Chapter 1109 - 64: Abyssal Holy Hall
Zerata, Silver Palace, Swan Tower.
This was once the bedchamber of the Dark Monarch Glazest, inhabited by a large number of concubines and favored mistresses, to satiate Glazest’s endless desires.
And now it serves as the bedchamber for Duncan’s demon incarnation, because only the grand bed here can satisfy the sleeping needs of the demon incarnation.
Duncan isn’t sure why the size of the demon incarnation keeps increasing; possibly it’s related to the transformation template of the Balrog Flame Demon Tanari race, as normal Balrog Flame Demons are roughly over four meters tall, and his demon incarnation, as a promotion to Demon Lord, clearly takes up a larger form.
Currently in the luxurious bedchamber behind the Swan Tower, Trasia descends slowly under the support of two Enchanting Mages, trembling slightly.
"I must study the Giant Transformation Technique carefully."
Trasia, exhausted, allows the Enchanting Mages by her side to attend to her dressing. If not for the Enchanting Mage Lord Marita sharing much of the burden, she would likely have no energy left to handle Zerata’s affairs.
"Perhaps I should birth a half-Purgatory offspring."
Trasia caresses her swollen belly; half-demons akin to Cambions and children of Purgatory can breed, and practically nothing prevents the Dark Monarch Glazest and Enchanting Demon Queen from reproducing.
"Only in this way can I gradually control him."
Ambition flickers in Trasia’s eyes, as the power of the spell dissipates, her form gradually returns to normal, transforming from a slender figure over three meters tall back to a tiny stature of 167 centimeters, making her appear even smaller and more delicate within this grand palace.
——"Giant Transformation Technique: This spell can instantly enlarge human-like creatures, doubling their height, making their weight eight times the original, thereby increasing their size tier by one."
Trasia relies on the Giant Transformation Technique to forcibly stabilize herself within the large creature category.
Although this height remains quite modest compared to the demon incarnation, it at least reaches near giantess proportions. Nonetheless, as a child of Purgatory traversing the Bottomless Abyss, even without the Giant Transformation Technique’s empowerment, Trasia has her own ways to charm and gratify the demon incarnation.
The Balrog Flame Demon is an unquestioned superior in the Bottomless Abyss; even without serving a Demon Lord, they can become Balrog Lords.
Thus, many female denizens of the Bottomless Abyss, including Enchanting Demons, Cambions, and children of Purgatory, possess methods to please the colossal Balrog Flame Demons.
Low-tier demons lack reproductive desires; this ability is stripped away until they evolve into high-tier beings.
All is to serve the superiors of the Bottomless Abyss.
Compared to the inexperienced Trasia, certainly the Enchanting Mage Lord Marita is more adept at enduring battles; her voluptuous form extended by the Giant Transformation Technique can shoulder more firepower.
"As Marita said, this demon can be gradually controlled through desires."
"Don’t rush."
"Someday he will bow beneath my feet."
Joy flickers in Trasia’s eyes; as long as there are weaknesses to target, she can slowly erode, corrupt, and control them. Someday, she will be able to reclaim the power to lead the Demon Legion. Now she has already manipulated Zerata’s situation; aside from the army, she is undeniably the queen of the Dark.
It’s a promising thought.
In the Bottomless Abyss, there is another woman who shares her thoughts, namely the Enchanting Demon Queen Meikanshute.
The might and weaknesses of the demon incarnation are equally evident.
In just a few days, at least in the eyes of other demons, Duncan’s demon incarnation has already become a benchmark, a warrior lacking sufficient cunning and wisdom, yet with a somewhat laughable adherence to contracts, which is quite a contradiction given demons are known for their capriciousness.
As long as sufficient interest is offered, demonic betrayal can occur at any moment.
This is precisely what Duncan hopes to see.
Because the demon incarnation is also in a promotion state, and at least until he prepares to act genuinely, Trasia needs to stand on the forefront to attract most of the attention.
An unfounded Demon Lord taking over Azgregate would draw too much attention.
But Trasia, the progeny of the Dark Monarch, after his violent demise, naturally eliminated her other siblings, then controlled Zerata, becoming the new Dark Queen, would be accepted by many.
Some might even believe that the Dark Monarch Glazest will ultimately resurrect through Trasia.
Zerata, Galer Hashta.
At this moment, through an opened portal, a Zor Elf Priestess of unrivaled beauty appeared on Zerata’s plaza, with a procession of Purgatory Priests behind her, overseeing various Material Plane churches dedicated to the Spider Goddess Queen Rose.
The Spider Goddess Queen Rose is a cross-planar Divine Spirit, venerated in many Material Planes.
Ikryfda arrogantly returns here; regardless of her success or failure, she remains the Divine Favored of the Spider Goddess Queen Rose, and thus her demeanor must be prideful, observing everything with a superior attitude, including those mighty upper-tier demons.
Just a deceased child.
It can be regenerated.
Ikryfda feels no sorrow over Asas’s death, and today, in her ambassadorial role, she returns here, driven by the interest the Spider Goddess Queen Rose has in Zerata.
Behind Ikryfda, a humanoid wax-melt demon—a god-created Purgatory creature—whispers, "The counterpart has lingered in the luxurious bedchamber within the Swan Tower of the Silver Palace for several days."
