Only to be replaced by a new pain as she suddenly feels very solid again, solidly slamming into the solid ground.

Now she is rapidly becoming aware that she is back in the forest with no clothes, no weapons, no bottles of various fluids and that she is laying on a rock.

Any weird mutations or are ya back to human

Get up off the rock. Assess body for injuries and any mutations.

You are likely to be violated in the anus.

Foil their plans!

Cover your anus with your hand.

Also it might be good to find some clothes and not be such a faggot to random people you meet in a strange desert.

You have knowledge, however.

>>426561
The fault is hers? There was no escape from what happened.

>stay out of desert
check.
okay assess where-abouts and if you can find your camp.

>>426566
Apart from asking the camel riding person for mercy, perhaps.

Lucky to be alive there. Note to self, be less suicidal.

Get up and get your bearings.

>>426557
Are your tits back to normal size?
Is Dencha anywhere? Or have you gone back through time?
Have your muscles changed?

>>426566

What about NOT picking a fight with a demon for no reason?

Fuck yes, we have a reset button now.

Lost a sword, but that's okay, there are better weapons with Large Weapon mastery, and now we can be as corrupt as we like.

Regret nothing.

>>426569
> perhaps your punishment will be lessened ever so slightly
Ask a demon for mercy?

>>426557
Looks like we're completely reset with no mutations. No tail, no claws. Are we still STRONG, at least? You probably have that weapon-buffing magic from the book still.

Time to be less overt about things. Also we're totally fucked because there's an actual army of demons out there led by a guy who can fire some sort of matter-destroying laser beam from his eyes.

Hmm. Consider joining the demons? Or we could become an incredibly powerful mage to counter his ability and destroy his army with giant explosions. We sure as fuck aren't gonna do it with martial strength.

I suggest wearing your bedsheets for now. Then go uh... Well, we need more books of arcane knowledge so let's punch imps until we can afford clothes again, go buy some clothes from the creepy merchant, then search the ruins to see if we can find more books.

Back to punching imps for potions and money so we can buy clothes... Maybe explore the lake again.

>>426579

He said that AFTER IORA WAS ALREADY SHIT TALKING HIM. He seemed perfectly amiable when he showed up.

This one's all on the suggestors. That was almost certainly avoidable. If you would like to continue this line of trying to shift the blame away from yourself, we can take it to the discussion thread.

Woot! It is a new game plus.

Also- we now have a proven method for restoring our humanity. There's no reason to not test mutations with abandon now! (I mean, yes, it's brutally painful, but oh well).

Sucks that you appear to have lost your sword, gear, gems, etc. Hopefully you keep your spell, as that was mental.

Iora tries to gain her bearings and get back to her campsite, but the area is not looking familiar and the tiny imps that roam the land seem far more imposing now that her body seems to have reverted back to the point when she first arrived here.

Disguise thyself as a shrubbery

gonna need an army of your own. need to get the drop on an imp to kill it.

Punch trees for wood.

>>426594

OK, joking aside? Grabbing a big stick off the ground isn't a bad idea. Arm yourself with SOMETHING for now, hopefully find some of your stuff where you left it. It's possible this is going to be one of those things where you can head back to where you died and loot all your stuff off your old corpse, but if you left anything behind somewhere safe, check there first.

And really, steering clear of the desert entirely is probably for the best for now.

>>426589
The world rearranges itself.
You need to go exploring to find it again.

>>426589
Shit. We probably lost time, and the demons got stronger. See if you can sneak your way to the lake, where there was shit just lying around that you can eat and gain power from. We need to get stronger FAST.

Sneak, avoid the various imps and other monsters, and search for your camp or any other landmark. However, if you do run across an imp that's alone, and you can get the drop on him, jump that bastard and punch 'em until he coughs up gems.

As horrible as that encounter with the demon king was, it does offer you the benefit of being thought dead by his demonic lordship. You might be able to spin that into something, if you aren't reported back to him.

That asshole must die. Our resurrection is interesting, but we'll have time to muse on that later when we aren't in mortal peril. Sneak around, get your bearings.

Sticks won't do anything verse the demons around... however your fists were good enough for imps the first time so explore and kill them. If you run across something that doesn't go down in a few hits just run.

Iora finds her way back to her camp and puts on her clothes, avoiding any demons along the way.

She then takes a moment to appreciate having a torso. Something she had taken for granted up to this point.

And now she can begin again, hopefully avoiding any horrible dismemberment this time around.

Is Dencha around?
Cuddle with Dencha

Examine the state of your camp. Can you make an estimate as to how long you were dead?

go back to wherever it was you found the sword.

Time for training montage. Hiking, jogging, meditating on the nature of the cosmos, punching imps. All the good stuff.

>>426711

Sound advice. Self-improvement through training! Picking up stuff by the lake means you can sell it in town, too.

And maybe when you visit town you can hear what's up with the desert demon king.

Guts are overrated, I say.

So, The Thing that Should not Be or Eye Of The Tiger?

See if you can find some potions and the like to help you out.

>>426717

the latter is already playing in my head.

DUHNT

DUHNT DUHNT DUHNT

DUHNT DUHNT DUHNT

DUHNT DUHNT DUHHHHHHHHNT

>>426717

Bonus points if training to the eye of the tiger magically gives us a cat eye transformation.

We're not trying to outwit our opponents because this isn't our goal nor our modus operandi. Therefore, we need to outpower them. Eldritch abomination or training? Become a juggernaut by transformation and corruption or through time and dedication? Both are insufficient, in my opinion. That arrogant prick probably has more knowledge about combat, magic, corruption and transformation. What is left? The forgotten, the unknown. We don't know much about the forces that govern this world, let's go after gossips and legends. Legendary items, forgotten gods, unknown powers. I learned this with professional Slayers.

>>426696
Explore the lake to get more horse potions and possibly a replacement sword.
All these transformations are reversible. Sort of. So use any of them to power up and end this threat.

Eat ALL the fruit too.

Man that was some shizniz, we need to eliminate all the evil in the other areas, getting friends and power, then head back to the desert and dick the fuck out of that guy for being such a mean person.

>>426696
Get to the lake, see if the sword is there again (I kinda doubt it), pick up things off the ground and eat/drink it. Uh, the ones we've discovered to be beneficial at least. Once you're decently strong again we can go exploring in the ruins again to find more books.

>>426696
You should, indeed train. But avoid fighting for now. To develop strength and endurance, find rocks. Ones small enough to lift, carry, and throw with some effort. Slog about in waist-deep water. Swim, even. If monsters show up.. practice running.

Until you get a sword again, what was it that gave you the claws? Those wouldn't be a bad thing to have again.

Go to the city, see if they have a gym you can use to PAHMP YOO AHHP.

So, no Dragon Rend Kill or Massive Destructive Kill? Okay, let's hit the gym.

>>426777
Round fruit, iirc. Also reduced her breasts.

Praise the fact that this is the SPIRIT WORLD and you have enough SPIRITUAL FORTITUDE to continue existing here after death.

Then go ask that Ferret if he needs an assistant, or knows where we can get a (Nonsexual) job. We'll need money to afford armor and weapons after we lost our magical sword.

Iora punches a number of imps and gathers a pile of fruit and the ever-present horse potions. Her ability to smash demons in the face slowly returns, but she is still far weaker than she was before her untimely evaporation.

Test if you still retain the ability to mana charge with a makeshift weapon.

Chug some horse potions. Str is good, and a little ponytail never hurt anyone.

Screw the goddamn potions, save them to sell and nothing else. Training and purchase of gear is what we want to do. Get enough money in the forest to buy a better weapon and new armor, then come back to the forest and clear it the hell out.

chug chug chug.

Brute strength is all well and good in the short term, but that isn't going to help against King Laser Blast there. Going to need to work out some way of countering the magic stuff eventually. Or at least start lugging around a huge mirror.

Gorge yourself, though avoid the corrupted items.

Iora needs magic. Magic punches, magic muscles and magic badassery. Make it happen, girls.

I guess that means you have to PUNCH SOME MOAR

Who needs weapons, armour, fruits, potions and all that stuff? They are for chumps! What good they did for you? Punch! Punch until your punches breaks the space-time continuum!

The horse potions sap your smarts and boost your strength, while the round fruit increases your intelligence, so the obvious choice is to consume both in equal amounts until you can punch trees in half by sheer strength.

Gobble down equal numbers of round fruits and horse potions, then jog around the lake over and over to work on running faster. Find Dencha and ask him how long you've been gone, to get an idea if you spent awhile in spirit form.

>>426817

This, and...

>>426820
>>426826

These have a point. Magic defence might be something to look into. Money talks, so let's go to the city and sell off our stuff and hear if there's any experts on it around.

>>426812
Let's take a different route this time. Eat more round fruit than drinking horse potions. Focus on magic instead of strength.

Also let's experiment with bananas to see what they do, before we mutate.

Collect infinite horse potions! Sell them for infinite money! Buy your way to victory!

She needs to buy vitality tinctures and scholar teas.

Bros before minos. search for dencha first.
Then go back to the plan of purifying then consuming anything we have the money for and selling the rest.
... going to the desert city doesn't sound like a good idea, though.

We should consider growing a pair of wings to ease escape. Explore the forest for this purpose.

Iora downs some horse potions, which give her a considerable boost in strength with no mutations, just yet.

But she considers wings. Wings would be useful and seem so much more majestic than turning into a horse. She just has no idea where something that would cause that kind of change could be found.

Seems like the Mountains would be the best place to get wings. That or searching tree tops I guess.

gotta find that lake and the round fruits. claws like you had are ether a dragon or a bird's. another mutation should confirm which.

Before we go anywhere we need a weapon and more to increase our abilities.

Wings will not help you against that arrogant prick. Why wings if you can use magic? Magic that you obtain magically punching magical faces of magical beasts turned into magical demons. I'm serious. You saw that absurd army. You felt in your own flesh the power of that son of an incubator. You need something else. Something far greater.

>>427079
Try that round fruit. It could be dragonfruit! Might be lizards, but there's already an item for that, so hopefully dragons.

Ask in town!

>>427079
If you get wings from a dragon related thing, then we'd probably have to deal with horns and claws and scales too. For something bird related, the other effects could be talons and feathers and a beak.

I think we'll be much better off as a capable human, there has to be more paths to power then turning ourselves into the very things trying to rape and kill us.

Training, safe potions, items and magic. We need to explore all these avenues before turning ourselves into some sex twisted chimera.

>>427089
Or we could train while becoming a twisted chimera.

>>427090
Best option. Run everywhere, carry weights and lets yourself take some hits when fighting imps to toughen the skin. Training intelligence is tough however perhaps you can reflect on the spell you learned.

>>427089
There is literally no reason to stay fully human aside from vanity. There may be specific mutations we'd like to avoid because there are significant tradeoffs (like turning our legs into not-legs) but otherwise we will be stronger and MORE flexible with mutations, especially wings.

The things trying to rape and kill us are CORRUPTED, not just mutated. Avoiding corruption is very easy. Don't drink/eat stuff that our alchemist friend says is "bad", and don't mingle with demons or use fetish objects.

Becoming mutated != becoming sex-twisted.

Eating huge piles of round fruit seems like it's pretty much the way to go. Claws usually go with wings, and they were upping int which generally should be helpful for magic.

THE MARK! YOU STILL HAVE THE MARK RIGHT??

Yes she does >>426557

>>427095
What the hell. Having fetishes is completely normal and healthy!

>>427089
This isn't the major concern. Claws, wings, tails and whatnot are tools, not unlike those produce by species more developed technologically. What if Iora goes out there just killing everyone and blowing things up? I really need to paraphrase Nietzsche? She can't abuse the principle of self-defense, especially when knowingly invading territories of beasts and demons! Not to mention that defeating one by one is unrealistic! Even if she defeats the king, how that prevents the emergence of new leaders? Worse, of more aggressive factions? Unless she becomes the Queen of Demons, of course.

>>427095
>>427105
Fair enough, but let's make some effort so the things we turn into are things we want to turn into. Do research and seek out the most beneficial items. Maybe find some way to control which mutations we get.

I wish we could save reload abuse for desired traits. Oh well.

THE TROUBLE IS TRAINING MIGHT ATTRACT THE ATTENTION OF THAT BIG EVIL DUDE. UNLIKE MOST BIG EVIL DUDES, HE DOESN'T SEEM CONTENT TO WAIT FOR YOU IN HIS CITADEL. I KNOW YOU HAVE THE MARK AND ALL, BUT DOING THIS ALONE IS JUST SETTING YOURSELF UP AS A SINGLE POINT OF FAILURE. YOU NEED TO WARN OTHER PEOPLE ABOUT THIS THREAT AND GET THEM ON YOUR SIDE, GET THEM TRAINING, AND ENGAGE IN A LITTLE GUERILLA WARFARE. IF YOU MUST BE AS INSIGNIFICANT AS A GNAT, REMEMMBER THAT THE MOST DEADLY CHORDATE IN ALL OF RECORDED HISTORY IS THE MOSQUITO.

We should probably see what alliances the desert city has.

>>427079

You need to become a catgirl. More flexibility and good agility are traits you really want if you go against a powerful foe like that

yeah, go to the highest part of the mountain and eat some harpy parts.

You are here to end the demon threat. As long as you do not become corrupted yourself by consuming or using corrupting items, then most anything is fair game in pursuit of that goal.

Wings sounds good, and those round fruits looked like they were transforming you into some kind of bird or dragon, and raising your intelligence to boot, so go around the lake and gather a pile of them to eat. Stop by Dencha if you see him and ask if he has ways to super-concentrate potions or consumables. Perhaps he can squish the essence of dozens of round fruit into one potion.

Too bad. I vote horse

>>427113
Good point.

Head into town. If they haven't heard about him, tell them everything.
inb4 he burned it to the ground

>>427241
Yeah, that's what I meant by going to the town not being a good idea.

It's probably either sieged and surrounded by the formidable army or razed to a smoking puff of stone and filled with corpses and corrupted victims.

Securing a path to dencha felt like an important thing to restore.

Iora finds Dencha and forcefully cuddles him, then asks how long she has been gone. After recovering from the manhandling, he responds that she has been gone roughly a week, or two. Definitely not more than a month, probably.
He is likely not the best source for this kind of information. He tends to get distracted easily.

When he asks why she wanted to know, she tells him that some jackass on a weird horse vaporized most of her body and she died for a while.

>>427501
Dispense sexual favors

Ask Dencha if he would like some "favors"
You just died and now your back!
I mean, effectively your immortal now, but for how long!
Your next death could be permanent!
You almost died a virgin!

hnnng,

anyway, ask what he knows about magics and how much it would cost it make a potion of regeneration so you can grow shit faster then it is blasted off.

Dencha flails and demands to be let down. The little ferret man becomes incredibly agitated.
He tells her that that "jackass on a weird horse" was Paimon, Demon King of the West.

After he has time to calm down, he says that he likely won't come back to deal with you because he won't consider you something worth dealing with personally, but she could have a lot more lesser demons to deal with if she keeps calling attention to herself like that.

He can still fix her potions, but she had better not drag him into anything to nasty...

explain you weren't calling attention to yourself you wer just killing things and he showed up. also ask if there are any other beings near his power lvl.

Dispense sexual favors

>>427506
I wasn't doing anything to call attention to me, I was just hunting down and killing his minions.

> Paimon
Ah. We definitely should ask for names next time.

Anyway, ask Dencha about the political situation.

>>427508
except we had no way to know that.

>>427505
>also ask if there are any other beings near his power lvl.
More generally, information about important people and places. Not that he'll be entirely reliable about the details, but it's all we have for the moment.

Ask if he thinks there's any chance of getting that sword and armor back then.

>>427513
Our sword was in the center of that blast which disintegrated everything. So... probably not.

>>427505

Wait wait wait, wait. Demon King of the West? That implies there are demon kings of the north, south and east. Inquire if there are more.

There's totally going to be a demon king for each of the four directions- desert, forest, mountain, lake. This is going to make finding any safe training location unless we work out an accommodation with at least one of them. Gods dang it.

>>427509

Yeah, ask Dencha about the demon gods. Iora didn't do very much research, and apparently that's the kind of blundering into trouble that got her killed.

And, I don't know, Dencha's been pretty handy. Maybe we can do some non-sexual favors for him to keep him happy? Surely there's something an alchemist of his caliber would want.

>>427517
Iora should unify the demons and become their Queen. Or romance Lulu, if Lulu has already done that.

Apologize to Dencha and explain you were just shaken up by the whole dying thing. You didn't know if you'd see him again.

>>427517
Also ask about other notable demon lords, if there's a demon emperor above the kings, or, dare say, a demon god above that. You want to know how high, or deep, this goes.

>>427518
Perhaps there are alchemy ingredients Dencha wants that are located where it's too dangerous for him to go that you could collect for him? You'd be willing to get them for free if they'd advance his alchemical studies, and keep you in his good graces (and amiable to hugs.)

>>427505
Ask about how to avoid calling attention to yourself. Also about other demon kings.

....is it possible for him to alter the potions? to cleanse them of their animal-metamorphic properties and just for their strength/speed/toughness enhancing capabilities?

Switch from annoying hug to platonic brofist.

Propose being his experimental material provider for a discount on purifying potions.

For the time being, keep training in the forest. Maybe look for the old ruined city if you have time ?

>>427533

The potions are nothing besides animal essences. The stat buffs are side effects of the animal really, not the potion. Humans are sort of bottom tier in this world. As Dencha put it, to remove the animalness from the potions, you may as well just pour them out and use the empty bottle.

>>427547

well is it possible then to suppress the potions cosmetic metamorphic properties? you can drink a lot but won't start to show external transformations until like "Bottle Nr: X" and such.

>>427593
Allow me to summarize: No.

Although certain mutations do require others to happen first, that's just cause-and-effect, not some potential way to delay transformation. Generally the superficial changes happen first, then the major changes like wings or snake lower half or centaur lower half, etc.

(remember guys, mechanics discussion in http://tgchan.org/kusaba/questdis/res/50617.html )

>>427647
Less discussion than questions that I think someone wanted to ask the alchemist and people replying with answers from ingame.

Dencha just needs some supplies from the city, so if she could pick them up while she is there, that would be great.
So she returns to the desert, attempting to make it back without running into any demon armies or death beams.

Iora picks up Dencha's supplies and wanders the streets. She has a little over two hundred coins, she could probably stand to pick up some things for herself while she is here.

We should buy a weapon, and some cheap armor.

>>428012

save your coins until you can afford the lifetime membership to the gym.

Weapon, armor, and information: DEMON KINGS OF THE CARDINAL DIRECTIONS

>>428013

That would be a very good start towards getting back in the swing of things. I assume your old equipment wasn't nice enough to still be lying around where you were vaporized?

>>428013
Seconding this. Get a spiked mace and leather armor.

Search around for a mage or scholar who studies demons and their powers. They might want to hear you recount your encounter with Paimon, and could provide a lead on how to counter, defend, or evade his DEATH RAY.

>>428012
Weapons and armor. Get some spares.. just in case.

You need mobility: studded leather armor and shield.
You need reach: spear and short sword.
You need a bath: followed by an erotic massage.

>>428017

Information is the most valuable thing you can hope to acquire. It is the only possession you retain after death, and probably the most useful in helping you avoid that death in the future. So get learning. Find an information broker. Sign up for a library card. Befriend a scholar. Something. Find a way, just get learning.

Iora considers recovering her armor and sword, but quickly realizes that even if she could find it in the largely featureless desert, it would be missing a large chunk where the whole right side of her body disappeared.

So she visits the armorer and replaces it with some cheaper, lighter gear. It actually covers quiet a bit more area, so by some logic will likely not be nearly as effective. Weapons are actually quite expensive and right now, all she can afford is the equivalent of a heavy stick, but it's cheap and better than nothing.

Now she is ready for anything, or at least, some things.

Find out what relationship the town has with Paimon.

Wow, the town is still standing ? Kinda surprising...

Make sure you get Dencha's supplies and run back to him. Sprinting in sand should be good for that leg strength.

Iora asks around about Paimon and the Demon Kings.
From what she can gather, the Four Kings rule over Hell and now some of them might be checking in of the area being consumed, to see if there is anything they might want to add to their territory. The wards on the walls can keep out small demons, but if something as massive as a Demon King tried to assault the city, there is nothing anyone could do.

Iora wonders how she can do anything about this, since her only apparent special trait is being born with a squiggle line on her chest.

>since her only apparent special trait is being born with a squiggle line on her chest.

Don't forget your apparent inability to die.

>>428220
You also come back from the dead when killed. You should ask around to see if that trait is special.

>>428220
Have casual conversation with cat dude.
Honestly, when was the last time you just hanged out with someone?

>>428220

Maybe you can research yourself. Is their any lore or legends available on how the chosen goes about accomplishing what they're supposed to do? What powers they're supposed to have, or find? There might be tales in this plane that never made it to your home village.

It might also be worth researching resurrection. Is that just something that happens here? Or are you special? Because if you're the only one who can do that, it's a pretty big advantage. Even if you have to start over each time from square one.

Well, I'm out of ideas.

Let's go drinking!

ask who made the wards. perhaps they can help magic you up.

> anything I can do?
PROBABLY NOTHING.

Not without becoming a fuckton levels of stronger, anyway.

That demon king guy looked pretty startlingly non-monstrous, though. Maybe we should try to find out how he got so strong and then blatantly steal that method for our own use.

>>428225

drinking is bad for you. I suggest she go smoke some depressants instead.

>>428221
Yeah, I kinda gotta echo that one. All superpowers considered, auto-rebirth is pretty good.

>>428367
It might only work once. Hey, at least you have god like determination and a willingness to commit murder in self-defense!

Or you could always hop back through the portal, and demand those jackasses back home give you some supplies, since that whole "Intangible Demons You Must Fight Barehanded And Naked" thing was bullshit. The least they could give you would be some coins, or basic survial tools.

>>428227

>>428220
Not enough information! To the library!

>>428374
Yea, screw this. Go find a mage that can reverse the portal long enough for you to go through and kick the fuckin' ass of the village elder, or mayor, or whoever sent you through to fight the Lords of Hell with only the clothes on your back. Do that until they hand over everything they have to aid you.

>>428374
>>428401

You don't really get it at all do you. You just don't see it. The truth is that
they don't want to change this
they don't want a hero
they just want a martyr
a statue to raise

>>428437
The best way to show them is prove them wrong. I want you not to give up. Stay strong. There must be some way to cleanse the corruption of the land. Researching is good, but I don't know how much that will help with the big questions. I feel the best way will be by traveling. By getting firsthand experience and observing the land as it is, we may gain a better understanding of why corruption is so rampant, and how we can fix it.

>>428487
Why should we save them when they stand for nothing? If they deserve life, let them stand for themselves. They'll watch you die to save their lives; they will not stand here by your side.

its also possible that the villagers simply believed in the prophecy, and truly belie we can do this. its not like they could have that much useful gear. normal weapons would not do anything, and i doubt they had enough money to afford anything magical. besides it doesn't really matter does it? weather we are here as a sacrifice or champion we can't let our world die, and its not like we would survive that long if the demons overrun everything.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. We don't see the big picture, much less understand it.

The demon armies are already too strong for anything to fight them, but they can't attack what they don't find.

Maybe concealing our portal, and investigating about other portals, is a better purpose ?

tl;dr: search for lore on transportation spells and devices.

We don't have a portal.

Hang around the lake some more. Clearly something is very wrong here, and you should be able to find out more from there.

Iora considers trying to learn more about everything and is about to wander off to spend several weeks in a library, when a low, resonating thud vibrates through the street, followed by a large crack forming in the masonry. The whole thing looks like it could come down.

Quickly help bystanders get to safety, then hide to see what it is.

Maybe you shouldn't be right here. Go duck into a sheltered alleyway or something.

Well... crap times to run. You are even in worse shape then before you confronted the demon army.

>>428739
Catboy no!

we need to find the leader person. whoever magiced these walls would be the strongest person here. maybe they can enchant you so you aren't blown up in one shot.

We don't have that anymore.

>>428739
Save them. If people look up to you as a hero they'll be more likely to help you.

Assist in the defense of townspeople.

You likely are not strong enough to defeat whatever is doing that. But you can help get people to safety. You can buy time for the guard to arrive. And if necessary, you can go down fighting. You'll revive- there are likely people here who won't. As a champion, and as an apparent immortal, this is your responsibility. Your burden.

Stand against the rising tide of darkness. If the only way to victory is to build a damn of your own dead bodies, so be it.

Iora ushers the people out of the way as the wall crumbles, sending clouds of dust billowing out into the street.
A colossal form lumbers through the cloud of sand, emitting a reverberating growl. Whatever it is, it is very large.

I doubt you can defeat it but lets at least try. Charge your weapon with sparks and should you get low on health run!

Well, you can't kill it, unless it has some kind of disproportionate weakness we're lucky enough to discover.

Can you irritate it some way (stabbings), get it's attention, and draw it after you into the desert? Just get it out of town. Then escape or die.

>>428758
There are guards in the city. Fall back, team up with them, and launch a coordinated counterassault.

Distract it. Buy time for residents to flee. They are likely to be killed by other demons, but you can't do anything against that.

>>428758
In the immortal words of Theoden, "RETREAT! BACK TO THE KEEP!" Withdraw to a guard barracks, or a wizard tower, or an alchemist's, or the home of an insomniac who just got to sleep an hour ago and is very upset. Somewhere defensible, with like fifty dudes to back you up. Attack that thing like this will just end in SPECTACULAR failure.

As the demon hulk begins to come into view, Iora falls back and tries to find the city guard, rather than fight the monster alone.
She has the civilians evacuate the area and runs off to find someone better equipped to face something like that.

>>428778
Take your pants off and wiggle your bum at it. Always works.

>>428778
Welp. I want to just say run and hide, but on the off chance that this thing is after you specifically you'll want to lead it away from people and out of town. Hopefully it isn't. With any luck it'll be slow enough to run from either way.

Dammit Urta, you better not to be passed out drunk. We need you to show up and single-handedly kick this thing's ass.

>>428778
Seriously got to find the guard. That thing is huge; they must have some kind of usual way of handling shit like this.

>>428792
Well, bugger this. Let's just bugger off back through the portal and have them redirect a river or a magma flow or something back through it.

Elsewise, run to the local center of authority. They'll have the most badass guards, and therefore be less likely for you to die horribly around.

Climb up the back of its leg, stab it behind the knee, make your way up its back from there, and jab at its vital bits! It's how all the cool kids fight giant demons these days!

Run back to the armory and kindly ask to borrow a much better weapon, and maybe armor, to fight this thing. If, in the highly unlikely chance you defeat it, consider that payment for the weapon and armor. If you don't, well, it's not like the blacksmith could carry his whole stock while escaping anyway, so no big loss.

go up a building and get on it's head then stab it in the eyes. dodge any atatcks it makes while you are up there, it will clonk itself.

>>428778
I didn't ask for this!

Well, try to find others who can help fight this thing. If everyone wusses out, man up... and run the fuck away.

Stab it in the gonads!

>>428858
become the CANDIRU!

It has some intelligence? Try talking to it. Anyway, try to draw its attention and run. If possible, take it away from the city.

Yep, it's scarpering time.

Dang. We could use some firepower here.

it's a hollow! quick, unleash your shikai!

I think this is more of a Bankai situation.

Iora tries to find the town guard as swarms of imps burst into the breach in the wall. She finds a lizard guard fighting off demons while civilians flee. She asks if she can help, to which he replies that she can either defend the townsfolk as they fall back or engage the demons to buy them time.
If she can think of any better ideas, go for it.

Help with the imps. The behemoth will be someone elses problem.

defend townsfolk

buying them time is worthless if you can't make sure there safe

>>429994
Defend the townsfolk. You're recovering from a recent bout of death and not up to full horse strength, so you should take a more defensive role.

Also, if that jerkwad shows up you want to have the first blast be not at you.

Defend

>>429994
Defend the townsfolk

Defend the townsfolk, but check if you can get your hands on some temporarily borrowable equipment upgrades and medicine/first aid kits on the way before getting too deep in fights.

Just in case adam smith doesn't hate your guts in these parts and shopkeepers actually help you to save them.

Defend the townsfolk while they fall back... but if they don't have an escape plan, you're all screwed, figuratively and literally.

>>430003
Definitely keep an eye out for any loose weapons you can snatch up, even if they are technically in a shop. Useful items as well. Really, it's not stealing if it's an emergency and it's to aid others.

>>430011

Yeah, it's the Jakie Chan exception in the rules of improvised fighting. You're totally allowed to grab anything to fight with if it serves a greater good.

Assuming you and the shopkeeper survive, you could always return it later.

Actually, in this case we might want to be less cautions if it will do any good. It seems that we can come back from the dead while these guys can't.

>>430366
Yeah, even if it's unpleasant, and economically inefficient, having free resurrection could be the key to success.

If you want to beat the bad guys, you'll need allies, and this city is full of them, so don't fear and fight, you have more to win than to lose.

Iora helps the people escape, fighting off the attacking demons. The behemoth is hampered by the tightly packed buildings, but larger beasts are starting to filter in from outside, like minotaurs.
The brute swings at her, attempting to cut her neatly in half and nearly succeeds.

>>430674
Go for the eyes, Iora! The eyes!

Charge up your weapon for this fight. Work on disabling \ crippling blows.

I wish you had the beuatiful sword right now.

shatter the haft of the axe.

Clearly you should climb on top of him and ride him until he gets tired.

...Yeah, you're clearly not going to do jack against a minotaur while only armed with what's barely a club. Hit that imp at the corner in the nuts, and run for it with the rest of the townsfolk.

>>430687

Oh she can do jack around a Minotaur
jack him off that is

>>430685

This! Show him your excellent riding skills!

Run.

Do not engage the minotaur as it is far stronger than you and you don't have a real weapon. Try to lure it away from the civilians.

roll between its legs and jack it off. then kill it.

>>430674
You won't beat that monster by yourself, so lure it away from the civilians, and try to get some guards to help you. A 1vs1 is a bad idea, but teamwork will do the trick.

Encountering a minotaur, at low level ?

... Quickly make a delicious sandvich.

Check to see if there are any team fortress guys around to save you.

>>430674
This is bad. We're outclassed in almost every way, and certainly in terms of sheer strength, by a monster that large. Well, unless we go for stabbing it in the soft spots - eyes, nostrils, roof of mouth.

Anyway, we should focus on feints and evasive maneuvers for a little while longer, maybe battering the imps on the side, making absolutely sure the civvies escape. When that's over with, if you still haven't found something better than a non-magical stick by that point, sprint your way to the weapon shop and borrow a real weapon.

Hey lets try to lure the minotaur over to the giant demon and get it crushed.

Iora attempts to evade the minotaur's attacks and weaken it with carefully placed strikes only to be thrown to the ground. The minotaur tears her top off in the process, leaving her firm, bouncy breasts exposed.
Oh my.

Run while taunting the minotaur about the relative smallness of its cock. Lure it under the giant assfuck demon's feet.

If that fails, submit and become a minotaur cumaddict fucktoy.

Protip: Don't fail.

Yup, time to run, the minotaurs out of your league right now.

On a scale of one to ten how horny are you right now? This is legit question, you may get in serious danger of going "must have sex" and then you get pregnant with minotuar babe.

>>433126
Oh, yeah. Then you get addicted to minotaur cum. Scale should be from 1-100 for maximum accuracy.

>>433098
FLEE, NOW.

No, seriously, while you will respawn if you're killed, nothing good can come of getting caught in the middle of an assault. Being brave is good, but now it's time to bid your time and GET THE HELL OUT OF TOWN.

"I've seen bigger on an imp!" Then leg it out of there. Don't look back for even a second, lest you trip.

pretend to suck him off but then bite 'em off.

Ok ok what you do is RUN NOW. But if you does grab you try to jerk him off, suck him off, whatever. Make him finish before your innards get stretched out something terrible.

Kick it inna balls.

Then flee.

find a needle like stone and pretend to go along with it then jam the stone into his urethra

Run. Just run.

>running
>from a minotaur
dude what

We need to stun him first. A blow to the balls would work.

Since when minotaurs are faster than humans?

>>433256

since when are they slower?

Minotaurs are fast when they charge. Just don't run straight.

>>433265
If the minotaur does charge, lead him up one edge of the street, then jink to the side when he gets close. He'll have a harder time than you slowing down and changing direction. Even better would be to dodge through a narrow alley or building that's too small for him to fit through.

In any event, tearing a studded leather armor with bare hands and without hurting the person who is wearing it is bullshit. Furthermore, attempting to rape someone during combat, especially when you can be attacked by others, is a terrible and stupid idea.

>>433261
Exactly, Iora is good at running. Minotaurs have a greater range of attack, trying to get close isn't feasible and trying to trick it may fail miserably. In short, learn to choose your fights.

>>433265
Iora doesn't have the luxury of testing this. They are in a city, however. There are many obstacles that she can use in her favor, especially against creatures with hooves.

>>433294
We already know that this world has very different rules, like armor covering less, but protecting more. Why would this situation be any different?

>>433303

>> different rules, like armor covering less, but protecting more

Wait, he just tore your top off. Now you're invincible!

Do you still have your stick on hand? Losing it wasn't mentioned at all so you obviously do.

Okay, what I need you to do is rally your strength for one last attack when he gets close to you. You're going to take the stick, held in both hands, and jam it down the minotaur's urethra, then lever it to one side as hard as you can. The urethra looks wide enough that this should be possible. Hopefully it incapacitates him long enough for you to pick up his axe and finish him off. And hey, free axe!

>>433098
Dear lord where was it hiding that last scene?
The horse imp showed us demons have bulletproof dicks. Don't bother with crotch-attacks unless you're trying to push that damn thing out of the way.

On a scale of 1 to you're gonna get raped, you're gonna get raped.

So just stick your ass up and wait patiently.

>>433448
Probably too heavy for us right now. Or too big to be wielded.

Running towards a weapon shop would be a good idea. Or any place where we can regroup with the town forces.
Keep your eyes peeled for other problems in the meantime.

The minotaur falls on Iora's prone form and forcefully plunges it's broad-tipped shaft deep inside her, jarring her body as it thrusts into her. She tries to ignore the pain to fight of the beast, but finds that the sensation she is experiencing is more like pleasure.
Her mind is clouded by the intensity of it all and she is paralyzed by the repeated orgasms that ripple through her body as the great brute spills it's hot seed into her belly.

> pleasure
I'm out.

>>433894

Well let's put it this way - it's a small price to pay for saving your life. Your ass. When he's done it's best to fuck off somewhere safe.

Welp, that narrows our list of potential achievements somewhat for this play-though.

Well shit. Time to run limp away when you can and see if you can keep helping civilians get away.

hobble away. if you are lucky, that will also get fixed if you die again.

That or wake up in a few hours missing 3-8 gems.

Crawl over into cover, rest until you can walk again, and sneak away to hide until the demon army passes, then leave. Though, you probably won't get the chance to do that, 'cause there are imps and other things that'll want to have a go at you, but try anyway.

Oh, and try not to think that you may now be pregnant with minotaur spawn, and how big that baby would be.

Activate vagina dentata. Bite it off; defeat minotaur.

Yeah, actually, you should probably focus on getting yourself out of here before you end up in some demonic gangbang situation.

Do you... want to end up in some demonic gangbang situation?

wake up about 8 hours later missing a handful of gems

>>433894
Pray the local alchemist has the morning-after pill.

>>433983

Honestly birthing twisted cow man spawn isn't the biggest worry so much as getting hooked on minotaur cum. You can always expidiate the pregnancy with egg potions anyway. Oh god what is this adventure I'm 3

>>433983
I think the local alchemist is going to be too busy either running away, being gang raped, or being dead. Though, Iora should talk to Dencha about that, once she gets away... If she gets away.

...Aw, dangit. Just realized Iora lost the stuff Dencha sent her to fetch. Not a big deal, considering. He'll probably understand it was due to circumstances.

you shoulda gone for the balls.

welp, nothing to do than make the best of it and enjoy the act

SLIT ITS THROAT
DRINK ITS BLOOD
EAT ITS HEART
GAIN ITS STRENGTH

When it's over cry some bitter tears. Not particularly over the act itself, but over the shame of being twisted enough to enjoy it. Either way you have a dog rape dog world out there. Next time you better make sure you strike first and have the upper hand.

Why am I not surprised that you guys know absolutely nothing about rape.

>>434220
> Not particularly over the act itself, but over the shame of being twisted enough to enjoy it.
You know that enjoying the act actually make it worse? Sometimes you just can't control your body, and this is terribly awful about something that is against your will. Be more sensitive, stop putting the blame on the victim.

Hmm.

Get abducted back to their base.
You're totally worth it.

>>434230
For parts:
1: You're perfectly right about what you say about rape, it's that bad, and most of the time it shouldn't be underestimated the effect on the victims.

2: This is a quest based in corruption of champions, where rape is the same as saying hello, it never has any real consequences, and no one makes a big deal out of it, so expect same reactions here.

And my answer to this rape... BITE THE FUCKER'S NECK OFF, LET HIM DROWN IN HIS OWN BLOOD AND THEN START SLAUGHTERING THE FOOLS FOR DARING LAY THEIR FILTHY PAWS ON YOU.

And then, covered in your victim's blood, show them true terror.

>>434256
>>never has any real consequences

I see someone is looking to get a Bad End.

>>434230

>Sometimes you just can't control your body, and this is terribly awful about something that is against your will. Be more sensitive, stop putting the blame on the victim.

That statement has fuck-all to do with putting blame on the victim, and is actually perfectly in line with what you said while proselytizing to the guy who said it.

Keep that shit on tumblr.

That's one long rape session right there. You're gonna be sore for weeks.
