《A Demon’s Journey》A Demon's Journey
Advertisement
White Wings sprouted on Edwin's back, and two horns formed over his head. His appearance and presence were extremely oppressive as he stared solemnly at that Golden Barrier surrounding Bernado's body.
The aura he gave off was a mixture of Holy, Demonic, and Humane.
This aura immediately alerted those warriors who were looking for Demonic and Holy Ardor.
The experts of the Royal Family who had been signaled by Bernado's locket were already rushing towards Edwin's location. Currently, two more groups had also charged in Edwin's direction.
These two groups were Celestial Slayer Corps and Demon Slayer Corps, respectively. Each human kingdom would possess these corps.
Their task was to purge Celestials or Demons.
To accomplish their tasks, they possessed weapons to deal with their adversaries. The Demon Slayer Corps possessed weapons or abilities that worked well against Demons.
While the same was true for the Celestial Slayer Corps. They possessed demonic weapons, poisons, and other supplements that allowed them to fight against the Celestials on an even ground.
Edwin was sensing multiple auras coming towards him. The power he sensed from them was much stronger than the guards hired by Bernado.
He was sure that Bernado would survive if they reached this location.
He also understood another part of this mysterious energy.
'If a Warrior wasn't nearby to save him… The warriors from afar would be notified through some bullshit means, and they would move to protect him as soon as possible. In my normal form, I can't destroy that barrier before they reach this position.'
"Heavenly Thunder!"
Edwin threw his Red Lightning in the sky. The clouds rumbled immediately as they were charged by that red lightning.
A second later, the clouds flashed with a dense Red Lightning and targeted Bernado.
"Hell Flames!"
Edwin's Hell Flames immediately moved towards Bernado's direction and swallowed the entire barrier. It was quickly weakening that barrier's energy.

"The Great Tornado!"
Finally, the last bit was the Tornado that was seemingly drilling its way into the barrier. The Red Lightning suddenly struck at the barrier.
Bernado was shocked to see that barrier shatter! This barrier was created by none other than his father, King Valliadis.
It didn't exactly possess the strength of a 6 Star Warrior since the artifact would have exploded if the King truly infused it with his own power.
However, this barrier possessed the strength of a peak 5 Star Warrior. Moreover, this cultivation was of the King
As a Royal Bloodline Holder, the King's Ardor was nearly five times stronger than normal. For this barrier to shatter now, Bernado didn't dare to imagine just how strong Edwin was at this moment.
"Lightning doesn't strike twice. But your case would be an exception." Edwin spoke with a grin.
"Fall!" Edwin gave his command coldly.
The Heavenly Lightning crackled in the dark clouds before it fell on Bernado's body!
This time, it did strike Bernado's body. Bernado was already very weak because of those wounds over his body.
And Edwin had used his complete strength in this Heavenly Lightning. It was only natural for it to have killed Bernado right now.
Edwin was slightly surprised before his expression returned to normal.
'So this was the limit of that Mysterious Ability. To kill someone like this, Bernado, I need to take a great risk and possess absolute power; otherwise, I won't succeed.'
'If these are the conditions to kill someone like Bernado, it would be even more troublesome to kill the Crown Prince or the King.'
Edwin didn't know about the power of Crown Prince David Valliadis. At the least, he would be much stronger than Bernado here.
Defeating him would be much tougher, and Edwin even guessed that he probably wouldn't be able to kill him like he killed Bernado unless he advanced to the 6 Star Rank.

Advancing to the 6 Star Rank wasn't easy, though.
Edwin needed the Sinyalian Kingdom to commence a proper war against the Glerian Kingdom. Only then would he be able to gather enough death energy to advance to the 6 Star Rank.
During the battle between the Radiant Church and the Roger Dukedom, he had gathered some death energy, but it was merely a drop in the ocean. He required much more than that energy!
However, Edwin wasn't completely helpless.
First, he had to leave this location. He dispersed his transformation and immediately used the Blue Lightning to fly in the opposite direction.
This meant he was running away from Mesenana City.
In reality, Edwin was just flying as far as he could from Mesenana city until these warriors reached the location where the Third Prince's personal mansion stood.
Once they saw Bernado's dead body, most of them would probably remain at this location to investigate what had occurred while the others would look for him.
Edwin could take advantage of that opportunity to fly to Sophie's mansion.
What he had anticipated soon occurred! The warriors who reached the location were utterly shocked to see Bernado's dead body.
They immediately scattered a few warriors and ordered them to search for the assaulter.
Meanwhile, the other warriors remained behind to investigate the enemy. Just how many were there and so on…
Soon, the Demon Slayer Corps and the Celestial Slayer Corps arrived.
The two were surprised to see the other. They sneered coldly and thought collectively 'What are they doing here?!'
The Demon Slayer Corps and the Celestial Slayer Corps were servants of the king, but their relations weren't very good.
The cause of their bad relationship was because both these groups wanted the Royal Court to increase their budget.
The Demon Slayer Corps killed many demons within a month, so they felt they deserved a much greater salary and budget.
As for the Celestial Slayer Corps, they had to use many expensive treasures to defeat Celestials. Thus, they believed they deserved more budget.
The King had opted to lean on the Demon Slayer Corps' side in recent years because their presence was required more frequently.
This had naturally disappointed the Celestial Slayer Corps, but they couldn't go against the kings' orders. Thus, they could only swallow their resentments and throw them at these warriors of the Demon Slayer Corps.
During this time, Edwin had already flown to Bianca and Miku's side.
Bianca already ordered Miku to keep her mouth shut about everything she witnessed today.
Edwin could see her emotions and knew she was completely loyal to Bianca. She won't open her mind even in front of Spencer Russel.
While they were returning, Bianca's face began to turn red as her body began to get hotter.
The aphrodisiac was now working.
Edwin noticed it and stared at Bianca's body. He touched Bianca's forehead with his finger.
He began to whisper the Heavenly Poison Scripture and absorbed that aphrodisiac from her body. The aphrodisiac couldn't affect Edwin's physique, so it was soon converted into pure energy and absorbed by him.
Bianca's body returned to normal once Edwin was done. The two continued to walk towards her mansion.
Edwin's spiritual sense was still focused on the warriors gathered near Bernado's Mansion. They should have concluded their investigation till now.
These warriors wouldn't be able to guess the number of warriors since they didn't know which ability was used by whom.
This meeting was pretty much a complete secret, so no one would reach Bianca's house. After all, how could she be a suspect in the killing of a prince?
Edwin concluded that he was going to be very safe in that mansion.

Rupegia
"You may now kiss the bride." But no kiss ever came. I'm ripped from my wedding and thrown into a medieval fantasy world with game-like elements. It may seem like a game, but that doesn't matter to me, because this is my reality. The pain, the hunger, the cold, the fear, it's all real to me. Alone, without knowing why I'm here, in a world where I know nothing and nobody, I decide to buy a Blood Slave to have someone I can trust. She brings me comfort and so much more. She helps me raise my head high again and bravely move forward. Together, we'll grow stronger. Together, we're unbreakable. But she won't be the only one by my side. We need more than just each other, for I know that my purpose in this world can't be accomplished with only her help. Monsters and dungeons plague the land, forcing civilization to protect themselves from the hordes with tall walls and fierce determination. Killing monsters is a daily need, but they aren't the only enemy here. I have a powerful "Gift" that allows me to change my "skill points" at will, but if others were to know about it, there would be many that would try to use me by any means possible. Step by step, moment by moment, day by day, we keep moving forward, always aiming to improve our strength. One day, we'll meet our Fate, and we'll be ready for it. Swords held high, shields tightly strapped to our arms, wings spread apart, spells at the tip of our tongues, minds focused like blades, and our hearts hardened like steel. We'll take on whatever comes our way! --------------------------------------------- New chapters Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 8PM US East. At least 3k words each. Additional Tags: Psychological, Romance, Magic, Male Lead, Portal Fantasy/Isekai/Transmigration, Polygamy, Slaves Content Warning: gore, profanity, sexual content (most of it has been censored) (male/female, female/female, and human/non-human(not for the faint of heart)), traumatizing content What to expect: Slow story focused on the day-to-day life of a transmigrated man rather than on the plot. The plot exists but it very slowly becomes relevant. Also, slow character progress. It's a long journey, so don't expect a hero to grow in just a few chapters. Detailed environments and extensive world-building. Realistic and tactical combat instead of flashy. Protagonist with a cheat but far from overpowered. Lots of descriptive sex scenes (though most got censored here). It's treated as just another part of life instead of merely fan-service. A harem where the members actually enjoy living with each other. Occasional weird wording and grammar, English isn't my first language. Currently uploading on: Royal Road (most sexual content censored), Scribble Hub, Novel Updates Forum, Wattpad, Hentai Foundry, Webnovel, MoonQuill, Nobles, Archive of Our Own, and Literotica. This story is also on Scribble Hub, Novel Updates, Hentai Foundry, Webnovel, MoonQuill, Archive of Our Own, and Literotica.

I Need Time
An action, adventure, mystery and strategy story about a strong male lead. Author note: First time author, good amount of buffer chapters (over 50k words) so I will not drop this book anytime soon. This book will mostly be from the perspective of the MC. On average +5k words will be published per week. I have not chosen some of the genres and tags as I do not wish to give away parts of the story. I added the content warning tags as there will come a time for profanities, gore and maybe "traumatising" content. Though, in my opinion the content will be mild if not light. *****SPOILER*****SPOILER***** Synopsis: A college ICT student transmigrates to another world filled with magic and learns magic from a dragon. MC uses modern knowledge to develop magitech technology. MC starts his adventure using the technology he develops! Saving princesses, fighting hidden criminal organizations, learning how horribly medieval peasants live, reasoning with uneducated narrow minded people, investigating the nature of magic and searching for gods... Story review: A fantasy/sci-fi story filled with some common cliches yet presents somewhat original ideas and a few unexpected twists & turns here and there. This novel also explores a few of the commonly ignored topics concerning medieval fantasy like hygiene, culture, education(ignorance, narrow mindedness) and the fact that everybody is short because magical crops cost too much. Modern knowledge in such a setting can often times revolutionize the world if the protagonist is not an idiot or weak willed or thinks something stupid like he should not intervene in a society that systematically practices unequality of opportunity, slavery and other nasty things, of course sometimes the protagonist can be just unlucky by being enslaved, etc. In our case we are granted a protagonist who had an initial stroke of luck, learning magic from a dragon instead of struggling for years without it or randomly dieing. After that his luck goes down the drain. It is arguable whether the princess is a good stroke of luck or not, I digress. Anyway the challenges the protagonist must face will grow and no more luck or helping hands. After gaining enough power and security the protagonist will change the world for the better or at least give it a stronge push onto the right track. He will make a lot of lives better but things are never so simple and there is much more to this world than meets the eye... Missing genres & tags: Fantasy, Sci-fi, Magic. *****SPOILER*****SPOILER*****
