Chapter twenty three
Unknown P.O.V.
I woke up feeling something I haven't felt in almost four thousand years.
I carefully extracted myself from the tangle of bodies and looked back at my bed to see the magnificent view of forty two naked young women lying before me, but I had no time to indulge my lust, I had felt something that I thought was lost to me forever.
I left my room and climbed to the highest place in the obsidian castle that I call home, the observatory. There I gazed out at the wide open grasslands and the forests beyond.
I was a little tired climbing up all those stairs , so I was panting lightly. I once again lamented my poor choice in bodies. I was lost in the underworld for so long that when I felt someone trying to summon me that I desperately grabbed the connection and forced the summoner out and took over his body. By the time I realized he was a frail 80 year old Abyssinian witchdoctor with delusions of grandeur it was too late.
He was such a poor receptacle for my powerful soul that pieces of me were completely lost. To my regret I lost most of my more advanced sealing and summoning techniques. When I tried to take over my old home I was firmly repulsed by a person who calls himself the Rabbi and used kabbalistic magic.
I took my anger and frustration out on Africa and conquered all the nations one by one, but I always regretted not having my motherland but I just didn't have enough power to do anything about it .
But now it was different, someone was able to summon one of my demons. Although I had lost the powers to summon any of the higher demons, they were still bound to me by the seal I put over each and every one of their hearts, that's why when I felt one of my higher demons enter this realm I was very excited. A few minutes later I felt the presence disappear , but then a different demon was summoned.

Two higher demons in one night? I was almost salivating in anticipation. No matter what I have to find this new power and make it mine.
With it I could finally have my legions of demons again, then the world will remember to fear the name Solomon.

Death Cultivator (Cultivator in Another World Vol. I & II)
Fight for your Soul. New cultivator Grady Hake thought his problems would disappear when he became a member of the strongest gang on the prison planet, but all it did was thrust him into the kill-or-be-killed world of the Eight-Legged Dragons. Now if he wants to survive, he’ll have to learn to cloak his deadly Spirit attacks in shadow, control the ancient revenant trying to take over his mind, and defeat the Angel of Death who dropped him on Van Diemann in the first place. Death Cultivator is sci-fi / isekai / wuxia / western / whatever, sort of like Borderlands meets Hunter x Hunter. I wanted to write something entertaining and actiony with that shonen vibe, so here's hoping this hits the spot. Warning: This isn't an isekai where the MC immediately becomes OP and starts revenge-killing everyone once he gets Death powers. Death is coming, but it's a slow burn. Like some of the reviewers for Volume I mentioned, the MC has a past and it effects his actions and choices in the new world.
