UPDATE 2023 March 27:

So, the project that derailed my time went on for way too long and has exhausted my brain. Sadly, it's also got me scattered about where I was going with DCV. I took a rest this last weekend and read some more transmigration novels, which has sluggishly sparked an idea for a "Demon Lord Returns Home" story.

That premise is centered around the weirdness of being a Demon Lord restored to one's original life, with a twist that the heroes summoned to [Generic Isekai World #23] are actually tricked into becoming pet demon lords until they rebel and another "hero" gets summoned to take their place. There's more Story World shenanigans involved in the plotting there, which I have given myself permission to turn into stupid levels of fluffy face slapping brainless blah, so I'm letting that mellow my brain for a little, and will hopefully either have a full story arc in that story to share, or bounce enough ideas around to get back to DCV here shortly.

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.

This is just a note to let you all know that today's chapter is delayed. I've had another project that's been derailing my time, and the chapter's not ready to post. Not gonna lie, it's been weird to be both excited for the work and frustrated for not getting to keep up with my regular writing.

In the meantime, might I suggest taking a look at Dungeon 42?

Synopsis:

> Things go awry when the forces of chaos recruit a new Dungeon Master. From underpaid pseudo taxi driver to underground murder labyrinth builder, one young ladies' life is getting flip turned upside down!

I've found it be a fun read, it's been ongoing for 2 years now, and as of this posting, updated within the last day.
