《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.

God complex
A hero is summoned to another world, vanquishes evil, yadda yadda, saves the kingdom and lives happily ever after. There is no such hero in this story. Just a desperate youth with great ambition and very little to lose. A zero to hero style story set in a country clearly inspired by modern USA with just as many issues and the minority of mages often pulling strings from the shadows. I am also hoping the whole thing won't turn out edgy enough to cut me. I want to rely on actual good writing rather than cheap powertrip gimmicks. edit: Please don't mind Zetari's salty review. He is quite literally making up any use of the torture and human experimentation trope and says MC is blank after 4 chapters where he conveniently stops reading just at the start of his first character development. For extra entertainment, I will be uploading chapters two at a time and compose a relevant poem through the chapter names. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
8 89Penance's Pursuit
This future sci-fi fantasy follows the progression of a few main characters as they navigate their unique spheres of life in the year 2242. The story focuses heavily on themes of guilt, personal failing, and penance. The conflict revolves around two main concepts: Man vs. Himself (Internal conflict) and Man vs Man (External conflict). The internal conflicts focus on many of the characters' inner demons and how each of them deal with the scars of the past. The external conflict centers around a mysterious criminal organization called Nexus that conducts human trafficking. There are three groups of main characters. The first group belong to a vigilante mercenary organization called Ab Aeterno. Titus, Venna, and Benjamin are Achilles team. This team is a part of Ab Aeterno's special forces branch which is designated Demon Stalkers. Their goal and mission is to perform assassinations, abductions, and destabilization operations on criminal organizations throughout the solar system. Their current mission places them directly in the path of Nexus. Titus interacted with them in his past and they seem to have unlimited reach, resources, and power. As the team faces this threat, old wounds will surface and dangerous connections to the past will emerge. The second group of characters are on the Mars colony. Randal Page is an analyst for a talent scout company on Mars. He is faced with the reality that the company he thought he was working for is in fact Nexus. His story centers around his coming to realize the duplicity of the company he works for and then his response to the startling realization of his own ignorant involvement. Also on Mars is a woman named FaRarra Njokko. She is a Nexus sex slave in a brothel on Mars and is known by the stage name of Stardust. She is striving to escape when her path crosses with Randal. The final main character is Preston Coretel. He is a monk with a mysterious and shady past. He is on the run from Nexus in more ways than one. He is seeking sanctuary on an abandoned monastery space station in order to avoid agents of Nexus and to atone for his previous involvement with Nexus.
