The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 135: Lost And Found
In the following few days back, Isabella had become increasingly...frustrated...Even if I couldn't show her love directly, I could still be intimate with her. That part of me still worked, fortunately.However...There was the issue of Cassandra.She was acutely aware of everything happening around their body and that made things awkward...REALLY AWKWARD.She wanted to switch in while Isabella and I were...having a romantic moment...For a while, she kept trying to force the issue until I told her to stop.I had to promise her another reward for allowing us to spend some time together.She wanted me to hug her and stroke her hair...Isabella would only tolerate so much, but reluctantly agreed.This agreement, by the way, came after a lot of negotiating. This was due largely because Cassandra wanted the exact same treatment as Isabella. She was supposed to be my slave, but wanted me to show her the same kind of love as my wife.It wasn't that I still held the torture against her, it
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 135.5: The Agony Of Iris
(A/N: This chapter revolves around Iris and what happened to her after she departed for Excelsis shortly before the death of Dante. It also goes over the events that occurred after Mizik and Isabella/Cassandra went to Delvandal. For anyone interested, that is.)After Iris and Johann Ignitus, they arrived at the Divine Transit Station in Excelsis.It was possible to enter and exit the realm wherever a god or goddess pleased, but...It was generally considered poor etiquette and somewhat dangerous to not use the station. After all, appearing on top of someone could seriously injure them and was also quite rude.Nevertheless, Iris and Johann exited the station and walked a short ways."Would you mind if I visited my daughter? I haven't seen her in a while and i need to make sure my home world is safe," Johann said."You mean your apprentice?" Iris said."Well...she's more like a daughter. But yeah. I shouldn't be long.""Hmm...that should be fine. Sorry...I'm just really scared for Ignit
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 136: Foxfire
When I opened my eyes, I found myself in an empty white room.I sat up and looked around... Nearby, I saw a woman with long dark hair in a familiar outfit with fox ears atop her head.There were also nine fluffy fox tails coming from her back."Hello, handsome. How are you sleeping?" She said.I simply stared at her face and wondered where I'd seen her before."Who are you, again?" I asked bluntly.She looked somewhat taken back by this."Y-you...don't remember me...?" She asked.I shook my head."I could swear I've seen you before, but I can't remember who you are.""Akari! From the guild!? The SS-Rank voluptuous beauty from the Dark Knights Guild!? Ring any bells!?" She said."I don't think I'd call you a voluptuous beauty, but I think I remember the name from the Guildmaster. You're the one who harassed us on our way out to a job, right?" I said."I was just saying hi!" "Why did you feel it necessary to charm me, then? My wife's si-...I mean, my wife said you were doing that.""R
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 137: Heart Stones
After we went upstairs, I knocked on the Guildmaster's door and heard him speak."Come in, please," he said.Isabella and I walked in and shut the door behind us."Ah, good. It's you two. Isabella and...Markus?" Gearo said.I just sighed."His name is Mizik. Miz-ick. It's not that difficult to remember, Guildmaster..." Isabella said."Right...my apologies. Mizik and Isabella. I was just about to send for you two because I have your reward ready for the request. The total sum of money is around 12,500 gold coins. Which is around four years of wages at a regular job. Well done!" Gearo said."What rank was that quest?" I asked."It was originally A-Rank, but after we sent the previous group and they didn't return, we upgraded it to S-Rank. We have a system to rank the pay of requests involving a combination of the ranking of the request itself, the manpower needed, and also the payment from the one posting the request. ""I'm sure that's very interesting, but I have a-"Before I could fi
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 138: Annoying Adventure
Akari had to be one of the most insufferable people that I had ever met.First, I couldn't trust her at all.She initially lied to us to cause a rift in the group and used blackmail to form the party in the first place. I assumed that she wanted to set herself up as the favorite. After that, she tried to move in on the reward money that she didn't earn under the pretense that she was 'part of the group and deserved a share'.She didn't work, so she didn't get paid.I assumed she was the kind of woman that Michael would avoid.A 'man-eater'.Someone who wraps her tentacles around a guy, chews him up, and spits him out after taking everything he has.I wasn't about to be a victim of that.Now we were traveling..."Can you to catch us some food or something, Mizik? That would be pretty useful," Akari said."We'll eat after we set up camp for the night. We had a meal two hours ago," I said."But I'm hungry! You wouldn't want me to starve, would you!?" "I might happier if you did," I said
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 139: The Mansion
At some point during our journey, we entered a forest steeped in a heavy fog."This is a really powerful illusion spell..." Cassandra said quietly."Can you dispel it?" I asked.She shook her head."If I could cast and control wide-reaching giant illusions, I might... But I can't do that...even with Deception," she said."Yeah...this is way above my skill level, too. I don't think I could touch this one," Akari said.I tried to grasp the magic hanging over this place, but I couldn't.I would need a significant amount of time to come close to that, and I wasn't about to waste any more of it.The journey had taken longer than expected. We were tired from moving so quickly to cover lost time...thanks to Akari.Regardless, we continued onward."Mizik darling, before we leave this place, the fog will have to be dispelled. It looks like it's designed to keep people from leaving," Cassandra said."Alright. Everyone stick close. We don't want to get separated in the fog!" I said aloud.At onc
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 140: Hesitation
When Isabella woke up, she had no idea where she was.She found herself lying in a cell. "Where...are we?" Isabella said."I don't know..." Cassandra said."I remember being pulled into the mansion, but after that, everything went dark..." Isabella said."At least we aren't in our underwear like that time you were at the Iratus Estate..." Cassandra said nervously."Look, that was partially your fault, you know? If you hadn't told Tyranus about our trip to his office, we wouldn't have been caught!" Isabella said."H-hey...I feel terrible about that, okay!? And Tyranus already planned to attack you, regardless. Please forgive me for that, sister...""Alright... You're forgiven. Besides, it's all in the past. That was over thirteen years ago, anyway.""Yaay! Isabella is merciful just like my darling Mizik!" "Please stop fawning over him...""I can't help it! He's all I can think about! I was in the pit for so long and the only thing that kept me sane was the thought of seeing him again
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 141: Carnival Of Death
As Akari and I walked, we began to see more and more regular servants cleaning the mansion.Akari seemed to be scared of them because she said they were secretly undead cloaked in illusions.Apparently, she had been attacked multiple times by illusions from her past. The one of me was by far the most aggressive, however.I took comfort in knowing Akari might have been secretly terrified of me. I didn't think I was cruel, I just despised her deceptive behavior.Right now, she seemed perfectly normal. I found myself beginning to trust her.Eventually, I saw Leiso walking towards us."Here we go again..." I said.I raised my shotgun and prepared to fire."Relax," she said. "I come in peace. I just want to talk.""I know you aren't really Leiso," I said."Obviously. This is an illusion. I chose this form because it brings you comfort. I have a question for you, though... Mizik, was it?" The fake Leiso said."Are you the one in charge here?""I am a manifestation of his power containing hi

Chapter 256: Soul Splitting
The Oracle was quite literally dragged to the Cursebreaker. She had gone completely insane after being killed, tortured, and reset ten thousand times."I have successfully discovered the source of my curse," Vakra said."Is it her?" I said as I looked at the Oracle.She wouldn't move anymore."No. Her power is part of it, but she isn't the one who cursed me. I'm guessing that it was a higher power. But who could be higher than the Oracle? The Creator, of course.""So you were cursed by the architect of all of creation? That makes sense. Why would he want you running wild and defying reality like that?""Ugh...it pains me to admit it, but you are correct, Mizik... My abilities made a mockery of his creation and I was likely cursed as a result. Meaning that I can never erase this curse.""So sad to hear. But that's also a good thing for me. I don't think I would trust you if I couldn't contain you," I said."Right...and you'd be correct to assume such a thing. But I suppose I should get
Chapter 255: Spectacle Of Revenge
I was led to a large staging area where numerous gods of the realm had gathered. Isabella followed and I instructed Stella to stay back.The three of us, that being the Albatross twins and myself, were the ones most hurt by the Oracle's actions.Today...she would suffer in front of her people. And they would bear witness to the monster she created out of her own stubbornness and stupidity.We currently stood backstage. We were waiting for the Artificer to give the signal. And that's when I heard him speak."Greetings, people of Excelsis. As you well know already, I am the Artificer. The Guardian of Dominus. Today, you have all gathered here without knowing why...and soon you will find out. Good citizens of the realm, some of you are still haunted by the things you saw before the reset was ended. Most of you have no clear idea as to why Excelsis was violently razed to the ground by the man who calls himself: Destroyer. Well...that is the folly of your former leader. The Oracle is the o
Chapter 254: Festivals And Mind Control
Finally, preparations were complete and the festival began.Currently the three...or four of us? Were walking through the city streets and looking at the different attractions.That is to say, the Albatross twins and Stella.I allowed the others off of the ship so that they could enjoy themselves for a bit. The Artificer assured us that the area was secure. He was sure that the Oracle's Faithful had completely abandoned Excelsis.On every corner, we saw a squad of six drones. Additionally, other groups could be seen flying around above.Still, despite all of this...Isabella remained ever vigilant. Always clinging to my arm and staying right next to me. Despite the Artificer's reassurance, she continued to protect me.Stella followed behind with a content smile on her face.After a short while of looking at the different attractions, I found Iris along with Carlos and Leiso.Carlos looked a bit bored while Leiso seemed out of place.Iris was playing a game at a stall featuring several
Chapter 253: Missing Faithful
A few days later, things were finally beginning to look different in Excelsis.I could see flying metal constructs buzzing around in the air on insect-like wings, surveying the area. At the same time, many of the people of Excelsis were setting up decorations for a festival.Hilariously, they wouldn't know what they were celebrating until the day arrived.And as I sat on a bench nearby, Isabella sat happily next to me, clinging to my arm.Stella stood at my side surveying the area.There would have been other troops under her, but I chose not to bring them. The soldiers were specifically for the defense of the ship itself."Hmm..." "Is something wrong, Master?" Isabella said."You're having way too much fun calling me that, aren't you?" I said."Ehehe...guilty. I like seeing your reaction. But if I'm going to be a slave, I should play the part, yes?"I suppose so..." I said."I, for one, believe it to be perfectly natural to refer to his Majesty as Master," Stella said."Hm...right..
Chapter 252: Heart Resonance
As we walked back to the Cursebreaker, I could see Isabella constantly surveying the surrounding area for potential threats.However, many of the gods walking the streets recognized me as the one who razed Excelsis to the ground. The one who brought death and destruction to their realm.The result, was that they were absolutely terrified of me and made no attempts to approach.After all, many of them had actually been killed as a result of my actions.All the while I secretly remained on the lookout for a potential candidate. One goddess from this realm would join us on our ship. They would become mine forever and dedicate their existence to serving me and stopping the Corruption.But unfortunately, none of these would do. They were weak. I decided to ignore them and focus on something else.I had other plans, currently. I would be speaking to Iris and everyone about what she had to show them. They were valuable crew members, so I wanted to see what she had planned.Once we reached t
Chapter 251: Big Plans
After a month-long journey back to Excelsis...we finally returned.I couldn't believe how long it took to get back.We didn't have access to the divine transit, and as a result, it took much longer to get there.Of course, that gave me an idea. I wondered if I could potentially have a personal god or goddess to join our crew.Then I stopped and though about it more...Definitely a goddess. While more pleasing to look at, I could bring her even closer to me. And if she's completely under my control, she'll follow every order willingly. Best of all, someone like that is highly unlikely to betray me. I wouldn't have to enact vengeance upon her and remain on good terms...I almost smiled.That would be my next goal...find a goddess to join our crew to have permanent access to the divine transit.And maybe...Make new Enforcers...?It was too amazing. Our combat force would grow significantly from such a thing. We would be even stronger than before!I made a mental note to also have Iris t
Chapter 250: Artificial 'Intelligence'
While waiting on the final shipment of heart stones, I stood outside the Cursebreaker with Cassandra. We were also waiting on...the body for Virtus.The AI for our ship was a shy girl that had trouble talking to people. Unfortunately, I didn't know enough about computer programming to change her behavior. And Vakra refused even under the threat of death. So...we were stuck with her...A hour passed and Cassandra affectionately held onto my arm while humming."Having fun...?" I asked."Of course! I get to be with my darling Mizik!" Cassandra said happily.Then I looked forward and saw an eye staring at me in mid air a few feet away."Oh...damn it all..." I mumbled.It opened wider and Valthiem stood quietly with her mask on."Valthiem!? What are you doing here!?" Cassandra said as she readied herself."..."Then I felt that suffocating impending doom I had grown quite used to...Difar rose out of Valthiem's shadow and glared at me."Dammit...I had a speech prepared and everything. I w
Chapter 249: Payback
As I reached the bridge, I saw Stella charging straight for me."MASTER MIZIK!!!!" She shouted."Umm..."She nearly tackled me to the ground and began crying on my chest."You're alive!!! My beloved Master Mizik is alive!!! I'm so happy!!!" She cried."Yeah, I'm fine... Can you please calm down?" I said.She slowly pulled back and dried her tears. She smiled joyfully."I'm so glad that everything is back! Even if that horrible curse is still upon you, it means I have the pleasure of serving my beloved Master! This is a joyous day for me!" Stella exclaimed.Before I could respond, I heard the voice of Faith again.[This woman is filled with a great adoration for you! She also holds amazing power! May I petition you to let her hold me, my Lord!?]By the gods...fine...[Aha! But is the Overseer not greater than any mere lesser god!?]Please stop."Stella...I have a request," I said."Ah!? Does Master Mizik find me appealing? I can serve you in all sorts of ways, Master!" She said.Sudden
Chapter 248: Home Visit
The next day, I decided to visit the Cursebreaker before meeting with the Artificer.Cassandra was with me and Isabella stayed back. The two of us boarded the ship and were immediately confronted by Rastair."Good to see you, Ras-""MIZIIIIIIK!!!!!" She shouted as she hugged me."GET OFF ME, YOU DAMN GIANT WOMAN!""I'M NOT A GIANT!!!" She said as she pulled away. "Ugh...what is it!? Did something happen!?" I said."What!? Of course something happened! Iris already told me! You died, didn't you!?" Rastair said."Yeah, but I'm fine now! What about it!?" "Oooh...are you not in a good mood? That's kinda hot... Want me to give you a fun time? I'll make you feel better~!" She said with a sly smile.I could in my current state, but it might kill you. So no."Hard pass. For your own safety. Get stronger and we'll talk.""Ehhh...you're no fun..." Rastair said."You died on Delvandal, didn't you? When Rose destroyed it?" I said.Rastair nodded."I was just relaxing on Ripper Isle, sipping a g
