Custom Made Demon King

Chapter 337 Besieged

The so-called Heaven was actually just a general term. If the Heaven that existed separately like the Abyss was a company, then the Heavens that were distributed across the Infinite Worlds could only be regarded as branch companies. These branch companies would sometimes have their own name according to their size or importance, such as the White City in the Darksiders world...

Roy had now entered Heaven through cracking a Gate of Heaven, which was naturally the Heaven of the Ashan world. Roy did not know if the Heaven here had a separate name, but the humans here had collectively called the place where angels came from ‘Cloud City’.

Perhaps it was to maintain a sense of mystery or not wanting to interfere too much in the human world. In Roy’s impression, angels liked to place their strongholds in every world in a Purgatory Space. Purgatory Spaces were what demons called them. In fact, a so-called Purgatory Space was the middle layer of a main world, an additional space that was different from the main world. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it an ‘inner world’.

The strongholds established by angels in these spaces were the Heavens of these worlds. In these spaces, they were full of the omnipresent power of light. This power was holy light. As Roy was of the dark attribute, he naturally felt very uncomfortable in this place. But this discomfort only lasted for a moment before changing... After entering, Roy felt the holy light strongly repulsing him. He was a dark-attribute demon, so he had eaten the Dark-Dark Fruit, and it had fused well with his body. But because he awakened the frost demon bloodline, he mostly used frost power and did not use dark power much, causing the dark power in his body to often remain dormant. But now, in order to resist the holy light, the dark power in his body began to become abnormally active under the stimulation of the holy light.

This was a very abnormal phenomenon. It was as though the external pressure was too strong, and the internal pressure increased to achieve a balance.

After sensing the activation of his dark power, that incomparable burning feeling on Roy’s body gradually lessened. Most importantly, he felt that his body was evolving once again, and the cells in his body began to transform rapidly under the stimulation of the dark power...

This made him understand why promoting to demon lord required this ritual. It seemed that entering Heaven to resist holy light allowed the dark power in his body to surge and achieve the goal of transforming his body.

If nothing unexpected happened, he would evolve his demon body to a new peak state after completing this promotion ritual and have an immortal body like Kha-Beleth!

Roy did not know where he was now in Heaven. He could not see any angels here at all, but he knew that this situation would not last long. The angels would quickly notice a Gate of Heaven opened with dark power.

Before the angels arrived, he still had some time, so he temporarily put away Frostmourne and took out a new item from the system space.

This thing was... a vambrace!

It looked like a demon claw and extended from the glove to the forearm, but there were two raised sharp blades on the forearm.

Roy took off the left arm piece of the Cold Winter Armor and put the vambrace on his left hand. The vambrace fit nicely with his arm. He stretched his left palm and nodded in satisfaction.

This item was a new piece of equipment that he had created through the system in the past few days in Ur-Hekal. He called it the ‘Red Dragon Emperor’s Gauntlet’!

Yes, he had tried to create a new divine artifact, and the inspiration for this divine artifact was naturally the Red Dragon Emperor’s Gauntlet, one of the Longinus. This divine artifact was very similar to the original Red Dragon Emperor’s Gauntlet, so he did not even bother changing the name.

Red Dragon Emperor’s Gauntlet:

Attributes:

Boost: In the form of exponential growth, it can activate once every ten seconds and double the wielder’s strength. The current limit is six times. The strength increase lasts for one hour. Transfer: You can transfer the increased strength to your companions or weapons. When you transfer to many people, the strength obtained by each person will decrease comparatively.

Roy had spent about 460,000 souls to define the two attributes of this new equipment. This was mainly because Roy had set certain limits. For example, the first ‘Boost’ attribute had a limit of six times, meaning that Roy could complete the strength increase in one minute. Moreover, this increase in strength would be 64 times his normal strength.

This was already a very terrifying number. Any more, and Roy was worried that his body would not be able to withstand it.

In addition, this boost in strength was not permanent and only lasted for an hour. These two restrictions combined allowed Roy to materialize this item with fewer souls.

He was about to become a demon lord soon, so how could he do without one or two divine artifacts? However, Frostmourne mainly focused on weakening enemies, so he naturally made the new divine artifact, the Red Dragon Emperor’s Gauntlet, to strengthen himself.

Of course, this equipment was still not a true divine weapon now, but as long as he had more souls to modify its attributes in the future, he could make this new equipment a true divine artifact...

Roy made the color of the Red Dragon Emperor’s Gauntlet black. This way, it was the same color as the Cold Winter Armor he was wearing. Anyone who did not understand would not realize that the vambrace on his left hand was a separate piece of equipment. The reason why he wanted to make this strength-increasing equipment was that he realized that his strength growth had almost stopped. But he might encounter enemies like the war demon lord in Sheogh in the future. Those demons with powerful physical strength were definitely the type with thick skin and thick flesh. Magic attacks might not work well, so it was a good choice to increase his strength to fight against them.

Although he might not necessarily become hostile with the Shelgo demon lords, there were some things he had to guard against... After putting on the equipment, Roy did not wait long before he saw... dense black dots appearing in the sky in the distance!

Needless to say, these black dots were angels rushing over. Roy counted a bit and felt that there were probably more than two thousand, so he immediately understood that the angels here might have already turned out in full strength!

The black dots were rapidly expanding as the angels quickly flew over. Soon, Roy saw their figures clearly. Similarly, the angels also saw him clearly, and they were immediately shocked and angry.

The temples where the angels lived were actually very far away, but this space was one with them. When Roy opened the Gate of Heaven through dark power, the angels immediately felt a strong dark aura. When they sensed that a spatial channel had opened in this space without authorization, they realized that something big had happened and hurried over to investigate.

In the end, they saw that a demon had appeared in Heaven...

The younger angels were angry and did not know what this demon was doing here. But when the older angels saw Roy alone, their hearts skipped a beat.

There were only two possibilities for a Gate of Heaven to be opened forcibly. One was that the demons had invaded, but now, they could only see one demon, and no more demons were swarming over. This meant that it was the second possibility—this demon was here to complete the demon lord promotion ritual!

This was very bad news. The Heaven of Ashan had been fulfilling the contract established nearly a thousand years ago and participating in the wars between humans and the various races of Ashan. Over the years, the angels had fought titans, dragons, behemoths, and phoenixes. In such a long period of war, even with the help of the Resurrection spell, many of the angels had died.

There were also new angels, and many of them were born with the help of the power of the Dragon of Light, Elrath. But these new angels were often sent to the battlefield before their strength matured.

Then, it became easier to die...

In fact, it was not only angels. In this world where wars broke out all year round, the consumption of the high-level mythical creatures of the other races was also extremely grave, just like the angels.

Under such circumstances, the number of high-level combat forces in the Heaven of Ashan had never been able to increase because there were no outstanding descendants who had grown up. Now, in the entire Heaven, it had been a long time since a six-winged throne had been born. The only four remaining thrones were the ones who survived the battle with the faceless in the Elder Wars. The rest were only four-winged and two-winged angels.

Strictly speaking, the power of Heaven was not comparable to the Sheogh demons because there were more than twelve demon lords imprisoned in Sheogh. This was why the world had been wary of the Sheogh demons escaping. Once these demon lords escaped, it would be exceedingly difficult for the entire world of Ashan to gather the power to resist them...

It had been a long time since Heaven had an angel promote to throne. But now, a new demon was attempting to break through to the lord rank. This contrast made the angels feel extremely heavy-hearted.

But no matter what, preventing this demon from promoting had become the top priority. The angels would kill this demon here at all costs.

When the angels were still some distance away from Roy, they had already spread out and surrounded him. And now, two thousand angels were surrounding Roy...

The pressure was a little too great...

While Roy was thinking, he suddenly heard a cry of surprise. “It’s you?!”

He looked up and found that the one who exclaimed was a two-winged angel. This two-winged angel seemed to be one of the angels who had appeared from the Gate of Heaven when Isabel’s soul was received. After exclaiming, he immediately shouted to the other angels, “Be careful! He’s Demon Osiris!!”

Upon hearing this name, the angels were in an uproar, and their solemn expressions became even heavier.

It seemed that after the alliance army returned in defeat, Roy’s name of Demon Osiris had spread throughout all of Ashan. Even the angels in Heaven knew his demon name...

Without waiting for Roy to sigh, the angels surrounding him attacked. More than two thousand angels raised their angelic swords and pointed them at Roy.

The next moment, countless holy light blasts with incomparably rich holy light instantly burst out with super-intense brightness that could blind people. With a 360-degree attack without any blind spots, they attacked Roy in the center...
