Is it so friendly?
I wonder, seeing the hands waving in the distance.
I guess in any case, I have no choice but to go.
I take my attaché's hand, and get ready to teleport there.
I am here.
It is nothing usual.
I didn't have the time to teleport, but I am here.
There is something highly wrong about this.
I did not feel any change in space, nor did I feel any sign of what happened.
Yet the air around me has suddenly changed, and the place where we stand is different.

It's taking such a good direction I could almost make it into a separate novel. I really enjoy writing this. Proof be the time I spent writing 4 chapters straight. A bit sad this one is slightly shorter than 1k words. Join the discord! discord.gg/nave7mrkqd
This is a double chapter. You can consider it a celebration for chapter 75, or just as a bonus.Part 1: Time FliesAfter I gave their message to their god, the Church never contacted me again, and I didn't try to either.I focused on getting merit and increasing my rank.In that endeavor, the time I spent previously researching the content of my proposal was well worth it. I probably wouldn't have been able to get to where I am in such a short time otherwise.Eventually, humanity became too developed to keep her ashes safe.They were likely to discover there were ashes inside the pot at some point, and use part of them to date the pot.
This chapter is over twice as long as a regular chapter, but it isn't a double chapter. Just a really long one. What is success? More specifically, what is being successful? Some would reduce the measure of success to the measure of its consequences. While it is true that consequences make for an easy metric to measure success, it is but the smoke of the fire. There is no smoke without fire, but there is fire without smoke. It is also to note that the particular smoke that is the consequence of success tends to often be unnoticeable, and rarely traces back to its origin. So, can one use the consequences of success as a measure of success? No. Unless,
Everything went well lately. While I was celebrating my victory, I also had an uneasy feeling. Nothing ever goes as you wish, so if everything goes well, it means you didn't notice what's wrong. At this point, I just wish I had a problem so I could be done with that. And as expected, something was indeed wrong. I received an unusual summon: I was summoned by name. There is a law that forbids Devils from spreading their names. I know this law well, for I studied it intensely when preparing my proposal. The law forbids any type of publicity for
A/N: Double length! Wrote it in one piece, so consider it a bonus for the finale! I am finally on the doorstep of success. As much as I won long ago, its results are today. You could say it is the last, decisive battle. In the time it took me to free her, I saw humanity rise and face various crises. Humanity had the time to change entirely as a civilization. Compared to its evolution, the Devil society might seem to stagnate. But it was not entirely true. Because every single change I pushed forward, little by little, over the y
Daniel was studious. He was studious enough that when he summoned a Devil, he managed to obtain riches from it with the insurance of not losing his soul early. He was so studious that he took care of his money, and did not squander it away. Of course, that did not mean he did not use it. He was studious enough to understand that many died without using their fortune because of their fear of losing it. So he simply calculated. Instead of growing his wealth with investments, he used part of the returns of these investments in his daily life. One shouldn't underestimate these returns, for they are plentiful.
Life was a cycle, and eventually came a time at which humanity fell.It went from a technology abundant civilization to a more rural humanity, the old way.After a while recovering, it started rising again, and the business of Devils as well.At some point in the process, Tanya stopped using her power.She wanted a change of pace. While she did use it to keep her age the same, she avoided using it every day.She did have to force her way through to get a place to live, but after that, she did not.The first few generations ostracized her, which was fine with her, for they were scared. They would not approach her and to her, it was as peaceful as it could get.

-Come on! -Ugh! It was the last stretch, the last push. After it, came cries. And with the cries, came the conclusion: -It's a boy. It was their first baby. As worried as Dranel was, she insisted on delivering the natural way. Their child was a half-devil. As such, he took partly from devils. As small and dull as newborn devils' horns were, they were still hard protrusions that could potentially endanger the mother's life. Latest Chapter
