2024-10-29 19:42:56After they walked a decent distance away, Tracy said, "Spill."
"What?" Luke asked.
"I mean it. What's the deal with you two?" she asked.
"I don't know what you mean. We're both heroes, if that's what you're asking," he said.
"That's not what I'm talking about," Tracy said as she stopped in front of him, making him also stop in his tracks. "There seemed to be something between you two. Were the two of you perhaps lovers?"
Luke stared blankly at her. What was going on in her mind for her to draw that conclusion? Nothing in their conversation indicated that they had that kind of relationship. All they did was greet each other briefly, share what amounted to be small talk, and then say their goodbyes. She was grasping at straws to jump to the conclusion that they used to date.

Fortunately, everything afterwards was easy to deal with. With the big components of the invasion dead, the duo didn't have much to do and watched the demons rampage a bit. That wasn't to say that there weren't other intelligent demons involved in the attack, but Luke was certain that they wouldn't be picking a fight with them anytime soon. Also, they weren't going to completely abandon the people.Despite what Luke had told the demons, his goal wasn't to wipe out the whole town. One reason would be that it would draw too much unwanted attention to them if everyone died. The angels would wonder why they didn't try harder to save people, especially Luke and Tracy, who were in the town when it was happening. They would suspect that the duo couldn't be trusted and watch them relentlessly.Another reason was the special quest about sowing discord in a town to the point where the people would turn against each other. While he had already earned points for accomplishing this task, he didn't
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 256: Guilt Tripping the Natives
Luke felt like someone was talking bad about him behind his back, but he ignored it. They could talk bad about him as much as they wanted as long as they didn't actively get in his way. Returning to what he was doing, he studied the demon corpses in front of him. He really wanted to redeem them for points, but there was one thing stopping him. Technically, it was two, but they were both connected.He sighed as he vaguely listened to the people showering him with thanks for saving them. It was natural that they would throw themselves at him after he saved them from being killed by the demons, but it was annoying to deal with. As long as they stood in his way, he couldn't collect the corpses. Even though it wasn't unusual for the demons' corpses to be taken and used, it would undoubtedly shock them to see the corpses disappear into thin air.They might get silly thoughts into their heads, like he was pretending to kill the demons and was actually saving them. It was a big jump, but he w
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 257: Collecting the Elixir
The party had decent stats, so there wasn't any real need to collect the elixir for them to drink, but there was one important reason to not leave it behind. Someone else might stumble upon it and try to use it for themselves. While the natives couldn't see their own stats, they could still get stronger by drinking it. Luke would rather not have to deal with a stronger enemy.Of course, there was another reason. Even if his party didn't need it, it was still a valuable item. He could use it as a bargaining chip for something just as valuable or strengthen one of his people who weren't in the party, like Tracy. Even though he didn't know what her stats were, he could guess that she wasn't on the same level as him and the others.[Can you tell me more about how you got your hands on the elixir?]Luke didn't see a problem with that and recalled the event t
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 258: Last Sight Luke Wanted to See
Now that he had collected the elixir, he was pretty much done with the town. He still needed to find a cart for them to use, but he was certain he would be able to get one as he left the town. All he needed to do was wait for Tracy to show up with what she found in the mayor's house. She should have had plenty of time to get the valuables. The only place she needed to look was the basement.As soon as he thought that, he realized he hadn't told her to only look in the basement. He had only told her where the mayor's house was. To be fair, she had run off as soon as she could, so it wasn't completely his fault he wasn't able to tell her. Unfortunately, that meant he didn't know how long it would take her to finish searching.[What will you do now?]"I'll make my way out. There's no point in sitting around and waiting for her to finish. She knows where to meet after our business is finished," he said.That was something they had discussed in case they couldn't find each other in the tow
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 259: Meeting Back With the Party
Tracy grumbled as she struggled with her loot. Unlike Luke, she didn't have an easy way to transport the large items in her possession, so she was stuck dragging them with her. The worst offender was the sword she had found. Why would the mayor keep a claymore in his basement? It was frankly ridiculous, and she had been panting up the steps trying to get it to the ground floor.The gold was also quite heavy. She wasn't certain what happened to the mayor, but she guessed he had been killed before he could make it back to his house. It didn't make sense for him to leave so much behind, or maybe he actually valued his life more than his greed. Well, it was his loss and her gain. The claymore was worthless to her, and she would gladly hand it over to Luke.However, the gold was definitely going to be hers. It was the least he owed her for going through the trouble of searching the place all on her own. As for the other items, she would have to see them. Some of them looked useful, but oth
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 260: Catching Up on What Happened After Party Separated
Luke sighed as Grace asked, "Is something wrong?""No, it's nothing," he said as he smiled at her. "Just as long as a certain someone doesn't run off on her own without any protection."Grace flinched at his words and avoided looking at him directly. It seemed that his words had a strong effect on her, which was good. Then he turned his attention to the rest of the party, who were waiting for them to reach them. He also noticed a certain weapon in Theodore's position. Luke felt his eyebrow twitching at the sight of the claymore at Theodore's waist.That was the weapon he had used last time in his previous life before he got a better one. It seemed that Tracy was able to find it like he had hoped, but Theodore had taken it from her. He would have to have a talk with the man so he could reclaim the sword. There was no reason for Theodore to use it when he
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 261: Integrating Violet into the Party
"That's if that's what the rest of the party wants," Luke said, making it clear they didn't have to agree to let her stay.Unfortunately, no one else seemed to mind her presence, not even Theodore, as Bobby shrugged his shoulders and said, "Sure. Why not? I don't see a problem with her sticking around."Chris nodded his head. "It'll be great to have another hero in our group, just as long as she doesn't cause trouble.""I won't do anything to disrupt the party's harmony," Violet promised.Bobby narrowed his eyes and leaned his head forward as he asked, "Actually, what is your class?""I'm an assassin," she said.This caused everyone who didn't know her class to perk up, and Bobby said, "That's great. We don't have an assassin in our party. It'll be nice not to have to play that role."Chris also looked relieved to have an assassin join them, which surprised Luke. In the previous life, they never had an assassin in their party, and the duo never complained about that fact. They had tak
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 262: Rebuild the Town or Take the Survivors
"So how are we going to do this? Are we going to help them rebuild or bring them to the next town?" Chris asked.Luke wasn't sure what he had been expecting, but it certainly wasn't this. It seemed like they had forgotten all about asking where Violet had come from. Well, that was for the best. It would bring up too many awkward questions that couldn't be answered. However, he knew it would eventually be brought up later, so he needed to prepare for that."Wouldn't it be better to help them rebuild?" asked Grace.Theodore scoffed. "You expect us to do manual labor after the stunt they pulled."Grace looked hurt by his words, but she didn't dare speak out. After all, he had been the one most affected by what happened, even though the party had received the same treatment. It made sense that he was unwilling to help them out after what happened. The only reason he was helping was because of the quest. Otherwise, Luke was certain he would walk away."I agree. Trying to rebuild the town i

Author's Note
Hello everyone. I just want to thank all my readers who have been following along so long. Luke's story has ended unless readers are interested in a sequel. Also, there are several things that I want to let you know. I have some news for all of you. In case some of you didn't know, I hd started a new book titled Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race which can be found here: https://www.meganovel.com/story/Rise-of-the-Demon-King-Caleb-Gonzales-s-Rat-Race_31000555550. It's set in the same world as my current book. It's kind of a prequel to Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge, but you can read it as a parallel or alternate universe if you like. As such, you might see some of the same characters who act differently from what you remember so I hope there's no confusion. For those interested to know more about the new book, here's the synopsis: When Caleb Gonzales woke up in the video game he last played, he expected things to go down like they did in those web

Chapter 389: The End
"The clean up is doing well," 'Kayla' said as she stood before Luke, who was sitting on the throne.Instead of responding to her, he gave a nod before looking to the next person. The corners of his mouth twitched as he wanted to frown. The previous demon king's women were staring at him, waiting patiently for him to finish his work. He didn't know what Mildred said to them, but they were all now convinced that they should try to seduce him.[They are strong women, so you shouldn't have any complaints about adding them to your harem.]Luke was unamused by the demon king's words. He knew very well that Luke hadn't been interested in building a harem. It was really bad enough that he had four women to contend with. Speaking of them, the quartet came walking into the throne room, with Grace taking the lead. She was looking well despite having only recovered yesterday."Luke, are you still in your meeting?" she asked as Tracy, Violet, and Ruth kept to her sides.Standing up, Luke said, "It'

Everyone stared in disbelief. How were they supposed to react to this sudden reveal? They had expected it to be a big deal because of the system's threat, but this was way behind anything they could have imagined. Luke distracted himself from the implications to assess everyone's reactions. Chris's mouth had dropped open while Bobby looked ill.Violet, on the other hand, was doing a good job keeping herself together, though it was just barely. Her fists were clenched, with her nails digging into her palm. Theodore was the only odd one out. He was quickly shocked by the information, but he appeared to be the calmest of the bunch. Luke couldn't decide if that was a good or bad thing as he returned his attention back to the system.Chris ended up being the first to break the silence. "You can't be serious."[The system assures the user that it is quite serious.][The users should confirm their desire as soon as possible. There are only five open spaces.]The party had barely recovered fr

Chapter 387: To Go Home or To Stay (1)
Luke couldn't believe it. The creator had actually been telling the truth when they said they could go home if they did enough to entertain them. He should be happy, but he was strangely numb about the reward. Perhaps it was because he had become used to the idea that he would never see his family again. That was why hearing the contrary left him with conflicted feelings."We can go home," Chris said in awe.A quick look at his party members was enough to tell Luke how overjoyed they were at the idea. After Luke had told them it was impossible, they had been resigned to never return back to their family and friends. It was why they had so willingly joined his side and turned their backs on the angels. However, a part of them had hoped that Luke was wrong."I wonder how everyone's been doing," Bobby said.Chris wrapped his arms around him and said, "I can't wait to see everyone."Violet had a soft smile, while Theodore only grunted. It should be a happy moment, but Luke was too used to

Chapter 386: The End of the Creator (3)
It couldn't understand what was happening. The creator could feel itself being torn away from its vessel against its will. This couldn't be happening. It was the creator. Everything went exactly as it wanted. There was no way it could lose to a human that had been originally brought into this world as nothing more than a tool. However, despite its efforts, it was being forced out by the sword in its chest.What was it? It couldn't be an ordinary weapon. Even when it was being injured, it had only been because the creator allowed it. Otherwise, the people wouldn't be able to actually harm it. Reaching out towards Luke and the sword again, it felt the sword pulse. Suddenly, the creator found its unable to move. An invisible force was keeping it from moving.The creator couldn't believe it. Such a thing had never happened before. The only possible reason that the creator could think of was that the sword contained a fragment of its power. However, that couldn't be it.

Chapter 385: The End of the Creator (2)
The creator's eyes rolled upward, and he spotted Takisha standing on its neck. Takisha didn't waste a second to bite her teeth in the creator's throat. She grimaced at the vile taste filling her mouth. Considering this was supposed to be the creator possessing a human, she would have thought the blood would taste delicious. Instead, it was probably the most disgusting blood she had ever tasted.Takisha wasn't even sure it was blood. Dirt tasted better than this. However, she focused on injecting her venom into the creator. A shadow loomed over her as the creator raised a hand to rush her. She didn't immediately run, and her faith was rewarded when vines and thorns wrapped around the creator's hand. Blood spilled from where the thorns pierced its skin.Of course, this wasn't enough to stop it for long. The creator ripped free, but its attention had been successfully redirected to Mildred, who unleased several arrows in its direction before running. It deflected them and rushed to crush

Chris demanded as he covered his face with a hand."That's for acting like an idiot," she snapped.Luke, Mildred, and Bobby stared at the bickering duo before Mildred turned to Luke and asked, "Are they...""No," Luke and Bobby immediately said.She glanced back at the duo and said, "Really?""They might act this way, but I assure you that Chris isn't her type," Bobby said as he waved a hand in front of himself. "She's already in a relationship with Luke.""I see," Mildred said. "It seems like I have competition."Bobby choked and Luke froze up as the duo finally stopped fighting and Tracy asked, "Wh

The creator was beginning to grow bored. Luke had disappeared off to who knew where, leaving them to deal with the rabble. None of them stood a chance against them. Of course, Luke being there wouldn't have changed much either, but this was supposed to be a game between them. If he wasn't there, then what was the point?They were debating whether they should cut the game short and simply end things when they heard a familiar voice shout, "Move!"Instantly, the creator raised a clawed hand to catch the arrow that had been shot in their direction. Their eyes spotted a familiar dark elf notching another arrow into her bow. So it looked like Luke had rescued the women that they had knocked out. They could have simply killed them and been done with it, but the creator had ultimately decided not to bother.Who would have expected that Luke would go rescue the

"What's this?" Luke muttered as he stared at the emergency quest.Luke never expected the system itself to give out a quest to defeat the creator. He would have thought it would be on their side since it was created by the system. Perhaps it saw the creator as a threat and wanted them to be dealt with. It sent shivers down his spine to see the quest, and he looked up to see that the others in the room were also reading a message from the system."Did you also receive the same quest as me?" he asked, though he already knew the answer."What's this nonsense?" demanded the succubus. "Defeat the creator? I've never heard such a thing.""There has to be a mistake," the dark elf said as she crossed her arms. "Why would we fight against our creator?"Laurel looked towards Luke and demanded,
