(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 210 - The Effect of Element Seero

Author’s Note:

Sorry for the delay. I had to wikipedia railguns to make sure I wasn't being stupid with my immensely creative ideas that obviously had nothing to do with any extant sci-fi game series. Obviously.

Which means no epic struggle for you, Uscfrea! We brought too much dakka for that!

But not enough dakka. Never enough dakka.

Anyways!

Will Nonus stop drooling fast enough for Seero to learn what she needs? Will Melion break through the ...

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Side Story 209.1 - The Brave Defenders of Turannia

Author’s Note:

Schedule Announcement: I have decided that from now on, I will take Saturdays off as well on a more permanent basis. As such, this will be the last Saturday post for the foreseeable future. The reasoning for this is that the editing work is picking up, and I want to be sure I have enough leeway to meet the deadlines. And, like, I also need to edit and release the rest of the Faceless Minion at some point. In any case, we'll see how it goes for a bit. View Post

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 209 - Re-Terminate the Haunted Mausoleum?

Author's Note:

Huge undead dungeon, re-terminated! Or not, in fact not terminating it was kinda a major objective. Ah well, undead apocalypse, re-terminated!

...I only realized now that we already have a cheerful girl - paranoid guy combo. Um, oops? Thought about swapping them around but eh. The chapter's already written so whatevs!

Anyways!

Will Lavinia ever forget this? Will Fabian learn to stop being so paranoid? How are the other teams doing? Tune ...

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 208 - Dungeons and Divinations

Author's Note:

I'd name the chapter "Dungeons and Dragons," but that would require the dungeon to actually have dragons.

Which, supposedly, it did.

Supposedly.

Anyways!

Will Seero continue to improve on the Divination protocols? Will we actually find any dragons in this dungeon? Does the Haunted Mausoleum have anything else in store? Tune in next time, to find out!

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 207 - Catching Up With Friends

Author's Note:

...I'm sure those whispers are nothing to worry about. Besides, it's not like their spreading lies or anything, so it's fine, right?

Anyways!

Can Agedia and the others conquer the Mines of Might? Will Vafum ever get an explanation for this situation? What sort of rumors are spreading amongst the troops? Tune in next time, to find out!

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 206 - The Ultimate Weapon vs. The Land of the Dead

Author’s Note:

Terminate smarter, not harder as Lilussees would always say if she were ever awake long enough to say it!

Or be Seero, and be so efficient at termination you don’t have to do either! Except…that efficiency causes her to be both even though she doesn’t need to be.

Anyways!

Can Seero solo one of the largest dungeons on the continent? Will 01R conquer the skies for the Wise-Mighty-Gracious Boss-Queen? Will Lilussees get her full nap...

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 205 - Plan of Action

Author’s Note:

The Nonus part probably should have happened last chapter but I forgor and didn’t think about it until now. Whoops lol.

Because I’ve definitely never randomly added someone to a team and then kinda just forgot they were there! That would definitely never happen, and definitely wouldn’t require me to 2023-07-24 20:05:01 +0000 UTC View Post

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 204 - Terminate the Corruption!

Author's Note:

As expected, Shialnor giving Seero all the deets will have no consequences whatsoever!

And speaking of consequences...gasp how dare the people the South attacked not care that the South is now under attack by monsters! You'd think they're upset or something!

Anyways!

Will there be consequences to giving Seero all that data? Is this the extent of the Herald's plan? What will the South decide? Tune in next time, to find out!

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 203 - A Bear-y Vicious Fight

Author’s Note:

Awww the kids’ first errand.

It’s termination.

And 00B can terminate more than just emotional distress now! All shall receive bear hugs, if inevitable. Whether the hug terminates distress or squishy parts is up to the receiver.

Well…assuming he doesn’t just use the cannon.

Anyways!

Will Seero follow up on Ateia’s experiments? Will the servants of the Wise-Mighty-Gracious Boss-Queen prove themselves worthy? Can the...

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 202 - Thoughts, Prayers, and Protocols

Author’s Note:

Colleöne would be proud. And ever so slightly extremely concerned about the implications of the CELIU network learning how to directly mimic the Personal System assistance, but under the circumstances implications are a bit less important than solving the crisis.

Shialnor, on the other hand, would be jealous. She wants them to hurry up and figure out how to dungeon already so she doesn’t have to! Or she would, if she wasn’t upset and fighting...

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 201 - All Grown Up, and Efficient!

Author's Note:

If only there was some sort of magic that could give poor Lilussees some subordinates to 'delegate' to. But oh well! For now she'll just have to apply...the e-word

Meanwhile a certain hero is wishing he could be the one applying e-word, but turns out he's squishy and comparatively inefficient, so he'll just have to be carried with the rest of the meatbags.

Anyways!

Will Ateia and Taog terminate an entire dungeon on their ...

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 200 - Divide and Terminate!

Author's Note:

Yes, Amulius, stay on guard. It is going to absolutely incredibly difficult for you to keep Ateia and Taog safe. Definitely. It's not like they're a hero and an actual Aesdes or anything. And that armor is just there to look shiny. So be prepared. Seero is definitely counting on you to keep them safe.

Can Seero and co (mostly co) conquer the dungeons? Can 01R be of service to the Wise-Mighty-Gracious Boss-Queen? Can Amulius keep his c...

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 199 - The Dungeon Crisis Begins!

You know, I had that whole Academy business, but Seero never got to blow their minds! It’s high time we terminate the mages’ self-confidence!

And look! It’s Nonus! That other friend I totally never found anything to do with and totally didn’t forget about! None of y’all forgot about him either, right?

Can Seero terminate this new situation and protect the allied forces? Can the Imperial Mages overcome their predicame...

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 198 - Terminate the Imperial Family's Dungeon?

Author's Note:

Reminder: I'll be taking tomorrow off, so last post for this week!

Begun, the Dungeon Wars, have. Hope all the other dungeons got their Aesdes subordinates ready!

...this definitely isn't an backup war to the Elteno Civil War that Seero finished in like, a day or two!

Twice, if we consider Caelinus's empire to have actually started by the time Seero terminated it.

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 197 - The Fate of the Empire

Author’s Note:

Back to dungeon termination we go! I did plan for that to have a bigger role in the story before we got all involved with all that politics and emotions business.

But well, that assumes my ‘plans’ are anything more detailed than a vague notion that is immediately disregarded by the characters involved!

But it’s fine! I can’t lose control of a story if I never had control of it to begin with! Wise-Mighty-Gracious Great-U...

Author's Note:

EDIT: OMG, I forgot the most important part. Do...do I need more breaks? Do I need to replace inefficient organic components? Is Lilussees somehow transferring her fatigue to me?

Well that seems bad, but seems like the Legion got it covered, so I'm sure it will be fine.

Author’s Note:

Therapist Seero! Recommendation: Has the subject considered terminating the problem?

Oh, the problem’s like, Ateia’s dad or something. Fine, we’ll keep termination as Plan B then.

(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 195 - The Hero's Tale

Author's Note:

Eh, part of me thought about doing a full flashback side-story arc of all this stuff instead of just talking about it...but that'd be, like, so much work, or something, and require me to write an action-romance story that I know ends in tragedy. Err...ahem, it would obviously take too much time away from Seero...who...um...didn't get a POV in this chapter anyways...um...

Announcement: For this (7/8) and next week (7/15), I’m going to take Saturday off as well, for TWO days off a week! Sorry but the employees at my one-man company are lazy and don’t want to work, and demanding ‘weekends’ or something weird like that. Next thing you know they’ll want salaries and benefits! They might even demand me respect! The horror!

For context, some IRL stuff has increased my non-work workload over the past few weeks (...

Author’s Note:

Well there’s the Equalizer, but Iesnuorium is hard to find you know! I’m definitely not trying to keep Seero from mass-producing it and installing it on mass-produced drones to trivialize all future encounters with any of her forces.

Definitely not. Because, you know, Seero’s forces definitely can’t trivialize all encounters already…

Happy ‘Murica day for those of you who celebrate such things! Or happy freedom from ‘Murica day for the Philippines apparently as I just recently learned? And I guess the rest of you can kick back and relax and watch Americans celebrate by blowing themselves up with colorful explosives!

Now back to the story!

Gasp, the Herald didn’t trust the shady High-King conducting all sorts of diplomacy and subterfuge? What a shock!

Ah, yes. The eternal conundrum. How does one come up with contingencies that could potentially cause Seero even two seconds of difficulty?

Ok, I think we covered all the new toys, so all that’s left is termination!

So, um, that’s not a cliffhanger, right? Y’all good now, right? I’d ask if that’s enough explosion but there’s never enough explosion so that’s a silly question.
