[1% LIFESTEAL] Chapter 95 - Asura

[1% LIFESTEAL] Chapter 92 - Shackles

[1% LIFESTEAL] Chapter 91 - Eidolon of Authority

The reasons to seal a passage were as numerous as the grains of sand in a desert. However, they all ultimately came down to the age-old rule of risk vs. profit.

[1% LIFESTEAL] Chapter 87 - Disturbance

A small, isolated room lay deep within the Tomb of Harrkanna, down a meandering path and past a long line of corpses doused in black ooze. The only way to enter it was to pull on several hidden lev...

[1% LIFESTEAL] Chapter 86 - The Advent of Bloodshed

[DEVILICH] Chapter 30 - Tying Loose Ends and Climbing Up the Rope

I needed to satisfy two requirements if I wanted my story to fly. So, without further ado, I started on the first. 

But to satisfy the requirement, the truth wouldn’t be good enough. T...

[DEVILICH] Chapter 29 - Interrogation

As Martin walked into the backyard, I kept calm, eyeing the man curiously. “What brought you back so soon?” I asked him, leaning slightly as if trying to see behind him. “And why are there so...

[1% LIFESTEAL] Chapter 83 - Indecision

At first, Freddy believed that getting used to his new body would be easy enough. After all, not even an hour after he started sparring with Sophia, he felt he was already 90 percent there to maste...

[DEVILICH] Chapter 28 - Moral Compass

I didn’t have many redeeming qualities when I lived on Earth, but I did have some. One was that I was among the rare few people who truly enjoyed doing chores—physical ones, at least. 

[DEVILICH] Chapter 27 - Mystery

From possibly outing me as a d...

[1% LIFESTEAL] Chapter 81 - Slaughter

[QUICK NOTE]
Sorry for the late chapter! This was a damn hard chapter to write, and I had a family emergency at the wrong time, which cut my work time in half the past few days.
Hope y'all e...

[DEVILICH] Chapter 25 - Temple

I was back in the guard’s—Martin’s—house, having waited through the night for the morning to arrive. I hadn’t slept since I did not need sleep.

After killing the kidnapper, I return...

[DEVILICH] Chapter 24 - Agency

Standing in my incredibly tall, gangly form of a true devilich, I observed my symbiote.

I could feel the thoughts and smell the intent and desire of the cancer mass wrapped around my spinal c...

No chapter today

Feeling quite terrible, and my flow hasn't been very good for the past few days. Instead of pushing myself to shit out a half-baked chapter, I'm going to lie down and rest for the weekend so I can ...
