Chapter 1177 - Just Dessert
🕑 Added 2025-07-10 22:47:49 +0000 UTCJake truly understood why Palate of the Malefic Viper increased endurance after finishing the main course, because keeping up a happy face while enduring the emptying of Solana’s entire pot of poisonous mushrooms was no easy feat.
Luckily, he got a little help from Artemis, whom he dragged along into the gates of hell by his side. Solana and Keerla were both done with the mushroom soup after only one bowl, with Keerla needing to down the antitoxin toward the end of hers as she was not feeling super well, so both of them were definitely happy to see Jake and Artemis eat with such gusto.
Unfortunately, Jake still ended up taking the brunt of it, but in the end, the entire bowl of mushroom soup was finished. Seeing how happy Solana was as she went to fill that last bowl of soup nearly made it worth the suffering.
Nearly.
Annoyingly, Artemis didn’t raise a fuss at all but acted like a perfect dinner guest who loved the menu. It was almost infuriating, but Jake couldn’t even tell if she genuinely liked the soup or not. If he didn’t have his own inherent bias that it was a meal from the depths of hell, he would have perhaps even guessed she actually liked it.
Putting down the spoon after the final mouthful, Jake kept up his smile of lies as he spoke more words filled with twisted truths.
“Yep, I can definitely confirm that’s the best mushroom soup I’ve had. Thanks for making it,” Jake said, once more not technically lying. He was grateful that Solana and Keerla had subjected themselves to eating mushroom soup in an attempt to make Jake happy, even if they had done so under false pretenses.
“Yes, it was certainly a dish to remember,” Artemis, the architect of this culinary act of terrorism, added with an innocent smile.
“I’m glad you two liked it so much,” Solana said, seeming a lot calmer now than when they’d eaten the mushroom soup. Jake could only begin to imagine how devastated she would have been if Jake had rejected her hard work, once more confirming to him that his suffering had been worth it.
“I repeat, never doubt the Mistress of the Hunt!” Keerla added happily as she began to clean up the bowls.
Artemis nodded to that statement, making Jake throw her a glance. She looked back at him, all smiles, fully aware of what he’d done. Perhaps this little prank was her way of getting back at Jake for convincing her to do this in the first place, or maybe it was just her being playful. Either way, Jake would get his payback, one way or another.
“I hope it’s fine if we take a little break before the desserts,” Solana said as she walked back into the room and motioned toward the room next to them. “It would be an honor if you would join us in the living room for some snacks and relaxation.”
Again, it seemed a bit rehearsed, but it had definitely gotten more casual than when they’d first gotten there, so that was progress.
“We would be glad to,” Jake said, as he and Artemis followed Keerla to the next room as Solana brought in snacks and different beverages. Sitting down on the comfy sofa, joined by Artemis beside him, all four soon found themselves sitting.
“Lord Thayne, do you know how much longer you plan on staying in the Pantheon of Life?” Solana asked, getting the conversation started, though she quickly seemed to realize her words could be interpreted in a negative way. “Not to say I wish you’d leave! I’m merely curious.”
“I have a few projects here I plan on finishing up, but once that’s done, I’ll return to the Order of the Malefic Viper for a while,” Jake answered, ignoring the panicked apology. “After that, I should really return to my own universe and check on my home galaxy. While I do believe in the people I entrusted running things to, showing up once in a while would probably still be best.”
“Did you really conquer an entire galaxy while only in C-grade?” Keerla asked, looking a little skeptical.
“Eh, just the planets with enlightened species on them,” Jake clarified. “However, it’s pretty understood that of the major multiversal factions, I’m the one who won the battle. I’m fully aware that there definitely still live beings, especially close to the center, that are far too powerful for me and every other native.”
At the center of every galaxy was a massive black hole that all the solar systems revolved around, and the closer one got to this black hole, the greater the mana density tended to grow. It wouldn’t be surprising if A and perhaps even an S-grade or two could be found close to the galaxy’s center, though Jake wasn’t sure if the Milky Way Galaxy was large enough to spawn S-grades.
“I see... yeah, that makes a lot more sense,” Keerla nodded. “I wonder how the new declaration of friendship will impact your galaxy and planet. Seeing as it’s ruled by the Order of the Malefic Viper, it wouldn’t be weird if a lot more people from the Pantheon of Life would start going there.”
“Small clarification,” Jake added. “I’m the one who officially rules it. Not the Order of the Malefic Viper. Sure, they are involved, but it’s them helping me and not me conquering the galaxy for them.”
“And before you ask, no, that’s not mere semantics,” Artemis said, having seen through their two hosts’ thoughts. “The Order of the Malefic Viper is not the only faction with ruling power over the galaxy. Instead, from my understanding, it’s more a council of sorts, involving several influential World Leaders and powerful individuals. The Order’s true role is the powerful backing that ensures no other faction dares to try to take control.”
Solana listened and slowly nodded. “I have a hard time wrapping my mind around how such an arrangement truly works, but I guess things are a lot different with the restrictions still placed upon the universe.”
“Oh, yeah, for sure,” Jake nodded. “It is opening up slowly, though. Speaking of, once it’s opened up to those at your level, you two are free to come for a visit. I would be remissnot to return the hospitality.”
“It would be an honor,” Solana said, slightly bowing her head.
“No expectations or pressure, just an open invitation,” Jake clarified.
“Not going would be silly,” Keerla chuckled. “Especially to your galaxy. The mere fact that we even know so much about your galaxy shows how it’s become a maelstrom of Records.”
“Oh, definitely, which is likely also why so many other factions have been annoying,” Jake chuckled, shaking his head as he ate a small biscuit from the snack table, which immensely helped get the taste of mushroom out of his mouth.
The two looked a little uncomfortable shit-talking other major multiversal factions, which was likely why Solana tried changing the topic a little.
“If it’s not too much to ask, what kind of projects have you been up to during your visit to the Pantheon of Life? Besides hunting, of course,” the dryad asked curiously.
“No, it’s totally fine,” Jake put her worries to rest. “I’ve delved into some of the resources provided by the Pantheon of Life to upgrade some skills, and recently I’ve been working on a big ritual I won’t share the details of. Besides that, these projects are pretty much just all training in preparation for my B-grade evolution.”
“I see,” Solana nodded, seemingly thinking about his answer a lot more than Jake saw any need to.
“Do you have any big goals you want to achieve before evolving?” Keerla asked, leaning forward. “To you, it may sound a little silly, but I want to successfully hunt a B-grade before I evolve. With just Solana and me.”
“That’s a good goal,” Jake said, not joking around at all. Based on what he’d seen from the two, they should be able to do it, even if it would be hard, making it a worthwhile goal.
“And now you’re about to tell me your way loftier one,” Keerla chuckled.
“I want to solo hunt a True Dragon,” Jake said, a confident smile on his lips.
Solana and Keerla both stared at him for a solid two seconds before Keerla started full-on laughing. Solana looked a bit panicked and motioned for Keerla to stop, but the elf was too amused as she kept shaking her head.
“If any other C-grade had told me that with a straight face, I would be sure they were just yanking my chain, but if it’s you... Yeah, that’s definitely a goal worthy of someone like you,” Keerla said encouragingly.
“But it won’t be easy and not a task to be taken lightly,” Artemis added, speaking as both her genuine self and her current role.
“Definitely not,” Jake shook his head. “Which is why a fair number of my preparations are in part to achieve this goal. I’m working on making a Dragonbane poison, and just recently, I even got a sweet upgrade to my weapon that’ll surely help with the hunt.”
Mentioning the bow, Jake subtly threw Artemis a glance to see if talking about it was perhaps a bad idea, but based on her look, it wasn’t a big deal if Jake wanted to flex his World Tree bow.
“Oh? A new bow?” Keerla asked with interest. “Can... can I see it? I would also show you my epic rarity bow, but I’m afraid I would only be embarrassing myself.”
“I’m not a snob when it comes to having good gear,” Jake said with a shrug. In most cases, for someone like Keerla, the difference was negligible in the first place, especially when it came to armor. They wouldn’t be able to as easily “cap out” the capabilities of their equipment, while Jake far more often found himself bottlenecked by his gear.
“But if you want to see it, sure,” Jake said as he waved his hand and summoned his Apex Hunter’s bow. Keerla’s gaze was laser-focused on it from the moment it was summoned, her eyes wide.
“Can... can I touch it?” she asked nervously.
“Sure, but don’t try to infuse energy or anything. It can get a bit fussy if people do that,” Jake warned her.
Keerla nodded as she touched the bow with a single finger. She dragged it along the body of the bow and even leaned forward to smell the wood. With shaky hands, she picked it up and tried to hold it, but she seemed intimidated just from having it in her hands, making her quickly put it down.
The high elf took a deep breath as she kept looking at the bow. “That... isn’t a normal weapon. Not in the slightest.”
“I would hope not,” Jake chuckled, delighted to see his new weapon praised that much. “If it were, it would be an insult to Yggdrasil, Nature’s Attendant, and myself.”
His comment earned him a few more stares as Jake elaborated. “Due to certain circumstances, both of them wanted to do me a favor, which ended up being them helping me with creating this bow. The wood comes half from a bow I already had, granted directly by the system, and the other from Yggdrasil. As for the string, I had the help of Artemis.”
This elaboration only made them stare even more, and Solana even lowered her head a little, seemingly unsure if she should be bowing toward an item that could be categorized as divine in nature. Keerla was a bit of the same as she stared down at her hands that had touched the bow earlier.
After a little while, Solana was the first to get herself together as she lowered her head and bowed. “Thank you for allowing us to see this marvel of creation.”
“You’re overdoing that politeness thing again,” Jake pointed out. Things had just been going so well before, and everyone had really lightened up.
“Cut them some slack,” Artemis said, shaking her head. “It’s your fault for bringing out something like that. How about you show off your Sin weapon next?”
More stares, but at least her interjection had managed to lighten the mood a little bit while giving Jake the chance to put the bow back in his spatial storage. Once it was gone, the two seemed to visibly relax, making Jake realize that perhaps a bit of that divine aura still lingered on the bow, based on how nervous it had made the two.
“Seriously, thanks for letting me see it,” Keerla smiled after a few seconds. “I’m a bowyer by trade, and just seeing something like that made me feel as if I’ve improved my level of craftsmanship. I can almost feel the Records coursing through my Truesoul. Okay, not really, but I like to imagine the thought.”
“No problem,” Jake said, returning her smile as he ate another cookie, giving Solana a look. “These are damn good. Did you bake them yourself?”
He already knew she had been the one to bake them, but he still asked to nicely bring her back into the conversation. It worked wonderfully.
“Huh? Yes, yes I did, and I’m glad Lord Thayne likes them,” the dryad said, having been given the chance to clear her head a little.
“Not as good as the soup, though,” Artemis said with a bright smile.
Jake just smiled in return as he ate another cookie. He would get his revenge someday; he just had to figure out how and when.
Having switched to lighter subjects, the four of them stayed in the living room and talked a while longer. Jake primarily asked questions about how it was living in the Pantheon of Life and about the territory as a whole, while their two dinner hosts asked Jake about some of his exploits and also finally got the whole story about what had happened back in the Hunting Ground.
They were quite surprised, and Keerla even chuckled when Jake mentioned the Rainbowfeather Sovereign refusing to fight Jake. The two were even more surprised when he spoke about the Chimera and how it had been an assassin from the Court of Shadows that tried to take Jake down and even dragged him into the Shadow Realm.
No, Jake did not mention his brief encounter with Umbra or how he’d gotten his cool new cloak.
Artemis didn’t talk a lot but only asked some basic questions here and there. Jake did find some pleasure when Keerla began to ask her about how she’d ended up getting blessed by Artemis and if she’d ever seen the Chosen of their “shared faith.”
Did Jake encourage Keerla a little bit to keep asking? Yes, but sadly Artemis was pretty damn good at the entire roleplay thing, having perfect answers at every turn. She was so good at telling half-truths that technically weren’t lies that it was a little scary.
After Jake had eaten just enough cookies for it not to be considered too impolite, Solana went back to host mode.
“Oh, look at the time! We shouldn’t forget about the desserts,” she said, acting all surprised, even if Jake was fairly confident she’d been hyperaware of everything and had just been waiting for a natural lull in the conversation to bring up the dessert.
“I wouldn’t miss it,” Jake smiled, even if he felt a faint tinge of fear. If Artemis had also given divine guidance regarding the dessert, he was already dreading what was to come.
Solana motioned for them all to stay sitting as she went to the kitchen. Jake forced himself not to look at his sphere and instead dedicated all his energy to hoping that he wasn’t going to be receiving another mushroom dish.
The dryad returned to the living soon after, carrying a large plate. Jake looked over, and to his horror, saw that she had brought a large blue mushroom sticking out of a base made of green moss.
Terror was about to invade Jake’s mind as he realized... Sense hadn’t reacted. Upon a closer look, he also saw that the moss looked slightly off. It was glistening. Moreover, toward the bottom of the base, there were slight signs of the moss... melting.
That’s when Jake realized. It wasn’t actually a blue mushroom sticking out of moss.
It was a goddamn ice cream cake shaped like that.
And it was the best damn dessert he’d ever eaten, with not a trace of actual mushroom anywhere in sight.

Loved the chapter! 😄.
Rachel Clements
TYFTC! Ice cream cake, yum...
Chloe
Yay a Date! It's a Date!!! Yay!!! Tyftc
Prospects
Fr, just wait for the bloodline crash out when Artemis eventually crosses some line in the sand that his bloodline set.
Prospects
Stealth attack and piercing fang are both in need of some major upgrades as well. Stealth attack is strong but unusable after the opening attack and piercing fang is lacking many of the stacking effects that he has for his arrows and variability seeing as it’s his only real melee skill.
Numbzy
Uh no. A few chapters ago they officially started dating. They are an actual item now, with presumably a long term plan of forming some 'bond' that Artemis and Tonken talked about.
Thenais
Do they count as friends with benefits too ?
Shaibene
Its about time jake upgraded his powershot
Lemonsqueezy
Probably wont be for awhile though, since the 93rd universe is only open to C-Grades. Maybe she could have a C-Grade avatar with him instead? Minaga has an avatar on Earth, but he is restricted to the dungeon so I guess that doesn't count.
Lemonsqueezy
I can sing, but only if you want everyone to leave your establishment demanding refunds.
Lemonsqueezy
I don't get the reference, can you explain for me? I would honestly love to know. All I have in my head is the song Dirty Diana by Michael Jackson.

Thank you for the chapter

This was perfect

Dying to see Jake out Artemis to the guests - payback as it were

My ex wife does her best to ruin every day of my life… this book is my happy place.

He released two chapters on Thursday instead.

Ha...Diana...I just got it. Very clever Zog

Did Zog take another Friday off without telling us? Having serious withdrawal issues here…
James Cobb
He won't crash it he might meet him as he walks out the door and go hey godqueen
shaheer karrim
Right guys this is for the fans I'm looking for a singer anyone out there
Malucatent
I love this book. It makes me happy and gives me hope. I think it the only book that consistently leaves a ball of warm feelings and excitement for the next chapter in equal measure. Thank you very much, Zogarth, for this epic Adventure.
Trumangolorian
Honestly would have thought that was nor.al knowledge by now with how much people watch him and research him all the time. The bow is brand new so no one would know yet.
Trumangolorian
Tyftc Zogi. Had to contain myself from reading it early so I had something to look forward to read while on break at work. Artemis is a must keep and I'd love to see those two on a tour of the milky way galaxy. Especially with Jake as host, since he doesn't stick around to really know things. So would be a surprise to him as well as them.
Trumangolorian
I totally agree. She is definitely a keeper. Glad she is able to finally enjoy herself and no question the relationship and it's unusual-ness.
Arieh Sochaczevski
Thanks for the chapter!
NerdyFellow
Showing them the bow is like allowing an amateur artist to deeply examine a Van Gogh or Da Vinci lmao, would probably change their entire perspective on art
Ty Cooper
It is cracking me up that everyone is shocked this dinner date has gone so well. I am liking that it is going so good. I dont want their first real date to go wrong. Well now that I have read it and it is going so well. Don't want to traumatize his new friends either. Wait till the second time for things to go wierd.
Rimantas Podlinevas
ABC’s baby! Always be cliffin!
Lemonsqueezy
I waited until the morning to make sure. I was happy for the chapter post last night, part of me was hoping for a double chapter and to get another one this morning. It has become part of my routine to read a chapter before work in the morning. Good chapter. You left us on a cliff-hanger for the weekend, which I should have expected at this point. I would find it funny if everyone (including myself) was expecting this dinner to go awry and Artemis's identity to be revealed to the two hunters, only for the dinner to go off without a hitch and the two never figure out what happened. A rare and unseen event in Jake's life that has absolutely no shenanigans.
Posiden 300
I love icecream cakr.
Sushi
Somehow things haven’t gone horribly wrong yet. Will they make it through dinner smoothly? Find out next time on DBZ.
SyndaXatrix
Jake doesn't store Eternal Hunger in his soul. It has a representation in his soulspace due to the connection he formed with it during the creation and the same is likely of his new bow.
DDHG
Jake’s greatest mistake. Confessing to Artemis about his hatred of mushrooms. The reason why Artemis is a keeper, she is an adorable bully and jokester.
Fyrtue
Very random and small thing, but I noticed Zog mention he put his bow back into his spacial storage rather than store it within his soul. With NA mentioning how it didn't have a truesoul of it's own and that it would have to rely on Jake's I pictured more of a sim-Jake situation where it would reside in his soul space when it's not being used. Might be a minor overshot or me misunderstanding, but thought I'd mention it.
CT
Ok "flexing the cool bow" also out of the bingo card. I still hope Minaga crashing it :(
Titaniumtac
he’d done-----> she'd done PS we need Sultan to become a vampire to focus on his class (totally not to have him being a blood sucking middle man)
Mohammed Sheekh
Earth has grown bigger, even jake hasn't circled the entire planet yet, plus villy's main planet is the size of galaxies
John Durrett
Tyftc. I was waiting for the shock and awe at the cursed weapon but the conversation had moved on. Probably for the best. :)
John Durrett
Yes those cookies did sound delicious. No I don’t know if he will have a take home bag of them to share with you later. But one can hope!
Kyle Stitt
that's amazing lol the thought is crazy good
Chegs
Does any one know if a planet can increase in size due to the system? Like a reward from a system event to upgrade the planetary core. I feel like earth is too small to handle all these factions and this is only the first wave
IntenseSushi

John
Okay that's it, I definitely want these two to move to Haven once the universe opens up enough for them to go. The Forest around Haven becomes their new regular hunting ground. Nice little Lodge just inside the forest, become friends with Hawkie and Mystie who also hunt in that forest, Rick becomes Solana's Grocer for cooking these lovely meals 😂 As the only people with a direct invite from Jake, they can be the Pantheons embassy to Haven!
Kt-x
Thanks for the chapter!
Kristoffer
Same xD I haven't had issues sleeping, but then the one day I do, a notification pops up about a new chapter. If chapters at 1 am ends up being a thing, it could ruin my sleep schedule permanently 😅
SmokeJam
Well I certainly didn't expect to have a morning read. Thanks!
Peter Smith
If jake doesn't say anything about artemis to them i could see artemis using this as a way to gain a mortals view of the pantheon. Imagine how much more polite people would be if they learned that some of their objects of devotion actively pretend to be mortals in their off time. Who knows which person is a god in disguise.
Nox
That Artemis wouldn't know if a chosen was picked since she was dropped off there though
KollegvomMirgan
For a second i was wondering if an older chapter had been reposted, but thanks for the surprise dessert chapter!

Super fun surprise chapter!
Dittmer
does Artemis have a Chosen??? didn't she offer jake to be her Chosen in the colosseum of mortals?
Thenais
I love most of all the honest full laugh at the mention of his goal before B grade
Ty Cooper
The records these two racked up with this dinner. They got invited to Jake's terf and got to see his new bow. The bowyer getting to hold a branch of Ygg and see the craftsmanship of the bow is going to definitely boost her skills and levels. After the personal invitation it would be more surprising to not have their blessings boosted quite a bit. They will probably earn some diplomatic responsibilities and higher standings in the Pantheon of Life. I am sure they will jump at all the opportunities and next time we hear from them it will be them shaking their heads looking back at that random encounter in the hunting grounds and everything that came of that. Surprised Jake didnt make a joke about him not cooking when they come. Tftc! I've been enjoying the dinner date. Still hoping for a chapter tomorrow. Will this be our lucky week. Sure feels like it getting two in one day.
The Ravenger
Oh yea he is totally going to out Artemis probably after reviling their relationship for the soup and then the cake prank.
Thenais
Oh thx !
Corvid
who wouldn't take any chance they had to humblebrag about a weapon made from a god with the help of two other ones

Please I need more. I'm desperate for the slice of life chapters.

Zog! You spoil us!

TFTC!

Firstly, Jake is not currently in Yggdrasil's divine realm - he visited earlier in the arc, but he's not there anymore. Secondly, Yggdrasil is a bit special because her whole Path is centered around her being "the world tree". She can host worlds in her branches/divine realm because it's part of her Path - that's not the case for the Viper, so he probably can't do the same thing. Thirdly, I can't imagine a situation where Jake could use his soul/divine realm as a hunting ground - those are HIS Records, so he'd effectively be leveling off himself: The System doesn't allow that sort of thing. He's also nigh-omnipotent when he's in his soul, so he couldn't really do a proper hunt - for the same reason why he doesn't want a god from the endless empire following him around protecting him all the time: there'd be no risk.
Doodlenoodle
TFTC!! Question. As Jake is inside Yggdrasil divine realm, can there be dungons in there? I mean there are entire galaxies inside Yggdrasils branches so if said worlds have dungeons why cant for example Villas have dungeons inside his divine realm(the dessolate planet)? If this is so and i understand it correctly that the divine realm of a god can be inside his soul is it then so that Jake can make dungeons inside his endless forest later on as he reach for godhood? «The Primal Forest»
Kenneth Welever
This is definately the kind of earworm that Villy would somehow plant just to make his day better.
Kenneth Welever
I definitely hope so. The other option is patreon glitched again and released his chapter early.
Palmer Evans
Jake couldn’t resist whipping it out smh

Bro I was thinking the same thing. That sense of innate fear he had if it was an actual mushroom cake had me cackling!!
TeeyTeey
he said on discord that he wouldn’t be up to post it later so he posted it tonight

Thanks for the chapter!
Corbin Stewart
I’m convinced we get two today so that we get one heck of a cliffhanger tomorrow. Zog just can’t help himself!
Joshua Little
Thanks for the chapter.

“culinary act of terrorism” 😂😭
Numbzy
Either Zog is setting up the most diabolical weekend cliff or someone fucked up with a second chapter.... Either way, I'm happy for a second chapter!
Clint
Surprise chapter is best chapter.
Clint
Spending time with Jake should definitely help with the instinctual suppression effect.
Andrew K
Since we got through the dinner without Jake's opinion on mushrooms being revealed, I'm guessing/hoping we'll get a follow-up chapter when Keerla and Solana eventually visit Earth. Something like shortly after arriving they just happen to end up in a discussion with someone who casually brings up Jake's hatred of mushrooms, then start freaking out over it (maybe even getting paranoid about possible revenge of some sort).
Ian
WHOA, Zog notifications showing up in the evening? That's gotta be a first for me 🤩 Edit: uhhhh what sort of devious weekend cliff are we getting tomorrow?
Jared Bell
2 in a day? Gee wiz thanks!
Lazy Dragon
Based on his discord announcement, this is Friday's chapter. So we have to wait all the way until Monday for another one lol
Zogarth
Fix stuff
Tessa King
I just started rereading the book today and he just entered the tutorial dungeon with the glowing blue mushrooms and the green moss. How did Artemis know about that unless Jake told her (unlikely with that much detail)? I smell colution.
Lazy Dragon
I've been looking forward to this dinner for so long and I'm so happy with how it's turning out! Not too mention how long we get with them!! I had hoped for a chapter or two, but 2.5+?! I'm ecstatic! Keep up the great work! And happy weekend!
Xander
TFTC :) Suggested edits: "Annoyingly *so*, Artemis didn’t raise" the "so is unnecessary and awkward here. " I would be *amiss* not to return" the correct word is "remiss" meaning lacking care or attention to duty / negligent. "far more *easily* found himself bottlenecked by his gear." repeatition from earlier in the sentence. Perhaps "often" instead? "a *bit* idea, but" should be "bad" "just seeing ** like that made me" missing word "something"
Keion
When’s the raffle put me in the storm 😂😂😂 I’ll eat the cake
DirePants
Nice surprise! Again great peaceful chapter! I feel bad for Jake tho. Having been in the military I know how annoying rank can get sometimes. I mean nothing on this scale but seeing a Private try to hang around a Major is always hilarious. Luckily I was never the revering type so i handled stuff like that in stride. Same with being from LA and seeing famous people 🤷🏾♂️ I wonder if they think Jake is about to do some kind of crazy sacrificial ritual when he didn’t go into details about the one he was working on? They definitely seem like the type to leap to the worst possible scenario considering everything.
Cory S.
What a great bit of SoL content. Thank you.

I could get used to 2 chapters aday 😆

“ntioning the bow, Jake subtly threw Artemis a glance to see if talking about it was perhaps a bit idea, but based on her look, it wasn’t a big deal if Jake wanted to flex his World Tree bow.” -> bad idea
