《Superficial Story》Chapter 23 - Half-Awaken Idiot
Advertisement
All of the gods are prostrating themselves. Sophia is trying to come up with an excuse.
[Sophia] - Your Majesty! Please forgive us for not waking you up earlier, we…
[God Emperor] - Enough! I will deal with this latter.
Now that I look better it doesn’t seem as if his body is moving at all.
It isn’t.
The hell is happening here?
[Answer]: Interference. Denied. The God Emperor has managed to wake his consciousness and a part of his mind, but not the rest of himself. This is the manifestation in front of you.
Does he have limited powers like this? Is he unable to take away my own powers?
[Answer]: Interference. Denied. The god emperor does have limited powers in this state. He is fully capable of punishing gods of King class.
Shit.
[God Emperor] - This damn needle pain in my mind again. Is this your doing?
Tsc.
I feel like a kid being reprehended by an adult.
Fuck it.
I won’t bow to this motherfucker.
Steel myself. Steel motherfucker, steel!
“Yeah. I’m here under a contract from the Fantasy Pantheon’s demons who are directly under the writers.”
[God Emperor] - The writer? The hell…
He’s looking upwards.
Then his faced turned into that of someone who just drunk something extremely bitter.
[God Emperor] - Y’are a trouble fer me. Get out of my universe. Now.
Ugh.
What pressure.
I’m sweating all over.
What are you, a western xerif or something?
[Answer]: Interference. Impossible to uncover the God Emperor’s previous incarnation.
“As if I was going to get out like this. Besides, I have a contract to uphold. I can’t get out, mr. Hypocrite Asshole.”
Thunder and lightning everywhere.
Yep.
Not the smartest move on my part.
[Emperor God] - What did you call me, son?!

“I’m not your son, old man. And you’re breaking so many pantheon rules I guess you won’t survive your next inspection. Not if I’m still here. And I will be here. So why don’t you calm that lazy ass of yours and talk to me like equals?”
[Emperor God] - EQUALS?! DO WE LOOK LIKE EQUALS, PUNY GOD?!
AAARRGH.
THIS SHIT HURTS!
MY EARS!
But hold it.
If I give up now that’s it.
The motherfucker will make me quit.
I can’t let him have this.
“You can fuck me; I can fuck you even worse. Isn’t this enough to make us equals, pall?! I won’t lose a level so soon, and even if I do, I will reach level 2 in the blink of an eye. But you have done a lot worse than just accumulating bad karma!”
That’s partially true.
I do have enough karma to make me lose a level. But I have good karma enough to compensate for that.
My extremely-efficient good-karma system of Hell, to where I send the souls of most of those who enter my dominions, is producing a LOT of rehabilitated souls.
Psychos turned civil, composed, stable people.
That kind of shit gives TONS of good karma.
So I have a large margin to my good-bad karma count.
[God Emperor] - You… you… rebellious…
“Me, me, YES, ME! I’m here now motherfucker! And don’t you think you can rule the place like you used to! Your little sister was the first, but I have my eyes on you!”
…
I shouldn’t have said that.
His face is stiff now.
Shit.
So close of winning the argument.
I had to give in to my impulses, didn’t I?!
[God Emperor] - Messiah, I, as God Emperor, now take away all of your powers and might. May you ravel amongst the mortals as a commoner and die like one of them!

8 152Living as a Demon
Jonathan was living the life of a normal human male in modern-day society, until he was rudely awakened one night by a summoning circle that ripped him out of his reality and dumped him into a new world filled with magic, demons, and…mouthy young orphan girls?! Now Jonathan must navigate the trials of playing guardian to a preteen, learning to unlock his inner demon, and somehow managing to find a dang pair of pants! Welcome! I'm E.O. Tenkey; thank you for considering Living as a Demon, my third released work here on Royal Road (following Not a Manga and Mr. Familiar)! Let's set some expectations, shall we? • Not much hard profanity (chapter 1 is the exception!)• Human MC! Our protagonist is a bona fide homo sapiens. Which is not to say there won't be demons, demonic powers, and what-have-you, but this isn't some grimdark exploration of the life and times of a nihilistic, amoral killing machine.• Slice of life. My previous works always ended up there, so might as well get ahead of the curve!• Weekly updates, and a completed story: I will post a single chapter per week on Wednesdays until the story is complete (extra chapters are rare, but do happen).

Adarra is a land ruled by a cruel minotaur empire. Kreet, the mountain kingdom, prevents vile lycan from spreading to the human cities beyond its walls. As humans and half breeds rebel, the wolf plague spreads mysteriously across the land causing chaos to run rampant. Anula survives an attack on her city, but is captured. Her people are dead or enslaved and she must survive the horror and cruelty of her captors. As a dark stain on his royal blood for his primal, blood thirsty urges, Draxz is denied the minotaur throne in favor of his younger brother Rurak. Giving in to his anger, he continues down his path of bloodshed. Aύok’s land is a wasteland, his ancient people starved of food and culture. As king of the druid elves, Aύok decides its long past time that his people claim back their land. If he fails, he and his people will perish. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I try to update at least one chapter a week.
