Reborn as the First Boss, Chapter 93
Chapter 93 – Taking FlightWe set camp and kept watches, because there was no way we’d be able to haul our client’s wagon into the [Spiritual Retreat]. Definitely made me appreciate the magic item more, having to ‘rough it’ for a night. There were no inns between Eshiari and Crystalshield, after all.Fortunately, I had [Magic Touch (Remove Fatigue)] and [Magic Touch (Replenish Stamina)] to...
System Supervillain, Book 13 Epilogue
Epilogue – Elsewhere(Thraxl Secunda, Thraxl System, Gel-Nak Empire)Planet Leader Druxl had never been so glad to be assigned to a hell world. Thraxl Secunda was a hot, miserable rock too close to the system’s primary to be properly habitable. Flows of molten iron and other metals ran openly across the surface, making it impossible for anyone to try and set up normal habitation on the world. No...
The OP Lich is a Returnee, Chapter 199
Chapter 199 – Corpse PreparationLucia did her best to breathe through her mouth as her Mistress led them into one of the ritual chambers beneath the castle. She could smell decay in the air. Not as bad as a body left out in the heat, perhaps, but there was something dead here, that much was certain.A dim orb of light blinked into existence in the middle of the chamber, casting a spotlight effect...
Dark Fate, Chapter 243
Chapter 243 – DebriefOnce again, we were in the conference hall used for military affairs. The same one we’d done the initial after-action report following the pirate fleet’s attack. Then, it had been all pilots and ship crews, practically the entire Navy, in attendance. The ground crews for the fighters were probably the only ones left out.This time, however, was different. The navy was too...
Lewd Dungeon, Chapter 401
Chapter 401 – Arrival(Swamptown)Three months. The journey across the continent of Regandi from Palerre in the Anfelon Confederacy to Nighthold, capital of Knightmarch, the dungeon city-state that had taken over the former Vinastran capital of Aquilis City and all the lands within a day’s ride of Nighthold’s walls, had taken three months. They had not traveled without rest, of course, and the...
Freezing Shadows, Chapter 48
Chapter 48: ElitesBy the time Boomer got down to the antechamber, we had already searched the corpsec, and found the physical key that opened the double doors to the lab complex. This was the big push. There were nine of the guards to worry about. No clue about the researchers, but they looked like mundanes, so I wasn’t too worried. We stacked up on the door, Berserker and I in front, Sexkitten ...
Reborn as the First Boss, Chapter 92
Chapter 92 – Merchant and GoblinsAyen Uriharice was an unusual person, being a Level 32 Merchant / Merchant. Yes, Merchant apparently was both a Class and a Profession, and, yes, apparently you could take both. Most people didn’t do that, though, for obvious reasons, like the lack of any crafting or combat skills. That said, there was some method to the madness, it appeared.I was sitting next ...
System Supervillain, Chapter 156
Chapter 156 – Wrapping UpWe didn’t just up and leave Srusk now that the Russians had taken over. I mean, we could have. There wasn’t anyone in the Russian military or amongst the Russian supers who could have stopped us, after all. However, there were reasons to stick around, at least for a bit.First, Nemesis had his digital hands full, directing the drone workers on the Rhuk to make the adj...
The OP Lich is a Returnee, Chapter 198
Chapter 198 – Custom SpellsAnother day, another chance to instruct my pupils. I set the other students to their training, and took the two arcanists to a warded practice chamber. We were going to work on customizing their spells, which meant actually casting spells. And even I did not wish to suffer the Librarian’s wrath if we began using anything more than a simple light or levitation spell i...
Dark Fate, Chapter 242
Chapter 242 – ReunionIt was a scene that had played out countless times before, in books, in film, and in the real world. Tired warriors returning from combat abroad, stepping of a ship, and seeing the gathered families, friends, and other service members there to honor and greet them upon their return. The only thing different about it was that the returning crews now included men and women of ...

Freezing Shadows, Chapter 47
Chapter 47: Into the Lab“Com check,” I subvocalized into our comm net. One by one, the others responded, with our temporary hire Boomer being the last. “All right. Twilight, what Matrix magic do you have going to get us into the garage?”“Since I gave myself admin access, I’ve been able to quietly look through communications logs. As you know, the labs we’re going to are off the books...
Reborn as the First Boss, Chapter 91
Chapter 91 – QuestsAfter stopping by the Adventurers Guild to get my Betrayal’s Due quest marked complete, as well as register Frostmaw as my tamed companion, our next stop was the Master Alchemist’s shop. I needed to turn in the enchanted vials, after all, and get the reward for the Dragonkin Milking quest. I was interested to see what effect the [Draconic Essence Elixirs] would have.Elora ...
System Supervillain, Chapter 155
Chapter 155 – Admin I left the Russians to their business. They were going to have plenty to do in the coming days, since the planet wouldn’t conquer itself. That was part of the reason I agreed to haul the gates along, after all. Destroying a world was easy, if time consuming. Conquering and colonizing one was hard work, and I had better uses for my time.Instead, I led Hoarfrost and my ladies...
The OP Lich is a Returnee, Chapter 197
Chapter 197 – Combat TrainingToday was the day my apprentices began their combat training. Since we were just beginning, I wasn’t going to teach them weapons, just yet. Eventually, as I’d promised, they would at least obtain proficiency in several weapon types, but they needed a basis to start from. There was no point in jumping to man-made weapons when they hadn’t learned to use the weapo...
Dark Fate, Chapter 241
Chapter 241 – Return(Main Bridge, CRN Mercurial, Sol System)Captain Griboyedov Ivan Tikhonovich breathed as the stitch-sickness finally fell away. Blinking his eyes clear, he called out to the room. “Time?”A half-groggy, half-nauseous voice answered him from the sensor station. “Stitch completed four minutes and thirty-three seconds ago. All ships reporting in, all systems green.”Griboye...
Lewd Dungeon, Book 40 Epilogue
Epilogue – ElsewhereCatalina Zorita was enjoying a day off. Well, another day off. She’d been to Athens earlier in the week to attend ‘The Wedding’, as it was being called in the tabloids. Just that. Everyone knew which wedding people were referring to when they said that. After all, how often could you say that you witnessed the wedding of two gods?She had brought little Lucia along, natu...
Freezing Shadows, Chapter 46
Chapter 46: Carina(Nightelligence Solutions Corporate Headquarters)Shadowgirl took a breath as she parked the stolen scooter in the subterranean employee parking garage. They needed a vehicle that wouldn’t be tied back to them, after all. Once Twilight ripped out any digital traces and spoofed the registration, and Babydoll went over the thing with a tag eraser, to ensure that it wouldn’t be c...
Reborn as the First Boss, Book 10 Prologue
Prologue – Officially UnofficialMainfridus Shadescar was a merchant, as his father had been before him. His grandfather, though, had been born a merchant, heir to the Shadescar Barony in Dascora. If his great-grandfather had been less of a self-righteous prick, then things may have been different.The last Baron Shadescar had been a pious man. Overly pious. To the point where he was an open suppo...
System Supervillain, Chapter 154
Chapter 154 – RussiansAssembling the gate was simple enough, especially with the robot workers doing most of the heavy lifting. Take two pylons, each five meters high, put them eight meters apart, make sure the supports are set up properly, run cables to the control console and the small power core inside. Thankfully, the super-scientists who designed this thing made it so that the portable gate...
The OP Lich is a Returnee, Chapter 196
Chapter 196 – Lesson PlansAfter dinner, I gathered my apprentices together, so that we could go over the results of their first day’s training. The different methods worked better for the groups I’d tasked them to, but they were useful for the others, as well. A Sorcerer did not depend on knowledge or working with the flows of mana, like the Arcanist and Witch, but those methods would help t...

Lewd Dungeon, Chapter 400
Chapter 400 – BeachPicking someplace to do a honeymoon was difficult, for deities. Fortunately, since we could each use the other’s shrines now that we were married, there were plenty of options on where to go. Still, since we’d done the ceremony in Greece, Athena suggested that we take our honeymoon to a city more closely associated with me. And of the places more associated with me, Miami ...
Freezing Shadows, Chapter 45
Have something to do tomorrow, so chapter now.Chapter 45: MeetingSoon enough, Basilisk slithered back into the room, followed a moment later by a drone pushing a cart with what had to be twenty kilos of plastic explosives, along with detonators, several spools of wire, and a trigger device. A quick look said that these were the baseline plastic explosives, with each kilo being roughly equal to a k...
Reborn as the First Boss, Book 9 Epilogue
Epilogue – ElsewhereThe Holy Theocracy of Eclana, where the Righteous Pantheon of the Good Peoples of the World reigned supreme, was always in some sort of unrest. Mortals were weak creatures, and needed a firm hand to guide them upon the proper path, but that weakness also meant that they resented those who would show them the way. Despite the righteous faith that the churches called for in the...

The OP Lich is a Returnee, Chapter 195
Chapter 195 – ArcanistsOf course, when setting my Arcanists to cultivate, I had an appropriate place for them. Namely, my library. Well, one of my libraries. I had conquered half a continent in the other world, and some of the treasures I stole were the contents of every library I captured unburnt. Admittedly, that was fewer than I had hoped for, but there was only so much one could do in a sieg...

Epilogue – Elsewhere(Planet Xids Prime, Xids System, Ouran Huntworlds)Hasluh the Shadowstalker entered the private training hall that only direct kin of the Clan Leader could enter without permission, the guard stepping in after him. This was the Clan Leader’s private sanctuary in the Clan Hall, a place where they could relax their guard, and stop worrying about fending off a rival’s blades....
Lewd Dungeon, Chapter 399
Chapter 399 – ReceptionThe reception hall was not quite full to capacity, but it was definitely close. There was room for eight hundred in this space, as people wandered around and mingled. Athena and I stayed together, as the ‘stars’ of the event, but the other gods and dungeons in the party were spread out through the hall, using this party as a chance to network and make deals. Still, a g...
