Late chapter today
I'm running behind on having today's chapter ready (actually, I was feeling ill and let myself sleep in, so I've only been up a few hours). I'm feeling mostly better now and the chapter's coming along well so it should be out in the next few hours.I'm not currently expecting ...
Arc 9 Teaser
Arc 9 TeaserPulled from a hopeless (if powerful) future back to the moment of Earth’s integration to try to improve the outcome, Serenity has met unexpected threats and unexpected allies - even friends. Everything is different this time.It’s been well over a year since the first Tutorial.The Tut...
Arc 8 Appendices and Commentary
Enjoy!-----------Character List of Corrupted DivinityThis list includes people mentioned in all Arcs to date.It does not include people with only a single mention or the “people” from the Story Dungeon; they are specifically for that Story. If I missed anyone more important than that (I often do...
Chapter 634 - Zenith
Enjoy!------------The next two weeks were difficult. The problem wasn’t Baron Celestials’ Rest; indeed, it wasn’t any single thing. It was a whole host of little, annoying issues instead. There was no one in charge until Ceney arrived, which meant no one was coordinating anything. Once she was...
Chapter 633 - Ceney
Enjoy!-----------It was half a day’s travel from the rally point back to Celestials’ Rest, but Serenity wasn’t about to let that stop him. They’d arrive in time for a late supper; that was plenty early enough. He left the other “generals” to their planning and headed out to handle the mo...
Chapter 632 - No Longer Slaves
Enjoy!----------Andarit was fine. From what Blaze said when Serenity was finally able to get away from Andarit’s chatter, she might well not have been without healing. Blaze noted that although no permanent damage was done, she was still bleeding internally when he got to her. Blaze wasn’t entir...
Chapter 631 - Replacement
Enjoy!----------Their next destination was an abandoned cave. Even if the presence of a weak ley line hadn’t told Serenity where they were, the fact that there was a path leading to nothing would have. They were at the site of the broken dungeon.Serenity couldn’t even tell there had once been a ...
Chapter 630 - A Journal?
Enjoy!----------“...the Iron Mountain Sect’s library.” Entherys whispered the words. There wasn’t much else he could do at this point.Serenity didn’t feel sorry for him. Compared to what he intended to do with (or, more accurately, to) his “loving wife” Andarit, Entherys hadn’t suffe...
Chapter 629 - Rescue
Enjoy!---------Andarit opened her eyes again. They were still blurry; she was definitely seeing double with one of them. She couldn’t tell which; maybe both?If only her blurry vision didn’t show the same thing it did the last time she opened her eyes. Her absolutely out-of-his-mind former betrot...
Chapter 628 - Cliff Dungeon
Enjoy!--------------“You think that Andarit is the other person in the dungeon with Entherys.” That was the only possible reason Verit would have told Serenity about Entherys when he asked about Andarit.“We found out she was missing the same day that we found out about the mystery pair in the ...
Chapter 627 - Tested
Enjoy!-----------:Are you OK, Serenity? I was expecting you here by now.: Rissa’s voice surprised Serenity; Verit was already in the middle of her attack and he didn’t quite manage the parry properly, so he stepped back to give himself a little more space.Verit pushed forward, taking advantage o...
Chapter 626 - Betrothed
Enjoy!-------------Margrave Iron Mountain looked up at Serenity when he entered the room. “You have a message from Duke Lowpeak?”The Margrave of Iron Mountain wasn’t much like Duke Lowpeak. He appeared at least a decade older than Kalo. Where Kalo was well-muscled and alert almost (but not qui...
Chapter 625 - Kalo’s Request
Enjoy!-------------Kalo laughed at Serenity’s joke. That was probably more than it deserved; Serenity didn’t think it was a very good joke. His grin only widened as he continued. “If they can manage a duchy, surely they can manage a city?”That was actually a serious question, even if Duke Lo...
Chapter 624 - A Very Small Army
Enjoy!------------Serenity approached the armored humans cautiously. They were probably working for Duke Lowpeak, but he couldn’t be sure; more than that, a single archer shooting at people in the distance was the worst choice no matter who they thought was coming. In fact, Serenity was beginning ...
Chapter 623 - Out of Mornmot
Enjoy!-----------If Serenity had to guess, the demons had added the gate. It weakened the walls and meant that the ward didn’t handle the gate properly; it was probably being treated as a wall breach instead of a gate. Wall breaches were never pleasant to travel through unless you overpowered the ...
Chapter 622 - Return to Mornmot
Enjoy!-----------Serenity’s estimate of a week was, unsurprisingly, low. Seventeen days after Lykandeon’s death, Serenity finally reached the portal they were going to use to leave Lyka with everyone who was coming with him. It wasn’t Serenity that was the delay; instead, it was the fact that ...
Chapter 621 - Checking Out
Enjoy!--------------Serenity ached. The last two days had stressed his system in ways he wasn’t sure would have been even remotely safe as Vengeance. He was pretty sure they wouldn’t have been. Admittedly, he wouldn’t have even been able to do them back then.Dealing with the spell during the e...
Chapter 620 - I Am
Enjoy!----------Shards of shattered reality. That was all there was.There had once been more. A lot more. There still was, truly, it simply didn’t make sense.Individual sensations that blurred into a confusing mixed-up whole. A whole that took time to comprehend and learn to deal with.I do not kno...
Chapter 619 - Checking In
Enjoy!--------------By the time Serenity checked in on the Underground again, the fight was almost over. There were a few pockets of resistance left; each seemed to be a Tier Five person the soldiers had left until they could concentrate their forces.Priestess Alanaeon was not one of them; Serenity ...
Chapter 618 - Enough
Yes, Wednesdays still suck. But here's the chapter anyway!Enjoy!-----------Priest Arkandaeon grinned. It wasn’t a pleasant grin; instead, it reminded Serenity of a shark’s smile. “So I did. You, soldier, what’s your identifier?”“Identifier XA-126.” There should have been no emotion...
Chapter 617 - Finding Arkandaeon
Enjoy!----------Ekari led the way back into the building; despite her earlier delay, she now seemed eager to talk to either her mother or Blaze, Serenity wasn’t certain which. Either way, she hurried and left Serenity behind when he chose to walk more slowly.Serenity knew he wanted to get his peop...
Chapter 616 - She’s with the Cart
Enjoy!---------------Serenity was startled out of his concentration on directing the Legion Soldiers to explore the blank parts of Aide’s map when the door to the suite opened. He’d been waiting a while, long enough that he’d checked in on Jenna repeatedly, but Blaze seemed happy watching the ...
Chapter 615 - More than a Distraction
Enjoy!-----------Serenity watched the rest of the interaction, but he didn’t get much out of it. He was too busy wondering about why it felt so different from the other visions he’d gotten from Aeon’s core. He was still wondering what was going on when the vision ended.Serenity reached out for...
Chapter 614 - Distraction Needed
Enjoy!---------------Aeon’s magic washed through Serenity. It was a constant distraction.Blaze talked Serenity into a quick meal, but Serenity couldn’t eat much. He already felt stuffed from the mana flowing through the nexus. Serenity leaned back and closed his eyes. His awareness of Blaze’s ...
Chapter 613 - The Power of a Small World
Enjoy!------------Serenity stared at Aeon’s core; his hand still rested on it, but he hadn’t seen anything from it other than the Voice’s messages when he “conquered” it. This wasn’t a safe place for the core, but he didn’t think he could move it, either. He’d never heard of a World ...
Chapter 612 - An Exhausting Fight
Enjoy!----------Serenity started with his duplicating knives. They would do exactly nothing to Lykandeon, but in a way that was part of the point. They would do nothing but they also cost nothing and they would keep Lykandeon’s attention off the fact that Serenity had swapped from magic to weapons...
Chapter 611 - A fight and a gift
Enjoy!--------------Serenity didn’t reply. Lykandeon didn’t need to know why he was being attacked; if there were any other approach possible, Serenity would have considered it, but there wasn’t. Not when Lykandeon ruled the planet and didn’t have a method set up for a peaceful change in pow...
Chapter 610 - Defying Divinity
Enjoy!-------------By the time the six of them reached the Palace, everything was ready. Serenity’s shield spell was active and everyone was up to speed on the plan. Serenity’s partial advance to Tier Eight changed the plan only a little; they’d already been counting on his over-Tier strength ...
Chapter 609 - Shields and Surprises
Enjoy!---------------It took time to get back to where everyone else waited, but Serenity spent the time well. He didn’t have a Skill for it, but he still knew how to make a shield. He definitely had the mana to support one, even one that was always on, and if he was going to fight Lykandeon he di...
Chapter 608 - Is that an offer?
Enjoy!-----------Serenity didn’t answer the Voice. He didn’t really know what he’d done; he just knew that he’d felt like he was being pulled apart and made to be not himself and he hated it, so he’d fought back.Now, he felt better. Of course, in this case, “better” meant that he felt ...
