Chapter 1579 Time To Try The New Demonic Abilities
"Papa feels stronger!" Benladra pointed at me as she was grabbing a Golden Apple. "Did you get stronger, papa?"
"Yeah, yeah, I did just Rank Up this annoying Demon King Seed." I laughed at the distance. "Don't bother with me. Your brother's about to eat another one of those, be careful, we don't want him to get a stomachache."
"Oh, no, Drakda, don't eat those green berries, they're super sour!" Benladra panicked as her little brother chomped on them.
"Guuhh…" Drakda immediately recoiled, his cute and youthful face suddenly changing, becoming rough and disgusted. Those green berries were indeed too sour.
"Drakda what did I said about eating weird fruits?" Miranda sighed.
"Gueeh…" Drakda ended spitting the berries still inside of his mouth, and he was carried by his mother.
"Sorry auntie…" Benladra apologized.
"Ah, you don't have to apologize, dear." Miranda said. "Drakda's still experiencing the world I suppose."
"Miranda, hurry! Help me catch the Running Potatoes, they're escaping again!" Benladann cried.
"Ah shit, those damn potatoes! Why do we raise those things again?" Asked Miranda.
"They're tasty." Kate answered.
Then they started chasing a Divine Treasure subproduct named Divine Sprinting Potato, that has leg-like roots and runs once it detects it is going to get grabbed and eaten. Why did we have this creature in specific? Well, we had all matter of vegetables with magic and divine properties. They were very tasty. Some were tricky to catch, but it was worth the hassle.
I wanted to join them and enjoy the rest of the day with them, but there were still some things I needed to assess. After my Rank Up, not only my Demonic Physique Ability developed even more, gaining a new Ability that I'll probably be using really soon, but also another Demonic Ability.
[Infernal Wolf's Blazing Rampage: Rank 3 Demon Overlord (SSS)]
A Demonic Ability that belonged to Marchosias, the powerful Demon Lord capable of transforming into a gigantic blazing wolf, known for his madness and rampaging attacks.
Harness all Fire-type Abilities and Divinities into your body at the same time, combining them perfectly and harmoniously, and use your soul to fuel their power, Increasing your Attack Power and Movement Speed by +400% -> +500%, alongside Increasing the Power of all Fire-type Abilities and Magic by +600% -> +700% while on flames, however, you take -0.8% -> -0.6% of your HP as Damage every second. While unleashing a Blazing Rampage, any foe you attack as your body is on flames will receive tremendous consecutive damage from both physical blows and flames, dealing up to +900% -> +1000% Damage, while ignoring -40% -> -50% of a foe's resistances to the Fire Attribute and setting them ablaze, draining their strength and vitality. When you activate this Ability, you can now summon 1 -> 2 {Demonic Spirit: Fire-Spitting Demon Wolf Marchosias} to aid you in battle in exchange of Demonic Energy and Divine Power. This Spirit will have 50% -> 60% of your total stats and will regenerate endlessly for as long as 10 -> 20 minutes, before it fades away.
Once you summon the {Demonic Spirit: Fire-Spitting Demon Wolf Marchosias} to aid you in battle, it is now possible to temporarily transform them into a {Demonic Spirit Weapon} of your shape and choice, which will translate the Total Stats it inherited from you into its new Weapon Stats. Additionally, when dealing damage with this Weaponized Marchosias, any hit has a 30% chance to trigger {Explosive Demonic Flare} that can deal up to 500% damage and ignore -90% of a foe's defenses, you can also drain 10% of the damage dealt as Demonic Energy. Summon duration halves when transformed. (New Ability!)
"This is utterly insane…"
The Marchosias Skill, which had started rather lame, ended becoming much more amazing with each upgrade. Is this how all Demonic Abilities are going to be? With each Demon King Rank, they just become even more ridiculous. They all require Demonic Energy to use properly though, so I need to be careful when handling this precious resource.
But even then, this Ability alone gives me all the offensive power I need when wielding Demonic Energy. A powerful charge attack with explosive damage, a demonic spirit summon that is basically immortal, and even one or two demonic spirit weapons that can drain demonic energy and deal explosive damage.
Wait, drain demonic energy? Can I convert the life I take with each strike into Demonic Energy?! That's already insane! If I go in a rampage against many foes at once. I could easily farm some more millions of it…
"Pretty strong, isn't it? That last ability is incredible too. With it, you can potentially farm Demonic Energy even from non-demon sources." Said the System. "Your Divine Realm is plagued with all matter of Divine Monsters too! Although killing too many could affect the ecosystem…"
"Well, we can create more using Divine Power imbued into the Dungeon Cores, right?" I wondered. "Then I could find a way to exchange Divine Power into Demonic Energy to an extent…"
"Oh, that's genius!" She said. "Want to give it a try?"
"Ahhh… Well, I'm with my family here so I can't just go away." I laughed. "But yes, let's try it." I quickly created a doppelganger I controlled with my mind and soul and teleported it through my divine realm authority inside of the Dream Dungeon I had absorbed recently.
We found ourselves in the middle of a gigantic, abandoned futuristic city. Yeah, this was the Dream Dungeon made from the Memories of Jonathan and the Dreams of Ashlock, or well, their previous life as Test Subjects left behind.
"Does this remind you of anything, buddy?" Ashlock appeared by my side as I summoned him. He was slightly larger now, but still resembled a red and black colored demonic tree, covered on small eyes, with a bigger crimson eye in the middle of its trunk. "Kyuh?" He was confused, it seemed he didn't remember his past as these Test Subjects anymore.
"Oh well, time to grind some Demonic Energy, Ashlock. I got one billion, but more is never enough." I said. "You can also help me regain more through Predation, right?"
"Kyuhhh!" Ashlock was ready to eat anything.
"Good. Fuyu, infuse some Divine Power into this Dream Dungeon's Core, produce at least a million Divine Monsters." I commanded.
