Chapter 287: The Misfortune of Veritas Magic Tower 2
Vampire King Leviathan was one of the seven monarchs who ruled over the Devildom .
He was relatively incompetent compared to the other monarchs, so he tried to be as powerful as possible while making as many slaves as he could .
But after some time, his men began to disappear one after the other .
The low ranking demons disappearing didn’t matter to him, but when the intermediate class demons like Naga began to disappear without hearing any word from them, he had no choice but to worry about it .
Blood Land .
The land at the center was where the capital of Vampire King Leviathan was located . He lived at a magnificent palace made of red marble .
On the splendid throne of the royal palace was a demon with huge wings and tail .
He was Vampire King Leviathan .
And in front of him was Crimson, the right-hand man of Leviathan .
“So they all responded to the summons of a warlock and never returned?”
The voice of Leviathan rang out in the throne room .
Crimson opened his mouth, trying to answer as politely as possible .
“That is right, Your Majesty . Recently, there have been demons who were summoned to Middle-Earth and were unable to return . It has been presumed that they are probably extinguished because they haven’t been contacting us . ”
“Those stupid men!”
Urrrng!
The entire throne room shook with Leviathan’s shout .
Leviathan’s subordinates who were lined up on his left and right sides trembled at his shout .
After a while, Leviathan, who was angry, asked out of curiosity, “What kind of warlock is summoning and attacking our demons?!”
Once the balance of power broke between a demon’s lord, they would get eaten .
So, Leviathan tried to increase his maximum number of slave to not show his weak side, but how dare a nameless warlock touch his slaves!

“It hasn’t yet been figured out, but something similar to this had happened before . ”
“Are there similar instances like this?” Asked Leviathan .
“Yes . More than 500 years ago, a warlock named Saymon summoned demons and subdued them or stole their abilities . He was very famous back then . Have you ever heard of him?”
At Crimson’s question, Leviathan nodded when he recalled something .
“I remember something . At that time, the cousin of the monstrous, Baol—Garden—was taken down . If so, was he the one causing all this?”
“That isn’t the case . A human’s life can’t exceed 200 years, and Saymon was killed by a man called Rakan . Perhaps this is the work of a descendant of his . ”
“Without even fearing us?!”
If things went on like that, it would turn problematic for the demons .
And Leviathan, who was proud of being a demon lord and had the ambition of becoming the sole ruler of the Devildom, didn’t intend to forgive such a preposterous human being .
“I am thinking of sending one of the 18 generals to the next summoning . ”
There were a total of 18 generals under Leviathan .
They were the higher demons who commanded the Blood Army, and their individual armed forces were enough to destroy a human kingdom .
However, Leviathan didn’t seem pleased with it .
“Only one of the 18 generals?”
At the question of Leviathan, Crimson answered, “Of course, if Your Majesty wanted to, we can open the door to Middle-Earth and take the Bloody Army to the humans’ gate, but that would straight-up break the agreement between the New Worlds…”
“Hmm, this is difficult . ”
When the term ‘New Worlds’ was mentioned, Leviathan was forced to stop being anxious .
It was the new world that boasted the presence of something that was absent, but whenever the demons tried to overpower a different world, an omnipotent power was demonstrated at times .

In the past, many of Devildom’s lords had fallen to the authority of the New World .
Molrec, the 6th greatest king under Vampire King Leviathan, who had the title Great Demon, was executed and met with a miserable end .
After the death of Molrec, a new agreement was signed between the New World and the Devildom .
But it was more of a unilateral notice from the New World which said that if the agreement was violated the entire demon race would be annihilated .
“Responding to the human summons isn’t against the agreement at all . Human beings want demons because they are angry with their own levels . ”
With that, even in the new world, there were foolish and greedy humans who brought in the demons when they themselves couldn’t solve their own problems .
Of course, if the summons of the summoned demons went excessive, they would give in help by delegating new recruits or powers .
“And if it is a high ranking general, he will have the power to summon lower level demons . It that’s the case, we can send the Bloody Army to Middle-Earth and bring down those who have harmed the master’s power,” explained Crimson .
“That is right! That is how my dignity will stand!”
At the explanation from Crimson, Leviathan had a satisfied expression .
“That is a good idea . Get ready immediately! You must not miss a single summoning opportunity, and let the other demons’ henchmen get it!”
“Please leave them to us, Lord!”
When the permission of Leviathan fell, Crimson immediately summoned 18 generals .
The 18 generals, as if they all wanted to take part, quarreled with each other about who will go .
“Majesty, leave this to me!”
“No . I, Kauren is the most fitting one to do this . ”
“Shut up, you ignorant fools!”
“So what? You bony and skinless old man!”
As the two sides of the generals fought, the general sitting at the center got up .
“Don’t fight . In fact, for such a task shouldn’t the highest of the 18 generals be the one to go?”
“How can… I can’t accept that! Let’s reorganize our thoughts and order!”
Crimson wasn’t in a hurry when the generals were fighting amongst themselves .
“Just stop it! What good would it do to fight like this? Wouldn’t our Majesty be laughing at us!”
At those words, the 18 generals calmed down .
Crimson presented a bucket with small sticks in them .
“Each of you has great abilities, so we are going to make a fair selection . The person who pulls the red colored stick will be the one to take on the mission . ”
The 18 generals pulled the sticks .
And the one who got the red stick was Kauren—the 12th ranked general of the invasion force .

In Another World with Doraemon's 4D Pocket
Cary found himself awoken in a foreign land with what he thought was a nondescript white pouch. Reaching into the white pouch, he was able to pull out an assortment of gadgets that he recognized to be from his favorite childhood show, Doraemon. With the thousands of mischievous, powerful gadgets inside the 4D pocket, Cary will take on this new world by storm! Something ridiculous I will write purely for fun alongside my main story Giantslayer As a disclaimer, I may nerf some of the most broken gadgets or even not use them at all. Doraemon was insane for a children manga (e.g. Doraemon canonically has a nuclear bomb inside his 4D pocket), some of the gadgets have the potential to end this story in one chapter. The most important factor is fun so anything that completely breaks the story might not be mentioned at all (or we will pretend they do not exist in the 4D pocket). We may find uses for those broken gadgets in the future, though. I am not particularly good at writing comedy. There will of course be funny moments (at least I hope they are funny) but everyone in this story will actually behave in a realistic(?) and serious manner. I want the serious world to contrast with some of the wacky gadgets that are available.

The Arcane Fanatic
"A strange thing Drives us all..." An unknown voice echoes out through seemingly darkness. "The will to live." "But what is it to truly live? It is different for everyone but for me it is magic." "To feel the power at my fingertips and see mysteries unfold. To create and manipulate magic in a way that has never been done before. To be a pioneer of magic... that is what I live for. --- In the world known as Arcane, we follow a young gentleman that goes by the name of Max Blacklock. The strange thing about Maxwell is that the soul that is currently inhabiting his body isn't the original! A stranger with no recollection of his memory or thoughts takes place in a near-dead Max and takes to the world like a fish in water. Mysteries lay in the world of arcane in spades and Max will be the one to find them with his thirst for knowledge. But will Max find the mysteries that lay in his mind, body, and soul? This book is just for fun and to practice my writing skills. My previous book met me with frustration after sitting for hours in a day trying to get words to come out. It became something that just wasn't fun to me anymore. So here I'm going to try and just have fun writing a story I would have loved to read. If you want to read what I write then be my guest. I love to critique and hope that I can get better through writing this story but I don't know if I will be able to keep a stable upload schedule until I get into the flow of things again.
