It would be a pity to ignore so many dungeons when Femradiel could obtain classes from nearly all of them. So, Ryan hunted and cleared the dungeons that he already had cleared to strengthen her. While he wasn't growing that much stronger while hunting small groups of enemies, thanks to Femradiel, Ryan noticed something important.
"Your Alchemist and Blacksmith class are almost the level max," Femradiel said. "Shouldn't you work on them since you already have another at the max level?"
Thanks to the fight and the preparations for the fight against Poseidon, Ryan leveled up those classes quite a bit, but he forgot about them after it. Still, was it a good idea to sacrifice the Magic Archer class alongside Blacksmith and Alchemist class?
"Oh, well… I can't see any other classes that are close to reaching the max level, so I guess I will do it," Ryan shrugged.
Leveling up the alchemist class was easy. Ryan just had to use the essences that he obtained by defeating monsters and make potions. The Blacksmith class caused some headaches for Ryan. Still, in the end, he succeeded in making that class reach the max level after creating another massive spear, using ice, titanium, and his own blood.
Congratulations! You have reached the requirements to obtain a special class. Do you wish to sacrifice the classes: Alchemist, Magic Archer, and Blacksmith? Y/N?
Congratulations! You received the class Support Archer. You learned the skills: Health Arrow, Support Mana Arrow, and Stamina Arrow. Your dexterity and stamina have increased and will increase by twelve points whenever this class level up. Your health, mana, speed, and control have increased and will increase by six points whenever this class level up.
Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Health Arrow.
Effect: A special arrow that can recover the health of the target. The amount of health restored will be equal to the level of the skill multiplied by ten.

"Support Archer? What the fuck?" Ryan furrowed his eyebrows in annoyance.
"Awesome, now you can help me train. I am starting to have problems with the amount of mana and stamina I can use, after all," Femradiel said.
Despite her words, Femradiel was having a hard time preventing herself from laughing. It was evident that such a class didn't fit Ryan in any way. Instead of offering support, he would rather receive support from others, mainly from monsters that could form a shield to protect him.
Regardless, Ryan didn't gain any offensive skill, but the class itself wasn't so bad. It was a tier six class, after all. After doing some tests by using Support Mana Arrow, Ryan confirmed that Femradiel could already clear a tier two dungeon by herself… even though the monsters were at level eight hundred.
"Ah… this is it… this is it! This feeling is awesome," Femradiel said. "Having a human body and the mana pool of a dragon is awesome."
Femradiel looked pretty excited when Ryan decided to offer her some support… perhaps too excited. After confirming his suspicions, Ryan decided to stop. Nothing good would come by letting Femradiel get carried away. After making a mental note not to mix up several types of classes to be sacrificed again, Ryan looked for the next dungeon, already knowing that he probably would mess up again. He was that curious, and he couldn't wait to have other classes to sacrifice. Waiting for the special classes was always thrilling, after all.

While moving around the country, making use of Elven Mastery, and helping Femradiel to obtain more classes, Ryan confirmed that the ocean's level didn't increase, and not a single dungeon break happened. That made Ryan confirm that he will have a few weeks of peace… However, the only peace he knew was the one where he had the chance to prepare for the next difficult fight.
"Hello again, Ryan," Isis suddenly said. "I have some bad news and some good news."
Even before Ryan could find a dungeon that he hadn't cleared yet, someone decided to bother him. While Isis was more or less an ally, it didn't change the fact that she was getting in the way of his preparations at such a moment.
"I am used to hearing only bad news," Ryan said. "So, you don't need to beat around the bush."
"My contributors want to meet you, but to do so, you will have to come to my world, where no other elder god will be able to spy on our talk," Isis said.
"Why? What am I going to gain by meeting them now of all times?" Ryan asked. "They looked down on me until now, but they changed their minds after I defeated Poseidon? Come to think of it, you never said that you had more than one contributor."
"You are correct, the reason being is the fact that there are too few people who share my way of thinking. I only had one contributor until yesterday, but another one joined the group," Isis explained. "You are correct again; they changed their minds about you when you defeated Poseidon. As for what you might gain by meeting them… I can't say for sure. While they are not bad elder gods, they still are pretty proud of themselves. From their perspective, I assume that letting you meet them is already a reward in itself."
"Oh, is that so?" Ryan asked. "Then, I am going to pass. I will grant them the honor of not meeting me. I have heard that I am not a good guest."

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.

Unfettered Spear
[Ratata~] Being showered with bullets from all directions, I certainly don't feel so good. Especially, feeling the bullets passing through my body, which is simply torture. After God knows how long, the gunfire finally stopped. I had my head down, contemplating that this was the end. However, it was at this time that I heard someone jumping off the car in front. I looked up and saw that it was the "Boss." "I should've done this much sooner, you really done a number on my men despite being alone!" "I must admit that you are good, but too good that you're a threat to MY throne!!" "I–" Alas, the Boss' monologue was cut halfway through. When he held his head high, an action to signify his pride, a bullet pierced through his under chin into his brain and out the back of his head. He looked at me in disbelief, like the others around. None of them anticipated that I could still fire my pistol, much less accurately aiming at one's head at the hip level, after being turned into a bloody meat-sieve. "You... Monster!!!" To the Boss' dying words, I only replied with a smile as my strength left my body.
