Year 11 of the Human Calendar - Ruins of Heavenly Phoenix City - Center of the great crater
(Tang POV)
Two silver auras obstruct my return.
“Stop it, this is not the time to be fighting“ Tang
They seem to be a pair of surviving guards from some checkpoint.
“You have the nerve to order us?“ Silver rank cultivator A
“You trash!“ Silver rank cultivator B
They pointed their spears at us and sped up.
“...I will free you of this cursed cultivation world“ Tang
While supporting Linjian with my left arm, I take my sword and take a step forward just before their attack connects.
“!!!“ Silver rank cultivator A
“!!!“ Silver rank cultivator B
And I cut their heads with one slash.
[SILVER RANK GRADE 3 DEFEATED, MIND EXPERIENCE OBTAINED]
[SILVER RANK GRADE 2 DEFEATED, MIND EXPERIENCE OBTAINED]
I hope their souls find peace someday.
“...“ Tang
Even if they are no match for me, I am too tired to fight right now. I need to go back.
I start climbing up the crater in the direction of the Holy Land of Xue.
......
...
Even if the explosion didn't reach outside the training grounds, the shockwave was strong enough to destroy everything outside of it.
“WHHAAA!“ Child
“UGGH!“ Man under rubles
“What? Where? How?“ Puzzled woman
I cant stop now, tired and alone I cant do anything here.
“...“ Tang
I have to keep going.
...
I am now in front of the walls.
“They abandoned their positions...“ Tang
The array keeping the spiritual creatures away works by amplifying the intimidation aura of the city lord, without him, the arrays are useless.
“This can no longer be called a city“ Tang
I jumped the wall and kept going.
...
On the way home, I found a group of five spiritual creatures. Two Bronze rank spiritual Boars and three Silver rank spiritual Bears.

“Whiiiiiigh!“ spiritual Boars
“ROOARRR!“ spiritual Bears
They come at me.
“...“ Tang
I get ready my sword While I keep Linjian in my back.
I will not stop here.
......
...
(Yue POV)
There have passed hours since I started, but could keep at it for some more.
“Now for my next song...“ Yue
“FELLOW RESIDENTS!!!“ Tang
“!!!“ Yue
A Tang covered in blood, appeared at the other side of the crowd.
“THE ANOINTED KING DEFEATED THE CITY LORD OF THE HEAVENLY PHOENIX CITY WHILE THE CELEBRATION TOOK PLACE!“ Tang
What!
“BUT THAT DEMON LORD DECIDED TO TAKE HIS CITY WITH HIM!“ Tang
What about master? What about the people?!
“WE NEED TO HELP THEM, PLea...se...“ Tang
After saying that he dropped on the ground.
“TANG!!!“ Yue
I jumped off the platform in his direction.
“Tang are you okay? What happened to master?“ Yue
I kneel to touch his right cheek.
“He is... fine... he is with Qianxun......“ Tang
He lost consciousness.
“I will take a look“ Shaolan
“Substance Maker - Analyze“ Shaolan
“...“ Yue
I wait for her to speak.
“He is fine, he just exhausted his stamina“ Shaolan
That is a relief... but I need to do something else right now.
“Shaolan, can I leave the defense of this land to you?“ Yue
“Yes, of course“ Shaolan
“Thanks“ Yue
I leave Tang in the ground and I stood.
“FELLOW RESIDENTS!!!“ Yue
I spoke in the same way Tang did.
“IN THE PAST THE ANOINTED KING CAME TO RESCUE US IN OUR DARKEST TIMES, EVEN THOUGH HE DID NOT HAVE ANY OBLIGATION TO DO SO!“
“NOW IT IS OUR TIME TO DO THE SAME!“ YUE
Determined glances appeared in the people.
“EVERY ADULT IN THIS KINGDOM, FOLLOW ME!“ Yue

“YEEEEEAHHHH!!!“ Residents of the Holy Land of Xue
“TODAY WE WILL SPREAD THE LIGHT OF THE HOLY LAND OF XUE!!!“ Yue
......
...
About a thousand new people were in front of the statue of the goddesses of life and peace.
“This is the Holy Land of Xue, a kingdom of life and peace“ Yue
I spoke to them.
“This is a great change to everyone of you, I know that“
Only commoners decided to come here, every cultivator went to other cities.
“But I can ensure you that this is a positive change, see it for yourselves“
Ranran and others brought food, clothes, and keys.
“These keys will unlock your houses in the Northwest district, I hope you like them“
Only time will tell if they can adapt to this new style of life.
......
...
I was inside the Alaslamia clinic.
“Qianxun, how are they?“ Yue
Tang and master were unconscious on beds.
“Tang is only tired, tomorrow he will wake up. But...“ Qianxun
Master...
“...“ Linjian
His body was missing two ears and one leg below knee.
“The Anointed king is...“ Qianxun

8 200As the Godking Wills
The Empire and the Church span almost the entirety of the known world, absent some pockets of lawlessness and the realms of the deceiver. They are governed as a despotic theocracy, ruled in name by the solitary and omnipotent God, Al'Shazan.In practice, Al'Shazan is bored, flighty, cruel and has little interest in ruling the Empire. Instead the Empire is run by the High Priest, Minister of the Treasury, and the Knight Commander of the inquisition. Their job is to make sense of the contradictory nonsense spewed forth by their living God while simultaneously ruling the greatest nation that the world has ever known. The entire time, they have to maintian the facade that Al'Shazan is a benevolent and loving God in order to maintain morale in the general populace. --------- The actual genre for this is more along the lines of a Fantasy Political Comedy/Drama/Thriller. It will not be 'crunchy' (minimal action, minimal descriptions of powers/abilities) but instead be focusing on world building and political maneuvering. As a warning, it is fairly dark.
8 166Re: Now I'm a Demon, So What?
Description An Isekai-Oriented LitRPG lite, Game of Thrones type (HBO version) set in alternate-Italy during the Renaissance. Warning! This story contains strong sexual themes. Most of it is incidental sexy stuff as opposed to romantic. There is also some sexual violence and themes of revenge and trauma. Synopsis Moments after being born, the cambion began to grow at an alarming rate and everyone wanted to kill him. He knew there was much he had forgotten... he had a life before. He longed to remember it, but the memory eluded him. Truly, this was a fantasy world of might and magic, but it felt familiar somehow. At any rate, the first priority is to survive. And that meant finding something to eat... Re: Now I'm a Demon, So What? is a story about an outworlder main character, who (as of this moment) discovers he absorbs the powers and aspect of that which he consumes through his devour ability. There are a number of other interesting characters you get to meet as the political landscape is unveiled. Bonus! You are encouraged to post comments regarding what you would like to see show up in future chapters! I would like this fiction to be shaped in large part by reader input, so please don't be shy! Thanks for reading this and hope to get to know you through the comments! Oh, and be nice! What I'm posting here is basically a first draft. If anything important in the early chapters gets edited I'll let you know in the author comments. Your feedback definitely gets weighed to help make the work better.
