Demon King

Chapter 22. Sixth Evolution 4

[I don't want to die again... Death is so cold!]

Why are you trying to kill us?]

[You're alive. We're already dead. Don't you feel sorry for us?]

The Fallen, Disfigured Soul, the undead against death, did not possess the same powerful physical power as the monsters of the new man's battlefield. But he was good at the magic of digging into the mind. The level was high, but the game with El did not affect me in any way, raising my spiritual and mental strength.

I just thought about how to eat them. Killing one of them will fail the conquest, so you can turn the Devil's Claw into a thin shield and simply stop their attack.

[You're pushing your soul out.]

[Keke, get that thing out of there and I'll go in there.]

[It's the body of an Elf. Cursed and Evolved Celestial People! That's mine!]

Of course I knew how.

When the level of the Devil's Claw was still low, I assimilated it with the Blood Shadow to slay the monster.

Therefore, even if it is not completely the same, it is necessary to give the ability to swallow ghosts in black smoke shaped by predatory skills.

It's easy to say, but it's not a normal job. Unlike the Blood Shadow, Black Smoke is not only negative, but it is completely separate from exerting power against the soul and devouring it.

But when I was thinking about it, I suddenly remembered.

Wouldn't it be easier just to turn it upside down?

Don't you think we can use the Devil's Claws to harness the power of predation?

It was a very simple idea. Even if I snorted that it couldn't be possible, there was nothing to say. It was just a momentary thought. I just thought it would be possible without logic or reason.

But then, suddenly, there was a huge explosion, like hundreds of thousands of fireworks in my head. I beat violently as if the heart of darkness were about to burst.

My body, soul, ability, prey, dark heart. What I could do with all of them, what I couldn't do, and everything I could do in the future filled my head and then foamed up.

Maybe it's the shape of the future. Maybe it's a delusion.

It was a moment when nothing could hold me back. I did not save half of the thoughts that occupied my mind, and most of them were meaningless to me now.

Nevertheless, I will never forget that moment. It's starting to change everything from the beginning. I was able to redefine myself and my position for the first time.

The first thing that changed was the devil's claws. A soul, to be exact?

I was able to capture in my body the energy of prey that could only be expressed by the flesh and by eating only by the mouth, and it was now able to express in my soul beyond the limits of the flesh.

Although, of course, I didn't realize what was possible until now, and then, when I dealt with the soul in many ways, I only learned.

And I realized it as well. Those who are staying in the shape of mutated souls are particularly sensitive to tactics, especially the qualitative changes in my power in a moment. Especially because it's based on a soul.

[Twitch.]

[Run, they're eating you!]

[I'm gonna die!]

The Devil's claws bloom from both shoulders, and as monsters from a newbie's battlefield once did, they spread out, transforming into long tentacles.

The undead begin to run from it, but they can't even get outside the Colosseum, and a short distance from it means nothing to me.

‘Let's get this over with. ’

I've been using the ubiquitous quarters in between, watching the undead flock to attack my soul and flee to the edge of a colosseum not so wide.

Suddenly, I was buried among the ghosts who were filled with evil energy, but my reluctance soon disappeared.

[Shhhhh!]

[I'm scared. I'm scared! It hurts!]

[I don't want to die!]

The Devil's Claw wraps around me like a snake. The tentacles emit a dark, gray aura that suddenly swells up and surrounds them, and that is the end of it.

They vanish without a single blow. It was completely consumed by the power of predation.

[Magic power has increased by 1.]

[Predatory Lv6. Increases the efficiency of all predatory behaviors.]

It grows. The power they have gained in the process of being born as the undead of the Soul is flowing towards me.

It was me who ate it, so I realized more than anything. This is the fact that they're completely extinct. I have now completely lost the possibility that I might have been able to catch it if I had stayed in the spirit.

It evaporated at the moment when a feeling of guilt was more faint than morning dew. They are only a fraction of the prey I will devour indefinitely.

If I wanted to be stronger, I could not be seduced by the little things in front of me. Seeing further, I had to take a larger step.

No matter how precious it may be, it can never be compared to my life.

I ignore them.

[Rrrrghhh!]

[It's working. My soul, my strength...!]

It took 7 minutes and 30 seconds from there to conquer Jinma's third floor.

For the first time since I entered Jinma's Tower, I have been able to conquer it without ever dying.

[Jinma Tower 3F Conquest 1/1]

[Quest Completed!]

[EXP 24,810,000.]

[You have won 13,000 gold.]

[Level Up!]

[You got 25 air balms.]

[You got 3 Energy Potions.]

[Evolutionary.]

The Colosseum disappears. Aelle stands still, grinning as she watches me grab the Devil's Claw.

“Now I feel a little faint. ”

“How many times have you seen me? Don't tell me things I don't know. I'm sick of it. ”

I snapped and triggered an evolutionary alert window.

[Please select the species to evolve.]

[1. Crimson Elf Blood Walker]

[2. Crimson Elf Shadow Runner]

[3. Crimson Elf Taker]

The first superspecies, related to the weapons and armor I deal with. A second superspecies that involves my skills such as ubiquitous or ambush. The third highest relating to my abilities, which I realized through the New Man's battlefield and the third floor of Jinma's Tower now.

There were concerns, but I was confident that I could be strong enough to choose any of the three. I had no choice but to cut it off and have a big impact on my future.

I quickly made my choice. Just before the agony of evolution began, I resolutely told Ai, who was staring at me dazed. That's what I've been wanting to say.

“Aha, tell me about me that you'll see from now on. I don't want to, but I will. ”

[Quest Occurred!]

[As you become stronger, this moment is also becoming stronger elsewhere. Your allies are small and enemies are powerful. Life belongs to the seeker. The moment you see the end, a new myth begins. Radio the dungeon. Faster than anyone else.]

[Black Palace District 7, Sector 5F Monster Hunt & Predatory 0/150,000]

[Top Species Hunting in Black Palace Zone 7 Zone 5F Predatory 0/500]

[Giant Troll Hunting Predatory 0/1]

[Jinma Tower 4th Floor Conquest 0/1]

[Garden of Delights 3rd Game Victory 0/1]

After the evolution, I waved lightly to Ei and immediately left Jinma's tower and opened the door to the dedicated shop. The rain was always wiping the glasses with a dry cloth. There was no sign of El when he came.

However, the reaction of the rain to greet me was a little strange.

“There you are, Feyte. … oh my god, you've grown so much. ”

“Is that so?"

I thought that evolution had not changed much, but the surprise of the rain was more than I imagined.

“Above all, the eyes. An eye that only someone like me can have, who can run unshakeably towards a solid goal that he can never have. That's really cool.”

I'm still not sure I want to hurt the rain properly, but why does it praise me so much while lowering myself?

I opened my mouth and lowered the question outside, and suddenly I stopped it. I tilted my head to see if the rain had noticed my tone, but I couldn't say anything because I couldn't explain my actions.

There must be a reason. A very important reason not to lightly touch me.

So instead of saying what I was going to say, I pulled out the stuff in my inventory and said,

“Look at this, Vee. What do you think of this egg? ”

“Fortune egg. That's the second time I've seen you in my life. It's one of the few items not sold in a private store. ”

I was flawed. It was natural for an ordinary mortal to not be an Elf because of the rain, and I had no clue about his lifespan... For the second time in such a long life.

Moreover, it made me even more excited to hear that it was not available in a dedicated shop. All this time, I thought I could get anything from a private store. As long as I have money.

“This is a possibility. There's no way of knowing who has it, and no way of knowing how to get it. Well, there's just one word... that a natural being influences it. That's why they named him Fortune Eggs.

C. ”

“Luck.”

The one that's been covered with question marks ever since my status. I didn't think because I couldn't tell even if I thought to myself. I gave up because I didn't teach anyone.

But if I get a fortune egg out of luck, maybe my luck is high?

“I've already started resonance with Fate. Can you feel it?"

“By the way... ”

The light contained in the fortune egg periodically shines as if its heart were beating. It was so similar to the beating of my heart. I felt like I was about to get sucked into it.

“Take your time. What Fortune Eggs needs is all of Fett's. Fate's Magic Power, Fate's Soul, Fate's Body, Fate's Experience, and Fate's Will. It's only the flowering of eggs that are affected by them all. The process of getting this is obviously lucky.

You may have been involved, but not from now on. ”

After giving Egg a seemingly lovely look, the rain pushed it back towards my chest and asked me.

“If Fett's trajectory is of little consequence, nothing is of little consequence in Fortune Eggs. But if Fate's trajectory is bigger and more beautiful...... You don't have to tell me, do you? ”

I embraced it. The pressure and confidence rose at the same time. I muttered in silence.

“A trajectory.”

The trajectory I will draw. A trajectory bigger and bigger, beautiful and unimaginable.

You turn your fortune egg back to your inventory. You leave the store and dive into the depths of the Black Palace.

Time has passed.

The number of rotations of the clock was not counted per day. It's been a year since the Great Fusion that Mireina heard about.

The rain was still gentle, but all I had to do was clean my glasses and follow the liquor. I, too, increasingly need his advice, but our relationship has become deeper.

Once a generous brother and an ugly brother, now I feel like a drinking buddy.

I got used to Ei's harsh words. I also realized that I care enough to be abnormal inside myself to say that I hate it all the time. That felt a little bad.

Obviously, he was a few times more alive than I was, and it was bad to treat people tens of thousands of times more than me. I didn't say it because I would be retaliated against.

El was consistent. No matter how my body turned, she faced my soul. Her presence consumed my mind, but her upright and deep feelings restored it.

The game with her started at the castle, finished the construction of walls, interior corridors and hundreds of rooms, and now has reached the exterior construction.

Yeah, it is.

Now I've reached the seventh floor of the Black Palace District 7.

[Commander.]

The voice in my head raises my head. I was in the middle of a battle with the top monsters, but my best raid and fairy tale skills helped me keep them safe in the middle of a battle.

[What's going on?]

When I became aware of the debris coming from the dungeon with excellent sensing, I asked Lee Chong-yu to do it correctly.

He frowns loudly.

[Looks like something happened that we were worried about.]

[As expected?]

A little forward until you see the end of the dungeon. I wanted to wait that long, but the world couldn't go back to the way it helped me.

[Guild is coming. Three things I've checked. "Dungeon Elf Extermination."]

I sighed and wielded the great sword. The neck of the ogre that was holding out until the end fell cold, covered in blood in my clothes and sword, and the next moment it was eaten by black smoke without a trace.

[You got 3,850,918 XP.]

[You got 12 Gold 38 Silver.]

[I'm coming up now.]

I started running towards the tunnels of the dungeon.

Before I left the dungeon, there was a war with the humans.
