《Empress' Evolution》96. Battle Frenzy
Advertisement
The Bleeding Rage Valley used to have more varied daemons living within amongst its vast lands.
The quadrupedal hunter beasts like the [Black Rock Tigers] dominating the north — the trudger of the plains the [Centaurs] and [Tikbalangs] and their rivals the [Satyrs] and [Fauns] fighting for dominance over the West — the [Two Heads] Dominating the South-West — lastly the [Werewolves] ruling over the entirety of the East and South East.
Like normal biomes, there was a balance to these groups, and they all lived, fighting and fending off one another. None ruled above all else, and the humans were kept at bay and couldn’t even touch them.
Everything changed when the Tyrant Blood Gorilla attacked.
The Tyrant Blood Gorilla dominated appeared in the Central Regions of the Valley, and with its overwhelming strength and superior numbers, it took over both the North and the Western regions of the Bleeding Rage Valley.
It first dominated the Black Rock Tigers that were less in number. The fight lasted for six months.
After the Tigers were used to grind levels, the beast turned its attention West after killing and taking everything.
The Western area of the Bleeding Rage Valley was then embroiled in a bloody war against the Tyrant Blood Gorilla and the Tyrant Apes. The fight lasted for two years.
I was expected it to take over the Bleeding Rage Valley, but the West proved to be formidable and halted its advance. For the last six months, the Tyrant Blood Gorilla had been steadily taking over the Valley while it rested in the central regions without any fear of the other daemons. Slowly, it allowed its forces to grow.
Though the Bleeding Rage Valley was only a day away from the nearest city, the Hunters Association had still failed to even attempt a subjugation.
Stronghold 3 and its strongest Hunters had been going around dealing with direr situations for the last few years since the influx of Gates opening.
The encroachment of the Tyrant Apes and the Tyrant Blood Gorilla continued till this day. It may have slowed down, but its attempts to break through the southern regions went on. But, it was not just the Tyrants.

Another force was growing to a terrifying degree.
Without any scrambling for control over the South East Region, the Two Heads exploded in numbers. They grew to a sizable degree, and their strength grew enough to fight off the Werewolves.
With time the fights only grew fiercer, and with the Tyrant Blood Gorilla and the Tyrant Apes suddenly showed their fangs by taking over the Eastern Regions from the Werewolves, the unthinkable happened—
—the dumb brutes grew and eventually began pushing the Werewolves back, seizing territories, and attacking the farms sustaining the Wolves. Slowly, their numbers grew, and the Werewolves dwindled.
The injured Werewolves failed to keep their forces in check, the death tolls piled up, the wounded grew weaker, and exhaustion gripped their ankles.
Even a few weeks ago, the last of the Meat Cores the Werewolves had was seized by the Two Heads. The growing forces of the conquering Tyrants and the ever-explosive growth of the Two Heads placed the Werewolves in a dire situation.
Their previously over 500 Tribesmen dwindled to a mere less than 300—their Elites to two dozen.
They were struggling to even keep on living, and then even their remaining Meat Cores were taken.
The source of food the Werewolves had was stripped from them, their warriors tried to get it back, but their already battered bodies and spirits could not hold up. They all crumbled under the mountain of fatigue piling upon them.
They were defeated, and the Two Heads were only waiting for the right time to eradicate their entire Race.
It was then, from out of nowhere, came a lass bearing food and goodwill. On his hand was nothing but kindness, his heart empathy, yet his spirit burned like that of a warrior!
“KILL THEM ALL!” Chief shouted as his eyes moved without stopping, “Killa move forward and disrupt the flow of their reinforcements. Shamans create a Swamp to stall their movements. Give the Combat Pixies an opening to utilize!”
Chief managed the battlefield. With his Strategist Eyes, he could eradicate the enemy forces but backed with the gained knowledge, he could now lessen possible casualty. Slowly, he was blossoming into a great General.

The Werewolf Leader led her own force. The Werewolves tore through the ranks of the Two Heads. Weakened, hungry, and fatigued, yet they pushed through, clawing both fate and at their enemies.
“Earth’s Grace (500 MP) (S)” Lilith would cast spells from afar on individuals showing signs of lethargy. Most of her targets would be the Werewolves at the front, Lilith actually wanted to use [Solar Healing] to conserve her mana, but it would also help the Two Heads due to its wide casting area.
Lilith’s mana was in full blast as she quietly helped the fight standing from atop a branch. Her hand was outstretched. Her fingers manipulated the earth, creating potholes under the Two Heads and commanding the trees to save the soldiers and help kill the Two Heads.
The [Free Skill] consumed a lot of her stamina, “What’s that?”
A barrier of dozens of high-leveled Two Heads gathered in front of them. These Two Heads stood their ground and prepared to hold the Army off until the ones behind them could prepare.
Lilith smiled, knowing that this sight signified the base of the Two Heads drew near. However, she furrowed her brows at the presence of the Army slowing down, as Chief, even hesitating to move forward.
“They formed the Slaughter Line! STOP! We need to approach it with caut—”
“Do not stop!” Lilith shouted, wanting to ride the momentum their forces carried. The Army heard that tiny voice, and without even hesitating, they passed the stalling Werewolves.
“We need to retreat!” The Werewolf Leader turned back, knowing what the Two Heads were capable of doing. However, her eyes dilated as she saw Lilith passing her by without a moment’s notice.
Lilith crossed a significant distance, stopping only a couple of meters away from the Slaughter Line. She floated atop the Two Heads; two lights appeared on each of her hand.
“Killa, get ready!”
“Yes, Priestess!”
Storm Element (A)
Great Earth Element (A)
Dual elemental manipulation appeared.
Lilith called upon her Active Skills.
Blaze Blitz (400 MP) (S) [x3]
Sparks flew before the appearance of 36 balls of fire that flew towards the Slaughter Line.
When the Blaze Blitz drew ever closer, the Two Heads were already prepared to take the balls of flames and then killed the Army. But Lilith was not done.
Just before the Blaze Blitz came into contact with the Two Heads, she cast another skill.
Greater Earth Wall (700 MP) (S)
A majority of her remaining was used to create walls right in front of the Two Heads.
BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!
The Blaze Blitz came into contact with the Greater Earth Wall creating web-like cracks.
Killa appeared at the forefront of the pack, “BREAK!!”
BOOM!
His fist came into contact with the wall; it crumbled and showered the Two Heads with the rubbles. The Two Heads blocked the debris flying towards them, and the moment they opened their eyes, Chief was already before them.
“Peek-a-boo.”
SLASH!
With a single slash, he killed three, and with their death, the rest of the ravaging Armies arrived like an unstoppable tide.
“I CAN SEE THEIR VILLAGE! PREPARE YOURSELVES! TODAY! WE WILL ERADICATE THEM!” Chief led the charge at the cave turned tiny village right in front of their group.
Solar Healing (2500 MP) (S)
With a massive Area of Effect spell as her final gift to her people, Lilith fell from the skies. Luna caught her, and in a manner of seconds, the newly rejuvenated Army went to decimate the Two Heads inside their village.

The Laptop Hero (Portal/Isekai LitRPG)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - April 2022 Silas got summoned to another world—by a group of kids attending magic school who seemed rather unhappy with the results of their ritual. After a brief glimpse of his summoners Silas woke in the town dump. Unable to speak the local language, a misunderstanding escalated and before long Silas wound up in a jail cell, the locals having confiscated all his worldly possessions aside from his laptop, which had formed some strange bond with him. Now he can summon his laptop at will, and he can view his Status, level up, and gain powerful skills and magic as if he were some character in a video game, which is great and everything, but all Silas really wants to do is sit in a dark room and play games on his laptop. Only, life isn't a game, and Silas needs to get his act together because everyone else is playing for keeps. Or does he? Maybe for Silas life is just one big game now, with everyone else stuck playing by his rules. Assorted Disclaimers, in no particular order: I am only posting this on RoyalRoad.com, so if you find my story elsewhere it was not posted by me. Please do let me know! While I do consider this a progression fantasy, and have tagged it as such, Silas's Status improvements will not necessarily proceed in a linear fashion. His RPG stats will have ups and downs, exploits and nerfs, periods of growth and stagnation. Such is the life of a gamer, to be held under the thumb of the all powerful devs, or in this case a certain goddess devoted to the idea of Balance. SIlas himself should learn and grow, improving and progressing in areas where he struggles, or rather, to show such is my goal. The story is told from multiple points of view. While other PoVs will come and go, Silas shall remain the only lead character. The world Silas finds himself on is not a nice place. Expect him to encounter gore and traumatizing content and bad people who do bad things for selfish (or possibly noble) reasons from time to time. Some characters will use profanity, however due to cultural differences the curse words used will differ from those used in our corner of reality, so I'm not including the profanity content warning. Silas himself isn't one for foul language. No explicit sexual content here. This novel is intended for mature readers, however, and will include mature topics, including, but not limited to, sex, violence, death, and taxes. No harem. Might be an eventual romantic interest, possibly even some competitive jealousy, yet as his story begins Silas is too overwhelmed with other concerns to consider long term plans. Musophobics might want to steer clear of this story. Same goes for turophobics. You have been warned. Keep in mind, however, if my other disclaimers didn't make this clear, I only have the faintest of outlines at the moment. This story will take me where it will. My goal with this story is to write it to the end, something of a long-term writing exercise, with the hope others might take an interest in my work and encourage me to keep at it. I've started a number of works before, even finished a few, but this is the first time I've shared any work in a public forum. My temporary cover was made by me, in GIMP using public domain images. If you can do better I'll happily accept your submission and give credit for your work here!
