EEN

thanks for the story! man the last few chapters make me really want some art skills to get the scenes in my head out... great stuff!

Marter

For solid minute, I had to reread that last bit I thought they were gonna kidnap the returner families

Funny guy

Danks fur da chappie! 500!!!! (Not multifactorial :|) Congrats!! 🎉 The 6th floor ended at exactly 500 too lol. Very nice 👌 Hadwin 😨

J W

Lily gonna have her way with our boi. Especially after his sister finds out about her

Ronnel

Didn't even notice the chapter number!! Congrats!!! Loving the story 💛

Dreyday

How much you wanna bet a member is going to die on this floor? Maybe two.

Dreyday

Oh dang look at this chat blowing up!! Must be at a real good spot in the story. My wildest prediction will be that Nat and Myrra get married and have half mana cat children! The wedding will be officiated by Roachsandra.

Gristle Tock

What a doozy. Followed the series early on so I’ve never been able to binge new HDT chapters like I did here after jointing. Was great :D Congrats on 500 chapter and….. TFTC!

Chopper

Fear is supposed to protect people from their own stupidity, sadly it often has the opposite effect.

xerebz

Active skill > passive skill. You can buy a passive but you can't buy an active.

Dictator911

I wonder if domain can be combined with something to create a mantel for nat

Amazon Shopper

6th floor was amazing, heres hoping 7th floor will be too!

Sloth

I’m not really sure what that would spit out. What would the higher tier of mana crown and mana domain be? Feels like they can’t be combined unless they are also combined with several other mana skills, such as mana manipulation, ring, mantle, maybe several more as well to get one super [Mana] skill. Not sure if there are combination tokens that take more than one skill, though.

Memelord Steambath

"attacked smithies. Weapons became more expensive again".....wonder if our one arcane maker will take advantage of this fact~

Josh

Oh my god, Ruler-Ruby getting confronted by Lissandra is something I didn't know I need till now

Josh

Also the more easy people show up the more info they get on the different rounds, including descriptions or even names

Josh

Can't wait to see Nat strategically deploy the extrovert by sending him on a gruelling tutorial speedrun to prepare for his arrival on earth

Josh

Like focus and mana manipulation = mana ring

Josh

With the right partner for mana manipulation a mana ring or mantle could be on the table

Erebus

Thanks for the chapter 🙂

Erebus

Definitely top 5, of probably all things I’ve read

Erebus

Bestest story

Johnny

That’s exactly the POVs I’m looking forward to hell yeah

Mr_bommb

This is 100% true but she might grab Maya just cause she is another mana user and following around Nat. Honestly I can see her grabbing the entire group and putting them through a training montage worthy of being called Hell incarnate alongside Myrra.

Alex O'Connor

Faaaacccttttsss

Lonnie

Ooh the cockroach is reaching out! Nat better get a move on in his training. If his control and mana loss hasn't improved much she will work him hard. I hope Vega gets a basic kinetic stone from Nat so she can train and get more monstrous. She needs to surpass Nat so when our world's governments try to use her as leverage on him, she pulls a Whitey and just destroys the kidnap team and complains about them having weak hearts

Kelto

Maybe it's a high tier active combination token, one the let's him fuse focus, crown or domain?

Kelto

I want to see the fusion of crown + domain. Sounds really powerful

Sloth

I wonder what he will use his combo token on? Hopefully he’ll be able to use his higher tier skills. Otherwise maybe he’ll just combo leyline with mana manipulation like he did with regalia. Maybe it’ll give him the ability to make those freeform inscriptions?

Sloth

Perhaps the system considers a passive combination worse than an active one? Which is a little strange considering nat’s passive combo token gave him his unique passive

CJ Tamberella

Cannot wait to see how they handle the 7th floor. Hell and beyond difficulties making an entrance on Earth will be interesting to watch if they’re impressed with easy

RingoSeto

I wonder when channeler will show up a d say... noname is coming you must be ready to bow

Mark Bullock

Congratz!!! Thank u 4 your comitment

RingoSeto

nat lily and tess... lily and tess to see if they are worthy to be champion candidates

Michael Sramek

Congratulations on 500 chapters this story is amazing! Can’t wait to see where you take it!

Mr_bommb

Lissandra is gonna arrive on the 7th floor and bully everyone. I can already see her staring at the Absolute barely holding the line and telling them to sit while she takes Nat and maybe Maya on a training arc using it as a way to sharpen their abilities.

SqrlyGrly

Yeah, but what did Maya do that was more than Nat? He helped kill two champions and created the array. Maybe it's based on improvement? That or the system is an asshole. As always.

Grappleshot

I want Nat to make laylines that act like a geological feature that people will assume is just part of the increasing density of mana.

SqrlyGrly

I heard someone theorize that his mom might have been one of the visitors in the prison when Vic was taken into the tutorial. It's possible. But not sure if I would want it to happen.

Johnny

Duuuude this series man. Lovin all the POVs, easy difficulty showing off when they have NO idea what’s coming. I could read nothing but other peoples reactions to Nat too…and Cockroachssandra is back! Power up!

Gwalmeich

Does he have a sword named Missiltain?

13L00D13ANE

My arcane eye is tingling... no! I must hold back..

13L00D13ANE

Please have him rip up parts of the rocky/sierra nevada mountains for his own personal floating islands. *And in other news, Mt. St. Helens is now airborne..*

13L00D13ANE

Can you imagine.. 3 champs are in an all-out brawl and Lyss steps through a portal and just.. appears. All fighting stops, all 3 slowly turn to regard her, and she's all, "oh, dont let me interrupt. As you were, children." All of them, eyes wide, hair standing on end

13L00D13ANE

I CANNOT WAIT for them to be like "category 6?? They must be hell members!!" And its like.. Channeler with a few items Nat gave him.. XD

13L00D13ANE

I think he is trying to get his active skills all past 50 so he gets the best possible upgrade for his main class. He is def waiting to get the best choices, but the metric he is using is up for debate.

13L00D13ANE

Rick is right. Ruby has all but been confirmed as the Ruler of Greed, which means the original Lyss is either dead or severely weakened/wounded from the destruction of the real Eladore. My headcannon is that either her body remains with an inscription of her mind or shes still alive but just barely. I think thats why cockroachsandra wants to go back to her planet so bad, so she can absorb/meld with her old body (knowledge base) and get a super powerup.

Moon Winchester

All I ask is for Nate to completely remove Ohio from the face of the Earth. To cause minor geological destruction of France. As well as creating a new land mass called kitty land. It can be stolen Florida.

Gwalmeich

Champion Owain? Hopefully he is just as eccentric as the fire emblem character going by the same name.

Pickled Rick

I think her apprentice on that Floor was the eventually Ruler

13L00D13ANE

Those are rookie numbers, you gotta bump those numbers up.

13L00D13ANE

Omg that would be hilarious

13L00D13ANE

Couldn't agree more. Im super stoked for him to go all out on this floor like he did on that one level of the tourny and just blow everything up. XD

nicolas

Not sure she failed to become a ruler anymore as each floor contain a rulers past self

zoarian

What an absolute banger of a chapter, holy shit. That scene with Nat looking at the Champions, focusing on his feelings of powerlessness was chef's kiss. Lowkey one of my favourite moments of the series. 7th floor seems made for Nat. Constant battles to sharpen himself against and plenty of opportunities to observe others, their skills and how they fight. Now that each of Group 4 have settled on an identity, I'm hoping to see them develop team moves and work on small scale tactics. And of course, Liss is back. There will come a day where Nat graduates from Court Lady's pet to Young Irritating Child, and it will be glorious. Super stoked to have her more involved - their mentor/disciple relationship is excellent. Btw, if an earth government goes after Nat's mum, they'll be double fucked lol. Good luck going against Nat and Vic both.

13L00D13ANE

They can, but they can only tell the mark is from someone old and powerful, but not who. Also all it tells them is he is a champ candidate(remember he hasnt been declared an absolute candidate yet, hes going to shoot for that in the next Lyssandra training arc) imo they can only tell he is a champ candidate and whomever left the mark is both old and strong, but not how strong, or who it is Edit: i re-read the last ch and im wrong, they can tell that liss is/was an absolute, so they can get a rough measure of her str.

Broseph

Second this! Congradulations!

Broseph

Reading that line made me think, "Oh you sweet ignorant child!"

13L00D13ANE

They are implying they're going to kidnap the family members of the attendees to both gain info/leverage on them.

XPDev

Oh, good observation, GUH needing to wait till sunday will be painful

Broseph

The only reference they have right now is easy difficulty. Perhaps to maintain their sanity, perhaps because they simply can't fathom it, they are lowballing the threat level of higher difficuties. Furthermore, they have absolutely no other options to leverage control over tutorial attendees, relying on goodwill isn't gonna cut it. To them, doing nothing means accepting that their sovereignty is going to be compromised.

cedric burnam

More earth please

Tee

“Let me ask you this instead: what happens if we’re left with no information or means to negotiate with one?" Can someone explain what this means? I think I understand what’s implied, but don’t truly get the full picture. What they are planning on doing is extremely dangerous as pointed out, and the risk to reward ratio is so extreme that makes little sense in taking such action.

Tee

Wait a sec. We know that champions and absolutes can see the mark on nat. Does that mean him being there would cause a confusion with the battling sides? due to an unknown absolute disciple in the fray. So he’s a walking variable that they’ll have to do something about. Unless the system hides it. I like what’s happening on earth. We also have to remember that the system is unlocking for the earth as more and more attendee return. So the military and the like will have access to the system but not the shop. That is to say, any skills they learn it’ll have to be from their on effort or taught by someone, hence the master discipline ritual.

Pickled Rick

Her only weakness on Floor 5 against the Champion was the inability to produce her own mana but I am pretty sure she fixed that problem either by taking something from that Champion or whatever she did when she got to the dead Absolute.

Subliminary

Why not? He got his Arcane Passive and upgraded his Mana Trait Eyes. The only thing left for him to do is probably use that combination token he just obtained then regain one of the skills he loses from the combination, no?

Subliminary

I disagree. She tried and failed to become a ruler in her first real life. Meaning she was top top tier Absolute. Presumably the power differential there between standard Champions and almost ruler means any “weakness” she has currently is essentially not enough of a weakness to matter in the tutorial

Pickled Rick

All her skills will be lv70+ and as a Player now she can start gaining levels again. Getting to lv250 on the 5th floor would not have been much of a challenge for her and Absolutes don't play by the same ruleset as Champions. Levels don't matter because there is just a qualitative difference between Champions and Absolutes regardless of level.

Joseph Jenkins

End of this book?

Joel

Lissandra is starting from scratch with weakened stats. She was weaker than Nat, but her experience won out. I don't think she can win against full powered champs going haywire, as we have only seen her beat a weakened logical champ.

Brendin Olsen

Oh do not touch anyone's family that's a bad idea

jax rammus

It's based in part on your contributions

jax rammus

Praise progress! It's funny to see the government try to contain the tutorial members, especially since the attendees they see now are the absolute weakest, even for easy lmao. Normal will completely obliterate them.

dwrex smile

Thanks for the chapter and happy holidays

Pickled Rick

I have a lot of stories going on at once in my head so I couldn't remember if she died or not. If they do use Nat's mother though I could genuinely see Nat killing them all. It fits with his Pride and there is no way he is going to let people tell him what to do so Tess is going to have her hands full if she has to keep the peace.

Pickled Rick

My head canon is that she arrived just as they all left and when she saw 3 champions duking it out she slapped some discipline into the unruly lot to clear the floor. That said if everyone left Floor 6 before Lissandra got their she might get a fresh Floor 6 or it will continue immediately as Group 4 left it because each Floor closes behind them when they leave.

Zaim İpek

Her arrival will be in the middle of their fight.

Zaim İpek

I think it's possible he may already be an absolute candidate. I think Lissandra did it secretly on the second or third floor.

Andrew

Thank you!

Zaim İpek

Having the floor change exactly on the 500th chapter is ✨Very Nice✨. The 6th floor moon prison was great. It was a really interesting environment with many interesting side quests and interesting new NPCs. I like how the whole floor was an elaborate puzzle. It was like a Zelda game. That message from mama Liss is pretty terrifying. If Nat doesn't endure enough waves to satisfy Lissandra as her disciple, he will probably be punished. If I remember correctly, Liss only intended to fix her own situation after she helped Myrra. Seeing as Liss is already using the tutorial message system, This implies Myrra is officially part of the tutorial as well. That makes me happy.

13L00D13ANE

His mom is alive. It was established really early on that she doesnt talk to nat and hasnt forgiven him

Jughead

Wasn’t Beyond chat always independent of floors. For example we don’t know which floor Tacita or the First Beyonder is on but they available in the chat.

Max

I think your right with No restrictions for beyond

J W

Dang... hadwin didn't have any bros to clear his internet cache. Liss is running around logged into his account seeing all his seedy searches.

Eddie

Does Beyond chat have the same restriction? I have vague recollections of Beyonders asking each other what floor they were on. I don’t fully remember

Sean

Does Maya have a smaller reward than Nat? She said passive combination while he said active. I'm guessing him killing some of the champions actually helped his floor reward.

Drendude

Presumably, they know who disappeared around the time the tutorials were starting. They don't know what difficulty of tutorial they went to, but if they talked to the families of all of the disappeared people, that will of course include the families of the hell difficulty tutorial attendees.

Joppest

Congrats on 500 chapters!

Max

Does Liss have No floor restrictions for the Community Chat as a "reviver"? Shes asking for the floor but normally you can only Chat on the Same Floor with the Same difficulty or Not? 😁😅

RJ

Will biscuits be named and absolute candidate on this floor? He just became the best doggo of the 7th hell floor!

Ananiash

: ) congrats

Nimps

How do they know who is on which difficulty? Isn't everyone on hell using a fake name?

Midy

Happy 500th !

ZaA

Lmao. I wonder how their scale is working. Id assume that the people getting out either stayed the full 5 years, meaning they've seen at least 2 tournaments, at which point, the hell difficulty players they've seen were probably half(or less) strong than they could be by the end. Whereas if theres a tournament right before the 5 years are up then they'll likely be somewhat accurate in their strength... As far as an easy difficulty player could even comprehend... OR the people getting out were 'like' that serial killer, and just speedran the floors, meaning that the easy difficulty people who stayed longer will be even stronger than the ones they see now. Id bet that even outside of beyond difficulty, hell difficulty will be, on average, as strong or stronger than their scale predicts

nicolas

Lissandra doesn't have her own floor so if she is on floor 6 she might have spawned on group 4 floor with the champions battling.

Jalaxe

Thanks for the chapter! Glad they got humbled and Nat didn't walk all over the final boss on the floor. Nice to mix it up.

PoeticSaint

Congrats on a major landmark! Here's to more! Thanks for this story! Tftc!

Rodmin

YES! Finally on the next floor and it could be really cool with the different fronts, some with champions, some without. I guess we will see a real war that will escalate further and further. And I love seeing snippets of earth. Would love to see a little bit more of it.

Gryxx

Congrats on the big 500, really enjoying the story Cerim!

anonymous patreon

Hey! Yup, if you connect your patreon to your discord it should automatically join you and give you access to patreon only channels where you wont have to worry about spoiling stuff for ppl!

Baldur Norddahl

Hahaha they think the scale stops at 5?

Shawn Treants

Wooooo congrats on 500! This story just keeps getting better. And oh man are they not choosing wisely back on earth after just dealing with easy mode. Their grade 5 is going to be on a scale they just don't comprehend. Is Nats mom still alive? Cause that will not go well for them. Even if there are issues between them.. And just wow she really is a cockroach. Not sure I love her being listed as Hadwin 😥

Dr.Awkward

Congrats on 500! Tftc! I'm sooo looking forward to this floor and the beyond expedition. Also Lissandra coming over and breaking the tutorial is going to be an opportunity for the Rulers to step in! Exciting stuff!!!!!! 😁

Pickled Rick

Yeah seems very shortsighted if they go for the stick method to threaten Hell Difficulty returnees. Also I don't think Nat has anyone they can use except his sister who is also a Hell difficulty. If memory serves his mother died and his sister already killed their father.

Nerø

Looking forward for the next beyond expedition. Grats on the 500chaps mirec!🤗

Pickled Rick

It feels made for our Little Pup if we ignore the fact that he has no desire to level up any further at the moment

Tsorov

And, if they fuck with some hell difficultys family, they are so going to regret that. Because no matter what they do, they can't do anything to them. The easy difficulty ones are already causing problems, they are, as far as we know, unable to contain them. Hell difficulty is just on another level, and provoking them right after they escaped something that was constantly trying to kill them, is a really bad idea

Blaxxun

Congrats on 500, looking forward to floor 7. Also the snippets from earth are fun.

Pickled Rick

Well if she made it to Floor 6 the clear requirements will be a joke to Lissandra. Seriously she will just kill all the Champions for fun and then leave to see if her Little Pup has been keeping up his training. Floor 7 will be really interesting with an Absolute helping them the Waves probably can't get hard enough to challenge them unless the floors Absolute and Lissandra start to clash because of Lissandra's pride.

Mojr

Congrats on the 500 chaps! Nice to see what the government is doing! And Lissandra ofc, see you in 2 days!

Mateusz Lokś

True...

Emmanuel Martinez

Does Cerim have a discord? Or a place where you can share and see fanarts? Chapter 500 is a nice good milestone to celebrate!

Max Vidal

Congrats for 500th chapter ! I can't wait for 501st :) So exited for this floor and Liss in the community !! Thanks for the great story

Arnon Parenti

I hope Liss has to start from floor 1, it would be funny to learn what she did to her own copy when she stole Dawn from the 2nd floor.

Kippling

The 7th sounds really intersing

Claro reyes

Looks like liss is joining group 4.

Spam X

Thx for the amazing chapter, like the last 500 they always end to fast, and battlefield promises to become good. So congrats for reaching 500!

Aoth the Arcane

Thanks for the story Mirec :)

Miguel Anjos

LISSSSS IS IN THE COMMUNITY - HYPE

XPDev

tftc, always happy to see more earth can't wait to see how the gang handles this floor

Max

Gratz to 500!!!

Poutine Au Syrop d'érable

Back on Sunday like usual?

Tristan Thibault

Congrats on 500! Those governments arent gon last much further than the forced return deadline i predict with plans like those

Harrison

Fucking with people’s family is gonna end very very poorly

frankie doerr

Oh damn the cockroach is back she should smack all the champions around on the 6th floor

Venno

Wooo! Congrats on 500 chapters. Excited to see how this floor goes, seems like it will be very action action

Belmont Igneul

THATS BASICALLY NECROMANCY WTF

Belmont Igneul

WHAT the FUCK

Thomas Dey

It seems Liss has gotten attendee status. The next tournament is going to be very interesting.
