The servant bowed in return. "It's an honor to serve the heroes."
Luke murmured a quiet thank you as he bit into his meal. 'Kayla' accepted the food with a look of disgust that the servants ignored. They had explored quite a bit of the place and occasionally bumped into some people as they saw what the training grounds had to offer. The only person who was remotely amazed by the place was Grace who kept asking questions they pretended to not know the answer to.
"Why don't you join us?" Grace asked as she indicated to the woman to sit down on the ground with them.
"I have to go back to work," the servant said before leaving.
"Are they really that busy?" she asked. "I mean there doesn't seem to be a lot of people here, and I can't imagine what they would need to do besides some cleaning."
After swallowing his food, he said, "Who knows."
Grace frowned bef

"What's going on here?" a knight demanded.Just like he expected, people were trying to see what the commotion was about. A very small crowd was beginning to form, and he could see a few more people coming to see what was happening."Buzz off," Theodore snapped.The knight frowned. "Heroes shouldn't be fighting each other.""Did I say I want to hear you talk? I don't think so," he spat.The other knights shared grim expressions at his words. Despite that, none of them reached for their weapons or demanded he take his words back. His status as a hero was keeping their tongues in check and left them to endure his verbal abuse. This was perfect."Do you have no shame?" At the sound of a woman's voice, everyone turned to see said woman with her hands on her hips. She crossed her arms as she continued her rant. "You're despicable. Ever since we got here, all you've been doing is spewing out toxic words. Seriously, does picking fights with everyon
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 33: Impressing the Natives and Humiliating a Fellow 'Hero' (2)
Luke didn't get a chance to process what he had just read before he was forced to dodge another swing. He could feel the wind brushing against his cheek and hear his opponent ordering him to fight back, but his mind was too busy trying to figure out what was happening. He had just received a quest from the demon's system, right in broad daylight and in front of so many witnesses. While it was true that none of the humans could see the windows, that didn't mean the angels couldn't. To think he would be exposed too early. But was he? Not a single angel appeared to smite him. There was no way they would ignore such an obvious sign. Two reasons came to mind for why this was. One of them was that no angels were currently watching them, which was discarded the moment he thought of it. The idea that they weren't constantly monitoring them was ridiculous. The other reason was that they couldn't see the demon's system. Unfortunately, this wasn't the time to be thinkin

"Y-you were amazing," said Grace after she and 'Kayla' managed to squeeze past the meager crowd. "Thank you, but I was lucky this time," he said as he took them away from the crowd. "Next time I might not be so lucky. I need to get better." 'Kayla' huffed. "Obviously. Seeing you stumble about was so embarrassing to watch." Though he was still smiling, he swore to punish her the moment Grace was out of sight. The sight of her uneasy expression was enough to tell him that she heard those particular thoughts. He hadn't yet determined how much of his thoughts she could 'd have to see what she could hear from him later tonight in his room. "I-I'll do better too. You can count on me," said Grace as she raised her clenched fists. While he hadn't intended for her to get fired up, he had no reason to put her down. "I look forward to seeing that." Grace beamed at him as if he had praised her even though all he said was he was interested in her p
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 35: Midnight Meetings and Plans
'Kayla' opened the door and closed it behind her. The time limit for her quest was going to end soon, and she hadn't managed to get them any closer. They had wasted time looking around like they were on some kind of date, and she had been the unfortunate person acting like the third wheel. This wasn't what she had been expecting after what he'd done to her the other night. Wasn't he planning to get revenge? Nothing he had done today showed he was acting on those desires except for when they had to listen to the kingdom's princess and knight. She wasn't sure what was going on in his head even with her ability to read his thoughts at times. "What are you doing? Come over here and sit on the floor," said Luke who sat on the bed. He looked exactly the same as yesterday, sending shivers down her spine. Doing as she was told, she approached him and stopped a few feet away from him. She hesitated for a brief moment before she kneeled before him. The same burning ang
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 36: Rushing to the Training Grounds
Grace sighed as she snuggled deeper into her soft bed. Her sleep was disturbed by someone throwing the door to her bedroom open. Jolting awake, she tugged the sheets closer to her body as she struggled to shake off her sleepiness. Standing at the door was Luke. "Wh-what are you doing?" she asked. "I'm here to make sure you get up on time. Hurry and get dressed. We should have time to have a light breakfast before heading to the training grounds," he said. Confused, she stared at her curtain covered window. "Is it time? It looks dark." "Of course it's still dark. It isn't dawn yet. Since it took us three hours to get there, I figured we might need a few extra hours because of how dark it is," he said before leaving her to get dressed. He leaned against the wall next to the door as he listened in. If she fell asleep again, he would have to go back in and wake her up. Hopefully, he wouldn't have to, and he waited patiently for her to show up.

[Warning][Comply with the designated mentor's instruction.][Failure to do so will result in a punishment.]"What is this?" demanded Theodore.He wasn't the only one to see the message. Everyone had a similar window pop up in front of them, warning them not to go against Sir Gilbert. Unfortunately, Theodore didn't seem to understand how serious it was."I was wondering if this thing was ever going to pop up again. What is it going to do to me? Tell me to behave," he said.Theodore wasn't wrong to think the system wouldn't do anything to them. Everyone so far had only seen their status screen and nothing else. They hadn't even seen the message regarding the 'Tutorial' quest. That privilege was reserved for Sir Gilbert since he was their mentor who had assigned the quest. Only he knew the full details of the quest. Even Lu

Sir Gilbert shook his head. This was worse than he thought. He knew that not all of them would be able to complete the training workout he had devised for them, but not a single one had even gotten close to finishing any part of it. How was he supposed to get them into shape and send them off to the battlefield in a month?

Grace scooted closer to him and whispered, "Do you know them?"Luke didn't take his eyes off of the duo as they started relegating stories about their home lives after talking about their experiences in this world so far. They were part of the rare few who already knew each other before they were summoned. Both of them had been best friends since childhood and did everything together.People had even mistakenly thought they were siblings or related in some way because of how close they were and their physical appearance. While Bobby had dark red hair and light green eyes, Chris had red hair and light brown eyes.They had even pretended to be each other several times by simply wearing contacts. No hair dyes had been used, and they somehow managed to get away with it each time. So, in a weird twist of fate, of course they were summoned together even if their numbers on the list didn't reflect that.Seeing how carefree they were reminded him of the last time

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,
