Tea! Time for tea. Maybe some Primal Origin energy into the Lake of tadpole eggs. That would win friends. Tyftc

Interesting, Jake is in actual danger here, potentially. Not just because it's a closed off minor world, but simply for being in the 93rd universe. And not in a curated environment like a dungeon or a hunting ground or a event overseen by seniors etc. There has been much of that, since he's part of a top faction of the multiverse, but it's very nice to have some good old solo adventure as well. I reckon he has ways to teleport away or call for rescue still, but that's normal. It's good also that everything and everyone there is real, too, and not generated as a learning aid for the little kiddies. If he went on a slaughter, he'd be killing real people, real monsters, real mushrooms, etc.

I admit...not being a bunch of mushroom huts is disappointing...only for the fact it would irk/traumatize Jake and provide more joke material for villy

Tyftc Zog, get well

Hard to say. Yalsten had eons of backstory, but the indications were that it was created in our era. Whether that history is ārealā or fake is sort of a philosophical question, but the System clearly doesnāt need to use something as crude as time dilation to get it done.
DefinitelyNotMinaga
It is not a universe so it cant be integrated in such a way. Unsure if all minor worlds have laws that the rest share as well but Yalsten was sealed off into its own pocket world after being part of the multiverse beforehand. One must assume not all pocket worlds share the same backstory or link to the multiverse. Interesting possibility though, helping integrate a minor world would definitely have some sort of reward... maybe a title?
Corey S
With them saying it has been a few hundred thousand years, Iām thinking there is a massive time dilation here. Therefore Jake should hopefully get to spend a long time here working on himself and when he gets pulled out for the system event, he will be a lot more powerful
Corey S
Yep Villy was right when he mentioned not pissing off any A grades haha

Tftc Zog!

I imagine ninja turtles without shells
Josie
Are these bipedal frogs? It's described as a walk to the center of the village but in my head, which may lack imagination, I see hoppers and Jake striding to keep up
Daniel Hamilton
Curious, if you get something special for introducing the system to a New World and helping them integrate

Thanks for the chapter!

Thanks for the chapter.

Oh knowledgeable and slightly mad one, what is dotf?
brjenness
I don't trust the frogs. they are up to something.
brjenness
if there are snakes, I assume they will recognize jake's aura.
brjenness
worse for me. I no longer have an excuse to be late to work. sorry, boss. zog dropped a big one.
brjenness
he's testing to see if he wants to switch to two chapters a day. I still say he should start a twitch channel for us to fight over what is going to happen as he types.
brjenness
lol...dotf is going on a month long break in February. zog obviously takes pleasure in torturing us, but for normal authors, I would think a lot might consider dropping the RR/patreon side after seven books or so. but then again, it keeps them writing some...who knows how rarely some authors would write if the weren't at least trying to post 3 times a week.
brjenness
and the frogs breed so quickly that they become a plague after jake unleashes them on the universes
Joshua Kitchen
Iām Guessing the ocean is the exit to the minor world, and if it wasnāt for the system event he would be stuck for awhile.
D
What if the administrator and exalted prima was all about shepherding minor worlds and lost worlds into the 93rd universe. Like make the 93rd universe a collection point for lost peoples in the previous universes
Daniel
Villy slayed a lot of A-grades in B-grade, but yeah he is outclassed. I have a feeling he will do event and come back later maybe after Nevermore.
Daniel
Not before A-grade, there may be an S-grade on Venus.
Tamathon
Why do I think heās going into the ocean to stop the disaster waves?
Nathaniel France
I realy hope the frogs don't end up turning hostile. That said, it would be super cool if Jake returns from this with a āyo so I just added an entire minor world worth of unknown people to the Order, look at me such a good Chosen who totally meant to do that.ā
Jason Donovan
Very cool expansion.
joel southard
Thank you for the chapter
brjenness
I agree. give me an idea and my mind will fill in the rest. don't need every boring detail described. this chapter was fine
beeve
Is there a head oracle at the ancestral village thatās even stronger?
Numbzy
I'm kind of hoping so. That would be fun a way to twist the mini-arc.
Rahsheem Reid

Josie
pretty sure this is the most description we've ever been given about a place. usually everything is so vaguely described it feels like "that location? it's there. and that guy? he uhh.. has eyes." I'm not complaining, as there's many authors who do the opposite and try to paint too much of a picture. this chapter felt like a nice balance between the two
That one, right there.
Iām imagining the frogs from the Netflix anime Kulipari
James Hibbs-Kinsler
With this kind of cliffhanger I thought it was Friday š but im pleasantly surprised we still have 1 more chapter for the week.
DeAndrea H
And finding out that itās part taboo or part of their mating practices like with Scarlet.
ThatGuy
Good thing he has his wings for a quick oh shit get me out of here š
Rewdan
Will Jake give out a blessing or ask Villy to bless an A grade?
RedFaux
For all we know time passes faster in this Minor World. 100 years in here, an hour outside
Raymond Whitehead
Mmm, I doubt blowing up this planet will go well. Always the next one to consider
Rewdan
Poor Jake, how is he going to handle this A Grade? Heās going to have to be on his absolute best behaviour?
Joken
He can project the Vipers aura. That would get the A grade to shiver.
Bjarne Hansen
Are you sure? Maybe I'm dumb, but I think that the first sage, told Jake, that he needed to bring Venus back into the real world .... Venus and Earth, joined.

How does Jake always manage to get himself into interesting situations days before system events?
SinCinnamon
Nice!
VirtSecurity
I can just imagine Jake asking if he can lick the back of some of these frogs.
ABTelford
An A grade. Woohoo! And Jake is on his own and has to act cautiously instead of being able to bluster his way through everything? Awesome! Itās been so long thisāll be great!
GeneticSloth
Tftc!
Drexnaw
yup Jake is def going to that poison ocean and getting in over his head i can feel it
Josie
Unless of course this IS a village for the scaling of frogs. Their scale of a metropolis gonna be scary
Josie
Looks like Jake needs to give Myriad Tongues skill a software update, it's not translating words correctly

Iām really looking forward to this exploration arc after this chapter. It will be interesting to see how Jake will handle this now that he canāt rely on his two mainstays of 1. combat prowess and 2. Chosen/Harbringer status. How exciting!
zran
jake is someone who does not benefit much for having soneone teach him, besides, who can teach him anything regarding the unique side of his profesion?, if anything, he is on a position to teach others now as a B grader

Had a feeling, but wowsers lol. Not even 20 chapters into b grade and jakes gotta deal with a a grade, well not in a fighting sense but you know, disnt get to flex dominating b grade yet.
Cory S.
Descriptions of the frogs make them seem to be based on the Dart frog. Also I am curious if time flows differently on this world than outside it? Like time moves much faster there than outside of it which might explain how their world according to the shaman is 200,000+ years old. When Jake leaves it will be time for him to go to the exalted prima event or something else will happen and Jake is in a life or death situation when all of a sudden a prompt appears telling him itās time to go and to accept a teleport out to the event.
Corvid
My working theory is that the minor world just has a bonkers level of time dilation. Minor world created post system, but time just goes by insanely fast there compared to the outside world.

Jeroen Turkstra
Tyftc Loving this arc so far. Curious how the A grade will handle Jake.
djthomp
I'm loving these frogs, they're just really neat. Natural C grades it seems, with plenty of strong ones past that. I wonder if the Ancestral Village has an S-grade?
Suzanne Pearson
Makes me wonder if that ancestral village frogs originated in the Amazon. If they were full beasts then, they wouldnāt remember their originsā¦. Then with the time dilation, they got a head start, but as they are in the pocket dimension (perhaps a unintentional consequence of the system creating the world wonder) they didnāt do the prima event like the rest of the 93rd universeā¦.. and maybe are considered a part of the world wonderā¦.
Bob Fight
So thereās a A grade just chilling in the system I am almost scared to ask if thereās anything going on with are sun is it suddenly a unique life form
Elephin
I'm guessing that time passes much faster inside of this world compared to outside, which is why the integration clearly did not happen recently here despite the fact that it surely did not have access to the System before the integration. This was also hinted at when Jake remarked on how quickly Villy responded last chapter. The faster time is probably the trait thing that Villy mentioned earlier.
Ramadasa Butler
I wonder if Jake could find a teacher to help progress his Profession. What new materials could he trade for to make new potions maybe even Villy has never seen. He might also be able to get new items i.e. Chestplate, cloak, etc or upgrade his soul bound items - necklace?

The A-grade should be called Darth Binks (or something close to it).

Phoenixdrop
Well then things are getting interesting welp Jake get politicking and also might be a good time to learn the finer differences between monster races and a true enlightened race because these frogs are absolutely sitting on that line and I absolutely want to see Jake give them the final push they need to get there

I like this new schedule. Letās me read the new chapter during lunch.

TFTC :) Suggested edits: "and far ** smaller tent-like structures." i think you missed the word "more" here. "The otherwise toxic *air* seemed to carry an *air* of" repetition. Change the first to "atmosphere" or the second to "buzz" to avoid this. "The village was also *decisively* inhuman." should be "decidedly" " āThe Oracle ** atop the Life Pool" from the context of the next statements you missed the word "dwells" here "Venusian down below was one of the *think* variants, " should be "thin"
NovaZero
Keep in mind, each village is headed by an Oracle.
DeAndrea H
I love this arc. The lore and world building are fantastic. It feels like weāre seeing a different side of Jake. Usually, his curiosity is anchored in his drive to progress but here it feels like heās curious for curiosityās sake. I love the Venusians being too powerful for him to fight and being unaware of the concept of a āChosenā so theyāre not overly deferential beyond him being a guest. Jake has never really had to focus on being tactful and diplomatic. Itās a new and different kind of challenge! It does make me think of all the theories that the Seat of the Exalted Prima will be more of a political challenge and this is preparing Jake for that so it doesnāt feel unrealistic that he can politic intentionally. Canāt wait to see where this goes!
Schneeente
Of course A grade. Really nice world building and I am curious to explore this new world!!
Sloth
Iām pretty sure A-grade is strong enough to be the leader of multiple galaxies in the greater multiverse. This hidden world is probably at least the size of a galaxy cluster I think, though probably larger
Arieh Sochaczevski
Thanks for the chapter!
Biggy smalls
Just how big is this place to support A grades? At least as big as a solar system. Probably a full sized Galaxy.
Fylbrom
Yooo i didn't even think of that, but it would be crazy if he did. Jake exits the Minor world just to leave the rest of the multiverse gobsmacked when they hear the news. Lmao
Sean McClain
Jake cant catch a break. Newly evolved and already outclassed
Fylbrom
Poor Jake. He's gonna have to figure out how to turn down the advances of an A grade frog-queen without letting in on the reason being that his actual GF is a god, something they dont have any understanding of. Our guy might be screwed... and not in the fun way š
Michael
this new arc looks promising! excited to see where it goes
Sol
So Jake juice and tadpoles? And how many levels do you get for upgrading a species to enlightened? Can already tell this gonna be special either in an epic history changing way or a window licking dumb shit gonna happen that he can't escape sort of way šš either way villy gonna be laughing
Nathan Holliday
Of course he just evolved to B-grade and is meeting an A-grade!
John Durrett
tyftc. Lovely walk. :)
tigerfishie
The more we see of the frogs the more I like them, Iām definitely curious about them, though reading a bunch of classical science fiction books for class and then popping online for the latest chapter has been somewhat jarring these past few days šTYFTC!
