Custom Made Demon King

The purplish-red pool water was constantly bubbling and steaming, seeming to be boiling.

 Dozens of low-rank demons were soaking in this pool, and from time to time, low-rank demons like Roy, who needed to promote, were rushing over. Roy had only been observing for a while before seeing several low-rank demons passing the entrance and entering the pool.

 The middle-rank demons lurking in the periphery did not stop them and let them enter. Moreover, seeing how the barrier blasted them away after they touched it, they seemed to want to go in again.

 Roy brought Fat Tiger slowly toward the place of refinement. In this process, Roy witnessed the promotion of some low-rank demons.

 After soaking in the pool, the bodies of the low-rank demons had more or less changed. Some of them had changed demon horns. The horns became thicker and twisted, and the originally relatively straight horns gradually curved into a circle, like the difference between a goat’s horns and a sheep’s horns. Some had changed their bodies, becoming smaller or larger. Some had massive changes. There could be a few more eyes on their faces, a few more arms, or a tail for those that originally did not have one.

 Roy even saw a smaller demon whose chest swelled up and grew out a pair of wings from its back, gradually changing from an unknown demon into a succubus!

 He did not know if this demon was originally male or female. It would be all right if it was a female, but if it was a male, then this change was huge! This was already not something cross-dressing could describe…

 This scene made Roy ponder. This place of refinement seemed to be awakening the bloodlines of demons!

 Roy was certain that the demon that became a succubus definitely had the bloodline of a succubus. The power in the pool would stimulate this bloodline, and then this demon turned into a succubus.

 Roy landed. Under the watchful gazes of the middle-rank demons around the periphery, he entered the place of refinement. However, he did not rush into the pool and chose to continue observing.

 He remembered that due to the demon wings on his back, other demons had always regarded him as having the bloodline of a high-rank demon. Spider Queen Araniya had said so before, and Xeron said the same later. But Roy had not figured out what race this so-called high-rank demon was.

 Logically speaking, if you judged using wings, a demon race like the succubus should be high-rank demons. However, the succubi Roy encountered in the Heroes of Might and Magic world were all middle-rank demons, and Xeron, a demon without wings, was a high-rank demon.

 Therefore, Roy was a little confused now. The difference between low-rank demons and middle-rank demons is very easy to understand. It’s just if the bloodline has been refined. But what is the difference between middle-rank demons and high-rank demons? It couldn’t be a second refinement, right?

 Roy was wrong about this.

 The so-called succubus, flame demon, deep abyss demon, and so on were just simple names. These names did not represent a type of demon!

 These terms were only derived from the characteristics of a demon’s powers. For example, succubi were demons who were good at using charming methods, and flame demons were demons that were good at using flames. These demons either had strange methods or were powerful. When they appeared in various worlds, people were deeply wary of them, leaving deep impressions of them, so these people gave them special names to distinguish between them and other demons.

 However, such names did not completely represent a demon race. It did not mean that every succubus looked like a seductive female demon, nor that every flame demon had to have flames all over their bodies.

 Due to the bloodthirsty and warlike nature of demons, they rarely interacted with other races, so the outside races had always been puzzled about the demon race. Even if some wizards and scholars specialized in studying demons, attempted to summon and enslave them, and wanted to understand the situation of the Abyss from the mouths of these demons, they would only obtain a smattering of knowledge in the end. Because of the complex bloodlines among demons, even they themselves would find it difficult to distinguish clearly, so how could they explain it to others?

 The social forms of demons were very complicated. Although they had the demon language and demon writing, these were only obtained from their inherited memories. In demon society, there were no schools and education system. After all, with their nature, they could not form any form of order.

 Of course, it did not mean that there was really no way to distinguish between demons. In fact, compared to low-rank and middle-rank demons, after reaching the level of high-rank demon, and as their intelligence constantly improved, there was a general way to differentiate between the ruling hierarchy of demons.

 These divisions were relatively simple. In general, there were four types of demons: war demons, elemental demons, trickery demons, and chaotic demons.

 War demons mainly referred to demons that used their bodies as their main fighting method. These demons were usually strong and large, and they were good at using cold weapons. The magic power in their demon hearts was not often used in the form of magic but instead attached to weapons, fists, and claws, bringing about powerful attack effects.

 Elemental demons, as the name suggested, were demons who were good at using elemental magic. Due to the environment of the Abyss, the majority of them used the fire element, but there were also demons who could use other elemental magic such as the dark element, air element, earth element, and so on. However, these elemental magic were different from the magic used by humans and other races. Because some incantations were recited in the demon language, similar to dragon language magic, they were often called demonic spells.

 Regarding trickery demons, succubi could be classified into this category. It referred to demons who were good at using spiritual magic such as illusions, puppetry spells, and so on.

 As for the final chaotic demons, demons that could not be clearly classified into the above three fell into this category. For example, a demon that could use fire magic, was good at melee, and perhaps even knew some magic to fool the mind, this type of demon that knew everything was a chaotic demon.

 These four types covered almost all demons and did not distinguish simply between races. It could be considered the standard method of differentiating.

 As for the division between middle rank and high rank, after going through the promotion process of refining the bloodline, it basically depended on strength. Any middle-rank demon who completed the refinement could become a high-rank demon as long as they could survive long enough and accumulate enough magic power. However, the refinement of the bloodline was an important part. If the bloodline was purer, the probability of becoming a high-rank demon was naturally much greater.

 Therefore, when Xeron said that Roy had the bloodline of a high-rank demon, he actually meant that Roy’s bloodline was relatively pure and had great potential!
