Chapter 837 – Tunnelling

I’m not really wearing armour. It’s more jewellery than anything else. Which isn’t something I wanted to point out to Smithant. She takes immense pride in being a smith, specifically in being an armourer, since she doesn’t make weapons. In fact, she takes an unhealthy amount of pride in that, such that pointing out how she has basically made what …

Chapter 836 – New Bling

Our plans made, the council disperses, Vibrant disappearing over the horizon before I can so much as blink. Although… that could be a long measure of time, since I can’t blink. I’m actually starting to forget what it was like to close my eyes, to be honest. I mean, how long can you go without eyelids before you forget how …

Chapter 835 – Fancy Stylin’

The meeting dragged on for another hour before a reasonable plan of action of attack was determined. We had to consult Al fairly frequently throughout the process, trying to determine exactly what is and isn’t allowed in a formal war between demon cities. In the process we got a bit of an overview on the history and practical application of …

Chapter 834 – Council Meeting

As I watch the disc containing Brixin and her cohort of demons fly back to Orpule I breathe a sigh of relief. That was close, too close! We might have been able to win, but most likely only with the sacrifice of many, many lives and that is a price I am simply not willing to tolerate. My siblings will …

Chapter 833 – Diplomacy

Seriously? Another demon city lord showing up now?! What did I do to deserve this? Seriously! The new arrival looks down on us and the half-consumed remains of Grokus with an imperious gaze that does little to make me think this encounter is going to end peacefully. She appears to be a type of demon that I haven’t seen before, …

Chapter 832 – Fallout

The immediate fallout from defeating the city was a little odd as an experience. The remaining demonic residents of Roklu were a little bewildered by the whole experience, and some were less than pleased at being ruled by monsters from so much higher in the Dungeon than they themselves, but those opinions were soon changed by the overwhelming numbers and …

Chapter 831 – Confronting our demons pt 8

The closer I look, the more certain I am. It isn’t much, a scratch under any other circumstances, but considering that Grokus has managed to keep himself entirely pristine for the duration of this fight, something has definitely changed. [You know, I don’t think I will, surrender that is. I have a suspicion that things might just be turning to …

Chapter 830 – Confronting our demons pt 7

In desperation, I turn the final stages of forming the gravity bomb over to my main mind, the only brain I have that specialises in handling gravity mana. I can immediately feel the difference, but I still need the support of the sub-minds to keep things flowing as I continue to piece together the biggest bomb I’ve ever made. When …

Chapter 829 – Confronting our demons pt 6

That’s right dear readers! I ventured where so few have dared to tread! Within the heart of the nest itself! Of all the exotic locations I have plumbed over the years, all the dangers I have braved and risks I have taken, I have to say that this, this was not like those.A part of me wants to say it …

Chapter 828 – Confronting our demons pt 5

Invidia and Allocrix hovered above the fray and looked down on the wreckage below them. In the midst of the billowing clouds of dust and smoke stood Mongu’nin, the massive demon’s frame covered in wounds that already showed signs of healing. “AHHHHHHHH!” the mighty demon roared to the heavens with a feral grin plastered across his face. “I KNEW YOU …
