2024-10-29 19:42:56Realizing 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

"So that's it then. Now that everyone has their rewards, we should get going," said Bobby."Wait," Grace squeaked, making everyone stare at her and causing her to wilt under all the attention.Luke had no problem speaking for her and said, "Grace hasn't chosen her items yet. She says she doesn't know what to pick.""Oh, I can help then," said Chris as he waved his hands in the air ecstatically.Grace gave him a small, uncertain smile. She obviously didn't want to ask him for his opinion after his poor choices, but she couldn't bring herself to reject him outright. Well, Luke didn't have a problem with telling him outright, and he wasn't the only one either. Theodore, Tracy, and Violet seemed to think the same as him, given the looks they were sending Chris's way."You," Theodore scoffed as he crossed his arms.As Chris glared at the man, Bobby patted Chris's shoulder and said, "I think that while she appreciates the offer, I don't think we are the right ones to judge. The other three
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 280: Someone Gets Kidnapped on the Way Out
Grace wasn't sure how she had ended up in this situation. One moment she had been with the others. The next she was surrounded by demons. Well, that wasn't completely correct. She vaguely had an idea of what happened. It all started after she had chosen the items she wanted from the list. The choice had been really difficult, but she had made up her mind.She had picked the spectral chalice and enchanted staff. Everyone had been surprised she had picked the spectral chalice, even Luke, who had suggested the item. The name did sound a bit creepy and looked just as bad, but the item description sold her on getting it over all the other items she could have picked from.[Item Information][Spectral Chalice][Rare]
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 281: Saving the Damsel in Distress aka Grace Again
As the party stared at the tree with a huge hole in front of them, Chris quietly said, "Oh."Tracy threw a look in his direction as she said, "Oh."Luke almost felt sorry for him. Almost being the key word. It wasn't his fault that the nursery of racoons had somehow converted a tree into their home by creating a large hole in the bark and digging a hole in the dirt inside the tree. Unfortunately, even with the work the demon racoons put into it, it would be a tight squeeze for most of them.Theodore definitely wouldn't be able to fit inside. He would get stuck trying to fit inside the tree. That meant he would have to stay behind while they went in to find Grace. However, there was a problem with that plan. They wouldn't be able to defend themselves since they would already struggle to crawl inside. Also, there would be no way to escape if something ser

As soon as Grace saw that the coast was clear and it was just her party, she said, "Hi everyone.""Hi? Is that all you have to say?" Chris asked incredulously as Theodore helped her up. "You were kidnapped by demon racoons.""I'm sorry," she said as she bowed her head.Bobby elbowed Chris and said, "Ignore him. We were just seriously worried about you. You're not hurt, are you?""What happened to your cloak?" Tracy butted in without giving Grace a chance to answer.Grace stared blankly at them for a moment before she shook her head. "I'm fine. Actually, there's something I want to show you."Then she turned around and bent down at the hole as everyone stared at her with curious eyes. What was she doing? They couldn't tell what she was up to, but they

"So this quest of yours is a long and ongoing one," said Violet as she had her hands folded in her lap.The party, except for Tracy, who was holding the reins, sat around in the cart facing each other. They had left the area with the demon raccoons not too long ago and were making slow progress through the woods. Luckily, no demons had jumped out to attack them so far, but they were on their guard so as not to have another repeat of the earlier incident. No one wanted Grace to get caught again."That's right," said Bobby as he turned his head to fully face her."That's inconvenient. I don't have the same quest," she said as she raised a hand to her chin."It is a bit of a problem," Luke agreed with a nod."How is it a problem?" Chris asked as he raised a hand.

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.

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.

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.
