She was surprised to see him approaching her desk. He could see her panicking.
He was there before she could find some kind of excuse to run off. He had waited for a moment when she was free of her normal surrounding psychofants.

And the skill he used to conceal his informa...

Salazar badged into her office like she owned it. She did own it, but she was aggressively rude nonetheless.

Gud made a point of looking around all innocent like, pretendin...
2025-05-28 16:00:11 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Because keeping a rigid story structure has been much harder than I thought. I'm trying to do a whole act of setup, and then another act for fun and games, and then the final act. Which this time should be explosive and cathartic and the whole deal.
Two months ago.

All Rafe could see was that in the context of this planet, he was a rich man walking. Something didn't make sense though.
“Credits are the main currency in the multiverse though? A hundred for half the population put together seems a bit…”
“Small? No...

2025-05-24 18:23:13 +0000 UTC View PostRafe looked at his quest screen first. Just to be sure. The girl was important, but nothing in the wording said he had to take this kind of shit.
Rafe's posture changed subtly. He stretched out his hand, getting ready to summon his sword at a moments notice. He glared at Helare and got read...
2025-05-23 15:30:04 +0000 UTC View PostFor some reason, Rafael Kingsley found himself helping the girl who'd once kicked his head in drag a golem towards an unknown camp. He did not know how things had ended up this way. Since when was his life not his own?
And the other girl? The supposed princess. She was walking beside him an...

Rafe probably wouldn't recognize half the people he fought on the staircase in the tower if he met them in the multiverse...

He heard the sounds of battle not too far away. The place his attempted straight path had taken him was a ragged terrain of grassy hills and hillocks and small valleys. The hill he...
2025-05-20 19:53:26 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Think I have enough semi-edited content for daily updates up till Saturday!
Rafe couldn't help it. He laughed. It was slow at first, his smile still frozen on his face. But it quickly became uproarious, unhinged. His body shook.
Of course the system had betrayed h...
2025-05-19 17:44:13 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: And so the story begins. Tomorrow or the day after. I need a nap.
A sense of bliss led Rafe through the next two weeks.
He'd spent hours after seeing the system notification just staring at his status. But then his stomach had rumbled, and he'd decided it would be a ...
2025-05-17 16:59:56 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: So tired today.
Rafe remembered his first- very fast - and brutal introduction to the multiverse. To magic. Two magical beauties - none jade, that he could remember - had almost taken his head off.
Now he was back in that same dungeon. L...
2025-05-17 16:43:50 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: I actually have the chapter after this edited as well, but I want to publish it as close to the one after it as a lot of it is current status screen. We need more status screen chapters. This is a litRPG after all. Anyway, I'm a bit tired after writing a new chapter earlier and then spen...
2025-05-16 10:54:25 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: This is long overdue. I don't know how I'm going to be naming the chapters going forward. The title is subject to change therefore. Enjoy.

2025-05-11 17:00:52 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Counting Error! There were five epilogue chapters, though the one after this one is shorter than most. Which is why I hadn't counted it as an individual chapter. It will be out in a little over an hour and then the last one an hour after that.

2025-05-11 16:09:46 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Since I haven't looked at these chapters in a while, my perspective has changed a bit and now I can do a bit more revisions than if I had posted them earlier. Hopefully the overall quality is a lot better than it would otherwise have been. The last two will come out within the next fifte...

And next week we will start volume two. Thank yo...
2025-05-09 15:34:58 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: There you go. Let me know what you think. We won't be getting into the loot until next volume, and unfortunately this week is all about those epilogue chapters. So join us on Monday to see what Rafe got, if you're curious. Also, sad to say goodbye to some characters for a while at least....
2025-04-30 16:28:07 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: This chapter has come a lot later than I wanted due to some unexpected occurrences in real life. Due to this and some other problems, I have decided to continue on with only this tier for the time being. I barely have that many patrons as it is. I'm getting enough pocket money to afford ...
2025-04-30 13:21:19 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Thank you to those who took some time to advise me. In the end, RR is a free site. I think all this worrying about money may cause some problems with my creativity. So I've decided to at least spend this month focusing on volume two. Maybe make it to volume four before seeing a way forwa...
2025-04-28 16:09:40 +0000 UTC View PostA/N: Sorry it's late. As I was getting ready to release today's chapters - and yes, I said chapters - I realised I had forgotten to do an end of volume status check. So I had to rush this chapter in between. Still want to finish the volume this weekend. But I now have to revise the last two. ...

Maybe she thought he'd run out of stamina before she ran out of mana. And she'd be right, in most cases. Rafe only had to apply the sec...
