About this listen

Triumphing in the Guild Tournament, despite outside interferences, Nate has gained entry to the Etruan Royal University.

With his System Challenge over and a path to learning more about magic and the System he exists within, he is hoping for a quiet year or two during which he can grow. That growth however is drawing attention to him and unknown enemies lurk in the shadows, waiting for the opportunity to pounce.

Can Nate rise to the challenge, or will he finally meet his end at the hands of those that covet his gifts?

Spent to much time discussing stats and mental processes. Spending fifteen minutes going over a convoluted mental processes in the middle of a life and death fight ruined the flow of the fight

Not enough action

I loved this book, as always the magic was incredibly unique and interesting. The way everything connects is as always great, aside from a few simplistic story beats I have no notes. I look forward to the author continuing to hone their craft and continue to improve and I’m looking forward tot he next release.

Another great installment
