Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Thirty-Six

Unfortunately, there didn't seem to be any kind of super trick questions or prompts anywhere that would get her a pass or even bonuses for being thorough. That being that, she wrote her name in the topline where it was indicated, smirking a little at not having basically written anything physically for months. She read the first question, findin...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Thirty-Five

The conversation turned out to be very boring, as the group of three were asking Tazeen a bunch of rather basic questions. Things about how leveling worked and where best to put stat points which, she supposed, it was great to have a real expert’s help, but she figured most people would have figured out all that out at this point. The two men ...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Thirty-Four

Beth collapsed to her knees, sitting on her heels as she panted heavily, feeling like she was going to pass out and puke at the same time and wanting to do neither. Blood appeared beside her a moment later, knowing that the monster was dead from both the notification and level-up, dropping down next to Beth and wrapping an arm around her back. T...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Thirty-Three

Beth was hesitant to use her Presence, despite the lack of damage on their part, though not for lack of trying. The beast was just so tough that neither of them was able to really dish out anything that serious, some of Beth's best hits spiderwebbing its tough shell, while Blood did little more than scratch the joints and redirect a few close-ca...

###Note###

Sorry this is a bit of a cliff, but there wasn't a good way to divide this and the next chapter without either making this one very short or extremely long. Just look forward to the conclusion on Monday.

The next morning was much the same, as Beth spent a bit of extra time with Sabs, time she ha...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Thirty-One

They returned to the Hall, Beth grumbling more and more as the claws and tail of the corpse kept constantly getting stuck on everything. She didn't give up because she knew that the whole thing would be very valuable. It was just annoying that it was too big to fit in a necklace, and way too tough for them to cut up in any reasonable amount of t...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Thirty

The next morning came fairly quickly, at least for Beth, who hadn't really expended much effort. Killing the bandits had been a grim, but easy, job that they had finished fairly quickly before returning to the Hall, and their morning efforts at training hadn't been overly taxing. She held Sabs close as the smaller woman slept, gently caressing h...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Twenty-Nine

Beth and Blood made sure the area was stripped of anything useful before seeing to the bodies. It was a bit of grim, dirty work, but wild beasts would take care of the corpses, and Beth and Blood moved the bodies out of the complex and dumped them in a nearby field. Once again, the necklaces came in super handy, as they were able to gather up al...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Twenty-Eight

Beth ended the call and then walked back over to the table, finding the six people of the town asking Blood some random questions, including several questions about how her level was so high. Blood, for the most part, ignored them, answering only a few things with simple phrases. It was rather rude of her, but then again, it wasn't their job to ...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Twenty-Seven

Anyway, she twisted the knife so the hilt pushed outward against the man's thumb, always a good way to disarm someone. That is, assuming their weapon-holding arm was mostly immobile, and their other arm couldn't interfere. Twisting the handle or hilt of a weapon against the thumb was quite effective because it was much weaker than the rest of th...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Twenty-Six

"Hold on," Beth interrupted, getting a glower from him that she ignored. "Exactly how strong are we talking? Can you remind me again of the tiers or whatever? And what do you mean, exactly, by that immortality comment?" 

Jaq sighed again, deeply, before answering, "When I talk about someone's relative power, like ma...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Twenty-Five

Beth woke first the next morning, only needing a couple hours sleep even when she was tired, using more than that only when she was truly exhausted or had suffered some kind of soul damage such as from using her gate power. She held Sabs for a while and relaxed, not even bothering to open a book to study as she just enjoyed the warmth and the fe...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Twenty-Four

Even with Blood's mapping data, they certainly couldn't avoid fighting, as the huge cavern had even more cave brutes and kobolds present than the last time they were down there. The mana had continued to grow thicker, as it was all over Earth, though it was slowing just a bit. The main effect was that the higher mana concentration areas were sti...

"These things are basically perfect," Beth said, lifting the rather heavy gauntlets and admiring them, not missing Jaq's snort at her words. "What, you disagree?" 

"They will work quite well for you, but they are far from perfect," he replied caustically. "The best equipment there is, apart from being of a much grea...

###Author's Note###

Sorry about the weird pictures for the gear, but Patreon apparently doesn't let you color fonts, which is absolutely wild to me. Unless I'm just missing it, but I tried a number of things and none of it worked, so from now on the gear is going to be those crummy pasted in pictures. Apologies.

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Twenty-One

Beth straightened up after the last kobold was dead, shaking blood off her blade. She pulled a cloth out of her necklace and looked at it before grimacing and storing it again, making a note to get some clean cloths to use on her equipment before storing her blade, still slightly dirty, in her necklace. Luckily, time was stopped in her necklace ...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Twenty

It had been a while since Beth had done it and, come to think of it, she had gotten at least a little bit of an upgrade since then. Beth brought up the options to see what she could do and what had changed and was pleasantly surprised by what was available. She poked around in the menu for a minute to view the new features and see what all was a...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Nineteen

The area they wound up overlooking from a small shelf of broken rock was about seventy-five feet across and was swarmed with kobolds. There were no brutes in the area, Beth noticed, the thick-skinned troll-like beings entirely absent from not just the clearing but the surrounding area. There weren't just a few kobolds present, either, but close ...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Eighteen

Leaving the building, she adjusted her armor, frowning as her breath frosted heavily in front of her. She inhaled deeply, the cold air not quite enough to make her cough, but sharp enough that even with her resistances it was into the edge of unpleasant. Turning towards the way that Blood had gone a handful of minutes ago, she moved out, walking...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Seventeen

The next morning saw them waking up a little before dawn, Beth the first to wake as usual. She sleepily rubbed Sabs's back for a few minutes until the shorter girl stirred, leaning back to pull her head up from the pillow. She looked blearily at Beth for a moment before sliding over and kissing her, snuggling against her for a minute before sitt...

"How do you do that?" Beth asked as they got close to the field. 

"What, walk? I use my legs," John replied. 

"Move that fast while looking like you're walking," Beth elaborated. 

"Stats, movement skills, and practice," he answered drolly.

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Fifteen

Beth and Sabs both laughed, and both complied with the command, Sabs stroking Blood up and down the spine. The two finished their drinks and relaxed for a minute before Sabs had to get up, nearly entangling herself in Blood's legs. She eventually worked free and took her mug to the kitchenette before slipping into the bedroom, coming out a minut...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Fourteen

Walking down the hallways through the underworks and arena section, she took a moment to glance around at all the gilt and marble, slightly in awe of how she wasn't really in awe of it anymore. She eventually wound up in the lobby, noting one person she didn't know walking into the other hallway that led back into the building. She approached th...

She walked over and leaned against the counter next to him, looking around at the three other people in the commissary before saying, "I see you're actually busy now." 

"Window shoppers," Jaq replied with a sneer. "Unlike your group, they don't actually ever buy anything. Wasting my time while they just browse."&nbs...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Twelve

It was in the heart of the central area that they found something strange, something a lot more than they had expected, though it shouldn't come as a surprise that the heart of the strange area was where they found the real prize. And it was certainly a prize of some kind, as they entered a larger open space, close to a hundred feet to a side an...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Eleven

It didn't take very long at all for them to figure out there had been massive changes throughout the entire underground. The area they were moving down used to be essentially one very long hallway with a few side branches that dead-ended before the tunnel spilled out into a large room that had five other hallways branching out from it. Instead, ...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Ten

She led the group across the field, casually killing a wolf as it leapt at her, earning an aborted shout from Zack. She couldn't hear him grumbling from where he was behind her, but she could imagine it with a small chuckle of her own. She entered the Wolf Breeding Ground to find that it was different, but not by that much. It was larger, the cl...

************

Just to alleviate confusion, yes, this is today's chapter. I did a ton of editing the last 2 weeks and removed 20, yes, TWENTY chapters from the first two hundred. This isn't a re-write, I didn't change anything, I merely cut content, but that means what was chapter 229 is now good ol' 209. You don't have to do any re-reading ...

Announcement: Major Edit

Sorry, I guess this didn't post yesterday for some reason when I was doing the work and people just informed me of no notice today. I did a bunch of editing the last two weeks and yesterday put that into action both over on RR and here, removing 20 chapters of excess fights from the story. These were mainly early on, in the first 50 chapters, an...

Limitless Path Chapter Two Hundred Twenty-Four

Beth was having a much less strange and much more painful experience, as the liquid created a great warmth in her whole body after she finished drinking it. That warmth very quickly turned to flame, a burning pain spreading throughout her entire body as the liquid almost forcefully shot itself through her circulatory system and to every part of ...
