The Empire Strikes Back - unbetaed
Added 2024-08-05 06:25:50 +0000 UTCOkay, here is the chapter 29 of an Impractical Guide to Godhood, unbetaed, The Empire Strikes Back.
Fair warning: this chapter gets really, really dark, real fast, and then it gets darker.
Commodus is particularly evil...and well, he is a very unpleasant individual.
So yes, considers everyone warned.
Otherwise all the caveats about madness and outrageous betrayals apply.
May the Suicide Squad have mercy, for the Gods won't...

Not sure if it has been brought up... but from a 'Story' perspective would not having 'charmsong' to lure in the Huntress also have created a grain of sand in the gears of Commodus' plan.

2024-08-14 11:57:55 +0000 UTCTo be honest, the ex-Huntresses and the other girls can't exactly kill him in his sleep, unlike practically every other 'normal' slave in history. His greatest mistake, to be honest, was likely more to piss off Perseus and the Suicide Squad, and not be able to finish the job here and there. Now they know Commodus' plan, first step always worked, but there are many other steps waiting... As for the Sire of Drakons, what he searched for had nothing to do with numbers, I'm afraid.

2024-08-10 06:58:35 +0000 UTCI forget nothing, bwahahaha! Many characters of canon happen in due time, I just need good opportunities to introduce them.

2024-08-10 06:58:21 +0000 UTCCommodus I had such HIGH HOPES, you have betrayed me! Now die like all the fools before you when your slaves backstab you. Idiot is not even keeping them in cages under guard. I think the Sire main goal was pissing off the moon goddesses. She could easily be baited to do something epically stupid or should I say more stupid? While I suspect there is a hidden ritual of Sire in this mess that needs at least a certain number of cat girls and my gut says that number has already been reached. Now every hunteress caught in this trap is now a nice bonus. In the unlikely event Commodus won his game and challenges the god I see him losing being turned into a monster(I mean the masses will be calling him one with this stunt) with his pride coming back as servants for SIre. PS: Be Careful when you curse someone never know if you will hit unintended targets...

2024-08-06 19:09:55 +0000 UTCGood chapter, and the most delectable irony would be Commodus dying in a funny way (like a prey being hunted by a pride)

2024-08-05 21:25:06 +0000 UTCI really want Commodus to die screaming now. The Triumvirate (in this story at least) you can respect for some of their standards, both emperors we've seen so far have been utterly devoted to their partners for example, but Commodus. You have successfully created a near-Umbridge level Hate sink.
