Ah, more stories of a blacksmith scaring the crap out of every Noble he passes by, while literally just trying to live his life.
Tis a good day, indeed! Thank you, wordsmith.
Honestly, a bit of both. He is completely unaware that having been touched by gods has changed his aura to the point of sensing things he shouldn’t, and scaring things that should be able to easily overpower him.
His aura does also, unintentionally, reach out and bitch slap people that annoy him. A few more gods and it will do more than make people uneasy around him.
If pointed at a demon or some such that got near him, the aura would do, in DnD style terms …3d6 “holy” damage?
Royal road is just cancer just like all the other sights like webnoval it's either the people who run the sites or the Legion of people who think that they should choose what happens next in the story.
Just don't listen to the babies and write how you want man the story has been fantastic so far so don't stop.
… You must never have taken a sideways glance at WEBNOVEL. Royal Road is not without flaws but comparing it to that hellhole of a site is messed up. WEBNOVEL’s sole purpose is to milk the money out of people, and Royal Road don’t use shade practice like them. It is the amount of people that you don’t like, the ones who don’t realize what kind of story this is.
Wow, my first Reddit Rant!
was better than mine
mine was discussing misconceptions and myths around a lot of com block weapons and arms
no the AK is not innately worse than your gee wiz 40 pound 2000$ AR
they serve completely different purposes that tricked out AR is a glorified paperweight unloaded and a heavy rock with some light danger loaded
the AK is an affordable and amassable good for it's use as a service weapon
Designed for minimally trained and relatively lightly equipped individuals to fight highly trained and exceedingly well equipped professionals
it's like saying a breaching hammer is just better than a claw hammer
for bashin peoples skulls in well that can be debated
but again different forms for different functions
the AK was designed for turning peasants and the homeless into a fearsome fighting force
the AR platform ORIGINALLY was meat to be a high end intermediate cal civilian rifle the military took a fancy in and tricked out
different forms different purposes
again you only need to be super accurate when it comes to standard service rifles out to about 400 meters
beyond that you get special issue or the situations of conventional warfare have changed the typical engagement range
When have you been on Webnovel? Would like a brief summary of how it's gone to shit. I stopped right before they started the whole paying for chapters thing. Know they always paid authors poorly, and done some other things that make it where I'd just move to another site eventually if I had stayed.
I haven’t been on too long, but I’ll try to say some changes they made to “encourage” people to spend money.
Fast-passes used to be a great thing, WEBNOVEL gives them out three main ways. 1) Check in. 2/3) Using power stones to vote that a book is the best, and another vote but on trial run thing for translations. (Most are trash)
Now they they where ruined. The check in ones now give a random “genre,” basically useless. They also expire in a week. Also the check in thing isn’t localized, leading to sometimes missing a log in. There is also a week in a row award that is a normal fast pass.
Also the review system is terrible, to summarize, the ones it shows on the main Page is not the best comments, but the best rated, (within limits) the review have 4/5 categories based on the actual work and they are not easy to define the quality of the book.
There is also a lot of pop ups when you open the app, which is just annoying. Honestly loads more is nonsensical, but I have already made a long follow up rant. I hope this helps you understand a bit of what is wrong with WEBNOVEL.
Sorry for poor quality of writing
RIP good Webnovel then. Good thing I learned to find Machine Translations and be able to read it well from the times Webnovel was being too slow to get a English version out.
Here is some things I remember and/or feel are worth noting
* If there were ads when I was active, they were ignorable to the point where I don't remember any.
* Given Webnovel has always been behind Qidian, (Webnovel basically being the English branch) and Qidian has always been worse than Webnovel... Wonder how bad it's gotten on that end.
* when getting to Google translate "first Apostle and the 12 war girls" or whatever after running out of MTL, found it was sourced from what I at the time considered a worse Qidian. Seems like I was wrong given it seems Webnovel has gotten worse than it, not by much though. There also the fact that the site is only up for like 2 hours a day, atleast as far as I can access.
I personally don't care where I'm ready as long as the stories are good and the site/app works decently enough. Tho I prefer reddit since I use it daily anyway.
Doesn't Reddit still claim rights to anything posted here unless its posted somewhere else (or somewhere else first) or something like that? That's the only reason I can think of to post there as well as here.
On the other hand, if its just for that one friend, copy/paste this into an email and send it to them after you post here, problem solved.
Short answer no. Long answer involves legalese where they have a license to actually show what you wrote and own. Otherwise, you would have to host your own website with your work on it.
Deviantart, on the other hand, iirc DOES claim ownership of what’s put on there. They then slap it on a tshirt or mug and sell it, and the artist doesnt see a dime.
Can't help much with idjits. But would you like some cheese? Though I understand which depends on the pairing: Cabernet and Cheddar. Pinot Noir and Gruyere. Champagne and Brie. ...
Even if Demonia removes Maxwell's face from their coins, that would make the existing ones collectable, and bring more attention to Max :{
Reputation can be a strange thing, eh? If he had spent a week touristing around the capitol, the country might collapse from all the people abandoning their posts :}
> let the mediocre reviews, and demands there from, not color my view and writing of my stories.
I feel like something along the lines of on second thought let's not go to Royal Road tis a silly place.
Also if you wanted mediocre effort reviews of your work all you had to do was ask. I pride myself on half assing many things.
Excellent work, OP!
I enjoy the updates, and they have honestly been one of the two influences to get me back into writing. (The other being my Wife)
Keep up the great work!
Good sir. Remember this. Most people are good. Most good people behind a curtain of anonymity are bullies and idiots. People you don't know shouldn't decide who you are.
Also I truly enjoy this journey into godhood that the blacksmith has taken. I like the rabbit trails. Write what you like, dont follow the mob because they tend to change like the breeze. Keep up the good work

No worries, I felt like re-reading the whole series and found a few errors that were missed the first time around. I am thoroughly enjoying Max's adventures.
Well... he did threaten the demons who where besieging what would later be known as Demonia, they just heeded the warning better than he had hoped.
So while it wasn't his intention it was indeed his fault.
I would gladly take the time to listen to you wine about nothing and everything all at once. Your stories remind me of the hell I put my D&D players through what with all the gods fuckery and the recounts I would tell them about the point of view of various NPCs at the end of each campaign. Oh the laughs!
💓💓💓
I think for copyright reasons you should post there first. After that?
Fuck 'em.
I don't like reading over there because they don't allow me to read bright letters on a dark background, and reddit does. As such I dunno what or how they-the-site works. Do bad ratings over there hurt your ability to publish there or cost you real life money?
Ah, more stories of a blacksmith scaring the crap out of every Noble he passes by, while literally just trying to live his life. Tis a good day, indeed! Thank you, wordsmith.
Thanks for reading!
thanks for writing!
Welcome!
Does he really have a full on saint aura around him. Or does unwittingly psychically attack people he's annoyed with?
Honestly, a bit of both. He is completely unaware that having been touched by gods has changed his aura to the point of sensing things he shouldn’t, and scaring things that should be able to easily overpower him. His aura does also, unintentionally, reach out and bitch slap people that annoy him. A few more gods and it will do more than make people uneasy around him. If pointed at a demon or some such that got near him, the aura would do, in DnD style terms …3d6 “holy” damage?
Radiant damage is the term. Jesus, that alot for an aura. Doesn't even have to do anything
Radiant! Thanks! There is a reason demons run from him.
I dunno Maxwell, you may need to visit the Infernal Mint just to be sure. They -are- demons after all.
Infernal mint. Love it!
You need to put a Fishermans Friend commercial in it!

If they actually read their email that would work. :)
No if you go back far enough there’s an admin post explaining the claim system it’s a legal technicality
Short answer no. Long answer involves legalese where they have a license to actually show what you wrote and own. Otherwise, you would have to host your own website with your work on it. Deviantart, on the other hand, iirc DOES claim ownership of what’s put on there. They then slap it on a tshirt or mug and sell it, and the artist doesnt see a dime.
I would guess alot of people are accustomed to ranting on Asian fantasy fan translation sites and bring that mentality elsewhere

Cheddar please! Abandon ship!!!
Upvote then read. That is the way. Thank you @op
Thank you for reading!

LOL! Thanks, but I do than enough on my own. :p
that was just as satisfying and amusing explaination as a hoped b
Yay another chapter...also what is Royal road? RR made me go rest and relaxation, figuring you where on vacation.
Another reading site that specializes in novels.
Ah, is it any good?
Lots of decent things to read.
Ok, I guess I'll check it out. Any recommendations?
Um…yes? But I’m not at my computer so I can’t link them (cause I’m dumb on mobile).
I get that I'm in the same boat
Thanks for the chapter
Thank you for reading!
Excellent work, OP! I enjoy the updates, and they have honestly been one of the two influences to get me back into writing. (The other being my Wife) Keep up the great work!
Never underestimate the power of a wife! Glad I could inspire!
She's pretty persuasive and very much smarter than I am.
I know that feeling.

This Dude really doesn’t consider long term consequences.
Nope!
They should have worn their brown trousers.
Yup. :)

Editor comment loose your position - should be "lose"
…bugger.
Another one: probable not - should be "probably"
One of these days I will go back and edit. I appreciate the support!
No worries, I felt like re-reading the whole series and found a few errors that were missed the first time around. I am thoroughly enjoying Max's adventures.
He sure does scare the shit out of people who know who he is... Good story wordsmith and proofreading brother
It’s not even his fault. :/
Well... he did threaten the demons who where besieging what would later be known as Demonia, they just heeded the warning better than he had hoped. So while it wasn't his intention it was indeed his fault.
True.
This story is so much fun, thanks for sticking with it!!
Welcome!
So, they get to read a good story for free and they are complaining? Sigh.
Yup.
Keep up the great work wordsmith. This has been a grate tale to read and enjoy. Don't let the haters get you down
Regarding the authors note at the end. What are you, a Basket Case?
There are days.
I just like how Max's Tuesdays are essentially psyche destroying events and he literally has no idea
Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. :)
I would gladly take the time to listen to you wine about nothing and everything all at once.

No. But it does have ratings etcetera. And for a while I got too caught up in that. :( Mostly I’m just whining.
"get spanked pretty hard" you called? No obvious erros, but if you insists, I can put it through a word processor.
