《Level Up Hero!》Volume II Rewrite UPDATE
Advertisement
Greetings true believers!
I know it's been a month since I last posted a chapter here on Royal Road, but that's because I've been working hard to finish the Level Up Hero Volume II: Rising rewrites for you all.
The rewrites are significant and will change how Volume III moves forward which is why I decided that my Royal Road readers will need to read it too instead of directing you to just buy the novel on Amazon when it comes out in April 2022. Obviously, the full volume on Amazon will be professionally edited but the new volume 2 chapters I'll be posting here on RR starting today, March 12, 2022, will have all the new content in it—because you guys are the coolest readers in the world and I don't want you to get confused when volume III starts!
Here are some examples of significant changes to the story: WARNING! SPOILERS AHEAD!!!
---
---
---
1. FAME POINTS factor in earlier in the story. Instead of it first appearing after Sam slays the Dragon Kholkikos, it will appear in chapter 3 after Sam and Jackboot defeat a horror.
2. MEDEA has a new look and new goals. This'll change how Volume 2 ends.
3. APEX's story is more fleshed out, and he's got a new dynamic to him which I don't want to spoil that you'll instantly notice when first meeting this villain in the chapter: The Hunter.
4. A lot of chapters like The Second Labor and Oh, River, You Heartbreaker (formerly titled A Trial of Water) have been completely rewritten with new story details, new characters introduced, and new directions for the story to take.
5. Dialogue has been revamped significantly throughout the volume to better reflect the personalities and voices of the different characters featured in the volume; Jackboot sounds more like a Brit than previously with less "mate" used. Farsight's snarkier but she'll have moments of warmth too, etc.

6. The main mission's storyline has also been edited. For example, [SPOILER AHEAD]
when they arrive at Ares' Sacred Grove, they find not one fleece, but dozens of golden fleeces hanging on the tallest tree, and they'll have to figure out which one is the real relic.
7. The entire third act of the story—the part after Sam gets the fleece—has been changed to better reflect the journey undertaken throughout the volume. For example, [SPOILERS AHEAD]
the Ceryneian Hind, Sam's motorbike, the violator, and the spartoi born from the teeth of the Dragon Kholkikos will make an appearance. Hope's appearance has also been revamped. The fight between Sam and Apex will be different too in that Sam alone won't be able to stop Apex. The whole team will be needed, which means a change in the Thunder side story as well. Many more changes, but I won't spoil it for you any more than this. XD
8. Notes on changes will be added into the post chapter author notes for your benefit. XD
Now, what does this mean for the current Volume II chapters? Well, I'll be deleting them all today. Don't worry though because I'll also begin posting the rewrites chapters every day starting today. Some days will have double releases too.
I hope you all enjoy the new Volume II and please don't forget to comment. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the changes, and I usually reply to all messages. Don't forget to update your ratings and reviews if you want to. XD
Also, if you want to read over 20+ chapters of Volume II in advance, head on to my Patreon and you'll find them there.
Lastly, thank you for continuing to read Level Up Hero here on Royal Road. I hope you all enjoy the new content.
Going beyond the extraordinary,
G.D. Cruz
P.S. Iron Blood Arcanist returns this April 2022. Sorry for the delays. XD

Return of the Woodcutter
Aito Walker was a self-proclaimed martial artist, a criminal, a broken man, and a fishing slave who later became a woodcutter before dying due to his heavy consumption of alcohol.With thousands of other humans, he is forcefully revived into a boundless grey space by the gods of a foreign world, Iris, to take part in a never-ending war waged against Fearmongers. A race capable of corrupting living beings and inducing fear, even the bravest of warriors cannot resist—when the Fearmongers do not kill them, that is.To bait humans into this conflict, the gods offer the mortals powers in exchange of eternal servitude and the completion of trials before finally entering Iris.Even though Aito doesn’t agree with it, he sees in Iris a chance to atone for his past misdeeds, in this fantasy world of swords and magic filled with many races, where everything seems possible.He will pave his own path despite the gods he despises trying to manipulate him into doing their bidding.Aito will start with almost nothing but his wit, a peculiar system, and increased strength—much like other revived humans.Bearing a sin—he could not, cannot, and will not forget—haunting him to this day, Aito will strive to regain what little honor he has left.He will suffer and, at times, fail. Taking advantage of his weaknesses, the Fearmongers, demigods, gods, and many others will hinder his path.But a powerful yearning will keep him from falling apart. An ever-burning flame melting away the despair and welding back the broken pieces of courage.A single desire.«I will find redemption no matter the cost.»………Or not, hun, who knows? The book isn’t done yet. Haha—SLAP!«Who put this guy in the synopsis narration?! Get him out of here and launch the warnings! Now!»***WARNINGS:— The MC is human. If you’re looking for a perfect MC, you’ll only be wasting your time here. However, if you’re looking for an MC who will LEARN, GROW because of his flaws. An MC who will try his hardest to overcome adversity, then you’re in the right place.— No harems. However, it doesn’t mean the characters can’t fool around without having love interests. A relationship isn’t necessary for people to satisfy their physical desires.— You will find a few typos, grammatical and wording issues, that’s certain. I’ll do my best to bring you guys quality content and such issues will either be nonexistent or extremely few. However, one man can only do so much. If I get enough support, I’ll hire an EDITOR that will look at the chaps with a fresh eye. And POOF! Issues no more. Improved quality. Happier author and reader. Not sure if the editor will be happy tho.— The first three chapters are fast-paced as to quickly get into the nitty-gritty but slow down afterward to give the story the time it needs to progress accordingly.— The book can, never mind, it will contain «strong» language, gore and violence.— Comedy, as you know it (and if you don’t, now you know) is subjective. So you might not like the jokes.— If you truly read that until the end you have my virtual congratulations ‘cause I sure as hell wouldn’t have done that.

Transposed
Apparently, even heaven had the odd clerical error. Which was not something Nathaniel Miller would have expected, and yet, that seemed to be exactly what had happened to him. The collector of souls seemed to have been given the wrong address, and instead of taking one Nathaniel Miller of the earth apparently right next door, he took Nate. As recompense for this small bit of error Nate was placed in the body of the Nathaniel Miller that had supposed to have been taken in the first place, and seeing as he now had an opportunity to try to live his life a different way he planned on taking advantage of this chance. No one, however, had specified how different this world would be from his, sure they had said the tech would be a little older, and there were other small anomalies. But no one had seen fit to let him know that older meant medieval, and those small anomalies mentioned? They probably referred to all the fantasy elements and magic that seemed to be part of this world. Still, he was determined to do better this time around, after all, chances like this were next to unheard of...
