Yeah I could see both Archacs and the Venusians trying to impose their will on Jake to beat each other to push past A-Grade. For them it’s life or death since they appear to be polar opposite mortal enemies. Jake in turn would side with the Miresnakes. They might even assist him with escaping one faction or another’s clutches. As Nomads they probably are more neutral and after Jake’s display of Villy’s aura, they probably see him more as a friend or kin than a tool for their growth like the other two factions.

jake finds Venus core. it's damaged. he juices it back together. two becomes one and Venus joins the 93rd.
Rob Lyon
I don't think any of the A grades will be able to enter the 93rd universe yet because it's still locked down by the system now once the system allows A grades from other universes to go to the 93rd I could see the boundary on the minor world weakening enough that they could leave but I think it's system imposed at the moment that's why none of the A grades have been able to leave so far
Rob Lyon
That or Jake will unleash Villy's aura and freak everyone out
Rob Lyon
Looks like frogs back on the menu
Rob Lyon
I think this is likely unless the venusians attack him which I could see happening the circle decided if they can't have him no one can. But to stop the war I could definitely see him unleashing Villy's aura over the entire battlefield and just dropping everyone to their knees
Jimbo
Are you sure?
Corvid
I just want to see someone's fan art of a snake with two honkin' beefy arms coming out of its neck
brjenness
how will jake react when scarlet confesses she thinks one of the death mire snakes is cute?
mapts
I really hope he decides to stop the war and take representatives of each race to the Order, that would be fun
Josie
Or they are OP venomous. I think the Corrosive Tide is like a tsunami from some deep activity within the Sea and the Sea is just poison death. I'd get real cranky if our Sea Serpent doesn't have an extra spicy bite
brjenness
or he needs to absorb jake's records to bring his family back.
brjenness
11 more micro worlds hidden in the milky way. each has a primordials flavor, but the most unique and beneficial to integrate variants are found in a different primordials flavor world (arachnecs). or just multiple species that strengthen jake's ties to the other factions...part you won't like...so they support him in his eventual battle with villy who turns out to truly be evil.
brjenness
are the snakes constrictors because everything here has high poison resistance?
The Dregs
I……really love that. That was very clever.

Artemis is watching this like… “So you’ve chosen genocide”
Josie
I forgot that would do the trick!! He could actually Bargain away these A grades, telling them it's a teleportation skill 😂
Josie
stuck between a frog and a webbed place, are we? 😊
Episode 19
"Backerkit going well" dude made more than 2000% of the goal 🤣🤣
Yeslek Nnamhctits
No... its already been stated thay while alike, the undead and death aura would directly clash with the ectognamorphs life energies. Like zog flat out said that... they aren't ectognamorphs even if they share a body... style? They might understand each other, even get along, but the arachnec belong with the blightfather. Also, the mind magic does not bode well for their fate.
Scion
An a grade with teleportation powers that they already talked about?
wartgalore
How did the venusians get here so fast? I thought it was days of travel both ways
Bookreader97
This is only assuming he’s capable of teleporting A Grades which I dunno if he can do. If this were to happen I bet the shaman and first spider dude he met goes
Bookreader97
I kinda have a feeling the big snake is gonna pull up right in the middle of the fight between the A grade frog and dead lady. Potentially even saving Jake
Justin
Oh boy almost certain Friday is going to be a big cliffhanger. Expecting a Miranda pov/3rd party pov tomorrow and Friday to be lit and frustrating haha.
Alex
I've a feeling killing jake would have a great many people die and villy go forth high score so to speak
Jason Smith
Are we gonna see Jake the peacemaker?

Love this chapter! So good! And what a cliffhanger! I’m hoping Jake can stop a war somehow in crazy Jake fashion. I hope the froggies at least survive! (Please!) Hey, at least it isn’t Friday or I’d be going nuts. 😉

jake still has bargain to show off villy's aura.
D
I think the Arachne and the frogs both know Jake is an ignorant interloper
D
What if the undead Arachne are a branch of one of the lost queens. Vespy and her faction wanted to get involved with the Order and handling these Arachne might be a way of doing it.

Solution: make a teleportation array and take the A-grades to the order. It improves Jake's profession, wastes time, solves everything diplomatically, and plays the good chosen by "giving" a treasure world to the order as an outpost since Jake's forces wouldn't be able to take advantage of it for generations much less improve it. Which also improves his profession. It is a winning situation for everyone. If Jake can manage to actually think of it AND convince peak A-grades to listen to him. Maybe throw in a few tokens to Nevermore too. Should help with leveling.
Josie
The miresnakes probably have enough common sense to realize shit is about to go down and they gotta try to get to the Sea Serpent before the spiders force Jake to take them across the Boundary
Corvid
To be fair, he whipped the implied threat of his big wiggly snake... friend out and waggled it in their faces for a minute.
brjenness
random comment: jake takes off pants. spider asks, and what is the purpose of that little thing? random scenario: big snake= big jerk. decides to kill jake for suggesting there are more powerful beings. villy shows up and squishes snake because minor world is only attached to 93rd, not part of it.
djthomp
So Invocation plus Pride is a questionable party trick to use when in long running dangerous situations. Thanks be to the frogs for showing up and interrupting this new plan of trying to take an A-grade undead spider lady out into the solar system.

Thank you for the chapter

What I’m really enjoying about this minor world is that they don’t have the norms of the multiverse. So Jake is in a relatively new position where the stakes are very different. It’s certainly interesting seeing him be judged in his own perceived power without the looming catastrophe of Villy being applied also
brjenness
my feelings are strongly towards jake getting pissed at both sides.
BumAssBumAss
Honestly, considering that these inhabitants don't have the translation skill that comes from being a forerunner, I didn't think they would be able to enter the 93rd universe, at least not the A-grades. I was expecting Jake to take them to the order of the Malefic Viper first.
Arieh Sochaczevski
Thanks for the chapter!
Corvid
For real, we should have a running tally of how many times insect ladies perv on Jake. Maybe zog has a thing for the concept. I've heard of furries, but never insecturries? I'm not googling it to fact check, no disrespect to the insect lover community.
Corvid
Villy just looks down at all of them and says "Nope, not worth it. Talk to my secretary-sisters. Better yet, go see Snappy. He likes frog legs.
Corvid
Vespy's just chilling and gets all distant looking. "Don't worry, Pa-Pa! I'm coming!"
Corvid
Frogs raining down on the spiders while insulting their hair, Fortunate Son blaring in the background because of CCR Records bleeding through. It finally begins

I was half expecting this Friday cliff to be nest mother attempting to get Jake. Villy notifying endless empire and by extension Vespy about someone "trying to take advantage" of her Sire. She going ballistic on the fact both it is her sire and /NOT/ endless empire getting the records. Swarming the world like locusts with her best Vesperian A grades for threat removal and few god-queens for observation. :/
Pantheon
Jake doesn’t necessarily need to bring A-grades out into the solar system to get them out of the boundary! He could also simply set up a teleport circle to the Order like he mentioned and bring people there instead. Once there Villy can stop any A-grades from smooshing him and seeing how important Jake is will discourage those who are too strong for him to handle from getting any ideas about trying to imprison him back in the minor world to use as a gatekeeper.
David Vieira
My guess is the fight starts and the Great Snake shows up creating a 3 way stand off. Jake blesses the Snake and forces an alliance. Then makes the teleportation portal to the order where they are swiftly humbled.

TFTC Zog!!! And congrats on a great launch!
Kevin Watson
That hit the fan way faster than expected. Any chance the Arachnecs interpret this as a double crossing? In my head I see a future where Jake is ducking shockwaves, maybe those snakes can move quicker? tftc
Fylbrom
Im kinda expecting this to go one of three ways. 1) Jake somehow becomes a master politician and creates a truce between the frogs and spiders. (Unlikely imo). 2) We get to see a battle that wipes out a huge number of monsters on both sides, maybe eradicating one race entirely. (For some reason, I think Zog is gonna do something that shocks us with how extreme the result is.) Possible 3rd... Jake blesses the Snake A Grade, and they shit all over the spiders and frogs alike and lay down the law. (Probably most likely but im hoping for evil Zog to peek instead) Great chapter yet again!
DirePants
I just want to see Jake ride atop a giant frog like Naruto and burst into battle in a cloud of smoke. But fuq this was a creepy Chapter! I was yelling like “WTF are you stripping for Jake??!!!” 😂😂😂 Makes sense though, being weakened while dealing with a peak A grade’s mental magic strong enough to command a hive. The Spiders are definitely more decisive tho huh? Or so I thought until the Venusians showed up like pot heads- wantin ALL the smoke 😂😂 Damn Jake🤦🏾♂️ you always get into the craziest shit. But the strong takes chances, that’s how they get there. I wonder if there’s some sort of requirement that must be accomplished before they’re allowed to enter the larger universe? Maybe Jake just being there is enough? Or maybe they can only enter if they have to have permission from whoever ends up being the ruler of the 93rd? Do you think 93 was chosen at random or if it’s relevant to the story? Maybe relevant to Zog but not to the story itself. Two more for the week! Glad Zog doesn’t take American Holidays 😁😂

Thanks for the chapter and hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday.

TFTC :) Suggested edits: "death affinity mana bore down on him, feeling almost like a physical force *pressing down on him*. " repetitive phrasing. rephrase or ditch the highlighted section. "as much under *his* influence as she’d" should be "her" "Jake didn’t *cut* further as the Nestmother" this doesnt seem right but I cant think of a word atm. "get any" maybe?
WantedByGhosts
TFTC! I don't really trust either the venusians or arachnids. It would be kinda cool if Jake does end up blessings the mirasnake A grade.

That was bad 🤦🤣🤣

I honrstly forgot about the venusiajs attacking till thr end xd got invested

Spider sense is tingling, red flags all over these arachnids. Bro, what if shaman or some of people Jake got introduced get killed in the rescue effort? Consequences would be cool.

tyftc. Correction I believe is needed @Zog "he was no longer as much under his influence as she’d perhaps expected. " "he was no longer as much under (her) influence as she’d perhaps expected. "
