Chapter 47: vs. Demon King Gorgon
Ragnar Vhagar, Demon King and newly minted war-profiteer, watched the live feed on his phone like a day trader staring at a stock market crash.
His entire net worth, represented by a bizarre team of monsters and a former hero, had just walked into a rival’s territory.
The "Wrecking Crew," as he’d started calling them in his head, was on the clock.
Their target is a Demon King known as Gorgon the Tyrant, whose domain was a gaudy, multi-level shopping mall.
"So far, so good," Ragnar muttered to the empty Throne Room.
Pixia was tucked safely away in her new house, monitoring the team’s vital signs remotely.
On the screen, Isabelle’s team moved with brutal efficiency.
The first floor of the mall was a huge, brightly lit food court filled with hundreds of skinny goblins.
They were waving around plastic food trays and broken mop sticks like weapons.
It looked completely ridiculous.
"Engage," Isabelle’s voice commanded, cool and flat through the phone’s speaker.
