Behind him loomed an enormous black dragon, its scarlet eyes blazing with fury, each gleam a silent, deadly warning. The beast's gaze alone was enough to freeze the demon in his tracks, its feral rage promising a swift and brutal end for daring to touch what he shouldn't.
That feeling is like looking at food.
"Silver Dream Demon!"
I recognized the type of demon immediately.
It looked like a gloomy, handsome guy with horns, bat wings, and animal legs beneath.
Really cool for some humans.
But I didn't like it. This guy had almost no use other than being lecherous, molesting, and raping.
In this world, Cambions—half-fiends born from unions between demons and mortals—are both enticing and unnerving, embodying the sinful allure and terrifying power of their infernal parentage. These creatures come into being not from love but from raw, primal impulses, often through coercion or trickery, as mortals recklessly entangle themselves with forbidden forces. Mortals, after all, can get freaky with anyone—whether it's consensual or not.
Cambions bear unmistakable marks of their fiendish heritage: horns that curl or spike from their brows, leathery wings that unfurl from their backs, and some even carry animalistic features—clawed hands, slitted eyes, or scaled skin. While many possess a dark beauty that can captivate or ensnare, they are just torturers or lackeys of mighty demons.
"Dragon!"
The Cambion turned pale with fright. Weren't there only two beautiful females waiting to be pampered here?
Why is there a black dragon?!
Without saying a word, he spread his wings, intending to flee into the summoning circle.
But I didn't give him the chance.
With one paw, I slammed him to the ground.
The silver Cambion tried to attack me with his weapons and claws, but his strength was pitifully weak.
It could hardly leave a scratch on my body.
Elise, standing to the side, looked at the demon mockingly.
This strength can't even defeat her lord and still dares to harbor thoughts about her.
"There should be no big difference between this guy eating and not eating!" I said in the common language without concealment.
"Don't eat me! I'm useful! Very useful!"
The Silver Dream Demon displayed a remarkable ability to survive, shedding any pretense of integrity or dignity—nothing mattered to Abyssal Demons.
"I can sneak into human society for you to find any treasure you need, beautiful females, and..."
But I remained unmoved, and my gaze grew even more dangerous.
"Dear Lord Black Dragon, I am a demon under the Great Demon Lord Hongyan Maharaja! If you kill me, then..."
I didn't waste any more time. Exerting force, I crushed him completely, blood and bones spilling from between my claws.
With my telepathic abilities, I could sense the emotions of beings below my mental strength.
Except for the first sentence, everything this guy said was a lie.
Reasonably speaking, if he were human and had such proficiency in infiltration, he might have been a good deal for demons like torturers.
This guy also had the same abilities as an incubus: he could confuse humans and had a sharp intellect, capable of being a decent counselor.
But I was a black dragon, a different kind altogether. I had no use for human conspiracies or tricks.
I set the meatloaf-like remains of the Silver Cambion beside me, intending to try my luck with the next feast.
Then I looked at Elise and said, "Continue!"
Elise was shocked. She had thought the Black Dragon summoned the demon for other reasons.
Unexpectedly, it was just for eating. Thinking of the last time, Quasimit Elise felt a little terrified.
The strange thing was that after Elise performed several summons in a row, she failed to summon again.
"Lord, there seems to be nothing else here..." Just as Elise was about to speak, a huge arm suddenly protruded from the magic circle.
It was an arm covered in long gray hairs, with claws that gleamed coldly.
The massive arm fumbled around as if searching for something.
Elise and Winnie hurriedly dodged to avoid it.
"Huey obviously came in from here just now—why did he disappear?!"
A rough female voice came from the magic circle.
I watched the arm curiously.
Judging by its size, the demon on the other side was enormous.
The arm brushed against the pile of flesh and blood, pausing in disbelief.
"Ahhhh!!! Who is it?! Who dares to kill my plaything?!"
A terrifying roar erupted from the magic circle.
Immediately, a massive creature squeezed out.
Nearly nine meters tall, with a comically obese shape, it resembled a mixture of an ape and a wild boar.
Behind its bloated body was a pair of disproportionately small wings, and gray body hair covered it entirely.
"Convict Soul Demon?"
My eyes lit up with joy.
The Soul Demon bellowed furiously, planning to find the enemy responsible for her dear Silver Dream Demon's demise.
Our eyes met.
Her gaze was astonished, while mine brimmed with delight.
"Dragon, did you kill my dearest Huey?"
Looking at the mangled body beneath my claws, she asked.
"You could say that," I admitted readily.
"Damn it!" The Judgment Soul Demon, as a large demon, was not afraid of a black dragon.
That silver dream demon had brought her so much happiness, that wonderful body now reduced to a pile of mud.
"Roar~"
The Judgment Soul Demon let out a piercing roar.
Immediately, she flapped two funny wings and rushed directly toward me.
As a soul demon, she had experienced many wars.
She had faced an adult black dragon in a foreign war. At that time, her strength had been almost comparable to that of her opponent, but some dragon language magic had been particularly troublesome. She still knew the methods of black dragons.
Although the appearance of this black dragon was somewhat different, she was confident in herself and believed that even if she could not defeat this black dragon, she would definitely not lose.
I became interested, and I also stretched out my dragon claws to meet the sharp claws of the soul demon.
Puff~
The sharp claws of the soul demon and my dragon claws clashed.
"Roar~"
The Judgment Soul Demon took a few steps back, glancing down at her claws.
The upper claws were completely severed.
My dragon claws were not damaged at all.
The Soul Demon looked at me solemnly. This black dragon was very strange.
As a soul demon, she was most proud of her strength and melee attacks.
But the black dragon in front of her was stronger, and the destructive power of its dragon claws was also greater than hers.
This wasn't going to be fun!
The Judgment Soul Demon hadn't expected to meet such a strange black dragon while searching for her friend.
"You are very good!"
I looked at the scratches on my dragon claw and spoke.
Although it hadn't broken through the defense, the dragon claw was a relatively hard part of my body, and it was actually scratched.
"You don't look like a black dragon!" The Judgment Soul Demon spoke seriously.
"You don't seem to be worried about your own safety at all?" I found her calm demeanor strange.
"Death is death. Whether you kill me or eat me, it's all the same. Anyway, I have enjoyed everything that should be enjoyed. Not to mention, you may not even be able to kill me!" The Judgment Soul Demon spoke indifferently.
Her desire to kill and her physical desires had already been satisfied. Even if she died, it wasn't as though she would truly die.
"Then let's see if I can kill you!"
A fierce light flashed in my eyes.
{Rupture!}
Immediately, hundreds of stone thorns appeared within a range of more than 50 meters beneath the soul demon's feet.
The Judgment Soul Demon tried to fly, but the rupture skill still had a slowing effect.
Her poor little wings flapped a few times but failed to lift her.
She was pushed upward by the stone thorns.
At that moment, I had already appeared behind her, and my strong dragon claws were aimed at the soul demon's heart.
The Judgment Soul Demon was so frightened that veins bulged all over her body. Just as my claws were about to land, the Judgment Soul Demon suddenly disappeared.
My dragon claw struck empty air.
I carefully sensed the vibration sources around me and memorized the vibration characteristics of the Judgment Soul Demon.
Then, I turned toward a corner more than 50 meters away. The Judgment Soul Demon reappeared there.
I looked at her in amazement. Was this a flash-type skill?
This gal actually flashed—careless!
"You bastard!"
Just as the Judgment Soul Demon was about to say something, I directly used fire magic.
"Burst Flame Dance!"
Boom~
Thirteen enormous fire dragons flew toward the Soul Demon. Meanwhile, I took the opportunity to observe her carefully.
The Judgment Soul Demon cried out as she was flung into the air, crashing through the top floor of the main hall and into the sky.
But the fire dragons kept pursuing her, and compared to them, the Judgment Soul Demon's speed was too slow.
She gritted her teeth, preparing to resist my fire magic.
Then, a blue lightning breath streaked toward her from behind the fire dragons.
The Soul Demon had no choice but to use the same short-distance teleportation skill to evade the black dragon's attack.
As I pursued her from a distance, I finally saw the Judgment Soul Demon's casting motion for her short-distance teleportation skill.
She pressed her right paw on the center of her forehead before disappearing.
Under my perception, I found that the Judgment Soul Demon had reappeared in the palace, channeling magic into the magic circle to stabilize it.
It seemed she intended to escape through the magic circle.
"It's so loud, it's no wonder this gal is so confident!"
But I wasn't going to give her the chance. I quickly flew into the hall.
"Fear Light..."
The Judgment Soul Demon was about to launch her most powerful magic to repel me temporarily when my piercing dragon roar disrupted the flow of magic in her body.
As a result, the spell failed to materialize.
Puff~
My dragon claw pierced into the soul demon's body from behind, crushing her heart.
"Now teleport again!"
The Judgment Soul Demon's incredible vitality prevented her from dying immediately.
"You bastard, how can you be a black dragon!" Bright red blood dripped from the Judgment Soul Demon's mouth.
Looking at her in that pitiful state, an idea formed in my mind.
I spat out a twisted seed and pushed it into her body through the wound.
"What are you doing?" The Judgment Soul Demon felt uneasy as she saw the twisted seed.
Once the seed had entered her body, I withdrew my dragon claw.
Under her powerful self-healing ability, the wounds on her body began to close.
For demons like her, as long as they weren't killed outright, their injuries would slowly recover.
"What did you put inside me?" The Judgment Soul Demon asked, alarmed.
"Nothing much, just a small gift. Of course, you can also try to escape!" I replied.
"I..." The Judgment Soul Demon ignored me and attempted to move toward the magic circle.
Suddenly, intense pain surged through her entire body, from head to toe.
The Soul Demon had a premonition that if she really continued to walk in, something very terrible would happen.
"You are using this as a means of control!" As a Soul Demon, she was naturally knowledgeable. It was something similar to her true name.
After all, demons did a lot of this kind of thing.
I stopped urging the twisted seeds in the Soul Demon.
"You can think so," I said indifferently.
"What do you want?" The Judgment Soul Demon calmed down, seeing that I didn't kill her immediately.
Although she was not afraid of death, she would not seek death deliberately if she could stay alive. She didn't want to be reborn in the Abyss again, as doing so would cause her to lose a lot.
"You will become my subordinate! Hunt other demons for me! Of course, you can choose to refuse," I said indifferently.
"Let me be your subordinate? Don't you know that a powerful demon like me—"
"Then you can die!" I stretched out my dragon claws and cut off one of her arms before the Judgment Soul Demon could finish speaking. I then began to activate the twisted seeds.
The Judgment Soul Demon immediately felt the danger. She had let down her vigilance just now and failed to evade this blow. Seeing my serious look, she hastily said,
"Wait! I agree!"
"Hehe, you really don't cry until you see the coffin," I sneered.
The Judgment Soul Demon didn't fully understand what I meant, but she realized I was mocking her.
"Your first task is to hunt another Soul Demon, or you can replace it with yourself!" I said, patting her forehead with the severed arm.
"Understood!"
Strangely, the Judgment Soul Demon didn't seem to harbor much hatred for the black dragon in front of her, which felt abnormal.
"What's your name?" I asked casually.
"Debbie," said the Soul Demon.
"What?"
Stupid?
I looked at the Soul Demon, who resembled both a pig and a monkey, and nodded. Indeed, she seemed like an idiot to me.
Something like this being called Debbie? However, when I thought of the misunderstanding I'd had when asking Shadar's name, I probably understood. It seems that being stupid wasn't entirely stupid.
"Do you want to make a contract?" The Soul Demon Judge asked sarcastically.
"Then let's make a contract." Although I was confident in the Seed of Distortion, I decided to add another layer of assurance.
"You..." Debbie, the Soul Demon Judge, suddenly felt as if she had shot herself in the foot.
Soon, the two of us made a contract. It stipulated that Debbie, the Soul Demon, must catch a demon that satisfied me every month.
I released control over the Soul Demon as appropriate.
Afterward, the Judgment Soul Demon walked into the magic circle, clutching her severed arm. For her, this experience was very bizarre.
The moment the magic circle disappeared, I closed my eyes and began to sense the other party through the soul chain I had just established with the Soul Demon.
Unfortunately, I couldn't sense her—it was like a cloud of fog.
I then tried to perceive the Seed of Distortion. Vaguely, I could sense it, but the connection was unclear due to the interplanetary distance.
After all, there was an unknown expanse between the main material plane, the outer planes, and the Abyss.
However, I found I could control the twisted seed and activate it at any time, ensuring I could kill her if necessary.
This way, I wouldn't fear her breaking the agreement.
For me, planting the twisted seed in the Judgment Soul Demon was more cost-effective than eating her directly.
Although eating her might have granted me new talents, it wouldn't be easy to encounter such a powerful demon again in the future.
The Soul Demon was like a seed, and I hoped this demon seed could bear countless devil fruits, letting me eat my fill!
Just in case, I also kept an arm from her body.
If the Soul Demon died or didn't return, I should still be able to acquire her traits through this arm.
After all, the telepathy talent I gained from the horned demon Idris last time came from eating part of its body.
At the same time, I was filled with curiosity about the outer planes. After all, the highest of high the Seven Heavens, the Nine Hells, and lowest of low the endless layers of the Abyss were all part of this star multiverse.
