Chapter 165 (2/2)
“It’s Death Lion Axe Technique,” said Vigaro “At thebecause of my inexperience and lack of Mana, but I’ll catch up to you soon”
“Yeah, I’ forward to it,” said Borkus
Meanwhile, Basdia atching the fired-up conversation between the two men
“They asked me to come to make sure that nearby monsters wouldn’t interfere, but… I wasn’t needed, was I? Well, I got to see so that I was just killing time while Jadal comforted Mother”
As a warrior, she didn’t dislike heavy scenes like this, and she was satisfied at having been able to witness a battle between two exceptional fighters
And then she grouped up with the, which had been alht
Incidentally, she had beco Vandalieu in her drea for her advancement to Rank 10
While Borkus and Vigaro engaged in their fired-up conversation, Vandalieu was inside a certain Dungeon
The Palace of hell
This was the ninety-nine-floor, high-difficulty Dungeon in the Majin nation As a palace, its interior structure was like the inside of so, but the environs that were made of ice
Other than the monsters that were simply animals with Demon-like features, like Devil Octopuses and Deeon were all actual De, condensed masses of contaminated Mana
Monsters like Lesser Dereat physical ability and ic But the weakest Deeon were Rank 7 Greater Demons, Lava Demons and Frost Demons
They were sly and highly capable in coic, and their most prominent feature was that they possessed nureat varieties, such as spells that were cast with Chant Revocation, special venoreat regenerative abilities and the ability to temporarily become invisible
And as Vandalieu and his coeon, there were even roups of Rank 9 Demon Generals and Rank 10 Archdemons led by a Rank 11 Demon Lord
And although the materials that could be taken froh monetary value, almost none of them were suitable for consueon had to bring their own food
Because of this Dungeon’s nature, even hly capable in combat and could acquire Jobs that allowed theemonster numbers in the shallow and middle floors
That was supposed to have been the case, but… Vandalieu casually walked down a corridor whose floor and walls were made of polished stone
“Hhts so far,” he said, looking at the Deuards
They weren’t monsters tamed by the tamers of the Majin nation; they were ordinary eon
Despite that, they showed no signs of intending to attack Vandalieu or those following behind him
“Perhaps they have been charmed by you, just like the Undead we encountered in our first Dungeon, Bocchan?” suggested Sa the Dungeon that he and Vandalieu went into during their hidden journey out of the Mirg shi+eld-nation
“It seeuidance,” said Vandalieu, looking at the Demons
He extended a hand, and the Dehtly There was fear in their reptile-like eyes
“It seems that I’m scary to them,” Vandalieu said
The Demons feared Vandalieu so eon monsters to attack and impede the advancement of intruders
“Monsters of Dungeons are scared, huh This would be unthinkable in any ordinary Dungeon…”
The eons were influenced by the Dungeons to eliminate intruders and cooperate with other monsters to some extent to achieve this task
But unlike eons, eons did not control their monsters’ minds completely
There were cases where ly powerful eneood compatibility with the monsters
But there were almost no such cases for Demons
They were beings created when corrupted Mana gathered to foreorganisms, but Demons did not
They had no li forever without sleeping, eating or reproducing It wasn’t that they couldn’t do these, but they were nothing more than leisure activities for them
Thus, it wasn’t rare for Demons to simply throw their lives away for fun The er this tendency was They didn’t value their lives, surrender or try to flee from battle
The reason they couldn’t be tamed by those ere not Majin, who possessed special characteristics as a race, was because of these un-organism-like values
“Hht any Demon-type monsters before,” said Vandalieu
“Though this is but a guess, perhaps it is because you possess the Degested
“That’s probably it,” Godwin said, hitting the palm of his hand with the fist of his other “It’s said that De created the in fear of the increased presence of the Des different fro Guduranis, they won’t obey you That ht be the state that they’re in”
“I see That ht be how it is,” said Vandalieu The Demons didn’t confirm or deny Godwin’s theory, but he was convinced
“I ale Lesser Demon… and yet, Archdemons are as meek as cats before His Majesty Perhaps I should say that it is to be expected, but…” The ‘Liberating Princess Knight’ Iris Bearheart, for fatal wounds by transforh
She had transforh the ‘Blood Cocoon’ ritual carried out by Godwin, but less than a year had passed since then, so she couldn’t handle Demons well like natural-born Majin yet
“Iris… that is so that even nor to be disappointed about,” said the spirit of Iris’s father George, who resided in the dark ic sword, the Orichalcum holy sword Nemesis Bell that had been ree
