《Helluva Boss: Hellish Love (Loona X Original Character)》Chapter 30: The Harvest Moon Festival Part 3
Advertisement
This Striker guy stopped his fiery steed and said "Well howdy, oh looky here you must be the famous Mildred. Heard some good things about you from your folks little lady" I thought to myself "This guys voice reminds me of an actor...what was his name again? Oh! Norman Reedus" It was then I heard Loona giggling and I turned and faced her and said "And what are you giggling for?" Loona snorted and said "Millie's name is Mildred, I just find it funny since it's something an old person would be named but Millie isn't that old" I huff and then said to Loona "Oh yeah, that is kinda funny now that you mention it".
Millie then felt flustered at Strikers complement and he continued to say "What are y'all doing so far away from Imp City? Huh the free work finally slowing down?" Millie responded "Oh no freelance isn't free it's...Nevermind. We're just visiting for the festival. The Prince is our boss's boyyyfrienndd" both Loona and I laugh at Millie's comment before we stop to continue listening, Blitzo then says "Millie I am not above hitting a female in front of her daddy" Striker then approaches Blitzo and says to him "Boss huh, Oh! so you're the bold Imp to start his own killing biz?" Blitzo confidently replied "Yeah well when you're good at something you should probably capitalize" Striker replied saying "Not many Imps stat businesses on their own. That's pretty impressive sir" Blitzo was taken aback by strikers complement, I thought that maybe he had not had one before from anyone outside of work so Blitzo sounded happy when he said "Oh, yeah? It is-I-I guess, I guess it is isn't it". Striker continued by saying "So you even conned that ditzy blue blood into getting you to the surface?" Blitzo then said whilst sounding embarrassed but then confident with his answer "Well it's long and complicated but the short answer is yes. BUT HE'S NOT like you know? We're, we're not like, we're not doing a-we, what's between us is a transactional fucking you see".

Joe then speaks up from behind us all "You know you boys should enter the pain games" Blitzo excitedly runs up to Joe which made Loona and I snort and Blitzo says "GAMES! I heard games, what games?! I'm in!" Lynne stands next to Joe and adds "In every harvest festival there's a competition to be roughest, toughest bastard in Wrath!" Millie then said sounding jealous for some reason "Yeah! Wish I could play!" Lynn then said "Millie you know you get too carried away, the last competition ended in 15 separate funerals" My eyes widened at Lynn's comment but in my mind I thought "I shouldn't be surprised after when Millie and I first met at that beach and I helped save her husband from that monster fish".
Millie continued to say "I'm aware but I only caused 8 of them, how come Sally May still gets to compete?!" Lynn then said sternly "Your sister doesn't have a neighborhood head count" Millie then argued "She so does!" Next thing comes a female demon wearing high beige boots with back torn leggings, beige short shorts, a black crop trop and a red bandanna walks by carrying a sac walks by with a younger male demon dragging what I could hope to be a fake body says "It doesn't count if you don't find the bodddyyy" Lynne then argued back "Still you get to root for her and your brothers and now can cheer on your boss and possibly Carter if he wishes to take part?" Loona and I look at each other and I look back at Lynn and shrug my shoulders before saying "Yeah sure I might as well since I'm here, I'm down" Loona smiled and said "Ooh my strong man is going to prove himself to me?" In a country accent and I chuckled and kissed her head and said to her "Nah just want to see what I can do myself, since you know I'm a Hellhound now".

Moxxie then speaks up and says to Lynn "You know she can also cheer for me" Joe wheezes and says mockingly "HAHAHA...wait you?" Moxxie said defensively "Yeah! I could compete can't I?" Lynn elbows him a little too hard causing him to lose his breath and then Joe says "Sorry boy but I don't think sensitive thespian types would last very long in the games". Moxie replied "I was born here too, I have some fight in me" in a country accent, Striker place a hand on Moxxie's shoulder and said "Huh well then little fella, why don't you help me wrangle one of them hogs for dinner" Moxxie confidently replied "Simple, watch me" Strike retorted back with "Nah with these. Bullets can't pierce the shell, you got to get the knife underneath them, pry yourself an opening" Handing Moxxie some sort of dagger and some rope. Moxxie sounded nervous when he replied "Oh right, right, I knew that" Blitzo approached Moxxie placing both hands on his shoulders and said "Now just remember your rep with the in-laws in on the line here so no pressure at all, you totally will not make an ass of yourself in front of everyone important in your life, go get em tiger" I nearly about lost it at Moxxie's face which was a mix of distraught and fear but his face looked ugly when Blitzo told him all that and that's what made it funny, Loona even wheezed laughed.
Blitzo shoved Moxxie into Millie and she said "Moxxie you don't need to do this" Blitzo said "Oh he totally does, TAKE IT'S ASS MOXXIE YEAH!" I said to Loona this is not going to go well is it?" Loona pulled out her phone ready to record and said "No it's not but it's going to be funny as shit" Moxxie entered the pen and the rest of us watched from the fence. Moxxie approached the hog and leaped into the air with both the knife and rope in his hands "Oh boy" I said aloud, this is not going to end well is it?

Ars Magica
Our vision comes back into focus. Our eyes, while being able to perceive the immediate surroundings, still leave us with our minds uncomprehending towards what is actually occurring. Sure, there are definitive things that we can focus on, like the fact that we're either out upon the open sea or the open ocean, there not being much of a difference with no land in sight, as well as the fact that we appear to be upon a haphazardly constructed metal boat, whose seams are barely able to keep a hold of themselves in the crashing waves. However, that does not let us understand what exactly is causing the waves in the first place. If we were to rewind time, we'd find ourselves upon a calm sea under a peaceful sky with the only difference, being a small whirlpool that would be the precursor towards this uproar around the boat. Lightning flashes in the sky, with no clouds being near, and anyone actually manning the boat has either died towards the cause of the smashing tides in the first place, or are fighting amongst the flashes of lightning, all while trying not to become devoured, demolished, and utterly decimated by the beast roiling in the whirling waves. To better understand exactly what is happening here, there is one singular event that needs to be understood, that needs to be explained, and that is the arrival of a creature named Dave. Stepping back from current events and going towards this creature's first appearance in the world, we begin to hear the sound of water slowly dripping across rocky ground. The cavern is utterly silent except for this one constant, its cause feeding channels downwards, sloping towards cracks in the rubble along the floor from broken stalagmites and stalactites. And there, lying on top of something which had fallen over recently, judging from its cracks, is a person, the creature named Dave. His form is fast asleep, either from the impact or from an intoxication, judging from the smell upon its breath. A bright light suffuses into it for a second, giving life towards the pale skin, before it slowly dies down back to the comfortable black of the cave that it's within. Before this moment in time, Dave did not exist in the physical world. At least, not in the reality that he finds himself born into. We do not know whether or not his existence is simply a cosmic joke, or something that is being played out on purpose. All that we do know, is that one moment, the body was not in the cave, and simply formed in the next. The actual earliest time that we know Dave exists, is the interpolation of the memories of J-209, which we'll begin looking into shortly to gain context towards the coming narrative that is being written and hastily trying to keep itself written. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warning: This story has several things which might turn its readers away. The first is that this story has shifting points of perspective. Don't worry about that previous sentence too much though, as the main character will always have a first person perspective associated with them. However, any other character from which we're viewing the story from will either be in third-person, as we are not necessarily in their shoes at the moment, or in first person, given that the narrator is an actual physical presence within the story. For the most part, chapters will be self-contained with their perspectives, so there will not be an abundance of switching perspectives within the same chapter. The most that an average reader would have to worry about is the fact that perspectives can switch between chapters. The second thing is that the main character is a bit on the 'special' side of things. He's not exactly mentally there most of the time, so there will be some times that his personality or his thoughts do not actively align with his actions. The third, and final thing of importance, is the fact that past the first couple of chapters, nothing has been planned in advance. There are arcs and plots that I want to do, want to implement, or have already been set into motion from our main character's introduction to the world, but the method that I use for my story writing and generating leads towards a bit more random chance being enabled. Basically...there's a lot of dice rolling behind the scenes. To not complicate the story further than its regular LitRPG elements, the rolls will not be publicly available. However, there will be knowledge within the author's notes on whether or not there were positive or negative critical rolls that had occurred within the chapter. You have been warned. Updates: Mondays & Fridays (Schedule permitting) Typical Chapter Length: (2,000-3,000)
