Freedom
By far, the King of the Forest was the strongest enemy Jake had ever faced, yet he had won in the end. It’d been a hard fight, sure, but he always kept his head cool to look for a way to victory. A mindset he had kept from then to now.He’d thought the King would be his most significant challenge for a good while… until he met it.It was more insidious than any enemy he could ever imagine. Its cruelty and evil instincts were overflowing with every one of its actions.Jake had been practicing his flying once more after his round of meditation. Practicing gliding around and not falling down. Until suddenly, he sensed it in his sphere. A figure had invaded it and was fast making its way towards him.Faster than anything he had encountered since the King. Even quicker than the mantis. He was prepared for an attack, but it never came. Instead, the figure appeared right beside him, where he saw its form clearly.It looked like an ordinary hawk, but Identify made it clear it wasn’t.[Galeson
How to Train Your Dragon Wings
He flew through the air like an elegant bird. He soared as no human had ever done before—by which he meant failing miserably and falling a hundred meters, all while flailing his wings uselessly before smashing headfirst into the ground.Only a quarter of an hour earlier, he’d experienced the wonders of having wings for the first time. Unfortunately, unlike most other skills, this one didn’t come with as much innate knowledge as one would hope—which is to say, nothing on how the heck to fly at all.When he got the skill, he’d instantly felt the effect of his increased Agility. Every movement became a bit faster, his reactions a bit sharper. Summoning the wings came just after, another easy process. That part of the skill, it did tell him how to do.The wings were entirely black, with small, almost invisible, dark green veins running along the fleshy part of them. They were a bit like those of a bat, or, well, a dragon. He had seen those wings before on the weird copy of himself that he
First World Problems
Jake sat cursing to himself near the cave entrance he had exited just a bit over a day ago. He wasn’t here for a rematch with the Indigo Mushroom, but instead just to do his alchemy. The reason for his sour mood was because he, in his stupidity, had forgotten the book he was right in the middle of reading back at the pond.Could he go back and get it? In theory, yes. Would he? Hell no. They had already begun constructing his new house, and Miranda, together with Louise, seemed very adamant about him staying away until it was done—something that should take less than a week.While they hadn’t explicitly stated he couldn’t go there, he very much got that feeling from them. He had helped a bit by leaving behind a few dozen potions of all three kinds. They were some of the mid-tier iterations he’d made in his two weeks of mass production, but they were still peak inferior or common.He had explained to Miranda about his plan of making the cellar. They had decided to simply build around th
Construction Plans
Jake felt like a weight had been lifted from his shoulders as he saw Miranda leave. Keeping up his prake felt like a weight had been lifted from his shoulders as he saw Miranda leave. Keeping up his professional persona did take some effort, but he was happy that it wasn’t that bad to interact with Miranda.For the last two weeks, the lost potential of the Pylon had been bothering him more than it probably should. Jake knew the offered profession was powerful, and he was curious to see what it could give. But as he didn’t have any desire to pick it up himself, it was just lying there.Which is when he got the idea to offer the job to Miranda. As he talked, he had stretched a small strand of mana down to touch the Pylon, allowing him to offer the profession. When he asked if she wanted it, the system read his intentions. It was a bit of a gamble, but his guts told him it would work.He was a bit afraid of the prospects of a city where he was essentially the highest authority. Heck, ju
Delegating (avoiding) Responsibilities
Jake was more injured than he had first thought. Then again, he’d had quite a few giant needles pierce into his chest and attempt to suck him dry of any and all vitality. Nevertheless, it wasn’t something a healing potion or two couldn’t fix. He quite honestly felt bad for all those out there without the ability to get themselves healed.If he’d had to rely on his natural regeneration, it would’ve taken days to heal the last bout’s damage. To restore his entire 10,000+ health pool would require more than a week. Maybe more, as health regeneration slowed when health was lower.His armor was also pretty damn broken. His chest was exposed entirely, as the mana beam had burned his chestpiece to tatters. Luckily the Self-Repair enchant made the armor virtually unbreakable unless utterly obliterated, and even then, it might not even disappear if it was completely destroyed, as it was "bound" to him.The problem was that it would take some time for it to repair itself, so he would have to go
Big Blue Mushroom
Truly disappointing, Jake thought as he looked at the now dead Alpha Mantis Scyther. A level 89 beast that was the lord of this biodome, reduced to a headless corpse in what couldn’t even be called a real fight.If he had to compare it to something, it would be the Den Mother. And not in a favorable way for the mantis. Despite it being seven levels higher, the Den Mother had been stronger. More importantly, it’d had a much higher level of intelligence and many more skills in its toolbox.Focusing on physical stats, the mantis likely had the Den Mother beaten. Without a doubt, himself too. It was also surprising that there even was such a high-level creature down in these caverns. This biodome in itself was a pleasant surprise.With their leader dead, the mantises were no longer a threat either. Not that they ever had been. Jake made his way towards the center of this biodome, his Sense of the Malefic Viper telling him that something containing a lot of mana was there.Little was in h
