In Warhammer Fantasy as my ERP Character

21



Things are quiet. I have nothing to do. I cannot even make sense of time here. I only know that it is already a new day when I receive my daily 7 attribute points. Valariel also did not return to the Sanctuary for the night. Did she put an all nighter? Or is there another sort of problem? Teclis no doubt has confronted Asahane after he knows the hints that Valariel is his niece. But I also doubt that Teclis will reveal everything to Valariel even if he did know the truth.

I keep thinking about the worst case scenario. I can’t help getting more anxious and afraid as time passes. I hugged my knees even tighter as I sat. Trying to shift my attention away from my growing fears and anxiety. But my mind kept wandering. Especially with nothing to do.

I open up my status screen. Immediately putting 10 points to Willpower and raising it to base of 8 and becoming 20 after modifier. There is no sudden increase in level for Authority like last time. Does it only increase every 2 base Willpower increase? Will find out tomorrow if so. And now I have nothing to do anymore. Only waiting for someone to arrive or waiting for the severing of my connection with Valariel. My mind wandered again. Why exactly do my other owned souls or lesser daemons can’t be my primary gateway to the material world again? I tried to shift my attention away from my anxieties again

 

 

Requirement:

  • Magic aptitude
  • Vessel suitability and affinity (Can be improved with magic rituals on the vessel)
  • The vessel must also be powerful enough to house Host’s soul

 

 

Currently no one else fulfill all requirements

Note: 

Lesser daemons will also be banished to the warp should connection to primary gateway be severed. 

 

Fuck! That means I will be completely cut off from my beastmen herd. Do the lesser daemons also banished here? What happens if I am stuck here? The Sanctuary won’t just be gone right?

 

The Sanctuary will be repurposed as a controlled battleground.

There will be daily daemonic invasion in a controlled waves

If defeated during the waves Frenzy will activate for the remainder of the day

After four days, the Sanctuary will be opened for all as it must regenerate its power

Host must survive for an entire day against endless invasion as Sanctuary regenerates

This will continue until another primary gateway is acquired/made or strong enough to brute force into sufficiently corrupted part of the material world

Warning!

Greater Daemons or Daemon Princes might appear when Sanctuary regenerates

Greater Daemons or Daemon Princes could take host away from the Sanctuary if host is defeated

 

I felt a small relief. At least I am not instantly on the Four’s platter to be subjected to whatever fate it will be. The objective to survive is unchanged. It’s just that I will be in DOOM survival mode and not in the Old World. It doesn’t mean I want to be in DOOM survival mode though. As dark the Warhammer Fantasy Old World is, it is not comparable to the warp. Not to mention the chance of a Greater Daemon or a Daemon Prince to appear every fifth day. As for brute forcing to the material world that is sufficiently corrupted, I would be somewhere north of the world. So probably Norsca or beyond the Great Bastion north of Grand Cathay.

Though no doubt the reward from the system will accommodate the greater difficulty, I am still not confident in my chances. Perhaps later when I am a bit stronger but it seems I don’t have the luxury for that. My chances are not good as it is now. But it is clear that the system tries to support me the best it can. If I survive that is. Come to think of it, I still don't know what this system is made for. Are there even other Beta-Testers than me?

 

Milestone:

Survive 75 days

27/75 days

Reward: Unlock chat feature with other Beta Testers

Survive 100 days

27/100

Reward: Direct connection to system administrator for queries and input for the system

 

Fine, I know what to do now. I will survive 100 days then directly complain to this system administrator. Then I will ask why I am here. Those things are supposed to be explained from the start. Having other objectives beyond mere surviving feels nice. Now I am listing every possible thing I can complain about to shift my attention away. Oh right, I must notify Valeria about this.

 

Kal’s POV

 

Stupid pieces of shit. I cleaved another Ungor head. These beastmen behave like those Khornegors we defeated in the past. All kept screaming and attacking. And when half of them are dead they run like cowards. Well, that might be the smartest thing they did. But not only are they weak, they are also stupid. They just keep throwing bodies at us. Who is making this stupid decision?

This means we keep getting more food. They keep harassing us all the time. Slowing our journey south and reducing the time we have to breed. They also made more stupid decisions too. Based on how many they have sent against us, the other herd is considerably larger than our herd. They should just attack us with all their numbers

But this is good too. Since they keep throwing bodies at us, those who just reached adulthood in our herd will get more fighting experience. I have made a rotation so that we don’t get overwhelmed in exhaustion and get a chance to breed. With every dead beastmen from the other herd, now food and loot keep piling for us with less effort. Druig is also almost fully healed which is also nice.

But now I am confused whether we should focus on going south or kill the other herd chieftain. That way we might be able to take over their herd and go south faster. But the problem is that I haven’t seen any Bestigors or even Bovigors among them. This might be their usual approach on trying to exhaust their enemy before all of them pile in. So that idea to find and kill the other chieftain would be extremely risky. While our herd size has returned to the size when we fought the human army. We can still be defeated if something unexpected happens. I don’t know how many beastmen herds there are in Drakwald. Mother is captured just because of that unexpected factor. I will not repeat the mistake. For now we will continue to build our herd and see what might happen then.

 

Teclis’ POV

 

Valariel is still meditating. Which is good, at least she will not meet the daemon as she sleeps and letting it to further complicate the matter. I sat on my desk and continued rubbing my temple. Still mulling over on how I explain her mother’s acts. I cannot lie and must explain as it will be impossible to hide once she is freed. But her freedom is also complicated.

I have casted the First and Second Portent of Amul to divine the future. So far I do not like what I see. Daemons fighting over their claim on Valariel. Even worse is that if I cut the connection with the one possessing her, it will only give sign to other claimants that it will be gone and she is free for all again. At least one Greater Daemons have claims on her or are just pursuing other goals. But this divination is muddled as the daemon possessing Valariel have its own conflict making it very unclear on how many other daemons are involved. There is also a chance this might not happen as the future is very fickle and also the reason why I don’t like divination magic.

For now it is clear that the current daemon is cooperative. Even having some kind of positive relationship with Valariel which is extremely odd. I can’t believe that I will have to make some kind of compromise. I pulled a drawer and took out a parchment. Drafting my terms of contract. If it is desperate enough to be willing to offer its true name even if it can’t, it will accept this terms.
