Kal’s class, divine, wasn’t the curse he originally feared. Not only could Kal dive deeper into dungeons thanks to his healing ability, but his experience gains were higher than usual, and the new spells/...

Kallan even applied to become a medical technician in a small town clinic to stay out of the limelight. The plan was solid, right until his name became the talk of the town. Defeating the end boss of the Misty Fields dungeon was unavoidable since it was the only...

Yesterday, dying from his grueling job. Today, a champion of an entire kingdom. Togashi was already dying from the fumes destroying his lungs, so it made perfect sense to take the blame when his friend killed someone in self-defense.

The world could still wind up in jeopardy, because Elasha’s sister...

You probably shouldn’t do it, but Dungeon Depot can help. Maxi Kennedy had a typical day. He was working on his uncle’s house flip when he tried to turn an electrical outlet the right way, forgot to turn off the breaker, received a shock, and woke up in a tiny town with only two houses, a dungeon he mistook for a miniature golf course, and, oddly enough, a store named Dungeon Depot.

Maxi was beyond shocked, ...

No one deemed the orcs a threat until they swept across Aliria, conquering every city and town in their path. Their warlocks cursed the lands to slow crop growth to a crawl, and every capable magi was executed while the survivors looked on in horror. Julian’s parents included.
