The Crown Of Sorrows

"Grace Lockhart was just an eight-year-old girl who lived on the streets when her mother abandoned her. Until Ruby, her best friend, walked into Grace's life. Ruby just happens to be a giant black bear. At least this is how Ruby started out. Now Ruby may just be the reincarnation of Winnie-the-Pooh. Something Grace cannot accept. The honey war is on. But with Ruby joining Grace's side as they both get isekaid into the world of Inherion. A vast cultivation world where Grace will find even more animal friends to join her in her comedic adventures. Such as the cow Dolly Moomaid or the fish-loving snake Hanaconda. Or the super soldier chicken Colonel Tenders, a giant 300-pound rooster, and his loyal dog soldiers. Grace's new animal friends will help her explore her destiny as The Crown Of Sorrows. Grace is someone who can always turn any bad situation into a beneficial one for her. And a terrible one for her enemies. Grace Lockhart’s favorite pastime in Inherion will be to slap arrogant villains and protagonists in the face. Grace will say, "What do you call that pride?" Only for Grace to slap them in the face. "That's not pride. That's stupidity. Get in line with the other rejects. Watch how this sister gets things done." Join her in her adventures.

The First BBQ

However, neither Grace nor Ruby were too concerned about trouble. Anything around here would pose little danger to Grace, considering her unusual ability to make people experience extreme bad luck. When Grace came upon a tiger demon that looked to have been recently killed, she felt like it was a waste to leave all of this delicious meat sitting there. So, Grace went over to the tiger demon and proceeded to cut it up. Grace felt like it was time to try the barbecue meat of this world. Supposedly, demon meat in cultivation worlds is extremely delicious and good for your cultivation.

So, Grace started to cook the demon meat with extra care, making sure that she used a bit of spice and salt. The demon meat quickly grew warm and moist. Grace looked to Ruby and noticed her drooling while Ruby waited for the food to be ready. Grace rarely cooked, as she is lazy by nature, but she will still cook if her mood is good. Grace is motivated by the foodie force, a powerful force that flows through all isekai kind, following the belief that food is life.

Grace finished grilling the demon meat but ended up giving most of it to Ruby and left the most succulent and greasy pieces for herself. Grace gave Ruby a stern look when Ruby looked sad. "What, don't complain about what food you get, Ruby. I did all of the work, so that means I get the best choice of the meat." Sitting down at the fire and eating, Grace's face soon became covered in juices from her meal, but she paid it little mind. When finished eating, Grace ran over to the river to wash her face up. Again, Grace noticed that she is being watched by something with bad intentions.

Greg Zim Bo saw a wonderful little girl in this jungle all by herself, washing up by the river. This little girl will catch quite a good price as a slave. With this intention in mind, Greg Zim Bo used a rather common movement technique to get close to Grace without her noticing him. As Greg Zim Bo made his way towards Grace, he could not help but exclaim at Grace's exotic blond hair and blue eyes with her light skin. But little does Greg Zim Bo know that he's the one in danger. There's a reason why such a little girl can be alone by herself in such a dangerous place. But Greg Zim Bo never was the brightest bulb in the bunch.

With a cultivation level at the third level of the Qi Condensation Realm, Greg Zim Bo is confident in capturing Grace, at least until Greg Zim Bo could no longer move for some reason. There is a reason why all of those monster and human corpses are laying around here. Unfortunately for Greg Zim Bo, he discovered that reason. A giant black effervescent spider shot up from under the ground and attempted to get Greg Zim Bo into its mouth. This spider is bigger than a standard minivan in size.

"What is going on?" Shouted Greg Zim Bo as he attempted to fight this giant spider demon. "No, this can't be happening. These dead bodies were supposed to have been killed by a fight between demons and a small local sect. What's the meaning of this?" Greg Zim Bo gathered his fire-attributed Qi and fired several fireballs at this demon, which proved to be useless. "What kind of monster is this? Why are you picking on me and not that defenseless little girl?"

The Demon Effervescent Spider visibly trembled at the mention of Grace, as if to say, "Are you out of your damn mind?" So, Greg Zim Bo continued to fire fireballs at the demon spider, which proved to be in vain as Greg Zim Bo was quickly wrapped up in the Effervescent Spider's silk. Finally, unable to escape, Greg Zim Bo got the crazy idea to blow himself up with his third-level Qi Condensation Realm cultivation, taking everyone with him.
