2024-10-29 19:42:56Luke's first thought was to launch into battle and kill the giant goblin, but he held himself back. Even though he wanted to rush in to save Grace, this was a delicate situation. Plunging headfirst into battle without thinking could get her killed. The giant goblin was smart enough to use her as a shield, and they had been fortunate that no one had accidentally killed her. For some strange reason, the system hadn't sent her back even though it should have sensed her life was in danger. The system chose now, out of all the times it could have failed to do its job.
His eyes scanned the battlefield, surveying the scene. There were currently five others besides Theodore fighting the giant goblin. If he included his party, that would mean that there were ten people in one location. This left twenty-one people unaccounted for. He also had to consider the other goblins that hadn't been killed yet. They could only hope that they

Quickly relaying the plan to him, Luke split away from Elijah to inform another person while staying out of the giant goblin's sight as Elijah did the same. The next person he encountered was an older woman by the name of Yolanda Ford. He had to double check her information to make sure he wasn't mistaken. She was pretty scruffed up too from all the fighting, and her clothes were even singed. He wondered how long they had been fighting before they showed up. "Kid, are you here to save your girlfriend?" the woman asked as she rolled her shoulders. "I suggest you stay out of it and let the grownups handle it." Ignoring her words, he said, "We have a plan to save her." The woman raised an eyebrow and said, "Tell me." Luke immediately told her what he had told Elijah earlier. It was a good thing she wasn't picking a fight with him despite her words earlier, and that the others were doing a good job drawing the giant goblin's attention and firepower away f

[Emergency Quest][Fight the Enraged Giant Goblin][You have successfully defeated the giant goblin.][Quest Rewards][You may select one of the following Uncommon items and obtain one skill.]Everyone was going over the list of items and skills to see what their options were. A few felt cheated that they were only given Uncommon items to pick from. However, it made sense since everyone should only have Uncommon stats and their enemy hadn't actually been that powerful. They were given items suited to their current level, and the fact they got to choose at all was a big deal.Luke remembered how the system cheated him out of his rewards in previous ques

Theodore looked away from the screen in front of him to face Luke the moment he heard him coming. He had known this would happen sooner or later after seeing how Luke reacted earlier. No, this confrontation was inevitable, even if Luke hadn't found out. Grace would have told him once she woke up. If she hadn't, Theodore wouldn't have kept quiet about it.Thinking of the girl who had gotten hurt because of his mistake made him clench his fists. If it weren't for her quick actions, he might have been the one in her place. He couldn't believe he had made such a blunder, and he had been thinking she would hold him back when he found her hiding behind some rocks alone. Of course he couldn't leave her alone in such a dangerous place, especially when she was covered in blood.He never thought she and the kid would ever separate. They were practically connected at the hip. It was strange that sh
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 100: End of the Tournament (3)
Luke froze. Did he say the giant goblin ate a stone? A simple stone wouldn't have done anything to the giant goblin. A giant goblin didn't gain abilities by eating rocks like some demons did. It also didn't make sense for it to randomly swallow a stone despite being considered one of the dumber demons. Theodore had to be mistaken about what he saw, but what if he hadn't?What if the giant goblin ate the stone since it knew it wasn't a normal stone? What if it was the item that the emergency quest was referring to that made the giant goblin stronger? Even with its pea brain, it should be able to tell the difference between a regular stone and an item. If that was the case, the question was what kind of stone was it that made the giant goblin stronger and gave it the ability to breathe fire.There was only one stone he could think of on the top of his head that could have made it possible:
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 101: Tournament Winner and Rewards
Princess Lera smiled as she said, "Congratulations to our heroes for their victory over the demons."The crowd cheered as the princess inwardly fumed over what happened. Nothing had gone as she had expected. Of course, it was expected that some people would be eliminated from the running. It was impossible for it not to happen, but she hadn't expected someone to be taken out within minutes of being sent to fight the demons. She was embarrassed to see him return.It didn't matter that the hero was only 12 years old. They had already gone through extensive training, and it irked her to see how she made her lose face in front of her people. The only good thing was that this information was contained within the kingdom. She wouldn't be able to bear it if other countries caught wind of how horrible the heroes in country did in comparision to their heroes.Sh
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 102: After Tournament Talks (1)
"Are you really okay?" asked 'Kayla' as she watched Grace stand up and stretch."I'm perfectly fine," she insisted. "It just feels like I crashed after staying up too late to study for a test."Luke had to admit that she had made an odd comparison. While he did think she might be awake when he made the decision to visit her, he hadn't expected her to be up and ready after what happened in the cave. It was completely unreal how fast she recovered, no matter how amazing magic was. Magic wasn't a perfect cure all for everything, despite what some people believed.Even the healers that had been treating her were staring at her like she was some kind of monster. He couldn't bring himself to blame them. If he didn't know her so well, he would be afraid to go near her. He considered asking the demon king for answers on why she recovered so quickly, but the dem
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 103: After Tournament Talks (2)
The princess calmly stared at Luke over the rim of her teacup. She had wanted to speak with him earlier, but there had been many other things she needed to deal with, and their talk wasn't essential. However, even though this talk wasn't as important as the other matters she was dealing with, she had wanted to demand answers from him right away about certain matters, like how he failed to get into the top five. She had been ready to praise him and make a show of how she was supporting him in front of the masses.Those plans were ruined when she couldn't find his name in the top five. What was worse was that the man who had undermined her authority before had managed to get a tie for first place. She had never been so insulted before. If she didn't have an image to maintain, she would have thrown a fit and ordered something to be done about the results. Unfortunately, it was already too late since everyone had seen it.Keeping her mask on, she chose to redirect her focu
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 104: Guilt Tripping Theodore
"Hey," someone shouted across the room.Luke stopped in the middle of his conversation with 'Kayla' to see who was calling for him even though he already had a decent idea of who it was. Theodore was making his way towards them with obvious intent in every step he took. He probably intended to finish their conversation from earlier. However, the dark expression on his face indicated that he was not in the mood to deal with Luke.Whatever went down between Theodore and the princess had soured his mood. Well, it wouldn't be that hard. The two of them despised each other, and the only reason they were meeting at all was because the princess had to keep her image. It would be bad if she refused to meet the first place winner but met someone who wasn't in the top five. That was fine with him. Maybe he could discover what they have been talking about and see if he could use that information fo

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,
