Talia spent her four stat-points on Intelligence, and a surprisingly warm smile appeared on her light-pink lips. She gazed up at the enormous ape, “Antonio… It has truly been too long since we have last met. However, this is perhaps, not the best time to reminisce.” Continue reading

Hardcore OP-ness
I just finished writing the ‘Epilogue’ of the first book, or at least what I call the first book lol. I felt the need to make an announcement about it :P.
Anyway, I’m not going to talk about the next book ‘here’, because there are still 41 chapters and an Epilogue that hasn’t been posted on the site yet. Obviously, there are just way too many potential spoilers and I’m afraid to say anything about anything at the moment.
However, since I haven’t gotten any new donations or pledges lately, I decided to remind people about it. I kind of want to take a break from writing for a few days… or something? But mainly because I know that once I start writing book 2, I’m probably going to start getting devoured by it, like I did back when I first started writing Hardcore OP-ness.
I’m already really burnt out, so if I go straight into hardcore writing mode in my current condition… lol. Anyway, I want everyone who has donated or is planning on donating to know that I’ll be placing book 2 stuff into the same folder that I’ve been using for the first book. So~, if you donate 10 dollars or pledge 10 dollars, I won’t remove your access just because I’m starting a new book rofl.
I mean, sure, I’d probably get a lot more donations and pledges if I treated HCOP as over and started something new, but I don’t think that would be fair at all to the people who have supported me and helped keep me writing for so long.
Sigh, I can’t believe I’ve been able to finish a book in 4.3 months… I’m not sure if that’s long or short, but I’ve definitely written at least 100k more words in the last 4.5 months, than I did over the course of the 10 months I was working on Immortal Soul. As for Immortal Soul, who knows? I may randomly decide to start working on that again, but for now, it’s on hiatus.
I will say that “Immortal Soul” and “Hardcore OP-ness” do have a pretty strong connection to each other, but I can’t specify how. After reading the rest of this first book and the beginning of the second, you should probably understand by then, assuming that you’ve already read “Immortal Soul”.
Anyway~, I can’t really think of anything else to say~, so I’ll just link so cute animal videos or something? lol
Chapter 253: Where’s Jonathan?
“Quest Complete: The brutal war between The New Goblin Empire and The Dwarven Republic has finally ended with a peace-treaty between the current Supreme Commander, Jason Jade, and Empress Lorelei Fleischer. Millions died during the few weeks that the conflict raged, but the end result was that thirteen cities are currently under the Empire’s control, eighty-two have remained within the Republic, three were completely annihilated, and one was ‘bought’ by a mysterious third party. The neutral city ‘Nekoshire’ coincidentally contains one of the Seven Great Gateways of Light, which is connected to the Gateway of Light that has been awarded to you and your Companions for participating in ten Battlegrounds during the war.” Continue reading

Chapter 251: Hardcore Foreshadowing
Laying on Elina’s bed were four eggs, two cat-girls and a baby Lamia. Within a pure-white, brightly-glowing ‘Mysterious Cat Egg’ were three embryos, each of them were fairly early in development, so it was difficult to tell exactly what they were going to look like eventually. Continue reading
Chapter 250: The New Necropolis
There was an ominous obsidian gateway in the cavern that Kelsey and Roycerus lived in, which was a portal to and from the eastern side of the Necropolis. The two skeletal humanoids were ‘playing’ in the jungle, so they weren’t there to notice the small horde of undead traveling in and out of their home. Continue reading

Chapter 248: A Bit of Backstory
Lucrecia wasn’t the only golem who managed to gain sentience; every time one of the Stoneguard absorbed two rank-E mana-cores, they would evolve. During the process, a soul from a recently deceased ‘Citizen’ of Luxiana, would swiftly enter inside. Continue reading
Chapter 247: Protecting Luxiana
“Patriarch Xuan Hao, Level-33 Wood-Elf Martial Artist, Rank-D, Raid Boss,” was a two-meter tall man, with bulging muscles and sword-scars all over his face, chest and back. He left his upper-body exposed and only wore baggy black pants, with no shoes. Continue reading

“Mike… what time is it? What’s wrong?” A beautiful bronze-skinned Earth Fairy was lazily opening her eyes and staring at the little boy who was cuddling against her left side. Continue reading
