The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 231: The Agreement
When I woke up, Cassandra still remained asleep.I held her close as she breathed softly and she seemed to respond to it."Nnn...more...Mizik..." She said.I guess if you just want to cuddle, I can keep doing that...Eventually, she opened her eyes and looked sleepily up at me."Darling...! I had the most...wonderful dream!" She said She scooted up and wrapped her arms around my shoulders."Good morning, Cassandra. Sleep well?" I said.She nodded."Much better than in Excelsis. And my hands have stopped shaking!" She said happily."Good to hear. What did you think of the family yesterday?" I asked."They're all so nice! I can see why Mizik is so kind after meeting them!" She said.We both sat up and she smiled at me.I was glad that Cassandra got along well with everyone. But truthfully, I wasn't worried. I knew they would love her and I knew Cassandra would easily win them over.She actually managed to present herself as a nornal human being around them.When she chose to act norma
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 232: Journey Into Darkness
Once we left the castle, I saw the city of Kazekiir.It was amazing...The buildings weren't shaped the same as as traditional ones, but all seemed to be partially connected with interlocking walkways in the sky. Or at least what was considered a sky below the Void.As we walked the streets, people would occasionally react to us.And by us, I mean..."Eh...EHHHHHH!? L-LADY VALTHIEM!?!? RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!"Several people would react with pure terror upon seeing Valthiem walk around normally.It was kind of weird...She had the appearance of a beautiful young woman with dark gray hair.She wasn't particularly imposing and only wore a somewhat bulky armored robe.I mean, after all...she was probably only around 5'5. And yet...I couldn't actually think of a more terrifying entity in all of creation...Dying was surely a scary thing.And I would know...But to simply stop existing?To me, that was far more terrifying.Valthiem was more than capable of doing that to someone. "Hey, Val
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 233: Phantom Memories
As Rose sat down in the chair next to her desk, she clutched her head in her hands.It had been five and a half months since Johann destroyed a large portion of the city...And at the same time, Rose couldn't stop getting these headaches...They were always accompanied by memories that she didn't experience and images of people she swore she had seen before but never met.She began having strange thoughts that felt like they weren't hers."YOU'VE RUINED EVERYTHING!!! YOU IDIOT!!! HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME!?!?" A voice in her head screamed."SHUT UP!!! GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!! YOU'RE NOT REAL!!!" Rose yelled aloud.Just then, her mind was assaulted by images again...She saw herself standing in front of a man by an altar. There was a priest.Walter was there and...Arvild came in to stop whatever was going on.The man protected her and fought Arvild in an arena after that.He nearly died...but he won the fight.Next, she was laying in bed with her head on his chest.After that, she vagu
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 234: Descent To Madness
There are things no mortal should ever see.Technically, my lifespan was now indefinite as a result of my special abilities.But I still had the mind of a mortal.The tunnel leading into the Deep Abyss took over a weekto pass. We ended up sleeping inside of it.When we exited, the power of the abyssal flames allowed us to see everything...I saw a horrid, warped landscape full of strange plants and monsters that looked like they would all kill me in some terrifying way.The monsters varied in size...Some were small, others were larger.Some reached into the sky with their massive heights.They were titans among titans...It was hard to describe what I saw...They had tentacles, eyes, mouths...some of them were like giant worms.Others were twisted beings with multiple arms and eyes all over their bodies.Cassandra clung to me as I once again felt my head hurting.Something about these monsters was...wrong on so many levels...The ones that had mouths seemed to continuously smile. Th
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 235: Broken Mind
When I finally awoke, I could only smile.This is where I die, isn't it? It's back to the graveyard... I would rather be in the there. The graveyard is warm and pleasant... I get to see myself in so many interesting ways! I wonder if the female Mizik will go out with me!?"D-darling!? Please! Are you okay!?" Cassandra cried."Hahahah... This is fun, isn't it!? The Abyss has so many cool things! LOOK AT THAT ABOMINATION!!! THAT ISN'T NATURAL!!!" I shouted."N-nooo... Please nooo... Mizik! Please compose yourself!!!" Cassandra said fearfully."Be...quiet..." Valthiem said."I never thought...in all my life...THAT I WOULD GET SASS FROM VALTHIEM!!! LADY OF NOTHINGNESS, YOU ARE SO PRETTY!!! I LOVE YOUR EYES! LET ME SEE THE VOID!!! CAN YOU SMILE LIKE THE ABYSSAL ONES!?" I shouted as I stood up straight.I clutched my head and couldn't control my laughter."THIS ONE HAS LOST HIS MIND, IT SEEMS... REGARDLESS, HE WILL STILL BE DELICIOUS. BUT I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO DEVOURING THE FEMALE MORE! F
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 236: Awakening A Great Disaster
As time went by, I began to gain some of my bodily control back.I was genuinely amazed at how Cassandra didn't seem to care about the fact that she had to help me do literally everything. But to her, it was a vacation. A honeymoon.Currently, she was helping me to walk again. I had begun to speak as well.However...despite the fact that I was glad to have her helping me...I had also fallen into a deep state of depression and anger. Partially because of Isabella, but also...I lost something important when I descended into madness. I felt something seething below the surface.The full realization that Isabella may never return to her previous self was enough to drive me insane from grief.Not that I hadn't already gone insane, of course...But along with it, came a dark, malevolent rage that rooted itself deep in my heart. I began thinking about things.How much I despised the life I had lived...how much I hated the Oracle and the mockery that Rose was.I thought about how much I ha
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 237: The Point Of No Return
As Cassandra and I spent our morning eating the food she made, my mind had become numb.Lately, I'd been feeling a lot more angry than usual. Cassandra had decided to sit next to me instead of across."Darling, do you need me to shower you with love?" She asked."That would be nice. I don't feel motivated to do anything, today..." I said."It's okay! We can just relax and enjoy each other's company. How have your advancements been with The Archmage been, lately?" "They've been going well. I've been doing testing with creation magic...among other things," I said."Ehehehe...my darling Mizik is insatiable in bed! If this keeps up...I might truly need Isabella's help to satisfy you!" She said.I don't want to think about her right now."Let's change the subject. When do you think we should go back to...ugh...The Abyss?""Whenever you feel the time is right, darling. We still have plenty of time to relax and continue growing our channeled powers. Also...I'm enjoying the sunlight and foo
The Hero of Vengeance Chapter 238: The Catalyst
Once we arrived in Vakra's lab, he looked at me curiously. He was in human form and not wearing his mask."Good day, Mizik. Have you recovered? You still have a strange look in your eyes..." He said.I walked up to him."No hard feelings," I said."What?"I changed Vengeance into a pistol and shot him point blank in the forehead.He collapsed immediately.While he was on the ground, I placed my hand over his face and siphoned the necessary energy out of him.Moments later, he regenerated and stood up."WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU!? WE'RE ALLIES!!!" Vakra shouted."Oh, get over it. It's just one life. Now I have what I need," I said."WHAT!?" Vakra yelled.I quickly put together a spell from the two energies I held and cast them both on Cassandra and I.{Ability Upgraded! Channeled Power > True Power! Ability will now be deleted.}The skill disappeared and I let out a sigh of relief. All of my power had returned and Cassandra now had her new permanent form as well."Ah! My darling

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
