So... I just realized I updated WIEDERGEBURT a day early... I'm not sure how I got my days worked up, but it might be a sign of old age.
Anyway, since you got my chapter a day early, I figured I would show off this artwork today. This is the finished character sheet for Teen Kari drawn by SnowMishibari.
As always, the character is naked because it is easier to draw a character in different clothes if ...

This is another freebie. Snow sent this to me just now for my birthday, so I'm sharing it with everyone.
Did you know two of my artists are nicknamed Snow? There's SnowMishibari, who does the art for WIEDERGEBURT and Snow-the-Wanderer, who does the art for American Kitsune.

Part of the wall was dented and appeared on the verge of collapse, the ground was split wide open from where Torgny had used his giant fire python technique, and there was also a several meter wide crater.
As she sat there, she listened to the elders of the Valstine Family as they spoke about what they had just witnessed.

My opponent for the semi-finals was Catalyna Kriger, the woman who had defeated Fay. She and I stood with a ten meter distance separating us. Rainer stood between us but several meters away so he wouldn’t get caught up in our attacks if we started using Spiritual Techniques right off the bat. I stared at the woman. My frown must have sparked her interest.
“Is there something wrong?” she asked, smiling.
My frown grew. “You said something to Fay, didn’t you?...

“This should be an interesting battle,” Mikkel said as Fay and Catalyna walked onto the arena floor.
Kari’s gaze was pinned onto her former childhood friend. She bit her lip as she stared at the confident and determined expression on the girl’s face. Would it be inappropriate if she cheered for her?
“Catalyna Kriger is a member of the Kriger Family,” Geirolf mumbled as though talking to himself. “As a family that holds martial prowess in the highest rega...

I just want to let you all know that Snow has sent me the artwork for American Kitsune vol. 10, A Fox's Alliance, which means I'll be formatting my manuscript for paperback and kindle. I'm hoping to have this published by April 23rd.

Unlike with my previous battle against Grant Leucht, this time, I was the one who started the fight. I swung the Dragon Tail Ruler in a vertical arc, channeling lightning through it to undo the locks that allowed the segments to separate. Linked together by my Spiritual Power, the segments moved like the tail of a dragon as I willed them to attack Hellen.
I narrowed my eyes as Hellen stepped forward to meet my dragon tail attack head on. She raised her blade just as my atta...

Since you all get early access to my updates, I wanted to show you the artwork Claparo is doing for Arcadia's Ignoble Knight vol. 5. He's got all the sketches and stuff down, which means he's going to ink them soon. Shouldn't be more than a month or two... I think.
I hope you like them!

This is the WIP for my art this month! It's everyone's favorite narcissist, Erica Demonica de Angelo from Arcadia's Ignoble Knight.
As always, anyone who is Succubus-tier and above will get the SFW version while Kitsune-tier patrons will get the NSFW version.
The artwork is by Orendi Laran, who draws some pretty damn good waifus.
2019-03-09 15:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostKari observed the current fight between Marko and Catalyna Kriger. While she wouldn’t say it was a boring match, as the two were trading fast-paced strikes and numerous C-rank Spiritual Techniques back and forth with incredible finesse and skill, she would admit that she wasn’t very interested in this battle.
Down below, a beautiful woman in her early 20s swung a large sword that was bigger than a broadsword but smaller than a claymore. It had jagged edges. As she swung it, nine cra...

“You remember the terms of our agreement?” I asked.
Grant sneered. “Of course I do.”
I didn’t let his sneer bother me right now. I hated this person more than anyone even the Great Overlord of the Seventh Plane, but I wouldn’t let that rule me. Taking several deep breaths somehow allowed me to keep my cool. Right now I needed to remain calm, placid, like a perfectly still lake. Deep breath. In. Out. I could do this.
“Should I win, you will cease an...

We had been hired to accomplish a joint job with another sect. The Battling Valkyries were in need of a group that could help guide them through an ancient ruin located on a peninsula north west of Midgard. It was located amidst a dense jungle. While the location itself wasn’t known, everyone knew it was there—the group the Battling Valkyries were after was the same group who’d killed those people from the Mountain Sect, the cultists who worshiped the Great Overlord. 2019-02-28 15:31:08 +0000 UTC View Post

I glanced at the sky as I walked back home. The stars hadn’t come out yet, but dusk was upon us. A lot of people were already inside of their homes. When I looked back down, I could see lights being emitted from behind the cracks of closed doors and wooden shutters.
With a small bag in my hand, I increased my pace and reached my house, entered through the door and slipped off my boots. As I locked the door behind me, the sound of something slithering across the floor reac...

This isn't really an update on anything Patreon-related, but my horde of keychains just came in, and I will be shipping out everyone's order tomorrow. If you ordered a keychain, expect an email soon from my Storenvy with the tracking number and all that good stuff. I'm not sure how long it will take for everyone to get their order, but be sure to keep on the lookout for cute chibi characters!

I stood at one point of a pentagon alongside four other combatants. Two of them were women, while the other two were men. I didn’t recognize anyone. This didn’t surprise me.
Two of the people, a man with light brown hair and a woman with dark blonde hair, seemed to know each other. They were trading banter back and forth about which one of them would win. Those two were wearing the armor of a Nevarian Spiritualist, which was like the standing army that protected Nevaria...

SnowMishibari sent me the character sheet for Adult Eryk Veiger. As you can see, he is quite naked.
I actually have a reason for this outside of being fair because Kari was also naked. It's easier to draw characters in different outfits if you can see the contours of their body.
Anyway, please sear into your eyes the sight of this naked dude.

SnowMishibari sent me this WIP of Adult Eryk Veiger. I think she's got his look down pretty damn well. He looks like a badass pretty boy. Totes the dude that Kari has been boning in the "past" timeline.

She stood there, unable to do anything except watch, as the other four began battling against each other. It was like they hadn’t even deemed her a threat. She wasn’t sure how to feel about that, but she also knew that having them underestimate her would be an advantage.
Two battles had broken out. One of them was between the armored woman and the old man, while th...

Unlike when Eryk had fought against Albert in the Honor Duel, the Colosseum stands were filled to the brim today. Kari couldn’t even begin to guess at how many people were in attendance. The lower, upper, and middle-class seating was fit to bursting with people. It was like staring into a sea of hair that featured numerous different colors.
She was once more sitting in the chair next to her mother. Her three brothers were also present, but her fathers were not. Valence, R...

There were many ruins scattered across the continent. Some were small. Some were vast. Some were buried deep underneath the ground, while some were even rumored to be floating amongst the clouds. Very little was known about these mysterious ruins, which had been present since before the Catastrophe. Even after thousands of years of study, humanity was only able to scratch the surface.
The ruins that Kari and I were exploring were deep within a mountainous regio...
