The Demon King Mode System

CHAPTER 16: THE SMELL OF THE SOUL

Roy came to the conclusion that the failure to increase magic energy was most likely related to the Soul Swallowing Addiction.

He suspected that demons liked to devour souls most likely because it would increase their magic power. Otherwise, the demons might not be infatuated with them just because of their taste.

So after his thoughts flowed, he took out one of his remaining souls.

"Should I try it? Come to think of it, I've invested souls in the system for my modification and haven't tasted it." Is it really good for the devil?

The soul Roy put out was the smallest. Saliva dripped from his mouth involuntarily as he stared at the soul. At the same time, extreme desires arose, such as how he saw delicious food in his time as a human. He can't wait to eat it!

Roy swallowed his saliva and could not wait to throw this ball of light into his mouth.

Soul the size of bean seeds melted — no, it disappeared — immediately after coming into contact with its saliva! Demonic saliva could actually rot souls!

At the same time, an indescribable overwhelming taste came from Roy's tongue. His entire body and mind seemed extremely excited. It seemed like his body was frantically releasing dopamine, making his body feel lighter!

This feeling lasted quite a long time before slowly disappearing. Roy slowly recovered while continuing to reminisce about the feelings just now. The more he thought about the rest of the flavor, the more his brain signaled that he wanted more!

Roy could hardly resist taking on the other souls. Fortunately, he had a bit of self-control and forced himself to resist this urge.

What a close call! It's really addictive! Roy touched his chest, feeling a lingering fear after he stopped his impulsive thirst.

After calming down, he discovered that most of the soul seemed to have disappeared, and only a small part turned into a special feeling, like flowing heat. It spread to all parts of his body first and then gathered again. Finally, it flowed into his heart and stopped there.

" Is this the power of the flowing heat magic?" Roy experienced it carefully. He was unsure, so he simply opened the system interface to check his stats.

Roy had used his magic energy when he used Psychokinesis, but he now discovered that the magic energy attribute counter was now 0 (+0. 3)!

"What does this mean? Is the 0.3 increase in magic energy something I slowly recover myself, or is it caused by the consumption of that soul?" shit makes me even more confused

If it was the latter, it meant that a devouring soul could actually increase its magic energy. This was not necessarily good news for Roy as it meant he could not just rely on the system to strengthen himself but still need to maintain the growth of his magic energy, which means he needs more souls!

This can't continue. I must understand the reason behind the increase in magic energy and then think of a way to fix it! Roy thought. If not, I will be poor all my life!

Putting aside the attributes for a while, Roy opened a new blank page and started drawing again.

For Roy, the use of souls in the system was much more efficient than devouring them directly to increase his magic energy attribute. They are both soul-consuming, but the system can produce more things, like the huge panties Roy is now drawing!

"Yes, big panties! You may not believe, that the devil wears pants" but all this time Roy has been naked!

Now, he finally had the advantage of making some clothes to cover himself. It was fine when he was a child, but he did not feel that way anymore now that his body had become bigger! The coldness between his crotches was not very good.

Roy set the color of his underwear to match the color of his skin. It is made of pure cotton, breathable and dry. Roy was finally relieved.

Although he did not know the prospect of applying this iron rod, protecting it was every man's instinct, and the devil was no exception …

This time, Roy flapped his demonic wings and flew, venturing from the sky above.

"How wide is this abyss of Hell?" Roy doesn't know. He had walked hundreds of kilometers, but in reality, he was afraid that he had not walked out of the horizon he saw, let alone to a lower level than the Abyss.

Now that he could hover in the air, he saw many sights that he could not see from the ground. Hmm, and the enemy.

Unlike being on land, Roy's enemies while flying are bird-type demons and winged insect-type demons. However, Roy could now handle it easily. The T-Virus allowed Roy's power and speed attributes to increase slowly over time. However, these flying-type demons did not have much power, so when he encountered these demons, Roy could destroy them easily. Roy's tail and sharp claws could instantly rip apart their bodies as soon as he caught them.

At the same time, Roy also learned the hunting method of the flying demons. When prey appeared on the ground, he would immediately dive down, and he could even directly overwhelm some larger sized demons with the impact of a dive.

In order to verify his powers, Roy consciously chooses an adult demon as his hunting target. Fighting a low-level demon was much more interesting than simply oppressing a weak one, and it was helpful to practice his fighting skills.

Compared to flying demons, Roy had greater power, and he had the advantage of flying when facing powerful demons on the ground. As a result, some of the wiser demons chose to avoid Roy after he had managed to kill a number of low-level demons!

Roy is now a tyrant of the devil. He might even be able to get rid of Spider Queen Araniya if he came back now …

However, Roy does not re-elect because killing Araniya is not attractive to him. This was because Roy discovered one thing when the number of souls he had increased — the quality of the soul had nothing to do with the strength of the creature. He had hunted a total of twenty-three top low rank demons, but their souls were low quality souls to the system without exception. The only difference was that they were bigger and had higher soul power.

In addition, Roy no longer needed to search for caves to avoid danger because now he was stronger. Therefore, even if he came back and killed Araniya, he would gain nothing but a low-quality soul. It would take a lot of time and give the area he had explored to fly back hundreds of kilometers. It was not cost-effective but he thought about it.

After all, he would probably remain at the top level of the Abyss for some time, and he could take the time to take revenge on Araniya for chasing after him …

Life in this low-level Abyss was monotonous and boring. It was the same for almost all the demons living in this world. Their time was spent fighting and hunting every day. Roy tried to adapt to it, but it was still unbearable after all this time. He felt that he would go crazy if he continued like this. He even thought of ‘whether he should leave one or two souls to devour every day’ as a hobby.

However, one day, while flying through the air and waiting for the enemy to meet him, Roy suddenly finds dozens of demons gathered on the ground.

There was no conflict even though they were together, and they were actually desperately running in the same direction!

This doesn't just happen on the ground. Even those in the air were actually flapping their wings desperately in the same direction.

This scene reminded Roy of the time he hatched, so he immediately reacted to what had happened. The devil will only act like this under special circumstances.

Roy, bored out of his mind, changes direction and follows them.

After flying some distance away, he was approaching a certain distance, and the indescribable scent enamored Roy!

This scent was similar to the soul Roy had eaten, but not as rich, and it was impossible to spread so far.

"Could this be a high-quality soul scent?"Roy realized.

He excitedly rushed there…
