Exactly." She beamed. "As for this foreboding feeling…we'll handle it. Together. As a family. Once the labyrinth breaks and we ascend to D-rank, we'll have your mom, Zeke, Andrew, and all their backup here with us. I'd like to SEE who can come snatch you out from under that kind of entourage."

Um, hi grandma, that's a pretty darkness you have there, um, please don't hurt me.
 
Awesome. This is definitely something to see. I am looking forward to seeing how things will change the consequences of Shane no longer being protected but now actually being out on his own. Cant wait to see more.
 
Yeah, I have to say I dont like this plot twist much. I am curious to see how it turns out but definitely not what I was hoping to see once he hit D rank.

Just got it thanks 😊
Quick question though, feel free to correct me in case I'm wrong but I'm confused about something
Why doesn't he make wishes for himself? Was it ever stated that the wishes have to be made for someone else? It just bugs me that he doesn't wish for things like knowledge or skills that could help him

It was explained that candidates with the Wish ability can't grant their own wishes, yes. However, they can still have other candidates grant wishes for them. There is a fair bit of Shane trying to figure out the rules and game the system.
 
I realise what has always bothered me about the slice of life dialogue, it is too sitcom like. The winking when making a joke about someone, like you have to tell them it is a joke everytime, same when Shane mentions in his head that it is a joke. The slice of life reads more like a script describing a scene from a sitcom than real people talking. BTW this isn't meant to be offensive but something about the dialogue during those moments has been bothering me for a while, dk if you remember my other comments about it

He grants wishes for other people, he can't make them from his own power.

Honestly, that's how me and most of my friends talked when we were that age (and still do). We picked up a lot of verbal tics from watching tv and we were all pretty intelligent and tended to think in those terms. Most of my conversations as a teenager sounded like they came from an episode of Buffy, because I binge watched it repeatedly and it had a serious impact on how I think and speak. I've heard similar complaints before, and it seems to be a case of YMMV. Some people just roll with it, and some people are like 'nobody talks like that', but the thing is, I talk like that, so its how I write lol. I'm sarcastic and I make quips and I jab at people because thats what I was exposed to growing up.

The rest of book 1 was put up for purchase on Amazon if I remember correctly. @Malcolm Tent you might want to put a link at the end of chapter 4 so people know where to go since this question is asked fairly often.

Pretty sure I DID lol but I'll double check. There was a note on it in the chapter, but no link. I added that, though I'm not sure it'll help since people don't seem to be READING the explanation note to begin with.

The toppest of keks. They probably just see the chapter gap and immediately comment instead of A: checking chapter 4, or B: looking to see if there's a threadmark about it. Which I did check for after my previous post.

Maybe it's a mobile issue but I clicked the extras threadmark before posting anything. It leads nowhere.

It's not in extras lol, its an AN at the end of chapter 4 where it cuts off. I think the extras post got deleted when I stubbed a later book, sorry. I'll add something new./
 
I think you should get this published as an actual novel. I'm a newcomer so I don't know if you did. Some litrpg novel has been getting the webcomic adaptation treatment. One example is Primal Hunter. Be advised, they amy change things up to spice the story up.

I appreciate that, and yeah, the first six are on amazon and the first four on audible. Webcomics are super expensive sadly, though it is something I'm interested in and have looked into.
 
How are you pumping out so many chaprers?
 
Ah, the time honor traditions of beating up your apprentice.
