Custom Made Demon King

Chapter 126 Old Friend

As Roy began continuously compressing his magic power, his body gradually showed some special changes.

The most notable thing was his feet. Roy did not know what happened to them, but every step Roy took now left a black frost footprint the same size as his feet on the ground!

In particular, when he walked on relatively hot ground, the frost footprints would evaporate from the ground heat and cause a mist to curl up.

This phenomenon was very strange because Roy was certain that he had not deliberately focused his magic power on his feet. But even so, when he did not control it while walking, it caused a series of frost footprints. It usually took five to six minutes before they slowly dissipated.

It was as though it was... instinctual. Roy studied it and felt that it was probably related to his frost demon bloodline. Perhaps this change was brought about by the gradually condensing magic power stimulating his demon bloodline. And it seemed like as his magic power continued to compress, the frost footprints left behind would become more obvious and last longer.

In addition to the frost footprints, another special change was that Roy found himself emanating a sense of pressure.

This pressure was exactly the same as what he felt on Xeron back then, and it seemed to have the effect of deterring and suppressing low-level demons. Before, Roy had always thought that this pressure came from the bloodline of high-rank demons, but now that he had this pressure, he realized that he was wrong. This pressure was actually caused by stronger and denser magic power!

This made Roy even more certain that he was on the right path to promoting to high-rank demon...

The pressure emanating from him was still relatively weak because his magic power had yet to be condensed completely. Therefore, the other middle-rank demons in the same level of the Abyss could not feel it, but the low-rank demons in the upper Abyss would probably feel it clearly.

During the next two months, Roy spent most of his time in his lair, constantly compressing and tempering his magic power. This was a relatively long-term process because it would become more and more difficult during the latter half. Roy did not dare to slack off, so he gave the task of mining the entire gold mine to Fat Tiger.

During these two months, souls had been teleporting to Roy from time to time. Needless to say, they must have teleported from the Pirates of the Caribbean world due to someone dying near the gold with the Osiris Mark.

In just two months, Roy collected more than seventy such souls. Among them, there was a wave of fifteen souls teleporting over together. Who knew if people were fighting over the gold...

Roy’s attribute for the Osiris Mark was to teleport souls near the gold. This meant that even if people did not die because of the gold’s curse of misfortune, as long as they died within the range of the gold, the Osiris Mark would capture the souls.

Therefore, even though Roy had spent five thousand souls to create the Osiris Mark, it was very worthwhile since he would obtain life-long benefits from this investment.

Now that he saw benefits, Roy naturally could not let it go. He regarded the huge gold mine as his private property and had Fat Tiger mine it every day. Poor Fat Tiger had completely turned into a coolie during this time, going out early and returning late every day. Not only did he have to exhaust himself to drag back the heavy gold ore, but he also had to constantly squeeze out his magic power and spit out hellfire to smelt the demon gold.

Fortunately, Roy felt sorry for him. Every time he returned, Roy prepared a feast for him. Not only did he eat to his fill, but he also had a lot of souls to replenish his magic power. From time to time, when Roy stopped cultivating, he would run around with Fat Tiger and give him a massage...

Over the past two months, not only had Roy’s magic power tempering been fruitful, but even Fat Tiger had become much stronger. In the system interface, Fat Tiger’s attributes had improved a lot, and he was already at the level of a middle-middle-rank demon.

In fact, due to Fat Tiger being born from Gabriel’s soul fragment, the holy souls of angels would give Fat Tiger the greatest enhancements! Ordinary souls had a much smaller enhancement effect, and he was only able to grow to this extent thanks to Roy’s continuous feeding.

Fat Tiger’s body was now over 2.6 meters long, and he was about 1.7 meters tall when standing on the ground. The bulging muscles all over his body, his sharp fangs and claws that had become sharper from digging ores, and the hell flames that he emitted occasionally made him look magnificent. Any demon that saw Fat Tiger would think that he was one of the elite and outstanding hellhounds.

On this day, Fat Tiger followed his usual routine. He first dragged back a cart full of ore back from the gold mine and piled it in the lair. Then he bit the ropes of the small mine cart that Roy made and dragged it back to the gold mine.

However, before Fat Tiger could continue digging the gold ore with his claws, his three heads sniffed curiously at the same time.

Fat Tiger’s sense of smell was very sensitive, and he found a strange smell floating in the air of the mine. Not only did this scent smell of sulfur and fire, but it also had the smell of blood.

When Fat Tiger realized that another demon had appeared in the mine, he immediately put his guard up, bent down, sniffed the source of the smell, and quietly looked for it.

Hellhounds had always been in the Abyss, and they were existences like hunters. Their bodies and foot pads made them very good at sneak attacks. Even though Fat Tiger looked huge, he could make no sounds when he moved. As long as the demon that entered the mine was not a hellhound, it would be difficult for the other party to discover him. Yes, Fat Tiger planned to drive this demon away for his Master Roy first.

However, when Fat Tiger found the intruding demon, he discovered that it was bigger than him!

This demon was a huge spider demon that was about three meters tall. Its upper body was that of a female demon, and she had no demon horns, but there was a pair of huge pincers on both sides of her mouth. Her stomach was a round and fat spider abdomen, and on her abdomen was a pattern that looked like a demon face, supported by eight legs full of long hair.

When Fat Tiger found this spider demon, he found that she was actually building a nest. The end of her abdomen was constantly spraying out a transparent liquid, and after the liquid touched the air, it gradually turned into white spider silks. The spider demon used these spider silks to weave a large spiderweb between the stalactites and stalagmites in a cave.

Seeing this, Fat Tiger was furious. Not only did Roy treat the gold mine as his private property, but even Fat Tiger was no exception. Now someone actually dared to build a nest in his territory?!

Fat Tiger suddenly sprang out from the dark. One of his heads opened its mouth wide, and black hellfire immediately sprayed onto the spider demon!

The moment the hellfire touched the spiderweb, it immediately ignited, and the spider demon on it fell with a loud thud. She screamed and rolled on the ground in an attempt to extinguish the flames on her. But how could hellfire be so easy to extinguish? It kept burning her body and making crackles.

“Ah!!!” The spider demon screamed while trying to stand up after realizing that she could not extinguish the flames. She opened her mouth, and dark green venom sprayed at Fat Tiger.

Fat Tiger leaped lightly to avoid the enemy’s venom. But something went wrong. Fat Tiger did not expect the spot he landed to have some webs left on the ground, which might have been from when this spider demon was building her nest. As soon as Fat Tiger stepped on it, he became stuck and stopped his movements! Taking advantage of this moment, the spider demon’s abdomen sprayed out the transparent liquid. The liquid became a huge white spiderweb in the air and went toward Fat Tiger.

Fat Tiger was trapped and could not move for a while. The spider demon was still burning with hell flames, but she was moving her legs and rushing up. Her entire body had a burnt smell from the hellfire scorching her.

The spider demon looked at Fat Tiger with hatred. She raised a sharp long leg and prepared to kill Fat Tiger.

However, right at this moment, a burst of cold air suddenly spread. Fat Tiger spat out a large amount of frost at spiderweb under him, instantly freezing the spiderweb, and then he shook it violently, shattering the spiderweb like glass! The next second, Fat Tiger jumped up fiercely and actually landed on the neck of the spider demon’s upper body. Then he opened a mouth, and one of his heads bit the spider demon’s neck.

With a loud crash, the two huge creatures fell onto the ground. Fat Tiger landed on all fours, and his strength completely overwhelmed the spider demon!

His sharp teeth bit into the spider demon’s neck but failed to kill her in one shot. After landing, Fat Tiger wanted to shake his head violently and tear her neck open. But somehow, under the crisis of survival, this spider demon accurately predicted the directions that Fat Tiger’s head would swing in. The eight legs under her started moving quickly so that her body moved along with Fat Tiger, making it difficult for Fat Tiger to exert his strength.

“Spare me! I was wrong! I’ll leave now! Please don’t kill me!” the spider demon wailed as she moved.

It was impossible for her not to beg for mercy. This spider demon had just promoted to middle-rank demon. Although she was huge, she found that this smaller hellhound was even stronger than her when she confronted him. Moreover, her vital point was controlled, so how could she not beg for mercy?

Upon hearing the spider demon begging for mercy, Fat Tiger thought for a while before stepping back and dragging the spider demon toward the entrance of the gold mine. When he moved, the spider demon could only move along to prevent herself from being injured.

Under normal circumstances, Fat Tiger would not kill a creature on his own accord because the soul would become exposed after he killed it, and he would not devour the soul without Roy’s command. Therefore, in a situation like this, Fat Tiger would choose to hand it over to Roy to have him take care of it. Fat Tiger bit a spider demon bigger than him, left the gold mine, and headed toward Roy’s lair while dragging the spider.

When he arrived at the lair, Roy was a little stunned at this strange scene. He did not expect that Fat Tiger could hunt such a large prey alone.

“I beg you. Please let me go!” Fat Tiger was biting the spider demon’s neck, so she was facing down and could not see the situation in front of her. However, she never stopped begging. It was rather rare for a demon to beg like this in the Abyss. After all, begging meant giving in, and this was not the style of demons.

But when the voice fell into Roy’s ears, Roy felt that it was vaguely familiar, so he got Fat Tiger to let go of the spider demon.

When the spider demon raised her head, Roy found her even more familiar after looking at the human part of the spider demon.

“You’re... Araniya?” Roy thought for a while before finally calling out the spider demon’s name.

The spider demon was desperately pressing on her wounds to stop the bleeding. After hearing Roy’s words, she was stunned. She looked carefully at Roy and asked in confusion, “I am Araniya, but who are you? Have we met?”
