Syl: Chapter 149
Chapter 149: MisfitsThere was one silver lining about all this mess, I had plenty of time to kill and continue to practice magic. Kappa had joined my other [Sub-Cores] at reaching the dreaded level five, and I had completed my Arcane affliction.<Spell [Mana Burn] discovered.>As I delved into the int...
Syl: Chapter 148
Chapter 148: Recruitment WoesEntering the tent, I was met with the sight of many tables and benches occupied by various colorful individuals wearing assorted gear and weapons. I had to block out my notifications as Beta nearly blinded me by trying to [Identify] everyone in the room. Thankfully, only...
Syl: Chapter 147
Chapter 147 : Ride the LightningStaring at the skill, I was filled with anticipation. Could I really buy this? A small part of me was nervous, but I pushed past it and proceeded to try.<Skill [Thunder Step LV 1] obtained. Skill Points remaining 12.>I felt so much relief, and it must have been clearl...

Chapter 146: Forced VacationEveryone was eagerly examining the materials. Luke was trying to catalog everything, Thern was inspecting the quality, Whitney was testing the sharpness of some of the claws, and Lisa looked like she was trying to ponder something."Any materials you planning on keepin...
Syl: Chapter 145
Chapter 145: Friendly InterrogationEntering the Adventurer's Guild while chatting with Whitney, I noticed a few cheers and jeers as people who clearly recognized me saw that I had returned. There were some murmurings about my "strange new class" and people pointing out my high level. I n...

Chapter 144: Sylvester's Last DayWith the pressure gone, Greg and I spent some more relaxing time polishing up the last few skills and lessons. I also ensured access to a few other good inscriptions, like resizing, stealth, and, of course, mental resistance. I paid what felt like an arm and a le...
Syl: Chapter 143
Chapter 143: Rune EngravingHaving finally achieved [Rune Engraving], we could move on to some of our final lessons. That's not to say my Enchanter journey was over; far from it, I still had much to uncover in my own time, and I had barely touched spherical enchantments beyond the fundamentals. G...
Syl: Chapter 142
Chapter 142: Final StretchAfter paying the fee, my guild tag was apparently appropriately marked to show that I was authorized. I also received a piece of parchment as a receipt that I could use in case someone asked for proof that I could access the inscription. I was a little shocked at how much s...
Syl: Chapter 141
Chapter 141: Time CrunchI felt like I had almost enchanted half the city and wondered what favors or deals were pulled to allow me such exclusivity. However, I did note that I didn't step a single foot into the actual inner city, so either they had arranged permanent enchantments, or my work was...
Syl: Chapter 140
Chapter 140: Rune Carving"Now, this is where the real fun begins!" Gregory said excitedly.Some tools, ranging from farming implements to blacksmithing, were placed on the workbench, and over a dozen more were sitting in a barrel. Two barrels full of weapons, separated into swords and spears,...
Syl: Chapter 139
Chapter 139: ProgressBefore I knew it, I had spent over a week with Gregory, learning the ins and outs of being a basic Enchanter. Once Gregory saw how well I took in his lessons, combined with my gains from [Prodigy] and [Apprentice], it became a relentless pace of nonstop learning. I'd swear h...
Syl: Chapter 138
Chapter 138: Rune EtchingThe next day, when I arrived in the lesson room, there was a note written on the chalkboard informing me that Gregory would be a little late and that I should take the time to practice drawing circles of differing sizes.'I mean... How hard can it be?' I thought, intr...
Syl: Chapter 137
Chapter 137: Circles and SpheresAfter shifting into a new wardrobe and eating breakfast, I headed towards the Merchant's Guild. While part of me thought it could be fun to rock the boat, I didn't necessarily want to antagonize the man who was going to be teaching me. After all, if our relati...
Syl: Chapter 136
Chapter 136: An Irrefutable OfferThe next day, I awoke with a surplus of time; my guild visit was scheduled for after lunch, allowing me to explore the city from a fresh perspective. I donned a new set of simple robes and left the inn. The transformation was remarkable; I no longer felt the weight o...
Syl: Chapter 135
Chapter 135: Sylvester's First DayIt was late afternoon when I finally reached the city gates; thankfully, I had shaved off an entire day's travel time by flying most of the way. There wasn't any foot traffic leaving the city, and I was forced to join the line to await entry. When it was...
Syl: Chapter 134
Chapter 134 : Goodbye Glimmerock"One of my traits is eleven now... But I definitely didn't buy the upgrade... Did Gramps buy it for me? That hardly seems fair; I want a refund." I moaned."I don't know whether to say congrats or sorry..." Trixie said with an odd frown. "Ge...
Syl: Chapter 133
Chapter 133 : Forced Evolution"So does this mean I'm the first [Experiment] evolving?" I asked. I wondered if this technically meant I was eligible for a reward if Gramps won a bet."No. You're not even in the top five, even with this early evolution." Mother immediately respo...
Syl: Chapter 132
Chapter 132 : TribunalThings were once again under control from Gramps' perspective. He had secured a solid conspirator by completing a few new traits, which, in all likelihood, he would have created anyway, as once he got a new idea, he seldom would let it sit and rot.At the same time, he devis...
Syl: Chapter 131
Chapter 131: Routine Island LifeBy now, crafting debuffs had become a well-practiced routine. I executed the familiar motions, swiftly replacing them with Lightning Mana. With [Mana Conception LV 6] and [Mana Manipulation LV 5], I felt akin to a surgeon wielding a scalpel instead of a blunt knife. T...
Syl: Chapter 130
Chapter 130: Sparks"Judging by your reaction, I'm guessing that was a success?" Trixie asked, fluttering over.I shifted to my familiar elven form and rolled my fingers while casting my new spell, causing sparks to surge between my fingers. "You tell me," I said with a cheesy grin...
Syl: Chapter 129
Chapter 129 : Yellow HuntThe next day, Trixie's minions found two more sources for us to investigate. I was hopeful for our plan, but when the first monsters we encountered were a bunch of fresh harpies, I couldn't hide my disappointment. Dispatching them was a simple experience; I just had ...
Syl: Chapter 128
Chapter 128: Hot-SpringIn a truly astonishing turn of events, Trixie had awoken before me. It was a surprise I couldn't quite fathom. Before leaving my bathtub bed, I confirmed that Gamma was successfully restored and appropriately filled myself out with a bit of reserve slime.Outside, I found T...
Syl: Chapter 127
Chapter 127: Cascading EventsThings had been going well for 'Gramps.' While there were minor hiccups and occasional disappointment from one of the experiments, it was a resounding success in the grand scheme of things. After all, you must break a few eggs to make an omelet. Finally, some pro...
Syl: Chapter 126
Chapter 126: Levels Galore"I did it," I said with relief.Although I glared briefly at the sparkly rainbow cloud, that was all that remained undine, which denied me a new meal full of traits. If all spirits behaved like this, then I was putting them on the shitlist just like those damn ghosts...
Syl: Chapter 125
Chapter 125 : UndineI knew I'd lose in a battle of Water versus Water, so I shifted my alignment to Fire as I figured it was the directly opposed element. I hesitantly ordered a [Flammable] cast; my concern was that she could pull a Trixie and eat my debuffs. Simultaneously, I prepared two [Fire...
Syl: Chapter 124
Chapter 124: The Final SourceAs expected, I awoke before Trixie, who had somehow managed to entangle herself even more in her hammock. I stealthily made my way out of our expansive tree fort and resumed my practice. I was becoming increasingly adept at merging a basic projectile spell with an additi...
Syl: Chapter 123
Chapter 123 : Egg"Come on, show me, Syl! You can't hide it forever," Trixie urged, her eyes gleaming with anticipation."I really don't want to... Look, I've got much more interesting monsters." I replied, my body shifting and contorting into the massive form of the earths...
Syl: Chapter 122
Chapter 122: The SurpriseIt didn't take long to return to the cave. The familiar jingle announced my presence, and I transformed into a harpy, hoping to catch the queen off guard with a [Sneak Attack]. But to my surprise, despite her earlier promise to prepare, the harpy queen was simply loungin...
Syl: Chapter 121
Chapter 121: Harpy NestI promptly showed Trixie the [Manhunter] emblem; she stared at it momentarily before chuckling. "That hardly makes you an enemy of humanity, Syl; stop being so dramatic.""Even if I'm being a little paranoid, surely this isn't a good thing? I'd certainly...
Syl: Chapter 120
Chapter 120: Harpy CaveThe entrance to the cave loomed before me, a vast maw that seemed to have been carved out to accommodate the harpies' frequent comings and goings. I morphed into a more amorphous form, clinging to the ceiling and blending in with the roughly worked stone, my colors mirrori...
