Devil Chapter 326: Improved Magic (1/2)
The Demon Fire Worms continued streaming into the pit which was now filling up fast. At the side, there werea bunch of fat worms who actually knew how to climb up to shore to avoid the traffic, through what had to be eithera stroke of brilliance on their part or who knows what…
Having just been driven off, it was highly unlikely that the Flame Devouring Fishes would return anytime soon.
Furthermore, this battle wasn’t a complete waste either. In truth, it was the perfect opportunity to verify whether the golems could overwhelm the fishes under such circumstances.
By the time the pit was about full, Nola, who had gone chasing after the fleeing fishes, had just returned along with several dozen lower starred Demonic Fire Salamander.
“I’m back.”
Salamanders in tow, she swam up to shore, dragging a wave of lava up with her at the same time. In the meantime, her gigantic limbs plopped down with thunderous rumble, as if she had no inkling about how huge her body actually was.

“Dead?”
“Mhm.” Nola nodded her head before sweeping an eye over her salamander kin. Tone relaxed, she said: “These are some of the temporary guards I managed to find. They will aid in guarding the entry and exit points, they can also communicate with the Demon Fire Worms. If there is anything you wish them to do, just tell them.”
With regards to the unplanned decision by her to bring more salamanders to help, I wasn’t that surprised. As a fellow carnivore, she was probably worried that we would force the Demon Fire Worms to split or even kill them off before they did.
Regardless of what reason she had, this was within my expectations. Rather, what concerned me was whether or not they could speak the tongue of the Devil.
“Can they speak Devil?”
“No.” She shook her head before explaining:” For us salamanders, learning Devil isn’t an easy feat. Normally, only Five-stars and above Salamanders would know how to speak in the tongue of the Devil. Even so, they can understand it at least.”

“As long as they understand, it’s fine.” It wasn’t like I could make too much demands of them anyway. With that in mind, I turned around to face No.6 who was respectfully waiting by my side. “No.6, go familiarize yourself with them for a while, you guys would probably be working together in the future for a long time.”
“Understood, Master.”

No.6 was a clever fellow. He knew how to read the moment and he was eloquent as well. Amongst the Devils, he was truly a rare talent. If he really managed to construct a recruitment point to my satisfaction, I wouldn’t mind employing him heavily once more. It wasn’t like there was any chance of him betraying me anyway, what with our master and servant pact. More importantly, in a world of meat brain Devils, trying to find someone smart wasn’t easy.
While No.6 started communicating with the Salamanders, I turned my head to face my little sweetie who was currently running circles around the new pit with Cinderel.
“Mona, come to Papa for a second.”
Hearing that, she happily flew over with Cinderel while calling out in her melodious voice that sounded almost like a chime: “Mona’s coming, Mama.”
As always, she dove into me and started slobbering all over me. A while of having fun passed before I reached out with my hand to try and stop her. However, she deftly shifted herself to the back of my neck while her legs locked themselves securely on my shoulders in what had to be her favorite position thus far, the pony riding stance.
I left her to her own adorable devices for a while longer. Finally, when she had calmed down somewhat, I asked what had been on my mind for a while now: “Sweetie, Papa wants to know, exactly what was that black magical fog you used a while back against that Demon Fire Sprite?”
“That was Mo Na’s personally modified magic, it’s really fun.”

‘Modified magic…so what you’re saying is my little girl is a 100%, absolutely no take backs, bonafide genius?! For her to modify and improve upon spells…unthinkable! Can her talent be anymore unreal, she’s not even one years old yet!’
“You used the Vengeful Soul spell as a base?” That fog was vaguely familiar to me, it was out of the blue that I remembered her showing off this particular spell to me in the past. Back then, the form of the spell was roughly similar, only the color of the fog was different.
“Mhm, that was an improved Vengeful Soul.” Mo Na answered confidently. “Mo Na increased the mana capacity of the spell andadded a Shadow Darkness element to it to give the spell a corrosive effect. Plus, plus, it’s now more flexible than the original one, it can even avoid some physical attacks because it is smoke…”
