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!

NOTE: Back to the main story! More side chapters coming in the future too!

At first, following Grendel's trail was easy enough to do as its giant bulk forced the monster to destroy the great oaks, hornbeams, and maples that were in its path as it hiked up to higher ground. However, as the trees began giving way to a rockier terrain—allowing small patches of light to dart past the still-dense foliage—the trail I followed grew colder and colder because the wily beast's steps were unbelievably light to leave any imprints on the earth.

"How the Hel is something bigger than Doomsday this light-footed?" I wiped away the sweat coating my brow. "Could Grendel be smart enough to hide its traces…?"

Well, that was a worrying thought. If the beast I thought was prey also had a hunter's mind, I needed to be extra wary lest it turned around and hunted me before I found it.

"Baldr's balls," I cursed. "I'm not going out like Red Riding Hood."
