Path of the Slayer B3 13. Progress & Plans

“So, I’ve come to a startling conclusion,” Merlin said, while welcoming everyone aboard Gunner, his Epic Dragon Gunship.

I came up last on the gangplank as the one-hundred-foot-long and fifty-foot-wide vessel floated in front of the Auction House.

The rest of the mountain and all its fancy, noble delights glimmered beneath us. The aristocracy watched, pointed, and gossiped in our direction.

Even after the killing we’d conducted in the Auction House, the Veteran guard...

LitRPG Con is hitting off nice

Gonna have some fun hanging with authors and fans in Denver for the first LitRPG Con. I dunno if any of y'all are there. Probably not. But I'm gonna have some fun and relax for once! Enjoy the high stakes and murderous chappies today!

Path of the Slayer B3 12. Fighters & Revengers

As Grimmy launched her surprise attack, I identified her powers with observation alone.

Grimmy’s Path Body enhanced her physically instead of empowering her with an element. Sword Step moved her even faster as she attacked with her shortsword. Path Sword made all of her sword strikes extremely effective mystically and metaphysically to an Epic degree.

She was also pairing her Path Magic with a Great Skill: Slashy Slasher Slash. On top of that, she was using what I’d instructed...

Path of the Slayer B3 11. Ambushes & Phantoms

“My wife is here!” Zez ran up to us while we were making our way through a lavish hallway that led to the auction atrium. The Veteran slid to a stop and bounced excitedly in front of me. “She’s staying out on the border of the Final Rose area. A Raider of her power has a way of, well, making a strong impression on other Veterans. Whenever you’re ready to move on, she’ll join us.”

“Wait, your wife’s a half-orc?” I asked, a little surprised.

“What?” Brug gasp...

Path of the Slayer B3 10. Rejoice & Prepare

“I need three-fifty,” Thumper said as all of us piled into one of the larger and more secured meeting hall rooms.

There was a long table at the center that could seat a hundred folks. The floor was covered in expensive and luxurious carpeting that was deep maroon. Along the walls were artifacts and wares that probably cost hundreds of billions.

It was all worth very little compared to what I had.

“Three-fifty what? Three dollars and fifty scents?” Merlin asked after ...

Path of the Slayer B3 9. War & Bids

I selected the yes option.

Other than Turak, a Ranker, the Pathwalkers in my squad jolted or shifted a little as they received the auction notifications, especially the juniors.

Grimmy, Syleth, Redfang, Noodles, and Brug cheered, albeit quietly. Kroker maintained his pious composure. Marnarka sat while trying to shrink into herself and be smaller than she truly was. And Velira kept casually flirting with Weaver.

Merlin leaned forward from his seat to look at me and Thumper q...

Path of the Slayer B3 8. Dunks & Roots

“Sir Arden the Nomad! Hello! Hello!” The Auctioneer took my half ripper hand in both of his and shook it with all the enthusiasm in the world.

He was sharply dressed in a black and white suit. His skin was a deep shade of red, and he had impish horns pointing from his forehead.

He felt like a Legendary Veteran, too, but not too far into the Level 100s. He might be Locked at Level 101.

“Oh, my, a fellow creature touched by the infernal,” Hellion said from my right. 2025-07-18 16:31:08 +0000 UTC View Post

Path of the Slayer B3 7. Intimacy & Modeling

“This is a powdered keg ready to blow,” Merlin grumbled, leaning back into the cushioned seat of our private booth. “All the freaking representatives of the four major camps are here! Dragon Supremacy and Path of the Dragon. First Elven Family and Path of the Monk. Forever Crusaders and Path of the Crusader. And Gigantomachy and Path of the Giant.”

Merlin sighed. “And what we have has them champing at the bit.”

“Elder Merlin was such a badass when he held his own aga...

Path of the Slayer B3 6. Socialites & Crusaders

[You’ve entered the Final Rose Auction House: Rank 4 (Legendary).]

It was weird going through a mini dimensional gate without my greatsword on my back.

No armor. No helmet.

Just my ruined Rank 5 clothes that cost a Rare fortune regardless of how fragile they were. That and the personification of the Doom Brand hanging on my back.

Still, I let the spatial shift flow over me. Void-like darkness blinked over my vision before I was snapped forward into a...

Path of the Slayer B3 5. Tools & Bulls

Outside on the mountainside, among the gardens and fountains and gazebos, Edwago huffed through his wide nostrils. He shook his big head, his large horns sweeping through the motes of light that floated about under a clear moonlit night.

The distant battles across the challenge floor sounded muffled beyond the walls of the Final Rose Auction House. Grass crinkled under his heavy steps as he moved away from the rest of the nobles who were clamoring or recovering from the embarrassing sla...

Path of the Slayer 2 is out on Amazon! Get it! Leave a review! Thank you!

The nice thing about the books is that they have a recap at the beginning to help jog memory. They're also a little cleaner.

By the way, please leave a review if you've read Slayer 1 and Slayer 2 and haven't done so for both books. Reviews on Amazon helps a lot and could bring in more readers.

I've been bad about asking this, so I should probably do it more often to remind people. It can all slip our minds sometimes, I know it slips mine.

Also, here's the cover!

Gotta Delete Slayer 2 from Patreon tonight. Official release on Amazon tomorrow

Hey guys, just a heads up for any late joiners. I have to delete Slayer 2 from Patreon tonight for the official Kindle Unlimited release tomorrow. I can't wait to see how it does.

The artist for many of my covers has worked on album covers ... I think it shows.

Author's Note: Slayer, OP Wizard, Rogue Ascension, and Conventions

So, I'm at the end of my third year as a full time author and in the next few months I'll be going into my fourth year. And despite that, it still feels like I'm learning my process and understanding what works best for me. And trusting my gut more.

For a while now, I've always had this war within me of doing what I want and doing what's best for the market. Finding that middle ground is crucial, but most of the time, when I lean toward doing what's best for the market, I still have fun...

Path of the Slayer B3 4. Nobles & Slaps

“No,” I said.

Weave.

Slap.

My metal palm caught her face with a smack that was partially a palm thrust without breaking the spirit of the event. By following through, I forced her into a backward flip while she kept sailing like a cannonball past me.

I didn’t bother to look back as a small notification popped up in my System Logs.

[1/35 self-important nobles!]

An elf flickered into view to my left, away from my Hellion Half Ripper. He...

Path of the Slayer B3 3. Half-Gobs & Secrets

Stepping outside with everyone, Grimmy had never felt so safe before. Not until she’d gotten to know more of Sir Arden the Nomad – or Arden for short.

Yeah, he’d shot her in the back. He’d had her thrown on a giant rock into a cannibal fortress filled with zombies. He’d nearly gotten them killed by a crazy elf Veteran lady, took them into a deadly trap of man-eating roses, and made her join a suicidal Royal Quest that might get her defiled. And every time she touched him, she ...

Path of the Slayer B3 2. Rogues & Gains

“Am I in trouble? What did I do? Is it because I’m ugly? I’m not pretty like Weaver. Nobody is. But aren’t I pretty like the other girls? Aren’t I?” Grimmy asked with a scratchy, half-goblin chitter to her voice, obviously nervous even while following me.

“You will turn heads at the Auction House. But I need to pull you away for now.” I stopped at the doors to the more secluded meeting section and turned to everyone. “Good job at taking this seriously, squad. And thank...

Path of the Slayer B3 1. Reflect & Inspect

“I’ve come a long way,” I said to my reflection. “A long, long way.”

No armor.

No helmet.

For the first time in a long time, since the days my old guild treated me as a pariah, I was dressed to impress.

I wasn’t waking up in my ratty bed in a slummy dwelling. My mind wasn’t plagued with stress from my inability to Rank Up beyond Rank 0.

There was no tightness in my chest. I wasn’t clenching my jaw until they creaked from sheer frustration, from op...

Overpowered Wizard B4 Ch16: Angry Teenage Years

Zarian rubbed his hands together as he checked on his achievements. There weren’t that many, but he was more excited about the potential quality of those achievements. If they were as big as he was hoping, then things were going to get even more nuts.
