Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 69 - Affinity for Violence - Part One
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 69 - Affinity for Violence - Part OneWhile Pete and Suzy slept, Lash and I spent the night reading through translated cultivation manuals supplied by Gric and Sebet. Despite the size of the manuals, the written contents were best described as brief instructions or discussions of vague concepts. References to diagrams were uncommon yet tended to be straightforward and to the point.I learned that the contents of the manuals had...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 68 - Master of Dungeons - Part Two
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 68 - Master of Dungeons - Part TwoAs I had expected, Gric had two volunteers, a young man and one young woman, fully vetted by morning and awaiting my final approval.Inspecting the candidates' information revealed that they each possessed a different Class. Already familiar with the Swordsman and Spearman Classes, I found myself considerably more interested in the Alchemist and Daemonic Cultivator Classes belonging to the...
Next chapter is coming out later today!
Apologies, there are important elements in this chapter that kept me cycling through drafts to make sure I got them right.I was intending to take a small break at some point, so I guess I will take this coming weekend as a break and then return to the ORIGINAL release schedule of the weekend rather than mon/tues/wed >.< so the next release after this one (Sometime today) will be on the 23rd ish. (Edited because I dun goofed)If you have questions ...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 68 - Master of Dungeons - Part One
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 68 - Master of Dungeons - Part OneThe Dwergi had kept to their word and were making significant headway in both the constructions of their city and the grounds of the arena above. Sufficient progress had been made in constructing the arena to allow exhibition matches between the more eager and highly qualified contestants enrolled in the champion selection tournament. However, due to the exhibition matches not being an offici...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 67 - Cultivating the future - Part Two
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 67 - Cultivating the future - Part TwoThe fist-sized crystal in Zhu Wen’s hands was losing its lustre at an increasingly accelerated rate. Through observing Zhu Wen’s status, I learned that he was increasing his Chi in a similar manner of progression monsters accomplished with mana stones. The Racial Ability, Eternal Tao, had also ranked up several times. However, the sudden influx of energy appeared to have been more tha...

Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 67 - Cultivating the future - Part One
The underlined segment was added after the first upload.Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 67 - Cultivating the future - Part OneAbsently rubbing my forehead, I shuddered as I recalled the pain the Divine Patriarch's final desperation-fueled attack had inflicted. As acclimated as I had become to pain, the slash through my frontal lobe had been something entirely beyond the scope of my existing experiences.The only possible explanation I could think of that...
Announcement - A minor delay
I was having some freezing issues with my graphics card and it has unfortunately delayed things somewhat. I think I have it mostly fixxed now, but only time will tell. it was somewhat frustrating.At worst, I expect to be finished within the next 24 hrsMore art is incoming soon.
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 66 - A Monarch’s pride - Part Two
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 66 - A Monarch’s pride - Part TwoIf there had been any lingering doubts in my mind regarding the Divine Patriarch’s character, they evaporated after I witnessed the Divine Patriarch plunge his sword through the heart of his own subordinate. I assumed that the man had been mind controlled by Sebet, but he had shown that Sebet was not in complete control, coming up short of attacking his master.That distinction hadn’t mat...
Announcements
A couple of things this time.Chapter 66 part two is coming out sometime in the next hour or two after I give it another proofread. It was originally going to be released on Sat, but I changed my mind about something and wanted to try something. It should be pretty obvious once you start reading through the chapter.Let me know if you think the change works or not. It's intended more for specific moments and will only be used every now and agai...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 66 - A Monarch’s pride - Part One
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 66 - A Monarch’s pride - Part OneWaves of cold fury dominated my mind as I stared at the gold and crimson notifications fixed in front of my eyes. I had been only a handful of days, at most, from returning to my family and being able to relax. To have events take such an unexpected and dangerous turn was beyond infuriating.[ {Divine Patriarch ~ 10623} has issued a {Supremacy Challenge}. The Monarch has ( 23h 59m 37s ) to di...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 65 - By my authority - Part Two
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 65 - By my authority - Part TwoTaking no chances, I reinstated the default Command forbidding attempts of violence against my person and extended it to include Sebet as well. The Command nearly killed the captured Awakened when I seized control over his Enslavement. However, until I had a better idea of his character, I wasn’t leaving anything to chance.<He doesn’t appear to understand the intended context of the question...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 65 - By my authority - Part One
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 65 - By my authority - Part OneThe monotony of maintaining the Spatial Breach over such a prolonged period had given me ample opportunity to consider a functional alternative that wouldn’t require my direct involvement. Of course, in hindsight, it seemed obvious.A Breach-powered Gateway.Assuming the Spatial Breach Spell functioned the way I thought it did. It should be possible to make an artifice containing the Spatial Bre...
Next chapter (65 Part One) coming soon!
I got my time-scaling a bit off regarding something important (You will know what I mean when you read 65 Part Two) so it took a little longer to write up the difference after removing it.I don't want to say it will be fiished in like six hours, because that jynxes it every time without fail, but yeah...SOON.At least this means I have a chunk of writing ready for the next update xD
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 64 - Scions of nobility - Part Two
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 64 - Scions of nobility - Part TwoThe arrival of the Semenovian Queen, Katia, signalled a true beginning of the construction of the Semenovian port city and De-Facto capital for their Faction. Unlike her daughter, Katia abandoned her Water Mage Advanced Class and accepted the Pact Binder Advanced Class the moment the offer was presented to her.With the Queen prepared to take on the role of leading, or at least directing, the ...
Back from my break / Next upload soon.
Hi guys and gals, just letting you all know that I am back from my short break and that the next chapter should be up within the next twelve hours.There will be a minor timeskip coming up within a few chapters, or so but it should make sense when it happens.I'm glad I took this break when I did. My brother needed help moving house and I wouldn't have been in a position to help out if I wasn't on break. So thanks for the friendly nudge...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 64 - Scions of nobility - Part One
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 64 - Scions of nobility - Part OneRemotely checking in on Gric, I was relieved to find that he appeared to be alright. The death of his Summoned projection had been particularly gruesome and I had feared that some form of trauma would pass onto Gric himself.Reassured, I shifted my focus toward resettling the Felids.After taking on my true form and wearing a new set of clean clothes, I used my authority to return to Acheron.Th...
General Update
Hey guys and gals.TLDR: Made a continuity error, then had a minor medical issue, reealised I had made a continuity error, spent loads of time and got writers block correcting continuity error, now on track again. : /I appologise for the offschedule release. I had a minor eye infection that further comprimised my already bad vision and made it impossible to get any meaningful work done. I would have still made my usual deadline if I hadn't wri...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 63 - Duty and desperation - Part Two
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 63 - Duty and desperation - Part TwoTo say that the Asrusians were upset was a severe understatement. The Asrusians and Werrians had been fierce enemies for generations and hundreds of thousands of lives had been lost on both sides.The Asrusians saw no meaningful difference between the Semenovians and the Werrians, and to a certain extent, I had to admit that they had a point.The Semenovians had been annexed and integrated in...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 63 - Duty and desperation - Part One
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 63 - Duty and desperation - Part OneThe shocked and defeated expressions worn by the Duke and Duchess said it all. Whatever they had expected to find, it hadn’t been me.Sebet and Gric had alerted me to their preparations well in advance while I remotely modelled the reception hall in an isolated corner of the Demi-Plane. Their contingencies and trump cards were all accounted for.The Duke and Duchess were not to know, but th...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 62 - By other means - Part Two
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 62 - By other means - Part TwoEven with advance warning, the scale and severity of Gric’s telepathic assault on the Semenovian traitors caught me by surprise. I had expected Gric’s attack to paralyse them or perhaps momentarily stun them at most. Causing severe seizures was far outside of what I had anticipated.As surprised as I was, the Duke appeared to be ten times more so. I couldn’t help but think that he was attrib...

Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 62 - By other means - Part OneAN: I changed Tim’s undercover name a while back for the RR and SH release, due to it being too close to the character Tanner’s name at the time. Just as a heads up. It’s now Fharad.Determining suitable compensation for the families of the fallen proved incredibly difficult. Despite the objective value placed on the Evolution Elixirs and the special Classes unlocked from the Underlord promo...

Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 61 - Death and misery - Part TwoBy pulsing Barriers in time with the Liche’s attacks, I was able to descend the mountain and scale the wall unscathed. However, the Asrusian army was taking heavy casualties. Over a third of the army had already been killed outright by the Liche’s barrage of Spells.Making matters worse, the soldiers slain by the Liche’s Spells were rising as undead and preventing the Asrusians from rallyi...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 61 - Death and misery - 6 of 6
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 61 - Death and misery - 6 of 6With each step closer I took, a new alert appeared informing me that I had successfully resisted the Liche’s aura. All the same, I could feel a deep chill sinking into my flesh and settling into my bones. Keenly aware that if we were to fight for an extended period, my movements would only grow slower and more clumsy. I was entirely committed to ending the battle as quickly as possible.For all ...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 61 - Death and misery - 5 of 6
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 61 - Death and misery - 5 of 6Faine’s observation caught me momentarily off guard. However, after overcoming my shock, I realised that the walls of the inner fortress were far more ornate and decorative than a military fortress had any right to be.In hindsight, the prolific adornment of gargoyles and other statues on the battlements should have been a tipoff. Everything reminded me of the Mournbrent grand cathedral. Focusin...

Just an update :)
Aiming for the regular 7.5k release this Sat (My Sat)Going to be releasing one 2.5k chapter a day, starting today and ending Sat. Will probably be the end of the experimental releases. I had planned on giving it more time, but Covid kinda ruined that and shifted my priorities.Writing the chapters in smaller pieces has definitely been working out better for me overall. So I really don't mind compiling them for release. Just so long as my proof...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 61 - Death and misery - Part One
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 61 - Death and misery - Part OneThunder boomed ominously in the distance and a sudden rush of wind howled through the broken doorway and windows.Ushu’s bellowing roar drowned out the distant thunder and set the Werrians on edge.<We need to leave!> Gric and Sebet’s thoughts crashed into my own with reckless intensity, leaving me momentarily stunned.Numbly retreating outside, I ignored the swords of the Werrian soldiers and...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 61 - Death and misery - 3 of 6
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 61 - Death and misery - 3 of 6Within less than a fraction of a second, the barren land north of the wall was enveloped within an impenetrable hemisphere of darkness. Before the soldiers atop the wall had the chance to register what was happening, they were blasted by a sudden shift in atmospheric pressure.Just as quickly as it had appeared, the darkness receded and the towering remains of a Werrian fortress were left in its w...
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 61 - Death and misery - 2 of 6
Ogre Tyrant: Chapter 61 - Death and misery - 2 of 6Sebet’s description of the Spatial Breach Spell and its potential was enough to convince me it was worth a place in my Grimoire of Flesh. It probably wouldn’t be of much use in fighting the Liche directly. However, it would provide an emergency means of retreat if I still had the mana required to cast it.“Unfortunately, it is somewhat countered by the other Spell...” Sebet apologised with...
