Chapter 1201 - Knowledge Gap
🕑 Added 2025-08-14 11:20:18 +0000 UTC“While I cannot commit to a specific timeline, I’ll certainly be visiting soon,” the high elf alchemist said courteously.
“We’ll certainly look forward to when the opportunity arises,” the other high elf responded with a smile. “Now, I shall not hold you up any longer. I understand that the Chosen of the Malefic One will soon be returning to the Order and wouldn’t want to get in the way of anything.”
“You don’t need to worry about that,” Meira shook her head. “I don’t think Lord Thayne would have anything against a delegate from the Altmar Empire paying her respects.
“That’s comforting to know,” the B-grade elf from the Altmar Empire chuckled. “However, I shall stick to my original plan and take my leave.”
Meira nodded, knowing that there was no need to try to convince the other party. All of this was just platitudes, anyway. She still felt it was a little weird, but the etiquette classes she took made it clear that this little game of theater was something one had to participate in once in a while.
The elf soon departed, leaving Meira back alone in her tower that Duskleaf had helped her build within the land technically belonging to Jake. Alone once more, she inspected some of the ongoing experiments she had been working on and was happy to see that things were progressing well.
Duskleaf had taught Meira a lot, and even now, he had left behind an avatar to continue guiding her despite how busy he was at the Pantheon of Life. Of course, Meira did help her Patron a little by being the sponge he could complain to about his projects at the Pantheon while getting constant affirmation that his struggles were indeed all valid and worth complaining about.
Continuing through her tower, she went and found a book she had been looking for. As she walked, she looked out a window toward the buildings in the distance where she used to live. It had been a long time since she’d seen any life there, making her feel a little sad.
It had been a while since Meira had returned from Nevermore, having spent her full fifty years as a C-grade inside. Of course, she hadn’t competed on the Leaderboards, but had just gone with a party primarily from the Altmar Empire.
Needless to say, Meira had been very worried about going in the first place. She’d never been much of a fighter, and while her Patron had helped her train, she still felt green. Luckily, the party she went with knew this, and while they were forced to do the easy first floors anyway, Meria got in plenty of practice. While she wouldn’t say she was a good fighter now, she believed herself to at least be decent… though that was primarily because Meira didn’t actually have to fight most of the time.
She was a healer, through and through. That was at least something she had always been and a Path she herself had chosen. As a healer, she had been able to help her family and friends back in her clan, and the fact that she’d been good at it only made it better.
Her Path as an alchemist had greatly supplemented her healing, especially her specialization in formations. That was something her Patron had discovered early on that she excelled at, and with time, Meira had only further deepened her understanding of formations and the endless possibilities within.
According to her party members, she was a nightmare to her opponents due to her ability to nullify damage, heal injuries, and control the entire battlefield through intricate formations. Sure, offensively, she had little besides a few poisons and regular mana attacks, but that was why she had been in a group, and if she did ever find herself isolated, she had gotten extremely good at fleeing through more than a dozen self-crafted escape treasures.
Shaking her head, Meira brought her book downstairs to the cozy living room and sat down to read. The book was one of those where every page was a formation circle to study and decipher, so it was unsurprising that several days passed with her studying it while only occasionally getting up to make some tea – a blend of her own that increased mental focus and soothed the mind.
As she was reading, she suddenly got a divine message from her Patron that made her perk up. Lord Thayne and the other C-grade friends of his who had gone to the Pantheon of Life were about to return.
Meira couldn’t help but feel nervous as it had been so many years since she had last met Lord Thayne, especially for her. She knew that over fifty years was a long time for someone like her, who felt like her life had only truly begun after she went to the Order of the Malefic Viper as a slave, something that felt like it had truly been an entire lifetime ago.
She wondered how much more powerful her former master had become. If he had also changed or was the same person he’d always been. But perhaps most importantly… how would she feel when she saw him again?
All she could do now was wait… and for some reason, their return trip seemed to last a lot longer than Meria had thought it would, only making the long-awaited reunion more suspenseful.
--
“We need to at least wait for them to wake up,” Villy pointed out. “Would be pretty fucking weird if we popped in with half the group unconscious.”
“Good point,” Jake muttered, not finding any good argument against that one.
They were all currently sitting within a large living room that Jake remembered having visited a few times prior, the first of which had been as a projection of his own soul way back in the Tutorial.
It was a private area of the Malefic Viper, and Jake was honestly a little surprised that Villy had brought everyone there. Then again, where else could he have brought them?
Due to the teleportation vessel being a mess, they couldn’t just appear in the Order while inside of it, as that would have raised a lot of questions. So, making a little pit-stop along the way made a lot of sense, especially when one considered that they had to wait for Sylphie, the King, and Dina to wake up from their Void God-induced slumber. Alright, technically, the slumber was self-imposed as an automatic defense mechanism to protect their own minds, but Jake still blamed Oras for being an incomprehensible eldritch being.
After arriving at the Viper’s private space, Jake and the Sword Saint had found some large beds for the three to sleep things off before the two gods and C-grades made themselves comfortable in the living room. Unsurprisingly, Jake and Villy had been the two who felt the most comfortable chatting away, but the other two did soon get their bearings somewhat.
Seeing as they had the time to chat away, Jake asked something he had been kind of curious about as he looked at the Viper. “Say, do you have any idea what Oras might be thinking?”
“Damn, that question came out of left field,” the Viper chuckled. “But the answer is no. Seeing through the thoughts of a Void God is not something I fancy myself capable of. Sure, I can have theories and guesses, but in the end, his reasoning might be something that simply doesn’t make any logical sense to me. He’s killed gods he’s never even had any interactions with before, seemingly out of nowhere. Yet he’s also helped other gods, once more seemingly out of nowhere. Rarely does he ever provide any meaningful explanations for anything he does... not unless you make some kind of trade for him to share.”
“Okay, not gonna lie, I just imagined being a new god and jovially trying to travel the void, only for a sea of eyes to come out of nowhere and consume me without any cause or reason,” Jake said. “The multiverse should definitely reconsider using the void as a shortcut to teleport places if one can get unlucky like that and run into a random Void God who decides to end one’s existence.”
“Eh, you’re exaggerating,” the Viper waved him off. “I said it’s happened, but only a couple of times. Usually, Void Gods don’t get involved with the rest of the multiverse at all. You saw at Nevermore how limited the number of people they get involved with is.”
“It’s not that surprising that the Void Gods have few followers, is it?” Artemis asked. “They’re all solitary entities after all.”
“True,” the Viper agreed. “Admittedly, I’m also unsure how their method of Blessings works. I know they don’t have levels like ours, so it may take more out of them to bless each person.”
Jake nodded along. “Yeah, but considering the scale of the multiverse, there should still be a fair number of Void God followers out there, right?”
His innocent question made Villy throw him a glance as a thought struck the god. “Say, Jake, how many Void Gods do you know of?”
“Oras and that weird cube thing,” Jake shrugged, not sure where the Viper was going with his question.
“Let me follow up… how many Void Gods do you think there are in total?” the Malefic Viper questioned, now seeming incredibly interested.
Jake felt like it was a trick question, but when he thought more about it, he realized he’d never actually considered it. He knew there were an absolute fuckload of gods out there, so he’d kind of just assumed there were also a lot of Void Gods.
“You say Void Gods are technically Void Dwellers, right?” Jake asked.
“Yeah,” the Viper confirmed.
“And there are, like, countless Void Dwellers?”
“Indeed,” the Viper nodded.
“So… with that logic, there’s bound to be quite a few Void Gods out there, right?” Jake asked, feeling like his logic tracked.
Artemis looked at Jake, confused, and even the Sword Saint had a questioning look.
“Wow… sometimes the gap in your knowledge is astounding,” the Viper laughed, slapping his knee before he turned a bit more serious. “Seven.”
“… seven?”
“There are seven Void Gods,” Villy clarified. “There’s always been seven Void Gods. It’s true they are Void Dwellers who gained sapience, but they are the only seven who’ve ever managed to do so. Additionally, they all did so around the first era with no other Void God having appeared since.”
Jake stared at the Viper as the god continued.
“I don’t know when they actually became Void Gods; all I know is that collectively, the Primordials encountered all seven during the first era, meaning they were all around then or perhaps even before us.”
For a moment, Jake wasn’t sure what to say as he asked something he was fairly certain he’d asked before: “Just how powerful are Void Gods, actually?”
“Strong enough that none of them have ever died,” the Viper shrugged. “And as I told you before, strong enough so that no being in the multiverse believes they can kill one, Primordials included. As the multiverse has grown, so have the Void Gods, making them far more powerful now than they were back in the early eras.”
“Huh,” Jake muttered… yeah, he had definitely believed there were scores of Void Gods out there doing their thing, but it turned out that assumption had been very wrong.
“You really didn’t know?” Artemis asked, staring at Jake.
“No…” Jake said, now feeling a little embarrassed.
“Even I knew,” the Sword Saint said, shaking his head. “I just casually asked Arnold once, and he explained. This was… I wanna say not that long after the Treasure Hunt?”
Jake felt like they all ganged up on him for his ignorance, and the three of them continued to tease him for a while longer. Alas, Jake could only take it on the chin and at least find solace in the fact that it had led to the mood in the room getting a lot more casual.
After not that long, they returned to a fairly more pertinent topic.
“Does the Malefic One believe it best I go directly from here and meet the officials?” Artemis asked, still a bit overly cautious, but not as bad as before.
“No, appear at the pre-prepared teleportation circle alongside the others. Let it be known you are here, and then go meet with the people you actually need to discuss matters with,” the Primordial said.
“I guess the rest of us will just go to my place?” Jake asked.
“Unless you have somewhere else you want to go,” the Viper shrugged. “Dina will also have to act in her official capacity sooner rather than later, though. While the appointment is primarily for appearances, she does have some minor responsibilities, one of which is to be seen once in a while.”
“Ah, true,” Jake nodded as he fell silent for a moment. “Say… could I return to my place alone first? I have a few people from here I need to speak with, and it would probably be best if I do so one-on-one.”
“I don’t care,” Villy said.
“Me neither,” the Sword Saint said. “Not like the Order is lacking in amenities.”
Artemis looked hesitant for a moment, clearly wanting to ask something. The Viper noticed and snickered.
“Yes, he’s probably going to meet with women who have in the past made it extremely clear they want to sleep with him or have slept with him in the past,” the evil snake god said, taking way too much pleasure in what was happening than he should be.
Jake glared daggers at the god as Artemis looked to Jake.
“I just want to clear up a few things with one person more than any other,” Jake said, shaking his head. “I guess Meira is there, right?”
The Viper nodded, Artemis also realizing what he was getting at. Jake hadn’t hidden anything from Artemis, so she knew about his and Meira’s history. The two had even talked about it a little, and Jake knew that it wouldn’t be fair to the elf if he didn’t at least have a proper conversation with her.
Having reflected on his feelings, Jake was a lot clearer now than ever when it came to his own emotions regarding Meira. From the beginning, her existence had been forced on Jake, and he had just tried to make the best out of a bad situation. The elf had, in truth, frustrated Jake to no end in the beginning with how lacking in agency she was.
It was stubbornness and a sense of responsibility that made Jake push so hard for Meira to break through her mental walls and become her own person. In many ways, Jake had felt bad for her, but he also couldn’t deny that she did evoke some other feelings.
Meira was by all accounts objectively beautiful, and it wasn’t weird that she invoked an innate desire to protect. She had been defenseless and needed his help, which had made Jake naturally inclined to provide it.
Afterwards, when she began to make progress, Jake felt proud of her. However, that was about where his emotional involvement ended. He wanted to see Meira succeed and do well in life, but that didn’t mean there was more to it.
Also, no matter what happened, Jake felt there would always be some innate power imbalance between them and that any emotions Meira had wouldn’t be genuine. It was all just so messy, and Jake believed now was high time to unravel that mess and have a proper sitdown with Meira. With how much she had grown, he hoped that now he could have a conversation between two adults who were at least somewhat equal.
Only after that conversation with Meira did Jake feel like he could have a follow-up talk with Artemis. Jake had to admit that with Artemis in the picture, things in that realm of his life felt a lot more complicated, but he didn’t have regrets and would just have to deal with it.
The Sword Saint clearly noticed Jake in thought as he sent a telepathic message. “If you ever need any advice, feel free to consult. However, allow me to offer one small tip… don’t overcomplicate things. And by that, I mean there’s nothing more complicated than having to navigate relationships with too many people involved.”
Jake glanced at the old man and couldn’t help but joke: “What, are you suggesting I shouldn’t live the fantasy dream of having a personal harem of wives?”
“It’s indeed a fantasy, and the dream quickly becomes a nightmare,” the expert in the matter said. “The only types of partners who are willing to be part of such an arrangement likely aren’t the ones you wish to get truly serious with. I interpret that you desire to be serious with the Godqueen, and if you do, you should put all your efforts into it. It’s the simplest and easiest to navigate.”
“So, no harem?” Jake joked back.
“Not saying you can’t try to have one, just that I genuinely believe you would find the experience absolutely miserable, and I predict it won’t end well for you, judging by your taste in women. I myself have decided that I’ve had enough significant relationships for one lifetime. Sure, I may change my mind one day, but for now, I shall remain untethered and unbound,” the Sword Saint said, getting the last words in.
Jake nodded, taking the advice to heart. He did feel a little awkward having this kind of conversation, which is why he resorted to joking. Luckily, he was saved from delving into the topic further when there was movement in the next room, as the sleeping beauties were finally about to wake up.

The void is like Europeans view of the US. They know about the 7 void gods that get all the news coverage, but have no idea about the millions of void gods just going about their day. The flyover void gods hidden away grilling and drinking beer bitching about the crazy shit the 7 famous void gods are doing.
Daryl
I honestly think Meira is mature enough at this point that Jake's new relationship won't phase her one bit. I won't be surprised if she's no longer interested in him, but I also won't be surprised if she's just undeterred by the godqueen.
Seen Death
Oras definitely benefitted from jake, juicing that perception orb But i dont think oras has an issue interacting with the material plane... id actually argue the void is exactly where he prefers to be.. and is why hes always there No need to go to the non-void when he can accomplish his goals in his own domain Like you though, im extremely curious what sorts of benefits he receives from jake
Seen Death
While i always encourage people making creative guesses/suggestions, im noticing one kind of critical aspect of that. The system is basically a learning AI, it doesnt know how to make new products, it seems to basically just see what happens with evolution in extremely varied environments. To our knowledge so far, bloodlines are completely outside of system infulence, once they are created they can basically be transferred (like how villy got the first sages) But i think if it was to have "created something similar to jakes bloodline" it would have been a blatant new race with those traits, or skills and not a bloodline. I could very well be wrong, if we compared what the system controls to a game, it would be like giving a random player (jake) moderator priviledges... I think the system tries to be as balanced as possible, and that would be too unbalanced for its AI reasoning to gamble on. While i find it also extremely unlikely... it would still have a higher chance that someone/something went outside/around the system to potentially indirectly cause jake to get his bloodline... but i cant think of a entertaining enough reason why that would have been... unless it was jake himself? But that would imply jake was able to become incredibly powerful to do so without his bloodline in the first place: when he was destined to die during his first fight in the system as an F grade Edit: i guess the list of people who would benefit from jakes bloodline... would basically be everything/everyone so that doesnt really narrow down the list.. even unique lifeforms could find use in objects he juices, even if he couldnt effect them directly. ... Oras thinks so highly of jake that he actually turned down a favour from the viper to deal directly with jake instead... Theres way too much speculation haha
Michael Fannon
Wild thought: there are only 7 void gods that have interacted with beings outside the void. In truth, there could be endless void gods but they simply don't care about things beyond the void.
Seen Death
I would really enjoy to see how jake could handle void dwellers in the future, but my personal guess is the void gods actually are critical to the multiverse in some baffling way I doubt they all have the same goals, but they seem to atleast all think its not worthwhile to fight eachother for whatever reason Im very glad we got the info that there has only ever been 7 void gods though Neat implications The multiverse has been expanding, but has the void? Every era it gets harder and harder for regular gods to ascend, if the void doesnt expand that could mean there is incredibly limited resources (inside nothing, as the name implies lol) Id imagine the void gods have an extreme monopoly on its resources, which cause the void dwellers to basically be the void variant of elementals (mindless groupings of affinities) Monopolies that could potentially be entire Laws, like how extremely specialized into perception Oras is

I don't think of her as getting kicked to the side. Only re-enforcing that Jakes an equity in friendship and supports her development as having full agency. That does not mean or imply that he is open to romantic feelings for her or from her. He is more like a godfather.
Shane
Love this series by the way But most of all I like the fact that it has unlimited potential for continuing as Jake still has many grades to get through. I often wonder if the system he is in is the only one as if there are other systems whether they will eventually have events where systems clash
McMuffin
This chapter made me believe that this mystery enemy is an unknown (to the greater multiverse) void god. Oras helping Jake preserved the only hope (Jake) to stop the threat, while also guaranteeing Jake’s help in the future with the future threat
John
I really don’t wish Meria to get crushed like she keeps getting kicked down when it comes to the Jake and other girls department. Plus why keep her around for so long through so many books just to kick her to the side
Matt
So, the seed is planted. Jake now has it in the back of his mind that he's going to kill a void god.
Anonymous
Wait. Scp 001: Oras the all seeing.
Corvid
Would be kinda funny to see Scallie go full yandere but I ship her and draskil
TRando
Just got all caught up! I’m a huge fan of your work and look forward to everything that’s to come! Loving the character progression and world building! This is by far my favorite fantasy series. Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you and try to express my excitement to see Jake reach godhood and beyond! Thank you!
Justin
I mean duskleaf told villy that if meira wants him she'll have to fight for it.
RnR_ RnR
You know what. I hope we are all wrong. She takes the news in stride and realizes the 50 years in evermore were enough to get over her puppy love to the first guy that was kinda nice to her. That would be fantastic. But we will see. artemis is the right choice. Personally the "notice me senpai" character is the worst. Meira can just be a badass healer. Miranda can just be a badass leader. The two hunters can just be two badass friends. They did great with Dina now lets see some character development for our favorite elf maid! Scarlett might be a lost cause...
Joshua Little
Thanks for the chapter.
Corvid
you just wanted to use the phrase "a baker's half dozen" didnt you? I'm on to you... and I like the cut of your jib
Corvid
I mean panic would be a valid response when a metal pineapple crashes in from nowhere containing a primordial, a godqueen, a chosen, two divine blessing holders from primordials, and a Dina
Corvid
lmao yeah, just because Jake exists he's relegated to Vegeta status, but he would definitely qualify as MC material in another series
Corvid
I kinda wanna try and go back to find all those villy/duskleaf bet scenes and tally up which one is ahead
Corvid
Yeah I think it's like a condensed records version of one of his eyes. Which evokes the image of it just being like a toenail clipping for oras. He gave one to the nice mortal, who managed to turn it into an entire foot and gave it back, so he gave him another
Bryandbc01
I’ll probably post this in the discord next, but my theory and idea is Jake was created by the system specifically his bloodline to kind of be a caretaker of the Multiverse. I assume that he will be able to kill or destroy anything after enough eras. But then he also has the ability to restore/make anew anything he kills or destroys with the primeval energy. I assume that his bloodline is divine tier. I also hope that maybe not in this era, but the next one another divine tier bloodline is created and is as strong and similar to Jake’s . But the opposite so this one is kind of like a builder bloodline. It can create new objects, creatures, elements, or affinities never seen before. With its own version of Jake juice. The person could have 100% affinity to all elements. It has transcendent level will power allowing to create and remake anything. Including the bloodline users own body to achieve anything . When this person becomes a God, I bet it will create many variants of every species. A lot of possibilities with this one it can make completely new bloodlines, attach additional bloodlines to itself. probably create dozens of transcendent level skills like the first sage, ect… Let me know what you guys think.
Corvid
I'll toss a fun theory out. Maybe Oras wants Jake to help him integrate properly with the non-void or something. Sure he's all seeing, but he's of the void. Imagine the things he could see if he wasn't stuck in the cracks between reality
Corvid
You say exciting, but what you probably mean is utterly terrifying. "That's right folks, you've heard of C'thulu, and you've heard of the Shoggoth, but we have something new and exciting for you today! Let me introduce to you the braaaand new horror spawned from the depths of un-reality, Voidy! This bad boy can fit so many unholy nightmares in it's endless eldritch maws!"
Jason
Random (fairly powerful) void dweller
NovaZero
I'd think it has more to do with how the Sword Saint kept it casual with the Vampire Godqueen
NovaZero
It was the Myconids all along! Jake tells Villy that he knew they were evil! Villy says duh?
Georgia Guy-Williams
Well he's already told Artemis about them... I wouldn't be surprised if she gets some followers to secretly smack them down
Anthony Smith
You're projecting human sensibilities. I highly doubt it.
Gabe Stankiewicz
You know, speaking of Artemis and Jake being together, I had a thought. How about a chapter or two where Jake randomly meets Madeline and Andy, who both somehow survived until now, and they speak to him. But, with Artemis there. She asks him telepathically “are you okay?” and Jake tells her back what happened before the system and she flares her aura, suppressing both of them FULLY. Down to their knees. And then, tell them in no uncertain terms, that SHE is Jake’s girlfriend. She is his lover and his partner. And that they mean nothing at all and never will. I mean god damn that would be something amazing wouldn’t it?
Thenais
Meira doing basic instinct leg crossing :o
Thenais
wherever he pass, new gods appear ...
PWeygandt
How many Transcendent abilities did the First Sage use in that flashback? I wonder if the use of those abilities could be tied to the Void Gods
brjenness
theory of the day: Meira's team from nevermore are sent to mycotic depths to gather resources and they invite meira along. they disappear. Jake goes to find them and fights a mushroom dragon and we get another tiny piece of info about the mystery faction.
brjenness
hive mind of the 94th!!! join my cult of believers. you would be our second member.
brjenness
a lot of meira's feelings were from her instinct to find safety and power.
Stevean Bozek
The old mans wisdom is worth listening to. One woman is enough to drive most men to an early grave. A full blown harem? Fun fantasy, nightmare in reality.
Dan
Following up on my theory that Oras knew about Jake for a long time, maybe the First Sage had something to do with these 7 void dwellers becoming gods? Also, I can't remember if the void dweller the First Sage killed was a god or not, but I firmly believe he could have absolutely killed a void god nearly effortlessly.
MrEM4N
Aww, I hope this conversation and the way Oras clutched that little cube means Oras is going to be a mommy/daddy. How exciting for an 8th Void God to be sired by Jake and fostered by Oras
Ty Cooper
Man tomorrow's cliffhanger is going to be awkward.
Robert Warner
Yes, I can sincerely echo this statement! Good job Zog!
Sarianne
That would be so funny 🥰
s1ntec
Irin is at best a casual fling not truly part of a harem and I doubt that is gonna happen. Also she seems to level plenty just by being Jakes liaison given that she is in the 300s now and was like 220 after their first "encounter"
Biggy smalls
I wonder if Jake juicing a nice void Dweller would help it become the 8th Void God? Allow it to find itself and join their ranks? Maybe that’s what Oras wants Jake juice for? Cause I’d imagine the void gods are a bit lonely being the only ones for 93 eras?
Naotsugu97
If I could give endless likes to a chapter, it would be this one. So many mouth breathing, parent basement dwelling, closet incels just screamed in horror at the very thought of a beautiful blond elf who gives off a vulnerable vibe getting passed over! And NOT trying for a harem?! THE INSANITY!!!!!! Also, thankfully, our MC avoids the other extreme of brooding loneliness while solitarily striving for the heavens! 100% appreciative of Zogarth!
Daniel Golding
I demand a "dear Sword Saint" relationship advice column for the Order newsletter.
Devlin
So that Void treasure is totally one of his Eyes, right? I may be slow on the uptake here though. Oris got one super powered eye back and gave him a normal one in return. I was hoping they would talk more about empowering the treasure with JJ but alas it was a Meria entry.
K R
Is Oras collecting ingredients for his own ritual?
Skarpi
I'm going to call it. The mysterious organisation that targeting Jake is definitely void good related!!

Thank you for the

I guess you do you
dithering
Tbh Jake getting into a relationship with Artemis is really weird and cringe and is enough to get me to finally drop the series peace out
Cody K
I can imagine how awkward it would be for someone you basically view as a little sister to have romantic feelings for you. Especially when ever encouragement you give them to get stronger and progress just deepens their romantic interest in you.
Jason Hardman
I'm guessing they embody something more primordial to the universe, like stats although I've not tried to map that idea out. Not sure there's a way to make it fit.
Drew G
Gracias?
Flydogfly55
This my theory is that their 13 Primordials and 7 void gods but one primordial is forgot and probably older then villy... that makes more sense to me have 20 Ridiculously overpower gods equivalent
Thenais
normal void dweller
Thenais
There is still hope for irin. sword saint speech is about multipe wives, not freebies. Jake is just helping her cultivate, nothing untoward.

With the void God count I'm getting 7 dealt sins vibes

I thought they First sage killed a void god in one of the visions he showed Jake. Or was that only a normal void dweller i am not Sure anymore.
levon
I believe the void gods are also somehow connected to the sage. And they need access to primal energy or something to grow. I also believe the entire system is set up as preparation for an external enemy, maybe something like universe 100. Which is filled with absolute monsters. And the void gods are maybe beings that had to flee it. And the system is set up by someone else who fled. And the promise with the void gods is something that is connected to why the system was created in the first place.
NovaZero
Pfffft. Nah, Meira just wants Jake for his body. Also she can smack talk about how his alchemy is all novel and that he lacks imagination with it.
BumAssBumAss
I feel like irin would try to push for a harem. Since her path is basically reliant on Jake, Jake being in a relationship with Artemis needs to be open for her to progress.
Thenais
wanna bet he is gonna use it like a periscope, while he stays inside the void ?
Beckendwarf
Somehow, it makes sense that there are only 7 Void Gods. As for what I think the whole eye situation was about last chapter… my only theory is that Oras wants to, somehow, join the system and become able to freely explore the multiverse
Mikesch
You just need to start predicting Fridaycliffs. Then you can start your weekend with the warm, cozy feeling you get after saying: I knew it!

I enjoyed this chapter. I like Villys teasing as always. And the old man wisdom at the end was great. 😎

We’re going to get a cutscene where Jake is weaving through a battlefield of woman while Villy is slapping Duskleafs back saying“pay up you lost another bet”

Just your friendly reminder that the real MC of the story is the sword saint lol

I have figured out perfectly what character I would be in zog's universe. I would be an eyeless Ora's with the minaga like ability to create clones. However, the clones only ability would be to stand on street corners and shout at strangers about my current theories of what is going on in the universe. Those of you doubting the Malefic One and think he is not the being he once was, let my morning be a tale of caution. I was a couple paragraphs into the chapter. I knew today was finally the day. My genius would be recognized. A prediction of mine would finally come true. A knock at my door. A quick fantasy of a cease and desist letter from the malefic author requesting that I stop releasing spoilers of what is to about to happen in his story delivered by four gentlemen in black suits weilding baseball bats. Redneck remake of home alone and some quick landscaping in the woods out back to dispose of evidence. Four thugs sent stumbling down the road suitless in shock over the horrors they had seen. Arriving at my door to discover it was only the UPS guy. Quickly getting back to my studying of the daily malefic briefings and making my divinations of the future of the zoggyverse, I discover that no. My dreams had not come true. I had not finally predicted something correctly. The altmer faction delegates were not going to be present when Jake and company returned. Malefic author 1,234,987 Brent 0. Do not fear for I know in my heart that someday I will predict something correctly.

Your asking the important questions here. Either best friends or they are so similar that they can't get along

I wonder how good of friends Dina and meira will be?

Thanks for the chapter!

Am I the only one think Oras was thanking Jake for sharing the Jake juice thus helping to create Void god number 8? That or giving oras the ability to get rid of a pesky void god that’s been annoying him
Rich Varos
When Jake mentioned he had to say something to Meira, “One More Light” by Linkin Park started playing in my head (imagining from Meira’s POV)… :(
Carl Never
We finally made it home to meira. I am so ready to see what we have missed about her. Was kinda hopping villy would just crash the pod into the yard and interrupt her meeting. Gods jump out and meira stands tall while the b grade pannics
Chegs
I can see her declare war to Artemis but in her own shy trying to be brave way
Michael
so now we know the reason Viper won the bet with Aeon is because SS doesn't want to get into a serious relationship..
MrCynical
Jake absolutely will not procreate before he reaches his actual race grade. And I think I remember that Jake intuits that won't happen at B grade. And Jake and Miranda will never happen. Miranda literally recoiling and shuddering when asked by Artemis was a clue. I also can't see Jake ever getting serious with a human when he can't help feeling innately superior to them given his power imbalance line. That's also what this chapter made clear regarding his thoughts towards Meira. The only one who still might ever sleep with Jake is Irin because it's literally her path and Jake knows he's responsible for hers possibly changing towards him.
David Hall
Meira is reverent to duskleaf as a teacher. I doubt the she'd take the heretic option if it even showed
David Hall
Its his private spot in the order. I think book 2 is when we find out through Veridia that jake soul projected there
David Hall
I see this going one of three ways. Either Jake shoots her down and Meira gives a sad "I'll love you no matter what" reply, which I find the least likely. She manages to take jake of the pedestal and is truly over him( I give this one the best odds) ,or somehow masters the guts to say, "I likes ya, and I wants ya. I don't care about the God Queen wife imma keep working till there's a chance". I'm hopeful for the last one mainly to show progress but Mr. author man might want to settle the relationships before the next arc goes into full swing
Loststar7
Unlikely as in end of the last chapter Oras absorbed that eye into itself the eye is probably just a very nice addition to its extensive collection.

Sex isn’t the only way Irin gains levels. Now she will be the personal Attendent to Jake and the pantheon of life I see her gaining quite a bit.

Shes obviously not ok with it..she gets very defensive when other girls are mentioned..she will do her best not to show it though

Everyone knows there are only a baker’s half dozen of void gods
Lynderyn
I believe the sword saint is mistaken. It is not up to Jake if he officially has a harem, but Artemis and the other women if they want to form a harem for Jake. I believe Artemis made it clear she was fine with Jake seeing people on the side, so if people want to be more than on the side they should work things out with Artemis and tell Jake the results.
Thenais
the let down is gonna be glorious. /popcorn
Mick Gormley
Any chance Oras could use the Vision of Oras that’s infused with JJ to create the 8th Void God?
WhiteLeeopard
Is the room inside the divine realm of the Viper or just somewhere in the order? Villy is recently saying a lot of names, quite surprising. Jasper, Artemis, now Dina
Seiryus
Nah, she also gets a lot from doing business in his name. Just not... that kind of business... probably
Zach138
I was guessing 42 void gods.
Bocsánat
Poor Irin is getting stuck at C-grade forever.
Xander
I feel this is setup for Meira saying shes over her crush and is marrying a prince of the altmar empire. Atleast I hope it is cuz if shes still pining after jake she really hasnt progressed at all in 60 years of learning training and fighting without Jake? I never wanted Jake to get with Meira it would be far too icky since she was basically a naive child when they met. First impression last and though shes grown into a competent and accomplished woman, she should have grown past her infactuation by now. Though 3-somes with irin and arty are a different matter
Dave
Interesting point
Daniel Everest
Could Miera be close to being offered the path of the Heretic Chosen on her next rank up?
Aldrin
I hope Meira suprises him and holds her ground. I like Artemis but feel like that relationship was very sudden. I was hoping Jake would try dating some of the other girls around his age and grade. Get some life experience do some growing. The relationship blinders for heavy commitment with Artemis felt awkward. Im not opposed but I feel like jake needed to experience life a bit more. Not pushing for a harem couldn't care less but some character growth as jake bumbles his way through a relationship would have been nice to see.
NiceTryMate
When Jake asked the first Sage for an example of how he fought, he was shown a battle in the void. That makes me wonder what the hell the first sage’s business in the void was. Was he experimenting with void dwellers? Giving them sapience perhaps?
Chegs
Meira sitting across from Jake batting her eyelashes slowly a sweet scent coming from her smooth skin, hair done up luxuriously and a strong C grade aura reaching Jakes senses Jake: Fuck
Luboš Hemala
Poor Meira :-(

Chapter 449: Oras - Answer: Void Dwellers "Vilastromoz had to admit he felt angry. So far, he had predicted most things, and those he had failed to predict, he had at least had a sense would happen, or they had led to positive outcomes above expectations. However, someone like Oras was not predictable. VIlastromoz did not understand the Void God like he understood his fellow Primordials. Something that annoyed him severely. Hopefully, the deaths of the approaching Void Dwellers would quell that anger just a little bit, also giving him a chance to get a good stretch in."

Dont worry, secret agent Duskleaf will be there to provide solutions and motivation.

What if the Void is the 0th universe? All good numbering systems start from 0 after all.
Cyranosaurus
What did Vilastromas kill in the void back in the day when Jake first met Oras? I thought he killed a bunch of void gods to let off steam?

TFTC :) Does it count as a typo that your post from yesterday on the discord said that "chapter 1120" was available? :D (hey no fair editing it while i was typing though now todays says 1121) Suggested edits: "than *Meria* had thought it would" should be "Meira" "This was… I *wanna* say not that long after the Treasure Hunt?" this does not sound like SS. Should be "would" instead "they returned to a *fairly more* pertinent topic." awkward phrasing. either/or not both.
Devillelouch
I wonder if Meira will be a foil of Miranda or Irin. I felt Irin but this chapter made me question that. We have some interesting character development chapters coming up. I cant see Meira giving up and with Duskleaf's help I can see them succeeding. Just my predictions for B/A Grade: Artemis - Divine Partner/ Carmen, Meira, Irin, and Aisha as casual partners. Miranda is a wildcard but I do not see it in B grade. This is based on the Jake has a kid with Artemis during B-grade. Thank you for the chapter.

I’m sure Arty said he could still see Erin and Carman 🧐
Ben Cox
I'm a little shocked to see jake and meira about to have an adult conversation about their relationship, feels like it was only yesterday that Jake had try and indiviualise a terrified elf slave and I'm excited to see how it plays out now that they've both made some progress on their paths. Tyftc
Kyle Stitt
lol its funny that he cant take her word about flings, but in the same aspect I too feel like any man that willingly puts more women is their life is either stronger than me or just not in the right mind lol ive been married for 13 years now and couldn't imagine trying to navigate the complex emotions of more than one partner and feel like I wouldn't be giving them the attention and dedication deserved lol

Villy is ruthless and Jake is such an easy target 😂😂

Jake's met two void gods already, and had no reason to really research about them. I don't blame him for think there was more, I would've too

Tftc. "Yet he’s also others he’s helped other gods, once more seemingly out of nowhere." Felt like I was looking at Oras trying to decipher this sentence.

He’s killed gods he’s never even had any interactions with before, seemingly out of nowhere. Yet he’s also others he’s helped other gods, once more seemingly out of nowhere. Found a Whoopsie.
