The princess calmly stared at Luke over the rim of her teacup. She had wanted to speak with him earlier, but there had been many other things she needed to deal with, and their talk wasn't essential. However, even though this talk wasn't as important as the other matters she was dealing with, she had wanted to demand answers from him right away about certain matters, like how he failed to get into the top five. She had been ready to praise him and make a show of how she was supporting him in front of the masses.
Those plans were ruined when she couldn't find his name in the top five. What was worse was that the man who had undermined her authority before had managed to get a tie for first place. She had never been so insulted before. If she didn't have an image to maintain, she would have thrown a fit and ordered something to be done about the results. Unfortunately, it was already too late since everyone had seen it.
Keeping her mask on, she chose to redirect her focu

"Hey," someone shouted across the room.Luke stopped in the middle of his conversation with 'Kayla' to see who was calling for him even though he already had a decent idea of who it was. Theodore was making his way towards them with obvious intent in every step he took. He probably intended to finish their conversation from earlier. However, the dark expression on his face indicated that he was not in the mood to deal with Luke.Whatever went down between Theodore and the princess had soured his mood. Well, it wouldn't be that hard. The two of them despised each other, and the only reason they were meeting at all was because the princess had to keep her image. It would be bad if she refused to meet the first place winner but met someone who wasn't in the top five. That was fine with him. Maybe he could discover what they have been talking about and see if he could use that information fo
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 105: Obtaining a "New" Item
As Luke had predicted, the giant goblin's corpse was presented to them not long after his discussion with Theodore. Theodore wasn't there himself, as he had left the transportation to the natives to handle and wasn't interested in seeing them again or, more specifically, Luke. The said natives were eyeing them strangely, probably wondering why they needed to transport the corpse to them instead of processing it right away.He ignored them in favor of inspecting the corpse. It was pretty damaged from the fight, but that wasn't his concern. Instead, his eyes were studying the giant goblin's intact stomach. Whisphersong should be inside the stomach unless the item had merged into a different spot, which he doubted heavily."Can you cut right here?" he asked the natives as he pointed to the stomach.There was no point in doing it himself if he could ask the
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 106: Forming the Parties (1)
Studying the group before him, Sir Gilbert was impressed with how far they had gotten. In the beginning, he thought that they would never be able to reach the necessary level needed to start hunting down demons before a year had passed. Of course, it was a bit disappointing that it took a couple months to get to this point, but it was far better than his projected predictions."You have done well these past few months," he declared. "Now, I think it's time for you to officially create your own parties."At his declaration, many were excited and fearful to hear this. He had mentioned before that they would need to form parties before they set off to fight demons. It was a relief for many that they wouldn't have to set it out alone. However, the fact that he was bringing it up now meant they were going to be sent to the front lines soon. The majority of them didn't feel ready for this desp
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 107: Forming the Parties (2)
Luke failed. He wasn't sure how she did it, but she managed to include Theodore in their party. Everyone else had formed their own parties, so he couldn't just foster him out to another. Bobby and Chris looked just as confused as if they weren't sure what just happened. Actually, Theodore also looked just as befuddled. The only one seemingly okay with the situation was Grace, who looked like a cat that caught the canary.Even 'Kayla' was giving them a strange look from where she was. If it were any other time, she would have come over already to see what was going on. Well, whatever. He wasn't sure how, but he would somehow find a way to make use of this. He would do it. For now, he was going to wait and hear what Sir Gilbert had to say about the newly formed parties.Sir Gilbert studied the six newly formed parties. Two of them had six members, but he let it slide. He did say that the p
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 108: The Party’s First Quest
[Quest][Patrol the Kingdom's Capital][To keep the kingdom safe, a patrol must be sent out to investigate all the corners of the kingdom and slay any demon that they might encounter.][Patrol the farmland located in the south of the kingdom's capital for the entire day and ensure the food supply is not damaged. Kill any demons that you might find.][You will be rewarded based on your performance.]Looking at the quest description, it was just as he thought. It was a simple patrolling quest, though not in the same place as his previous life. That was reasonable. He couldn't expect everything to be exactly the same. However, this meant that they would need to find a map or get some direc
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 109: Patrolling the Farmland
Luke and Theodore walked silently through the farmland, passing by the natives, who ignored their presence outside of an occasional glance. If things kept going this way, the quest would end uneventfully, which would be a good thing, but Luke hadn't gone this far without being cautious. He would rather avoid a repeat of what happened during the tournament.Speaking of the tournament, there hadn't been any sabotage like he had been worried about. That either meant Laurel was successful in her attempts to persuade the demons not to attempt anything or there were other factors at play. He would need to investigate, which was currently difficult for him at this time. Later, when he had more freedom, he could go through with his investigation.However, by then, things could have changed drastically. He couldn't do anything about it unless they miraculously received a quest that would allow th
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 110: A Familiar Face
Luke soon found Theodore facing off against something or rather, someone. Caught off guard, he watched as Theodore and Laurel faced off against each other. Well, at least he could say that this solved one of his issues. However, it brought its own set of problems. One of them being that this wasn't a good time for her to be showing up. The angels would undoubtedly know she was on the demon's side unless the Demon King had done a good job of hiding her identity.[Don't worry. The angels don't know she was one of my lovers.]While that was good news, it didn't change the important fact that she and Theodore were fighting each other. There was no good reason for a native to fight a hero unless they were up to no good or they didn't realize that the person they were fighting was a hero. The angels wouldn't allow him to let her go that easily without a very good reason, and even then, they wo
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 111: Regrouping With the Rest of the Party
"Do you think they're okay?" Grace asked as she looked in the direction that Luke and Theodore had gone in for like the hundredth time.Bobby waved her concern off. "You have nothing to worry about. They'll be fine."His words weren't enough to dissuade her. She felt a bit guilty for pushing Luke to accept Theodore into the party, but Theodore did give them the giant goblin's corpse and inadvertently gave her back the item Luke had gotten for her. Even though Luke insisted it wasn't her fault, she couldn't stop thinking about how she had messed up his plan. It was only through sheer luck that nothing went wrong.She would have to admit that Theodore had made her nervous ever since their first encounter, but the more she got to know him, the more it eased up. Obviously, her apprehension around him had not subsided, but he clearly cared and offered them a
