It was goblins. Of course it was goblins. Luke wasn't sure what he was expecting when he heard the footsteps approaching them. There weren't many options for who it could be. He had momentarily considered whether it was the citizens or the prophets, but he discarded them after thinking about it. If there hadn't been a layer of dust coating the furniture, then he would have really considered them as a possibility.
He discarded the possibility that it was the prophets, as they had shown no signs of confronting them face to face. It simply wasn't their style based on everything Luke had seen so far. They had only used magic to capture them in an illusion and allowed the goblins to do the fighting. There was also another reason for it, but he wasn't going to bring it up just yet.
Their group was able to easily defeat the small group of five goblins without any difficulty. IT would have been

Everyone instantly rushed over to see what she was looking at. It looked like an inn, which Luke had to admit was the first thing they should have looked for in this town instead of blindly looking through the houses for a place to stay. However, had they passed by the inn? He couldn't remember seeing the place as they walked through the town, but it was possible they hadn't gone down this path earlier.The town's layout wasn't something he was familiar with, as he had only visited the town a few times in the past. Without letting their guard down, they entered one by one as they checked for any signs of demons or anything that might be a threat to them. There didn't seem to be any signs of anything living there, just like all the other houses.Once they were all inside, Cedric declared, "We should split up. Some of us will stay on the bottom floor while the rest inspect the top floor."<

Luke struck as soon as everyone fell asleep. After discussing what they should do, everyone had finally decided to retire for the night. He had been the one designated to take the first shift. Once he was certain that no one would interrupt what he was about to do, he entered 'Grace's' room. The women reacted immediately to his presence and tried to attack him.He easily overpowered her and kept her mouth covered to keep her from waking up the others. It would be bad if anyone else came in and saw what they were doing. They would misunderstand his intentions and think he was trying to take advantage of her, despite how long they had been together. He was going to wait a little bit longer to see what 'Grace' was going to do, but circumstances changed."I think it's about time you stop pretending," Luke said as he kept the woman wearing Grace's face pinned to the floor.

[Quest][Confront the Imposter][You have deduced that your party member 'Grace Hill' has been replaced by an imposter.][Determine their real identity and confront them.][You will be rewarded based on how quickly you can determine their identity and how you confront them.]The quest had appeared as soon as he had determined that the 'Grace' he had been talking to wasn't the real one. It had been a while since the demon's system had given him a quest. He had been planning to complain to the demon king if this had kept up, because then he would have no way to access the other features in the system.Staring at the quest description, he waited to see if

She looked absolutely furious that she admitted this, and he found himself quite interested in this information. It was a pity that the system informed him that she was no longer under his power. Fortunately, it wasn't too hard to deduce the reason why they needed a Healer. They obviously bit off more than they could chew when facing the previous group.Their use of illusions wasn't just because they wanted to make their group take themselves out with as little effort on their part as possible. It was a necessity born from their inability to send anyone out to fight. That was probably why they sent this woman instead of someone older or more experienced. For a dangerous mission like this one, it would be foolish to have someone this young try to fool them.Of course, she had barely fooled the others, but that was only because they didn't have all the information. If they knew about the p
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 163: Splitting into Two Groups (1)
The duo ended up coming to an agreement before the next shift. They were going to continue with the former, as Tracy argued that she would be targeted if she revealed the truth at that moment. He could see what she was worried about and didn't protest. After all, he had been the one to offer both options to her. If he had wanted her to reveal her identity right away, he would have just given her one option.By the time Boyd took over his shift, he was none the wiser as to what had transpired. When morning came the next day, it was obvious that Tracy hadn't gotten any sleep, at least to him. She had probably been agonizing over what happened and perhaps regretful that she had agreed to his demands. Well, there was nothing she could do about it now.Apparently, he wasn't the only one to notice, as Bobby asked, "Doing okay there, Grace?"'Grace' flinched a
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 164: Splitting into Two Groups (2)
After some time had passed, the group was beginning to get anxious about why the others still hadn't returned. It shouldn't have taken the other group so long just to inspect nearby buildings. While it was true that searching for food didn't take as long as combing through buildings, the amount of time they were taking was getting ridiculous."Do you think we should go look for them?" Bobby asked as he scanned the other group members.It felt weird being apart from Chris. They were normally never far apart from each other, having lived in the same neighborhood and going to the same school. Of course, the two of them obviously had their own lives and couldn't spend every moment together, but being separated from him made him uneasy. He couldn't remember the last time they had been apart for this long.They spent every moment they could together and seemed to know what the other was thinking, to the point where people wondered if they were actually twins and could reach each other's min

As they were heading back the way they came, they were completely caught off guard when a giant fireball came raining down on them. Everyone managed to dodge the attack as it decimated the spot where they were previously standing. It was a smoldering hole in the ground. Bobby had notched an arrow while he scanned their surroundings to find a target to hit. Luke and Felipe had their swords drawn while 'Grace' stood in the middle.None of them could see who was responsible, but no one dared to let their guard down. Their attacker might still be around, waiting for another chance to catch them off guard. Luke quickly checked the condition of the group and saw no one was hurt before his eyes lingered on 'Grace'. Had she set them up to be attacked? He had been keeping an eye on her, but he hadn't watched her all the time.Last night, he had gone to sleep in his room, as it would be suspicious

'Grace' looked at him like she couldn't believe he would make such a suggestion, and he wasn't sure why she thought he wouldn't use her. They both already knew that she wasn't Grace, so he had no reason to worry about her safety. Of course he wasn't going to purposely hurt her, but if she was going to be pretending to be Grace, then she needed to take responsibility for her actions."Don't worry. We'll cover you," Luke said.She didn't appear to believe him, but it wasn't like she had any other choice. Even though Bobby and Felipe were uncertain about this plan, they didn't have any better ideas and were counting on her to do it. If she refused, then her cover might be blown. She didn't know enough about Grace to know what she would do, but she had a feeling she wasn't the type to refuse when she could help the group."Go," ordered Luke as they were bombarded again.As soon as it was safe enough for her to run, she bolted in the direction they had been heading in. She wasn't sure what
