For the next several minutes, there didn't appear to be any more explosions, which increased the party's worry, especially since they didn't see the others. However, they could only hope that the contigency plan was working out just fine as they slowly made their way to the fortress. They were lucky that it wasn't far from where they entered the city.
The party could already see it clearly in the distance. At their current pace, they would be able to reach it in a few minutes. Then it would be the moment of truth. Would the people see them and let them in, or would they have to find some way to get past the walls to get inside? Hopefully, it would be the former, but they would have to see for themselves.
Luke cut down another demon before he rolled out of the way of some arrows and lightning. Fortunately, Grace wasn't near him, so none of the attacks had hit her either. It seemed that th

"Well, that was close," Chris said as they paused to catch their breath.Tracy immediately turned on him and demanded, "What do you mean that was close? Where were you, and what took you so long?"Chris held his arms up in surrender as he backed away and let Bobby take over. "We hit a bit of a snag."Violet nodded her head. "We noticed.""Seriosuly, we were going along with plan A when things started to get dicey," Chris said as he waved his arms around. "Then when we tried to go with plan B, we couldn't because there were too many demons. Theodore really saved us."That was concerning, but nothing Luke and the others didn't realize right away. They had already known something was up. However, it was strange why the trio wer

Hiding his mouth with his hand and keeping himself away from the others so he wouldn't be overheard, he mumbled, "What are you up to?"[If you want to build your army, the quickest way is to incorporate a large force under your command. I'm certain you can persuade her or force her to submit to you.]Luke was a bit dubious about the idea. There were far too many problems with following along with the demon king's idea. One of them was that they were currently enemies. None of the demons were aware he was the current demon king, and revealing it might not change anything between them. In fact, it might encourage the woman to kill him for replacing her lover.[That's why I said you can use force too. If you're worried that it bothers me, need I remind you that I no longer have attachments now that I have become this.]We
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 300: Brief Discussion Before the Fight
"Is there something you want to say?" Luke asked as he stopped in his tracks.Violet, who was blocking his path, said, "I should be asking you that. I know you didn't reveal everything about the plan."After checking with the demon king that it was alright for them to speak, he said, "I intend on bringing these demons under my wing."Her eyebrows shot up into the air as she said, "Excuse me.""You heard me. To complete one of my quests, I needed to grow my demon army. This is probably my best chance at gathering a large number in one go," he said."Isn't it a bit risky? What about our other quest?" she asked."I've already talked with the previous demon king. He said we should be good to go. "I still don't like this," Violet said with a frown.
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 301: Fighting the Slime Leader
[Be honest. Do you really believe the plan will work?] Honestly, Luke didn't think so. There was simply too much they didn't know about their opponent. The other party could barely tell them anything about the slime leader. They had been able to tell them about the few attacks it could make, but little else. It was likely to have other tricks up its sleeve that they needed to watch out for. He expected one of the other plans to work, but not the first one. [How reckless.] Luke shrugged the demon king's words away as he set out to carry out the first part of the plan. Despite the fortress being under constant seige, the natives were able to help create such makeshift tools to use to try to keep a good chunk of the demons distracted. Bobby and Chris had also donated almost all of their flame stones and dust stones. They still kept a pair in reserve just in ca
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 302: Slime and Cyclops VS Three ‘Heroes’
Staring at the jars of slime, Luke checked with the demon king to see if they were cleared to go. However, he didn't receive the expected answer and scowled. It seemed the angels were too invested to see what was going on. He suspected it was because the slime was an unexpected variable. The fact that it had become strong enough to lead an army must have drawn their attention.Unfortunately, this meant he couldn't extend his offer without being caught. Well, he supposed it would have happened eventually. Their party had been going through a lot of incidents that should have been suspicious to the angels. That meant they either had to wait before bringing up the offer or simply give up on the idea.Before he could tell them the news, they were instantly on their guard and grabbed their weapons. Staring at the way they had come from, they didn't see anything, but they still didn't drop the
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 303: Slime VS Cyclops VS Three 'Heroes'
Luke had a split second to determine what to do. He could either attempt to deflect the attack with his sword or dodge it and allow it to hit Tracy. Of course, he went with the former. With his current sword, he believed he had a decent chance of at least avoiding a fatal injury. Holding Illumina in front of him, he grunted as the eye beam struck the sword at an angle.His arms screamed in protest as he held his ground to deflect the attack. The beam ended up passing over his shoulder, despite his efforts. Fortunately, it missed Tracy by an inch and struck the slime. The slime shrieked in pain as it dropped Tracy and formed an angry expression at the cyclops. Tracy and Luke quickly retreated back to where Violet was."Are you seeing what I'm seeing?" Luke asked as he glanced between the two demons."I believe so," Violet said.
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 304: Negotiating With a Slime
[You know very well that the angels are watching this fight. What are you thinking?]Luke didn't bother answering the demon king's question and approached the slime. "Hey, you must be able to understand us. Can you speak?"The slime said nothing. However, he didn't miss the way its body tensed in preparation for another fight. He wasn't sure why it chose to stop attacking them when it could have taken them out when their backs were to it, but he couldn't waste the opportunity in front of him. It would just be a little tricky to pull off with the audience they had and the apparent language barrier."If you can't speak, then can you at least show us that you understand what's going on? If you understand, make a circle," he said as he stopped a few feet away while keeping his hand on his sword.At first, nothing happened.
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 305: Defeating the Slime (1)
The slime seemed to finally notice something was wrong, but it was too late. The poison that Violet had coated the knives with was finally taking effect, making the slime slow and sluggish. It had become easier to dodge its attacks and approach the slime that was desperately trying to keep them away. Tracy and Violet got within arm's length and sliced off its arms.It screeched as Luke ran straight for it with his sword raised. With one swing, he took its head, but he didn't stop there. Just taking off its head wouldn't be enough, and he continued to cut away at the slime's body. Bits of slime flew everywhere as he hacked away without rest. The two women joined him in cutting up the slime even more until its core was exposed.Luke raised his sword above him as if to deliver the finishing blow. Suddenly, something struck him from the side. Fortunately, he had sensed it coming and blocked

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

"You idiot," Tracy said as she punched Chris in the face."Ow! What was that for?" 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,
