53 Resurgence (2/2)
After talking for a while, the Overlord said that we were free to eat his remains, as he would be glad if it could be of any help. And so, we did, everyone did. Redgaria, Wagyu, my wives, and even Abellona and his brothers.
[You and the rest of your servants learned the following Skills]
[Wyvern Overlord Powerful Presence]
[Wyvern Overlord Pure Fire Heart]
[Wyvern Overlord Flaming Lava Muscles]
[Wyvern Overlord Vulcan Flare Breath]
[Wyvern Overlord Magic Reflecting Scales Armor]
[Flaming Overlord Magic Core Sphere]
[Heaven Shattering Flaming Overlord Lava Claws]
[Fast MP Regeneration]
Shadrach didn't eat his remains as he felt that he wouldn't get any power from it.
I saved the rest on my Item Box for the rest of my servants on the castle.
Although I wanted to explore this new dungeon (and possibly eat sealed spirits) I contained myself as it was getting quite late. We quickly headed back home with the Wyvern Overlord himself in person.
.
.
.
When we got back home, I introduced Shadrach to my people and gave him a small trip around the towns and castle, he was surprised on how much he has achieved in such little time, saying that it took him several years to even build his old castle. Sadly, this castle was destroyed by the Humans not so long after his sealing.
Leaving him in the same room as his children, I used the rest of the afternoon training on the Training Grounds with my Servants and Wives. Redgaria also came to train with us, it seems that after obtaining several ”body-boosting” skills, that passively increase the strength of one body, he had slowly been regaining his strength, and even seemed a little bit younger.
The Rin sister summoned around three thousand Demonic Beings this time, which granted tons of EXP to everyone.
[You gained 156890 EXP] [The rest of your servants gained tons of EXP]
[You gained two levels!] [LEVEL 14/70 EXP 24262/76000]
[The rest of your servants gained tons of levels!]
My servants have grown so strong that they sweep through so many slimes as if it were nothing, and we ended up pretty early.
I used this time to eat the Undead Soldiers, Undead Mages, Undead Giants, and the Undead King remains with his Demon Sword shattered pieces. I also had the other Shadow Awakening Rings and was thinking about what to do with them. I still doubted eating them for the fear of a bad curse.

”More skills than what I expected… And what is this last one?”
After trying the skill [Full Demon Armor Transformation: Four-Armed Death King: Legion], my whole body was covered on a thick and spiky purple armor, the armor also gave two new pairs of arms and legs, alongside two heads made of skulls. I could feel my power increase even more, but such a heavy armor made my movements extremely slow. Maybe it could be fused with other skills to become more refined.
While training and trying out my new skills, I discovered that each ”Technique” Skill was able to give me both the proficiency over the weapons and every technique learned by the user. I felt a small guilt over obtaining something that took so long to develop so easily.
Even I couldn't believe how good I became using any type of weapon, from swords, axes, and even spears. I even imagined myself using my shapeshifting while having 4 more arms, each one wielding a different and legendary weapon.
I tried doing this but I failed horribly, as I needed a lot of practice if I wanted to use so many techniques at once.
I suddenly remembered that I had taken the weapons of the Undead Archer and the Undead Knight on my Item Box, and decided to eat them too.
[You learned the following Skills]
[Weapon Summoning Magic: Wind Magic Bow: Mercedes]
[Weapon Summoning Magic: Dark Wyvern Scale Demonic Axe: Vulcan]
Now I had four weapon summoning magic counting the Wyvern Overlord Greatsword, for a moment, my power got the best of me and I imagined myself as powerful goddess slaying countless of Humans wanting to take my family from me.
The power that Humans gave me was incredible, I wanted to eat more. Hopefully not being an undead. I wonder if I could steal their God Blessing if I ate a living Human.
My Flesh Minion Bats will probably be back tomorrow, I'm expecting their news. Redgaria barely had any news regarding what Humans Kingdoms live around us, as he has been living inside his castle for four hundred years, he's heavily outdated.
Thinking about my former enemy, I went through the castle looking for him.
I found him at the Royal Dining Room enjoying a small meal.
”Ah! Kireina!”
”You should be the one that knows the best about these, right?”
I opened my hand and showed Redgaria four different Shadow Awakening Rings.
The necromancer looked at me with a smug.
”Of course! I am an expert on making these toys… I was actually going to use them to obtain a Full Demon Body and travel to Hel, but my Soul Rank isn't enough”
After he explained to me what his true plans were, I finally understood why he wanted this Forest so much. Using the dormant Spirits, he would increase his Soul Rank to 3, obtain a demon body, travel to Hel and retrieve her sister.
However, I thought that it was a stupid idea from the start.
”Even as a demon you would had been easily killed by the goddess servants”
Redgaria laughed.
”Hahaha… I guess I didn't plan it that far”
”Anyways, come. I will present you a special and very talented couple”
I carried Redgaria with a Cursed Claw as we headed towards the Castle Royal Workshop and Atelier.
There, we were greeted by Kusuri and Kajiya.
I presented them with Redgaria, who they already know of their visit, but never meet with him in person.
Kusuri seemed quite relaxed but Kajiya seemed scared by the necromancer creepy appearance.
Without wasting any more time, Redgaria began to explain to us the steps on making the Shadow Awakening Rings.
It seems that he first creates a basic ring full of intricated magic circuits, he fills it with magic and seal it for a moment. Afterward, he uses his special skill [Forbidden Otherworldly Summoning Magic: Summon Demon Soul]. After obtaining a random soul, he inserts it inside a small Soul Core that it's the black-colored gem that every ring has. He puts a seal with his blood resembling an eye, and insert the gem on the ring.
”And it's done! That's how it is!”
Kusuri and Kajiya were surprised at how easy Redgaria crafted a new ring in front of them. And praised him as their new master.
Redgaria seems to be a very talented Alchemist and Crafter, having countless skills from those classes.
Due to this, I decided to make him an official Royal Alchemist, he will even get paid and all, and even get his own workshop.
The necromancer told me that he would be able to craft even more incredible things if he had enough Magic Cores, his [Recipe Book] skill was on an incredibly high level and contained more than one thousand recipes.
I asked Redgaria if there was a way to eat the rings without receiving the bad effects. He nodded in affirmation.
”Even though it would be impossible to do such a thing in the first place, thanks to your blessing, Kireina, you can eat these souls with your own body instead of your soul, which kills the Demon Soul and extracts its power into your body… The Curse is always left if the Demon dies horribly and in resentment… I could induce a sleep spell on them, and you could easily consume them all!”
”Eh?! R-Really?”
”Hmm! Actually, I already did it with some Rings I had laying around, and got the demons full power without a negative curse… Hahaha”
The skill to make the Demon Souls dormant was named [Forbidden Death Arts: Infinite Sleep], although it sounded quite dangerous, it didn't work on me, it can only affect weaker being than Redgaria. The sleep that this skill induced would only be dispelled by the one that casts it on you, making it extremely powerful in some cases.
Redgaria quickly cast the spell, which created a small gray colored mist that covered all the Rings in my possession.
”It is done! I really want to see what you get; I like to use your body as a guinea pig”
Although I wanted to beat Redgaria to death after saying that, I quickly ate the Rings in one gulp each, however, at the third ring, the system didn't let me eat anymore rings, saying that I reached my limit.
[You learned the following Skills]
[Marchosias Blessing]
[Legion Blessing]
[Abaddon Blessing]
[System Alert]
[You cannot assimilate more Demon Souls, by doing so, your body will deteriorate and ultimately disintegrate]
After telling this to Redgaria, even he was surprised.
”Hmm… Maybe you need to evolve more then, making your body stronger, you will be able to eat more demon souls”
Although I was disappointed by this, it made me want to get stronger even faster. I decided that tomorrow I will be heading towards the fourth and fifth layer of the forest, and explore its secrets.
I went to the Dining Room and had a big dinner with my wives. While eating the delicious preparations, I checked on these Blessings.
[Marchosias Blessing: The blessing given to those who Marchosias deems worthy of his power]
[Primary Effect: ”Rampaging Flaming Demon Wolf”: Grants the power of [Pyrokinesis], being able to generate fire without the use of MP or Stamina, only using your own Mental Energy]
[Second Effect: ”Chimeric Body”: Your body is now a Chimera, which grants you high affinity over the use of Shapeshifting skills, increasing their strength and duration]
[Extra Effect: Increases Speed growth by 30% per level]
[Legion Blessing: The blessing given to fierce warlords whom Legion deems worthy of his power]
[Primary Effect: ”Tyrannical Warlord”: Grants the power to command your servants and slaves with incredible proficiency, increasing their power and morale]
[Secondary Effect: ”Benevolent Kaiser”: Increases the EXP gained of your servants and slaves by 50%]
[Extra Effect: Increases the growth of Strength by 30% per level on all your servants and slaves]
[Abaddon Blessing: The blessing given to the most powerful of demons whom Abaddon deems worthy of his power]
[Primary Effect: ”General of the Empire of Shadows”: Grants an increased affinity towards demonic beings alongside a small Charm effect. Demons are more likely to listen to you]
[Secondary Effect: ”Abyss Key”: Any demon being following your command will have their stats temporarily boosted by 40% if they're fighting a holy being]
[Extra Effect: Increases HP and Defense growth by 20% per level on you and any demon being following you]
I wondered if my wives could get similar benefits, and wanted to give them some dormant Shadow Awakening Rings, but I scratched that idea after thinking that it could have a different effect on them. More experiments need to be done before risking my wives while trying to give them a small boost in power.
After having a hearty dinner, my wives dragged me to our bedroom and we had night activities for the rest of the night. Nesiphae was the most active one, perhaps because of the new energy she got from my blood.
