《Helluva Boss: Hellish Love (Loona X Original Character)》Chapter 32: The Harvest Moon Festival Part 5
Advertisement
It was the day of the Harvest Moon Festival, Loona and I woke up at about 9:00am and got dressed and then had our breakfasts with everyone before heading out towards the festival we arrived around about 10:15am-ish. There were food stalls, merchandise stores, Alcohol you name it they had it. I could see the courses in the distance and they reminded me a lot of like a military course like we had when I was in the cadets when my father wanted me to "Man up" but from the looks of it it was way more extreme. A huge crowd had gathered at the stage and there was a demon on the stage dressed in white and had a black bowtie and top hat with a cane who looked oddly familiar and as we got closer to the stage I said to Loona "Hey babe does that guy seem familiar to you?" Loona looks onto the stage and squints her eyes and then says "Oh hey it's Wally Wackford, the guy from the TV who was also somehow in the office when we dealt with our last client...What was his name again?" I thought for a moment before I remembered "Oh! Loopty Goopty" Loona snapped her paw and pointed at me and said "Ah that's the one".
By the time we got close enough to the stage Wally Wackford had begun his speech "Welcome-All-To-Wrath Rings-Annual-Harvest-Moon-Festival. To kick things off we have the great Prince Stolas here to usher in this here pain game" I looked at the tall feathered owl like demon who wore a gold crown and a red cape and I turned to Loona and said "So this that Stolas guy and Blitzo...you know? Uh fucks for the book that we use?" Loona groans and said "Yep this is the guy". Stolas walks towards the microphone and begins to speak "Oh how kind Wackford. Greetings Wrath Ring Imps, I hereby welcome you all to another year of celebrating the spoils of your labor that continue to feed the citizens of hell. I'm happy to kick off the start of these games that will challenge the toughest Imps, to show off their skill and dominance. Good luck to you all, especially that sexy little one there...Yoo-hoo Blitzy" I almost about pissed myself laughing at that last sentence and then I hear Blitzo mutter under his breath in annoyance "Oh fuck me!" Loona simply rolled her eyes and then she followed the others and I competing to the starting line ready to start off the games.

Loona was standing on the sidelines shouting "Kick their asses Carter Woo!" I was standing at the starting line, Blitzo was on my right and Striker was on my left and next to Striker was Moxxie who looked nervous. I gave him a smile and a thumbs up which made Moxxie smile lightly. Moxxie looked behind and saw the wall of other demons behind us. The starting gun went off and I belted it towards the first task and I glance behind and saw Moxxie being trampled.
The first obstacle was a climbing wall, I was already in first place and Striker was in second, I climbed over the wall and avoided the puddle on the other side. Striker jumped over with Blitzo in third place right after him, I glance behind at the wall whilst I still ran and I was surprised to see Moxxie in fourth place! He struggled to climb the wall and fell into the hole in the ground filled with water and a FUCKING SHARK ATTACKED HIM! but I kept going and finished in first place, with Striker still in second, Blitzo third, and poor Moxxie got 18th place . Which considering that it was out of 50 demons and he was attacked by a shark that was still very good for him to get top 20.
Loona ran up to me and wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed me and said "Way to go babe, first place!" I smiled and said "I am actually surprised, All throughout school I was shite at the running obstacle races, I guess that my hell hound body was all that I needed" Loona looked at Moxxie from over my shoulder and said whilst laughing "Did you see Moxxie when he fell into the shark pool?" I looked over at Moxxie and then back to Loona and said "Yeah I know, I didn't that there was a shark in there...It could've been me" Loona waved her paw and said "Nah it wouldn't have you easily cleared it along with Striker and Blitzo, Moxxie is just a wimp who's trying to show something of himself" I look over at Moxxie sympathetically who was being consoled by his wife Millie and I said to Loona "Well either way even if he knows that he can't, it should be commended that he's trying for Millie and to her family. All that anyone asks is for you to at least try right?"

Loona looks at me and her expression tells me that she feels guilty about what she said and then looks at me and says "Yeah alright I suppose that you have a point in that regard...Anyway lets go with the others towards the second task" I didn't even think about the second task and I asked Loona "Hey babe what is the second task?" Loona looked at me and smiled devilishly and said "Wrangling".
The Wrangling event was between you and another demon and the task was to wrangle and tie up you opponent. Since there was 50 of us only one could win between two so there was 15 places to be won. Everyone was given their rope and I was placed with a guy who was about the same height as Zraard which intimidated me a bit but he seemed to muscle to move also which I knew would be my advantage. The demon that I would be going up against me said "Are you going to be a good boy and heel for me?" he said in a mocking tone " Smiled and said whilst rolling my eyes at him "Sure thing mate". I look around and Striker is Blitzo's opponent and poor Moxxie is going up against a guy the same size as mine he won't stand a chance.
Another hun fires and Striker has Blitzo on the floor and hog tied already and he got first place, my opponent lunged at me and fell onto the floor and then I hogtied him so which I then got second place, and of course poor Moxxie didn't even place and was instantly crushed by his opponent, he was absolutely humiliated when his opponent tied him up he looked like a baby wrapped in cloth and only the face could be seen. I was congratulated by both Striker and Blitzo and Loona high fived me and then we made our way over to the next event which was Tug o War.

The General Core {The Sphere}
The life cycle in the Sphere is on the brink of collapse because one of its elements, the Dungeons, have been exploited too much by the mortals. The group who created the Sphere already tried and failed with several modifications, because the original computer-like dungeon cores are too inflexible to handle changing approaches. So they try another type of solution – taking souls from other worlds to try to find a solution before the Sphere Cycle breaks down completely. The General was one of the best soldiers of his world, rising from the ranks of a private through Officer School to the highest command with honors. But when his world faced a zombie apocalypse, even that was not enough and he had to make the ultimate sacrifice. Now he is asked for a repeat performance of planning and controlling a dungeon and its spawns in a world that he knows nothing about… But what is the Sphere really? What is that [Xenotic conversion] he has to go through to even enter the Sphere? Something is really strange and he will have to find out what is going on to get to his promised rewards – whatever they will be. Being a soul in a dungeon core means that the General has better chances of finding hints to the truth about the sphere – a knowledge that would help him survive. And no, the sphere is NOT a virtual reality – the key to its secrets is the place where it was physically constructed (Author’s hint). This is a dungeon core story - but there are quite a number of things that I will do differently than common to those stories. 1) I will describe the floors when they are explored, NOT when they are build. Yes, that will mean it will take longer to get to those parts - but I think describing floors both when they are build and when they are explored destroys quite a lot of chances for suspense when adventurers enter the dungeon. After all, if you as the reader already know where the traps are, then you can't really be surprised when the surfacers encounter them. 2) How the world works (and how not) is an integral part of the story, so it will be explained I'm a world-builder first and the Sphere is NOT a regular world (as hinted in the synopsis above). Things will work differently than in your 08/15 default dungeon core stories - as the General and Gunny have already learned in the second arc (and more of that is already scheduled for the next weeks (July/Aug 2019) when the Sky Arrows continue to explore and evaluate that strange dungeon) If you don't like these premises, then I'm sure you'll find a lot of other Dungeon Core stories more to your liking. But if you are interested in more than "Dungeon builds another room and corridor in medieval earth" and are not afraid of a longer and slower story, then go on. I have two more stories in the Sphere, although they both have lower priority than this one: Shaleen the Wanderer (Adventurer, NSFW) (currently on hold after some chapters) Info's on the Sphere (System Docu and Short Stories) (irregular updates when needed) Current Status reports have been moved to a new discord server: https://discord.gg/EaHkXCfm9y

D Days
Dragons were the apex predators of the magical world, feared for their strength and intelligence. They stood at the pinnacle of creation, until mankind fueled by fear and envy banded together and struck them down as the greatest threat to the continued existence of their kingdoms. Peace reigned for many years across the continent, until an accident in the Magocracy of Ken turned one of the most powerful mage lords into a power mad lich. Raising an undead army and creating a cult that worshipped him like a god, he cut a bloody swath across the continent in a bid to create his own domain. A great alliance consisting of the Kingdom of Light, the Magocracy of Ken, the Forest Kingdom of the Elves, the Mountain Kingdom of the Dwarves, and the Wild Tribes of the West rose up and the high lich was defeated, his armies destroyed, and his cult scattered. Still recovering, the world is a constant state of petty power struggles and back biting between nations. Border disputes are common and the constant fighting has taken a toll on the populations of all the nations. Of course, none of this has much bearing on the everyday life of a an ordinary young orphan in the care of a Temple run home. Or does it? *Current Word Count as of 8/4/18: 59,415 I am shooting for at least one update a week. Also, if you see any mistakes let me know and I will fix them. Cover by!*
