"Hera, please! Help me!" Alex had half her head missing while crawling on the floor. Tears, snot, and blood were coming down her face. Below her waist was a writhing mass of something that seemed to be eating the assassin as the sound of crunching bones echoed through the alley.
Hera glanced at her friend, but she didn't stop. After seeing about a dozen versions of the slimes and stopping...
2022-12-16 13:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostAfter being sure that no monster would pop out of the water again, Hera helped a shivering Blue to go inside the captain's quarters. Despite all the fighting, there wasn't a single scratch in the entire ship. Even that last monster and Blue's attack could not make a dent in the crystal vessel. This probably meant that the captain's quarters was the safest place in this entire dungeon.

The last thing she needed was to be tossed overboard. Glancing towards the monster, a gigantic 2-meter-tall Cephalopoda, not counting the size of its tentacles, she triggered her [Observe].

Blue continued running around, jumping back and forth like a kid going to a playground for the first time.
"Why are you so hyped? It's not like this is the first time we've gone on a boat," Hera walked inside the dungeon.

Daskka floated to Hera's side and looked at the window, "I'm… not sure. Give me a moment."
"Hera! Come look at this!" Shane yelled from the cabin.
Hera glanced back and then turned to Daskka, "Go, mum. This will take a moment."
"I think I know what is going on. Let's ...

Hey everyone! So I made a mistake a while back and only noticed now. On chapter 522 Hera let Ooze go and swapped them with a different blade. The problem is that Ooze played some important roles ever since them. From fights to being the warning scout. I feel like it would be wrong to change all that.
So, here is what I'm doing. I'm saying that Hera got an...
"Guys...." Hera tried to speak, but she was cut off by Bonnie.
"Are you nuts? Even if she gets that skill, it will only mean that in the future, she can get something. It doesn't help now! The Royal Palace one could actually help us all. That way, her court could be anywhere we need while we are here."
"So? Not everything is about the short-term. We need to think about what comes ne...

When Hera woke up in the morning, she could hear Bonnie's voice. She got up and saw how the researcher seemed okay, despite her arm and leg. Right now, she even had replaced the splints made by the Empress with a couple of stone casks to keep her limbs secure.

"Well, shit. Shapeshifting slimes?" Shane rubbed her eyes.
"It seems like it. Have you ever seen one before?" Hera replied.
"During the explorer test. There was one I had to deal with. It was like an extra challenge, and I almost managed to beat it," Shane explained. 2022-11-28 13:00:11 +0000 UTC View Post

Bonnie did her best to stay up, worried that if she passed out, there wouldn't be a way to help everyone. However, now that she was inside a seemingly safe location and the party looked like they were getting ready to rest, she let the sleep and the numbing effect of Daskka's spel...

Hera, Daskka, Nimbus, and Mylo inched, little by little, toward the open door. They were all trying their best to notice something from the room beyond it. They didn't want to be caught off guard if something, or someone, was inside that place. Hera knew that the odds of that were...
