Chapter 125
We’ve been teaching Demon Lord Prim all about our world, and she’s teaching us about hers.
The demon world strikes me as a very Lawful Evil sort of place. They’re truly brutal with criminals, but what constitutes a crime can be questionable. Especially for other Demon Species.
It’s in the agreement that they will abide Dragon Law if they leave their territory, but it’s good that is a Succubus Lord ruling what is now dubbed Fallen City. She wants to make her own Las Vegas, but hasn’t worked out all the details yet. Like how to safely get tourists in and out with all the monsters.
The Succubi are planning on building a huge hotel in the trading post they will staff in the meantime, and we’ve agreed to turn a blind eye to the goings on as long as nobody gets forced or hurt. One feeding a month is survival level for a Succubus, so at least they can rotate staff.
"What’s next? Full time staff have taken over the mission, and it just might go on forever, so we’ve got two acolytes with free time and nothing urgent to do." I ask Karl.
"First up, I’m almost at a breakthrough to Condensation Realm. A day or two hunting should do it."
I am close to another breakthrough too. I’ll show Karl how to compound his breakthrough ’images of the experiment at the hotel flash through my mind’ well, maybe not that kind of compounded breakthrough, but Karl does have a certain appeal with his gruff looks and all.
No, keep on track. Kill monsters, break through. Talking with the Succubus so long must be messing with my mind.
"There’s a nice spawn area with bugbears. Perfect for working out pent up frustrations" Karl suggests.
He’s right this area is perfect. There’s almost fifty of them spread out over the ruins of what looks like a small town, giving lots of places to hide and attack from.
I see purple explosions a block over, so Karl is still nearby. I’m Shadow Melded, sneaking through a house to get to the shaman on the top floor. He’ll never know what hit him.
