Chapter 303: Void Travel
Silvi willed the giant tear in the void closed behind her. She had no idea the skill was going to be so big. She could only hope that in the brief time it was open, it hadn’t caused any harm to her precious kitchen. Then again, if her kitchen was damaged, it would make for the perfect excuse to get the upgrades she had been wanting. Especially if the reason for the damage was because she was saving the little sparky fellow.
Lately, she felt like she need...

Chapter 302: Pressure
Another round of rage poured through Edward, and he threw caution to the wind and charged at full speed to attack Titus. Once he was within striking range, Edward prepared the same attack as he used before, head on. With a yell, he thrust his lighting covered sword forward with all his might… but it hit something and bounced off.
Still carrying the same momentum, his body crashed into what he realized was another barrier, but one he couldn’t even see. Com...

Chapter 301: Clayton
Edward looked around to see nothing out of the ordinary, just the person there to receive them. At this time, the teleporters were only available for a select few, and were shut down for everyone else as security measures.
Without a word, the crown prince took a step down from the teleportation circle. But, just as his foot hit the floor, he felt an odd magic permeate through the air. With a feeling of dread, he rushed out of the building. At a first glance, h...

Chapter 300: And the System Laughs
Derek was reminded of an old adage he used to hear all the time back on Earth both before the system arrived and after, ‘Man plans, and God laughs.’ Sitting at the camp, nothing quite described their current situation better than that. Before, both he and Edgar had wholeheartedly agreed to put all the politics aside and do whatever they could to finish the raid as fast as possible.
Once that was decided, Edgar went around, telling everyone hi...

Chapter 299: Broken Contracts
“Okay,” Derek said after taking in what Walter had told him. “So, what do you all think is going on? Is it only happening in Torith?” Derek and the bunch still called the sub-city Torith even though its name had most likely been changed already, seeing how that surname was now a stain on the Cydarian Kingdom’s reputation.
“One moment, we’ll talk about this later,” Edgar said. “Let’s see what the next trial is going to be. I’d lik...

Chapter 298: The Bigger They Are
Derek sat next to the dungeon orb, topping up on his health, mana, and stamina before leaving. He was also doing some thinking. What he was hoping for most was that he would actually be rewarded for completing the trial. With his latest interaction with the other system, he thought there might be a chance that he would no longer be rewarded for doing things inside his current system. Well, things other than levels up to 250.
With the trial complete...

Chapter 296: Unfortunate Return
Lieutenant Hobbs sat back at his desk with a sigh. The Planetary Battle on Planet A-37 was moving along nicely, especially considering its size. If things continued to go the way they were, Commander Kelvin would surely reward him with a promotion. Perhaps he would even get promoted to one of those comfy command positions back at base. A man could dream.
But soon, all his hopes and dreams were dashed by a blaring alarm going off on his bracelet. He ...

Chapter 295: Don’t Whale on Me!
The Caustic Whale of Pestilence released roar after roar as Derek continued to whale on it. Strike after strike from Harbinger soon had its lungs and, what could only be described as air sacs, flayed open and bleeding at least from what Derek could tell with the extremely small amount of light offered to him by the dark glow of the veils created from Void Creation.
Plus, it was easy t...

Chapter 294: A Whale of a Battle
Unfortunately for Derek, after the initial roar of pain from the whale, nothing more happened. The only explanation was that his void infused attack missed any vital areas of the whale before dissipating harmlessly.
Fuck! Derek yelled inwardly. His one good plan of action had failed, just like that. Another thing he noticed was that his Cleaning skill hadn’t worked the way he had hoped. It cleaned him of the basic blubber and blood from ...

The blinding light disappeared, and Derek found himself in the trial. When he looked around, he could barely believe what he was seeing. He instantly felt bad for Asana Greenland. Hell, he was already starting to feel bad for himself. Maybe I should have let Avery do this one, he thought, and the archer may have been more suited for the trial if he was taking into account the current environment.
Derek was on an island-if he could even call it that...

So, like that, Derek once again fell into a routine of sparring with Avery, watching Tyron work, chatting with Edgar, and focusing on his meditation skill.
In those days, Derek learned a bit more about the smith. Tyron didn’t seem to be as talented in making armor as he was in making weapons. That didn’t mean that he wasn’t talented, though. No, that was far from the truth. The giant of a man just happened to be extra talented when it came to the ...

With a vicious strike through the air, Harbinger cut into a tree, just missing the ducking Avery by inches. With the glaive stuck, Avery dashed in and released a flurry of slashes to Derek’s abdomen, causing wound after wound to appear before regenerating at a speed visible to the naked eyes.
Avery clicked his tongue, then jumped high in the air, pulling out and no...

“An epic duel?” Derek asked. “Isn’t that good? Sounds like a pretty quick trial to me.”
Edgar looked at Derek, then at all the others behind him, waiting. Derek then understood who would be chosen to go into the duel. To guarantee success, he, Edgar, or Avery would be the best for it, but, even though there was some trepidation out of the party after losing a party member, they were all professionals, and it wasn’t like Layne was the fir...

Chapter 289: Casualty
Derek patiently waited for Tyron to recover, the whole time wondering if Brandi’s style of crafting was going to be as arduous mentally for her as it seemed to be for Tyron. Then again, Derek didn’t pretend to have not heard Tyron call him a monster. He guessed that the person the smith was crafting for usually ran out of mana to infuse into their weapon well before Tyron tired out mentally.
Unfortunately for Tyron, and fortunately for Derek and his almos...

Chapter 288: Circulation
Derek arrived at Tyron’s workspace to find the smith still hard at work, dismantling all the beasts he had received. He noticed that there were multiple storage rings laying on his workbench, and after the smith stored another set of materials in one he was holding, he tossed that ring over to the bench along with all the others.
By Derek’s count, Tyron should be getting close to completing his task. Just a couple more storage rings full of materials, ...

Just as intrigued, if not more, by what he learned about Silvi, than his own evolution, Derek first looked over his companion’s status. Oh, when did Silvi turn seven? We’ll have to keep an eye on that once I get out of here so we can celebrate properly. I’m sure she would like some cake.
After that, he moved on to see that her new class and race were properly shown. He still worried a bit about her race having the ‘gluttonous’ modifie...

Chapter 286: Silvi’s Evolution
The void matter began to fall away from Silvi. This evolution seemed different. She couldn’t remember much about her first evolution, as she wasn’t yet the amazing bunny everyone knew her as when she previously evolved. Still, this evolution seemed even more unusual, but she couldn’t quite put her paw on what was different.
Once all the void matter broke away and disappeared, she lightly floated to the ground. It was a shame that she couldn...

While wrapped up in the darkness, evolving, Derek occasionally received messages from the strange new system. The latest notification was about Silvi’s evolution. It hadn’t seemed long after the previous message about his bonded link that the evolution had already completed. Of course, that could have either been because of the time difference between the dungeon and the outside world, or just his skewed sense of time while evolving inside the darkness.

Finally, after preparing for it as best he could, Derek pulled up his status and focused on his class upgrade. Like always, he began to skim through the options available, on the off chance there was something that interested him more than his current class. However, this time, the class upgrade and changes were different.
There were the normal common, uncommon, rare, and epic classes that he was used to, but there were also a few legendary classes related to ...

“What? Why?” Derek asked Edgar. Why would the man not want Blitz to be able to communicate with anyone? It seemed like a waste. It was much better when he made Silvi that communication necklace that let her speak out loud. If nothing else, it would make others feel more comfortable around an intelligent beast.
“Blitz… well… Blitz is a bit… different,” Edgar explained.
“Different how?”

It didn’t take long for Tyron to put two and two together. “So, those cells inside…”
Derek nodded. “Occupied by dragonkin. And there’s a wyrm with your name on it if you want it. You just have to agree to Dismantle the corpses you’ve collected. Make me a glaive and armor set out of the death attuned wyvern. And maybe make a few swords and a spear. Then, give me all the meat, and you can keep the remaining materials. Plus, you get a dragon.”

Chapter 278: Mission: Complete
After loading the drake into one of the cells, Derek and Avery fell into a proficient rhythm. Avery brought in a small variety of different beasts, choosing from amphitheres, wyrms, and drakes. The amount of amphitheres outnumbered the other varieties because they tended to be a bit smaller than the others, and easier to squeeze into a cell.
Luckily, there was a nature based wyrm that Avery found. Even though it was one of the bigger beasts, Derek ac...

Just as the last minute passed, they heard it. Another almost deafening roar sounded in the distance, followed by a chorus of similar roars. With the sound of on...

He hadn’t specifically invited the other two, so out of respect, he guessed, they hadn’t followed him and Avery. He didn’t actually care if they followed or not, though. Which was shown as he and Avery wer...

Then, Edgar could finally figure out what Achievement Avery had been talking a...
