The patch was still a week away, which meant that my meeting with Balu naturally came first. After roughly two days of waiting, I received a message from Balu, inviting me to go over to her Admin Room That… honestly, it surprised me. She had always been the one coming to me, so I thought that was just how the Gilded Branch operated. That said, she did make a special note asking me to bring Bihena along with me. It had been a while since the two saw one another, so I didn’t mind taking her over. Once I…-

After Udona had finished grabbing her snack and went back to her room, I put in a call to Balu, saying that I would like to purchase information about UpperLevel if any were available. Unfortunately, she seemed rather busy at the time, so she said that she would be by in a few days to handle the transaction. She even promised me that she was going to set an alarm and write it on her wall to make sure that she didn’t forget. Curious, I asked what had her so busy, and it turned out that she had just…

Once again, the days seemed to pass without end. As time went on, I was forced to realize just how complex these higher level martial styles were. As the Keeper, I could immediately establish the highly intricate ki paths needed to perform the Twelve Shattering Hands, but even afterwards, the style required a considerable amount of practice and preparation. In the end, I managed to successfully practice all twelve techniques, though I would by no means call myself a master of them. In doing so, over the…

Later that night, Aznod found himself in his room, his virtual reality headset lying on his bed in front of him. Even though he did not often indulge in games, Udona made sure that every resident of the palace had the most advanced gaming equipment available. Also the most advanced terminals, and really anything that they would enjoy media with. Aznod laid down on his bed, putting the headset on. As soon as he pressed the button, there was a brief feeling of weightlessness, before he was standing in a…

For the next few weeks, the world had entered a lull. Most of the weaker gods had long since left to try to find their own world, some disappearing to the unknown dangers of space, while others found places to call their own. This left Earth and the other similar worlds… not quite safer, but certainly more quiet. At the same time, James and his research team were beginning to set up defenses within the void to prevent most types of void monsters from interfering with the world. Thanks to them, I…

I made my way through the frozen corridors, quickly catching up with the elven figure walking the halls. When he saw that I was able to move, his eyes went wide in shock. “Mister Keeper, sir, what a pleasant surprise to see you!” He said, though I could feel the worry in his surface thoughts. “Surprise? You’re in my house.” I pointed out with an arched brow, causing him to be taken aback. “Hm? Well, yes, I suppose I am. Funny thing, that. You see, everywhere I go, everything seems to freeze…

It didn’t take long for Aerial to respond to my message, though it seemed that she was likely in her world at the time, and needed to be called back to the Admin Room. There was a pause after I said that. Most likely, Aerial was checking the records to see what the end result of the invasion had been. However, once she was done, she quickly got back to replying. I nodded my head at that, knowing that she was probably right. Quite some time ago, Sarah had told me that the big divide between the…

Thankfully, it didn’t take long for us to get our Virtual selves into the training program, while also getting a set of virtual reality gear for Gerard. Once I was in the virtual environment, I saw Vivi standing there and waiting for me. “Do you not have to manage Vision Expanse?” I asked curiously, unsure why Vivi was able to be in this training program. “Oh, I still do.” Vivi assured me with a shake of her head. “However, the popularity of Vision Expanse has dropped to the point that people…

“Good afternoon, Fifi.” I nodded towards the computer after seeing the message. “This isn’t my first time getting one of Sarah’s game worlds, so I’d just like to ask if there is anything special that I need to know about this one.” Fifi hesitated for a moment at that, before a message appeared on the screen. When I saw that, my brow twitched in surprise. “Sarah hasn’t started using real souls, has she? I know that she was rather opposed to doing so when I last spoke with…

“Next up is me, I suppose.” Ryone said with a small smile, shaking her head. “Don’t worry, I’m not going to ask for the fifth tiers of magic knowledge or anything. The fourth tier itself is already something that most of the world is unable to use. Instead, I’d like a custom-designed system to replace the current divine tokens.” I raised an eyebrow in interest, and Ryone continued. “Instead of tokens that generate purely from faith in a single deity, and can be used only for that deity’s…
