Paved With Good Intentions Chapter 16

~The Family That Stays Together~

Eveleena’s home was located in a pocket dimension of her own creation that was several hundred acres large and meticulously crafted and maintained for over the course of several decades. This dimension was naturally a demon realm and contains all the features of one despite its ‘artificial’ nature. For instance there was heavy miasmic corruption filtered the air that rendered everything in a dark purple hue, the lush vegetation sur...

~Return Of The Matriarch~

Despite her grievances with her defeat at the hands of that Valkyrie, her perpetual worry about Jacob and general dissatisfaction with her current state of affairs Eveleena couldn’t say that it wasn’t nice spending time with her siblings. Eveleena had a great relationship with her family even past their annoying quirks and nosey tendencies. The only reason why they don’t meet regularly was because of personal obligations. Their parents we...

The results of his time in this regard bore fruit as it turns out the Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist was the perfect base for him to learn other forms of martial arts. After years of roaming the world he ended up amassing quit...

Daily Life With A Lilim Chapter 12

~Home Improvement~

Compared to their visit to the furniture store Ezraphel and Stanley’s trip to buying new kitchen utensils was comparatively shorter and more mundane. Perhaps it was because the store they went to wasn’t a sprawling warehouse of wonders but in actuality it was because Ezraphel herself wasn’t very focused on deliberately stretching out their time. As such they only spent so long getting the appropriate kitchen utensils and Stanley actually did bu...

Daily Life With A Lilim: Easter Special

Waking up in the absence of his girlfriend’s presence and fighting off the bright light attempting to pierce the veil of his eyelids were his first and second warning that today was going to be one of those days. So it was with a sigh that Stanley sat up and wiped the sleep out of his eyes whilst adjusting to the brightness. Once done he finally got to looking around and immediately noted something very important. Stanley was not in his room or even in his house as far as he can se...

Daily Life With A Lilim: Valentine's Special

Grocery shopping with Ezraphel was something of a bi-weekly ritual. Ezraphel may be able to dine exclusively on Stanley’s spirit energy (aka semen) but she also likes the taste of food. More than that she likes cooking food especially for Stanley and has a penchant for trying out new things. With earth’s global cuisine available at her fingertips Ezraphel has added at least one new thing to their grocery list every visit even if it was just a one off.

As for Stanley he actu...

Yesterday…

Garou limped along the road bruised, bloodied and holding his side. Today he experienced his first defeat although ‘defeat’ would imply a battle when in reality it was more akin to a curb stomp. In his life he had only ever experienced such a thorough beating once and it was at the hands of his old master which was the expected result. His fight against Watchdog Man on the other hand was not only one-sided but also unexpected and Garou...

Z City Neighbors Chapter 10 [Reupload]

Last night a number of heroes were attacked including the C-Class Hero Mumen Rider, A-Class heroes Golden Ball and Spring Mustachio, most members of the Tank Topper Army and shockingly their leader the S-Class hero Tank Top Master. It also turns out that one of the minor sponsors was also attacked later that night. Such an unprecedented attack was carried out by a young man by the name of Garou who went by the moniker ‘Human Monster’ due to proclaiming himself monster despite being human....

Z City Neighbours Chapter 11

Because of Glasses’ quick thinking along with the liberal use of tasers he and Needle Star along with their teams were able to safely incapacitate their brainwashed comrades while Fubuki kept the monster preoccupied. It seems without her reinforcing their brainwashing by giving them frequent commands it starts to lose its effect and her victims become more like shambling zombies. Because of this most of the brainwashed members of the Blizzard Group got off with relatively minor injuries tha...

~The Worst Outcome~

Eveleena Astaroth has lived for over three centuries and in that time she has experienced quite a lot. At least that is what she thought until three short years ago when she journeyed to the human realm on a mission to carve out a fiefdom for herself. This mission would eventually have her visit a quaint little town that was remote in its location and overlooked by just about everyone. It was in this innocuous place that Eveleena would discover somet...

~The Next Best Course Of Action~

‘Why am I still here…just to suffer?’

These were Jacob’s thoughts as he collapsed into the grass with his mind and especially his body wracked with exhaustion. Today was his second day of training and Jacob was not handling it about as well as someone who went from harsh but reasonable physical labor to torture endurance in a single day, i.e. not well at all. He could be exaggerating but in his de...

~Complications~

When Sigrdrífa left to rescue Jacob she left Isobel saddled with several unfortunate duties. One such duty involved having to explain to Jacob’s parents what happened to their son. That talk went about as well as one would expect with telling two parents that their only child was kidnapped by a cabal of monsters. What made it even worse was explaining to them that since they cannot afford another attempt like this on their will not be making a return ...

~Catching Up~

If one were to ask a stranger about Wenia then more often than not they would mention how the small Kingdom located to the North was doing well for itself. A peaceful, stable kingdom whose borders are protected by the Chief God’s chosen and whose people flourish under the wise leadership of its benevolent monarch. This is the perception that Wenia projects to the outside world as all Kingdoms ought to do but much like all those kingdoms Wenia is not as i...

Z City Neighbors Chapter 9

Two men walked the streets of City B. One seemed to be a regular civilian wearing a purple tracksuit and carrying a duffel bag while the other was none other than the world renowned S-Class Hero and Strongest Man in the World, One-Punch Man. From the looks of both of men they appeared to have been caught up in battles though given their uninjured and unbothered states it didn’t appear to be an issue for either men.

Both men would have caught the attention of most by their mer...

~Regrouping~

Sigrdrífa didn’t stick around after Caitlin's sudden disappearance in a literal cloud of smoke. On the contrary she pulled him under her arm and flew away at top speed. Being up so high and going so fast with a silent and probably, definitely, angry Valkyrie was the most terrifying experience of his young life. When the two landed Jacob had to rest himself against a tree to catch his breath while fighting down the urge to dry heave.

~Assault And Valkyrie~

It was now late in the evening, the sun was beginning to wane and Jacob was treated to the sight of four inhuman women organizing a camp in a patch of forest way off the beaten path. Roselyn was setting up the tents, Ysmeina tended to the horses and Caitlin was preparing food ingredients for dinner. Riseth was the most interesting of the lot for she stood in the middle of the small clearing clutching her now glowing staff and muttering words under...

~Complex Context~

A week ago Jacob went to visit someone who he thought was his friend, someone whom he thought he honestly wouldn’t mind spending the rest of his life with. She was a beautiful woman and until recently was the most beautiful woman he ever knew. He was in love or at least had a deep crush on this woman. Then on one particular visit the wall came crumbling down, literally and when next he woke, this woman, his friend was gone. Her house was destroyed an...

~From Heaven To Everguard~

Before she came to Everguard or even the human realm itself Sigrdrífa was part of Epsilon, a battalion made up of the finest Valkyrie warriors Heaven had to offer. After making her mark on the battlefield and attaining the rank of lieutenant Sigrdrífa spent the last thousand years honing her skills, sparring with her contemporaries and training her subordinates. It became a droll routine she eventually grew tired of but there was nothing els...

~A Beautiful Lie~

Jacob spent the next several days with his family who had given him up to Sigrdrífa. At least that’s how it seemed to him but he learned that things were not so simple. First of all one does not simply deny a Valkyrie and it was as Sigrdrífa told him, her words were a decree by the Goddess Erestia herself and one cannot deny a God without incurring consequences, that was as common sense. He was fortunate then that Sigrdrífa did not take offense t...

~A Change Is Coming~

The sounds of grunting, skin slapping and moans filled the room as Ezraphel rode Stanley cowgirl style. The room was rife with the scent of sex and Demonic Energy was plenty abound. Thankfully with the latter it was not to the point where it became visible however, it is not necessarily an exaggeration to say that any normal person exposed to it would jizz in their pants.

In any case the Lilim and her Incubus lover were thoroughly eng...

~Demon Realm Sweet Home~

Arsgoetia was known by many names throughout the world but chief among them was The Infernal City. Said to be the Demon capital of the world Arsgoetia was actually home to the first civilization started by the ancient Arch-Demons who escaped the confines of hell several millennia ago. Back then it was little more than a small settlement but now it stands as a monument to corruption and a dark metropolis to all infernal ...

~Glorious Purpose~

His journey to consciousness came gradually but once it did a small groan rasped past his lips. His mind was befuddled and memories were hazy at the moment. What he did realize however was the state of his body, it was not a sensation all too dissimilar to tiredness after a particular hectic day at the shop but this was different. It wasn’t that Jacob was tired it was that he was weak and it was the kind of weakness that penetrated his very bones. ...

Z City Neighbors Chapter 7

It was mid afternoon and the sky was a clear blue. There wasn’t a single dark cloud in sight and a gentle breeze swept through the air mitigating the heat of the beaming sun hanging in the center of the sky. It was the perfect weather for a normal day, some would even call it a beautiful day but for Tomoro Sazaki he found it to be ironic.

“The weather does not reflect the mood of this day at all.”

He says this whilst standing atop one of the tallest skyscraper overlooking ...

She would like nothing more than to follow through and press the advantage she gained however there was another matter to attend to first. At some point the house caught fire, she paid no heed to this as she quickly made her way over to the boy. He lay unconscious as an effect of having the corruptive energy forcefully purged from his body. After picking him under her arm she cut a swath through the mansion with a swing her lance and b...
