Lotte had already eaten, but was more than willing to join Lily while she heard the full juicy details of the story. By the time Lily was more than halfway through her meal, she finally fin...
2025-10-18 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostSince this was a long trip, unless something happened, I was going to be extremely bored. I wanted to work on converting more skills into spells, but while out on the deck, I was limited to water and air.
So, while I really wanted to work on recreating [Warp] since I had already succeeded with [Blink], I was forced to instead turn my attention to [Wind Step]. I had previously deconstructed it, but it had fallen victim to my usua...
2025-10-17 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostAfter Sylwel finished his taste test, he pulled out a monocle and used it to examine the contents of the bottle. Judging by the tint on the lens, Lily assumed it was probably the same as the spectacles Camilla had used to catch her red-handed.
"I'm surprised this works with so little Mana," the professor admitted, adjusting the monocle a few times.
"That's why it needs to be efficient," Lily explained.
"And that...
2025-10-16 06:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostVee and I played around with the extraordinary new metal for a while. I was curious if this would have any combat applications, but the best I could come up with was making floating bombs to shove at my enemies.
Admittedly, it wasn't one of my most brilliant ideas, and I definitely still had [Nitro Slime] on the brain, but I still thought it was a decent idea. As uniquely special as my various slimes were, they still had weight to t...
2025-10-15 06:15:04 +0000 UTC View PostAfter getting Professor Ollie's permission, Lily went back to her room to fetch her supplies while he went ahead to inform Professor Sylwel of their little brewing demonstration.
Lily was actually quite excited, as this would be her first proper brewing session since she arrived at Regarth, as it had been nothing but a few herbal remedies to show Lotte the ropes. After all, a bedroom was not a place to perform such activities, a...
