《A Modern Day Demon King》* Chapter 32 – The Office Ⅲ
Advertisement
At another restaurant, a party of four’s food finally arrives at the table as Reyn the gang began to eat. Halfway through the meal Zhào asks with a mouth full of food. “So, how’s the kitten you picked up doing?” Zhào mumbled.
Reyn smiles as she grabs her phone and shows them pictures of a black silky long furred cat with big blue eyes. “He’s doing quite well,” Reyn answered as she showed them various pictures of her pet cat.
Yáng smiles and says, “Have you gotten him vaccinated and natured yet?”
“That’s terribly cruel,” Zhào mumbled with a mouth full of food as winced privately at the thought of suddenly becoming a eunuch.
“Don’t listen to Zhào, Reyn. It really is important that you properly vaccinate your pet lest he catch some disease, but more importantly neuter him lest he increase the feral cat population. It is the only responsible thing to do as a pet owner,” Huáng firmly commented.
“That’s certainly. True, I can recommend a friendly veterinarian who happens to be a friend of mine,” Yáng happily interjected.
Zhào hastily wallows his food and says, “I didn’t mean it like that. I just meant it would be terribly cruel to suddenly find yourself a eunuch.”
“Now-a-days, the veterinarians don’t really cut their manhood’s off unless something goes wrong during surgery. Vets now, usually just sip the manhood like a vasectomy for any man. Technically, afterwards the cat can still get the job with the added perk that he won’t increase the feral cat population,” Huáng pointedly stated.
Reyn flashes a slightly evilly smile as she muses out loud, “Yes, that is a good idea to take my pet to the vet to have him properly taken care of and see that he is up to date on his shots.” Elsewhere, the shadow clone of Ye Ming and Ye Ming himself shiver as though someone was walking on their graves.

Zhào sighs mournfully to himself and says, “Poor bud,” before going back to eating.
“I sent you his contact information to your phone,” Yáng kindly said as Reyn’s phone slightly vibrates at receiving the message.
“Thank you, I’ll make sure to set up an appointment,” Reyn said with a chilling gleam in her eyes as she chuckles privately to herself causing thousands of shivers to creep up and down the backs of Ye Ming and his shadow clone.
The three men glance at each other as Zhào wipes his mouth clean and changes the subject. “So, anyone see the game on last night?” Zhào commented.
The subject is quickly changed as they begin to talk about the game that was on last night. Reyn quietly listens as she resumes eating and only interjects a comment every now and then. Soon enough their time is up, and they walk back to the office, content and full. However, there is a slight smirk of triumph on Reyn’s face the entire way back after reading a text message with a video. It was as if she knew something rather funny that they didn’t know about. But what could it possibly be?

The Exiled Villainess Returns
(Please heed the warnings above before reading) Reborn into the beautiful but deadly world of Ethetia, she comes to a sudden awareness that she is now Livia Katrina Valentine, a character of a game of a reverse harem she once played on Earth called Aster Academy: The Feuding Houses. But this revelation comes a bit too late. You see, Livia wasn't just anyone. She was not given the anonymity of being a background character, or even the blessing of being the heroine. Instead, she has bestowed the role of being the atrocious villainess. And that is exactly what she had been. As a result, Livia triggers her own death flag event at her debutante. Her memories of her past life have the grace to come only minutes before she is accused of poisoning the heroine, Amelia. But all is not helpless. Via last-minute intervention, Livia successfully manages to avoid having her head decapitated. Being exiled was a small price to pay for retaining a pulse. Plus, at least this way, Livia can finally start to live her life, to become more than just a cruel folly. Her exile should have been a new but unusual beginning to her story. But pitiless reality comes knocking. Ethetia had once only been a background setting in a game. A pretty and still picture that mostly went disregarded as the even prettier characters on the screen unloaded their dialogue, but now, it was Livia's world. As real and wonderous as planet Earth once had been, filled with small creatures with their own wills, ambitions, and needs. Such one creature decides that exile was not enough of a penalty. That Livia, the bullish and jealous tormentor of the heroine, deserves a fate more befitting of her past deeds. One worst than death. Livia's fate is ripped out of her hands. She is forced into a collar, sold to an empire rotten with greed, and placed inside a harem where she is expected to wither and die from the inside out. But Livia refuses to be forgotten. Burning with a deep rage against those who only wish to see her fall into her own grave, Livia makes a twisted promise to herself. A promise that pushes her through the darkest moments of her life and brings to light a newfound power rooted deep inside her. So keen to discard her as the villain she has once been, the little creatures in their own ignorance brought forth something they could never dream to fathom. A beacon of darkness.

It's not a game
Where am I? This is not my room. What is this place. If you were transported to another world, to be an RPG protagonist. Just another average weak human being, with nothing but ten copper coins and a crappy sword. Could you defeat demons, monsters and giants? I think not. In a world inhabited by all manner of unspeakable evil, by devils of both monster and man. Could you right wrongs and fix a broken world? I think not. When both your fellow man, demons and the very divines that hold reality together conspire to corrupt, extort and rape this world. When they toy with you and laugh in amusement as you dance in their palms. Could you alter fate? I think not. So when this is the thorny path ahead of our protagonists, why would you expect them to be able to? They’re just human after all, teenagers at that. Nevertheless, join me on an epic journey that will alter the course of history and reality itself as our protagonists show you what it really means to be human... in an inhuman world.
