Legend of the Hunter: Chapter 4 - [S] Fight. Talk. Don't die.

[Dreamscythes231]

Beowulf:After the meeting,forget the green demon.Was he here? Nah.Leave him.

[Wessolf27]

>Beowulf: Actually have a spare amount of Yes-men crammed in a closet or something once you killed one of them.

[Druplesnubb]

>Beowulf: Actually have a spare amount of Yes-men crammed in a closet or something once you killed one of them.

This please.

[That Didn't Stop]

Yes, we should absolutely assess the threat that these brothers pose to you. Capital idea, Lord Beowulf!

[distainfulCatalyst]

>Beowulf: have refined the art of shooting any yes-man who offers input other than "yes" or "I worship your genius" to the point of it being an unconscious action.

[Torquemadras Trump]

... Wait so "the ultimate weapon" isn't just an euphemism for cash right?

Yeah, it's the black star-like thingie Beowulf's carrying with him. Also the reason for rampant star-thingie symbolism all over the place.

No doubt about it, the man loves his Ultimate Weapon.

We might get a closer look on that thing soon enough!

Wait, that little thing on his chest?

Is it wrong if I haven't picked up on this in the slightest?

[Wandering One]

Mister Beowulf: Ask for input first. Then explain why the input is wrong. Be the manager.

[Dreamscythes231]

Beowulf:[S??????] Plot your plan in a villain-like manner.

Also:
Yes-men:Try to give a plan,get guillotined,or any action really except for saying your assent to Beowulf's plan.
Discourse demon:Actually give a god suggestion,get killed for it.
Beowulf:Actually think that was a good idea,oh well.

[Godbot]

no one drew Esme so I did

My thought processes, in order, were:

"Hey, that's pretty good!"

"Oh, wait, Seedy drew it. That'd explain it."

Also what's with the chapter title? Of course it's easy being Overlord! You just sit around having money.

[Druplesnubb]

Huh, I thought the ultimate weapon was that demon-summoning gun he had.

Legend of the Hunter - 154



Let the discussion BEGIN!

You initiate a cooperative DEBATERY DISMAY! With the goal to find the perfect solution for your brother problem, you and the demons shall now debate, wielding fierce arguments like the gods did with their titanic hammers, creating true divinity in the process.

But, still, it's a healthy discussion here, so a little bit of a quarrel is bound to happen.



You admit you might not be on EQUAL FOOTING when it comes to that.

Well, then, what're your thoughts on the matter?
Shall we do something about those pesky brothers, looking for my Ultimate Weapon?
Answers, demons. I'm not paying you for silence. Nor for anything else.

Yes, we should absolutely assess the threat that these brothers pose to you. Capital idea, Lord Beowulf!

The demons, naturally, are fast to agree. OF COURSE! After all, you have a naturally convincing personality. Debating rounds like these are important to train your behaviour for future tyranny sessions!

Beowulf:After the meeting,forget the green demon.

Now that we're all agreeing on that,
any ideas on what to do?
How about you, puppet demon?
Sensory demon? Hm? Maybe the creeper demon?
Or... uh... the... was there just...?
Strange. Could've sworn...

Mister Beowulf: Ask for input first. Then explain why the input is wrong. Be the manager.

One of the demons dares to make a suggestion. It can't really talk, being a largely mindless automaton governed by a few basic instructions, but with your SUPERIOR MAGIC ATTUNEMENT, you can pick up a much bigger range of signals from these creatures. The creeper demon seems to suggest that you should spy some more, instead of sending in the big guns right away. Obviously, he fears being sent into battle himself! And in any case, you've already sent the mighty STORM ENGINE to test the waters. Why should you resort to lowly spying now, of all times?!

YOU ARE OFFENDED.



Just so you know, we are offended.
We're afraid such insolence cannot be allowed at this table.
It's a civilized discussion, after all.
You know what that means...



...surprise!

Discourse demon:Actually give a god suggestion,get killed for it.
Beowulf:Actually think that was a good idea,oh well.

HA! Oh man. Look on its FACE. Ha. Man.
Guess he was FLOORED by my words. He.
Fist bump, Jeeves.
I shall participate in a gesture outsiders might interpret as commendation.
Screwing over nigh-mindless killing machines never stops being funny.
Although his idea was actually good. Maybe I should spy some more.
Might be worth it to keep tabs on Lady Naum as well...
I have a feeling she knows more about this whole clusterfuck than she lets on!

>Beowulf: Actually have a spare amount of Yes-men crammed in a closet or something once you killed one of them.

Let's see, that eyeball demon should still be linked to the Ultimate Weapon...
I'll just issue some new orders to him. No problem for my tremendous power!
And, Jeeves, get a new Yes-man to the table.
It feels a little lonely with only three other participants... er... or... two...?
Anyway, get one out of my bootlicker dispenser.
With the most superficial pleasure, Sir.
Now, little eyeball demon, where are you?
Show me the political climate I will unleash a storm in...



Important people might be close by!

Thanks so much! This gets a special place in the HALL OF FANART FAME. One more main character present there!

Wait, that little thing on his chest?

Is it wrong if I haven't picked up on this in the slightest?

Huh, I thought the ultimate weapon was that demon-summoning gun he had.

Actually, that was an oversight on my part - I never explicitly stated that the little thing was the Ultimate Weapon, only implied it. It wasn't a very special reveal, but it was planned for this update. But I THOUGHT I had revealed it already, hence my comment earlier...

Oh well, hope this is only a minor screw-up!


In other news: I'll be absent for the next three to four days, MAYBE fewer, but no promises there... I've got internet access and all, but updating's pretty much impossible in that time.
UNTIL THEN! There's traces of a return to the Thamaton Tree, after all!

[Chaos Waltz]

eye demon> Get noticed by the Jackal.

[Malrone]

Eye> Search the skies.

Edit:
Seb>NOW Run around getting all the information you can from the locals.

[Dreamscythes231]

Eye:Actually be a great spy.Be seen only when-

Shenanigans:Suddenly Happen.
Eyeie.

[Mibbs]

Beowulf: leave that green demon tied up at the table by accident

Jeeves: hold a deep respect for the young mortals ruthless tactics. He may be an idiot but he causes chaos like none other. While never admitting to it of course

[Professor zobot]

>Eye Demon: If you're going to be sneaky about it, get a disguise first. It's a well known fact Nemeans hate sneaky spy eyes. A huge bristly mustache made of cat hair will work pretty well.

>Eye Demon: Track down one of the brothers!

>Beowulf: Consider researching what sort of demon attacked you back in Vigoretto. If you can find out more about it's nature, you should enslave it! You could use another minion or three.

[That Didn't Stop]

>Unnamed Howitzer Priest: Sit next to Sebastian. Fail to recognize him.

[Wessolf27]

>Eye Demon: Encounter Gwydian

Gwydian: Accidentally squash eye demon through drunken hijinks

[Zolen]

Holy crap, awesome work man, took me about 3 days to catch up, this is pretty far along. Keep going strong!

Also,

>Gwydian: Use squashed eye demon as a beer mug! Maybe the cat people will appreciate it as a replacement over actually paying back your tab! Or you could punch them, punching is always fun, it solves all problems!

[Torquemadras Trump]

Aaaaaand back again!

Three to four days absence I said, and four days it were. Oh well.

Updates will resume tomorrow! Stay tuned for all your tiny-demonic-eyeball-spying-needs.

Also, hi Zolen! Nice to know people actually bother to catch up, given how far the comic's advanced! So, yeah, planning on going strong for the near future. ^^

Also, Dreamscythes231, your suggestion is made extra funny when the forum turns ": D" into . I am amused by strange things.

[Wandering One]

>Mr. Teeny Eyeball: Immediately begin shirking your duties, make haste for a local bar please!

>Mr. Gwydian: Still be standing, despite the Lion's Brew, but be so intoxicated that a stiff breeze could knock you out. Have inflicted the "Intox" status ailment on yourself.

>Mr. Sebastian: Be explaining to Esmerelda why you're not disguising yourself with the disguise she's proposing. Be in the unfortunate situation where you have to be polite about it to try and avoid alienating her.

>Miss Esmerelda: Be having fun.

[Professor zobot]

>Miss Esmerelda: Be having fun dressing Sebastian in ridiculous disguises.

FTFY.

Also...

>Gwydian: Be far past the point of intoxication where you usually are, be just about to make a mistake you'll likely regret for the rest of your life.

[Dreamscythes231]

>Miss Esmerelda: Be having fun dressing Sebastian in ridiculous dresses.

FTFY.

FTFY also
Dress:be so frilly and girly that it acts as that no one thinks that Sebastian would wear it,be the perfect disguise.
Esmerelda:Wear a suite,decide to buy gwydian another dress.

Team:Be the crossdress factory.
