Custom Made Demon King
Chapter 17
Panda Novel
A demon's sense of smell was special!
Only they could smell the aroma of a soul from afar. However, since the souls they usually detected were low quality, they would not bother to rush over because they knew it was the spoils of other demons. They were too far away, and it would be gone by the time they reached it.
But it was different now. Only a high-quality soul would be able to emit such an aroma, and it was definitely something rare in the upper level of the Abyss. Hundreds of demons actually gathered after smelling it!
Many demons came involuntarily driven by the pure desire for such a soul. They were simply attracted to the aroma but did not know how this soul appeared.
Upon arriving, he realized that the aroma came from the inside of an extinct volcano.
There were many such volcanoes in the upper level of the Abyss. However, most of them were active volcanoes with magma flowing out at any time. The demon world was a world where lava and flames coexisted precisely because of these volcanoes.
Similarly, there were extinct volcanoes as well, but there were very few of them. Now, however, hundreds of demons were rushing toward the interior of this extinct volcano. And many more were constantly streaming in.
After diving down into the interior of the volcano, he saw that there was a ferocious fight going on!
The demons that arrived earlier showed their most savage faces and were fighting each other, but their battles were all surrounding an… altar!
Roy was astonished because he knew from one glance that this altar was artificial, something he had never seen in the upper level of the Abyss!
1He could not expect these low-rank demons to build houses. In fact, due to the crossbreeding, most of them could not even be classified. Categories like flame demon, succubus, shadow demon, and so on could not be applied to them. Roy could not even tell what type of demon he was. Many low-rank demons simply survived, and they did not even know how to make simple tools and weapons, so how was it possible for them to build something?
Therefore, Roy was certain that the altar could have never been made by these low-rank demons!
However, the Demon World isn't a place that humans can survive, so who built this altar? Could it be something the high-rank demons left behind?
The altar looked huge. In addition to the height of the base, the top platform was as large as a basketball court. The large magic formation engraved onto the round platform had a six-pointed star in the middle, and within it was a strange drawing. It seemed to be an Ouroboros biting its own tail, and unrecognizable words surrounded the magic formation. Intuition told Roy that it was probably words of the demon language.
The magic formation was currently glimmering. The indecipherable words and the drawing were flashing rhythmically with a slight buzz. It seemed to have activated.
The aroma of the soul came from the magic formation, but what baffled Roy was that he could not see the high-quality soul anywhere, and there was nothing in the magic formation.
What's going on? Has the soul not appeared yet? In that case, where is the aroma coming from?
Looking at the demons that seemed to have lost their minds fighting below, Roy knew that they were competing for ownership of the high-quality soul that was about to appear. Although Roy's mouth might be dripping saliva from the aroma of the soul, he floated in the air to observe instead of joining the fight.
1Roy had yet to understand the function of the altar, so he would not take action before he did.
2He even stayed a little farther away to prevent those demons from taking the initiative to fight him…
It would not be an overstatement to describe the scene below as a river of blood. Demons died one after another as the fighting progressed. Purple demon blood flowed out of their bodies and converged. The demons that survived could not wait to get into the next fight after devouring their opponent's souls.
One of the demons was the most eye-catching!
He was a powerful demon about eight meters tall and had the largest body among the demons present. He had a four-foot-long tail covered with thick horny scales like that of a pangolin, and his upper body was humanoid. Roy knew this demon had lived in the upper level of the Abyss for decades from the long curved horns on his head!
4Demon horns often had rings to show their age, and this was the main basis to judge their age. This old demon was almost invincible among this group of demons. However, the most important matter was that he had a weapon in his hand. It was a huge, crude stone hammer and was stained with the blood of the demons, looking extremely savage. The old demon seemed to have incorporated his own soul fragment into it, giving this weapon a terrible black glow and a hardness far beyond imagination.
Roy weighed the situation and found that it was impossible for even him to win against this old demon, further increasing his reluctance to enter the battle.
The old demon waved the big stone hammer around and killed everything around him. It did not take long before he became the lone survivor in this bloody melee.
He let out a huge roar as he stared at the remaining demons around him. They were unwilling but still slowly retreated, admitting defeat and recognizing the old demon as the victor.
The scene was similar to where he first hatched… This was the Demon World. The other demons would recognize your status when you had more power than them.
It's coming! Roy watched as the old demon took heavy steps up to the altar. He stared intently, trying to see what would happen.
The following scene almost made Roy think he was going mad.
When the old demon stepped on the altar, the high-quality soul did not appear as Roy imagined! Instead, a black light spot appeared on the altar. The entire magic formation began to shine, expanding that black light spot to form a black mist, and the mist enveloped the old demon. After coming into contact with the black mist, the old demon's body began to blur a little.
Finally, the entire body of the old demon disappeared, and the light from the magic formation dimmed.
F*ck, he really disappeared! Was he… teleported away?!
Roy looked at the altar in surprise. He felt the black mist was like a legendary space gate or portal. What else could explain the disappearance of the old demon?
The high-quality soul he was anticipating did not appear, and the old demon was teleported away instead. After he sorted everything that happened, a thought suddenly appeared in his mind. That old demon was being summoned!
Right, summoned! This must have been the case. Someone was summoning demons through some special means, and the offering given by that person must have been the high-quality soul. The demons fought each other over the offering! And the winner had to respond to the summon and enter the other world if they wanted the offering.
4The role of this altar also came out—a medium to connect with other worlds!
2Roy became excited. This was a huge discovery. No wonder the novels and movies that he watched in the past had plots that summoned demons, it turned out to be true!
What kind of world was I summoned to? Is there only one such world? Two? Or multiple worlds? What kind of person summoned the demon? What did they summon the demon for? Is there a contract between the demon and the summoner?
3Wait, wait, wait. Roy had too many questions, but this discovery was really wonderful for a Gemini like Roy. This meant his monotonous life would finally become interesting.
6The remaining demons left once the aroma of the soul disappeared. The empty altar was not attractive to them at all, but Roy stayed. He wanted to see how often this summon happened.
Other than that, Roy had to take a look at the rest of the extinct volcanoes to see if there were altars like this one in them that could open portals…
