The wall closed behind them with the smooth sounds of well-oiled machinery snapping into place. John, Chemilia and Beatrice entered Scarlett’s domain. Sitting in her swivel chair, back turned towards them, she was looking up to the giant screen that she usually employed to display the map of the region.
Currently, it was instead holding a bunch of code. Now, John barely had any background in coding. Best he could show was that he had been the best in the IT class, program...

“I get the feeling I should have knocked first…” John reflected on his actions, looking at the display in front of him. It was a debauched scene, Ted lying on his back on top of the large business table, naked. John couldn’t see a whole lot of the man, though, only his middle and legs, as the general’s crotch and face were covered by two women. One was expected, his pink-haired wife Chemilia, riding his dick with the fervour of the sexually fulfilled couple.

Reysha’s teeth reverberated with an odd pleasantness as she dragged them over the bones. Scraping off whatever remains of meat were on the carcass of the monster she had slain not much earlier. She tossed the stripped bone aside and went to devour the remains of the oversized rat. Her teeth sank directly into the bloody guts, using her hands to secure the body in place as she ripped bite for bite out of it.
The dungeon she was in right now was popular with adventurers almost strong en...

“Yo, Master,” Metra met John in her typical, carefree way. She raised her hand in greeting, although not to wave, rather for some sort of clap, it seemed. Deciding to go along with that, John moved to give her something along a high five. Only for his hand to be violently grabbed and the ancient weapon pushing him down. Reflexively, he tried to work against it, but the pressure she put up was just too much. Slowly she twisted his arm. Before it got too uncomfortable, she let go. “You sh...

“Are you really fucking sure about this?” Eliza asked when John undid her arm constraints. “100% certain that this is a good idea? Because I, sure as fuck, am not.”
“HAH!” he laughed mockingly. “I’m rarely 100% certain about anything anymore. About this, I am pretty sure though.” John threw the shackles on the dinner table and didn’t think about them much further. Eliza had shown that she could stop a bit, so he trusted that she could go about without crushing anythi...

The door slowly opened. Mechanical, like anything else around here, it retreated into the wall to the right and revealed a sight that was confusing in a multitude of ways. Standing in a room of moderate messiness, not above the acceptable level to show friends, was Eliza. The bindings on her legs had been removed, while her arms were still fixed behind her back. One legged outstretched in front of her, a perfect 90-degree angle to her straight torso from John’s side view of her, she s...

“You think you can just leave along with me, without looking suspicious?” John asked Scarlett, as they walked around the Boston Airport. There was no reason to take another journey on a train, when they could take a flight to quickly get back to New York.
“No,” she answered, making sure her shades sat neatly on her face. She had contact lenses in to hide her red eyes, but the pale technophile wasn’t used to sunlight in the first place. Luckily, today was a rather pleasan...

The Council of Six, Dalaran’s governing body, was a gathering of six arch mages, one of which was the de-facto leader of the city-state. There were two most notable members amongst is rank as of that day. Arch mage Khadgar, former student of Medivh, a man who had lived to age in reverse, at least in a slight way. When he had been in his twenties, the man had been depleted of much of his lifeforce by the demon-possessed Last Guardian of Tirisfal. It had turned him into a grizzled old man lon...

Louisiana, the French colony, was purchased in 1803 for, adjusted for modern values, the price of 251 million USD. The size of the area doubled the USA’s size and still made up around a fourth of its total land mass to this day. It had been an extraordinarily cheap acquisition, even if the land was scarcely populated and had next to no infrastructure.
It was basically no surprise that he would have to grab a couple of billions in order to make an effective purchase of Ama...

Apexus felt different after consuming the demon.
Not better or worse. At least not in the sense of any mood. He was feeling more powerful, definitely. Faster, more acute, as if his slime itself had received an upgrade. This was a general trend from every thing he ate, but this time it just felt so much more pronounced. A noticeable jump in his basic power, what laid underneath all the Growths.
To which he now got to add a new one. Gizmo had been right, not that there was any doubt...

“Kinda surprised ya were willing to give up your anonymity to get this done,” Rave pointed out when they all were back in the presidential suite. The press event had concluded without further hiccups. Immediate developments could already be seen on multiple sites, John scanning things by hand that Scarlett had summarized for him already. A pure ‘I want to see for myself’ action.

John finally got the plan.
That didn’t mean he all that much liked what he saw in the execution of it. It was effective, if it worked, that wasn’t the issue, it just all felt rather risky. The first step of the entire thing was based on whether or not the enemy media took the bait that was the sudden new advertisement campaign by Planned Spikes.
They didn’t just take that bite. They pounced on it like a famished Bengal tiger on a crippled cow. Minutes after the ...

“Oh, I really like this one!” Gnome exclaimed as everyone went through a mountain of recently developed photos that had been brought into the suite by Aclysia. As to what the photos depicted, they were all different shots of Aclysia, sometimes with Beatrice in the frame, doing poses either wearing or next to numerous products. As the article line was quite expansive, both happened pretty often.
The photo the earth spirit held up was a pretty cute presentation of Aclysia in a winter ...

“I don’t get it!” Rave whined as she suddenly shot up from the couch. She reached under the back of her top and began the arduous process of unhooking the bra she had called her favourite just about three days ago. “Why does this one feel tight now! So annoying!”
John put the game he was playing on pause and turned to give her a really good look. It clicked inside his head as a joke he had already made and her appearing even sexier than usual recently came to the logical...

John’s fist kept colliding with the table as he failed to completely suppress the wild desire to punch something so hard it shattered into a thousand pieces. At the same time, the constant knocking only annoyed him further. “And I had just fucking calmed down,” he growled, reading the latest update.
In response to Beatrice’s appearance at their set, the network had just taken a photo of her at the reception desk and written an article that could be summarized with: we release ou...

“SPARK-EATER! SPARK-EATER! SPARK-EATER!“
The demon had lost all semblance of intelligence now and was screaming that single title over and over again as it tried to catch up to Apexus. They had long stopped their slow prowling and now the nightmare of sewn skin and sickle-legs rushed after Apexus, who himself was moving at the best sprint he could muster.
While a human could have easily outpaced them, the force with which their heavy bodies moved would have crushed numerous bo...

“I – hate – the – press,” John growled as he finished reading the article that had been written overnight. Not the greatest thing to start a Sunday with. “These absolute assholes.” His outcries caused Rave to raise an eyebrow in confusion, and he turned to her to read out loud what pissed him off so much.

John looked down on the crowd that had gathered in front of the hotel turned headquarters turned hotel. It was a sensible mass of people for this early time of the day, about a hundred, maybe two hundred people. The total population of Abyssal Boston was unlikely to exceed 4000, so John felt like he was drawing quite a bit of attention for what was little more than a pre-scheduled event. Wouldn’t be a visit of the head of a foreign power if there was no speech or something.

John woke up on the couch the next day. It was so unusual for him to wake up and immediately be able to see that he, for a moment, thought he was still dreaming. Then he had a look around and determined that he must have fallen asleep while gaming. Despite this, the television was shut off, as was the laptop attached to it, the controller was sitting orderly on the clean table and a thin blanket covered him. All of which were undoubtedly the work of the two maids.
Yesterday evening had ...

John was face to face with a creature that was, curiously, immune to Observe. It had metallic skin, ran on four long, thin legs that reached out of an elongated body. Its head had a single eye between two knife-like ears and a maw that only consisted of seven teeth, four at the top, three at the bottom, and looked more like a shredder than something to eat with. Probably because this thing had no gullet food could be swallowed down. The only purpose of those teeth was to bite.

“Lay-Maker. Depth-Strider. Truth-Seeker.”
Cheery, clacketing words echoed from the squelching sounds, a disgustingly mechanical contrast, now that Apexus could see the demon. To call it a creature would have been an affront to living creatures. It was a physical impossibility made flesh and that meant quite a bit said by a slime.
“Skin-Bringer. Dark-Stalker. Spell-Flinger.”
It continued to rant on, always three batches of two connected words, spoken in a steady rhyth...

The water of the pool was fantastic. Warm, it surrounded John up to the shoulders, as he sat on a bench inside, just in front of the back wall of the whole thing. A wall that was also the window separating him from the outside. He was as close to the view over the city as he could conceivably be.
Slowly, the day was fading from the city and leaving it dark. Although Illusion Barriers showed what lay beyond them, it was a lifeless representation. The many lights a city would...

John was finally done after eight hours. It hadn’t been one continuous meeting, luckily not, but rather an endless stream of events. The main meeting concluded and then somebody outside of the room wanted to talk to him, still important enough that John obliged. They had brought a friend or two and information had been dumped on the Gamer like candy to a particularly nice and cute kid on Halloween.
After talking to the first few people that passed him off in the hallway, John decided ...

Explanations about economic developments in different barriers across the city, trade outposts and manufactories elsewhere, admissions of criminal activity inside their borders, where they couldn’t deny it, in between.

After all this time, Apexus didn’t imagine he would one day search for a crack INTO the mountain. The caverns below, heated by the magma chamber of a volcano that would likely never erupt, were the birthplace of the slime. Where he had just started existing one day and had gone from there. It had been over two years since. A year down there, slowly eating its way up, through insects, clams and tiny dragons, facing ants by the end. How insignificant that now all looked. Ants weren’t even t...

Although he stretched to indicate he was awake, letting out a hearty yawn, he didn’t move in any way that would interrupt that morning service. Instead, he focused his senses on finding out who was at work there. He could have checked with the replacement sphere, or used Possession on something else, but just using his sharpened sense of touch was exactly t...
