Summary

Chapter 1:  Fighting Demons [Excerpt]

Demons.  I’m surrounded by demons.  To my left, soul-draining succubi shoot balls of magic, to the right stand acid-flinging Cerberuses, and straight ahead, gigantic, fire-breathing balrogs lurk ominously.  First I charge the succubi, killing them quickly with a barrage of Level 20 fireballs.  Next, I take the Cerberuses using the same technique.  The balrogs, however, are immune to fire.  I push F4 to change my spell to chain lightning and electrocute the spawns of Satan.  Now, on to Lazarus, the teleporting super demon.  I’ll get him though, for I can teleport too!
