*** To save her Grandpa, Astrid Rider goes to hell. Fist fights some demons. Steals their [skills] and uses them in broken combinations, (with the help of some bored heavenly whispers.) Builds a Warband of demons that have no idea how to handle her politeness. And gets confused by some very pretty demonesses. *** WHAT TO EXPECT : • GL, it's gonna be awkward and confusing! (No harem.) • lit-rpg, with customizable builds! • Weak to very strong, fairly fast progression! • Dry black comedy! • 99% single character pov! • No AI has touched this writing. You can tell because of all the mistakes! ***
