SNAPCRAFT | Ch. 15 - Obsessive Rumination

Author's note:

Exceptionally, this week, I'm an HC:P chapter on Wednesday instead of Thursday.

The reason for this is that the first volume of Hidden Class: Pacifist and Planet Ignis are available for free on Amazon!

This is the perfect opportunity to get a free copy or to share these stories with your friends.

I wish you a great we...

HC:Pacifist | Ch. 144 - Creature of the Night

Roth stepped aside and watched helplessly as all the other ants were served. His shock turned into indignation, and his indignation into a fiery inferno burning in his chest. How dare they call him lazy? And how dare they tell him off in front of all others? Nostrils flaring, and fists closed tightly, Roth tried counting to ten and then to twenty, and then to thirty, and he finally managed to calm himself down.

It wasn’t a big thing, and it had only involved NPCs. But, still, he had b...

Should [Peace Treaty] be buffed?

Dear patreons,

Thank you all for taking the time to answer my last poll about changing the membership tiers. So far, things are leaning toward changing them, and I'll implement that change soon.

In the meantime, I would like to ask you a question. One of my beta-readers was suggesting that I make the consequences of breaking [Peace Treaty] graver. 

Peace Treaty (Epic)

Skill Description: You are known to cherish the common good and can medi...

Thank you!

SNAPCRAFT | Ch. 13 - The People of the Bonfire

Spring of 346, A.D.

Albert had made a partial recovery. Despite Trudy’s insistence, he was back to teaching. Instead of taking them to the section of the museum that celebrated all past exams, though, he had brought them to a very simple room, filled with chairs, that had one single flame burning in it. Kai had never been here before.

“Today, our class will be slightly different. It’s important to study the past to improve our chances of doing well in D...

HC:Pacifist | Ch. 142 - Palatial Skirmish

The amount of light and mental energy that queens gave off was incomparable to that of the other ants. Whereas the larvae felt like little fireflies and worker ants like light bulbs, queens felt like stars. Roth knew the other ants didn't see queens as their rulers, but that didn't make them any less impressive. They brimmed with vitality and strength, and Roth couldn’t help but feel humbled in their presence.

Now, in the heart of the colony, in the cradle where the ants nurtured thei...

HC:Pacifist | Ch. 141 - Glue Gun

Nothing happened.

Inspect!

Even after trying again, Roth couldn’t inspect the ants’ crops. Roth frowned. The blindfold. Even though he could still get system notifications, he couldn’t inspect items. He scratched his beard. Was this a good idea? Should he just take the blindfold off? He shrugged. He wasn’t really in a hurry now, was he? He was out of the reach of Pegasus. He would just come back later and see the specs on the items.

The question was ...

Names of Patreon Tiers

Hey, my dear friends,

I want to ask you a question! I based the names of the tiers in my Patreon on my first novel, Planet Ignis. That's my least-known work. Therefore, I've been thinking about changing it and making it more about the world of Hidden Class: Pacifist.

What would you prefer?

SNAPCRAFT | Ch. 10 - Stonehenge

Autumn of 345, A.D.

Daisy’s cyber-monkeys and cyber-dogs went about the museum as they did throughout the city, keeping everything neat and organized. The museum was one of the biggest buildings in the capital. In the vast space, losing track of the others was easy. After each exam, the size of the exhibit only grew.

Kai and Alex had once tried estimating how many years would be needed before this building would be at full capacity. Alex’s theory was that...

HC:Pacifist | INDEX for Vol. 2, Hilsford

So that the index doesn't get impossibly long, I've put here all the chapters of volume 2. The volume will be stubbed in late November, at which time I'll remove it from my Patreon page.

HC:Pacifist | Ch. 140 - Wool Over One's Eyes

Despite the total darkness, every ant seemed to know exactly where they were going. The same couldn’t be said for Roth. At first, he started exploring while keeping his flashlight on. But even with the bonuses of [Inner Light] and badger form, he couldn’t keep it on indefinitely. The first couple of times this happened, he just stood still and let his energy bar recover. Once he realized how big this underground city was and how many times he would have to make stops at this rate, he trie...

SNAPCRAFT | Ch. 9 - Value of Perspective

Autumn of 345, A.D.

Albert mumbled a few complaints barely audible over the crackling of the wood and the chat of the people in the sector. His voice was primarily directed at Trudy, who ignored him. It was probably the same complaint that he always made. ‘Why can’t we just start at the library or the museum right away?’

“Very well, boys and girls, gather around. Welcome to my 2006th sunrise bonfire,” Kai looked at Alex, who rolled his eyes at the n...

HC: Pacifist | Chapter 138 - "You Have Guts!"

“Haha. You have guts, man.” Drake was laughing out loud on the other end of the line. It was better than the scolding he was expecting. SergeantSarg was also connected, but he didn’t share in the laughter. He regarded Roth with a severe face. The facial expression that he had undoubtedly learned in the army was squeezing the marrow out of Roth’s bones.

“Well. I’m glad you liked it, Drake?”

“Don’t get me wrong. I’m so furious at you, that next time I see you, I...

HC:Pacifist | Ch. 137 - Anthiochian Ripples

Roth left the call with his back drenched in sweat. Calling Loki was something that he had done out of spite and rage. It wasn’t something that he had thought through. He had just wanted to see his nemesis’ face as he told him he was his equal.

What he hadn’t expected was how good it had been for his psyche. He hadn’t felt afraid of Loki. As soon as he saw the man, all he felt was regret at putting him in a wheelchair. As they talked, he realized that Loki was taking his achieve...

SNAP CRAFT | Ch. 8 - Perceptual Memory

Autumn of 345, A.D.

Everyone was dressed in red gowns and held hands around the crematorium pyre. Even though Kai was holding Ariel’s hand, his heart wasn’t racing. Instead, it felt like a cold dead stone. Albert was the only one wearing black. He opened a notebook and began reading it:

“Neil Ferguson was born on the 5th of January 266. He died at the age of 79.”

“He came as an exile from one of the other sectors after his foster moth...

HC:Pacifist | Ch. 136 - The Dark Prince

Roth’s jaw dropped, and he stood dumbfounded, looking at the notifications. Fortunately, the ants were accommodating and bypassed him like a river running around a rock. He had discovered a new world region. How? He had only entered the ant’s lair! How was this a new world region?

He read the description of the new title he had unlocked.

HC:Pacifist | Ch. 135 - Micromanagement

Roth pulled the silkworm cocoon from his pocket and looked at the ant. Silkworms were intelligent creatures in the game. Could this be a new faction he hadn’t yet befriended? Now that he thought about it, when had he seen ants in the game? He didn’t recall ever seeing one.

Pulling the silkworm cocoon out, he paused before putting it back into his pocket. It had been several days since he had found the cocoon, and it shouldn’t take long for it to hatch. He looked at the encirclemen...

HC:Pacifist | Ch. 134 - Nice Mask

The player in the clearing had a race that Roth had never seen. His head was longer than normal. It was shaped like a cucumber as if the skull had run out of room to accommodate the brain. He stood with his arms behind his back and wore a brown and red robe that shone in beautiful patterns. This was a very high-level esper.

“So you’re Pax, the one who’s dared to get in our way and sabotage our plans.”

As Roth tried to recall how they could have found him out, he finally re...

HC:Pacifist | Ch. 133 - Bucky

Roth pulled the Broker’s Ledger from his bag and handed it to Bucky. He opened the book and skimmed through it. His eyes widened more than once, and his tail sometimes paused before accelerating again.

“You’re doing well for yourself, human. Ratans, foxes, badgers, crows, boars, alligators, snakes, and Soros… for the old man to trust you so much, it’s impressive.” Did he know Soros? No wonder. Golden Mountain Inc. was one of the biggest association buildings he’d seen.
