Overlord: Darker Legends

by PirateRaider

This is how Dark Legends should have been. A much darker, more gruesome story of blood, death, gore, rape and suffering, where the Overlord cuts a path of bloody destruction, amasses a harem and steals piles of treasure on his path to the top. Rated M for lemons, blood and death, you're been warned.

Chapter 2: Skull Canyon.

.

.

With the war against the halflings won, there was a lot of stuff to do. They needed to clear out and burn all the dead bodies. They needed to clean up all the blood and guts before they all got sick. They needed to do serious repairs to the castle, as not only was it already in terrible shape, parts of it had crumbled in the fire. And they needed to get all the loot from their fallen enemies. It was a lot of work to do, and to make matters worse, the surviving members of the castle's staff had stolen whatever they could carry and fled during the battle. And what they could carry happened to include the castle's last smelter.

The only servant left was the chef, Rollick. Luckily the Overlord had taken in all the girls the halflings kept as slaves. And then he put them to work as his slaves. But it wasn't just the girls who were working, Valgaav gathered more life force from the giant bugs and created more minions that were quickly put to work. Because he was now the Overlord and in full control of the castle, Valgaav was able to create 70 minions stationed there. Most of them were a work force, cleaning and repairing the castle, the rest were guards preventing anyone from escaping or slacking off, and also keeping a lookout for all potential incoming threats.

They also had to lock up the busty halfling girl, who they learned was named Pumpkin. An odd name but given her orange hair and pumpkin-sized tits, it kinda fit her. They couldn't force her to work, as she would just slow them down, and not watching her would give her a chance to escape. So they shoved her naked into a glass case that was too small for her. The results were her bare breasts were squished hard against the glass door, her fine ass was squished hard against the glass case, and she couldn't move a muscle.

The first and most important thing they had to do was dispose of the bodies and clean up all the blood and guts. After all, every minute they spent with that mess increased the chances of catching and spreading diseases. A bonfire was made to burn the bodies using the smashed up contents of his family's rooms.

With everything safely underway, Overlord Valgaav went to bed. He'd had a long, hard day and needed to rest. Leia and Luna joined him, but chose to hold off on the sex until he woke up. Because while he more than earned all the sex he could handle, he also earned some sleep, and the latter was needed first. And when he did wake up, it'd be to reverse gang bang, as several of the new girls wanted to thank him properly.

.

The next day, he woke up to the sight of Luna's bare breasts, mere inches from his face. He looked up to see her smiling face, then he gave her tits a squeeze as he pulled her into an embrace. She eagerly returned his embrace, got on top of him and began riding his giant dick. After a while he shot his load into her and she slumped down. Then Leia moved her off and took over. She had intense sex with him and tried to milk his rod of his cum. Once she had all she could take, she collapsed and slid off. For a moment he thought that was it, then he noticed they weren't alone. Six of the sexy beauties he claimed from the halflings were standing there, clad only in see-through robes.

"Oh Master."

"We wanted to thank you properly for saving us. And our bodies were the best thing we could offer."

"So please, have your way with us."

The six of them had noticeably different heights, hairstyles, ages, and measurements, but what they all had in common was they were beautiful with great tits and fine asses. Girls that any man would want to fuck. They let their robes fall to the floor, revealing their nudity in full. Then they struck some poses to entice him. It worked and he beckoned them over.

Valgaav had sex with all of them, one after another. Their pussies were reformed to the shape of his cock, their breasts were manhandled, and their wombs were filled with his seed. The last three only agreed to join in in the first place because they thought he'd be exhausted from the other girls before it was their turn, and he'd then settle for seeing them naked and maybe feeling up their tits and pussies. They were wrong. He not only had enough energy to finish all the girls before them, he was also able to fuck those three until they passed out. Ironically they were quite happy as even though things went against what they were originally hoping for, they'd gotten so turned on watching his giant cock fuck those other girls and seeing their bodies and faces react as they lost themselves in sexual pleasure, that they couldn't help throwing their naked bodies onto his and indulging in their growing sexual desires.

.

After hours of wild sex with eight girls, the Overlord started his day. He enjoyed a large breakfast comprised of the food he'd stolen from the halflings. As he ate he wondered about something. So he asked a nearby girl.

"I'm kinda curious. I just fucked a bunch of you former halfling slaves, and it felt like none of them had much experience. Hell, one of them was still a virgin. What's up with that? Are halfling dicks so small and lame that they couldn't even break her barrier? Or did they have trouble getting it up? Or is it only the favourites that get laid?"

"If we catered to their desires for food, we were far less likely to be used for sexual desires. Some of us have been raped a few times, but not all. And as for their dicks, halflings are tiny people, and their dicks are about as big as they can be for guys that small. So yeah, they won't be stretching out too many human pussies."

"Fair enough."

"By the way my lord. What's with your voice?"

"A few months back my vocal cords got torn up in an incident. I healed up completely, but my voice was changed. I like it though."

"Yeah. It sounds incredible."

He let out a bit of a laugh.

Suddenly her expression changed to look a bit crazier. He recognized it as the expression of a girl that was starved for gossip and had stumbled upon an extremely juicy piece of it. Either that or of a horny lesbian who wanted to rape the girls while they were helpless.

"Also, which girls did you have sex with?"

He didn't mind as it was no secret that he was sexually active, and word spreading that he could fuck an entire harem's worth of girls into unconsciousness might further increase his reputation.

"They're still passed out in my room if you want to see them."

She took off. And once he was finished eating, he checked out the Trophy Room. It now held some new things in its once empty stands. One stand was now full of Halflings. There was a scout, a swordsman, a spearman, a rocklobber, and one with a shield. Another stand had Jinks riding his 'Contraption of Doom.' There was also a giant rat and a giant beetle. Each of them had a plaque with descriptions of them and their defeat at the hands of Overlord Valgaav. He was happy about that. There was also a couple treasures on display that he'd gotten from the halflings. They too had descriptive plaques, and one of them had some history behind it. The place was still mostly empty, but it was a start.

.

Then Valgaav decided to test out his new spell and figure out what it does. After summoning the power and holding it for a moment, he felt he understood what it did. But the powers were fluid, so he had to test it to be sure. He headed straight to the girl in the glass case. Pumpkin had been suffocating in there all night, and was willing to do whatever and whoever it took to get out. He opened it and she fell out, gasping for breath.

"Please, I'll do anything. Just don't put me back in there," she cried.

"Yes you will," he replied. Then he picked her up and carried her off. He held her using only his left arm, and kept a grip on her right tit.

He took her to his room and dropped her on the bed. Then he disrobed, revealing his muscular body and monstrous cock. He positioned himself over her and started tit-fucking her. She complied as best as she could, using her hands, tits and mouth to pleasure him as much as possible. After several minutes he shot his load onto her. She swallowed as much as she could, but she ended up wearing most of it. Then he started fingering her pussy.

"Wait, you're too big! That'll kill me!"

He then used his new spell. Lightning-like energy exited his hand and entered her vagina as she screamed. As far as she could tell, all it did was cause pain and he was doing that to punish her. Then he pressed his cock against her entrance, prodded it for a moment, then slid into it. She cried out as he broke her barrier and stretched out her pussy. The size difference between them coupled with Valgaav's abnormally large cock meant that while his dick was inside her it looked like she was pregnant, and he ruined her insides with every thrust. Not even her mind could stay in tact as he fucked her brains out. The whole time she thought she was going to die, but she was loving it more and more. When he finally shot his load into her, it stretched her out to the point that it looked like she was overdue to give birth, and he didn't know if it was at that point she was knocked out or if it was a while before that.

The test was successful and he was right. The spell had the power to manipulate others in many ways. It didn't work on anyone with the strength or will to resist it, but on those who were defeated, or had no will to resist, it could do many things. He could use it to make the slaves loyal, or to change their forms to suit his needs. For example, Pumpkin could now handle getting violently violated by his giant dick without dying. Albeit just barely. Her body wasn't ripped apart by his dick, and instead stretched like rubber to accommodate his large size, then returned to normal afterwards. Her body suffered no actual damage, but she felt everything in full force and believed that would be the end of her.

Then he used the spell again. This time on her mind, altering it to suit what he wanted. He didn't turn her into a mindless doll, but he did make her loyal, dedicated, unwilling to leave, and mentally unable to betray him. Other than that she was still the same. Then he started going around, doing the same thing to all the slave girls in the castle, to remove any potential betrayals in the future. A couple resisted it at first, but he solved that by knocking them unconscious and trying again.

.

The minions searched every room in the castle and found more than they'd thought. The very servants that had been complaining about the current lack of money had been looting the place for years. They took far more than they were able to spend without blowing their cover, and even though they took everything they could carry when they fled, the amount of gold left behind totalled up to a fortune. Although honestly the Overlord wasn't at all surprised. The door to the treasury was broken, and the room could be accessed by going through the dungeons, which were left unguarded. They also found two minion relics that let him summon more minions and some exotic jewellery and masks from the trophy room. And the dungeon had more than bugs, rats, and bodies. There were several stashes of gold and a Blood relic, which extended his health.

"With this we should have more than enough to start repairs on the castle," said Gnarl. "But we'll need a crane. And we'll soon need to retrieve our smelter. And get access to the town."

"Gnarl, why is it that despite getting two minion relics, I can only control 5 more minions?"

"I'm sorry Sire, but 2 and a half each is all they provide."

"That's not enough. We'll have to look into increasing that number. It has to be far more than that."

"Agreed master. But we won't be able to do that until the castle's up and running."

.

The Overlord then talked to Rollick.

"Good news lord! I finished my study of the plants. I figured out exactly how to wipe out the plants that have been killing the crops, and make the land farmable. If you destroy all the rotten crops, that'll help stop the spread. If you then chop off the tops of those things and set the insides on fire, it should destroy all traces of them, including their underground roots. That should lead to your fields recovering and becoming healthy. That, combined with the halflings being wiped out should bring the causes of our famine to an end."

"Wonderful. I'll handle that myself. By the way, I picked up the blueprints for Jinks's machine that fires pumpkins. If you can think up anything you can do with it, you can add them to your book."

Rollick's face lit up.

"Really?"

"Of course. There's a whole lot of bad ideas in there that are better off gone for good. Like those pumpkin shoes you're wearing."

Rollick was the celebrated author of '1001 Things to do with a Pumpkin.' And to fill out that number, Rollick was forced to include some of the worst pumpkin related ideas ever. And to deter people from calling him a hypocrite, he used all of them several times and even continued to wear pumpkins on his feet. Replacing those terrible ideas and getting out of those pumpkin shoes and into a nice pair of actual boots sounded great.

Of course the Overlord had better ideas for it. By replacing the pumpkins with proper ammo, the pumpkin launcher could become a powerful weapon to defend the castle or crush his enemies. But for that to work he'd need some new plans for it, so giving the designs to Rollick would benefit them both. Of course he could wait until after Rollick's excitement died down before telling him.

Speaking of powerful weapons, he still needed to get those catapults to the castle. So, Overlord Valgaav summoned his minions and went on his way. He told his minions to make sure none of the girls escaped or slacked off while he was gone. The catapults were still broken and needed strong ropes or chains to fix them, but they'd be easy to fix. Once they were inside the castle walls, he left to hunt down the traitors who robbed from him and ran off.

Along the way he searched out and destroyed every last one of those wretched plants. They were shaped like giant penises with root-like branches sticking out, were covered in slimy moisture, and smelled like a mixture of piss and wet dog. They were completely disgusting. He destroyed everything in the farmlands to wipe them out, but it was well worth it. And when he lit their insides on fire, they squirmed like crazy until they died.

"I'll have to reward Rollick for his work. And his loyalty."

The Overlord then continued on his way and reached the fork in the path. This time he took the path that was blocked by the fallen pillar. He had the minions move it out of the way and they continued to the next area. This one was mainly farms, but unlike the ones he just passed through, these ones were much healthier and could supply them with food that was safe to eat. The only problem was, all the farmers abandoned the farms and ran for their lives when the bandits and halflings moved in. It also marked the edge of his lands, as his father had already lost everything else.

As he made his way to the town of Meadowsweet, he picked up a mana relic, which let him cast more spells. When he made it to the town gates, he saw them closed and a couple of stupid-looking men standing guard.

"Who the heck is dat guy?"

"I never seen 'im before."

"Who are you?"

"Valgaav Gromgard. The new Overlord."

"Da young lord? Your family's caused us nuttin but trouble!"

"I'll tell ya what. You get rid of dose bandits, and we'll open da gate and let ya in."

Overlord Valgaav was shocked by this.

"Are fucking kidding me?! What kind of retard would risk his life and that of his allies, taking on an army of bandits, when the only payment is a couple of retarded shits open a fucking door?! If you wanna get rid of them without paying anyone anything, then get off your lazy asses and do it yourselves!"

Then someone else came to the wall. A middle-aged woman who looked good for her age. She shoved the two men to the side and spoke up.

"And what would you like? What payment would justify doing such a task?"

"Full control over this town, all the money in the town coffers, and I keep all the loot the bandits have. And I don't wanna hear any complaints about family heirlooms or anything like that. If they were important, you should've protected them."

They were shocked at that.

"That price is insane!"

"I'll return in an hour. If you haven't agreed to my price by then, it'll go up. If you flat-out refuse, I can always wait until after they tear this gate down and raid the town."

He then left via a nearby Waypoint Gate. He returned to the castle and learned that all the blood and guts in the castle had been cleaned up, and all the bodies were piled in a hole that was still burning. So he sent a bunch of slave girls and minions to the storehouse to clean up all the blood, guts, bile, and corpses there. And Gnarl complimented him on how he dealt with the townsfolk.

"Congratulations Master, you handled those fools like a true overlord. I can't believe they thought you'd go into battle for them without any promise of reward. Did they think you were a hero or something? Fools. Now they'll have to pay a hefty price for your help."

"Indeed. And if they don't act fast, they price will go up."

"But what if they refuse? Or betray you? We still need access to the town."

"The bandits are bound to try tearing down that gate and attacking the town before too long. So even if they refuse, I'll still get access after a while. And I can wait until the town's ravaged and the people are begging for mercy before doing anything about them. And if I do this and they refuse to hold up their end, I got two catapults ready to turn their entire town to rubble."

.

A short while later he was back at the Meadowsweet town gate.

"So, have you decided to agree to my price?" the Overlord called out.

"Yes! But only if you wipe out all of them and make the farms safe again."

"You have a deal."

With that settled, he was on his way. He went straight to where the bandits were based. Skull Canyon. Not the most imaginative name, but he liked it. A ways in he found a well-guarded drawbridge and a few men in black clothes, carrying long, sharp swords. At the drawbridge there was a pair of banners with an emblem of a black flame.

"The Black Flame Bandits. I haven't seen that insignia in years. I thought they were all wiped out," said Gnarl.

"They were. These guys are probably just some fanboys who wanted to use the name to take advantage of the originals' reputation," Valgaav replied.

"Don't underestimate them Master. These new guys could be more dangerous than the old ones."

It turned out these guys were skilled and deadly warriors and their swords could easily slice through an unarmoured minion. But they were no match for a group of minions attacking all at once. The minions slaughtered them and got new weapons and clothes.

Then a female bandit attacked out of nowhere. She was tall, busty, fit, and completely covered in black cloths with only her eyes exposed. She jumped in, knocked down the minions with a wooden pole, and then attacked the Overlord by knocking his axe out of his hands and hitting him with a series of strikes. But he stood strong and after several hits, he grabbed her stick and broke it in half with one punch. Then he delivered a kick to her stomach and sent her crashing into the rock wall. She fell and as she struggled to get up, he picked her up, spun her around and tossed her over 20 feet before she hit the other rock wall and ricocheted into the ground. He was hoping that would kill her, but she got back up and made a run for it.

A minute or two later the Overlord then found a new spell. This one was shaped like an hourglass. He had the minions take it back to the castle.

"Ah, the Slow spell. This spell slows enemies down, giving you more time to make them very dead. And it can be used on wide areas and small armies, not just individuals."

The drawbridge was up and the way to lower it was on the other side. Luckily there was a narrow path that the minions could take to access the wheel and lower the bridge. But with knife and axe-throwing bandits in position on the other side, they had to take them out with the Reds. The bandits were soon being burned alive. The only two they couldn't take out were the ones guarding the wheel. So the minions had to turn it while being attacked. But they managed to pull it off and the Overlord made it across to deal with the bandits on the other side.

They cut a path of destruction as they made their way through the canyon. There was a gauntlet-like path full of traps where bandits were positioned above to attack anyone who ran through, and there was barrier at the end. But rather than going through that, he decided to clear the area. He found and tore down a poorly disguised barrier that hid the path that the bandits were on. He had his minions charge in and they brutally slaughtered every last one of them in a mess of blood and burning flesh. Then they had to go back and take the lower path, disabling all the traps along the way. At the end there was a spiked barrier that looked sturdy and nasty.

"That barrier can probably do more damage to you than you can to it. Throttle a minion at it and blow it up."

The minion seemed oddly happy about being strangled and then blown up, but he went out a bang that reduced that barrier to splinters. That trick could be useful in the future.

As soon as they made it past the barrier, the female bandit from before attacked. She now brandished a sword, her face and long black hair were exposed, and her shirt was ripped, exposing the valley of her breasts. She'd been lying in wait and was hoping to take his head off by catching him off guard. It didn't work as he saw it coming and blocked the strike with his axe. Then one shove sent her tumbling away. She regained her footing and tried again. This time they both swung their weapons hard. Axe met sword and when they hit, the sword broke and the bandit girl was sent flying back. Rather than stick around to get killed, she took off at a speed the Overlord couldn't keep up with and was able to lose him quickly.

Soon they found a field full of sheep. All of which were harvested for their life force. After that they continued until they entered a clearing. In the middle of it there was a shack, on each side there was a tent near him that served as an entrance to a cave that housed the bandits, as well as another one further away, there was a large shed on the other end, and there were several bandits wandering about.

"Sire, you must destroy those quickly or you'll be overrun by the bandits. There's no limit to how many can come pouring out of there!"

He tried to move silently so he could catch them off guard and do some damage before they noticed him. It didn't work as one bandit spotted him and alerted the rest. He swept his minions into the tent on the left and they killed two bandits as they tore it down. Then they rushed over to the one that was on the right, cutting their way through the bandits that were rushing out to attack them. Seeing that they were starting to get overwhelmed, the Overlord used his slow spell on the bandits to test it out and buy them the time they needed to finish them off. The spell came out as a beam-like line of circles that continued to expand the further away they got.

Once the area was cleared, the Overlord checked what was in the shack. As it turned out, the place was a miniature brothel. There were five women trapped there, held in place via bondage, unable to resist getting raped, they were covered in dried semen, had still wet semen dripping from their holes, and there were small puddles of it on the ground that had dripped off of their bodies and out of their holes. These whores had clearly been here for a while and hadn't been given many breaks. Valgaav would've taken them with him, but the last Waypoint gate was a bit too far to backtrack to. So he had to leave them until later. He also checked out the shed and saw that it was full of food, drink, and other necessities. Again he would've taken them, but the last Waypoint gate was too far.

He used his Reds to burn down the barrier that blocked his way, then continued on. After a few turns down the path, he found another clearing. This one had a few angry rams and bulls running around, a few bandits trying to get them under control, and two huge tents. And right after he got there, a Waypoint gate opened up. Rather than going after the bandits, rams and bulls first, he decided to go back and get the women as well as the food and supplies and send them to the castle. The women were half dead and completely out of it, so they didn't resist or even make much noise as they were carried off.

Now he was poised to deal with his latest foes. He positioned his Reds on high ground and readied his Browns. The Reds set one of the bulls on fire, that bull went crazy and rammed into everything, demolishing the tents, igniting the rams, and sending the other animals into a panic. The bandits were gored and trampled, when the other bulls got in range of the Reds, they too were set ablaze. After a few minutes of a flaming rodeo, the only things left alive were a couple of bandits who were on high ground, out of the way of the animals. And the Overlord managed it without getting a single scratch on himself or his minions.

Once the beasts were dead, the Overlord and his minions charged in. They gathered the life force, stole whatever they could find, and then killed off the last two bandits. Then they opened the gate to the next area. There they found more bandits. These ones were guarding a bunch of farm animals in pens, and a group of horses tied to posts. Most of them fought using fighting staffs and were skilled in their use, but they weren't as lethal as swords. The bandits got in a few hits, but they were wiped out anyway. The Overlord gathered up the farm animals, including all the ones he killed, and sent them all back to castle in order to help deal with the food shortage. He had no doubts the horses would be of great use in the future. Why they didn't already have a bunch of horses at the castle was beyond him. He also found another blood relic.

As they continued Valgaav spotted the bandit girl. She saw him and ran. Valgaav paused as he realized a possible plan she had. She'd trick him into thinking she'd gone ahead, while in fact she was hiding nearby. Then he'd pass her without realizing it, and she'd then have two options. 1: Try to kill him by attacking from behind. Or 2: Let him keep going and then escape the way he came. Given that the sneak attack had already failed twice, the second one seemed like her best option.

The path they were on had several holes in the rock wall that were ideal for hiding. They were dark, naturally formed, and inconspicuous. Then he came up with a plan. He placed several of his minions on a guard marker to block the entrance. Then he did the same to block off the other end. Then he took the remaining two minions and searched each of the holes. It wasn't long before she was forced to jump out and make a run for it. But when she saw that she was trapped, she knew she had to rethink that. There were minions blocking off each end, and their weapons were covered in the blood of her friends. And heading towards her was some kind of bloodthirsty knight, whose axe and armour were dripping with the blood of her allies. And that knight had already proven that even with the element of surprise, she was no match for him. So she did the only thing she could think of that might work.

"I give up," she said as she threw her daggers down and surrendered.

"I was kind of expecting more of a fight out of you."

"You've already won. We both know I can't beat you, and I don't want to die."

"And why should I keep you alive?"

"Here's two reasons," she said as she ripped her shirt open and exposed her tits.

"Where the heck was she hiding those?!"

She had appeared to be well endowed with her shirt on, but once her boobs were exposed it seemed like they doubled in size.

"Alright."

He then stripped the rest of her clothes off, tied her up and carried her to the waypoint gate to send her back to the castle. She didn't resist or anything, and within a minute or two she was imprisoned in the castle. Then Valgaav and the minions continued on their way.

.

They made it to the end of Skull Canyon, where the Black Flame Bandits made their base. But their base was actually an entire village. There were several houses, many tents, one large building, and dozens of bandits in sight. But what really drew his attention was the giant monster they had in a cage.

"That's a rock giant, Master. Rather nasty creatures. They're probably planning to use it to attack the town," said Gnarl.

"Yeah, but it doesn't seem happy with its current arrangements. If I set it loose, it might just wipe the bandits out for me."

By some stroke of luck, or flawed planning by the bandits, the wheel that opened the rock giant's cage was within easy access to them. All they had to do to get to it was tear down a locked wooden gate. About halfway through turning it, the bandits took notice and rushed in to stop them. But by then it was too late. They managed to get the cage open and the rock giant began to rampage and slaughter them. One kick sent several flying and shattered almost every bone in their bodies. They died upon landing. A bunch were stepped on, crushed into bloody stains in the dirt, a couple of them weren't so lucky as only their bottom halves were crushed and they were left screaming in pain as they died slowly from their injuries. A few were eaten alive, and others were picked up and either smashed like bugs, or thrown into the rock walls where they splattered like eggs in a mess of blood and guts. Soon the buildings were being destroyed. The bandits tried to fight back, but their blades didn't do enough damage to the monster. Realizing that the only possible outcome that awaited them was death, the survivors jumped into the river where they were all caught in the fierce undertow and drowned. They knew the river was a death sentence, but it was a far less gruesome way to die than what the rock giant was going to do to them.

"The good news is, the rock giant has completely wiped the Black Flame Bandits," said Gnarl. "The bad news, is that now he's after you. Tread carefully my lord."

"Oh jeez! Master, get outta there!" Luna cried.

"Run for it!" cried Leia.

Overlord Valgaav paused to think. He couldn't just run and let an angry rock giant run amok and destroy everything he was creating. He had to kill it and he had to do it now. Plus the bandits did a fair bit of damage to it and it was weakened, so he'd never have a better opportunity than now. He couldn't give it time to recover, it was now or never. He just had to come up with a plan of attack.

The Reds' flames would do almost nothing to a monster made of rock, so he sent them back to make room for more Browns. Then they charged in. Valgaav swept the minions around and had them attack the rock giant from behind. While it was busy trying to deal with them, Valgaav then used his lightning and struck the giant again and again. Once he had all he could take, the crumbling, bleeding giant tried to escape. But it was too late, Valgaav delivered the final blow with his lightning, and the giant stumbled, fell and died.

"Ha! Nothing I can't handle."

"No way!"

"You won?"

"I came, I saw, I kicked its ass!"

They couldn't believe he had beaten such a fearsome monster. That feat put him on par with entire groups of legendary warriors. And above many of them as he had dominated it.

The giant fell into the river, causing the water to turn red from blood and brown from dirt. Strangely when it fell it formed a bridge to an island-like section. On two sides it was surrounded by the river with its deadly undertow, and on the other two sides there were rock walls that were impossible to climb, making it a very secure place. It was here that the bandits kept their captured women and most important treasures. And it was on this place that a new Waypoint gate appeared.

Pretty much all of the girls held captive were stunning. Huge tits, killer bodies, and pretty faces with a few tattered shreds of clothing that covered nothing, accurately described most of them. The Overlord decided to keep them, so he send them to the castle.

But along with those girls there were a few familiar faces. Namely the female servants who rarely did their jobs, robbed the treasury and complained about the lack of money, then robbed the castle and made a run for it. They needed to be punished. They pleaded and begged for mercy, but he had none. He executed every last one of them personally, one after another. And because the bandits had already slaughtered the male servants, every last servant who had crossed him was now dead.

With that taken care of, they got to work. There was still a lot of loot there. There was the shield spell, which could protect him and his minions, a couple large bags of gold, the smelter, two cranes, a stash of weapons and armour, boxes of treasure, and supplies of all kinds including food, building material, clothes, books, tools, and other things he'd have use for. It took a while for them to clear everything out, but it was worth it.
