Custom Made Demon King Chapter 229 – Gathering of the Dragon Balls

Chapter 229 Gathering of the Dragon Balls

Back then, Roy was only a middle-rank demon driven by Edrach, but when meeting again after a few years, Roy was already on the same level as Edrach. Edrach could even vaguely feel that Roy’s strength was about the same as his, so how could he not be surprised?

Roy knew that his rapid growth that surpassed other demons would inevitably attract attention, but he did not panic. “It’s nothing. In the previous world I went to, I encountered Demon King Samael and Mother Lilith!”

That’s right. Roy had passed the buck. Anyway, he had indeed encountered these two demon kings, but as for what happened after meeting them, it was all for Edrach’s imagination to make up. As expected, Edrach’s eyes widened when he heard Roy’s words. He said in surprise and envy, “No wonder you grew so fast! It seems like you obtained many benefits from the two demon kings!”

Roy allowed him to imagine and changed the topic. “Where are you going?”

With that, he looked at Edrach’s dragon mount and asked curiously, “Is that a real dragon?”

Roy had already noticed that when facing Fat Tiger’s fierce gaze, Edrach’s black dragon mount looked very lifeless. It had no reaction, as though Fat Tiger did not exist.

“It’s not a real dragon!” Edrach looked back. “It’s a puppet dragon made of Abyss metal but with the soul of a black dragon added.”

“Can I take a look?” Roy asked.

Edrach did not object and gestured for him to go ahead. Roy walked forward and stood in front of the puppet dragon to observe carefully.

He stretched out his finger and tapped the skin of the puppet dragon. Sure enough, he heard a ‘hollow’ sound, indicating that there was no real body inside the dragon, so he could not help but say, “Your puppet dragon has very good craftsmanship!”

Indeed, in Roy’s Radiation Perception, he could not tell that the puppet dragon was fake at all. The powerful radiation emanating from the puppet dragon meant that it contained an immense amount of energy. When he looked closer, he felt that the puppet dragon was lifelike. And just from its appearance, it appeared no different from a real dragon.

“It’s very simple. You can just skin a dragon!” Edrach said proudly. “In order to hunt this black dragon, I spent a lot of effort!”

Roy nodded. He found that demons seemed to like creatures like black dragons. After Lilith tempted Abaddon’s soul into falling, she did not create a fallen angel body for him but directly stuffed his soul into a black dragon’s body. Edrach’s mount was like this now. Perhaps black dragons had good affinity with dark power, and demons were often connected to these dark creatures.

Living black dragons could not enter the Abyss. Just like how demons would cause world power to repulse them if they went to other worlds, creatures from other worlds would also be repulsed when they entered the Abyss. Moreover, this repulsive force would be even stronger. The Abyss had existed for many years, and many other creatures had strayed into the Abyss during this period. However, the chances of these creatures being able to escape alive were extremely low because once they entered the Abyss, not only would they be repulsed, but they would also have to face countless demons who had heard about them. Only a few could luckily escape back. Furthermore, these survivors had also spread some superficial situations about the Abyss. After they were frightened and terrified, their descriptions were often utterly ridiculous and excessive, making everyone’s understanding of the Abyss specious.

Edrach’s black dragon mount was made of Abyss metal, and it was covered with the black dragon’s skin on the outside. Then, with the soul of the black dragon as energy, it could perfectly drive this puppet body. After death, creatures would no longer be repulsed in the Abyss, and Edrach could ride it everywhere.

Roy looked back at Fat Tiger and then at the black puppet dragon. He had to say that despite there being not much difference in size, the dragon still looked more awesome.

Edrach walked over and introduced it to Roy. “Although your hellhound is very good, it feels strange riding a dog… If you want to get a dragon mount like this, you can come and find me. I’ll help you make it. This black dragon had just entered adolescence, and it was only about four hundred years old, so it wasn’t difficult to deal with. But it would be even better if you could get a thousand-year-old dragon. The puppet dragon created will be stronger.”

“Let’s talk about it after I get one!” Roy said. He knew that thousand-year-old dragons were middle-aged dragons, and they were the backbone of the dragon race. Dragons of this level were probably the limit that high-rank demons could handle. Those two to three-thousand-year-old or even five to six thousand-year-old dragons were already considered ancient dragons. Even demon lords had to be careful with such ancient dragons, let alone high-rank demons.

Similar to angels and demons, dragons, titans, and elves were all powerful races, especially dragons. Unlike demons who needed to devour souls to grow, the power of dragons grew with age. They had infinite potential since their birth. The older they grew, the more potential they could display. They were an enviable and gifted race.

Roy was planning to go to the Heroes of Might and Magic world of Ashan again. In that world, there were many dragons, and he might encounter them at any time, so it was necessary to know some information about dragons in advance.

“Can the souls of dragons be eaten?” Roy asked Edrach.

“Of course, but they don’t taste good!” Edrach shook his head. “The thing these giant reptiles do the most in their lives is sleep. Their feelings and emotions are far from complex, and they aren’t beneficial to the growth of magic power. I think that human souls are the most delicious. The shorter the lifespan, the more likely they are to fear death…”

While speaking, Edrach thought of something and stretched out his tongue to lick his sharp teeth, as though he was reminiscing about a taste.

Then he said, “Actually, if you want the dragon souls, you don’t have to hunt them personally. No matter what, these huge reptiles are still very powerful, and you would need to take some risk to deal with them. If you really want them, I can recommend you to Lord Rogeros. He has many dragon souls in his hands!”

Roy finally understood Edrach’s meaning. He was trying to win him over. No wonder this guy is chatting with me so politely.

Perhaps Edrach was surprised by Roy’s growth speed and felt that Roy had great potential, so he wanted to recommend him to Demon Lord Rogeros. This way, Roy and him would truly be ‘demons on the same side’, but he did not know that Roy’s growth speed was faster than he had imagined. Roy was already climbing toward the demon lord level, so he had no interest in joining a demon lord.

Roy shook his head decisively. “Forget it. I have to hunt the dragon souls myself to have a sense of accomplishment, right?”

Edrach understood Roy’s meaning and was stunned for a moment. He did not say anything, but his expression was clearly a bit ugly.

But Roy did not care what he thought. He returned to Fat Tiger’s side and jumped onto his back. “Okay, I should go now. Goodbye!”

“Wait!” Edrach hurriedly said. “The place I’m currently living in is Despair Castle. If you change your mind, you can contact me through the projection pool! Lord Rogeros is currently at war with another demon lord, and we need a lot of manpower. Believe me. Lord Rogeros will not treat you unfairly!”

“Okay, I’ll remember!” Roy nodded and did not say anything else. He patted Fat Tiger, who turned around to run back.

On the way back, Roy turned his head to look behind him. Although he did not see Edrach, Roy smiled and whispered, “Interesting. Looks like there are conflicts between demon lords. I wonder who the demon lord fighting with Rogeros is.”

Fat Tiger could not be bothered to fly for more than two hundred kilometers, so he ran back all the way. But on the way, Roy suddenly felt something and quickly got Fat Tiger to stop.

From the system space, Roy took out the Dragon Ball Radar he had created and saw that seven light dots had gathered on the radar, and they were flashing rhythmically and making sounds.

“Did someone gather the Dragon Balls so quickly?” Roy frowned. He thought that it might have taken some time.

The gathering of the Dragon Balls meant that the resonance signal had reached its maximum. As long as Roy found an Abyss altar, he could adjust the frequency according to this signal and easily locate the Heroes of Might and Magic world. Then he could input magic power into the magic formation on the altar and open a Gate of the Abyss that led to the Heroes of Might and Magic world.

Moreover, this Gate of the Abyss would directly open where the Dragon Balls were… This was akin to a rather unusual summoning.

Forget it. It’s only a little early! Roy thought. Anyway, since there’s nothing else to do now, why don’t I just go to the Heroes of Might and Magic world and collect some information about space magic… With this thought, Roy got Fat Tiger to continue on his way again and planned to go back to see if Julia was awake. If she was awake, he would bring her along. With two high-rank demons and a titan hellhound, if they caught Xeron, they would beat him to death…
