I let out a low groan as I awoke, glancing over towards the computer. There were no flashing alarms, so the ten years must have passed without any real problems. At least, nothing major enough to warrant setting off one of my alarms. The first thing that I did once I got up was to check the time left until the invasion. Just over ninety-six days, huh? Wait, what’s this? I glanced at the corner of the screen, and there was a familiar icon blinking gently. Not one of my alarms, no this was far smaller…-

I returned to the Admin Room after creating the queen of the world spirits, but only long enough to change my body and descend to the underworld with Irena’s pen. This time, the process to absorb the spiritual energy went far smoother, as Leowynn was more aware of her own limits. She gained another thirty-six levels before her face appeared to be in pain again and she immediately stopped. Unlike before, she did not fall unconscious as soon as we came back to the Admin Room, even though Irena was…

I quickly ascended once again after I had dealt with the blackened world spirit, and called out for Irena to meet her in the halls. Once I got there, she was already waiting for me outside her bedroom door. Her stoic expression was betrayed by the quick glance she gave me when I came out of my room. “You wished to see me, sir?” She asked, clearing her throat and looking at me directly. “That’s right… I want to do something, but it will require your help. I want to make sure that you are able…

I let out a deep breath as I ascended to the Admin Room again, clenching my fists repeatedly. A long sigh escaped my lips as I fell down onto the bed, startling the catgirl that I hadn’t noticed sitting on it. “All done?” She asked with a light laugh. It had taken me a bit more than the four days to complete the rest of the ‘assignments’, but I had managed to take care of it. I gave a brief nod to Terra’s question. “Just got done with the King of Stakes.” I couldn’t help but groan as I…

Once the group had left the room, I silently sent a prayer towards Aurivy, asking her where I would need to go next. Next up is… the lycan. He’s at the homeland as well, so there’s no need to change bodies this time if you don’t want to. I gave a brief nod at that, checking my ki and mana levels, making sure that they were fine to continue. Okay… take me wherever I need to go, then. This time, there was no golden mist wrapping around me. Just a single blink and I had moved from the dimly…

I took a deep breath as I smelled the grass extending out to the horizon. For the first target, I had chosen to descend as a halfling. The body was more similar to a human than if I descended as a centaur, so it will be easier to move naturally. As soon as I opened my eyes, there was a message waiting for me, a paper that floated down from the sky to land in my hands… Jagen Fral, the wandering butcher. He enjoys finding those alone or in groups of two, and offering to guide them to a safe rest. Once…

Once I had returned to the Admin Room, I found Aurivy already waiting for me, sitting at the edge of my bed with her legs hanging off. She was humming happily as she looked at me. “Well, here you go!” She said, producing an information globe in her hand and tossing it towards me. “This is all of the information you’ll need on ninja techniques for your next training. I’ll work on making something a bit more detailed later, once I’ve had more time.” Saying that, she pushed herself off from…

As I passed through the trial, I found that each ‘trigger’ was different, as well as each one being in a separate section of the room, divided by one of the shifting walls. And… while I’d like to say that I got through it easily, that would be a lie. The second trigger was easy enough to find, but the problem was the third. The third section of the room had the slanted floor tiles shifting in seemingly random patterns. And no matter how I searched the various spell formations laid into the…

“So! Ready to head back to the citadel now?” Aurivy asked after the ‘lessons’ were over. “Or would you like to take some time to train a bit first?” Hearing the question, I began to sink into thought. In the long term, it will probably be good to practice the elementalist class. However, the class itself has some pretty clear weak points to compensate for its strength. Specifically, the time it takes to cast each spell is quite a bit longer than that of a normal mage, leaving them open to…

“Okay, so what’s next?” I asked, setting aside the three aeons that I had just created so that they could be moved to the Sky Citadel later, once the proper precautions had been put in place. “Well…” Aurivy let out a groan, shaking her head as she stood up. “Let’s just take care of the elemental monk next.” It was clear that she was far less enthusiastic about this class than she had been the summoner class. Which, naturally, piqued my interest. “What’s wrong with elemental…
