Exactly . This spider demon in front of Roy is his first ‘neighbor’, Araniya, in the top Abyss!
Back then, Roy was just a low-level demon. He can't beat Araniya and is almost eaten. But unexpectedly, luck had turned around. Roy has become a high-level middle demon and rose to become a high-level demon, but Araniya has just been promoted to a mid-level demon.
Through spiritual connection, Roy learns the whole story of Fat Tiger. He looked at Araniya and was slightly dumbfounded. He did not expect if Araniya appeared in front of him again, in fact he planned to be ‘neighbor’ again. Moreover, he was so unlucky that the location he had chosen for his nest was in the gold mine. Roy doesn't know what to say.
What a fateful relationship. The Abyss was vast, yet he had met the same demon on two different levels. Roy doesn't even know how unlikely it is, but when it does, he and Araniya meet again.
Roy recognizes Araniya because the overall change is not too big even though it has advanced. But Araniya doesn't recognize Roy. Roy looks very different from when he was a little red-skinned demon. Although Araniya had a deep impression of the little devil suddenly growing a pair of demon wings in the lava river, he was unable to relate it to Roy's current appearance.
Roy stood up and walked towards Araniya. Araniya hurriedly lowered his body to declare his surrender when he saw Roy approaching. He already knew that this hellhound, who had bitten him and dragged him here, was the servant of this ice demon. Judging from this, these ice demons were stronger than hellhounds. Araniya felt he was no match for her, and he was a spider demon. Demons of his race were cunning and dangerous, and they would not be as rash and reckless as demons who only knew how to use their muscles. So seeing that the situation was not right, he immediately relented.
Actually Araniya is quite depressed. Even though he was only a low-level demon in the upper Abyss, he was still an existence that stood at the top. Not many demons could defeat him, and he could get the prey he wanted as he wanted. Life is very satisfying. But unexpectedly, after he got to the middle Abyss and promoted with great difficulty, he was suddenly at the bottom of the food chain, and anyone could bully him.
Although he knew that this situation was the same for many demons, his psychological differences were still huge, and it was difficult for him to adapt to this sudden change.
However, the demon's life was difficult, and he had to adapt to it no matter how difficult it was. Therefore, when Roy came to him, he not only lowered his body but also tried to please him. “Your Majesty, Araniya greets you! Forgive my ignorance, but I really don't remember where I met you. But since you know me, please let me go this time because we are acquaintances! ”
While talking, he straightened his body and said frankly, “If you need to vent, I will do my best to serve you!”
These words darkened Roy's face. Which of your eyes see that I need to shed? Also, why are you so confident with your hairy body covered in black hair?
“Diam . Say another word, and I'll tear you apart! ” Roy felt disgusted, so he just shouted coldly.
Fat Tiger growled cooperatively at the side, his three heads and six eyes staring intently at Araniya's neck.
“Iya!” Araniya. He saw that Roy was unhappy and quickly lowered his head.
“When did you get to this Abyss level?” Roy asked coldly. “A-about two months ago!” Araniya answered honestly, completely without the arrogance he used to have in the upper Abyss.
Two months ago was the time I just got back. He measured it and asked, “That's weird. When you are a low level demon, you have the form of a Spider Demon. Why do you still look like this after promoting to become a mid-level demon? “
“Your Majesty, you may not know that the spider demon bloodline has always been one of the more powerful lineages in the Abyss ..” replied Araniya. “If there is no stronger bloodline, then the demons born are usually in the form of spider demons. Even while promoting, most of them awakened the spider demon bloodline, so the demons of our race generally did not change their appearance too much after being born.
“The lineage of spider demons is very strong?” Roy touched his devil horn. “So, your race bloodline is relatively pure, and it should be easier for you to become a high-level demon?”
“No, quite the opposite!” Araniya was very sad. “Most spider demons will probably stop at mid-level demons in their lives because, although the spider demon bloodline is strong and easily filtered, the hunting soul is not a spider demon power. So it is very difficult to match other demons in terms of magic power growth .. “
Roy was curious, then he asked in detail and finally understood Araniya's intentions.
Moreover, spider demons were unable to use common elemental magic. In addition to spider web techniques, their skills are curse magic and poison magic. This spell has a deficiency of — this spell tends to weaken others. They were not a type of destructive magic that could cause large-scale damage, so spider demons could not obtain large amounts of souls.
In addition, spider demons also have the biggest weakness – that is slackers! They can remain motionless in their cobwebs for a month or two, willing to wait for prey to enter their cobwebs, but they do not want to move their legs and run further to hunt…
Therefore, spider demons were relatively slow in gaining souls. In the face of the ever-increasing demand for magic power, they felt that they could not keep up with it, and promoting being a high-level demon would definitely be a long and difficult path.
Take Roy for example. Even though he had a cheat, his magic power increased to five thousand. Not only did he get the help of the Magic Energy Growth Potion, but he also might have used over ten thousand souls. Had it been another demon, their soul consumption would have been at least 70% to 80% more. The spider demon had no other way of gaining so many souls other than relying on the accumulation of time.
This was why demons were like the famous fire demons in the Abyss. Their magic power can cause great damage, and it is easier for them to harvest souls and promote. Compared to fire demons, demons from other races were slower in gaining souls.
You may not be able to tell the difference from Araniya's appearance, but he is almost eighty years old. He was able to promote medium rank demons completely as it piled up little by little over the years …
As for why he appeared in Roy's gold mine, it was because he had passed through and happened to find this gold mine a few days ago. However, he had entered from the other side of the gold mine, so Fat Tiger did not find him. Spider demons were all good at curse spells, so he also noticed the curse of misfortune on gold ore. At that time, Araniya did not pay much attention. After all, for demons, gold and what not, other than some demons who occasionally used it to make decorations, were useless. But after Araniya left, he suddenly thought about it and came back.
As Roy thought, Araniya suddenly wondered if he could use this gold.
In fact, as a spider demon, Araniya rarely responds to calls to go to other worlds because the way of hunting souls in other worlds is not much different from in the Abyss, Araniya plans to use the gold ore as bait.
He had no intention of using the curse of misfortune on it. This curse of misfortune was useless to him. He only planned to put the gold in the cobwebs in order to more easily defeat the greedy humans.
While talking to him, Roy discovers that Araniya's thinking is indeed very clear. He even secretly observes Roy, but he doesn't remember who Roy is.
After speaking with Araniya for a while, Roy suddenly asked, “Have you heard about the Devil's Bible?”
This question was very sudden, and Araniya was stunned for a moment before she nodded. “I know a little!”
Roy just asked casually, but he didn't expect Araniya to really know, so he immediately told him to tell him.
“This is something mentioned in the memory of my inheritance. It was said that it was something in a deeper abyss, and its contents were recorded on the seven sealed inscriptions! ” Said Araniya. “It is said that sealed steles are objects left behind by the Seven Deadly Sin Demon Kings, and there is still a mystical power on them. It was too old-fashioned, and it was long impossible to verify. Your Majesty, why do you ask? ”
“Nothing . I only heard legends like this by chance, so I just asked! ” Roy says slowly. “In retrospect, you even know such things. Your legacy memories seem to be very complete! “
Araniya puffed out his chest and said proudly, “Because the memory legacy about us demon spiders comes from the Lolth Spider Queen! He was one of the demon lords that existed in the Abyss and the greatest existence of the spider demon! ”
Roy was stunned when he heard this and quickly asked, “Wait! Whatdidyou say? The Queen of Lolth Spiders? Are you sure it's right? Isn't she .. isn't she the goddess of the dark elves? How did the Spider Queen become a demon? ”
“The previous body of Queen Lolth was the devil!” Araniya's voice grew louder when it came to the pride of his race. “Only did she use a special method to transform into a half demon half elf, so she could only stay in another world and could not return to the abyss. The legends of the dark elves are wrong. Queen Lolth's real body was a demon, not a dark elf! ”
“Is that so?”
Roy had not expected to hear something like this from Araniya. In fact, Roy knew that there was a Spider Queen. He could not help it because he was too famous. But she had always thought that she was only the goddess of the dark elves, and she had never linked her to the spider demon of the Abyss.
It was hard for the spider demon to promote, and Araniya said it personally. However, it made sense that Spider Queen Lolth actually had a body that resembled a half-human half-demon body …
