Advised to keep away from the approaching war, Wu Ying will have to decide what is more important – his journey to immortality or the ties to the mortal that he holds onto still.

Back from the Treasure Hunt, it’s time to explore Earth a little more…

But first, Jake has a family to visit and an auction to attend. Then it’s time to face the challenges the planet has to offer, and using the many rewards from the Treasure Hunt, Jake aims to improve his repertoire while getting some more levels under his belt.

And what could be a better idea than invading a massive termite hive to craft a new weapon using the extremely powerful curse of resentment from an ancient vampire land? Yeah, nothing could possibly go wrong with that. Ancient curses are well-known for being harmless, after all.

Assuming all goes well – which it surely will – Jake has one more challenge he must face. Perhaps his most dangerous one yet.

That’s right, it’s back-to-school season.

School in this case being an ancient Order worshipping a Primordial snake god.

Now in D-grade, Jake prepares to face even stronger foes: poo-flinging monkeys, even bigger mushrooms, and the most dreaded of all: politics…

The first World Congress approaches, allowing all the forces on Earth to finally meet, reuniting friends and enemies alike. Of course, to Jake, this World Congress is just a good way to finally catch up with old friends as he lets others deal with all the annoying politics, trying to not get involved.

Unless he wants something, that is.

The World Congress reveals more opportunities in the future for Jake and the other denizens of Earth to take part in, making them all begin their own preparations. To make sure Jake is up to the challenge, he must find stronger prey to get those sweet, sweet levels under his belt. Luckily for him, the death of a hated mushroom revealed a prime hunting ground: A Dungeon.

The first major system event has arrived as all the major factions of Earth converge…

Yalsten, an old cursed land once occupied by ancient vampires, but now long forgotten, finds itself the grounds for the system event known as a Treasure Hunt.

Follow Jake as he and the rest of his fellow Earthlings compete and cooperate in uncovering the secrets of this ancient land while naturally acquiring any and all of that sweet, sweet loot. But not without trouble.

The ancient defenses still stand between Jake and his rightful bounty, the cursed land itself rising in opposition against the invaders. Vampires of old who have long been dormant are awakened from their slumber, with each one appearing only stronger than the one before. By that logic, Jake truly hoped for a proper final boss of this event; the only question was…

Would he find the ultimate challenge from the vampires or his fellow man?

Enjoying his time in the evil Order of the Malefic Viper, Jake finds himself unprepared as Earth calls…

Out of nowhere, Jake gets his alchemy training interrupted as he is forced back to the first universe to deal with a sudden emergency. Earth has been invaded by another Chosen with plans that do not include a fair fight, assisted by natives unsatisfied with the status quo.

The feeble political balance on Earth is shattered as factions take advantage of the sudden turmoil to exercise the wills of their gods. War breaks out, and every force finds themselves implicated one way or another.

On his way to face the enemy Chosen, Jake explores parts of Earth he has never seen before, makes new allies, gets to know more of the Malefic Viper’s most treasured secrets through incredibly invasive visions of the past, improves his abilities, and gets plenty of those sweet, sweet levels.

But before all that… it’s time to dispense justice upon the most evil beings in all of existence: Mushroom Men.

With only one Challenge Dungeon Left, Nevermore is quickly winding to an end...

The Nevermore Leaderboards competition has gathered more attention than perhaps in any era prior, with gods getting both directly and indirectly involved to see who will eventually come out on top.

Jake, who has so far been performing above all expectations, enters his final Challenge Dungeon before it’s time to meet up with his party once more. Together, they’ll make a final push to try and climb as many floors as possible before time is up and, hopefully, in the end, find their names atop the Nevermore Leaderboards.

However, the competition is tough. Jake and his party aren’t the only ones performing far above expectations. Ell’Hakan, the self-proclaimed rival of Jake, has set himself up to rival or even shatter all records prior, aiming for the top spot himself.

In the end, who will prove themselves the top C-grade of their generation?

And, perhaps more importantly to Jake, will there be a forced after-party following the Leaderboards reveal?
