Chapter 208 – War Magic
With the exercise completed, I transitioned to the true reason I had brought my disciples with me today. I intended to give the Japanese and Nepalese forces a lecture on the nature of War Magic. Obviously, they would be spreading this information around, as would my disciples and I. However, I was well aware tha...

Chapter 252 – Mantles
The next morning, I had a meeting with Slave-Commissioner Sun Zhihao and Minister of Foreign Affairs Luisa Morillo. The reason was simple enough. The current holder of the mantle of Baba Yaga had reached out, and indicated that Russia had complied with my demands to end the sanctions. Naturally, I had to make a sh...

Chapter 57: Night Out
Two weeks after my meeting the Conclave, I got a message from Countess. She had a meeting down in Olasar, the elven enclave in Seattle, and needed some backup that could walk the walk and look the part. Usually, she tapped Demon for this kind of work, since he was the only other elf in the Conclave, but the Ola Tari...

Chapter 101 – Revelation
Once inside the city, the Lord Mayor and Captain of the Guard split off from us, no doubt to get the High Magus, and let everyone know that were not an immediate threat to the city. Frostmaw using [Shrink] to become the size of a housecat and riding on my shoulder helped, at least a little, and Rastran using hi...

Chapter 165 – Admin
Web Mistress and I pulled Black Dragon aside to one of the unused crew quarters. Most of the girls slept in my king-sized bed, after all, so there wasn’t much need for all the separate quarters, despite them being provided in the design phase. Still, I wasn’t complaining. Options were always good, after all.

Chapter 207 – Security
The exercise was a true success, in every metric that you could measure. My troops did have a bit more of a magical signature, even suppressed, than the mana-engines on the transports, but the planes were still only five kilometers out when they were detected as more than background noise with the scanners. Five ...

“Oh, MASTER!” Talia moaned as I bottomed out in her pussy, fucking her from behind. We were having a bit of a reward party for her and some of the other girls. They had made it to Level 25 in Tier 2, which was an impressive milestone, since they didn’t have access to most of the dungeons or high-...

Epilogue – Elsewhere
“Mmm, those mortals are clever,” Athena said, as she lay back against my chest. We were watching the team I had commissioned to test the Shatterchain side of the underground caverns in my dungeon. Despite the fact that we could have done that in either of our divine realms, since our domains had… not merged, ...

Perrot slipped through the Longchaser manor, quiet as he could. Which was pretty damn quiet, if he said so himself, considering he was a Level 25 Rogue / Arcanist wearing [Slippers of Silent Steps]. And he would need all the stealth he could get, if he was to accomplish his mission.
Arcanist was a rare profession...

“Welcome to Nepal, your Majesty,” Ittō Kūsa Kiya Kumi said, as I approached the exercise area near Kohalpur, near the Nepalese border with India, my disciples in tow.

The Guild had warned them of the nature of the next few floors. Oppressive darkness and caves, with only a few key areas receiving any light. Pitfalls and other hazards were present, forcing people to rely on lights, which would potentially reveal their position to enemies, letting them prepare ambushes, or turn to ...

I saluted Miko, and the rest of the Conclave, with my blade, and then followed their lead as they stepped out of the circle.

It was going to take four hours for the team heading to the center of the devastation to reach their target. Not terribly surprising, given that a literal bomb had been dropped on the city. They had supers with them that could move rubble and clear the road, but there was a difference between ‘clear a boulder...

The fight against the Pharaoh had been ‘solved’ by this point. The tricks and patterns for the curse tiles on the floor were known, as well as ways to avoid them entirely.

I knew from my time in the beta that no two binding rituals for a magical group were the same, just as no two groups were the same.

I wasn’t concerned about the wait.

This kind of greeting was actually better than most responses that we thought we would get. After all, d...

Still, they couldn’t take a break, because the horde of undead they...

The rest of the ships were trying their best to destroy the Rhuk, but that was easier said than done. Put simply, their ships were built for fighting the wrong type of war.
