Custom Made Demon King

Psychokinesis, the ability to intervene in the movement of material systems through the mind. In theory, regardless of whether it was macroscopic matter or microscopic matter, Psychokinesis could intervene with it.

Although air was invisible, it was indeed matter that existed. Even though Roy had not reached the stage of being able to control various air molecules through Psychokinesis, he could use it to control an area of air and compress it, resulting in the principle of an air shield.

With such a buffer layer, Roy had many advantages in chaotic fights. He was mainly involved in melee combat and naturally had to face many of these enemies head-on. Even a 0.1 second lag in the enemy's attack could give Roy more time to react.

Killing the enemy and collecting the scattered souls nearby meant that Roy had to monitor Xeron's situation while fighting.

Indeed, as Roy had guessed, personally joining the fight greatly excited Xeron. He was vividly displaying the demons' bellicose attitude. Blood continuously splattering in all directions caused Xeron's demon eyes to turn red and dreadful. As he eliminated his enemies, he was roaring maniacally.

A soul floated out from one of the pegasus knights he killed. He opened his mouth wide and swallowed it. The terror in that soul of the pegasus knight became a wonderful taste that lingered in his mouth, causing him to gasp comfortably before continuing to raise his scythe and harvest enemy lives.

Yes, Xeron, as Roy had guessed, devoured souls as he killed. In fact, it was not only the loophole in the contract that prompted him to do so, but also because Ignatius, who remained in the demon city, was going to summon high-level demons.

In order to kill the Gold Dragon Queen, Xeron needed a high-level demon army to help, but there was a price for summoning these high-level demons. Xeron and the other two had to share the souls with them. Thus, the situation was that Xeron felt his expected returns had lessened, and he was trying to make up for it by devouring souls on the battlefield.

Actually, Xeron had slight regrets now. He regretted promising Roy 10% percent of spoils in the contract. At that time, he thought that by relying on a large number of low-level demons, he could accomplish the task with ease, so he thought that it was worthwhile to give a little bonus to attract an elite demon like Roy. But unexpectedly, Ignatius and Rashka had brought news of the presence of the Gold Dragon Queen.

Compared to Ignatius and Rashka, the other two high-rank demons, Xeron had to give out more souls, so of course he would feel uncomfortable.

Without a doubt, he was now trying to make up for the loss, so he would naturally make up for it through exploiting the contract with Roy. He fought and devoured souls with all his might, taking the opportunity to get as many as possible before the battle ended.

However, little did he know that Roy was not only not annoyed with his action of devouring souls while fighting but instead happy.

Eat, eat all you want! I don't believe that you'll remember how many souls you devour!

After all, there was a fixed number of pegasus knights. If they were all eliminated, then the number of corpses should correspond to the number of souls. If Roy were the only one grabbing souls, then Xeron would have been able to tell how many were missing. But now that Xeron himself was devouring souls, the number of corpses and souls would not match at the end of the battle, and he might not necessarily be able to tell that Roy had taken some.

Now, Roy could snatch souls at ease. He specially selected the areas that had more souls and ran over. When he found a pegasus knight to fight, he roared and roared, pretending to be fighting hard but was actually collecting the souls nearby.

After collecting nearly forty souls, the battle was drawing to an end, and Roy stopped.

The entire pegasus knight force was wiped clean. Since they had not chosen to escape, the demons would have no mercy, and more than two hundred pegasus knights and pegasi died here.

However, although they all died in battle, they had caused significant damage to the demon army. Pegasus knights were considered mid-level soldiers among the elves and were relatively lethal. In this attack, Xeron's demon army lost over a hundred little demons and more than ten hellhounds.

But the largest loss was the siege equipment. The pegasus knights had destroyed half of the ten catapults that Xeron brought, as well as three bed crossbows. After the battle, Xeron was enraged upon seeing the damaged equipment.

He knew his march had been delayed…

When the little demons collected the souls floating on the battlefield and presented them to Xeron, he felt as if some were missing but did not pay it much attention since he had not counted how many souls he had devoured.

Furthermore, he thought that no one would have the courage to dare to snatch and devour souls that belonged to him…

As a high-rank demon, Xeron was overconfident. Never would he have thought that someone not only dared to steal his souls but also not just a couple of them but around forty of them!

While there had been over two hundred pegasus knights and pegasi, Xeron obtained only a bit more than 160 souls in the end. And Xeron had to give about sixteen to Roy. After this one battle, Roy had obtained over fifty souls!

And this was just a small-scale battle. Roy estimated that he could get more souls in a larger scale battle.

After receiving the sixteen souls that Xeron reluctantly handed over, Roy pretended to be greedy and stuffed them all into his mouth to swallow. But in fact, he stored them using the storage function of his system.

After 'eating', Roy said to Xeron with a satisfied expression, "Thank you for your generosity, Your Excellency Xeron! Your violence and bravery is the role model of the demons!"

After Roy's bootlicking, Xeron felt much better. He could not have heard these words from other low-level demons, so he laughed and said, "Okay, I'll now give you a mission. You've also seen that those damned AvLee elven scouts have damaged our catapults. Now, we must repair them. I will temporarily stop here with the army. You bring some people and look around to see if you can find an elven sawmill. Get us some wood and repair these catapults!"

"Yes, Your Excellency Xeron!" Roy bowed his head slightly, expressing his acknowledgment of the order. After withdrawing a distance while walking backward, he turned around and left to gather troops.

Xeron was very impatient with trivial matters like repairing the siege equipment. In the past, he used to have to handle these things personally, but now that he had a smart demon helper like Roy, Xeron was naturally lazy.

Roy brought a Fat Tiger, ten hellhounds, and twenty little demons and left the camp to search for a sawmill.

Due to his laziness, Xeron had let Roy out of his sights, creating a good opportunity for Roy to escape. But Roy did not intend to do so. Now that the demons had invaded the border of Erathia, it meant that the humans and their allies, the elves, had entered a state of war. What if he ran into their army if he escaped? A single demon only had one outcome in front of so many enemies.

Besides, Roy needed a large amount of magic energy if he had wanted to reverse activate the summoning formation. His most important task now was to remain in the demon army and gather enough souls to strengthen his magic energy.

Although he had no intention of escaping, being able to lead a group out alone was a very good opportunity for Roy.

A very good opportunity to play a trick on someone…
