For people reading in February will there be chapters tomorrow?

Subliminary

This is torture. I regret my decision giving you a week off LOL

Lizy Flore

He cleared the 12th in a few minutes and the 13th in two hours iirc. But he didn’t go beyond that, no

TYRELL GRAY

Yep, and that’s why these guys are crazy.

Twotons

I remember reading somewhere pride started to make moves such as clear floor 16th of beyond after long period of time being inactive. Am I wrong??

Lizy Flore

Wait a minute. If we’re back on schedule Thursday, that means this one will be the ONLY chapter of the week, and the rest will resume on Sunday…

Majulla

as soon as he knew the location of the shard on earth, there's no avoiding that it was greed who gave it to him.

Cheikh Sall

Mana daddy is now S rank🥳

Jesse

Just bought the Patreon last night and just caught up lol woe is me

monsieurTNT251

It's for the best, I don't know what you're talking about

Broke Boy

Can’t believe you guys said a week break 💔

Ronnel

Merry Christmas! I hope you get the most out of your vacation!! 💛

Liam Zay

Add a year to that. The last tournament started when there were two years left. Yeah I'm interested in his next trait and his eventual class upgrade

Nemesis

I'm thinking there is a chance that Nat may have asked to change handlers, in order to continue the facade that Greed betrayed him, and obscure how he found the fragment dungeon. This should also help keep him off the radar of the other rulers, since he can't be one of Greeds weapons if he was discarded, and Greed is known to only care about making her weapons.

Michael Williams

Agreed, I hope we haven't skipped right over these events. Nat/Nyssa getting to 6th floor beyond. End of 9th tutorial floor. Reaching level 400. I feel like we only just got 350 and the body upgrade haha. Im sure cerim has a plan!

Nate Zucker

Same. I binged what was available and then immediately subbed here a couple of days ago!

Lance Beam

TFTC and a great book Cerim. Rest up see you in the new year.

Death56

Mana tyrant fits him it's either that or mana daddy

13L00D13ANE

Only thing i will say is i *do* hope we get a scene from nat/nyssa vs 5th floor mana champ. Id hate for that event to go unwritten.

CrypticAnon

Banger of a book Cerim. Enjoy your break to its fullest and I can't wait to read it when you come back.

Audrey WJ

Tree shaped mana battery 😈.

Audrey WJ

Happy Holidays Everyone 💖.

Audrey WJ

I think a time skip at the beginning of the next book is better than ending it that way, it makes me way to curious about all that has happened to end on a time skip cliffhanger 😂, would be so evil of you.

Audrey WJ

I miss Myria 😔.

JJB4345_80_815

Yes, thank you for the chappy and Merry Christmas!

Asterrahl

Who needs a rest from this story, anyway?! That's not how this works at all, haha

GuyWhoReadsALot

Just wanted to say how much I enjoy this story. Kudos to the author!

KDR

So somewhere around a year and 9 months left of tutorial? Curious if having the fragment affected what traits he was eligible for at 400 (assuming he got to that level during this time skip)

tishane Imperial MageKiller

The living tree calamity all over again

Braiden Enright

First time commenter - I think this was a fantastic way to end the book, I would save the extra POVs to open the next one. Enjoy your break and holidays!

Kirin

Thank you for the chappie!

AFunkyLad

MERRY CHRISTMAS CERIM!!!

Arme nd

I think this just highlights Nat's insane perception at this point as it was always up high with his mana manipulation.

Yozora

"Meanwhile, I feel my breath freeze as I look at the human’s face. He is staring right at me, radiating untouchable confidence. It is obvious that, unlike Weslin, he has realized I was observing his Void." Is Black Mana name in truth Void Mana? or did nat learn Void Primordial Element? Or is this was just an error? It feels a bit confusing to me, is this Void he is talking about, Weslin's or Nat's?

Bobby

Tyftc! I think this is a great chapter to end the book on!

Ashley Hilferty

I’m super obsessed with this book and sad you’ll be off for a week, BUT it’ll be like Xmas all over again when you start back up

Kenny

800 seems pretty high for an absolute. The elemental in this chapter is the highest level we've seen so far by a lot. The champions on floor 6 were between 450-500. A level 620 is already a massive jump from there, 150+ levels is massive at that point. Wouldn't be surprised if most Absolutes are in the 500s, slowly climbing upwards the older they are. Old ones might be in that 600+ range, and Lissandra is just an aberration skill wise.

Hms

So is he able to use the tree like a mana vault that is able to load up on ambient mana instead of having to get it from Nat? Would be a heck of a defense system for his eventual home base allowing him to have access to a large source of mana that dwarfs the halo. Either that or it will probably become sentient and act like the living tree 2.0 and create some sort of ridiculous barrier.

Stoney

I never want a break from this story. I do however want you to take breaks that you need/want in order to continue this story. TFTC

Balsamic ThunderThighs

Random but I wonder if Weslin is still dating that one crazy gravity chick. Also hooray S ranker Mana Daddy! I mean Mana Tyrant. Also enjoy your time with family and possibly petting a absolute-ly great corgi not named Biscuit Cerim!

Daniel Golding

Nat should give her a heart from a demon. A thoughtful gift for the holiday season, freshly ripped out. Heartfelt, you might say...

Daniel Golding

Mana reactor?

Andrew

Thank you!

James

Thanks for the chapter. I love his title. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year🎅🎉🎉🎆🎇

Registered Hex-Offender Nax 116

This is a good chapter to close off on

BlackRazaras

Thanks for the chapter

Forcewagon

TFTC, great one to end the year on hope you have a Happy Holidays and looking forward to next year <3

TBONEMAN

So the tree fragment absorbs energy and uses it to grow and probably explode. Sounds like it fits Nat.

Edmund Dillon

Tftc!!!! Always brightens my mornings💯. Happy Holiday and enjoy the break!!

Doug

Lisandra didn't need the black dagger after she created her own mana heart. When she was thrown in the 12th floor of beyond, she had to cripple her mana heart. She started using the black dagger again when Nat and Lisandra met with the disciple token and he created black mana for her to use.

Sir Supports Alot

Enjoy the break an happy holidays!!✨✨

Al

::mob of addicted swarm Joe:: Joe is now with Nyssa …and the fishies 🐟🐠. But fr Cerim hope you enjoy your break.

Th3Defiant

Wait, I thought the black dagger was taken by the rulers when Myrra and Lissandra were sent to the 12th floor? Why did Myrra mention that Liss could use it?

Brian Hoffmann

I like this chapter as the start of the new book. And the last chapter as a solid ending. Every single one is fantastic. Well done.

Name1

I don’t think she did either so maybe it came with a body upgrade?

Benji1229

Happy holidays!

mitchell kaiser

Enjoy your break Cerim! You absolutely deserve it and have a merry Christmas!!!

William Johnson

Enjoy your break, happy holidays & thanks for a year chapters!

Malestan

Nobody, except Pride (who cleared it as well, what a beast), went to the 13th floor. All the other Rulers stopped at the 12th Floor

hunts899

PEAK

Malestan

Not threatening enough, only Nat allies should be allowed to quietly whisper the nickname of Mana Daddy, his enemies will know him as the Mana Tyrant (it sounds cool btw)

Malestan

"So you guys can take rest from the story and me from you." Cerim, casually roasting his reader fan base xD I'm sure we must sometimes look like terrible attention seeking childrens, always looking for more of him ^^ More story, more questions,... Have a good rest bro, you deserved it aplenty

Baelmoul

Thx for chapter. Enjoy your break.

Sean Andrews

Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄

Sean Andrews

Tyftc

Greendalf

Please tell me Liss is getting a wyvern heart

Gutz

Ah dammit, I'm gonna miss those chapters.

RJ

He should have been nicknamed biscuit’s minion!

Benji

Thanks for the book! Enjoy your break!

Blaxxun

Enjoy the Holidays everyone!

Nemesis

Also, i love that the rumours have evolved into Dilligence destroying the armory in response to Eternal Courts folly

Nemesis

Wait, did Myrra always have 2 tails? It's been a while, and I didn't remember that. I thought only the matriarch had 2 tails

ED

Enjoy your break boss. See you all in a week!

arnumart

Why did the guy not call Nat Mana Daddy.

Anton

Thanks for the chapter! Have a great holiday!

James Skinner

Thanks for the chapter and have a great Christmas!

JennP

Enjoy your break, see you in the new year

Bladehawk256

Merry Christmas! Great chapter as always!

J W

3 months to s grade. Nice. Cant wait to see what reabsorbing the tree will do for nat

Gwiddion

I think it can ever only grow one tree the part that Nat embedded in the ground. As to his s rank my guess is that as he was quite close to s rank before his body upgrade with his new fragment and completed upgrade ruby gave him the rank. Also 3 s ranks are gone after Adrian killed 2 and left.

Arnon Parenti

Null King and Mana Tyrant, I love this ship for them.

Arnon Parenti

Probably sent someone from group 4 to sell the information for a few million shards.

TAMSC

I think they got his title wrong. It’s clearly The Mana Daddy.

Bartlomiej Głowacki

Finally the name will change to Primordial kittens.

Florin Cojocaru

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Nicolas

Happy holidays cerim, be safe and enjoy your rest!

ShinyOtter

Does the discord have a septajam emoji

Adrian Rake

😉

Adrian Rake

Have a nice break cerim and recharge your batteries. All the best and a Happy New Year everybody. See you all in January 2026. 🎄🎁🎉🎊

Damian Karis

Diligence is such an asshole for destroying the Armory, what a prick.

Ivan Jelenić

I'm guessing most are declared by their handlers. Maybe that's a core requirement to be a handler, being powerful enough to be able to declare someone an Absolute Candidate.

Apollo Greed

Man I was hoping it was Mana Daddy lol

Subliminary

Also would have been funny if his S rank nickname was Mana Daddy

Josh Betts

Considering how powerful dragons are portrayed in this verse wyvern probably got a ton of motion too and I think this is another hint (maybe) to the tree of Avalon as its basically pure magic(mana) it could feel like a bomb plus its a primordial tree in the primordial guild that would just be funny

dampsey damamme

TFTC ❤️ AND Happy Christmas and new year to you too

Subliminary

Merry christmas to all the crazy bastards here in the comments!

Nectar

Tftc

zoarian

Also, since a random dude knows about Nat's name - does it mean he stopped using his alias?

blaw

But wouldn't everone know than from the leader board?

jax rammus

Being teased is less fun that abstaining, also the man deserves a break dawg.

jax rammus

Fuuuuuck that ending was cold, shivers.

Ivan Jelenić

It's pretty scary when you're known for your mana in a primordial energies guild. Mana stronger than natural energies. And you have energies too, otherwise you couldn't enter the guild. Also finally S rank!

Michael Williams

So the fragment does grow trees haha. Pretty awesome that it I'd a giant mana battery of sorts. Keen to learn more! I love that Nats title is Mana Tyrant and he is an s rank now. But I'm curious what happened in the three month time skip, have they finished the 9th floor of the tutorial?? Cerim is such a tease. Love to all, merry christmas and happy new years. Cerim enjoy your break! 🙂

Arcanum

Thanks for all the great chapters this year and to the next, God Jul everyone 🙌

Ivan Jelenić

Nice chappy! So LissLiss thinks she can clear the 12th floor without a mana heart, when probably most Rulers couldn't. I wonder what the level of the floor boss and of Absolutes/Rulers is. I'm not sure if ~600 is strong or weak, it seems kinda weak for that floor. Maybe it's one of the weakest theres. I guess Absolutes are ~800? Then the floor boss should be ~1000, like stronger Rulers. But I guess at that stage it's about skills and energies and restored fragments (not fragments anymore, sparks?), not so much about levels.

Val the mysterious Jedi

Cerim you are the best, take all my 💰, I will also pay for a badass hell tutorial art book or corgi stuffed animal

WhiteLeeopard

Merry Christmas!

Fdrugc

I thought Lissandra and the cat lady were on the 13th floor also I'm surprised there are such weak monsters on the 12th floor.

Kroppertites

Merry christmas and enjoy the break!

Sushitrash

Happy Christmas 🎁! Enjoy your break man. Also am I the only one disappointed he is not being called the Mana Daddy? Tyrant is cool I guess... On another note, the tree is indeed some huge Mana battery/ Energy of sorts. Very nice 👍 Enjoy holidays everyone!

Isaac Lung

Is it a Christmas tree?

AL

Thanks for the chappy and enjoy your rest!

Lizy Flore

The guild masters of PK are always the strongest, Nyssa is currently the guild mistress for example, and all the actual work is being done by the local half-demon (?) vice-guild master.

Daf High-Voltage

Tftc! Nat is finally S rank, 👍🏾

Joe Woodhouse

I am so curious to know how many Beyond Tutorial attendees were declared Absolute Candidates *by the System* while still in the Tutorial. Seems like the sort of thing Kyralon would have noted when recording Nat receiving the declaration.

frankie doerr

Wait so nyssa made it to the 6th floor did she do it alone or did Nat participate

RadiantSpren

Aw wtf 4 chap/wk would have been way better, yall. Anyways, good chapter... even if a little short.

ibb606

I'm so excited for the future !!! Have a good break, and holidays!

zoarian

Mana Tyrant Hype! The crown must be truly crazy. He can regenerate most of his mana in a couple of heartbeats if he uses Ignition Heart conversion hack. Just how much mana does it have? I guess they will have a go at the next floor as the start of the next book. Marry Christmas, thanks for the chappies and enjoy your break! :)
