Been working for 18 hours.. Darn it....

Chapter 38
"darn.. I still can't catch that monkey."
At first I only want to use pure pyshical power. But it seemed that it was useless. I have to accept the fact that my psyhical ability is low.
Let me take it up a notch and activates my power. Using the transformation ability I transform into the fastest animal on land. A cheetah. I ran as fast as I can but that monkey is still faster than me.
I must think of something.
"No matter what you do, you won't be able to catch him."
K.K talks to me while sitting leisurely.
"How do you know about that?"
"because that monkey is an illusion created by me."
"What?"
So afterall this time I just chased some illusion? I activates my eye see trough power and the monkey dissipiate.
"So, how that monkey stops my attack earlier?"
"Illusion magic isn't that simple. If an illusion tells you that there's an orange, you will believe there's an orange."
"but, since when I'm caught? No, since when we're all caught in your illusion?"
"Since the beginning you walked in the paved road."
Darn, I should've know this better. I looked back at the paved path and it turns only one km away from the starting points. If only we realized it faster and use our eye power.
"So, what is your purpose by doing this?"
"I just want to test your power and look at your ability. You're lacking everywhere."
I'm now shouting with rage towards him.
"So, is this all means nothing for you? All of my effort are vain?"
K.K chukled and said.
"Of course not. In that practice I also noticed your power. You have a mysterious ability that will turn you into the most powerful man in the world."

After I hear that of course I'm happy but I can't blindly trust him. Afterall he makes me spend more than twelve hours chasing illusion monkey.
"And how am I going to be the most powerful man in the world?"
"Here, drink this and let's see if you can fulfill my expectation."
He snap his finger and a bowl filled with red substance appear in my hand. What is this red liquid? Judging from the smell, is this blood?
"are you telling me to drink blood?"
K.K shows an amused face.
"Whoa, you figure it out fast. Now, do you dare to drink that?"
Now, no one can tell me anything. No one here is able to tell me is this the right things to do or not because the girls are all asleep.
"Are you affraid?"
K.K said that asking me with his tone full of intimidation.
"Don't you came here to became strong? Don't you want to be worthy of being the demon hero?"
There's something wierd here. How did he know that I want to be strong? How did he know I want to be worthy as the hero of the demon?
"H-H-How do you know?"
"Oh! I know everything weak boy. Everything about you. What you feel, what you think, you can't hide anything from me."
Hearing him saying nonsense, I'm now feeling something strange. Anger? No. Rage? No. Is this, fear? Am I feeling affraid? Even in front of the demon king I didn't feel something like this. In front of this mysterious K.K. It seemed that I already dancing in his palm from the start.
"Don't think too hard boy. Just drink that."
Darn it. If I keep cowarding like this I won't be able to change. I muster up my courage and grip the bowl hard.

This is maybe the chance to prove that I'm willing to take the risk. The chance to prove my seriousness in becoming the demon hero.
*gulp*
With a motion, I drink all of the blood in the bowl.
I feel my conciousness fade.
I feel that I'm losing all my strength.
With the last sanity within me I heard K.K voice.
"Well done boy. You're so easy to fooled."
Did I just make the wrong choice?

March 16, 2021 - Hiatus note: I will come back to this story! I'm really struggling with it, though. It's been a number of years and I kind of forgot what the original outline was. I still remember the main path, but not any of the details, because I stupidly didn't write an outline. Progress is being made. I'd like a very decent sized buffer before I start posting again. Don't want to get hopes up only to immediately disappoint! ----- Amy Barnes, an aspiring chemical researcher, finds herself dying from cancer. One of her most desperate prayers is answered in a way that she'd never dreamed possible, and she finds herself living a new life as a dungeon. Warning: Violence, morbidity Cover: Taken from here, courtesy of www.pexels.com by photographer @tookapic. Author's Note: I've read some dungeon core stories on here, and they've tickled my fancy. I've thought up a whole story, start to finish, and thought it'd be a blast to put it into words. Other than the violent and morbid aspects, this story is suitable for children. Aside from the vocabulary, that is. I will avoid the temptation to have any cursing, sexuality, or gore. Excessive gore, I suppose - it is a dungeon story, after all. I’ll do a little research from time to time, but this story will not have a great deal of rigor. I’ve made Amy’s knowledge comparable to my own for that reason. There’s a few things she knows more about than I do, and a few things that she knows less about. Unlike me, she doesn’t have access to Google - it’s a non issue for her to be more knowledgeable than me, on occasion :P This story does not use the same magic system that I’ve used in either Sorcery in Boston or A Summoner’s Confession. This one is mostly intention based, and designed to be easier access for people who are more used to the idea of, “It’s magic, therefore it works” kind of thinking. Do note that Amy is, in most senses of the term, overpowered. This goes along with the usual dungeon core stories. She’s not more powerful than other dungeons per se, but she does have knowledge and intelligence that puts them to shame. I thought about doing this in a LitRPG style, but systems take balance, and I wanted this to be pure fun to write.This story was inspired from a few sources. Despite the title, it wasn’t really inspired by Of Mice and Men, though some of the themes match. Rather, I’ve taken inspiration from a few dungeon core novels on Royal Road Legends for the main idea. Many conventions of dungeon core stories have been perverted from the genre, however. I’ve taken my usual science-loving self to town to play around with the powers, and I can only hope you have half as much fun reading this as I have had writing it.
8 89Modern Deity
[18+] Kyte, a student that is days away from graduating high school, ends up encountering a group of people he despises the most. What Kyte never thought was that miracles can happen at any moment, even if they seem to appear too late. After obtaining something that gives him the power and courage to defend himself and get revenge, Kyte realizes that letting his emotions get the better of him might lead him to his demise. *Rated Mature for: Descriptive gore, sexual content, and language. *This is not a light-hearted story, despite some interactions with characters. My story is a natural plot-reveal over time. It takes more than one chapter to create a story.

8 169The Due
Every sailor knows the tale of Davy Jones' Locker. That place drowned sailors are sent to, ever resting on sea's bed. Some tales recount of a ghostly ship, the Flying Dutchman. Many a story has spawned from these two tales. Countless retellings mixing in their own fictions. But all stories spawn with a kernel of truth to them, and the story of Davy Jones is no exception. Those who've met the legendary seaman and his ghostly ship might call him a ferryman, escorting the drowned to their respective afterlives. Others might call him a devil, meting punishment on those deserving. The true story is always slightly different. Davy Jones is a ferryman, but not one for the afterlife, as Walter finds out. No, Davy Jones manages those who die at sea while in debt, and Walter died with a lot of debt. Unable to pay, Davy puts Walter to work. The specter has just the job for the dead college graduate. Another god, Sod, needs an afterlife for his new world. Davy tasks Walter with the job. Suddenly, Walter finds himself having to run a fledgling underworld with little instruction from Sod. To top it off, the denizens of Sod's world have their own ambitions to achieve godhood, and they won't take kindly to Sod's newest employee shaking up the status quo. [Traumatizing Content tag is up just to let everyone know this will be a story that deals with different themes of death. Some of them won't be nice and so better to be safe than sorry.]
