That was right. They had two options for how to deal with the natives. After dealing with fights all morning, neither option was appealing to them. The idea of staying in the town to break up fights or traveling with them as they were insulted was something none of them wanted to experience. However, they had to choose one of them. The question was, which was the least bad option.
"I don't know. I can't see how either one would be better than the other," said Bobby.
"Say," Chris said.
"The better question is if anyone has changed their mind from yesterday," Tracy said. "If not, we'll go with that vote."
That didn'

Luke seriously couldn't believe he was doing this. Even though he told the demon king that he refused to add another harem member to the group, he didn't really have any other choice unless he was determined to kill Violet. He had already determined that the other options had a certain issue when he was determining how to get Grace to join him, which applied now.He swore that he had added Tracy to the harem not that long ago. If this was going to be a consistent issue, then he would gain at least a dozen more before the year was over. No, not even that long. The idea of having so many women traveling along with him and weighing him down wasn't appealing in the slightest. This was going to be the last time. He promised.[You can't know that. A situation similar to this one might occur again in the future. Besides, she hasn't even agreed yet. It's possible she might refuse.]That was certainly a possibility, but Luke had determined that the chances of that happening were slim. Since Vi

When Luke didn't answer right away, she huffed as she uncrossed her arms and placed them on her hips. "I see. So that's how it is."Luke should have known it wouldn't be that easy to probe her for answers. While she was younger than him and not as experienced as him, she had still gone through a traumatizing ordeal that must have heightened her awareness to prevent it from happening again. Well, at least she didn't outright attack him or otherwise show any signs of hostility toward him. It meant she was still open to talks.If she had decided he was a threat, she would have already done something once whatever her suspicions were were confirmed. However, he still had to keep his guard up, especially since he wasn't alone. He felt Grace fidget a bit behind him, but she was wisely keeping out of the conversation. With him standing in between them, Violet would have to go through him to get to Grace."Whether or not you want revenge isn't my concern." Violent's blank expression made it h
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 273: Violent Rejection (1)
"Stay back," Luke ordered Grace as she met Violet's knives.Luke couldn't see what was going on behind him, but he could distinctly hear running footsteps. Good. It looked like she had listened and run off to get out of his way. Now he could focus his attention on dealing with Violet. He knew this would have been a possibility when confronting her, but she had given him a reasonable excuse to kill her on a silver platter.The angels must have surely seen that she had made the first move. If he killed her, it would be in self defense. He wouldn't even need to use the magic circle to call on the demon. Of course, they might be suspicious about why she attacked him out of the blue, but the modified conversation they heard should be enough to deal with any of those concerns.Luke jumped back as she tried to trip him up with a kick before lunging at him again. This wasn't the time to get distracted. He needed to focus on the fight. While Violet wasn't as strong as him, her speed was quite

"Move," Luke ordered as he forced himself to go faster even though he knew he wouldn't make it in time.Grace shifted to the side just in time for the sword to fly past her and strike the rubble behind her. She winced at the sound it made as pieces of rock flew everywhere. Violet reached out towards Grace and was about to grab her when Grace suddenly swung down with her staff. The sudden action completely caught Violet off guard, and she couldn't stop her momentum.There was a crack as the staff hit Violet on the top of her head before she crashed into Grace's midsection. The force from Violet hitting Grace caused Grace to fall back and hit her head against the rubble she had been sitting in front of. The two women laid on the ground in pain as Luke finally caught up. Admittedly, this hadn't been his intention, but he was glad to see things end well in his favor.He celebrated too soon, as Violet quickly flipped the two of them so that Grace was now on top and covering her. If he want
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 275: Reluctant Acceptance
Realizing the mistake she had made, Grace stared helplessly at Luke, who gave her a disappointed look. She wasn't supposed to reveal Tracy's involvement in the matter. There was a reason why he didn't have her join their group when they split up. He had to have at least one more person to make the groups fair, and it made more sense for it to be Grace.The reason was simple. Luke and Grace already had the reputation of being girlfriend and boyfriend. If he were going to bring up the harem, Grace should be with him instead of Tracy. Otherwise, Violet would make the connection that either they had pretended to be dating this whole time or all three of them were in it together. She would probably guess the former, which he had wanted to avoid.Of course, Grace ended up messing that up, but that was fine. The chances of Violet getting out alive if she refused to listen were nonexistent. Ther
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 276: Adding a New Harem Member and Dealing With the Natives
Violet wasn't officially added to the harem until a few days later. The event itself was relatively calm compared to what they had to deal with on a regular basis. Theodore had nearly killed several groups of natives multiple times over the past few days. Some of them were even on the same day despite keeping their injuries from the previous beating. It was like they didn't learn.Each member of the party except for Grace had actually stormed off to cool their heads when they couldn't take it anymore. Even Luke had times when he was ready to twist one of the natives' necks, especially when he thought they were being too selfish and annoying. It reminded him why he wanted revenge so badly against the princess and what he would do to the people once he got his revenge.The only reason why Grace got away without losing her head was because the natives learned early on not to mess with the h
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 277: Wrapping Things Up in Town and Claiming the Quest Rewards (1)
In the end, it took nearly a month before things were somehow resolved in the town. Luke was annoyed at how their schedule had been postponed by a whole month, but he supposed it couldn't be helped. It could have been worse. Instead of one month, it could have been two months or longer. Then they would really be behind schedule.[Quest][Help the Survivors][You have helped the survivors rebuild their homes and return to as close to their old way of living as possible.][Quest Reward][You will be given 10 gold.][You may select one of the following Rare items, one of the following Uncommon items, and obtain one skill.]The quest rewards reminded him of the emergency quest reward they had received so long ago when they fought the giant goblin. Of course, it was slightly better as they got an extra item and some gold. They must have done a decent job if the system was willing to give them this much. It made the experience somewhat bearable, but just barely.Luke glanced up to see the o

As the items appeared in Luke's hand, Bobby asked, "Are those any good?""Why don't you check for yourself?" Luke asked back as he lifted the items for everyone to see.[Item Information][Enchanted Sword][Uncommon][+5 Attack][A regular sword that has been enchanted to be more durable.][Item Information][Improved Vessel][Rare][A vessel that can be used to improve any items that are placed inside it.][However, only items below Rare can be improved and can only be improved up to Rare.]The party studied the items he had. Admittedly, it had been a tough choice to make. There were several good Rare items to pick from, but he had to think objectively. Picking items that proved protection against one element might seem good now, but in the long run, it was better to wait for better items. They would only protect the wearer, and only to a certain extent. Also, he didn't need a strong weapon when he already had the claymore."Wait. Why did you get another sword? I thought you already

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

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.

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

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,
