Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 111: Handling a Corpse
In hindsight, Caleb should have known that things would inevitably get chaotic. It was literally inevitable. He had wanted to hide Grace's body from the others and had used his body to shield her from view since he had nothing else and was short on time. It wasn't the smartest, but he would like to see how someone else would react in his place.Of course, he had muttered apologies to her in his head. If she were alive, she would probably be disturbed to have someone suddenly get on top of her to hide her. He certainly would have. Death didn't change that either. No one deserved to have someone get all handsy with their corpse. When he brought her back to life, he really hoped she wouldn't know about this.It would certainly make this awkward. If she did, he would make sure to apologize for what happened and hope it didn't suddenly make them enemies. It would be pretty messed up if he res
Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 112: Legendary Items
After spending a long time inspecting the door, Caleb finally caved in and attempted to open the door. He honestly didn't expect it to work since his followers had said nothing they did work. Imagine his surprise when the door swung open, like it had been unlocked the entire time. The group stared at the dark interior before Caleb turned to look at Matthew.Understanding the question in Caleb's eyes, Matthew frantically said, "It really wouldn't open when we tried. It wouldn't budge."Caleb didn't think he was lying, but it was strange that the door would open so easily. The only difference he could think of was that Caleb was in his human form instead of his demon rat form. However, if that was the case, he couldn't figure out why that would be the case. It seemed like poor security to allow a humanoid figure to open the secret treasury so easily.Deciding it was best not to think about it, he ordered one of his followers to open the door. He made sure to send the weakest first. It w
Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 113: Securing the Castle
Caleb was glad that Grace's corpse was light. Having to carry it such a long distance would have been difficult otherwise, and dragging it across the floor was just disrespectful. Of course, he could have had Matthew carry her on his back. The demon rat had followed him back, even though Caleb told them to stay in the secret treasury until he returned.As he set her down on the floor, he asked, "System, what now?"Instead of an answer, he was shown the emergency quest details. The system hadn't done that before, and Caleb scanned the text. Out of the five requirements, two were complete. The second one was where she had to be in the demon king's castle, and the fifth one was about ten Legendary angelic items. Well, he hoped that last requirement was fulfilled.He wasn't going to check every single item in the room to make sure there were at least ten of them. The third requirement was something he could do right away, but the other two requirements worried him. The system still hadn't
Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 114: Collecting Demon Corpses
"That makes it number ten," Caleb said as he wiped the sweat off his forehead.Currently in his human form, he stared down at the demon corpse in front of him. This was the tenth one he had managed to bring back to the demon castle. It was such a huge hassle to kill the demons, or at least find the corpse of one and bring it back with him. Transporting them wasn't easy, and he needed to do it nine hundred more times.With a groan, he sat down on the ground as he observed his surroundings. None of his followers were with him as he told them to wait outside. Their presence wouldn't help him in his current situation, as they didn't have the hands to drag a corpse. His eyes eventually fell onto Grace's corpse, which had yet to decay despite how long it had been.After all this time, there should have at least been signs of her body breaking down. However, her body looked the same as when he had last seen her. It was strange, as he couldn't recall any skill that could keep a body from deco
Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 115: Lost and Absent System
Questions and worries plagued him following the revelation that the last hero was dead. It had certainly caused quite a stir among the remaining demons, who took this as a sign to rampage as much as they wanted. Without a hero, the humans were at the demons' mercy, even with the demon king dead. Of course, this didn't apply to Caleb, who made sure to keep to himself along with his army."System, what now?" Caleb finally asked.Back when he first found out, he had immediately asked his system for answers, but it couldn't give him any. It simply told him to focus on his quests and leveling up. That was easier said than done, but it did it anyway. There was no other option. However, he hadn't been making much progress on the emergency quest, and his level hadn't gone up.While this wouldn't normally bother him since this was normal, he was anxious because of the unrest going on. This was basically the end of the story. What was happening now is what he suspected would happen after the ga
Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 116: Facing Off Against the Demons
Caleb hated that he was right. He could tell even from a mile away that the demon in front of him was someone none of them stood a chance against. However, it was too late to run. Caleb had known the moment he sensed their presence. Maybe if he was lucky, they would be willing to back off after a brief discussion. It wasn't going to happen, but it didn't hurt to hope.The demon studied him as if questioning if he was really the leader. He supposed it was hard to take him seriously when he was in his demon rat form, which was smaller than most of his army. It was probably a comical sight. The demon came with her own army, expecting to encounter another demon of her level, only to see a tiny demon rat.Well, he assumed she came there because she thought he was a threat. He really didn't have any other ideas why she would be there. It wasn't like he knew her. The only thing he knew about her was that she was a succubus based on her appearance. What was a succubus doing all the way out he
Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 117: System Malfunction
[Error][System Error][Currently, searching for a solution.]As the messages continued to flash in front of Caleb, he was surprisingly calm about it. Well, he supposed it was because he had been seeing the messages for the past two weeks. When it first appeared after he agreed to follow the succubus Lisa, he freaked out. It was impossible not to when it suddenly shoved itself right into his face.His panic didn't go unnoticed by anyone, which was unfortunate but unavoidable. His followers immediately assumed that Lisa had done something and retaliated, while Lisa and her side assumed Caleb was up to something. The fight that broke out nearly killed him and his followers. He had gotten lucky that he was able to convince Lisa that he wasn't trying to betray her.After all, why would he go through the trouble of telling her that he would follow her and then try to kill her right after? If he really intended to stab her in the back, he would have waited for a better opportunity. Attacking
Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 118: Attack on the Capital
"Why are we attacking the capital?" Caleb finally asked as he watched the forces move in preparation for their invasion.Lisa gave him a strange look. "Isn't it obvious?"Caleb stared right back at her with the same look. If he knew, he wouldn't have asked, though he did have several ideas. It could be because of revenge. Even though they were demons, that was the typical response anyone would have if they were dealt a large blow. Losing the demon king was a huge loss on their side. Without him, they were lost.Well, the succubus did say she was the new demon king, but he honestly didn't know how the process worked. How was a demon king chosen? The game never brought it up, as it was never essential to the plot. Could any demon become the new demon king after the last one died? There had to be some order to the madness, which he was clueless about.Getting the hint that he didn't know, she huffed and puffed up her chest, which only served to emphasize her assets. As a succubus, her ou
