Okay, I finished writing the chapter 108 of The odds were never in my favour, which is titled The Unplanned Task.

The betaed version and the update on fanfiction.net will likely arrive next week.

Hope everyone will enjoy it, we're near the end of Arc 4 (and Fourth Year), I have not abandoned my hope to finish this Arc in 2023 (and yes, that means 5 chapters, not counting this one, for 2023).

Now for the announcements.

I'm going to take a break of one week between Sunday 23 and Sunday 30. It is getting way too hot where I live, and in the afternoon (where I usually do most of my writing during a year) I'm not really able to follow my schedule (most of my writing is done in the morning these days, as temperatures stay 'reasonable').

The goods news for you is that before that, I'm beginning a new chapter of an Impractical Guide to Godhood (chapter 21, to be accurate) tomorrow.

I hope I will have it finished by next Wednesday-Thursday. 

As a consequence, you readers on patreon will get the unbetaed chapter of pure madness for chapter 21, and all readers on the other sites where I update will get The odds 108 betaed and An Impractical Guide chapter 20 betaed next week.

Until next time...

Bests,

Awesome! I am definitely looking forward to the fallout of everything once they reach Venice. And as an aside, I have no idea how you could wrap up this fourth year within the 5 chapters. It seems like it should take far longer than that since it is still only February. But I am eagerly anticipating the next chapters and how things will turn out.

Welp, looks like I’m going to be late to work today.

So… I just want to say the Morrigan won the lottery with Alexandra. Any other possible champion would have faltered at this point.

Welp, that's a revelation alright. Thanks to the wordsmith!

Honestly, the fight with Alexander feels too easy, but I guess we've been seeing them go up against the likes of Ra, so a thirty years old king isn't that impressive in comparison. Also, I have a sneaking suspicion we'll have a time skip after the dust settles in Venice, just to let the world settle down a lil bit.

Masterfully done ! I can only eargerly await for the dust to settle and to see how the world at large will react once the nuclear bomb is disarmed. Kudos for how the Prime Minister dealt with Fudge, it made me smile like a lunatic.

Another very well done chapter. Fallout from the duel on the bridge is still falling and this time Dumbledore will be hit full frontal, because he decided to protect a traitor and mass murderer from the typical outcome of these things. The additional reason for Ra's and Osiris' strength and longevity is a nice touch, even if I think, that Eleonora got it wrong with who is what. The told pattern tells me that it is Ra that has the Great Enemies Soul and Osiris is the Control Seal. Not that it truly matters in the end. Ra has a Prophecy on his head and like all prophecies it will come true. And either it will take Osiris' heroic sacrifice to make it stick or he will be weak enough in the immediate aftermath for Death to finally claim him. I doubt Osiris will truly outlive his brother. That said putting the rest of that schoolyear into 5 chapters is .... optimistic. It will take at least a chapter to deal with the situation at Venice. And Ra is bound to escape that place, play Hiob for a day before ultimately trying to rebuild his forces, but that can happen elsewhen. Then I have the feeling that at least two full chapters would have to exist just to come to grips with the immediate aftermath, which would consist of the Champions with each other, with Alexandra and her friends, with Alexandra and Morgane in their new apprenticeship, then the Exchequer internals and the world at large.

But Ra is a lying liar who lies! And wasn’t it suggested in an earlier chapter that the brothers specialties or affinities were switched?!? If anything it feels like the board is being shaken or reset, but that some pawns and mid-level pieces are being removed i.e. Dumbledore, Merlin, Alexander… for replacement with newer, shinier and upgraded pieces like Alexandra, Lyudmila, and others… I also feel like Lyudmila’s background is being purposefully obscured for a nice little bombshell at a future date… only because so much information is dropping that the Champions powers aren’t denying right now that it feels like you could read the story multiple times and come away with new questions each time and the it seems like the Champions choose individuals with leadership and lineage in their respective histories.

Gonna admit this "mysterious" endboss revelation did not go well as far as I am concerned. Mostly because the explanation given so far doesn't make a lot of sense. Basically the brothers need to be kept alive so the "soul" of the original enemy doesn't recover its strength and gets ready for round 2? A very odd seal since soul destroying effects have already been introduced both in canon and this AU. Just seems weird when there is a literal champion of death listening to the tale. If there is anybody that can kill the unkillable it should be Alexandra. Aside from that I liked the chapter, though the liberal use of Orichalcum seemed a bit heavy Handed. Even with an Artifact that somehow makes the stuff there is too much. I am fascinated by the Devaa. My understanding was that combine Light and Dark magic was a no go so something that is both seems very very strange. Are there explanations in setting for them ?

Thanks for the chapter. It was great fun and I want to share my thoughts. 1) "Death really hates everyone who chooses to follow the Archmage of Light. Rejoice, oh Conqueror, for you largely qualify." That sounds very much like, "I am the Ranger. I hunt monsters. Tremble for you qualify." If Alexandra is building that story Ra should tremble and Dumbledore is doomed. 2) I hope we will get to see the Prime Ministers reaction when his search for answers about magic gets to someone competent and they explain that Dumbledore can't be arrested because if he resists arrest the Ministry would lose the resulting fight. 3) I take the description of what all is going on in the world as confirmation of what I said a number of chapters ago. When the Exchequer convinced Alexandra to go along with their scheme to restore magic to the world she was played. The muggle world would have been much better off with Ra unleashing a plague and the Statue staying in effect. 4) I've got lots of speculation based on the revelations from The Conqueror but I don't actually trust a word he said and speculating based on probable lies seems a waste of time. Thanks for all your hard work!

I really want to know for who Malatesti is really working because clearly he needed the arc of convenance and he was ready to fight the others champion for his mission. Even if now that it was remade as the arc of death it was for nothing because miss Potter have destroyed unknowingly another plan (she is better to cause Chaos than Lyudmila tbh). Any idea about what's happening with him and what was his mission ?

Thanks for the new chapter, and try to stay cool. Best of luck to you. Very interesting revelations, and as one commenter said, Morrigan must be very proud of her Champion.
