Chapter 46

The Blind Book Club

It is amazing how little time it takes to get settled into a new routine. Especially when you are starting not just a new job, but a new career path. I had spent weeks holed up in my own little wing of the Mage’s Guild. It was mine, it felt like mine, it even began to have scents that I associated with me. It was odd in a way, I have had rooms before, little bolt holes in walls where no one would find me, and I could rest free of the elements. Yet,...

Chapter 114

London is Burning

Friday (Morning)

A gore and viscera covered Alexa appeared in the dungeon tunnel exit right outside of London, just as she had told her brother. Mucus, and gelatinous slime clung to parts of her created super uniform. With a simple coaxing of her will, Alexa summoned jets and streams of Water to wash down herself and her Aru’ka suit. Then once she felt mildly clean, she went about first using her Creation magi...

Preparing for Alexa's Class Vote

<<<<<Author's Note: Good morning everyone, I figured rather than starting off with the vote and class choices. I would first make sure everyone is happy with the wording/choices provided, with that, here is what it means to have an Apex level class, and what classes are available to Alexa>>>>

APEX Level Bonuses: 30 (Max) to Primary Attribute, 20 (2/3 Max) to secondary Attribute. Free Attribute Points: 20. 2023-02-23 11:24:18 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 45

The New Business Venture

When tragedy strikes that is when you find out how strong the members of a community truly are. Our town of Crossroads had been dealt back-to-back tragedies. First a group of exceptionally high level regressors came through and destroyed the town. Next, the guards who had been dealing with corruption amongst their ranks were also devastated when the toxic mine that they were guarding collapsed in on them. I managed to save the lives of everyone,...

A Gathering Of Shards

Friday (Morning)

Once Kelvin decided to finally join Alexa, she found that he was quite the good helper. Despite his status amongst the elves, it was clear that they had at least taught him the basics on how to maneuver through the woods, how to avoid detections. Better still, he had an innate understanding of where different groups would be sent to explore areas.

Originally, if she was doing this zone on her own, she would have gone t...

Doctorial Trials

(Three Weeks Later)

I have had three full weeks of a constant stream of patients coming in, all needing to be healed in different ways. Apparently not only are a number of people getting hurt by rebuilding, but due to the town being decimated, the number of adventurers, even the local towns people, have not been able to keep the local animal population in check. This of course has led to more and more animals spawning and growing higher in level. ...

Self-Taught

(One Week Later)

As it turns out, magic is simultaneously more complex and simpler than I thought. It is more complex in that it is not just enough to cast a spell, as a spell is the final evolution of countless hours of practice, time, understanding, and dedication. Also, it is simpler in that there are no true mathematical formulas, or mnemonics that will help learn or cast a spell faster. Unfortunately, all of the math, my true bread and butter, tha...

The Prisoner

Friday (Morning)

“…Would you want to see your father?” The question came out before Alexa could even fully grasp the level of effort she would need to commit to this boy, this relative wild card. Well boy wasn’t exactly the right word, he was a teenager, and if everything Alexa understood about the situation was to be believed, he was older than Alexa. Though his skinny frame and stature made such an understanding hard to believe. Then again,...

The Replacements

Bring.

Brrinnnggg.

Brrriinnnggg.

A chiming sound was going off, that was so loud that I couldn’t help but wake up.

“What, huh?” I blurt out as I reach out wildly trying to swat at the alarm clock, only to realize that I am not in my room, that there is no such thing as an alarm clock, and I somehow fell asleep in a chair. I was apparently a lot more tired than I expected, if I fell asleep in a cha...

Never Accepted

Friday (Morning)

“You’re still here?” Alexa said, staring at the teenager who looked and reminded her so much of Mr. Mackie, her school’s dean of discipline.

Rain drops falling.

For a moment only the cold sensation of the freezing rain falling on the pair could be heard. As rain drops continued to blanket the entire countryside.

When the boy finally did speak, he did so as a question, “you banished them?”

Chapter 110

Stage VIII

The minute Alexa entered the new dungeon, she couldn’t help but feel out placed by the sheer size and scope of the dungeon she was in. The dungeon was massive, as it seemed to have no end in sight. Just as it was nighttime from where she left, it was also nighttime here. However, the nighttime had an unsettling effect on the dungeon. At first it was hard to describe why there was an issue but soon there was a deep cold rain, one that seemed to permeate the...

A Cure And Uninvited Guests

About mid-way through my creation of my Plasma Volume Expander Elixir, I received an urgent message. An urgent message that almost caused me to lose focus. The reason why I almost lost focus, was the fact that the alert seemed to bypass all of my filters. Aside from initial skill gains, and quest updates, I shouldn’t get any messages. Generally I only get quest completion notices when I either do something, make a discovery, or oth...

Potion Making 101

As I enter the Apothecary Guild I am first met with a number of different cascading smells that all seem to be used to both hide the others, while simultaneously fighting for dominance. It is odd, there are hints of vanilla, and honey used to cover the distinct scents of rot and decay. Scents that can only be described as burnt hair and wet dog go hand in hand with lilacs and grapes.

“Hello, how may I help you?” The receptionist at the front ...

Chapter 109

Farewell Supper

Thursday

It hadn’t started as anything major, just a casual invite from Alexa to a few friends. In fact, for most the message would have been seen as an errant chat sent on blast, when it was really meant to be shared with but a small friend. The message had been simple and almost innocuous, if people didn’t know what to look for.

Alexa: Going Away barbeque tonight, please come.
