《The Seven Demon Gods' Successor》Chapter 31- Mikhail‘s New Goal
Advertisement
After Mikhail got off of the arena, he didn't immediately go back to his residence but instead went back to his seat. It was still pretty early and the celebration party had just started.
At the same time, while still seated on his throne, the Emperor raised his right hand in the air while mumbling something to himself.
“Buzzz!”
Following his action, the small red cubic Artifact that previously seemed to have melted into the ground suddenly resurfaced, and the red fiery wall of energy receded into it like a tidal wave before it flew into the Emperor’s hand.
Unlike magical weapons created by humans, any Artifact could be spiritually bound to its user. As such, they could be telepathically or spirituality recalled by the user within a certain distance by chanting a specific mantra or spell.
Once he was done, the Emperor cleared his throat and looked at the guests before slowly speaking: “I would like to thank Bishop Gerald for putting up this competition. It was a great success.”
“Even though it was very short, it was still extremely entertaining and I truly enjoyed it. So, let's offer a toast to Bishop Gerald!” Having said that, he slowly raised his cup in the air with an enigmatic slight smile on his face while looking at Bishop Gerald.
At this moment, Bishop Gerald’s face reddened with anger after hearing this. Any fool could tell that the emperor was making fun of him.
However, he didn't dare to show any disrespect to Emperor as he raised his glass along with the other guests and empty the wine in his glass. Bishop Gerald felt as though he was forced to drink in his own piss.
He had completely and utterly lost. He wanted to use that so-called competition to humiliate the Imperial Family of the Helios Empire in front of all the guests.

However, the plan had completely backfired on his face. It was like lifting a giant rock to only drop it on one’s own feet.
He didn't expect the 13th Imperial Prince to be so strong to the point where Ramiel who was a Peak 7 Star Aura Knight couldn't even withstand a single blow from him.
How frightening was this? That little bastard wasn't even eighteen yet. If he knew that he was that strong, he wouldn't have brought Ramiel with him but instead the 3rd Holy Son.
‘We need to eliminate that little freak as soon as possible. We can’t allow him to become a monster like his father.’
After the Emperor’s little speech was over, the banquet had resumed with people drinking and eating. However, Bishop Gerald didn't stay for long. He used the unconscious Ramiel as an excuse to leave early.
He didn't want to stay in this damn place any longer. Staying any longer would only result in further humiliation.
However, before he left he didn’t forget to cast a cold and murderous glance at Mikhail who was sitting alone at his table while sipping his wine and enjoying the snacks in front of him.
‘Enjoy yourself while you could little bastard, your death is near and it won’t be a pretty one.’
Bishop Gerald wasn’t the only one casting their glances at Mikhail. Almost everyone within the main was.
The gazes that fell upon Mikhail came in a plethora of emotions; there was envy, jealousy, admiration, murderous intent, cold and calculating glints, and cruelness.
Also, for some odd reason, no one dared to approach him and strike a conversation with him even after he had accomplished such a great feat by defeating Ramiel with a single blow. He was still being alienated, not that he cared anyway.

“Damn it! Being here reminded me just how much I hate those kinda boring elite parties.”Mikhail mumbled to with an annoying expression on his face while still chewing on a piece of meat.
As one of the most powerful hunters back on earth, Mikhail was always invited into all kinda social elite parties. However, he rarely went as they were all boring.
It was all about politics, making connections, and showing their wealth. There wasn’t any real fun. Even though they would serve the best delicacies, he would prefer going to a disco or a bar to enjoy himself.
“Also, if I remember correctly, this new body of mine is still a virgin. I know that you had an incredible thirst for strength and all, but you also need to know how to enjoy the finest thing in life buddy.” He murmured to himself while looking at his reflection on a piece of silverware on the table.
“Life it’s all about balance, Yin and Yang. Now that I’ve become you, I'm gonna have to quickly take care of that for you before going back to the Great Helios Pass. I need to turn you into a real man.”He added with a sly smile on his face
Aside from that, there was also another important reason that Mikhail wanted to pop the cherry of this new body of his. He wanted to partially unseal the Demon God Luxuria’s Unique Skill.
He already knew that each one of the 7 Demon God Unique Skills was related to the seven capital sins or seven cardinal sins, in Roman Catholic theology.
Each one of them represented a major moral vice and was contrasted with one of the Seven Heavenly Virtues or exemplary moral attitudes.
So far he had already partially unsealed the unique skill of the Demon God Avaritia which meant the Demon God of Greed and the Demon God Ira which translated into the Demon God of Wrath.
He also had to commit to each one of those vices or sins to partially unseal them. As such, if he wanted to partially unseal the unique skill of the Demon God Luxuria which meant the Demon God of Lust, he would need to engage in sexual relations as Lust was described as an inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body.
Whether it was for his own pleasure or for the sake of increasing his strength by unlocking another one of the 7 Demon God Unique Skills, Mikhail didn’t plan on going back to Great Helios Pass without turning this new body of his into a full-fledged man
Furthermore, he also wanted to know what kinda skill was the Demon God Luxuria’s Unique Skill. He wanted to see if it was as powerful as the other two Demon Gods, Avaritia and Ira.

The Way Ahead
What do you do when you don't fit in? Edwin never really felt many connections to other people, but as a physics student, that was fine. He didn't really need it, anyway. He was content to peel back the mysteries of the universe... not that there were many left to find. Modern-day research was just too well-established, too well-trodden for any single enthusiast to make any significant headway. But that doesn't apply to other worlds. Not ones where magic and Skills run rampant, where well-defined roles and Classes dominate much of society with little room for novel experimentation from its residents. That kind of world would be perfect for an overeager, newly-minted Alchemist to make his mark. Things are never that easy, though. The Way Ahead is a very slice-of-life story following the story of someone trying to find his place in a world that doesn't know what to do with him. Expect lots of science, lots of alchemy, a few sarcastic quips by the System, and lots of exploration involving the world, self-discovery, and above all, science. After all, further research is always required. Updates every other day at 9 AM PST. Congratulations! For writing a story during the month of November, you have unlocked the Royal Road Writathon Participant path!

Wander West, in Shadow
BOOK 1 COMPLETED A young wizard journeys west, through dark forests and dangerous lands, searching for something. Accompanied by a wild witch who has secrets of her own, they come across terrible creatures, hauntings, cursed villages, and memories from their past. Who else will they meet along their journey, and to find what he is looking for, how far will the wizard have to wander west? NOTE: The above synopsis is intentionally written to be as spoiler-free as possible. If you would like a more in-detail synopsis, one that contains minor spoilers, please check out the "Synopsis" chapter at the beginning of this fiction. If you read and enjoy, please leave a rating or review! FORMERLY TITLED: THE GLIMMERLING This story was formerly titled "The Glimmerling", because the first part was a short story of that title; it has since been expanded upon, thus the title change. Chapters 1-8 (30k words) are the first 'arc', if you want to get a feel for the story. To give some context on the setting: Magic is a bit weaker in this story than you might be used to, and we start off following some relatively new magic users. For some perspective, being able to light a campfire with magic is considered relatively advanced for someone who is the age of the main character. Magic can become very powerful - and there are some examples of powerful wizards within this story - but it's not where the main characters are yet. Part of the story is about following them as they learn more about magic. Enemies are also very dangerous, and running, hiding, or trying to talk their way out of a dangerous situation is often a better choice than fighting for the characters. While I have added tags for traumatizing content, sexuality, violence, swearing, etc. I try to avoid super-explicit descriptions of these things. But they are part of the story.
