LDQ Vol. 6 pt. 22

I wasn’t sure how I ended up in a situation where my face was planted against Delphi’s ass, but it was.

It was really soft.

Though, her thighs still made a better pillow. Same with her chest. Or any part of her, really. I didn’t understand it until my face was planted against it, but butts made horrible pillows when they were as big as hers. They required too much neck bending to be comfortable. Trying to sleep on an ass would probably result in neck cramping lately whereas ...

The raid group was formed and we were already inside of the raid that featured my target at the end of it. First, though, we needed to fight our way through the volcano that served as the raid’s location. My target was at the volcano’s caldera sitting on a platform in the middle waiting for us, but there were plenty of volcanic tunnels for us to make our way through first before we could reach her.

And for the first time since leaving my old guild, I formed a raid group that made me...

Was I nervous? Of course. There was a ton riding on the conversation I was about to have with the Viking Elves’ leader. But no matter how nervous I was, I needed to keep it together. There were too many people depending on me. Too much at stake.

Even if my goal was something as ridiculous sounding as “troll the enemy leader into surrendering,” the potential outcomes and what they meant for us were anything but ridiculous.

That was ...

Weekly Update #200

tl;dr: nothing is really changing with current stories, this is mostly rambling about future stories and my own ideals as an author

Now then, time for some reflection!

So, I've talked about this pretty at-length already on the Discord server, though it came in the form of such walls of text between only really me and one other person that I doubt anybody else bothered to actually pay attention to the conversations covering this. But before I get into that, let's g...

TTE Vol. 11 pt. 6

The battle of Fenrir and Cassiel versus the giant apes raged on along the beach. Though, it wasn’t exactly right to call it a battle. It was more like Fenrir and Cassiel were desperately fighting for their lives, trying everything they could just to survive, against overwhelming strength and numbers. Even just going up against one ape each pushed the two players to their absolute limits, and there were far more apes in reserve ready to step in at any moment.

Not only that, but both Fe...

“What—what happened to Master?!” Delphi shouted as she ran up to me. It was… kinda easy to understand why she was freaking out considering that I was carrying Drake on my back and all that. Carrying a passed-out Drake wasn’t something that I think any of them saw me do before.

“He’s fine,” I said and poked his cheek, causing him to grumble and shake his head a little. “See? He’s still alive… somehow.”

“Umm… Master, what do you mean by somehow?”

Part of me still felt bad about the situation involving Wally, but there was nothing else I could do to help him out at the moment. Trying to cheer him up or asking to do anything with him would only make me look like I was pitying him, and could I really say that wasn’t the case? The only reason I was even thinking of that was because he let me know that he felt bad and wished he had friends who wanted to invite him to things and initiate conversation with him outside of wanting to get som...

Strangely enough, when I woke up the next day, one of my first thoughts was not about whether or not the Viking Elves were going to accept my offer. Instead, it was about whether or not Kaila was going to be upset for not getting to battle. She genuinely wanted to go and fight—play, rather. That was all it was to her. Playing. She wanted to get out there and tear them to shreds seeing as how such a thing was a fun time to Volcano Hounds.<...

Alrighty. So, I learned something. When you setup a preorder for something on Amazon, you're only allowed to push the date back by 30 days at most and you're only allowed to do it once. If you change the release date a second time, you get banned from setting up a preorder on Amazon for anything else for 1 year. Honestly, that's a good system. I like it. It's good for the consumer. Slightly worrisome for me, but it's fine. Anyways, the manuscript is good to go, but I still decided to push it ...

Cassiel said that she liked to hear Fenrir ramble, and so, once she returned and they were ready to roast some fish over the fire, Fenrir rambled. Eva was also more than happy to listen in as Fenrir went on about the different fish that him and the other fishers of Nameless found in the local waters, and he made sure to go all into detail about their different flavors, the texture differences, how some of the crafters have been using their scales, eyes, and even organs in various crafting rec...

((Whew, this chapter has ended up being twice the normal length of a chapter. That was a lot longer than I thought it would be, but uh, here it is! And it is most certainly a chapter.))


Me and Vala walked into the forest together—or rather, I did all the walking. All she did was sit on my shoulders and press her thighs against the sides of my head, which was exactly what I wanted her to do.

It was nostalgic. Even though it wasn’t that long ago that we last ...

There were some valuable tips among Fred’s advice for me on how to fuck the dragon into submission, but—honestly, I already had most of his ideas in mind. There were, however, a few that I wasn’t thinking of which I would be sure to incorporate into my plan, so I was still able to come up with a better plan thanks to him.

But there were a few things I needed to do before I could actually fuck the dragon.

The first of those things included meeting up with Wally at the town ce...

“You won! We won!” Enna cheered, sounding the most energetic that I ever heard her up until then as she practically bounced against my side.

I wished that I could have enjoyed that a bit more, but it was hard knowing that we were only celebrating due to senseless violence that just so happened to benefit us.

Now, I was the kind of man who believed it was the people’s right to own fully automatic machine guns, functioning ta...

Whew, just two more weeks until the big 200!

Anyways, this is mega late, but at least DE is already done so I can post it right after this and email spam everybody. I was just editing LDQ for most of the day since I'll admit I fell a bit behind on that. Still on schedule, though. The only reason there might be a delay with publishing the third volume is waiting on the cover art, but Eros is going to try and make it so that I don't have to push the date back at all. Don't want to rush hi...

Ultimately, the group decided to head to where Fenrir first regained consciousness at since his spot on the beach sounded like it was the safest out of where everybody came to at. There were no mind-controlling tentacle plants, it was far from the center of the island where they feared even stronger beasts were waiting for them, and it was pretty flat and open which provided them with a good range of vision on their surroundings.

It also meant Fenrir could fish for some food while Cassi...

Despite just how obvious it was what Vala was going to do, Valkyria seemed to have no idea and kept on trying to ask the rest of us about her plans. But we figured that if not telling her would result in her getting a nice surprise visit, then why answer her?

Plus it was fun to tease her about how we knew something that she didn’t.

But that aside, there was something else that I really didn’t expect to happen as a result of the day’s events, and that was… the bond that see...

Fred might have had some valuable information for me, but I had a better idea than to just try and randomly extract as much knowledge as possible from him.

I invited him to join our picnic.

He was delighted in the adorable way that only excited, old people ever got. Old people always just got so excited over random little things like that. It was like giving them even a bit of attention made their day. Even a man who was as blatantly perverted as Fred could look like an excited, i...

Five Volcanic Predators units. Just under a hundred Volcano Hounds in total. Their lives were officially in danger, and it would take a combination of strategy and luck to keep as many of them as possible alive.

Since we weren’t just rushing a brand-new settlement without any defenders, I was considerably more careful about placing them at the start.

The enemy’s camp was at top left corner of the map. The Volcanic Predators could only be placed in a rectangular section near th...

I forgot that it's not a good idea to randomly lie down with my dogs in bed when IU have things to do. Accidentally took a nap. Oops. Anyways, just hurrying up to do this update and stuff now and then get to writing DE. Well, I've got a lot of muse for something else I've been working on, so I'm probably going to work on that for a couple more hours and then finish up the DE chapter to follow me trying not to let any huge bursts of inspiration go to waste.

“Rock, I love you, but… you need to lose some weight,” Fenrir said, groaning as he carried Rock on his back with his hands held behind him to keep her weight supported.

Rock’s response to his statement was licking the side of his face.

“No matter how cute you might be, my body is eventually going to break, and I don’t think you can heal it by licking me.”

Rock licked his face again despite his refusal to believe in the power of her licking.

The Valkyria of the past managed to break through the enemies that pursued them into the forest so that she could return her commander to the rest of the crew. When she reached them, the remaining crew raised their weapons and were ready to open fire on the strange woman… until they saw who she was carrying.

“Eliza!” one of the girls cried out, rushing up to Valkyria to take the commander from her.

One of the other girls, the driver nicknamed Marmar by the others, almost imm...

And so, we quested.

There wasn’t much to gain from it, for me, aside from personal satisfaction and getting to spend time with the others. After all, I was already at the level cap. Even doing the quests on other classes to level them up wasn’t exactly effective since doing quests was a pathetically slow method of leveling. Running a single dungeon would take the same amount of time it took to complete one of the game’s overly long quests and reward about ten times the total amoun...

The dawn of the 22nd day brought with it the completion of our unit build queues. While I was never one to focus on what was basically a zerg rush in the early game, I had to admit that they were effective, and focusing on that was probably the only thing that could keep us alive against the Viking Elves.

All that was left was to move everybody into position. So, that was what I did. Just as planned, I split up a few of the stacks of V...

If there was one positive side to getting stranded on a mysterious island with his girlfriends, it was that Fenrir might actually get to see Cassiel and Eva in coconut bikinis after all.

Unfortunately, though, there were no coconuts in sight.

Not that it mattered too much. Fenrir was more concerned with finding Rock. He just so happened to also keep an eye out for any coconuts out of pure curiosity.

“Rock!” Fenrir shouted, unsure of whether or not he should continue walk...
