During the Dark Ages

The undeads throat was quickly reduced to ashes and it's head fell to to floor slightly charred.

[Your [Hell Fire] grows stronger.]

I quickly burned all the corpses which have kind of become a habit now.

'This has become way easier since I became a demon.' I thought while staring at the ashes of the undeads.

' Ever since I became an denon, killing undeads have become really easy, I wonder if it's because I'm tier 3 now. I know from the description that demons are tier 3 creatures so does that make undeads tier 2 and thralls tier 1.' I thought while rubbing my chin. I then proceeded to search the place and I found a few weapons lying on the ground but I was disinterested. I walked around and soon reached the workshop, it had a furnace, molds, hammers and tongs and they looked to be in good condition and free of blood stains which means the undeads didn't get in here. I noticed a black door in the corner of the room so I walked over and open it.

"Bingo." Inside the room were many silver ingots of what seemed to be steel and iron. Now all I needed was a way to carry them back to Santuary. I looked around but I only found the 4 large boxes that, I assume, they came in, I guess I'll have to use them. First I loaded the boxes with ingots, then I melted a hole in the wall since I'd rather not walk all the way back to the entrance and then I took a box and flew into the sky. The box was really heavy but I managed to lift it and fly just fine. I soon reached the mansion and place the box at the entrance and as I was going to fly off again I heard someone scream.

"Ahhhhhhhhh, there's a monster at the gate." Shouted a female voice.

'Monster where?!' I wondered a bit panicked at how I wasn't able to sense it.

'Oh she's talking about me isn't she.' It only took me a few seconds to realize that she was talking about me as I was still in my Demon form.

"Calm the fuck down lady." I said as I turned around and I saw Claire standing there.

"Claire, what are you doing at the gate?" I asked

"How do you know my name mon.....wait Colin." Claire said as she got a good look at my face.

"Yeah." I said and deactivated [Demon Transformation] since I figured it would be easier to talk with a human appearance.

"What the fuck was that, Colin? What the fuck are you? And I want the truth." Claire said as she stared at me.

"And why would I do that?" I asked with a raised eyebrow and Claire glared at me. This continued for awhile and I just sighed. I don't have time for this.

"I'm a demon." I said simply and I saw her expression turned into one of shock and it was a bit amusing.

"Demon, like a creature from hell." Claire said and took a step back.

"Yeah but I'm not from hell."

"Then how did you become a demon." Claire said skeptically

"I inhaled a lot of that stuff." I said while pointing at the low hanging dark miasma that refused to enter the [Holy Territory] or more accurately couldn't.

"What do you mean you inhaled that stuff? It turns people into zomb- I mean undeads not demons." Claire said

"It seems Synthia taught you the correct name." I said

"Goddammit Colin answer my question correctly or I swear I'll....." She said while clenching her fists. What's wrong with her?

"Or you'll what?" I was curious what she would do. She suddenly dashed out of the gate towards me fast, atleast faster than what a normal human was supposed to be. She threw a punch at my face and I easily dodged which seemed to shock her as she almost fell to the ground. She was fast but she wasn't even as fast as when I was a halfling much less now that I was a demon. She steadied herself and then she charged at me again and I just stood there not moving and a beam of golden light suddenly appeared between us.

"What's going on here?" Asked a calm female voice.
