'I'll buy it !' he exclaid.
With plenty of Dark Points to spare, he decided to buy the Symbiotic Suit since it was cheap.
Technically, it wasn't exactly cheap—it cost 500,000 Dark Points, the equivalent of wiping out an entire city of Corrupted.
But even for a monster like him, he wasn't immune to the usual psychological dilemma: the more soone earns, the more they tend to spend.
He told himself it was an investnt, sothing that would make him farm more effectively later. Classic move—just like those people who get an expensive car they can't afford because, hey, it's technically an investnt, right?
With the Symbiotic Suit purchased, he unlocked a new skill. The mont he activated it, a black, sticky substance began to flow over his chest.
It was jet black and had a glossy, elastic appearance, similar to lted rubber. The substance quickly covered his entire body, creating a sleek, shiny look.
As he experinted with the suit, he imagined a design resembling a power armor, and to his delight, the suit perfectly transford to match his vision.
But the suit's features didn't stop there. When he tried releasing his aura, the suit actually filtered it, enhancing his stealth abilities.
This added layer of concealnt would make him even more difficult to detect, further increasing his effectiveness in covert operations.
Determined to maximize its potential, he invested additional skill points to level up the suit. The process was smooth, and as he confird the upgrade, its sleek, black surface beca even more polished and its features more refined.
The updated stats flashed on the interface, revealing huge boosts: heightened stealth capabilities, improved flexibility, and increased durability. The suit now felt even more integrated with his body, its movents smoother and more intuitive.
Next, he tested the suit's flexibility. He tried changing his body shape and size, twisting and bending in various ways.
To his amazent, the suit adapted seamlessly, moving as if it were a natural extension of his body.
After finishing his test, he flew off, locking onto target number 17. He had changed his mind and was now determined to chase it down until he racked up even more Dark Points.
He flapped his wings and hovered above. From his vantage point in the sky, he was glad he'd decided to chase it.
The target began changing direction, gathering more corrupted creatures into its ranks.
'Alright, keep going, he chuckled inwardly as he waited for the numbers to increase.
While waiting, he decided to check his status to gauge just how much stronger he had beco.

Overall, he felt like his power had increased by nearly 50%, which was impressive considering how strong he already was.
But when he asked the system, it inford him that he was still far from achieving Demon King Status.
This realization hit him hard, making him understand that the gap between Demon Lord and Demon King was even greater than the leap from Upper Rank to Demon Lord. The sheer distance between the two ranks made it clear just how much more he had to grow.
'I still need more power,' he muttered to himself.
While in thought, a deep, rumbling noise ca from below. The sound was so powerful it seed to shake the air. He looked down and saw the swarm of creatures beneath him.
To his surprise, they all stopped moving at the sa ti. The once ssy, wriggling mass of monsters was now completely still. It was like soone had hit the pause button.
There was no movent, no sound—just a strange, eerie quiet.
'What's happening?' he muttered, a growing unease settling in. Out of nowhere, he sensed sothing from the sky and felt all his instincts screaming at him to run away.
'Fuck! I need to get out of here!' he exclaid, quickly turning around. His wings flapped, but they felt unusually slow. Before he could move far, a red light shot down from the sky and engulfed everything
'DAMN IT!' Reign shouted in frustration but it was already too late.
The massive red beam of light struck him with overwhelming force.
As it made contact with the ground, it unleashed a blinding explosion of energy, obliterating everything in its path.
The dense swarm of corrupted creatures was instantly incinerated, turning to ash in an instant. Along with them, Reign was caught in the full force of the apocalyptic attack.
In the sky.
"I can't believe I had to co all the way here for such a minor issue," a figure with red skin complained from above the crater.
The creature's six arms moved slowly, and its five eyes looked over the wreckage. Green Blood trickled from its middle eye, which was half-closed from exhaustion.
"If it weren't for that deal they made with humans, I wouldn't even bother helping," he said, clicking his tongue in annoyance. He clearly felt that dealing with this ss was beneath soone of his status and power.
Unfortunately, he had lost a bet with his peers, so he reluctantly rushed to the Western Continent.
As he grumbled, a voice called out from above, "Demon King Vinsh."
Suddenly, the air cracked and shattered like glass. Through the fragnts of the broken space, a small blue creature erged.
"Thank you for assisting us," the small creature said, bowing its head in respect.
"Get out of here. I've done my part of the deal," Vinsh commanded.
The small creature stared at the huge crater, its eyes wide with amazent at the sheer scale of destruction a Demon King could unleash. The devastation was on a whole different level.
"Yes, Demon King Vinsh, but I saw a Demon Lord nearby. I think we should investigate further and make —" The small creature started to speak, but was quickly interrupted.
"Do you think a re Demon Lord could survive that attack?" Vinsh sneered in contempt. "Or are you suggesting my attack was weak?" he added, his voice tinged with anger.
"Of course not. No Demon Lord could withstand your powerful attack," the small creature hurriedly bowed its head, terrified that it might be punished for speaking out of turn.
"Stop wasting my ti and just send back to my territory," Vinsh ordered. For a Demon King like him, a Demon Lord was no different from ordinary demons—soone he could easily eliminate with a flick of his finger if he wished.
Without a word, the small creature opened a portal and guided the Demon King through it.
