In Yggdrasil, Momonga often found himself persecuted and hunted by the other Players, the Human Players at least. After all, as a Heteromorph there were no penalties or negative statuses imposed for killing him or his fellow guild mate, and most N...

Battle for Babylonia: Continuation (258)

The monstrous form of Tiamat paused for a moment after the blow struck her. And for the first time during the entire battle, something that in a human mind might be called a ‘thought’ flickered behind her empty and lost gaze. However, this tho...

Griselda finished surveying the area, then exhaled slowly, not knowing how she should even react to the information she had gathered, let alone compile it into a comprehensive report for her superiors.

Actually, speaking purely from the perspective of conserving energy and time, I could place exactly the same enemies in the newly created demon caves as the Sky Islands. The same demons that poisoned the lives of new Players in the Sky Islands, no...

Battle for Babylonia: Begin (257)

The towering black waves froze in the apex of its ascend, as if it was contemplating its next move. Seeing that it is actually a living thing, that was not beyond the pale. But, following the force of gravity, it finally crashed forward onto the w...

For Momonga the thought that he would become a teacher seemed like the strangest possible occupation. What could he even teach when he hadn’t even finished school himself?! Worse, he barely understood the school he’d found himself enrolled in ...
