So just as I said before, most of the chapters are removed from RR. The full first volume (aka Prologue+22 chapters) was here for three days and those most interested in the series and fast enough have read it already. I warned about the eventual removal of the story two weeks ago, so my conscience is clear. :)
You can still read the story on Amazon, for free if you have Kindle Unlimited (it should take some time before it gets approved, though). I have explained the reason for this decision before. I placed my older author notes here for new people.
From Chapter 17:
Anyway, things are going rather well on Amazon, from the first day sales I currently have there's a high chance that Left Out will be more popular than Dwarf Smith was. For this reason I want to go for Kindle Unlimited, so people could read it for free if they have subscription, and also because it will be beneficial long-term. And it means that I'd need to take over the story from RR. Still, I don't want to be unfair to all of you who've already started to read story on RR and aren't invested enough or rich enough to actually buy it. So I plan to post the rest of the chapters of the first volume (up until chapter 22) in the next couple of weeks before deleting chapters. In the future, I'll most likely post chapters for the second volume as well, so if you're patient enough you can still read the entire story for free, eventually, as long as you don't miss new releases.
If you want to read the rest of the book ahead of other people and/or want to support me, you can buy the book on Amazon:

If you encounter this narrative on Amazon, note that it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.
BTW, I'll post another chapter soon. It's not good to leave you waiting in the middle of a fight.
With best regards,
Constantin.
From Chapter 22:
Thank you for reading this story so far! This is where the first volume ends (though there's also an Epliogue/Bonus Interlude in the ebook release). This is by no means the end of the entire story and I know that even as an end to a volume it's kind of "meh". Initially it was supposed to be just the middle of the first volume, but the first story-arc (aka Kobold Nest arc) ended up being too long for my tastes so I decided to split it into two parts and release them one by one. I kind of regret this decision now, but what's done is done. This is why the first volume kind of lacks actual climax or plot twists, unfortunately.
It would be a while before the second volume is released here on RR. Most likely I'll post a couple of new chapters as a teaser before release on Amazon, but it would be at least a few months before I publish it here fully (most likely just before the third volume's release. which I'm not sure when happens).
BTW, there're a couple of chapters available on Patreon and there's going to be more soon. I hope that you enjoyed reading this book despite it's obvious flaws—I try to improve as a writer with each new book, after all.
As I said a couple of chapters ago, most chapters soon would be deleted from here soon after chapter 22 is released. I decided to keep it here until the next week, I hope that most people interested in the story will read it in the meantime.
I hope that no one is offended by my decision. Eventually I'll publish the rest of the story here on RR as new volumes are released, but it will take a while. Here's an amazon link, just in case. You can also get the full first volume on my Patreon (and some advance chapters from the second volume).
