Explore the realmsverse, battle monsters of myth and legend, die trying... and then come back to life stronger with the advantage of hindsight! Rinse and repeat.

Death holds no power over Will Wisdom, a boy who’d once been sacrificed to the altar of the gods of death only to reincarnate moments later. Will’s a teenager stuck with Extra-Life, a curse that lets him relive the same day of every death with all the gruesome details of his latest demise intact to help him survive in his next run of whatever realm, dungeon, or adventuring class he’s decided to challenge next.

Returning to life after each harrowing encounter is a useful hack for a teenager enrolled in the legendary Academy, a school that teaches young adventurers to become the kind of heroes who chase after the big monster bounties and uncover the great mysteries of the Realmsverse. Mysteries such as finding the cult of evil ljósálfar who’d cursed Will with Extra-Life in the first place, and then exacting his revenge on these bright elf bastards! 

The Academy is the perfect place for Will to achieve his hopes and dreams too. Assuming he does well in Swords and Sorcery, Apprentice Alchemy, Dungeon Excursions, P.E., and a whole host of crazy training courses in his novice schedule. Will may need a little help with that. 

Welcome to the Academy, Will Wisdom—hope you live to see graduation day!

*** Aside from daily chapter releases, I will release extra chapters every Sunday depending on power stones earned during the same week. 200 stones = 1 additional chapter!

Seconds ticked by, but no one could give her the answer. Not even Liara or her fellow journeymen, which I thought was disappointing. Well, I admit that I also had a hard time figuring this out in my previous life when our dökkálfar instructor asked me this question. I did solve it though, but it took time and a bit of luck. 


I had accidentally caught sight of the wriggling mass on the maenad queen's brow and received an epiphany. In this run, I pointed the object out to everyone as if I'd known the answer all along. 


"Royalty often has two symbols of power, but in this case, it's just one," I answered like a know-it-all. "Her crown. Duh." 


Cue the indignant glares mixed with very few nods of appreciation. Man, I was good at riling people up. 


"It seems Mr. Wisdom is determined to show you all up repeatedly during this excursion," Mistress Lorelai commented. "His discovery. His strategy, and perhaps, his kill to claim."
