《The Demon Lord’s Successor》1: The Summoning
Advertisement
You open your eyes and find yourself lying in the middle of a grand hall built from black marble. It’s dark and eerie despite light coming from countless chandeliers hung from the ceiling by entrails, tied together like a rope.
“Aargh!” You jump up and realize that you’re buck naked.
“Pardon for that—your clothes rotted away some time ago,” you hear a soft female voice.
Then you see a blonde girl come out of the shadows and walk up to you. Your attention quickly switches from her gigantic F-cup mammaries covered by a disproportionally small bra to the brown curved horns on her head and legs which are covered by fur with hoofs for feet. There’s no mistake about it—you have found yourself a minotaur monster girl.
“Allow me,” She snaps her fingers and robes materialize on your body. “We must hurry! Please, follow me.”
Still dazed and confused you follow the blonde. The last thing you remember is being trampled in an otaku stampede during a convention. So what is this place? Why is there a friendly monster girl in front of you? Have you died? Are you in a coma? With any luck, you have been revived in a fantasy world.
“Things are worse than you might realize,” the big-breasted minotaur said as they both exited the hall and walked down a long, dim corridor lit by torches placed on stone walls. Some of the wooden doors barely held on the rusted hinges. “Our great Lord is already one foot in the grave and the kingdom is in ruins. It took all the powers he graciously gave me to summon you, a worthy successor.”
You both reach a heavy metal door at the end of the corridor. The minotaur girl opens the door, its hinges squeak painfully. She walks in and you follow. The room is lit with a single candle, placed on a table next to a bed of nails.

After taking a couple of steps on a squishy, slimy surface you realize that the floor, the walls, and the ceiling are all made from guts and meat. You freeze, unable to move.
“Come here, my child!” You hear a frail, old voice coming from the bed. You feel a warmth spreading through your body, like after drinking a cup of hot cocoa out in the blizzard. You are able to move again and approaching the bed you see a long, shriveled corpse. It doesn’t even have eyes in its sunken, empty sockets.
“Give me your hand!” the corpse commanded, despite its mouth not moving.
As if moved by an outside force you reach to the corpse and place your hand on its shoulder.
Suddenly you feel a surge of energy go from your hand through your entire body. You scream out at the overwhelming feeling. But it's not pain. Rather, your whole body tingles and your heart beats faster, because you feel magical power fill your body and seep into every cell of your organism.
[Congratulations you have gained a class – Demon Lord]
[Level up!]
[Congratulations! You are now a level 2 Demon Lord!]
“Take care of my daughters! Good luck.. my... son...” the corpse slowly whispers and lets out one final sigh. It is dead.
“It is an honor, My Lord!” the minotaur girl exclaims and kneels before you.

The Shards of Sylvia's Soul
In the little village of Nyberg, Sylvia is dreaming of a future with Rebecca at her side. Together, they could move overseas. But when bandits attack, all of her tender dreams turn to ashes. Forced out of her home, Sylvia forges new bonds with the Fri, the women who have taken it upon themselves to protect their little corner of the world. She also meets Afi, a strange bandit with a stern face and a soft heart. Saving each other from certain demise, they join in a bond which irreversibly ties their souls together. So bonded, they attempt to settle down. When a distant heir to the Crown asks for aid to reunite the country, Sylvia sees her chance to finally right all the wrongs committed against her family. In the pursuit of the throne, Afi and Sylvia come to risk their very lives. Sylvia uncovers the relationship between soul, magic, and divinity itself, but even in research, there is peril. It is not an easy task to balance the strain on her soul with the demands of the upcoming battle. In this world, the soul is not an incorporeal concept. To the contrary, the human soul is a physical object, an organ which resides in the chest of each individual. It is a great source of strength, but also of vulnerability. Hardship can leave scratches and blemishes, or even break the soul in two. The soul is each person's connection to divinity, to the magic which is ubiquitous to the world. It enables the cultivation of gods, but old legends warn of demons emerging in the presence of corrupt intention, and of hollow warriors, with no soul at all. There are two sides to every page. Update ScheduleNew chapters are in the works. ScopeThree to four books in total are planned.Book 1: "Fri Women" Chapters 1-64. Find the paperback and e-book here.

Noble
"Then, let joyous news be delivered to those who pass their lives in peace, For it takes only one twist of fate to throw their lives upside down And for those who unfortunate enough to encounter the whims of fate, Let it be reminded to them, that even their lives repeat a hundred times..." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lys Ravenlicht was no hero, nor was he a brave man. He was someone who had the better things in life and figured that he'd tread upon the path his late father had prepared for him as an appointed noble and a politician in his home country and he had no business whatsoever of being a hero. And yet, it took only one twist, one twist of fate, before all plans he had laid out for the rest of his life went down the tubes. Join him as he traverse the lands of Fymia, where the arcane had faded into the annals of time and yet persist in the most mundane of things. And as he found himself dragged deeper into a catastrophic series of events that would change his perception of the world, and the course of history for the world itself... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author's comments: The story was meant to be a satire of the Japanese animanga tropes.... until it got out of hand to the point I'm not sure it's a satire anymore. I hope you can find enjoyment in it nonetheless.
