Chapter 1080 - Out Of This Universe
🕑 Added 2025-02-21 12:26:53 +0000 UTCIt was evident a lot of people had looked forward to getting out of the universe as fast as possible once it opened up. Jake had rightfully expected a few people to tag along with him, but he had severely underestimated just how many it would be... because he wasn’t sure when his poor little lodge had last been this busy.
The Sword Saint, along with Reika and some of the alchemists from the Noboru clan who’d joined the Order, were naturally there. Then there was Vesperia, Sylphie, Maria, and Carmen, but he also saw a bunch of people he expected to be members of other major factions. All were people Jake didn’t know.
Jake felt mixed emotions seeing all these people in his private space, but at least the ones he didn’t know were waiting outside. He also felt very mixed emotions upon seeing Carmen trying to convince the Sword Saint to take a banana. Sure, Rick had said harvesting bananas was good for the musa, but there was such a thing as asking permission first.
Deciding not to even bother confronting them, Jake flew over, and once he got close enough, used One Step to teleport down and appear on the porch, right beside Carmen, who was holding two bananas, looking to hand out one of them.
“Oh, you’re finally here,” Carmen said with a smile once she saw him, not a hint of shame in her voice. “I reckoned that you could hear the sound of me munching bananas from across the planet, and here you are.”
“There is no correlation between those two things,” Jake said in a deadpan tone, not even bothering as he turned to all the people there. “Quite an entourage... am I right to assume you all want to travel to the Order of the Malefic Viper with me?”
He got a few nods of confirmation as Carmen spoke again. “Traveling with you is the easiest way of getting out of the universe. Once were in the first universe, getting to anywhere else will be a lot simpler.”
“I should be charging for this,” Jake muttered.
“If the Chosen wishes for us to-“ one of the beastkin with a pretty respectable level began to speak as the Sword Saint cut him off.
“He’s joking. For a Chosen to charge paltry amounts to assist his fellow natives of the universe would be unsightly,” he said, Jake not sure if the old man was trying to save Jake’s dignity or just really wanted to move things along.
“I gotta ask... aren’t you needed to do stuff here on Earth? With the World Council and all that?” Jake asked as he looked at the old man.
“No, and if I am, this is a good opportunity for those who rely on me to figure out solutions on their own,” the Sword Saint answered bluntly. Jake had noticed the old man seemed a bit on edge both now and during the meeting earlier, and he had a theory as to why.
“I guess it has gotten difficult finding anything worth fighting on Earth at this point, huh,” Jake said with a sigh.
“An unused blade will turn dull,” the old man merely answered, confirming what Jake thought.
Jake also got the feeling many of the others felt the same. There simply weren’t many things worth fighting left on their planets. If they wanted to find worthy opponents, they would have to either leave their current planets to explore their local star systems or go to another universe.
Exploring something like the solar system would take a long time, and it wasn’t even certain one would find things to fight. Jake guessed that one could find B-grades and stuff on other planets that were less hospitable to life, but the problem was that one couldn’t know for sure.
Meanwhile, if he went to the Order, he would have a massive list of potential hunting grounds with well-defined level ranges of monsters found there. Even if he went to someplace riskier, he would at least know there were opponents to fight. On the other hand, if he stayed, he could be flying within a space worm for several weeks – or some other vehicle for months - just to discover that Pluto not only wasn’t a planet but didn’t even have anything to kill on it.
Speaking of finding a place with things to potentially kill... seeing as Sylphie and the Sword Saint were both there, he wondered where they were planning to go once at the Order. Well, Sylphie probably didn’t have a plan but was just bored on Earth and wanted to tag along with him, but there was a good chance the Sword Saint didn’t have a set plan either.
“Hey, Sylphie, did you have any plans on where to go once we reach the first universe?” he asked the hawk.
“Ree,” she answered, surprising Jake a bit.
“Really? You need to go right away?” he asked.
“Ree.”
“It’s because I plan on going to the Pantheon of Life not that long after arriving at the Order, and I believe you and the Sword Saint have a standing invitation from Dina to visit, so I wondered if you wanted to come along?” Jake asked both the hawk and the old man.
Regarding Sylphie, Jake had entirely misjudged her. She did have a plan once she arrived in the first universe, though she luckily wasn’t in a rush. Stormild had actually contacted Sylphie and told her to go visit some “bird friends” and get to know them. Sylphie wasn’t clear on details, but he was pretty sure Stormild was talking about Sylphie visiting incredibly powerful divine beasts.
Also, he didn’t really care that he asked this question in front of a lot of other people. Villy had said it was good to make his visit public, so having these people spread the word about what happened shouldn’t be a problem—quite the opposite.
“I would assume the Pantheon of Life also has hunting grounds available?” the old man asked after a bit of thinking.
“Duh,” Jake said, shaking his head at the dumb question.
“Visiting the Pantheon of Life does seem like it could be an idea then,” the Sword Saint answered, pretty much confirming he was going.
“Ree,” Sylphie also confirmed her intent to go, meaning that their Nevermore Party would have a little reunion soon... what was left of it anyway.
“Excuse me, Sire, would it be possible to expedite our return?” Vesperia spoke up, spotting an opportunity to jump into the conversation.
Her tone instantly made Jake feel bad about not having waited to have this conversation with Sylphie and the Sword Saint, as he failed to consider that he was making everyone else wait for him to talk. He also recalled how Vesperia had gone through quite an ordeal to return to the Endless Empire the first time she returned, making him feel even worse as she probably wanted to rush back as quickly as possible for safety.
“Oh, of course, let’s get going,” Jake said apologetically before he motioned for everyone to follow him as they headed down to this lab. Once there, they went to the room with the teleportation circle already prepared, and using his connection with the Malefic Viper as his Chosen, Jake began the minor ritual to initiate the teleportation.
“Do hang on, everyone. The process is still a bit crude, and getting pulled through the void doesn’t tend to be the most pleasant of experiences. Especially for any first-timers,” Jake warned them all as he felt the bridge between universes form.
Jake was ready as he braced himself for the journey through the void. He half-expected something to happen, but the seconds passed as he felt completely and utterly disorientated. Then, without further warning, he felt solid ground beneath his feet as his vision returned.
A few of the people around him fell to their knees and started dry-heaving, while Jake and his friends were mostly fine as this wasn’t their first time. Not to say both the Sword Saint and Maria didn’t look a lot more pale now than they had when they left Earth, but neither showed their discomfort outwardly.
Checking out his surroundings, Jake noticed they had teleported elsewhere than usual. Probably for the best, as Jake usually went straight to his own residence, something he wouldn’t have been a fan of with this many tagging along.
The destination this time was instead a large circular chamber with the teleporter in the middle and only one entrance, outside of which Jake saw their welcome party already waiting.
After having given everyone time to get their bearings, a recognizable voice echoed throughout the chamber as the door opened.
“I humbly welcome you all to the Order of the Malefic Viper, especially you, Lord Thayne, and I congratulate you on your victory over the Usurper of Yip of Yore,” the familiar demon spoke as Jake looked over and saw Irin walk in.
The succubus looked much the same as usual, with the only difference being her more conservative outfit. She usually wore quite revealing clothing, while now she looked more like a professional office clerk. He also gave her a quick Identify for good measure and saw she had made great progress.
[Demon – lvl 302]
She hadn’t come alone, either. With her were quite a few other succubi and incubi, and through a quick headcount on both sides of the chamber, Jake quickly realized there was one demon for everyone who had teleported there, minus a couple.
“Thank you,” Jake answered the succubus. “I assume everything’s been taken care of here while I was gone?”
“Naturally, but if you find anything wanting, promptly let me know,” she said with a smile as she walked closer. Jake also couldn’t help but notice how several of the demons around her were higher level, yet it was evident who was in charge of this welcoming party. And damn, did she look like she enjoyed that.
As Jake and Irin briefly spoke, the other demons also approached their respective targets. Jake was a bit confused at first about why they were there, but Irin luckily quickly explained telepathically.
“All of these people are individuals representing different factions, most of them small ones. While they naturally cannot compare to you or those you normally associate with, each of them is considered a genius in their respective fields of alchemy. Of course, their primary reason for being here is to form a stronger connection with the Order of the Malefic Viper while also being natives of not just your universe but your galaxy,” she let him know after instantly recognizing Jake had no idea who they were.
“See, this is why I made you my official liaison,” Jake answered in a thankful tone before speaking out loud to the alchemists. “Let us split up from here. I’m certain you all have a lot to process and go through, but just listen to the people from Humanoid Resources, and it should be fine. Happy onboarding.”
Turning back to Irin, he addressed her once more: “Take me to the gateway. For now, I plan on returning to my residence.”
“Please follow me once you’re ready to go,” Irin said with her usual professionalism before motioning for him to follow.
Jake nodded as he looked at the Sword Saint. “Will you come along, or...?”
“No, I’m sure there are people waiting for you at your residence, and I have no desire to barge in on your reunion. Just contact me once you plan on heading to the Pantheon of Life. In the meantime, I plan on doing some shopping. I’ve run out of high-quality painting supplies,” the old man answered, subtly complaining once more about the lack of proper opponents on Earth as he’d evidently had time to do so much painting he’d run out of materials.
“Alright,” Jake nodded as he turned to Maria and Vesperia, but before he could say anything, the True Royal spoke up.
“I shall leave immediately; I have an escort waiting for me,” Vesperia said in a hurried voice. “I would have loved to spend some more time, but it’s best I return to the Heartlands as soon as possible. Know that you are free to visit anytime, but even if you don’t, I am not planning to stay cooped up there forever..”
“I understand,” Jake nodded before throwing Maria a look.
“I just needed a ride to the universe, and I’ll find my way from here,” the fire archer answered. “See you around, and remember that favor you owe me.”
Jake nodded as the two got a few stares at the mention of an owed favor, as a lot of the people present understood the importance of something like that. Especially the demons part of Humanoid Resources knew just how important contracts and promises were.
“Same. Except for the promise part, but I damn well expect you to come or at least have a really good excuse not to if I ask for a favor,” Carmen said. “And in case you care, I plan on doing some hardcore training back at Valhal’s headquarters, but I may stop by now and then.”
“Alright,” Jake said with a smile. “See you around, and you’re always welcome, but do note that I may be at the Pantheon of Life for a while.”
“Eh, we’re gonna live for who knows how fucking long. I’m sure our schedules will match up eventually,” Carmen shrugged. “Anyhow, see ya.”
With those words, she left along with the Sword Saint and Maria, escorted by a bunch of demons, including an incubus that trailed a good five steps behind Carmen with a nervous look on his face.
Jake didn’t even have to ask Reika and the other alchemists from the Noboru clan as they had already spoken with their respective demons, and all Jake and Reika did was exchange a look as she mouthed thank you before they walked out of the chamber.
That left just Sylphie, who he didn’t even ask if she wanted to go to the residence with him. It was kind of a given as they’d already agreed to go to the Pantheon of Life later, and contrary to the Sword Saint, hawks didn’t need to go shopping for profession supplies.
Following Irin, they soon made it to a gate, and with Jake’s token, he walked through. His vision shifted for only a moment before he appeared in the large mansion alongside Sylphie and Irin who naturally also came along.
However, right as they entered his residence, Jake noticed something was off. Frowning, he released a Pulse of Perception, and outside of the mansion building, things certainly didn’t look the same as usual.
“What the hell happened here?” Jake asked with confusion, Irin quickly picking up on what he was asking.
“Lady Dawnleaf, along with the Grand Elder, have made some minor modifications to give her a personal space to conduct her alchemy without disturbing you or being disturbed herself,” the succubus answered.
“You call this minor?” Jake asked as he quickly went out the front door, making what Meira and Duskleaf had done come into full view.
Jake’s residence was its own separate space, and usually, it was just a decently sized compound with a few buildings and a pretty large lawn he normally used for rituals and stuff. Now, the space had been expanded significantly, the lawn extending many kilometers into the distance.
What’s more, a few kilometers away, a massive, mostly white white tower had appeared, standing at least a kilometer tall. At its top, a glowing white orb sat, and from it, a barrier fell to form a massive transparent bubble all around the tower with a radius of a kilometer or so. The design of the building gave clear mage tower vibes, and Jake couldn’t help but wonder when the hell they’d made it, but more than that, who’d made it.
Something he luckily quickly got an answer to.
“I was told experts from the Altmar Empire visited and assisted in constructing the tower for Lady Dawnleaf. Of course they weren’t allowed to be in your personal space, so Duskleaf had them make it in a separate one he then merged with your residence,” Irin explained.
“Damn, a lot has happened while I was gone, huh,” Jake muttered. “Any other massive news you may as well tell me now so I don’t get surprised later?”
Irin looked in thought for a while before answering. “Well, I’m not sure if it’s massive in your eyes, but I went to the Fourth Hell and met with the Demon Prince.”
“Oh, how is he doing?” Jake asked curiously. “Last I heard, the Devil King there made him his Chosen, so I reckon he’s doing well?”
“He’s doing quite well indeed,” Irin nodded. “In fact, he’s very recently gotten engaged to the daughter of the Devil Queen of the Second Hell in quite a momentous union.”
“That does sound nice,” Jake nodded.
“And he asked me if you’d be interested in being his best man.”

Jake as best man? That just sounds like a diplomatic incident begging to blow up!

That last line tho.

Woooo visit to hell incomming! One of the mostly unspoken potential arcs im looking foward to haha
William WIlson
Right we still got some loose ends to tie up before the next arc
William WIlson
It's Jake's thoughts not Sandy's. Yes it probably only take a few minutes for Sandy to make that jump but as far as Jake knows the only reason Sandy was so fast to Ell’Hakan’s planet was because he had already visited once before making it easier for the worm.
William WIlson
It's actually really well defined the unspecified time before Nevermore is actually like 3 years or so. We have to guess a little before Jake's time dilated training and building the mythical skill but we know that took like 1.5 months and only a few months passed between becoming world leader and that time dilated training. I think of it as 3 years from integration to Nevermore. It was then less than a year till the Nevermore was 3 years which leaves 4 years till the Prima event. Prima event took 10 years to come after becoming world leader. So it's 13 years at the start of the Prima event and another 5 for the event end so it's 18 years post integration and Adam is 18 basically. My bet is that the system slowes down child development because it's not really needed and 18 is really more like 9 years old.
Thomas Grimshaw
along with the meaty parcel of Yip that Villy saved for him!
Thomas Grimshaw
don't need strippers when sucubi are just happy to be naked
Alex
Tom's going to be a noodle incident that never gets explained.
SqrlyGrly
Especially with all the incubi probably also joining
nathan
Alright don’t you guys think it’s about time Zog gives us the story of Tom and Sandy and where he is from haha
John Durrett
Their still hoping for offspring with Jake so she's not likely to be anytime soon.
John Durrett
Between her Runes and killing the false god, I bet her assigned demon is nervous. :)
John Durrett
Maybe not, but it will be one Hell of a bachelors party. ;)
Blaq Jesus
Maybe not, we never always know what Zogarth has in store.
Blaq Jesus
We will probably find out why soon enough with a quick comment made by her or Jake. That's usually how it goes with these kinds of things. So honestly I stopped questioning lol.
Matthew
Ok I’m kinda hazy on how many earth years have happened since the system integration. So from the integration to Jake becoming world leader was like 2.5 years. Then an unspecified time until Nevermore, 3 years at nevermore, some time to prima event, and that lasted 5 years. So what like 11-12 years? So that would put Adam as a preteen?
Phil Ritter
Fair point I’m still thinking in a way too short timeframe and it’s probably not that common to instantly hold the ceremony after the engagement
Biggy smalls
Irin
Biggy smalls
Or maybe the angels are a separate faction we haven’t met yet.
Chloe
Tyftc
Biggy smalls
Yes, all of his kids are close to him. Hopefully this will be a nice bonding moment for them. He and his demon friends could then visit earth. Not like Jake won’t need powerful allies someday. Given that his path will undoubtedly make more enemies.
Biggy smalls
She didn’t modify his home or buildings. All they did was expand the grounds and add a bitchen tower. Don’t see why Jake would care. Plus the tower should be accessible to Jake.
Jennifer Leigh
I think it's the different layers? Go deeper to travel farther/faster?
Psyck0
I could see it the ring being a gem that's a natural treasure sylphi dose it like the feather when jake goes to look at the ring to see what a multiverse matrimony band looks like.
SinCinnamon
A most magnificent hawk
SinCinnamon
Kinda little cousin no?
Biggy smalls
No way. He’d be further ingratiating himself into the hearts and minds of the powerful Hell faction. For all we know the bachelor party will include fighting monsters or something. Jake might be gifted a bunch of great alchemy ingredients. Meet all the gods of hell, visit new hunting grounds, etc. I don’t see how this wouldn’t be a boon to Jake’s path.
SinCinnamon
Irin makes the most sense. I don’t see anyone else going. The political statement would be too much.
Bruce Sheplan
has anyone thought who his +1 would be? it would be hilarious if he brings artemis and they are not awkward AF. i would be a huge flex by jake to bring a god as his +1
Ansordia
Poor Jake getting blasted by universal standards... not earthly ones... well it can't be helped. I wonder if the wedding is even remotley close to a human one...
Grant Griffin
The bit about sandy feels weird since she learned to hop between solar systems in the orange-fucker arc. A trip to pluto shouldn’t take more than a few minutes
Indevan Jones
Not to mention that she stated she got some skills related to Jake that probably taps directly into his records somehow
Travis G
Always exciting to start a new arc, so many possibilities!
Lawrence
Go to the wedding take her as your date and have some fun in hell. Its hell afterall 🤣
Xien
#dyingggggg…. Jake is being social!!! Best man indeed!!!! Very nice
Milos
Please please please please Say yes jake
Dan
If he doesn't say yes, I'm not reading this series anymore. Go to your kinda-son's wedding, Jake.
William WIlson
I wonder when Jake and the Viper will fix Palate. I'm betting that world core fragment turns into something important.
Zachariah Romano
Hijinks ensue
Mongrel
Oh my god yes, demon prince bachelor party side-quest
SqrlyGrly
Imagine throwing a bachelorette party for a succubus.
Alex Salamanca
She probably gets levels being his liason, we know she's a Professional and is being tutored by the Velvet Mistress
brjenness
she has proven herself and has been dealing with much higher level of paperwork. it's not just about the snu snu
Joshua Little
Thanks for the chapter.
Exaiter
Yeeees! Hahahahhaha that sounds so cool
Chris
Yeah, thats probably it, but wow.
Psyck0
Wedding mini arc? Will jake pull a stifler with the wedding ring but instead of a dog a dragon?
MahoganyWood
She’s probably been banging other higher level people or because she’s managing people who realistically should have more power than her due to her connection to Jake
TyranT-Rex
Read a comment, like a comment, reply to comment.
TyranT-Rex
Even better than I book you write yourself, because you don't know what comes next. I think Jake's priority is the visit to ygg. His excuse is that he has the sword saint and sylfie waiting for him.
Chris
How is Irin such a high level (keeping pace with jake) without going to nevermore, without banging jake, or having new universe records? The way she was written before I'd have trouble believing she'd hit lvl 260 by now, let alone 302. Read lvl 302 and was like... what, that doesn't make sense? Irin had been slogging it to C, hadn't thought she be able to reach B before meeting Jake, but here she is now, over 2/3 of the way through C in 10ish real-time years (without Nevermore time dilating 50 years, without being from the new universe, and no sessions with Jake?) Maybe her demigod master slept with her, and a bunch of levels from being Jake's liason at the Order are understandable...but lvl 302? Maybe a few more levels from bossing around higher ranking demons? Or is this just the case of the author needing Irin at a higher level for some reason? aka to let Jake mess with her tier upgrade to B (after multiple nights of snu snu while attending a wedding and using that crystallized demon heart?)
John
And miss the opportunity to throw a demonic bachelor party??? Who’d pas that up?
John
Screw the wedding! I want to hear about the bachelor party.
John
Can you imagine the pressure of throwing a bachelor party for a demon prince???
John
C tier engagements probably last like 10 years…. I assume he wouldn’t want to pass up a demonic bachelor party!
John
Love the chapter!! Possible edit: “He also gave her a good Identify for good measure and saw she had made good progress” Using “good” three times in a short sentence sounds odd. I might suggest: “He also gave her a quick Identify for good measure and saw she had made decent progress” Thanks again for the chapter and the story!
Luke Scheffe
Sounds like a good idea to me.
dash w
Thanks for the chappy
Ibn Nuh
Well he iiisss the best hu”man” anyways
cody kidd
Well Artemis dedicated her entire life and path to The Hunt to the point she became a god about it and then comes along this guy whose bloodline, life, and path all revolve around being a hunter and reaching the apex. They resonate scarily well. Speaking of hunter gods I wonder if Villy will ever introduce Jake to that one beastkin hunter god that left an image in the academy's trial dungeon. That has felt like a missed opportunity for a while.
Joshua
I love the best man thing. That's adorable.
Phil Ritter
Seems like we will be getting a bit of a solo arc soon with everyone having plans on their own. So my guess is Jake will ditch the Wedding and go hunting being trained by Artemis during his down time so he’ll finally upgrade his archery
Zack Leach
Bdsm harness probably
Rewdan
It’s going to be proper cringe. 😬
Rewdan
I wonder who’s his plus 1 Thanks Zogarth

Thanks for the chapter

Absolutely love the feeling of reading a new arc. Can't wait for all the fun!

Ah! Haha! Best man in a demon wedding! One uniting two of the hells so it’s sure to be full of crazy politics. 🤭
Sarianne Roodenburg
Poor Pluto, always getting bullied... have a good weekend all and cya Monday 😊
Admorias
Desolate king is also acceptable
kingofshibainu
What a twist!
Phil Ritter
Eating a world wonder whole would be such a power move especially with all those people still inside it
Phil Ritter
I’m all for Pluto taking revenge and it turning out that Pluto becomes self aware sick of people talking shit about it so it decides to crash into earth
Phil Ritter
I mean I understand the demon since he owes everything that happened to Jake and Jake could also profit from it but since networking isn’t one of his strong suites I doubt he would go willingly
Marcus Evenett
I think it would be interesting for Jake to go be the best man but what are the cultural differences in being a best man at a demon prince/demon princess wedding
Phil Ritter
So far they seem like a really good match and considering his basic bowmanship skills are still lacking compared to close combat he could use an overqualified teacher like her even if they don’t start a deeper relationship immediately
Phil Ritter
Afaik irin was just a Nobody Devil before not expecting to ever reach C-Grade so I don’t expect her to have any background
Phil Ritter
Dunno what universe that is in but it would probably be quite the waste of time. Not that I’m adverse to a fancy hell wedding
Jay tolley
yes if Artemis tagging along to a wedding for a Chosen it would be a prime spot for some levels as a Heretic Chosen.
Indevan Jones
I really want Pluto to end up being a Ice/death affinity planet with a cool dungeon or something. Would be nice
Almer Reyhan
HARBINGER OF PRIMEVAL ORIGIN BABYYY

I’m also excited to catch up with Meira, so excited for this Arc!

Jake as best man to a demon wedding? HELL YEAH! (Pun intended) TFTC!
brjenness
same as a normal tuxedo, but with slightly different coloring and frequently with horns
brjenness
refried king
brjenness
don't forget Artemis will probably be as awkward as jake.
Jennifer Leigh
There are at least two or three more named planet-like objects in our solar system. Orbits get funny out there. Could also change saying depending on where they are. I have no idea what the order by distance is currently.
Posiden 300
We all know he's going to say no....but traveling to hell may be fun and he can get some cool stuff.
Jennifer Leigh
Didn't the HM have feathery wings?
Austin Barton
He seemed genuinely interested maybe he has some instinct to keep in touch with his creations because of his bloodline or something.

But then… what IS a demon tuxedo?!?!!!

In a demon tuxedo.
Nicolas Coons
Yay back in the order! Tyftc!
Daniel Golding
This entire chapter is delightful trolling of Jake. Carmen is the queen of trolling, but Irin with the best man stuff was also excellent.
brjenness
don't think irin is a daughter of the queen.
Jordan H
Agreed, kinda sad though... he may miss out on top quality some demonic alcohol
Arieh Sochaczevski
Unless for political reasons he’s asked to take Lady Dawnleaf… I could see Duskleaf being sneaky like that.
Thenais
So, irin got engaged ?
Phoenixdrop
Well this is looking like it’s going to be a fun arc also I can’t wait for Jake to go say hi to Artemis I mean really Jake wasn’t even trying and he was making that woman fall for him two separate times the first time it was during that mortal tournament thing in nevermore and the second time was when he matched Vladimir in aura strength while making sure she didn’t feel a thing that second time being with her real self so yeah I ship it and can’t wait for Jake to catch up with her in strength and lifespan
Justus Saucedo
I like that new name you came up with
AfroMocha
Mushroom cave, demon wedding, Artemis and possible revival of the Fallen Desolate King.. damn zog, that is alot up in the air and I'm all for it
TKOva
Ah yes... But Dawnleaf wants Mira to shack up with Jack and he's getting her used to being with him a lot.
Sushi
Best man at a big wedding for a guy Jake barely knows? Sounds like a pain that Jake will never want to be involved with.
Daniel Hamilton
Feel like he’d know him better than most s As he’s been inside his soul space
Adam McCarter
Artemis tagging along with Jake to go visit the Hells XD
Dick Ramsey
I kinda want more Origin Birth rituals. Like, every arc gets one. It's always fun when he's running background rituals.
SinCinnamon
Another best bro! And I mess Draskil.
SinCinnamon
Maybe disrespected. It might be a death aspected entity for all we know
Dick Ramsey
He'd probs just take Irin.
SinCinnamon
But she likes to be near him! It’s called parallel play. And Duskleaf be matchmaking.
Mrburns93
Imagine he shows up with Artemis.
SinCinnamon
Irin. Then no need to restrain himself. Although knowing Jake I don’t think he is likely to partake with strangers.
SinCinnamon
Jake doing a bestman speech! His hardest challenge so far!
Lynderyn
Artemis for the date all the way.
Lynderyn
Demon wedding with the best man showing up with a goddess as his +1. Sounds fun.
JJB4345_80_815
Yes, thank you for the chappy Zogarth!
John Looney
Can you really be friends if you’re not willing to share a snack lol
Loststar7
TFTC.
Arieh Sochaczevski
There will be no mushroom madness. Villy probably ate the whole thing.
Arieh Sochaczevski
Also, here’s a tough decision: when going to a wedding where one can expect a quarter of the attendees to be succubi, should he bring a date? If so, which one? It also becomes a political decision.
Polaris
If you’re keeping Pluto and everything like it that acronym needs to be a lot longer
Arieh Sochaczevski
Thanks for the chapter! Given that Lady Dawnleaf has her own residence, it seems a bit much to go that far for her to modify his space for the sake of privacy. She can “live” at Jake’s, and do alchemy in her own. Given how transportation at the Order works it wouldn’t even make a difference.
Max
Yeah like who’s going be he’s date to the wedding.
Lawrence Dillon
Oh jake going to hell sounds fun 😂
Farmingaround
Even here Pluto gets disrespected 😂
A Flashy BR
Fun chapter I'm excited for the new arc!!
John Looney
I am loving all the different directions he can go like mushroom madness Artemis retreat demonic wedding crashing all fun as shit settings
Keldra
Happy for the return of Irin...
Amathew2
I can see the Demon Prince becoming another drinking buddy for Jake, sort of like Draskil.
eatingpitza314
This chapter was Out Of This Universe
joel southard
Nice thank you for the chapter
Signspace
I'm sure the Holy church probably has the whole Angels schtick somewhere in its ranks.
Alex Salamanca
I missed Meira and can't wait to see her again and how much she's grown. I'm imagining how a best man speech would go on Jake's end and how little he actually personally knows about the demon prince
C0bra$
Thank u for the story
Levi
Bird friends

Bwah hahahahaha Jake as a best man!! This is going to be tons of shenanigans 🤣. The second hell is the one Irin is from with all the succubi, so this will be interesting. Lol irin will have to be waving her fellow succubi off with a stick..... Well possible, they are an open bunch. I am looking forward to next week. A bit of catch up with everyone from the order then to the Pantheon of Life.

I honestly had to take a minute to remember who is Demon Prince. But yeah, with this whole Origin merging and whatnot, sure nice of him

Damn, now I want a demon wedding arc. Has there been any mention of angels and heaven or celestials beings? Or is the holy land the current equivalent?
Jordan Mazza
You take a peak in a guys soul once and he wants you to be his best man smh

Tftc! Jake at a Devil's wedding should be a hilarious opportunity for all of us

Just Bring them all, it's not like Jake cares for rules...

Iirc, the life pantheon has a forest that’s a world wonder, with increasingly high-leveled beasts to hunt as you go deeper into the woods.

Also how many levels will irin rack up in the process of this event? Enough to surpass Jake’s lead? I really love this series. It’s like if I had written a book for myself to enjoy.
Jordan Rogers
So Jake has a detour before the pantheon or he just doesn’t get to stay long? (Bets?)

Such a teaser chapter. I need more! TFTC!!!

What’s more, a few kilometers away, a massive, mostly white white tower had appeared, standing at least a kilometer tall. (White is used twice in a row.)

damn that cliffhanger for Friday... tftc

Jake as a best man at a demon's wedding, sounds about right. At a normal human's wedding, no way. A Demon Prince's, hell yeah. Bring a cute succubus with you, maybe kill a few irritating brats and we have a good old fashion Jake style wedding here. Wish Caleb had his wedding after the System, imagine Jake then.

Thanks for the chapter! 😁 I'm loving this!

So happy to be getting all of these updates! Haven’t heard about the Devil prince in a while.

I really hope he goes to the princes wedding and brings Artemis as his plus 1 in her actual body 😂

Oh man, skip the mushroom world wonder. Let's go to the fucking hells! And bring Artemis AND Irin as his plus 1. Because that would be fracking hilarious. TYFTC!

Lots of happenings. I wouldn’t be surprised if the POL have their own mini nevermore for things related to them specifically. Should be a fun 20-50 chapters
fruit dragon
No way I want to see the fighting for who gets to be his plus one

Tftc jake being the best man at a demon wedding sounds like a brilliant side plot in like 80 chapters, though I'm sure he will reject it. Too much socializing is bad for the soul.

Tftc!! Love this What’s more, a few kilometers away, a massive, mostly (white) white tower had appeared, standing Theres one "White" to much.

Oh boy, Jake as the best man at a demonic wedding? I am so down for that cluster fuck. The real question is if that will be before or after the Pantheon of Life arc? Either way, tons of fun stuff in Jake's future.
Shup Idot
Lol Jake as a best man let's go

Demon wedding? That sounds like a good opportunity for hijinks.

I can just hear Jake's complaints

I object to this chapter and will only read the last 80% of it under duress. Your cheap shot at Pluto is a disgrace and beneath the dignity of the story! #MyVeryExcellentMotherJustSentUsNinePIZZAS
