Despair's DemiseA Progression Fantasy
With seven gods down, only the Overgod is left, in the last installment of this witty isekai adventure series.
The Tower of Moros has collapsed to the ground, and the citizens of Inexoria aren’t exactly thrilled to meet the four adventurers responsible: two inhumanly powerful women and two seemingly adorable, actually terrifying cats. Anyway, Telos Metanoia, the shapeshifting daughter of Aetherius and Nyx (with a newly ominous third eye in her forehead), and Kallos Metanoia, nephilim daughter of Belial, formerly known as Aoibhe, aren’t planning to stick around.
They’re leaving the tower behind as wives, partners, and sixth-level cultivators (thank you very much). And their god-eating dragon-cats, Arkaziel and Bobbi, are just happy to get to a good place to have some tea. For her part, Telos has come a long way since her days on Earth as Aesca Lampi, and there are several dead gods to prove it. Next up: killing Oizys, the former enslaver of her friend Werylin and oppressor of the entire land of Grief.
With two towers destroyed and each god now a nice snack, you’d think they’d have it easy. But the Overgod is hot on Telos’s tale, and the Archons chasing them are no walk in the park either. It’ll take every ounce of the fearsome foursome’s wit—and help from a few allies—in order to survive this final chapter and save Grief once and for all.
