《Deck of Cards》Meeting of the Demon Lords
Advertisement
In a circle shaped room, there was seven throne around a circle shaped table. The room itself was gray and everything in this room was completely smooth. The thrones were white and had cushions on them. The table was black and thick.
There isn't any doors in this room and only by magic, you could access this place. Like right now, two people appear on this room.
One of them is a man in his early thirties, with short black hair and green eyes. He has black cat ears on his head and black cat tail swinging around behind him. His a cat beastkin. His face is ruggish and average looking. He currently is wearing, a black outfit with small compartments on his belt and throwing knives placed all over his outfit. Behind him is a female fox beastkin, who wears the same outfit, but with no knives.
"Looks like were the first ones here."he tells her, as he sits down his throne and buts his legs on top of the table.
"It seems so, Teacher."she replies to him in s beastkin language or Beastian.
After waiting for a while, a woman with pink haired beauty with pink eyes appear, with a Gray haired demon behind her. She is wearing a beautiful long pink dress, that shows a little cleavage. Xeeht behind her is wearing the same clothes, like he always wears.
"Luxuria. You're actually dressed modestly for once. What a surprise?"the male beastkin tells her and she replies, after sitting down"Avaritia. You still talk too much."
"Ooh. So mean Lux."he looks at Xeeht and says"Love the colour of your outfit. Matches your..skin."
"And I love yours. Matches your ears."Xeeht says back.
After a while, another girl appears. She is about 1,5m tall with silver hair and yellow eyes. She is wearing gothic clothing. The first thing she does is yawn and fall asleep on her throne. Unlike the other two, she doesn't have an attendant with her.
"And Acedia showed up. For the first time in ten years. Kinda amazed."Avaritia says.
"Sup bitches. I'm here!!"is yelled by a drunk man in his late forties. He is bald and has a long brown beard. He is only wearing pants and his beer belly is in full view.
"Dammit Gula. Put your fucking shirt on. No one wants to see that!"Luxuria yells out, only to be replied"Hey...Show me your tits."
"Xeeht."Luxuria says and he replies"Yes Mistress."
He says and walks behind Gula and puts him to sleep with a dagger covered with sleeping potion.

"Why is he drunk again?"Luxuria asks and Avaritia replies"He's not drunk. He's sober. When his drunk, he is like a gentleman. Trust me. I have seen it."
She opens her mouth and is about to ask something, but instead says"I better not ask."
Soon another pair appears. This time it's two woman, who both are wearing black full body armor and so their faces can't be seen. One of them sits down and takes of her helmet, revealing a beautiful black haired girl with a thin scar running down the left side of her beautiful face. Her eyes black and her beautiful smooth skin is tanned. Her ears are pointy, but not very long.
"His sober again?"she asks, while pointing at Gula.
"Yep, Ira."Avaritia replies.
"And Acedia showed up finally. Even though she is sleeping."she says, while looking at the peacefully sleeping girl on the chair.
"Mhm."
"Well then only two left."Ira says and puts her feet on the table two.
Finally the two last ones show up at the same time. One of them is wearing a heavy white armor without a helmet and his handsome face could be seen. He has blue slit eyes and blue hair. Behind him, is a female, dressed the same way and with the same colours.
The other one was a twenty or so something year old boy, with a scrawny body and was wearing regular clothes.
"Superbia and Invidia are finally here."Avaritia says and immediately Superbia says"Quiet, Avaritia! Legs off from the table. You too Ira."
"Okay."Avaritia says
"So bossy."Ira mutters.
Everyone had arrived and had seated on their seat. But two out of the seven demon lords were sleeping peacefully. Gula was sleeping with his head on the table and drooling, while Acedia had crawled up on the chair.
"Now that everyone is here, we can start our meeting about the Summoned Heroes. They have been summoned here, to kill us and Luxuria here is supposed to have information about them. Luxuria. If you would."Superbia says and looks at her.
"Xeeht!"she orders and Xeeht immediately says"Two weeks ago, I, by the order of Mistress, went to evaluate them. All together there was twenty four heroes, one human Royal Guard and a Wood Elf in the group. Total of twenty six in their group. Out of the twenty six, only six could actually accomplish something. Their jobs are: Legendary Hero, High Priestess, Berserker, Blade Dancer, Controller and Master of Cards."
He stops, to let them think about it for a little time.

"I know what the other jobs are, but what the fuck is [Master of Cards]?"Ira asks.
"Language."Superbia says and Ira shows a middle finger to him, which he pretends not to notice.
"I myself don't know it either. In my entire life, I have ever heard of that title."Xeeht replies to Ira.
"Okay. So putting this new job behind, why them?"Avaritia asks.
"Legendary Hero has the Holy Sword and armor. His skills are high level too, but he isn't the most dangerous. High Priestess has max level Holy and Water Magic. Her combat abilities aren't strong, but her support abilities are. Blade Dancer. High combat abilities and [Blade Summon]. A power to be able to draw blades out of thin air. Dangerous in a right hand. Berserker. Can go berserk and have his strength increased twenty times, but become mindless. Controller. Power to control living things. With his current state, not a thread. In the future, could be huge. Combat abilities are average im human standards. Finally the most dangerous. Master of Cards. His job is completely new with two new skills accompanying that. [Magic Cards] and [Magic Deck]. What they do, I don't know. For now I know he can use Space Magic without having the [Space Magic] skill. Also he can survive a poison dragons poison, which was applied by stabbing him in the stomach. Even If he lives, he will die in three to six months."
"So he won't be a problem."Ira says.
"Later, yes. Now, no. If he wanted, he could take at least one of you down, before he dies in battle or by the incurable poison."
"Tell me more about him. He sounds interesting enough for me. Maybe I'll give him a honorable death in battle, instead of him dying on a bed."
"Yeah *yawn* tell more."is said by a cute voice, by a cute demon lord, who decided to wake up.
"Acedia. You're actually awake."Avaritia says in a surprised voice.
"Yeah. I heard Ira was actually interested in fighting somebody. Also. Hi Ira."Avedia says, while rubbing her eyes.
"Hi, Ave."she replies back.
"Continue."Superbia orders.
"Yes. Master of Cards name is Echo Zain, nineteen years old. Unlike the others heroes, whos title is a [The Summoned Hero], his is [The Summoned Anti-Hero]. He also has the [Killer] title, which only he has too. Apparently he also is a [Mercenary], so with enough money, you could hire him. But the most interesting is [The White Demon]."
"And why's that? All seven of us here are called a demon lord, even If none of us is actually a real demon. Avedia is a vampire, but stupid people still call her race a demon. I have no idea what Luxurias race is. She looks like a succubus, but doesn't have tail it horn."Avaritia says
"I'm an Amozonian."Luxuria says.
"Okay. I'll remember it. But anyway. Only real demon here is you here. Everyone else is a different race."
"Could i finish my explanation?"Xeeht asks.
"Yeah su-"Avaritia is cut off.
"Where the hookers at? *Snore*"Gula just suddenly yelled out and fell back asleep. Everyone is looking at him for a few seconds, before Avaritia finishes his sentence"Yeah sure."
"Thank you."he continues"I'm interested in that title, because the Heroes come from a world, full of only humans. So obviously I would be interested in a person, who in his world, would earn a nickname "The White Demon". Makes you wonder what he has done. He also had the [Killer] title, which means he has killed innocent people."
"And all of us here have that too."Avaritia adds.
"Well anyway. That is my report on them. It shall be your decision what you do with it."
Xeeht goes behind Luxurias chair and puts holds his hands behind his back, while standing there.
"As you can see, the heroes are weak currently and their strongest is dying. So we are going to win this war and finally put them back to their place, where they were put before the New Age, by my grandfather Lucifer."Superbia says and gets up from his throne.
"In his name, we will put this world back in order."
"""""In his name, we will put this world back in order."""""the others repeat that.
"Until then."Superbia says and disappears with his attendant.
"Well Ave. Wanna come for a tea?"Ira asks her and she nods, before they also disappear.
"Okay. Kitsu. Lets go habe sex."Avaritia says and disappears with his attendant.
"Xeeht. Remind me to never come here on time."Luxuria says and disappears too with Xeeht.
Now only sleeping Gula and Invidia are left here.
"I wish I had their live, except for his."Invidia says, while looking at drooling Gula, before disappearing.
Hours later, Gula wakes up and looks around, while saying"I need to get drunk." And he too is gone.

The Ascendant: Endless Reincarnation
My name is Richard Brooks. I died while saving a kid. Kicking the bucket at 28 was really depressing, you know? There’s so much I still wanted to do. But instead of passing on, I was thrust into an endless series of reincarnations. Whenever I die, I earn Karma points based on my achievements and growth. These points can be exchanged for weapons, spells, or other bonuses to make my next lives more interesting. “What kills me only makes me stronger!” Or something like that. Honestly, it feels like I’m stuck in an RPG. The difficulty setting can be pretty ridiculous too. Sometimes all I can do is grit my teeth in frustration as I die an ignoble death. But I won’t complain. Even when it’s dangerous and painful, I love life. This is all an opportunity; I’ll do my best, no matter what kind of sadistic fate the System throws at me. I will swing the warhammer of justice! Craft and enhance the most amazing artifacts! Overwhelm opponents with a barrage of auto-casting spells! Lead powerful vassals in Domain wars! All for the sake of creating an eternal sanctuary. With my unique power of Runecrafting, maybe I’ll even become strong enough one day to overturn fate… or at least find out what the hell is really going on. It might take a few hundred or a thousand lifetimes, but what’s the rush? I have all the time in the world now. (Note: R15+ This is the work of a very inexperienced author with a full time job. Please expect an erratic release schedule.)
