After that encounter, there were no other surprises, though Luke didn't let his guard down and kept his eyes out for anything out of the ordinary. There was simply too much on the line for him to let anything else slip past him. The closer the day of the celebration approached, the more on edge he and the others were. Of course, their nervousness could be attributed to how excited they were about the event.
It would be outrageous for anyone not in the know to assume they were concerned about the attack on the capital and that they were essentially traitors. The only way Luke could see it happening was if the person already had reasons to believe they were capable of doing that. They were in the clear, but that didn't mean they could be careless.
Sariel had come through and located Zona. Luke had sent Tracy, with Laurel joining her. Laurel had said she didn't mind going as Tracy's backup,

Just like Sariel said, the army arrived the next day. Of course, he didn't see the demons himself, but Tracy and Laurel appeared right in front of the party to inform them of their return. While Luke wouldn't admit it, he appreciated the heads up. He didn't need more surprises to pop up. It gave him time to at least come up with some questions and a barebones plan that they could start with.As soon as the party saw the duo, Luke said, "It's been a while. Did you encounter any trouble?""Shouldn't you at least ask if they're okay?" Chris asked as he stopped waving at the women to stare at Luke.Violet ended up speaking on his behalf. "There's no reason to if they're here without any injuries.""I'm going to check just in case," Grace said as she rushed over them to heal them.It was a
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 343: Day of Celebration
It was finally time. Luke stood by the princess's side as crowds gathered in the capital. Despite how the celebration was pushed ahead of schedule, a lot of people still arrived on time. He considered that the princess might have lied, but he quickly discarded the idea, as she wouldn't have a reason to lie to him. It was likely that many of them had left early so they could arrive before the celebration.This had the unintended consequence of making things hectic as everyone had to deal with the sudden influx of people. Staring at the people, all Luke could think was how many of them would die and how many survivors there would be at the end of the attack. He already knew what would happen to the survivors, but the numbers might be bigger than originally predicted."Luke, what's wrong? You seem distracted," Princess Sweeney said."There are a lot of people," Luke said with a smile."It's to be expected. Everyone wants to come and see the celebration," she said. "What do you want to do
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 344: Dealing With Princess Lera Sweeney (1)
As soon as they were in the throne room, Luke didn't hesitate to drop her like a stone. The princess yelled as she hit the ground, but he didn't apologize or comfort her. Princess Sweeney had been suspicious when he rushed to the throne room instead of taking her somewhere safer. While it was true that the castle was safer than outside, there were other better locations in the castle.Scrambling to her feet, the princess glared at the 'hero'. She had thought she had the man wrapped around her finger by pretending to be his lover, but the way he was looking at her now was nothing she had seen from him before. His eyes held no warmth or affection. They were cold and looked down on her like she was an insect to be trampled on."What do you think you're doing?" she demanded as she clenched her fists."Come now, princess. You should know exactly what's going on," he simply said as he drew his sword.Her stomach lurched at the sight of the weapon. It was obvious what he intended, but her mi
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 345: Dealing With Princess Lera Sweeney (2)
Luke's words only served to infuriate the knight, who couldn't believe his audacity. Who was he to speak that way? Just because he was a 'hero' didn't mean he could disrespect the princess. Sir Gilbert should have never allowed this scum so close to the princess, but she had insisted that everything was okay and not to interfere. He had listened to her.Ignoring the fallen man, Luke focused his attention back on the princess, who seemed to be in a state of shock. "You hit me.""Of course I did. Did you really think that I could simply forgive you and the angels for kidnapping me from my world?" Luke said as he approached her.Even though she scowled at him, he could see the fear in her eyes as she crawled back to get away from him. It seemed like she was finally understanding her situation. He had wondered if his punch had made her stupid by knocking her brain loose. It was no fun getting revenge on someone who didn't have the sense to realize what was happening."We told you that you

"Nothing? That's too bad," Luke said. "I might have let you live if you willingly became my slave."Luke's real intention was never to drop her, no matter how tempting it was to watch her become paste on the ground. However, that would only be a momentary joy. He wanted to push her to the very brink, where she wouldn't even think of denying his offer. Staring into her tear stained face, he hadn't expected her to be this stubborn.He knew she was a prideful person, but he thought she would have a strong survival instinct that would make her accept becoming a slave. After all, as long as she was alive, she might foolishly believe she had a chance at getting back at him. Since he was short on time, he couldn't possibly try other methods to make her submit to being his slave of her own volition, which was fine in the end.Just as he was about to let go, she screamed, "Don't. I'll do it. I'll be your slave."As soon as she said the magic words, Luke smirked and dropped her. She screamed as
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 347: Joining the Fray
Amused by her words, Luke said, "Do you really think that they'll be able to take on all these demons? You really must have a lot of faith in them, or you're just grasping at straws."Princess Sweeney scowled but remained silent. She knew that the chances of the 'heroes' winning were slim. After all, no one had foreseen the demons attacking the capital out of the blue. It had never happened without warning before. They had somehow remained undetected by the angels, which was something she didn't think was possible.However, there was no one else she could rely on. Only the 'heroes' would be strong enough to take care of all the things, not that it stopped the knights from helping. It was impossible for them not to. Speaking of knights, she couldn't believe Sir Gilbert was dead. The man had been around for what seemed like forever, and now he was dead. It was unreal.Luke could tell that her mind was still reeling from everything that was happening and allowed her this brief moment to
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 348: Getting Back Together
That was the last thing Elijah heard before his world went dark. Luke stared listlessly as the old man collapsed to the ground in a heap. He had used the flat of his blade to knock him out, but he might have still killed Elijah despite trying to restrain his strength. Well, Luke should have killed him, as the old man would be an obstacle. However, he felt compelled to at least show him mercy just once.It was the bare minimum Luke would allow, given everything. Elijah had never done anything against him. In fact, he had only been helpful, and Grace did care for him. As long as the old man stayed out of his way, Luke wouldn't kill him. If Elijah chose to spit on his mercy and come after him, then he wouldn't hesitate to eliminate the man."Let's move," he said as he walked around Elijah's unconscious body.The princess glanced at Elijah before asking, "Aren't you going to kill him?""I have no reason to," Luke simply said as they continued down the path, passing running people and demo
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 349: Fighting 'Heroes' (1)
Theodore scowled as he deflected the arrows aiming for Grace, who flinched at the sound of metal on metal. Neither of them expected to be cornered and attacked out of the blue by Alyssa and Steve. They hadn't even seen or heard them coming until they were nearly hit with arrows and fireballs. If Theodore hadn't been with Grace, she would have certainly died."What do you think you're doing?" he barked."You know perfectly well what we're doing," Alyssa said as she notched more arrows on her bow.Grace stared apprehensively at the black bow. Alyssa had shown it off to them, saying it was a Rare item she obtained while fighting the demons. It supposedly strengthened her arrows and could create copies of them after they left the arrow. One regular arrow would suddenly become a dozen arrows that could cut through stone. She was basically a walking armory."No, we don't," Grace said as she clutched her staff. "Aren't we friends?"Steve huffed. "You expect us to be friends with traitors lik
