Kyle let out a moan of pleasure, as he sank in the warm, hot bath. So good!

Lynette’s inn was a top-notch establishment, a stone mansion renovated into a resort for adventurers and merchants; he had his own room with a king-sized bed and full access to a private bath in the back.

Kyle had left his clothes and weapons nearby, just in case. He had had a nasty experience with a naked ambush in the past, and it didn’t hurt to be paranoid.

Kyle glanced at the copper plate around his neck. Following Ogron’s ‘last meal,’ the adventurer guild had upgraded him and Sen to copper-rank adventurers. Of course, from what he had gathered, the guild itself still had no idea how to handle the dragon and simply decided to follow due process until King Gardemagne or the Shining Crusade ‘settled’ the matter.

Kyle had no idea what to make of the dead cyclops’ axe however. It didn’t have any magical powers, and it was too heavy for anything but a giant to use. He figured he would let Sen toy with it, then

    “Truly, if they didn’t make the best princesses, there would be nothing to salvage from elves,” Sen agreed. “No matter how many times we dragons put them in their place, at the bottom of the food chain, they never learn.”“We Agarthans delighted when we learned how you cast down one of their outdated feudal states.”“Wait, are you dwarves, or Agarthans?” Manling Kyle asked, confused. “You keep using those words interchangeably.”“We are Agarthans by our nation and Duergars by our species, but we call ourselves dwarves as a political statement, for we are all equally small.” Too many names. Sen subtracted them a point in the potential minion ranking. “Most of the dwarves on the surface are traitors to the revolution or helpless drunks that we expelled.”“Interesting,” Sen replied. If these dwarves expelled their drunks, then he could perhaps eat them safely.“Emperor Sen, let me first congratulate you on your nation’s first step towards achieving Averagism,” Marbré said. “You are among

    “I still think Your Majesty should see them,” Manling Kyle insisted. “Also, I finally identified the scammers who took credit for your death.”Sen’s head immediately perked up in interest. “Where?” he asked, gleeful at the idea of settling the score.“Charlene studied the guild’s archives, and identified them as a disbanded Silver-Ranked adventurer company from the merchant republic of Barin, the ‘Blue Rose Legion.’ They were a classic four-person party specialized in big game, monster-hunting work.”“Disbanded? They are dead?” Disappointing. Sen would have Jules raise these criminals from the dead as skeletons, so he could kill them properly.“I’m not sure, the papers said that they separated in Barin twenty years ago, dissolving the group. I think that after claiming the reward for Your Majesty’s head, they earned enough money to retire.” The mere idea infuriated Sen, who had already taken their slander personally. “Thankfully, Charlene found a quest in Barin which could help us inv

    Sen Krendrath, First of His Name, Great Calamity of the Age, Emperor of Murmurin, Ishfania, and the Valen Mountains, and Protector of all Hoards, had waited so long for this moment.He hadn’t allowed anything else to distract him; for a whole month, he had waited in his great vault, sitting on his ever-growing hoard. He had counted every single one of these thirty days of patience, meditation, and focus; every hour between him and this golden moment of pure bliss.As the minutes separating him from his greatest pleasure turned into seconds, the pressure became almost unbearable. The echo of his tense breathing filled the underground vault, as his eyes widened in greed.Then, it finally happened.A large pile of gold, as shiny as the sun itself, materialized in front of Sen, perfection made metal.“YES!” Sen roared out in relief, as he hugged the coin pile tenderly like a father with his child. After a whole month of separation, he couldn’t put a word on the joy he felt. “It is fine, e

    The Black Rabbit oversaw the slaughter with his cold dark eyes, before raising his horn to the heavens. Electricity surged from it, as he pointed it at the Rangers while the weaker rodents distracted them. “Black!” Pink warned her ally, as the horn pointed at him, firing a thunderbolt. “Watch out!”But even the Black Ranger couldn’t outrun lightning. He barely had the time to look at the monster, before the bolt hit him in the chest and sent him crashing against the fence, defeated.“You beast!” Yellow snarled, breaking the formation and rushing at the Black Rabbit.“Wait!” Red shouted his rapier red with rabbit blood. “This is what he wants!”The last of his dread servants defeated, the Black Rabbit’s horn shone bright, the monster’s size increasing. Within seconds, he had become as big as a cart, walking on his back legs.The mammalian titan let out a roar and impaled Yellow Ranger with his horn, like a bull with a manling. The kobone was propelled to the side, his spine breaking in

    “His glorious Majesty, Emperor Sen’s Bragging Day will happen soon!” Red reminded them. “For the sake of the Emperor, we cannot embarrass him. Our dancing and motto must be perfectly executed. And… and...”“And?” Pink frowned, sensing her leader’s troubled mind. “What is stressing you out so much?”“Rolo has a quest for us,” Red continued. “A very dangerous quest. A monster is feasting on the vegetables. If this continues, the livestock will starve, and His Majesty’s Bragging Day Feast will be ruined!”“Who would dare launch such a treacherous attack?” Black spat on the ground. “The elves?”“Worse,” Red replied ominously. “A rabbit.”A rabbit. The ancestral nemesis of koboldkind; they fought those mammal vermin over burrows since the dawn of time. The brave fathers of the Rangers’ warren had managed to fend off one of their invasions before Pink was born.Now, it was her turn to defend the burrow of Murmurin against those hungry monsters.“And not any rabbit,” Red added, turning away

    “Your Majesty?” Kyle asked, his body slippery and sultry from the gold shower.“You know what I want, Minion,” After watching him swim in his golden hoard, he could barely restrain himself. “You are the shining jewel of my hoard…”Kyle blushed, his white skin glittering like silver in response. Truth to be told, he had never dared voice his feelings for his great, wealthy master.“Bragging Day is tomorrow, and I need to… treat myself,” Sen’s voice was heavy with desire. “Lay on the gold.”“Pink, what are you writing?”Writing in Nethermart’s cozy drink shop, Pink jumped out of her seat; she accidentally dropped her beer cup on the ground, much to the imp barista's annoyance.The other Rangers looked at her in confusion. “Pink, you’re late for the training, and Red is getting mad,” Black said, frowning at her as she whistled. “Now you’re acting suspiciously.”“She’s hiding the text behind her back!” Yellow said, trying to circle her.“No!” Pink turned to face Yellow, only for Blue to u
