Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 85: After Dealing with the Nosey Humans
Caleb stared blankly at the corpse that was being munched on by Helen. After hearing about the humans, he had decided to investigate himself. Of course, he should have known things wouldn't go as planned. His intention had been only to observe them further and perhaps send one of his followers to trail after them. Unfortunately, it seemed that a certain someone couldn't help themselves.Helen stopped chewing as she felt a gaze on her. She glanced at her surroundings, but she couldn't see anyone nearby. However, the gaze didn't appear threatening, so she went back to eating in peace. The human tasted quite good. It couldn't compare to all the other things she'd eaten. She hoped that her king would allow her the opportunity to hunt other humans for food.He shuddered, feeling as if he was going to deal with some troubling things in the future. Shaking his head, he chose not to think about it and instead to focus on the present. Undeniably, the humans would take this as a sign to send he
Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 86: Preparing for the Humans
Caleb sighed as they finally returned back to the base. It was good to be back. However, he couldn't relax just yet. He had to get to work preparing for the humans that would undoubtedly show up to investigate why the first two they sent hadn't returned. Even though he really hoped that the heroes wouldn't be sent, he needed to prepare for the worst case scenario.Jumping off of Helen, he shooed the demon rats away to go help around the base so that he could have time to himself to plan. He didn't want another repeat of what happened to his previous lair and army. Retreating into the cave, he took a moment to study the skills he had. Caleb frowned at the sight of his skills being unable to surpass level three.Despite his efforts, the skills he had the longest had refused to budge and level up. Of course, it was possible that level three was the limit, but he didn't think that was the case. After all, the system had said that he needed to use them more when he had asked about it a whi
Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 87: Arrival of More Humans
"This place gives me the creeps. Are you sure it's safe?" one man asked as he shuddered."Why do you think we're going in such a large group?" the leader asked dryly.The group muttered to themselves. He had a point. Last time, two people had been sent to investigate, but they never returned. They had been last seen over a week ago. It shouldn't have taken more than a day to reach the place and return back. The place wasn't that far from the road or the two places. However, it didn't change the fact that they were missing.Eventually, the people got fed up and got together to discuss their next move. The heroes were still busy elsewhere, and the two missing people just made the people more anxious. If they couldn't rely on the heroes, they would have to handle it themselves. However, that was easier said than done. No one wanted to go considering they lost two people.To remedy the issue, it was decided that a large group would go. Even if it meant they were slowed down, they would st
Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 88: Playing With the Humans
Helen grinned when she sensed the humans moving in her direction. If they were so eager to be eaten, she would gladly devour them. Drool dripped down her mouth at the thought. After eating the human from last time, she was hungry for more human flesh. She hadn't had something so tasty before. However, her happy mood was spoiled by Matthew."Do not think about it. Have you forgotten what our king said?" Matthew said as he nudged.She grumbled. "I didn't forget. I don't understand why the king said to let them be for now. Why can't we just eat them?"Matthew narrowed his eyes. "You dare question our king.""Of course not," she snapped. "I would never, but I don't see what's the point of letting the humans live."He huffed. "That's because your head is full of food."Their conversation was interrupted as they heard the humans shouting about something. The humans were still a good distance away, but they would certainly feel the duo if they moved. Either the humans would change directions
Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 89: Capable of Being a Leader (?)
"I'm really not cut out to be the leader," Caleb muttered to himself.Caleb thought that his experience playing video games and his time leading the previous group meant he was a capable leader. Granted, none of the games required him to lead an army or were about army building, but he thought for sure he wouldn't have any issues. However, the evidence in front of him proved otherwise.Somehow his orders for the demon rats currently monitoring the humans to report back had changed into them playing with the humans. The worst part was that he only figured it out after a lot of staring at the map and sending out demon rats to get the whole picture. Why was it so hard to lead an army? The game made it seem so easy for the demon king to control all the demons.[The user shouldn't fret, as everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses.]It was strange to see the system trying to comfort him. On one hand, it was nice to have support. On the other hand, Caleb had to remind it that he liter
Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 90: Utter Chaos
"Run!" a man screamed as the trio of goblins chased after them.A few of them looked back to see the bloodthirsty demons chasing after them. The goblins were clearly eager to get their hands on some human meat. None of them were equipped to actually fight demons. The group had assumed that they would just investigate and escape before they were spotted by the demons. They never expected to run into some goblins."Where's the exit?" someone cried as they protected their face from the leaves falling on them.Unfortunately, no one had an answer. They had completely lost their way after traversing the forest for so long. None of them knew whether the way out was left, right, or straight. Even if they did know, they were unable to think straight from sheer terror at the sight of the demons. This was the first time they had seen demons, and they were truly as terrifying as they had heard.Suddenly, someone tripped. Some stopped to look back and help, while others just kept running without l
Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 91: Brainwashing 2.0
Caleb sighed. He supposed he should count his blessings that things didn't turn out worse, though he wasn't sure how it could have been worse. Realizing where his thoughts were heading, he immediately shook his head, much to the confusion of everyone else. This wasn't the time to be thinking about the worst that could happen. It had already passed, and he should focus on the present.Scanning the humans again, he grimaced, as a few of them would probably not survive if they were still alive. It was unfortunate, as he had intended to use his [Brainwashing] skill on them. The idea had suddenly come to him earlier, and he wanted to try and see if it would work. He had yet to use the skill on anything else besides demon rats. The skill had leveled up quite a bit, so it should be possible."Bring the humans closer," Caleb ordered.His followers didn't hesitate to drag them toward him. The ones still conscious and completely aware of what was going on screamed as they struggled to get away.
Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race Chapter 92: Poison Time
What Caleb meant by dealing with the rest was determining if it was worth letting them live a little while longer or being eaten by his followers. It was a bit concerning how many of them have started craving human meat. He had already known about their human eating habits, but it didn't make it any less disturbing to see how excited they were at the prospect of eating a human.Obviously, there was no point in prolonging the suffering of those with fatal injuries. It was unrealistic to expect them to return back alive to get their injuries treated. Even with magic, there were some things that couldn't be healed. It would be a mercy to let them be killed right now, though being eaten alive couldn't be called a mercy. Maybe he should kill them first before letting his followers devour them.Since the ones left were in no condition to pay attention to their surroundings, none of them were aware of the danger they were in. If they had, they would undoubtedly be begging for their lives or
