《Chaos Wave》Volume 1 - Chapter 11 - Cthulu in Your Cup
Advertisement
I ignored everything as I followed my minimap to the location where the sacrifice is going to be held. The time remaining is under an hour when I make it there, but I manage to arrive, where eight Mindflayer Priests are chanting as they draw the memories and emotions from the minds of the drow, dwarves, gnomes, and animals they have captured, with five minutes left on the count down. I cut down the priests, but the countdown immediately goes to all zero as the last priest fell. The cauldron on the altar bubbled and boiled over, rocked, tilted, and spilled out the fluids onto the cavern floor.
Congratulations!
You have saved the bodies of the prisoners! Can you save their minds?
Defeat the Mighty One!
As I was reading the prompt that appeared, the puddle of liquid rose into the air, and formed a ring eighty feet in diameter. “Oh fuck... This is going to hurt!”
Out of the ring, an enormous Mindflayer, emerges. This giant must have been at least seventy feet tall, with a seventy-five foot tall staff! How the hell was I supposed to fight something this big? As I was staring at it, it moved with insane speed and hit me with the butt of its staff, sending me flying and crashing into the wall of this enormous cavern, the stone cracking around me. I swore as I noticed all my defensive buffs had been broken with that single hit, and I even lost ten percent of my heath on top of it!
“Okay, you just made it personal. I’m sorry, but now you will have to die. I can no longer forgive your trespass and assault. I hope you are prepared to die, for I shall take no pity on you!”
My speech only caused the damn thing to laugh at me! Seriously!? “PUNY MORTAL! YOU DARE TO CHALLENGE A GOD!”
“You are but a minor god of madness! Do you really think you can kill a Godling born of Luck of Death!?” As I was taunting him, I was also watching my buffs spin up on my bar, restoring themselves. During the time we had been working on mining the damned wall in the goblin tunnel, I had figured out how to set up a macro to restore my buffs, either for when they expire naturally or when I receive damage enough to break through them. I showed him my scythe. “I shall bathe my Primordial Fire in your blood!”
He moved towards me, and I did indeed find out that the old statement of ‘the bigger they are, the harder they fall’ was very true. I could barely scratch his skin with the blade of the scythe. I swore and donated all my donatable points into the Guild Pool, skyrocketing my Karma Points up. I spent a hundred to coat the blade and this time, it cut instead of scraping! I backhanded his incoming staff blow, sending him off balance thanks to the huge boost in strength from my bottomless bag of holding and Executioner status.
I attacked where I thought he was, but my blade went straight through his skin and he vanished like a puff of smoke! Damn it, of course, he’s a Mindflayer type. I can’t rely on my normal senses... I pulled up the Cash Shop, and quickly purchased scrolls of ‘Mind Guard’, ‘Regeneration’, and ‘Sense: Killing Intent’. As soon as they materialized, I activated them, making them crumble into dust.

With these three skills, I should have evened the fight between this giant monster and myself. I opened my eyes, and found his staff coming down at me from an overhand chop, making me put my full speed to jumping out of the way of the five-foot thick staff! The rock receives a huge crack where he hits, and I roll to absorb the shockwave. I immediately countered with a pair of Deathbolts at him, and check his Analyze Status.

Minor Cthulu
Level 400 - Grade 7
Health 6,800,000 / 7,000,000
This minor deity of insanity has been summoned through the failure of the Mindflayer Priests to finish their ritual with the sacrifice of the Prisoners. If they had succeeded, you would have faced a Greater Madness God.
I blinked in shock, and shook my head. At least I had proven I can damage him. If it can be damaged, it can be killed! A cold smile came to my face. “Not looking so good there, Ali! At this rate, I’ll kill you before you can even break my spell barriers again!”
Of course, as I taunted him, I had begun circling around him. I ordered my undead rats from the mines to attack him. Of course, I knew the rats were only going to be a minor hindrance, but I was hoping to use them to build up a greater Primordial Flame attack. In fact, it worked. I managed to charge and condense five thousand MP worth of Primordial Flame into a tiny ball, which I launched at his face.
The staff came down, and crushed a rat, just barely missing the tennis ball sized orb of green fire, which kept on track, and slammed into his eye, making him screech as it then exploded, taking off half of his tentacles, coating his entire face in green fire, and burning the left side of his face completely to the bone. The fires continuing to burn as he roared and thrashed around in obvious pain, killing the remnants of my zombie rats in his thrashing.

“Oh fuck...” I muttered as I barely managed to dodge a lance made of psychic energy, and then had to dodge around it again. I ran over to his body, where he is laying on the ground, panting, trying to regenerate the damage that happened. I dodge, and he cries in pain as his Psychic Spear slams into the side of his own skull, which I had been running towards. Thankfully, I was immune to his direct mind attacks thanks to the Mind Guard skill I had bought.
As I charged forward, a large group of mindflayers from their nearby city all came over in lock-step, making me sweat as I realized that the monster I was fighting was going to feed on them to refuel his regeneration! I dodged another Psychic Spear and leaped up onto the skull portion of the boss. I dove through the empty eye socket, and landed on the brain, screaming as I swung wildly with my scythe.

I had not fully considered what I was doing when I jumped on a BRAIN of a madness demon... The Brain grew tentacles and attacked me! Meanwhile, the boss started to regenerate all the damage I was doing thanks to absorbing the mindflayers whom he had summoned with his Mind Control ability. The boss started to stand up and walk towards the city, intent on restoring himself to full health, and I managed to snag a part of the skull so I wasn’t just sliding around inside him.
I watched my MP ticking upward towards maximum. If there was going to be any way out of this situation, it would need to be done soon, especially if I wanted to spare the mindflayers in the city whom might be interested in peace. The likelihood of peace was small, considering they were the ones who summoned this beast of a divine class monster, but did that really mean he should let this monster kill them?
He took another look at the warehouse sized brain, and his scythe. “I’ll have to use multiple Death Spirals in order to try to cut through this thing...” I tried to cut through the brain with my scythe and blinked in shock as it dented in and sprung back, pushing my scythe back. “Shit, that thing’s resilient.”
I dodged a tentacle that was attacking towards me from the brain! “Fuck! The brain has its own tentacles!?” I dodged around the wild strikes as I attacked the brain again. I grunted as one wrapped around me. I resulted to a Deathbolt to sever the tentacle, which made a huge shriek echo from the boss I was inside, and deafened me for a full minute! I sighed weakly as I started to channel my power into the attack I was building up, pulling in my MP, TP, and even the special Karma Points, knowing Karmic damage was my best shot at damaging this creature.
“KARMIC SPIRAL!” I swung the scythe in a large spiral as I watched waves of flickering black and white waves come off my scythe, bouncing off the inside of the skull, and slicing cleanly into the grey matter in front of him. The roar of pain from the Minor Cthulu renewed my deafened status, as well as inflicted some actual physical damage upon me, but not very much.
Ali’is’oi’ack’rhu’gha fell to its knees, and started draining all the minds within the mindflayer city to try to restore its own health and power. I looked at my current KP, and sighed weakly. “Well, at least its being used for a good cause...” I drained all of my KP and channeled it through a Deathbolt directly at the center of the brain. “KARMA BURST!”
The light of the bolt was so vast, I ended up receiving the ‘Blind’ debuff for a full 2 minutes! Meanwhile, I could feel the world tilt, drop, and bounce as the skull cracked into the ground. When my sight returned, I pushed my way through the brain, and found that it had burned the brain away from a large, glowing golden energy core. I inspected it.

“Okay, so now to find a way out of this damned squid,” I muttered as I looked around. “Probably the nose or mouth would be the best, unless I can find the ear...”

Life of a Villain
Our lives are based on lies. Historically, heroes were supposed to be the role models we looked up to, but were they? Some of them steal other people's fiancées, murder people to make a point, and so on. If these are the heroes, then who was the villain? Does being killed by a hero make someone a villain? Has anyone had the experience of living the life of a villain? Were they truly the villains we were led to believe they were? --------------------------------- Follow Andy's journey as he is transmigrated to the world of Cultivation. It was the same world he had read before being transmigrated.Furthermore, he discovered himself in the body of Lu An, the first villain, who was killed by the main character of the book.

8 198Vlad The Impaler (VAMPIRE-ELF)
Count Dracula wakes up after 2000 years and the only thing he wants, desires and yearns for is to find her and make her his ;the woman he had been promised through years and years of prophecy. Yet this elf princess who captured his soul by just breathing comes with a lot of baggage in the form of curses and a destiny given mission to kill him. Erinna is the most powerful elf to have ever been born and stands by her duty. She doesn't care for fabled prophecies making her mate to the most evil tyrant to ever walk the earth which does not make sense in itself since a union between a vampire and elf will result in a curse that would wipe out both races. The only prophecy she believed was the one that said she'd kill him.What are these two going to do especially when Dracula hungers and yearns for Erinna with a desire bordering on insanity? Will she be able to fight the uncontrollable attraction and bond she has with him and not succumb to her darkest desires?I obviously suck at summaries. Just read the book.Beta Reader @LightningThiefGirl
