Custom Made Demon King

Chapter 168 Special Soul

Before coming to this Darksiders world from the Abyss, Roy had dug out a lot of demon gold and threw it into the system space. If he only took out a bit, he could bury people! No matter what, demon gold was still gold. The shiny golden color would not lie. Roy was now a nouveau riche among demons. He used the countless gold bars to draw back Avarice, who wanted to escape.

The goblin stared greedily at the gold bars continuously falling from Roy’s hands. The sweet, crisp sound kept striking his eardrums. He wanted to escape, but his body walked obediently toward Roy step by step. He was Avarice, one of the Seven Deadly Sins, so he naturally could not avoid this natural weakness.

Just as Avarice was about to approach Roy, Julia suddenly appeared behind him. She raised her sword and pierced through Avarice’s body from his shoulder, nailing him to the ground.

Avarice screamed, but his eyes were still fixed on the pile of gold in front of Roy.

Roy watched Julia restrain Avarice and stopped releasing the demon gold. But unexpectedly, when the sound of the gold falling stopped, Avarice screamed at the top of his lungs, “Don’t stop! Don’t stop! More, I want more gold!”

Roy was speechless. This guy really wanted money...

Julia was holding the hilt of her sword with both hands and stepping on Avarice’s body with one foot. When she heard this, she snorted coldly and activated her magic power. Black flames suddenly rose from the sword, and under the high temperature of the flames, Avarice immediately let out a blood-curdling scream as the flesh on his wound began to sizzle.

But this was not the worst. The worst part was that after the flesh on Avarice’s wound was burned, it quickly regenerated and then continued to be burned, falling into a cycle of torture!

This was because Julia’s hellfire had the very special ‘recovery’ attribute. Previously, Julia had used these flames to repair her damaged armor. Now, she was using it on Avarice as a kind of torture.

Looking at the scene of Julia using the flames, Roy did not know why, but a word suddenly came to mind-nirvana! Julia’s flames felt very similar to the phoenix’s flames of nirvana. But these flames were black hellfire. When Samael transformed and shaped her body, did he use materials from the Black Phoenix?

Thoughts were whirling in Roy’s mind, but he did not stop his hand movements. With a wave of his hand, he put the gold piled on the ground back into the system space.

This gold might be useful in other worlds in the future, so Roy did not want to discard it here.

However... what Roy did not expect was that his action had an unintended consequence!

The moment the gold disappeared, Avarice, who was still screaming, suddenly froze. The next second, his anger burst out, and a powerful force suddenly erupted from his skinny body, knocking Julia over. Julia’s hell flames were still hanging on his shoulder, but his feet stomped the ground, and he pounced at Roy ferociously!

“Gold! Where did you put my gold?!”

Roy was caught off guard as his face greeted Avarice’s pounce. As Avarice screamed, he used his sharp claws to tear at Roy’s face frantically. But because Roy was wearing the helmet of Cold Winter Armor on his head, Avarice did not cause him any harm. It only made Roy’s hard helmet creak and have sparks fly everywhere.

He seemed to have regarded the pile of gold that Roy threw out as his own, but when Roy took it back, he immediately exploded!

Roy, who came back to his senses, was also furious. He reached out and grabbed Avarice’s face, but then he found that Avarice was shockingly strong at this moment! Under the struggle, it was difficult for Roy to grasp him.

The next second, Roy immediately activated Bloodlust. Red light spread over his body, and the muscles on his arm swelled. Under the strength increase of Bloodlust, Roy pinched Avarice’s face with his left hand and suspended him in the air, while the claw of his right hand, which was holding Avarice’s demon horn, used great force...

With a crack, Roy broke off one of Avarice’s demon horns!

After breaking off Avarice’s demon horn, Roy had still not vented his anger. He looked at Avarice, who was constantly waving his claws to try to scratch him, and sneered. He stretched his hand out and broke off his other demon horn!

Generally speaking, demon horns had a thick layer of cuticles that constantly piled up. The horns usually did not have too many sensory nerves, but this was only under normal circumstances. Roy’s brutal actions of breaking off Avarice’s demon horns also affected the roots of the horns. Avarice screamed in pain as black blood kept flowing out from his forehead.

Seeing Avarice’s miserable state, Roy finally felt relieved. After using Psychokinesis to choke Avarice in the air, he released his hand and took a few steps back.

As he retreated, Julia appeared from behind. This time, she did not show any mercy. The sharp sword in her hand flashed with cold light, and with a swift slash, she split Avarice in half!

Julia was petite and light-weight, so it was often easy for her to lose when facing opponents with immense strength. And it was not just her. Almost all angels were similar to her. In battles, angels usually used skills and magic power to defeat their opponents, and they rarely fought their opponents with strength, so Julia was extremely angry when Avarice sent her flying twice. She felt that it was slightly embarrassing in front of Roy, her partner, so she directly killed Avarice.

Roy had stepped back and gave way just now because he had noticed Julia’s thoughts and gave her a chance to salvage her face...

After being split in half, Avarice finally stopped struggling. However, his body was clearly dead, but his bright red eyes were still staring intently at Roy, as though he wanted to bring Roy, the enemy who had taken away his gold, into Hell together.

Dear Heavens, that gold was clearly Roy’s...

Julia swung the longsword in her hand and shook off the black blood beads on the sword. Then she walked up to Roy and said, “Did you notice? This guy’s strength fluctuated a lot...” “Yes!” Roy nodded. “It seems I stimulated him when I put away the gold.” “I don’t know much about the Seven Deadly Sins, but...” Julia said thoughtfully. “From Avarice’s situation, certain emotions seem to increase their strength?”

In Fury’s words, the Seven Deadly Sins that escaped from the Charred Council’s prison were not demons but aggregations of specific negative emotional forces, and they existed in the form of souls. After escaping from the prison and coming to the human world, they chose different bodies to possess. Avarice had possessed this goblin, but because goblins did not know how to use magic power, which was the case in many worlds where goblins existed, in the battle with Roy and Julia, this goblin had not used magic power to attack.

However, without using magic, it had immense strength and agility, especially the last burst that forced Roy to use Bloodlust to hold on to it.

After a brief exchange with Julia, Roy immediately understood that perhaps the source of the power of the Seven Deadly Sins was the corresponding seven negative emotions. Once they produced or absorbed these negative emotions from other places, it was possible to increase their strength.

“We have to hurry!” Roy said. “Now that this world is in the End War, the negative emotions born under the stimulation of the war are definitely very strong. This is when the Seven Deadly Sins are absorbing power. No wonder they come to the human world. If we ignore them or put it off for too long, their strength might increase to the point where we can’t handle them...”

Julia nodded in agreement. She knew very well that as long as creatures had intelligence, they would inevitably produce all kinds of emotions. This point was the same for humans, angels, and demons. Happiness, pleasure, fear, greed, anger, and so on, without these emotions, intelligent creatures could not be called intelligent creatures, and they could only be regarded as puppets.

Precisely because of this, even though the population of the humans in this world had been greatly reduced, the Seven Deadly Sins could still obtain and absorb these negative emotions from angels or demons, thereby increasing their strength and breaking through their shackles to become more powerful existences. At that time, it would be troublesome.

After talking for a while, Roy found that despite the goblin being dead, Avarice’s soul had not been exposed.

After thinking about it, Roy took out the Talisman of Sin and activated it with magic power.

A dazzling light flashed and turned into a bolt of lightning that connected to the goblin. Under the power of this Talisman of Sin, Avarice, one of the Seven Deadly Sins, was finally pulled out of the body!

It was a special soul that was constantly distorting, and countless faces emerged. Every face that appeared on the soul had a greedy expression, but this scene only lasted for a moment before the Talisman of Sin drew out the soul.

“Ah-!” Roy did not know whether it was an illusion or not, but the Talisman of Sin even let out a satisfied sigh.

Seeing this, Roy suddenly had a thought and stored the Talisman of Sin into the system space. He wanted to see what Avarice’s soul was in the system...
