Chapter 62: Demon Sebastian 4
Ugh!
Kwang Kwang!
In the basement of the mountain range between the Nair river and the plains of northern Rakan .
Dozens of golems and hundreds of monsters were digging hard .
They were building the underground channels according to Luke’s directions .
The stone golems were punching down the hard rocks . The wood golems and the other monsters were using large shovels and sacks to carry the debris out .
‘Huhuhu! The people would probably be surprised if the underground waterway from the river gets dug like this, right?’
Luke was watching from behind and smiled .
He was going to draw the water and then say that he had found groundwater .
There was one reason for the effort and the excuse he was using .
If the water came up suddenly, people would surely think that it was strange .
The best way to spoof them was to show that water from the ground had naturally been found .
‘If I gain more power in the future, I can put the golems to work openly maybe?’
Luke had no plans to do things secretively like he was currently doing .
But since the trust that his retainers had on him was weak, he didn’t want to reveal his strength .
Whatever was the situation, Luke was trying to solve the water problem, which had been the biggest obstacle for the land, he left the golems and the monsters to work and went to the corner of the mountain .
He looked around to see if anyone was around there and then began to draw a series of magic circles on the ground .
‘Since I have some strength, I can start a new practice . ’
New practice .
The same kind of practice that he had done in his days as a warlock .
Summon demons, fight demons and take away the powers of the demons .
He decided to start practicing because he had to build up a little more power for the upcoming war .

“I’ll create a magic circle for summoning and then…”
Luke did dark magic using the sword that was dangling on his waist . He squeezed his hand until his blood flowed out of it .
Normally warlocks use beasts or other humans’ blood to perform a summoning, but Luke and the other warlocks who did Darkness didn’t opt for that .
Luke thought that it was morally wrong to sacrifice another being for their own strength .
‘A wizard’s blood has to be there as an offering when summoning . Sufficient spirit needs to be instilled with mana and Magi . ’
Demons normally like blood and one’s spirit .
When Luke’s blood dropped on the Demon Summoning Circle, the glimmering light from the circle began to react almost immediately .
Whhooong!
Once the magic circle disappeared, a dark subspace opened . An ugly demon with a thick muscular body and a huge horn protruding from its head was standing there .
“Kukuk, human! What is it that you want? Whatever is it that you want, you need to give me your soul for it!”
The Demon Volk spoke with a lot of pride to Luke who seemed like a warlock .
Normally, the warlocks fall on to the floor trembling . However, the human in front of him was different .
“What do I want, huh? I want the abilities that you have and your Magi . ”
“What?”
At that very moment, Volk had a ridiculous look on his face .
What on earth was the man even thinking asking a demon its abilities and Magic when the demon did nothing wrong?
As he was still confused at what he had been asked, Luke began to show his skill .
Flash!
“Kwaaak!”
Luke used lightning magic, and the Demon Volk screamed out of pain .
“This… this warlock would be too cold for me to even eat!”
With anger clearly showing on his face, he hurried over to Luke with arms wide open .

Puong! Pung!
The demon’s clenched fists cracked the floor causing the floor to burst out .
Luke had avoided the attack from the demon and with one hand he used magic and his sword in the other .
‘Kaaak! What is this guy?’
As his attack failed, Volk became frustrated .
His attacks were so good that he was even praised by Experts back where he came from, but the warlock in front of him had escaped his attack .
In addition, Luke was using magic as well as a sword to attack him—a demon .
“Who… who the hell are you?”
Volk asked Luke to identify himself, and Luke responded .
“Me? I don’t know if you have ever heard about me before, but I am Saymon, who had summoned demons 500 years ago . ”
“Say, Saymon!”
Volk immediately remembered the rumors that he heard in the Devildom long ago .
Occasionally, the summons to the land increased and the higher demons liked it .
It was because they could enjoy killing and destroying lands .
The problem was that none of the higher demons who had gone to the human world had ever made it back alive .
The demons were all later shocked by the fact that they were summoned by a warlock .
“There is a human warlock who hunts demons and their Magi! If he summons you, don’t respond!”
And after some time, they finally knew who this warlock was .
It was the Warlock Saymon!
“Ha, but you don’t look like a man who is over 500 years old?”
“Kekeke, I had a situation and changed my body . Now, should we talk about your ability and Magi?”
Luke, who thought that his opponent was weak, began to cast Black Bind to absorb his opponent’s Magi .
Hwaaa!
Volk tried to avoid it .
However, he had spent too much time fighting Luke, and eventually got caught in the vines which came from the ground .
“Ah, no! this is like violating the Summoning Principles between demons and warlocks…”
Fluttering and staggering, Volk soon gave up and his Magi and abilities were taken by Luke .
“Phew, it isn’t easy to deal with lower demons . ”
Luke wiped the sweat off of his forehead .
He unilaterally squeezed Volk but learned that the 5 and 6 magic circle didn’t run as smoothly as he expected .
“Well, the more I use it, the better it might get . ”
Thinking, he closed his eyes and looked at Volk’s abilities .
“Let’s see…”
Normally, apart from the Magi, the demons had good abilities that could be used .
Luke analyzed the Magi that he had absorbed and interpreted the magic ability within it as a magic formula and imprinted it on his brain .
Once he was done interpreting and imprinting the Magi, his body responded to the Magi .
Drrrr!
As his whole body started to overflow with power, his clothes became tighter .
At the same time, the force began to increase three times as the original one . His skin was becoming tougher and hard enough to even bounce off a knife .
“The ‘Build-up’ ability used to strengthen one’s body . As a lower-level combat demon, I have no choice but to be satisfied . ”
Compared to the higher demons whom he had beaten in the past, the young Luke didn’t seem to be troubled with his first catch .
If the ability could be used well, it would be very useful, and for a guy who had the desire to gain strength as he had none, it was everything .
“Well, if I need other abilities, I can always summon other demons . ”
Luke supervised the construction of the groundwater and returned back to the manor .

Under a Boundless Sky
If you were to ask someone what they thought of Revian Snow, they would say that she's small. Cute too. Doesn't talk much. Average grades, and hard to find in a crowd, though you'd think that someone with her looks would be more noticeable. She also plays the popular VRMMO's for some reason, but doesn't like to interact with others too much, even online. In short, she doesn't stand out too much. She likes it that way—After all, it's much easier to keep a secret when nobody's looking for one. If you enjoy my work, please consider supporting me on Patreon. It's a great help to me, and a very good motivation to do better, and more. I hope you continue to enjoy what I write!

NEVER SPLIT THE PARTY: The Adventures of The Creeping Bam (BOOK ONE: The Job)
TAO is a broken world held together with nothing but magic and the will of the gods who protect it and its people. Then thousand years ago THE SUNDERING struck and Tao was almost torn apart by a terrible magical cataclysm which resulted in the planet almost being halted in its journey through the cosmos. It took all the power the gods of Tao could muster to restore its orbit and set it turning again, but in their efforts it was forever changed – its axis was drastically altered, and it now spins in such a way that one face of the world is forever turned from the sun it orbits, leaving half the planet in perpetual darkness. The various humanoid races that survived and now thrive within the habitable parts of THE DAY LANDS have come to live in perpetual fear of what lives beyond THE BORDERLANDS that separate them from whatever dwells within THE NIGHT LANDS, but for ten millennia it has kept its secrets. The land of RUNDAO languishes under the rule of their warlike Northern neighbours, the TEKTEHRAN EMPIRE, while a small, ragtag band of motley adventurers ply their mercenary trade fighting monsters and protecting the common man from the various dangers that haunt the night and prowl the hinterlands on the edges of civilization. THE CREEPING BAM have amassed a modest reputation in their years together, but they’re still just a small-time party of sellswords, thieves, outcasts and mages. They’re also exactly the kind of underdogs the people of Tao doesn’t yet realise are needed to save the world from the encroaching darkness they doesn’t even know is coming … This is a love letter and homage to the high-fantasy worlds of the tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder and Warhammer and the sword & sorcery cinema and literature I fell in love with as a kid growing up in the 80s, from Robert E. Howard’s Conan the Barbarian (and the awesome Schwarzenegger movie, STILL my favourite fantasy film EVER), The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit and Ron Howard and George Lucas’ Willow, to the more grown-up and edgy worlds of grimdark masters George RR Martin and (my all-time favourite) Joe Abercrombie, as well as a BIG DOLLOP of Terry Pratchett’s immortal Discworld series. IMPORTANT: This story contains material which some readers may consider to be mature, such as battle violence, some strong language and occasional mild sexual scenes. If this is not your kind of thing, this story is not for you. I am also serializing this story on Tumblr, Wattpad, Quotev and Sweek.

Mordheim: Servants of The Damned (A Warhammer Fantasy Fiction)
“The Great Library,” Stated the stranger with a pause. “You know of it?”“Of course I do. In the Merchant’s Quarter?”“Yes, in the Merchant’s Quarter. I have gathered that there is an… artefact of importance within its walls.” Slowly, the figure produced a rusted key from the furls of his robes and held it in a black-gloved hand. “This opens the door to its chambers. It is the grimoire of Gunnar von Krugenheim, and I believe that it would serve better in the world than locked away in a dusty room.” Behind the cursed walls of Mordheim, warbands and gangs of all stripes are embattled in constant wars for resources and power. The cursed city attracts throngs in the thousands, searching for treasures, artefacts, power, and sometimes all three. The Cult of the Hidden Brethren is no exception, and when an opportunity to extend their reach is discovered, the cultists are eager to take the opportunity. However, not all is set in stone, and soon the cultists discover that the lure of power alone may not be enough to give them the drive required to see their quest done... --- Mordheim: Servants of the Damned is a fanfiction set in the world of Warhammer Fantasy, which is not owned by me but by the company Games Workshop. I of course, lay claim to nothing in this story but the characters I have created, and the core events of the story itself. This is my first true foray into fantasy writing, let alone Warhammer Fantasy, therefore any feedback is welcome. (It should be noted as well, the cover art is merely an artwork I found online and is not mine, therefore I do not lay claim to that either.)
