The Demon King Mode System
CHAPTER 81: EYE OF NIGHTMARE !!
If necessary, Roy can even fire kinesis light waves with his Sharingan…
If he wanted to see through the illusion and not be affected by it, he should have the ability to see and distinguish reality from illusion. Roy directs his demonic gaze to the system design panel.
Then he drew a blood-red pentagram in his pupil to tell the difference between using eye techniques and not using them.
Satan, of course, uses the pentagram for the show …
Roy named his eye technique ‘Eyes of Nightmare’!
Nightmare Eyes
Definition 1: Insights. It can see and destroy illusions, distinguishing between reality and illusion.
Definition 2: Fear. Enemies who look directly into these eyes will have an inexplicable fear emerge from the bottom of their hearts.
Fearing there wasn't enough of a soul, Roy only made two definitions for Nightmare Eyes for now. Definition 1 is naturally designed to deal with illusory demons, but definition 2 is the inspiration of nightmare demons.
During his time in the middle Abyss, Roy has been in contact with some nightmare demons. The demons with demon horns on their heads and burning with fire were medium-level demons that resembled horses. Although high-level demons often used them as mounts, it was wrong to underestimate them because this nightmare demon was one of the more powerful mid-level demons in the middle Abyss.
Through observation, Roy discovers that the growth rate of magic power from these nightmare demons is generally relatively fast. This was because this demon had a nightmare bloodline. Their magic power circuit would form a special magic power that caused others to feel fear. The moment they killed the enemy with this magic power, the soul they obtained would be bigger than usual!
Roy had seen the nightmare demon hunt and compared the souls they harvested with him. If it was only one or two souls, then it could be described as coincidental. But after making many comparisons, Roy realized that the soul they obtained was indeed bigger when hunting the same monster.
At the time, in order to verify his guess, Roy had specifically found a nightmare demon to fight, but Roy did not win. He discovered that the longer he fought with the nightmare demon, the more disappointed he would be, feeling that the nightmare demon in front of him was extremely powerful and terrifying!
After that, Roy regained consciousness. This fear effect with the effect of intense suggestion might be something worthy of reference. This fear effect allowed him to gain a soul with more negative emotions in his hunt in the future!
This thought made Roy understand why Spider Queen Araniya continued to babble and threaten him endlessly. It seemed like Araniya wanted to obtain a better and more terrifying soul from him.
This kind of threat was not only used by Araniya. Many demons like to roar loudly towards their opponents and expose their fangs and sharp claws when fighting, which is an act of threat.
The effect of simply using language to scare the enemy is not very good because it requires repeated threats to cause fear in them. But many criminals die from talking too much! The fear effect of nightmare demons was much better, as it secretly affected the opponent during the battle.
Therefore, when Roy thought of using this nightmare demon ability as a reference, his first thought was to obtain the force field of fear, which was also commonly known as the circle of fear. This way, as long as he stood there, he could influence his opponent without saying anything and also use it on many other targets at the same time!
But those are still those words. There may not be enough souls at this time. The effect of such a circle of fear should be emitted all the time. And he had to stand in the crowd to make others feel the effects of that fear and terror. In addition, the radiation range is very small. Furthermore, Roy still had to deal with the illusionary demon. So, in the end, he could only give up on this idea for a while and turn the light circle effect into a one-to-one eye technique to use first.
When he had enough souls in the future, it would not be too late to change him.
Of course, fear often comes with the imagination of others going wild. In a sense, this is a kind of illusion. However, he could not create and guide the opponent to imagine a terrifying scene, and he could only let the opponent's imagination run wild to produce psychological fear itself.
Roy temporarily defined his Eyes of Nightmare with these two attributes. When he had enough souls in the future, he would continue to add more powerful abilities.
For example, he would be able to see the ability of the opponent's magic power circuit or directly see the opponent's weakness. Or even like Mystic Eyes of Death Perception and see the opponent's death line and cut the death line to kill the opponent directly. Of course, Roy salivated a lot over this ability, but at the same time, the stronger the ability, the more souls it would consume. So he could only treat them as goals that should be fought for for now.
After finishing his setup, Roy thought about it and added special light and shadow effects to Eyes of Nightmare. This way, when Roy uses the eye technique, his eyes will glow with a blood red radiance, making him look even scarier and exacerbating the fears of his opponents.
When Roy chooses to save and materialize, he discovers that the number of souls he currently has is not enough, and he can only complete 75%. Having no choice, he could only bring Fat Tiger to the fire salamander residence to hunt. After killing two hundred of them, the Nightmare Eyes finally materialized.
The souls of more than a thousand fire salamanders were equivalent to three hundred low-quality normal souls. Unexpectedly, this eye technique was rather expensive…
Fat Tiger looked up. He initially watches over his master, but he is frightened by Roy's sudden change and whines!
Roy looked down and looked at Fat Tiger closely. The three heads of Fat Tiger also looked at Roy in the eyes. After a while, Fat Tiger's tail stopped swaying and subconsciously sandwiched between his hind legs.
Not only that, there were several different scenes that appeared on the three heads of Fat Tiger.
All these scenes have the same theme — hunger and cold!
In the delusions engendered by this fear, ‘mimpi’ Fat Tiger took him to a world of snow and ice, and his master was lost. An inexplicable fear invaded Fat Tiger, so he ran away, wanting to find a trace of his master, feeling that he could only dispel his anxiety by being by his master's side, he got nothing. He did not meet any living beings or even plants. There was only a vast expanse of white snow around him!
As the days passed, the scenery around him did not change at all. Fat Tiger was gradually unable to run anymore, and his stomach had long since sunk, becoming thin like a stick, as he had not eaten anything for a week, and his master was still missing.
As he thought about it, Fat Tiger suddenly felt extremely persecuted. He looked up at the sky and howled loudly!
Aw! (Master!!!)
“Maying!” (No way!)
“Weak?” (Fat Tigers?)
Roy had no idea what scene came to Fat Tiger's mind. He only stared at Fat Tiger for a moment before Fat Tiger became restless and then frightened. Fat Tiger suddenly raised all three of his heads and wailed with tears in his eyes.
“F *ck! What did this boy see? ” Roy shocked. He hurriedly withdrew his magic power and awakened Fat Tiger.
Fat Tiger regained his senses and discovered that the surrounding icy and snowy environment had disappeared, and his master appeared in front of him again, so he whined, pouncing on Roy, he said, and licked Roy with his three tongues excitedly.
“Hey what are you doing?!” Roy quickly pushes him away, only to find Fat Tiger becoming so attached!
Roy had no idea what Fat Tiger was looking at now and why he had become like this…
Roy was very sorry to try it on Fat Tiger…
Over the next few days, Roy changes the subject of his experiment, using fire salamanders and some mid-level demons he encounters to test his Eyes of Nightmare.
He realized that the lower the intelligence of the creature, the worse the fear effect of Eyes of Nightmare. This was because the chaotic-headed creature had a simpler imagination of what fear was. Fire salamanders like this. Roy did not even need to use his Eyes of Nightmare to inflict fear on them. They would escape while facing a powerful enemy and feel the threat of death.
For beings with high intelligence, the fear effect of Eyes of Nightmare has room to play its part.
When using the eye technique, Roy's eyes would flash with a bloody light. Moreover, as his head moved back and forth, a faint trace of light would be left in the air, making his opponent subconsciously look into his eyes and become affected by the effects of fear.
They will passively have things that cross their minds that they find hard to accept and feel scary. And for the demons, the most frightening thing was to face a stronger opponent, so they would think that Roy looked terrifying and extremely strong. It was undeniable that they would become limited while fighting, causing them to be unable to show their usual strength and allowing Roy to fight more comfortably.
Of course, there are higher-willed demons that are very difficult to influence with this fear effect …
Overall, Roy was quite satisfied with the effects of fear because he had already ascertained that the soul he gained after killing those exposed to fear had indeed increased in volume and soul power!
This meant Roy would receive this fear bonus while hunting souls in the future, turning the original soul force of 1 into 1. 1 or even 1. 2! This way, he would slowly accumulate a small amount to obtain a large sum. When he had enough of a soul, he could turn this fear effect into a halo that radiated around him and even further amplify this fear effect.
With this in mind, Roy could not help but think of a question. Will I become a dreadlord in the future?
Hmm, no. It was hard to tell what a dreadlord was at the moment. Now, I might be more like Protoss like Zeratul…
