Custom Made Demon King Chapter 221 – The Embodiment of Identity and Status

Chapter 221 The Embodiment of Identity and Status

Roy had some speculations about what the lower Abyss was like before entering, but when he really arrived, he realized that it was different from what he had imagined.

It was the same scorching heat and the same ash-like world, but many artificial buildings had appeared in the lower Abyss!

As soon as Roy and Julia entered, they saw huge castles in the distance, but these castles were all in the demon-style, in black and scarlet tones, and all of them leaned toward dark trends that were sinister and terrifying.

The lower Abyss was vast, and the space here was much larger than the middle Abyss and did not as oppressive. Roy and Julia randomly chose a direction and flew around three hundred kilometers. They saw four to five demon castles along the way.

A demon castle was just below Roy and Julia’s flying path. When they were about to approach, a demon flew out of the demon castle to meet Roy and Julia.

Roy and Julia saw the two pairs of wings behind the demon from afar and realized that he was a high-rank demon, so they stopped and floated in the air to see what he wanted to do.

After the four-winged demon flew over, he stopped a few tens of meters away from them. After sizing up Roy and Julia, he laughed and said, “A demon and a fallen angel, such a combination is really rare… But you two, this demon castle already has a master, and it’s my territory. If you want to find a place to stay, you’d better go elsewhere to take a look!”

“Huh?” Roy heard the underlying meaning. “Can these demon castles be occupied at

will?”

Hearing Roy’s question, the demon opposite was stunned for a moment before laughing loudly. “Newcomer? No wonder. It seems like you don’t understand the situation of this high-rank Demon World. In this lower Abyss, there are many demon castles like this that have been built by high-rank demons. If you want, you can find a masterless demon castle to stay in. Of course, if you don’t like the style of these castles, you can also build one yourself. Anyway, you’re also a high-rank demon, so it shouldn’t be a problem to build things like this.”

“There’s another way-driving the original master of the demon castle away and living there, right?” Roy asked.

“That’s right!” The demon laughed. “Many demons like to do this because snatching from others is the best to them. But if they want to do this, it depends on their strength!”

The four-winged demon’s words revealed the meaning of a faint threat. It seemed like he was a little afraid that Roy and Julia would snatch his demon castle. After all, Roy and Julia were two high-rank demons, but he was alone. He had not joined any demon lord, so he had no backing behind him. If Roy and Julia really took action to snatch his demon castle, he would most likely be driven away. So although he seemed to be introducing the situation of the lower Abyss to Roy and Julia, he was actually trying to get them to leave as soon as possible.

After hearing his words, Roy could not help but snort and released his magic power pressure!

When magic power flowed out of Roy’s heart and filled the magic power nodes of his entire body, distortions appeared in the surrounding air again. On the surface of Roy’s body were countless small black bolts of lightning, sizzling.

“Is this strength enough?” Roy asked the demon.

“Enough… enough!” After realizing that Roy’s magic power pressure was so powerful, cold sweat broke out on the demon’s forehead. He thought that Roy and Julia were only high-rank demons who had just advanced and that they would not be too powerful. But after Roy’s magic power pressure appeared, he realized that he had misjudged this time. Damn it! How are they new high-rank demons?

Low-rank demons and middle-rank demons could clearly feel that the magic power nature of high-rank demons was completely different from theirs. But it was rather difficult to judge strength between high-rank demons because everyone had the same magic power nature. And usually, no one would maintain a combat state of full magic power. Sometimes, it was not possible to tell who was stronger without fighting.

Although Roy’s power had soared after the fusion, and it was a cinch for him to fight ten ordinary high-rank demons at once, he had not completely become a demon lord yet, and his rank was still at the high-rank demon level. Therefore, as long as he restrained his magic power, it would often cause other high-rank demons to misjudge his strength.

Of course, Roy did not have any intention of pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. The conflicts of interest between high-rank demons were much fewer. Back in the Darksiders world, Roy had cooperated with other high-rank demons, and he did not have the intention of snatching the castle of the demon in front of him, so he simply displayed his strength to make the other party restrain his tone.

Sure enough, after Roy withdrew his magic power pressure, the high-rank demon opposite him appeared much more respectful. Demons used their strength to speak, and the strong could win the respect of other demons wherever they went.

“My name is Lombard!” The demon thumped his chest and introduced himself. “May I know your name?”

“My name is Osiris!” Roy nodded and introduced himself.

“You’re very strong. I can’t imagine that it’s actually your first time in the lower Abyss!” Lombard said solemnly. “I take back what I said earlier. If you want my castle, I’ll give it to you without a word. But to be honest, a powerful high-rank demon like you may need a bigger castle to match your status!” “In this lower Abyss, are there differences in status among high-rank demons?” Roy asked.

“Of course. The differences in status are mainly reflected in the place of residence!” Lombard said. “Demons have always been like this. Only the strongest can have the largest demon castles! This is an embodiment of identity. Moreover, the larger the demon castle, the larger the territory, and the more the resources.”

“Oh? Is that so?” Roy was immediately interested. “Where is the largest demon castle in the lower Abyss now?”

However, what Roy did not expect was that Lombard shook his head. “There are several demon castles among the largest ones. Of course, I know where they are, but I don’t advise you to snatch them because the high-rank demons living there are all followers of powerful demon lords. The demon castles they live in also need to serve the demon lords. If you snatch their demon castles, you have to consider whether you will anger the demon lords behind them.”

“I see…” Roy nodded thoughtfully.

Since that was the case, Roy decided not to ask further and flew away with Julia and Fat Tiger. He had already decided not to consider the scale and just find a demon castle that looked pleasing to the eye. He would first understand the situation of the lower Abyss. After all, he reckoned that he would not be able to stay here for long because he might become a demon lord soon.

Seeing Roy fly away, Lombard breathed a sigh of relief. The magic power pressure that Roy released just now caused him immense pressure. It was unwise to have such a strong high-rank demon be at odds with him. Fortunately, the other party did not seem to fancy his demon castle.

“But… why does the name Osiris sound so familiar?” Lombard scratched his chin with his sharp nails and frowned while pondering. “I seem to have heard this name somewhere…”

After recalling for a while, Lombard suddenly remembered!

“Damn it. Didn’t that guy Xeron keep asking about this name some time ago?” Lombard asked in surprise. “He also informed many high-rank demons and asked them to bring his soul if they encountered a demon with this name… But Xeron said that he was merely a low-rank demon. Did he get it wrong? Or is it just the same name?

“Forget it. I don’t care. Anyway, Xeron doesn’t have any friendship with me!” After thinking for a while, Lombard turned around and returned to his demon castle…
