《The Darkness In Your Mind》V2 - Ch 9 Humans vary, but most are weak pt 1

I say "A letter, who is this demon lord?" Lano says "The demon lord Phonexus Spirum is one of the two demon lords on good terms with Rein Strevus. His innate demon lord ability is the power to control flames themselves without magic chants, he can also imbue weapons and items with his flame magic."
He pauses for a moment before continuing "He is very powerful but a good guy in many ways according to Rein Strevus, so he's trustworthy. The demon lord Goatus Craftum is good in many ways and trust worthy just like Phonexus Spirum and is also the second demon lord on good terms with Rein."
I say "I see, alright then give me the letter, I shall see what it's about." Lano then gives me the letter and I open it, there are two things in it, I take out the first thing and read it.
"Dear Demon Lord Brine Dark,
I am writing you to say a few things and to introduce myself since I can't do so in person right now as I am quite busy at the moment handling affairs in the kingdom I reside in. Anyway, as you probably already know I am the demon lord Phonexus Spirum, I wish to be on good terms with you and mean you no harm. I want to help you grow to be a good demon lord and not a shitty one like the two who are on bad terms with Rein and don't care about others or their own people and only care about themselves. I will write to you occasionally and eventually if I ever have time I would love to come meet you in person. But for now since I can't help you very much due to all the business I am handling in this kingdom, I can only do one thing to help you for now.

The second paper in this letter is a spell chant that summons a demon that will serve you if you so wish. However there are some things that you must know about this spell. First of all is that currently, with how your magic particle flow is right now due to you gaining your new humanoid form you won't be able to summon a demon at all. Next I should tell you is that even if you do summon one, there is no guarantee they will listen to you, you must gain the demon's favor, make them like you, if you don't then they can just defy you and run away. Summoned demons aren't mindless slaves that will follow your every order, they are intelligent creatures that are free to do what they want just like us, and sometimes summoned demons are extremely powerful and could kill the summoner. Wait until your magic particle flow is strong enough to summon a demon, but also work on improving your swordsmanship and stuff like that too so you can protect yourself against the demon if it decides to go against you.
Sincerely,
Phonexus Spirum"
I look at the other thing in the letter and it's the spell so I don't read it and just put it in one of my pant pockets instead, I then turn to Lano and say "Alright, was there anything else Lano?" He nods and then says "Yes actually there were two other things, one of them is actually a letter from your parents and the other is a package from the demon lord Goatus Craftum."
I say "A letter from my parents, how did they find out where I am?" Lano says "It was actually sent to the adventurer guild since they didn't know where you live, Rein Strevus has a friend at the guild so he sent us the letter from there after he got it." I say "Ah, alright I'll read this first and then open the package that Goatus sent."

I then read the letter, all it was is them asking me to visit them on Monday since I have been gone for a while now. I decide I'll visit them on Monday since I want to see them anyway, I also want to introduce them to Lucy because they would probably love her. Today is Saturday so I have another day to prepare if I need to.
I then open the package that Goatus sent me and take out the letter that is inside it first and begin to read.
"Hello Brine, I'm going to skip formalities of a letter like 'Dear Brine Dark' and stuff like that because it's not my style. Anyway I'm giving you a cloak that has a empty magic stone so you can focus some magic into it when you get a particle flow again, then you can control what it does. Rather it protects you, or improves your speed or something like that, it doesn't matter as long as it's magic, your welcome.
From,
Goatus Craftum"
I pick up the cloak and take a long look at it, it has a grey hood and black cloth for the rest of the cloak just like my old one except this one is made of really great material, there is also a magic stone in the middle of it just below where the neck is and right on the chest. It's truly an amazing looking cloak.
I put on the cloak and smile before saying "Now I have something in case I have to hide myself again for some reason or sneak around for some reason. Can't say I miss wearing a cloak everywhere because I don't, but they do look pretty damn cool I gotta admit. Plus it's pretty warm too because of the material and it fits perfectly."
Lano says "Alright that is all that there was my lord, I will take my leave now." I nod and say "Alright, I'm going to start preparing to go to my parents house, first of all I want to tell Lucy what they're like and get her some cute clothes for them to see."

ROACH- rising pestilence
A weary mind awakens in an unfamiliar body, lost, confused, scared, and very far from home. He doesn't know where he is, he isn't sure what he may become, and his stomach growls hungrily. But he knows one thing. He must feed and he isn't too bothered on how, only when. Through his struggles to survive trying to take his place in this world. It, the world will be forever changed. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My first story here so let's do it! hopefully with flying colors. (This story is not about an insect that goes on an edgelord, death rampage, so those who came for that, know now what you are reading and stop rating down thx, still, some murder and mayhem is involved) Feel free to critique, I will be checking on reviews and comments every now and then to see what others think of my writing and how I might adjust it in the future. (although I'm also doing this for fun so don't get your knickers in a twist if things don't change to your liking). (Know that even if you comment/review that doesn't mean I will respond or that I will take your advice, after all, I too have my own preferences). A chapter tends to come out every fortnight, however sometimes it may be sooner or later, It depends on how lazy I'm feeling or how busy I am. Ps. A friend of mine drew the cover art, appreciate its homebrew goodness. PPs. serious readers may want to read the author's notes as well. PPPs. If you rate down please say why, I want info, not merely ratings that don't tell me anything, preferably in comments, so I can try to best satisfy my audience, or at the very least understand their reasons.

After Z
The signs were all there. A mysterious fever spreading in the wake of the pandemic. Increasing incidents of unrest with surprisingly little coverage by the media. Breakdowns in basic services. Nick had thought for years that total social collapse would come in his lifetime – he just never expected that collapse to come from the unquiet dead. As soon as he was sure enough that the potential danger outweighed the awkwardness of admitting that yes, the dead were rising, Nick grabbed his bug out bag and bugged out. It felt, at times, that the zombie movies, comics, and games he’d grown up with had been preparing for this moment. And Nick was right. But also very very wrong. After Z is an apocalyptic occult interactive serial about survivors hiding from the dead in a forest preserve. A new chapter is posted every week, and every week supporters vote on which way the story flows. This story will be added to daily until it's caught up with its current state elsewhere; if you don't want to wait you can read ahead on my blog.
