KILL SIX BILLION DEMONS: Beginnings are false and I am a consummate liar.

[Leewei]

And now, the hoard is trying to kill them - right after Cio upbraids Alison and tells her not to worry.

Who here hasn't had a DM that made a room full of mimics

[AMX]

Charon says "By all accounts, we've already cleared this room out. And I don't remember so much clutter."

They just got in, so he's got to refer to a previous break-in... presumably using the exact same tunnel they used this time.
Infinite volume or not, of course the old entrance has been turned into a deathtrap.

I'm half-expecting this entire section of the vault to be a mimic.

A room with a mimic pod.

As a quick aside, National Public Radio just published a list of favorite graphics novels for summer 2017. Both KSBD and Gunnerkrigg made the list.

[-D-]

New comic.

Oscar is like: NOPE, NOPE, NOPE.


Meanwhile, Incubus is like:

[Aquillion]

Can I just say that I like Incubus' interactions with Allison a lot more than I thought I would? He's obviously a terrible person and a terrible influence on her and his bargain with her is going to go horribly for everyone involved, but it's still cool.

[lord_khaine]

Well whatever said, he is a good mentor figure, teaching Allison a lot of useful skills.

Two down, 5,999,999,998 to go!

Bitch had it coming. /Incubus

She must work on her efficiency otherwise this is gonna be a comic of decidedly above average length.

The Rising King is about quality rather than quantity.

The Rising King is about quality rather than quantity.

What we want isn't quality or quantity, but quantity of quality

I expect there to be a scene where Alise obliterates 5,999,998 demons. In a single hit.

And then she would be done with 0.1 % of her task

Do we know how many demons there are left though? perhaps this is a cosmic prank? Maybe there are only 5,999,999,996 demons left?

[mystic1110]

Do devils even count as demons?

Well, six billion is a high number. Five million is like a good start.

Its pretty debatable whether he's teaching her anything at all, or is just performing the skills himself through her.

[Tom Tearcamel]

Charon is concerned, it was awfully early to be losing folks who could still be useful. At least it will no longer be an issue of having 10 equal shares in the 11 man crew. I love this comic so much.

Even if thats the case then it is likely to teach her something. Like having a grandmaster guide your hands though a martial art sequence.

What i myself think this comic nailed is how badly Allison screwed up with Cio. She did save Allisons live several times. And she could have been a friend. Instead of what she is now. Just a Devil Burglar.

[mystic1110]

To me, it seems that Incubus literally just lets you skip your own training montage - so it's not that he teaches you anything, but he allows you to do stuff you would have learned on your own eventually as though you had already learned it.

The nice things about stories is that I can be almost sure they will make up well unless Cio gets killed then Allison could regret not making up so that works too.

I want to say T H E D O O R, but site seems down. Anyway they managed to get to the D O O R. And it's G L O R I O U S.

[halfeye]

Forbidden for me, that's a down, right?

[Leewei]

Forbidden for me, that's a down, right?

It is. Maybe not to Felicia, though!

[Olinser]

Forbidden for me, that's a down, right?

Yes, site appears to be down, its happened once or twice before.

[Aquillion]

The webcomic's site is down while migrating to a new server, but here is the latest page, posted to the author's Tumblr.

[SlyGuyMcFly]

Good to hear it's just a server migration! Thanks for the links too.

And yikes, that door. Guess it's time for Felicia to do what she was brought in for.

[GrayDeath]

And I was already going "Waaaahhh, ist down, ist DOWN!!! The Devils made him do that!! " ^^

[Tom Tearcamel]

Saw THE DOOR solution coming from a mile away. A very similar thing happened in a popular fantasy series I follow. (I won't name it because SPOILERS!!! ). But I really hope Alison can step in and do something about it. I'd like her to blow a hole through the wall or something, screw that DOOR.
