The cobra demon’s neck flared open and closed, its pleasure clear in its crystalline blue eyes.

Though Hearth Power was possibly the Power that it was the least suitable with, this could sarcastically assist with its breakthrough.

The penultimate realm one may attain of their Power, a step that the cobra had but to succeed in itself, was to start one’s reverse upon reaching an excessive, whereas the last word realm was to revert again as soon as extra.

These had been ideas that Leonel had no thought about, and so they had been issues that the demon had solely discovered itself after numerous 1000’s of years.

The demon felt that it was nonetheless a number of steps away from this penultimate stage, but when it may immediately grasp the precise reverse of its personal Power to such a excessive stage and even be capable of meditate on these full Star Runes, it will lastly make a breakthrough.

With such a breakthrough, even when it did not develop into a Chaos Class demon and even when it stayed within the Sixth Star, it will nonetheless develop into a number of folds extra highly effective, possibly even dozens of folds!

The demon clutched the 2 Innate Nodes, trying towards what remained of Leonel’s corpse with a touch of fondness that appeared utterly misplaced. One would have thought that it was its personal youngster relatively than a meal that was half accomplished.

When it made it settle its feelings and regained its calm, it continued to eat. Up Leonel’s torso, savoring the tenderness of his lungs and sweetness of his coronary heart.

The demon had by no means had a human that tasted so good. Most of its life, it may solely cannibalize its personal type. However demon flesh was very exhausting to eat, which was why people refined it. An excessive amount of was misplaced within the course of.

However human our bodies, even ones as robust as Leonel’s, had been so delicate and tender by comparability, and that was particularly since a corpse could not presumably activate Bronze Runes. They had been an distinctive delicacy and one which demonkind could not get sufficient of.

When the demon had completed consuming by way of Leonel’s neck, jaw and far of his face, leaving nothing way more than what remained of his mind, it could not assist however sigh. It needed to eat extra, to savor extra. Sadly, there was just one Leonel right here.

Greatest

No, that wasn’t true. As soon as it refined this and have become a Chaos Demon, it will be highly effective sufficient to focus on these actually monstrous people and strengthen itself.

And since it will have been an developed Chaos Demon, it would not be caught behind the seal both, so there can be little to nothing the people may do about it. It will be too highly effective!

In reality, the one Chaos Demons operating round this world now had been the only a few that had escaped the destiny of being sealed, and those like this Fiend Class demon that developed on their very own after the occasion of all these years in the past.

In fact… The people had no thought about this…

Whereas they had been preventing full blown wars in opposition to the Demon Bubbles, the Nice Households, the supposed defenders of humanity, had been hardly preventing any battles in any respect.

It was all a fantastic joke. They consolidated their energy based mostly on what that they had supposedly executed and had been presently doing for people, when the fact was that they did nothing in any respect however dwell lives of luxurious.

In fact, this wasn’t totally the case. There have been nonetheless some Chaos Demons they needed to preserve in test, and so they handled most demons prefer it forward of time earlier than they might evolve. It undoubtedly wasn’t a coincidence that it of all demons had been captured like this, it was a technique of eliminating future issues.

However for probably the most half, the Nice Households rested on their laurels. And now that they lastly confronted an issue they felt they may not simply be capable of cope with, relatively than doing their job because the protectors of humanity, the job they had been paid so handsomely for whether or not through tributes, respect, or energy, they as an alternative selected to carry such an occasion as an alternative.

They deliberate to wrangle collectively some helpful abilities they might use as cannon fodder in order that they’d as soon as once more be capable of survive whereas placing in a minimal quantity of effort.

People had been actually pathetic.

The cobra demon sneered.

Clearly it had a large amount of intelligence to piece all of this collectively. However how a lot of it was true and the way a lot of it was simply its distaste and bias in opposition to people who had hunted it down for its entire life, that a lot was unknown…

The cobra demon rigorously ate round what was left of Leonel’s mind. Piece by piece, it swallowed them down.

Simply because it had anticipated, the actions of the small crimson threads turned sluggish and so they even turned dimmer. By the point there was nothing in any respect left of Leonel however his Ethereal Glabella, the crimson threads had no motion left by any means, falling right into a dormant state and even shedding their crimson coloration, changing into a dull black.

The demon caressed the small Ethereal Glabella. Because it sat in meditation, its abdomen churned and its physique rapidly refined Leonel piece by piece.

A relentless wave of energy flooded by way of it many times in tall tsunamis. Its cells and its blue scales shone with a vibrant coloration.

After which, for the primary time in over ten thousand years, its scales really started to shed.

Each shed cycle the cobra demon went by way of, the energy of its physique would really greater than double. It could not consider that such a weak human had given it such an evolution earlier than it even entered the Chaos Demon realms!

The extra excellent its Fiend Class physique, the stronger its Chaos Class physique can be! This could not have come at a greater time.

The cobra’s tongue flickered out and in, its sapphire eyes glowing like two blazing torches. After which, it swallowed Leonel’s Ethereal Glabella, getting into a completely targeted state.

Its physique could not be extra primed and prepared proper at this second.

BOOM!

The aura of the demon started to skyrocket, its energy advancing by leaps and bounds because it rushed towards the Chaos Demon realms.

Its physique bulged and shrank in a steady cycle, its muscle fibers doubling and its organs shining with a resplendent gentle.

What the demon did not know, although, was that its actions of pushing Leonel by way of the gates of demise and eventually and actually woke up the latter’s soul, a state that solely the Spirituals may expertise… a race of those that constructed their very own our bodies.

Throughout the demon’s abdomen, Leonel’s Ethereal Glabella flashed.

[Life Steal]. [Instant Recovery].

The demon, who had been sitting on the sting of ecstasy, immediately froze.

A robust pulling drive latched onto its circulatory system, ripping at its blood and swallowing it by the tens of liters.

The demon’s restoration talents made up this blood straight away, however the suction solely elevated.

At first it thought that this was a part of its evolution, nevertheless it was then that it realized that it may now not really feel its reference to Leonel’s Ethereal Glabella. In truth, the 2 Innate Nodes that it had put aside to fuse with later, immediately shot into the air, dashing towards it and stabbing two holes in its abdomen.

The demon roared with fury, realizing that there was undoubtedly an issue.

It had at all times been fast on its ft and very clever. If not for this, it will have by no means made it thus far and been so persistent.

With out hesitation, it pierced a claw into its stomach, ripping its abdomen sack out and throwing it an extended distance from itself.

The demon’s scales turned considerably pale and its aura plummeted, however even nonetheless, it solely fell from the Quasi Seventh Star to Tier 3 of the Sixth Star. Nevertheless, it wasn’t taking note of this in any respect, its blue eyes having develop into pink with fury because it watched a blob of flesh rapidly reform amidst a pillar of gold gentle, even its abdomen sack was absorbed and used to reform the bare physique of a well-known younger man.

Leonel fell a few foot from the air, his face pale and his limbs nonetheless trembling.

He had felt each second of himself being eaten alive. It was a sense that made his physique vibrate from head to toe.

He gripped his fists, his lips much more blue than pink and his hair much more white than violet. Even his Dimension had dropped from the Sixth again all the way down to the Fifth.

He raised his head, assembly the gaze of the cobra demon. At that second, the cobra demon, who was livid in its personal proper, trembled.

The fury in Leonel’s eyes drowned out its personal. Fueled by humiliation, Leonel’s rage appeared to wish to burn the world to ash.
