  • by John Williams  Max frowned deeply as he sat in a pool of poison.  ' Why is it that every few days I find myself in a situation where my body is subjected to mind numbing pain? ' Max wondered as he could not help but feel slightly depressed at his life choices.  Ever since he had decided to defy his destiny and live his second life to the fullest he had often found himself in situations where his body was subjected to an unimaginable degree of torture that could scar one's soul for several…
  • by John Williams  Everything was not as simple as it seemed.  Often Max had wondered what was the reason behind Angakok taking personal interest in his training to the point where he agreed to babysit Max while he did level training on an unknown planet.  He was a god, every second of his divine time was extremely valuable, which meant that the reasons behind him training Max the way he did were also massive.  Max was not dumb, he understood that since Angakok was investing so much into him, the moment where he…
  • by John Williams  Max and Angakok were back together again in the confines of his space bubble. The duo had left behind the fiery pits and embarked on a new journey to an unknown planet. Max had hoped that completing his training ahead of schedule would earn him some praise from Angakok. However, as expected, the Shaman God remained emotionless, not offering a single word of appreciation to Max.  This time, Max didn't bother asking Angakok about their destination or the purpose of their visit. He had come to…
  • by John Williams  Angakok watched patiently as he saw Max devour a phoenix's blood.  After living for over 5000 years, Angakok rarely got excited or startled by anything but today was one of those days where he felt his heart pumping slightly faster than usual.  As a tier6 god, he had the opportunity to fight against a Nirvana Phoenix once and he still remembered the burn marks left over his body as he suffered under the beast's attacks all for trying to get a single feather from its back.  He had greatly…
  • by John Williams  ' Salty '  That was the word that came to Max's mind as he tasted the blood of the phoenix for the first time ever.  His decision to drink Phoenix blood was on a whim because he could not conjure any other moves, however, the effects it had on his body were something he had never anticipated.  The Nirvana Phoenix was a magical creature whose blood was one of the most critical components of several life-extending alchemical potions.  It was rumoured that the fresher the blood was the more…
  • by John Williams  ( Day 32 )  Max was finally only one level away from reaching the maximum level limit for his tier which was a testament to his growth rate which far exceeded even Angakok's wildest expectations.  A part of it was because of Mira who contributed 6 levels in total, but a major part of it was because Max had become very proficient in hunting the monsters of pit of fire and could hunt many more than he could in his first week here.  Having learnt Firebending, his attacks were now way more versatile…
  • by John Williams  ( Max's POV )  Max's level had increased by 2 while he was asleep which was a pleasant surprise for him as it seemed like Mira was working hard on her end. Because of his soul-bond with Mira, his levelling speed right now was half the speed it would be if he were on his own, but Max was not complaining about it since if it were not for Mira, he would probably not even be tier4 yet.  The dragon soulmate of his had been carrying his levelling progress for a long-time now while he catered to his…
  • by John Williams  ( The council of monarchs )  Michael's declaration undoubtedly increased the tension in the room. Amongst all the monarchs and the monarchies under them, the angel monarchy was the strongest and the staunchest supporter of the light faction which was why Micheal was allowed to act so rowdy in front of his equals.  " The beast kingdom will be neutral in this war, many participants on the other side are also beasts and the constitution considers all sentient beasts who have overcome their base…
  • by John Williams  Day after day, Max went out to the pits of fire to hunt powerful fire creatures, as his constant struggle against the environment started to bear extra fruits in the form of constitution and endurance stat improvements from all the running around that he did in the high heat.  By now, Max had hunted every major creature native to the planet and was slowly learning their attack patterns and weak spots, as everyday he would return to the hut less injured than the previous one showing Angakok that he…
  • by John Williams  Max returned to the make-shift Hut made by Angakok covered in cuts and bruises from head to toe as he looked like a homeless beggar having undergone a ruthless street fight rather than a dignified lord of a territory. Angakok spared a glance at him and then outside the tent as he said " Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy, you rely on your skill-set too much and not enough on your basic stats.  The skills are just supplementary, the most important part of a fighters skill-set is his basic abilities.  You…
