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!

Adventure Academy

By 'Horn' six hundred, I took off my blue mage's robe because it was so soaked in sweat that it was messing with my form. I kept my inner shirt on though, because, surprisingly, there were still people training in Studio Three with me.

When I took off my robe, I had a second to catch my breath and then noticed that I wasn't alone anymore. It wasn't just the four members of the last group either, but even Saga, Ophelia, and Draken had taken up their corners of the training area. They were swinging greatswords in the air, stabbing into target dummies, or redoing another round with a Divah clone.

I also noticed that Divah changed the environment so that our movements were no longer impeded by Mímisbrunnr's waters. Instead, I saw a starry night sky above me, with the full moon casting a glow on a vast desert.
