Chapter 172: Perfect Demon
“I’m your Master,” Alex said with a faint smile.
He wasn’t saying aningless words, either. After getting a free pass from the soul grave-keeper, Alex beca the sole owner of the Deathwill Castle’s lands. He could use Earth Soul Land’s powers for himself.
The soul grave-keeper wouldn’t use ghouls to assault him. This old man wouldn’t peek or bother Alex at all, as long as he would continue with The Undead Quest. And as Alex made considerable progress here, the soul grave-keeper couldn’t complain, even if Alex stole so of his bones.
“And you live in my lands, which makes you my subject,” Alex smiled wider, looking at the hungry demon.
Of course, Wolfen didn’t look like a demon at all. He looked pretty similar to Ubo right now, which was pretty cute.
He was shocked beyond his imagination, gazing at Alex with trembling and confused eyes.
He soon realized his situation, “I would die… if it weren’t for you.”
Because of his impatience, Wolfen Demon had started killing other hungry demons. His feelings and fear of losing his ambition had allowed him to absorb other demons’ energies, stripping them from their immortality.
It was a particularly good ti because Deathwill Sisters were away… Stella was too lazy to bother about the outside, and Celia had absolutely no ans of looking beyond the castle’s walls.
He beca drunk with power, though. After killing so many of them, Wolfen’s personality started changing significantly. He soon lost his purpose, killing the hungry demon to satiate his killing intent.
If Alex had found him too late, he wouldn’t have been able to have such a talk with him anymore. He would only be able to kill him… And after his death, Wolfen Demon would respawn as the sa insane hungry machine.
Wolfen Demon’s jaw kept parting and closing as he was at the loss of words.
Alex took a seat, “I want to confirm a few things with you… So, I believe that the soul grave-keeper uses hungry demons to loot items… He allows them to level up here so that they soon will be able to drop treasures of the highest quality.
After learning a little about the dungeons, I have an inkling about the soul grave-keeper’s system power…” Alex said, looking straight into Wolfen’s eyes.
He then added, “The residents of the dungeons have no mories. They are existences whose purpose is to fight. They know how to fight and survive… But their mories are empty.
This is similar to the soul grave-keeper’s undead. He removes the soul’s emotions, turning them into undead whose sole purpose is to hunt living beings. Without any emotions or mories, they have no attachnt to the world. It’s easy to control them this way,” Alex explained.
He knew about the first undead and their origins. So might call them good undead as their purposes were quite loyal. The zombie wanted to fulfill his life’s dream, the skeleton protected his country, and the ghost wanted to be faithful to his wife.
They were loyal to their beliefs…
Alex gulped down, “His Earth Soul Land is similar to the dungeon… Isn’t it?”
In Wolfen Demon’s lands, Alex and his beloved could find black wolves. That was all. And then, Bo’s origin was the royal werewolf, yet he had the sa look as those black wolves. Looking at Wolfen Demon, Alex was sure that his theory was correct.
The soul grave-keeper was like Elias Deathwill; his powers worked with the system.
“The respawning monsters started appearing after the system fell to this world… And because you live in his land, the respawning monsters are… your race,” Alex said, “The soul grave-keeper can bring out the mories of every respawning monster. If he can collect all their souls, he can bring back your family.
That’s why you are working for him,” Alex whispered.
The existences such as Elias Deathwill and the King Of Underworld could use the system as their power. However, that was just partially. Otherwise, Elias Deathwill wouldn’t have gotten scared about his lies and empty promises getting exposed.
They all had heavy limits.
“You are right,” Wolfen Demon replied, “My race escaped to his land, hoping to beco stronger under his banner. He didn’t have any objections to us coming here. In fact, he gave us a free hand.
We just had to fight,” Wolfen Demon said.
Alex said, “Oddly similar to the situation we are in now.”
Wolfen nodded, “Does he need people? He can create as many undead as he can nowadays… My family knew that they were experints, but they still hoped to get noticed by him and get more faith.
They fought, fulfilling all his excesses. But in the end, they all died before I could even think for myself,” Wolfen Demon whispered.
Alex didn’t say anything.
This guy’s situation was hard to stomach. Before he grew up, Wolfen Demon’s family fought against other races in the Earth Soul Land. They all died without teaching him, leaving their knowledge behind to a clueless kid.
“It’s over… I killed all hungry demons around…” Wolfen Demon closed his eyes, curling up as the small wolf.
He was, in fact, ready for death.
Alex smiled, “Hey… You can work for -”
It would be great if Alex could recruit Wolfen Demon… That guy had a hungry demon concept that allowed him to beco immortal. He also had the ans to absorb that power, so he would be a helpful guy in his ranks.
However, Alex got stopped by the demonic whirlwind!
A man with pale skin and red eyes ca out from that sea of vile energy. He looked similar to Wolfen Demon, yet he gave off a feeling of perfection.
It was as if he wasn’t just the hungry demon… It was as if he was the one who wielded it properly!
“I thought we would see another general in our ranks… But it turns out that you’ve gone… astray,” the man whispered.
Alex lifted his eyes, “Who are you?”
Their eyes t.
The man brightly smiled, “I used to be a player. Nice to et you, Alexander Deathwill.”
