Chapter 48 Urban Warfare Take Three

Chapter 48

Urban Warfare Take Three

Rayquel and I are now in a fully modified attack craft. Modified in that it is only meant to fire beams of light, instead of true lasers that could slice a mechanoid unit into pieces, slowly. Also, this time Rayquel and I are expressly forbidden from using Mind Rend. Apparently, it makes for bad ratings if you can just walk into the start area and eliminate all ten enemy minds all at once.

Remember when I said, the weakest part of...

Chapter 47 Joint Training In Urban Warfare

Chapter 47

Joint Training In Urban Warfare

We were rapidly getting close to the time when Rayquel and I would need to go on our Temple Run. To help speed up the process, and to show inter-galactic compatibility, we were now training with Dwenvarians. Yep, space dwarfs. Why space dwarfs? Simple, this was an inter-galactic dick measurement competition.

The Dwenvarians wanted to prove that their space-mechs were superior to any ground force we could implement. For the most part...

OUTCAST: Chapter 142 Lykan: Dhampyr Hunter

Chapter 142

Lykan

Dhampyr Hunter

The night was alive and vibrant, a stark contrast to the world that now looked bleak. A village that had once been lush and thriving with vitality sat worse than Lykan’s original home of Abberty Village had been, after it was invaded by Azani forces lead by none other than Ajimal the Great.

Seeing the chaotic environment and way the world slowly crumbled around everything the qi monsters at the heart of the city touched, Lykan moved. ...

Chapter 45 Accessories, A Taboo Encounter, and Monogamy

<<<< AUTHOR'S NOTE: This was originally released as Chapter 46, but has now been swapped to make it Chapter 45. Sorry about the confusion.

>>>>

Chapter 45

Accessories, A Taboo Encounter, and Monogamy

Today is Saturday, or at least the Endarian equivalent of a Saturday. Rayquel and I needed to get a few things from the city, but we didn’t want to be hassled. So of course, now is when we came up with the idea ...

Chapter 46 The Boy With The Butterfly Tattoo

<<< AUTHOR'S NOTE: This was Chapter 45, but I will make it Chapter 46 for now. Sorry about the confusion>>>>>

Chapter 46

The Boy With The Butterfly Tattoo

The next few weeks kind of went in a blur for me. Even with my forgoing sleep, my day was taken up with training, training, more training, and finally acting as a human translator. During this time, I shared with Rayquel my cheat method of removing all harmful conditions caused by over training the...

Chapter 44 One, Three, and a Bit of Five

Chapter 44

One, Three, and a Bit of Five

Visions: First off, one might ask themselves how they know they are experiencing visions. Well good question. With practice one can begin to feel the tell-tale strain of energy being used to conjure such an event. Another great cue is that you cannot interact with the scenery. Sure, you can look around, change your point of view, your viewing angle, and so on. Still there is an undeniable quality that comes from vi...

OUTCAST: Chapter 141 Lykan: The Great Hunt

<<<Author's Note. This was the story meant for Monday the 15th of August, but due to my mistake you get it early. Thank you all for Reading and hope you have a great weekend>>>>>

Chapter 141

Lykan

The Great Hunt

The village was odd to say the least. People seemed both supernaturally powered by the overflowing waves of qi, while at the same time they seemed almost powerless. It seemed as if the ...

Honest Question About Outcast?

Does anyone here only read Outcast?

If not, I intend to drop it in order to continue pursuing the 13th Loop to its entirety.

I just wanted to know if I was killing myself to produce chapters for this story for myself at this point?

So please leave a comment if you still follow, and want to know more about what happens in Outcast? Or if you'd rather I devote myself fully to the 13th Loop.

Chapter 43 I Only See the Worst in People

Chapter 43

I Only See the Worst in People

WOOSH! A beam of light comes from my eyes, as I feel my mind and body burn away an outer protective shell over the monster that was clearly visible to my eyes. Once the monster’s shell and the dazzling light show from my eyes are over, a monster in black and burnt flesh appears before everyone. At least I think it appears before everyone, as suddenly every is silent as I hear a collective gasp from everyone breathing in, all in ...

Chapter 42

Citizenship And Monsters

“Today we would like to give a special award to our newest Endarian Citizen. Someone who has not only proven himself as a military asset, but one who came highly recommended by the world tree as well.” This comment from General Tigran got everyone to laugh. Especially since Rayquel’s video of me being sprayed and then nutted upon by said world tree had gone viral. In all five seeds were seen to be able to germinate, four of which are alrea...

OUTCAS Chapter 140 Brenna: The Last Villager

Chapter 140

Brenna

The Last Villager

Even just seeing the boy’s skinny frame caused waves of pain to shoot down Brenna’s body. Her mind didn’t even have to latch onto his to explain the situation. The boy was half starved and scared to death of the world around him. Something had spooked the boy so badly that he had defecated himself and would rather rot away in the abandoned stump of a tree than forage for food.

Then Lykan gave his warning, two quick taps of his...

Chapter 41 Spoils of War

Chapter 41

Spoils of War

“My office, now. You too Rayquel.” General Fellina, I mean Tigran said as she gestured for both Rayquel and I to follow her. By the sound of her voice, I knew something was serious, but I couldn’t quite understand what. At least not until we got to her office, and I saw bags full of glowing cert coins. Worse, just looking at the certs made something inside my stomach sing with delight.

“Do you know what these things are?” General Tigran sai...

Interlude V Captain Chet Goldman

<<<<<Author's Note: I think this will be the last Interlude (no true promises) but this should give me all the ammunition I need to complete book two. Let me know if you think this chapter is too much, or comes too soon. But I hope for the rest of the book to be a straight octane-fuel ride to the conclusion. 

As always, thank you all for joining me on this journey and I hope you are still enjoying this story as much as I am while writing i...

OUTCAST: Chapter 139 Lykan: The Village

Chapter 139

Lykan

The Village

To say that the people of the small village were odd, would be an understatement. Each person seemed to both be unique and remarkably the same. Lykan for his part couldn’t put his finger on exactly why this was. He kept glancing at Brenna to see if she had any further insights into why the people came across as strange but to his surprise, she didn’t seem to notice the people.

Realizing there was something either wrong with him and his...

Chapter 40

Awkward Tensions and New Nick Names

You know when people say they want to give you a nick name, why can’t it ever be Nick? It always must be something stupid like Powder or Heal Boy. Even the nearly trademarked Professor ‘-X’ would be preferable to my new nick name. No, I am not going to tell you what it is, I will just go by hey you. Weirdo. Or any other less mildly offensive term than what I’ve been given.

“Grippy.” Wizard me asks; his voice...

Chapter 39 Visions, Angels, and Death

Chapter 39

Visions, Angels, and Death

Dreams are like the ultimate comfort food for the soul. Dreams have a way of making it, so everything finally makes sense. You see the past present and future all in multiple ways. You see them, all but they somehow all exist at the same time and not at all.

I saw the white light of my life. This being the thirteenth time I realized it for what it was, my mind packaging my core memories of this life into one package that would be downloa...

OUTCAST: Chapter 138 Brenna: A Clear Conscience

Chapter 138

Brenna

A Clear Conscience

The couple had made their journey southeast, preferring to follow the more subtle routes of human traffic. There are obvious roads made by armies that are designed for the expedient transfer of goods and resources. Then there are the other hidden routes that are made by individuals who brave the wilderness to trade simpler goods and resources with smaller towns. It was one of these out of the way paths that Lykan and Brenna chose to foll...

Chapter 38

Talking Correctly While Acting Stupidly

“We have broken containment. Sector Sigma One Alpha Nine. Thanks to a lancer movement made possible by my Psionic spear, we have breached a line in the enemy formation. Turning back around now to give supporting fire and administer cluster charges with extreme prejudice!” Rayquel states clearly in a tone that stirs something deep inside me.

“Love it when you talk all dirty.” I say, as I do what she suggests. I begin ...

Chapter 37

Shoddy Work and Rapid Deployments

You ever have a group project? One where there are three of you. You have to do one thing, one fucking minor thing, the same exact way three times. Well really just once, but for this instance three times. You do it twice. Two of you even team up to make sure the task is done correctly. Then you try to team up with the third person, but they just don’t want to work with you. So, you trust the third person that they did the assignment,...

Chapter 36

Portals and Temples

“You are here to learn about Portals, their creation, their execution, and how we can learn to create one.” Professor Astria said, floating in a cloud.

Me being the translator, I of course parroted everything she said in Endarian back into English.

She still had that mysterious aura to her, but she was a lot more normal? No, normal wasn’t quite the word I was looking for. Toned down, maybe? I don’t know, all I do...

Interlude IV

Interlude IV

“Now that we are alone. Why don’t you tell me what you have been up to?” Dr. Charleston asked, though his words were more of a command more than anything.

Melissa, now enlisted as a War Mage Cadet, sat in the comfortable chair, and closed her eyes as she began to speak. “Things are going as planned. Integration has gone as expected. I am pretending to slowly gain awareness of my abilities with magical theories, as has been documented.”

A slightly annoy...

Chapter 137 Lykan: Next Stage

Chapter 137

Lykan

Next Stage

Lykan for his part had finally found the breakthrough he had been looking for. In one night, he had managed to do one thing that had defied him for years. In one night, he had changed the course of his life forever. He had been at a bottleneck for so long in the path of his cultivation, locked in a permanent stalemate of life. Originally, he had taken on Brenna to be his successor. He realized that his path was nearly complete, that after seven y...

Chapter 35

Pairings

“Today we will begin pairing you off with an ideal candidate. This will be your permanent partner while here at Thessia Academy of Excellence.” General Fellina began, though apparently, she was not known as General Fellina in this Universe. Here she was just called Pouncing Tiger, or Tigran for short. For me though I still had her as Fellina due to the Russians butchering her name in their first translation and the subsequent re-translation into my native l...

Chapter 34

Being Jealous of Myself

“You know, that the you from here is strictly human?” Rayquel poses when we meet up after my quick shower and change after our morning exercise routine. “In fact, I probably shouldn’t be sharing this with you, but since the Cadet Goldman from this world will be your student, at least for two of the classes it is only fitting that we share his Status with you.”

Ping.

With that little introduction I receive t...

Chapter 136

Brenna

Things Unsaid [Explicit]

Hearing the rustling and the splashing of water behind her, Brenna turned around to see an indentation in the water. Then after focusing for a moment, she let her qi sight spiral out the way Lykan had taught her and in a second, she could see him. She could see the man who she had just seen get swallowed by an unfathomably huge monster. Seeing that he was alive, that he had somehow survived the ordeal caused a damn of emot...

Chapter 33 No One Cock-Blocks Me, Like I Cock-Block Me From Myself

Chapter 33

No One Cock-Blocks Me, Like I Cock-Block Me From Myself

The Endarian Military Academy was much as I expected, in that I had no clue what to expect when I arrived. Then after touring the campuses, I still had no clue how everything would work out. My arrival came with several students and cadre, a few of the cadre I instantly understood were there to watch me. I was guessing that they, and by they I mean the human leadership, messed up by keeping me confined to ...

Chapter 32 Changing Teams?

Chapter 32

Changing Teams?

The whole coming together as a three species army united against the scourge never happened. What had all been a huge publicity stunt in the first place ended much as it had begun, at least in my case, in a hazy stupor. The Dwenvarians seeing what the Endarians did to protect their home planet, that is obliterate every inch of city and asphalt to the ground, staring with blasts happening at an outward perimeter and working their way slowly inward to the ...

OUTCAST: Chapter 135 Brenna: Aerial Dominance

Chapter 135

Brenna

Aerial Dominance

Brenna watched as Lykan flew out over the ocean. She could see his determination and resolve slowly wash over his movements and actions. This was a gradual change that Brenna only noticed through months of constantly observing the young man. One of such grace and poise that it was hard to notice when he was ruffled, when he was getting in his own head space. The fact that he even came to her showed two things, first and probably the most i...

Going Into August 2022

Good morning everyone. First I wanted to say thank you all for continuing with me through another month. 

For those of you who are new, welcome. Know that most of the tiers are related to the chapters that are linked to my original series Outcast: that I intend to continue, but in a much limited capacity (generally about three new chapters a week).

This brings me to my new series, the 13th Loop, that I hope to leave open to patrons at all levels, at least for the time being.&...

Chapter 31 Don’t Mind Me

Chapter 31

Don’t Mind Me

Everything was going smoothly. Even our getaway plan of me being princess carried by the Iron Butterfly was going well. Her wings were impressive I had to give her that. They seemed to deny gravity and physics as they bent and pushed us ever upwards. Every so often we would take a quick rest in the thick branches of the world tree. This might be considered sacrilege under most circumstances, but with the city and likely whole world of Endar burning aroun...
