The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 174: Looking For Trouble
This was a stupid-ass idea.We were currently on an airship with a large detachment of troops...two weeks later... The Enforcers decided to stay behind with Vakra and Rastair was currently still being experimented on.We were alone and Cassandra was still stuck to my arm happily humming to herself.The problem wasn't even Cassandra. It was the fact that we were searching for a needle in a world-sized haystack.We didn't have a single lead or any reports of Corruption-related activities.Warping landscapes, monsters, or anything else...nothing.This was the other problem with magic worlds, as Vakra put it.Worlds that had magic typically relied more on magic to make life easier than technology. Worlds without magic tended to be more advanced in technology.There were exceptions to every rule, of course. But I digress.On the other hand, Corruption thrived in worlds of technology because they were easier to infect. The only downside was that information got around faster and the people
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 175: Building Forces
Once we returned, Vakra began working with Isabella to carefully examine the sample we obtained.At the same time, Rastair approached me."Hello, Mizik!" She said cheerfully."Oh, you're still alive... Did you get taller?" I asked sarcastically."WH-WHAT!? DID I GET TALLER AGAIN!? NOOO!!!" Rastair wailed."It was a joke. You didn't really grow," I said."You...really shouldn't make jokes. You always sound deadly serious when you talk! Anyway, how do I look?" Rastair said.She raised her left arm and I saw a similar device implanted in her to the one in Isabella."Vakra said you still have to transfer my soul. That will complete the process and make me immortal!""Fine, lean over for a second," I said."Wh...why?" Rastair said."Because you're so damn tall and I don't want to reach up over your boobs to touch your heart," I said."H-hang on! I'm not that tall! Also...you can touch as much as you like!" Rastair said with a sly smile.Damn perverted giant woman!"Just lean over!!""Ugh..
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 176: Heart Soldiers
The female soldiers were highly responsive to my orders. They did everything I told them to without hesitation, exactly the way I told them to do it.It was great.They had also cleaned and organized our room a great deal. Not a speck of dust remained on anything when I arrived.It was nice to have such loyal servants, but...One of them in particular seemed much more zealous. That would be Stella, of course.She had a very similar disposition to Cassandra, except that she revered me like some sort of god as wellRegardless...I also learned all of their names.They were as followed: Stella, Nagisa, Soire, Edel, Mina, Astarte, Nemari, Olivia, Mikoto, and Claire.I would do my absolute best to remember, but I made no promises.The male soldiers arrived as well.I wasn't sure what to expect at first...but Alwen assured me they were an especially zealous lot who believed that the Emerald Demon would save the world.It was about that time that I realized I had been named a demon for the
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 177: Waiting Game
We spent five years preparing for every possible outcome that could have arisen from the Corruption.In that time, the landscape began warping much more than it had when it arrived. It was interesting to see the process that took place on a magical world from a wider perspective...and also being able to do something, unlike last time...We had managed to check on Zangriol, the frost dragon.We went to speak with him every few months to ensure his safetyAccording to Zangriol, world dragons were exceptionally powerful and made to combat such threats. They were deeply imbued with Animus energy. He assured us that unless he allowed it, he should be able to resist infection. He wasn't Kelvastiol, after all.All we could do was fight back and try to save Delvandal for now.In the five years we spent here, Vakra eventually caved under pressure from me and began preparations to build a ship.So far, the crew would consist of myself as the commander with Isabella and Cassandra holding the sam
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 178: Extermination
The Astrum.The name of our personal airship.At least, until Vakra finished building our other ship. Speaking of which, Vakra had once again refused to come with us. He wanted to monitor the situation from afar and continue his work on increasing the Enforcer's powers.I still felt upset at him for declining to join us afterwards...but I had to respect his decision. It might have even been better this way.Vakra said that we would likely meet again someday as well...But that was only after we had departed Delvandal.The idea of having my own ship and going to other worlds to fight the Corruption excited me... Almost to the point of hurting my head.We were on the Astrum, en route to our destination. First, we would be looking at Port Sagral. This particular airship was one of the stronger types used by the Elysium military.And since it was Elysium technology, it went without saying that the one we used on Ignitus paled by comparison.We'd become very familiar with it as well. We
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 179: The Avatar Of Death
The shadows in front of us moved and formed into a humanoid figure.There stood Aldaril Sano, the Avatar of Death. He summoned his lantern and looked back at us."Looks like I'm just in time. Although, you probably don't need my help," Aldaril said.We really don't. Any second, Isabella would have just erased them all. Still..."It's still appreciated. We're a little outnumbered, so I guess it helps..."Aldaril seemed somewhat confused."You can summon undead too, right?" He said.I had to stop for a second as the realization hit me.Oh...I forgot about that...Was it weird to have so many abilities that I simply forgot that I could do these things?I'm only human, after all..."You forgot, didn't you?" Aldaril said."I...no! I didn't forget!" I said angrily.I totally forgot "I can clearly tell that you're lying. It's written all over your face. Tell the truth. You have to set a good example for others," Aldaril said."I kill people all the time. No one says a word about that. But I
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 180: Port Sagral
"Wait...what?"I was in shock. "You weren't aware? That order was sent out a while back for her capture, but some people chose to ignore it. She's been slowly building an army to attack Elysium and take you down," Aldaril said."Why the hell would she go so far!?" Isabella said angrily."Beats me. Akari is really petty about such things. A minor offense can usually result in humiliation, serious injury, or even death, with her. If she's going to such lengths for you, it's likely that you pissed her off royally. What happened, exactly?" Aldaril asked."That's...a long story," I said."We have time. Tell me while we make our way to Sagral," he said."Very well..."* * *As we flew to Port Sagral, I explained the entire situation that happened from the moment we departed Aldaril's mansion all the way to the mountain. Once I had finished, Aldaril simply frowned."I hate to say I told you so, but...""I know, dammit! I should have shot her in her sleep and dumped her in a lake! But I was
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 181: The Fox Sisters
"Umm...sister? No. This is my apprentice. I found her in a lab-""YOU UNDEAD BASTARD!!! YOU TURNED HER INTO A CHILD!!! YOU MONSTER!!!" Akari screamed. Before any of us could speak up, Nasuria narrowed her eyes at Akari and stepped forward."Stop your yelling! You're giving me a headache, Akari! And how dare you insult my caretaker!" She hissed."Hold on... Nasuria! My big sister! What has he done to you!? Is this some kind of evil charm magic!?" Akari said."No, you idiot! I was experimented on and had my entire being implanted into a child weapon! This man saved me from a fate worse than death! I will not stand for you insulting him!" Nasuria said."Wh-what!? This filthy undead saved you...? And why are you being so cruel, sister? Don't you love me?" Akari said.Nasuria sighed heavily and turned to Aldaril.She bowed her head deeply."I apologize for her insolence. My little sister has always been a problem for me. Please bear with it for a moment, Master Aldaril," she said."Yeah..

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
