Chapter 178
After defeating the princess’s hearty plans, Luke took the imperial army and headed for Akbar Fortress the next day .
However, just before they were about to depart, they were given a bothersome bonus .
Princess Margareta went along with them .
“Why is the princess following us?”, asked Luke .
“I have been sent as a liaison officer, and since I know magic, I would be helpful to the Marquis . ”, responded the princess .
‘Not at all, this b*tch!’
Luke had never thought that she would be so stubborn as to follow him to the battlefield for seducing him .
But he wasn’t in the position to refuse the liaison officer dispatched by the king, which was why he decided to play along with it and thought of another plan .
‘Huhuhu, I’ll make sure to wrap you around my dress!’
While looking at Luke’s back, Margareta thought to herself .
The opponent, the descendant of the warrior Rakan .
Not only did he have a great lineage, but he also made the status of his fallen family rise, which was ruined by the empire and its emperor .
Margareta who vowed to not end her life as a princess on the marginal border of the empire decided to use Luke as her slave and pave her way into the empire .
‘You won’t be able to be yourself tomorrow after tonight . ’
While grinning, Margareta touched the potion, but there was something she didn’t know .
That very night, Luke would try to get out of the unit without telling anyone .
As the sun went down, the imperial army stopped their marching and prepared to camp .
Perhaps it was because of their anxiety, but right after having their dinner, everyone fell asleep except for the two soldiers who were guarding the camp .
Two suspicious shadows infiltrated the camp that was engulfed in silence .

In a moment, those shadows, which weren’t spotted by the guards, went toward the commander’s barrack .
Those two shadows were actually trying to contact Luke .
“Have you come?” Asked Luke .
The inside of the tent brightened and Luke got up .
“Yes, master . What am I supposed to do?”
Under the magic lamp, the intruder’s identity got revealed . They were Luke’s slaves, Sebastian and Belfair .
As a response to Sebastian’s question, Luke answered with a thin smile .
“You will take my place like the last time . I’ve put together some of the operations that you need to do as the commander . ”
At that very moment, Sebastian transformed himself into Luke and took the paper where the instructions were written down .
With the piece of paper in hand, Sebastian looked at Luke and asked seriously, “Master . There is something I desire . ”
“Desire?” Luke asked .
“Yes, since I vowed my loyalty to you, I hope you will let me . ”
“Let’s listen to what it is, then we’ll decide . ”
At those words of Luke, Sebastian pointed to the barracks were princess Margareta was residing .
“Can I eat her?”
“You want to eat her? Is that in a literal sense or metaphorical?”
Luke was puzzled because Sebastian never used such words .
On top of that, even if he meant it literally, Luke thought Belfair would be the one to say it .
At the question from Luke, Sebastian smacked his lips and said, “It is neither hunger nor a sexual desire . What I want is the twisted desire and the negative emotions that that woman possesses . She has so much negative emotions compared to any human I have ever seen . ”
What Sebastian wanted were her feelings and not her body . He wanted to go to her bedside every night and absorb her ill feelings .

“I don’t mind, so it’s fine, but if that woman dies or gets sick, it’ll become troublesome . ”
“You don’t have to worry, master . There will be no problem with her life or her health . ”
With Luke’s permission, Sebastian bowed and thanked him .
However, Luke had no idea what would happen . If he knew it, he would have never allowed it .
“Do your best once I am gone . ”
Luke said it firmly and left the tent .
This was how Luke’s plan would go .
While Sebastian disguised himself as Luke and lead the imperial army to block the monsters at the Akbar Fortress, he along with Belfair would take down the monster legion from behind .
While trying to reduce their forces and power, they would destroy the Orc Hero .
It was a simple plan, but it needed bold actions, and Luke along with Belfair wouldn’t have decided to try it if they had no power .
Using Fly Magic, he moved to the western Garen territory where the monsters were in full swing, bringing out the subspace bracelet for the golems .
“Load in Dimension!”
Whoong!
The last time, when he went to Rakan estate during the Reina situation, he brought back the golems he produced in the Devil King’s Castle’s underground workshop after handing over the Gigant .
“Master, are you going to start here?”
“Yes, not that far from here, there are a bunch of monsters . ”
At the answer from Luke, Belfair drew his sword and smiled .
Although he seemed human, his nature was that of a Demon Vampire .
Favoring the killings, he stayed with Luke, but the stress which came from working under him was no joke .
If possible, he would have probably lost half the hair on his head .
“There is no need to leave even one of them alive, so kill to your heart’s content . ”
Once Luke’s permission came out, Belfair spread out his wings and flew toward the monsters .
As he began to fly, he burst into laughter .
“Kuakkkakak! Five be fresh blood and flesh!”
Luke was like the meat that met with water, Belfair jumped into the monster herd and slaughtered them without letting anyone live .
“Kuak! A raid!”
“Do not run away . Do what Shaikan said!”
The monsters, which were being attacked out of nowhere, were flustered and scattered .
The orcs who were controlling the herd urgently tried to control them and maintain the balance .
But before the battle could turn into a balanced once, the Golem Legion invaded . Luke’s Marionette Magic emerged .
The golems, wildly whipping their hands, threw the monsters, causing blood to sprinkle in all directions .
“Kuk! Ogres fight!”
“Smash them, giants!”
Some orcs tried to fight using the large monsters .
However, the large monsters couldn’t even move as they were tied by the Black Bind which Luke had developed .
Kuk! Kuuong!
The power of Black Bind sucked the large monster’s magi and the monster, which couldn’t get free from the bind, screamed .
Not being able to unfold the 5th circle black magic and escape, they ended up dying because all of their life energy had been sucked out of them until they turn into bones .
The orcs and the other monsters had gone to save them, but they too were caught in the Black Bind .
Their strength was absorbed by Luke .
“Hut, gathering dust on the mountain…”
Just as he had expected, while hunting monsters, Luke was able to get a lot of mana .
Luke used more of the Black Bind then used the Golems to trample them .
It hadn’t been a day, but the monsters on the Garen territory were already wiped out .
The typhoon that was going to quell the monster wave had begun, and no one knew about it .

YAOS 1 - Limitless Adventures - Yet Another OP Story Book 1
December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and at Amazon. December 30th 2018: V1.1.2 of YAOS Book 1 is out, some content additions, fixed typos. Amazon's enhanced typesetting now displays tables properly. YAOS is shown through the eyes of some genius athlete getting OP inside a VR, ah wait, Full Immersion game, ?F.I.O?. Not a Hero, not a Nerd, just a driven individual paying for mistakes made, biding time until he can return to the Real World. He isn't defined like you'd normally do it, you can pick his looks and name all on your own, just like you do in video games. Believe it or not, keeping his looks undefined is harder than you think. His backstory isn't expounded in detail, but it drives his choices. Book 1 isn't about depressing sob stories but about fun and rushing forward, pursuing new horizons. Oh, and you'll end on a cliffhanger! Well, most serials do, so you will probably expect that without being told explicitly. But it isn't that bad, there's a lot of reveals and more to come once this book, that is the first in a planned three-part series, is finally ready for release on amazon et al. The published version will have: 1.) Godawful speaker tags, I hate them, they make you stop thinking and speed up editing so much. In hindsight they should have been in to begin with. But I stand by my goals proclaimed earlier. You guys should think while reading, that is the whole point of the exercise. Apply the knowledge and ideas, improve yourself, get creative! 2.) Pretty colored tables, the damned blue boxes, a lot of work, 69 in one book. Finally fixed amazon's centering issue. Can't say I liked the hours needed to debug that. 3.) The promised Mitara chapters. 4.) A cover! 5.) And lastly, updated polished versions of several chapters. MC shares more of his past, some terrible chapters (esp. 32) finally work. Some new scenes, minor rewrites in parts. Text flow and other issues. The current challenge is to maintain essential ambiguity while satisfying people wanting to know more without thinking three steps ahead. Balancing one with the other is tough. The smut which was in remains, but the story told is not to be superseded by it. A 15+ rating for the first book is also important, not to mention, YAOS wasn't meant to contain any smut to begin with. If the Author can turn to writing full time his output should increase, so please support YAOS #1 once it does finally release. ~Thank You~ No maps so far, that should be in, but is really hard to get done right. Again, tips are appreciated. Update September 2017: Stubbed chapters, sorry guys, currently don't have time to upload them elsewhere, polishing book 1 and 2, writing 3, takes precedence. Book 1 is in heavy editing, too much to keep synced and continuing editing. I'd need a site which offers JS-free rapid managing of chapters and comments. Coding one myself or setting a premade up is out of scope until I'm done with the books. RRL-old offered that, nuff said. This is only here because the author believes in fairies, nobody reads this, most likely. October to December 2017: Life threw some curveballs. February 2018: Book 2 draft 1 completed, at ~150K words. Book 2 is fairly epic in scope, requires 1 rewritten chapter, some editing. Tables and miscellanea are in, but needs at least a grammar pass. March 2018: Book 3 at 28k words, first arc, rest needs serious planning for spin-off and satisfying conclusion. July 2018: Yet another proofing/editing session of books 1-3, 101+ chapters, ~300k words. B3 at 48k, starts out great, but no ETA, no wordcount limit, in flux. But prioritizing my writing cannot be done, I hate the delays as much as you, but you will prefer the whole released in a timely fashion rather than wait. Knowing myself how excruciating waiting can be, at least you'll get significantly polished versions and an ETA on book 2 by release of book 1. December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and in the process at Amazon et. al.. . To all who wait patiently, offered feedback, thanks again!
