  • Chapter 46: Foundations
    Sep 29 2025
    Night falls soft on the Temple of Partition, but Kenshiro isn’t done. While the others settle in, he sets his plans, tightens his tools, and makes a quiet promise to return. The path ahead is clearer now—and narrower. If he’s going to help Tara, he needs more than hope; he needs fundamentals, intention, and a kit that serves a strategy instead of chance.

    Morning brings work. Under Fel’Tal’s regimen, the world becomes a practice ground: scout, pressure, reposition, repeat. It’s not a montage—it stings. Missed timings, burned knuckles, long breaths between attempts. But something shifts. Roles click, surprises are banked, and the training stops being punishment and starts becoming a foundation. Step by step, Kenshiro learns to fight on purpose—not just to survive, but to be ready.

  • Chapter 45: Ranking
    Sep 24 2025
    Back within the Temple’s quiet, Kenshiro tries to explain the unexplainable—what it means to reach for someone you love in a world that doesn’t share your language or tech. While the others investigate, he wrestles the experience into terms his companions can accept, then turns to the only conclusion that matters: if he’s going to help Tara, he has to get stronger—and do it on purpose.

    This chapter shifts from proof to planning. Through sparring philosophies and lived examples, the logic of rank, attributes, and class identity comes into focus—not as a checklist, but as a mindset. Roles, counters, and a “keep-one-ace-hidden” approach set the stage for how Kenshiro might fight tomorrow. It’s the start of a build, shaped by personality as much as power, and the first clear sketch of what Skill Eater could become.

  • Chapter 44: Numbers
    Sep 22 2025
    Ash drifts through a ruined street as Vahl steps out of a fight that cost more than he expected. Wounded but unbowed, he moves with purpose—less a marauder than a ledger come to life, tallying debts, measuring power, and deciding who or what still matters. Freedom is the point; every chain he forges or breaks serves that single word.

    What follows is not spectacle but judgment. Faced with a choice that cuts closer than he’d like to admit, Vahl weighs mercy against utility, oath against opportunity, and writes a new line in his personal doctrine. In a world ruled by rank and rules, this chapter asks what freedom really costs—and who pays it.

  • Chapter 43: Stronger
    Sep 17 2025
    Stone, warm air, and worried faces greet Kenshiro as the world settles back into focus. Relief hits first, then resolve. The temple has answered—not with easy comfort, but with direction. What was once confusion begins to feel like a framework he can move within, and the weight of what’s ahead sharpens into purpose he can name without saying aloud.

    This chapter pivots from survival to intention. New obligations surface, the stakes are made plain, and Kenshiro chooses a path forward that strengthens what matters most. Growth here isn’t loud; it’s disciplined—priorities clarified, resources counted, and the first deliberate step taken toward becoming someone who can protect what he loves.

  • Chapter 42: Call
    Sep 15 2025
    The Temple of Partition waits in amber hush—stone, light, and quiet air that turns footsteps into ceremony. Kenshiro leads the way inside, past mosaics that remember more than he wants to admit, carrying a knot of fear and hope he can’t untie. Last time here was anything but simple. This time, he’s come for answers—about the world that claimed him, the system that shadows his steps, and the woman whose image rises like a vow on the chapel wall.

    What follows is an act of faith and a test of intent. The party gives the hall its space while Kenshiro chooses how to reach across a distance that isn’t measured in miles. On the far side of devotion lie rules, costs, and the possibility of being heard—but not without limits. Whatever the outcome, the road ahead narrows into purpose, and the next move carries both risk and resolve.

  • Chapter 41: Temple
    Sep 10 2025
    Smoke still clings to the trail as the party leaves the Bellowback behind, carrying bruises and words they can’t take back. Tempers flare—Fel’Tal’s command, Yula’s indignation, Korren’s raw edge—before the mountain settles into an uneasy quiet. Kenshiro keeps his distance, steadying himself in small, practical ways, eyes fixed on a single destination that matters more than the argument: Tara’s Temple of Partition.

    What follows is a march held together by duty and thin truce. Along the way, hints of the wider system surface—familiars, ranks, responsibility, and the quiet discipline of keeping watch—while a simpler question rises to the front: how do you pray to a godling you love? Kenshiro doesn’t have an answer, only a direction. The temple promises clarity—about Tara, about what she’s become, and about what waits when he finally calls her name.

  • Chapter 40: Golem
    Aug 11 2025
    The mountainside becomes a furnace when a corrupted threat erupts from the treeline, forcing the party to scramble. Heat warps the air, lines blur, and split-second choices matter more than rank or pride. Kenshiro is pushed off any semblance of comfort and has to move without his usual safety net, learning—painfully—what it means to survive beside veterans who expect precision, not potential.

    What follows is less a tidy victory than a pressure test. A plan set in motion away from the immediate clash, a surge of resolve that steadies frayed nerves, and the reminder that power comes with costs the system won’t let him ignore. When the smoke thins, something old and personal tugs at Kenshiro’s focus, and the road to the Temple of Partition carries the scent of ash.

  • Chapter 39: Everywhere
    Aug 6 2025
    Far from the forests of Nowhere, Tara sits in a familiar living room built from memory and subconscious power, a self-made sanctuary in the realm of godlings. But comfort proves fleeting. As she sips tea across from Mela, a true goddess of old, Tara learns just how fragile her newfound status really is. Her Champion remains unstable. Her temple, vulnerable. And her godhood? Precariously conditional.

    What follows is no simple lecture but a cosmic revelation. Tara is walked through a layered history of realms, gods, and the elemental forces that shape existence itself. The truth is sprawling, sometimes beautiful, often terrifying. But beneath the myths and shifting pantheons lies a chilling reality: her rise signals not peace, but the onset of a larger, older conflict. And the war she’s just been told about? It’s already begun.
