《The Darkness In Your Mind》V2 - Ch 7 Three demon lords and their plans
Advertisement
We got in the carriage and began the ride home, it was a hilarious sight what I saw, it was actually kind of beautiful due to how amazingly funny it was. On the way to the manor I look out the window and see 13 insanely buff men racing after us because we're going pretty fast, and damn it feels so good to laugh at it, oh I've missed my happiness so much.
We arrive at the manor after a 20 minute ride and everyone follows me inside after I say goodbye to Layson. once I enter the manor I am greeted by Lano waiting in front of the stairs, he says "Welcome home my lord, if you don't mind me asking who are these men?" I say with a genuine smile "This is Garal Savon and his company, they are going to be the ones to build for us from now on."
Lano nods and begins to say "Very good my lord, you should probably contact Rein Strevus to get some building ma-" He pauses for a moment before saying "M-My lord, did you just smile?" It seems he noticed that smile wasn't faked, I chuckle a bit and then say "Yeah, it seems that my happiness has returned already, anyway continue what you were saying."
Lano's eyes widen but go back to normal shortly after and then he smiles and says "Ahem, as I was saying you should probably contact Rein Strevus so you can get some building materials for them, such as stone and other things since we don't have anything to build homes quite yet." I say "Indeed, alright you all stay here for a few minutes while I go contact Rein."
I pause for a moment then continue "I'm sure he can get us materials as soon as tomorrow morning, Lano will set you guys up some rooms for now, some of you will have to share bedrooms until tomorrow." They nod and then I go upstairs and enter the demon lord communication crystal room and begin to contact Rein once again.

The illusion of him appears a few seconds later and he says "Hello Brine, I'm surprised your contacting me so soon after the first time, what is it that you wanted to talk about?" I say "I need enough building materials to make a village I have already found some builders, could you send me the materials?"
He then says "Alright, I shall arrange for the materials to be at your manor by tomorrow morning." I nod and then say "That is all I needed, sorry to bother you for such a small thing." He shakes his head and then says "No, you aren't bothering me so no need to apologize, well then I shall take my leave now."
After he says that the illusion disappears and then I go tell the others to start making some buildings tomorrow. Meanwhile in the castle of the second demon lord on bad terms with Rein Strevus, Baphen Kisom, the demon lord of illusions, is talking with someone and seems to be plotting something.
Baphen says "So have you discovered some information that could be useful to us yet?" The person who he is talking to appears to just be some random demon "Yes my lord." Baphen says "Alright then, tell me what you've learned." The demon nods and then says "We have managed to discover the location of Brine Dark's parents."
Baphen grins evilly and then says "Good, we shall head out in a few months after sending a letter, let's give him a surprise shall we?" Meanwhile in the castle of one of the demon lords on good terms with Rein Strevus, the demon lord of craft, Goatus Craftum, is standing in front of a forge of sorts while holding some black cloth in his hands as well as light grey fur and a clear see through stone.

Goatus says "Alright, this demon lord is accustomed to cloaks, so I shall make him the finest cloak that he will ever set his eyes on, I will even put a empty magic stone in the middle so that he can utilize magic to protect him along with any other type of magic he may want to imbue it with, now then I suppose it's time I start huh?"
Once that is said, Goatus starts forging some type of clothing in the odd colored lava of his forge. Everyone has started working on their plans they have, and days pass, which turn into weeks and before long two months have passed.

The Perks of Immortality
This story will no longer be updated. After living decades and dying hundreds of times, Kegan has learned that he has finally passed some test that the cruel spirit had given him. Now, Kegan has the ability to gain “perks” that can make his life much easier. He is looking forward to finally having an easy life with the new perks he has earned. Rules to keep me honest for the perk system: Spoiler: Spoiler 1. The purpose of perks is to help the MC live longer and do new things each life. 2. The perks can be unlocked by getting hurt or killed. 3. The perks can be unlocked by putting in a lot of effort that isn’t easily duplicated in a new life. 4. Perks are generally beneficial enhancements to the MC’s body. 5. Perk costs can be lowered with more impressive achievements to unlock them. 6. Perk costs can be lowered by repeated death or injury from something the perk protects against. 7. Perk costs are increased for quality of life improvements that don’t benefit survival. I want to avoid one of the pitfalls I see for other LitRPG stories where the game elements barely relate to the story, or offer very little information. If people are skipping over and not reading the perks then I'm doing things wrong. So I promise to try and make the perks interesting, sometimes humorous, informative, and relevant to the story.Cover art by http://dertypaws.com/

Worse, she can't understand why she's needed in this world where the technology level is about equivalent to that of Earth's Middle Ages. Clearly, most people can barely read or count and even the other gods are of no help. In fact, most of them are rather dangerous idiots. If she can't convince them to help her change the status quo, she'll just have to gather her allies and followers and make some major changes to the system. 21 NOV 2020:I may update all the systemshelper interface to match better with a programming language already out there. I'm thinking either C++ or Python. 20 SEP 2020: I update at least once a week - typically on the weekend. When I have more time, I'll update more. Also, note that I added a few more Tags that I thought was relevant.

Spellcraft
This is the revised and rewritten version of Spellcraft! Explore the world, meet new and interesting monsters, and kill them for their loot. It was a tale as old as gaming, and it bored Conlan to death. He always had more fun finding little chinks in a game’s systems. He loved figuring out how to exploit those systems and turn them to his advantage. And ever since the release of Lotus, revolutionary hardware that finally delivered the dream of stepping into a fully immersive VR world, he'd had more items on his game breaking agenda than ever before! Lately he’d been using those skills to mess with Horizon Online Entertainment. He figured screwing those bastards over was the least he owed the corporate pricks for killing his sister in one of their Lotus VR modules. They had too much money to face justice from the courts, but he was hellbent on destroying them in the court of public opinion! Only there’s only so much he can do to fight Horizon from inside their games, and a whole new digital battlefield is opening up: Lotus Online. The greatest and most immersive VRMMO ever created, the ultimate expression of the Lotus hardware made by the masters who created that hardware, and Horizon is trying to invade that new world and take it over the same as they’ve taken over everything else! Yeah, not if Conlan and his best gaming buddy Kris have anything to say about it. Because Conlan has a secret weapon. He’s discovered something in Lotus no one else has: Spellcrafting. The chink in Lotus’s armor. He's always loved crafting, and he's discovered a system that might just allow him to take over the game world, kick Horizon out, and hit them right in the bottom line in the real world. Assuming he can survive all the invading Horizon bootlickers trying to kill him long enough to pull off the greatest exploit of his infamous game breaking career! Spellcraft is a 225,000 word GameLit novel that is totally finished. New chapters are released every other day!
