Being President was not the glorious job that it sounded like when you were a kid. There was a lot of work involved. Long days dealing with politicians, religious leaders, and corporate overlords, all of whom thought that the world revolved around them, and their ag...

Chapter 259 – Dungeon Pantheon
Once I’d delivered Kang back at Beijing, and we were out of Chinese airspace, I sent a message to Kou through GodNet, requesting that, when her priest came to Earth, that they seek out the Monkey King. I made sure to give her the basic information about ...

Chapter 56 – Tea
Brigadier Stanley Brown frowned as he read the documents. It was bad enough that the proper running of his base had been thrown into disarray by the influx of soldiers from across the Armed Forces. Bad enough that he had what older generations wouldn’t hesitate to cal...

Rachel frowned as she looked around. “This is…”
“Yeah, I agree.” I shook my head in disgust as we finished clearing the fourth floor of the dungeon. This place had started fucky and gotten worse, fast.

Chapter 258 – Negotiations
As the Monkey King took up his gifts with hoots of pleasure, I smiled, and said, “Oh, Great Sage! If you look upon my gifts kindly, would you not also hear the counsel I have to offer you? For the world of the System is strange and different from the...

Chapter 55 – Boot Camp
It was a cloudy day, as I stood on the training field at Stirling Lines, home of the United Kingdom’s Special Air Service. The SAS was playing host to the training camp I had agreed to. Because of that, one third of the troops being trained were SAS, equivalent ...

Chapter 257 – Monkey King
And so it happened that the Bloodhawk, manned by my loyal soldiers, picked up an emissary from the Chinese government when we landed briefly at the airport in Beijing. His name was Kang Wei, and he was dressed in a formal Zhongshan suit. As he stepped ...

Chapter 54 – Failure

It took more than one call, of course. Flying a ship like the Bloodhawk into not just Chinese airspace, but over the mainland of China itself was not something that you could just do on a whim, and the Chinese government was loath to actually allow it, fo...
