Chapter 8 - Demon King

It has been almost a week I had been surveying this Demon castle...Hordes of goblins and other demonic beasts were gathered here. I doubt any normal magician can survive the harsh ambiance of this space given the amount of miasma here. *slurp..**munch..*crack*"sigh" sighing satisfaction after quenching my hunger and thirst. Disgusting as it may sound I discovered eating magic beasts could give me their powers and since the aura from the demon king castle was suppressing my 'devour', the system was forcefully replenishing my health while simultaneously purging the negative side-effects of the meat. I once again set my sights on the castle, stalling for an opportunity was the main plan, precisely every full moon demon magicians and demonic beasts have their outbursts [kind of bears semblance to the spell that falls upon women once a month] where they use any medium to empty these destructive tendencies all based on the seven deadly sins; Lust, Gluttony, Sloth, Greed, Envy, Pride and Wrath; precisely the reason while most demon kings and emperors indulge in extraneous hobbies from conducting orgies to rampaging, looting of planets while some stronger demon beings release these emotions large scale by committing genocides. All this because as they ascend higher in their cultivation, their heart-demons are not properly reined in control. *Howwwwwlllll* *scrchhhhhhh* perceiving the sounds made by the surrounding magic beasts seems like it's time, quickly readying my equipment and emotions I looked over my plan again to be reassured, after surveying the map of the demon castle once again I could not help but appreciate the architect of this masterpiece, sneaking under the bridge is a big no-no given the power level of flood dragons hidden in there...All I could do now was to use the tunnel I constructed the past few days, connecting me to the inner court of the castle... however, the blood moon may only last a full day or up to six hundred and sixty six days, this time frame could be interpreted as enough to get things done but I was a pessimist this could also be looked at from a pessimistic perspective given I had only a day to get matters sorted out before all hell breaks loose, narrowing my eyes and scratching my stubble I regained my confidence due to my level up, one of the level ups after eating demon meat was a boost to my skills at least the range for my deplorable skills to be cast has now extended to about ten meters which would be more convenient. "Pleios reveal" chanting softly I released an aphrodisiac gas into the castle at strategic points, the gates, the guard towers, and the inner courtroom, I was not foolish enough to think that even the demon King would lose his restraints, however, it would weaken him a bit. But what he did not know was that the demon king he was invading was ranked the fourth-strongest Tiro demon king on this plane. Although he had not stepped into the demon emperor realm, his achievements(human kill count) really did him the justice to hold this title. Currently, however, he was trying to recuperate from injuries he got while having a battle with one of the elf experts so he was unaware of the commotion in his castle.

*eiiiiii* *chachachacha*, *bruruuru*, different mating symphonies and melodies were melting together to give the atmosphere around the castle that of a depraved land of bliss. And while waiting for the demon king to partake in this hellish orgy he noticed that there was still no response. Taking chances he sneaked into the inner chambers and noticed the demon king was meditating around thousands of magic gems, sincerely his eyes were shining with pearls now, but when he looked back he discovered that the demon king vanished, 'death' his instinct forced his body to move from that area he was standing seconds ago which had just turned to rubble, destroying it down to the ground floor of the castle. Bradque was still shivering after having a close shave with death, he immediately organized himself was asking the system to do the needful.

"Fuck" he muttered and at the same time kept dodging the blows of this dark-skinned bulky demon king. 'system can I purchase items from the store?' 'Why does host keep on asking stupid questions when..' 'shut up and give me a straightforward answer' Bradque did not have time to dill dally with this shameless and ridiculous system when his small life was on the line..."Nice reflexes, but how long are you planning on dodging when a sword is strapped on your back".. "..." "Look boy surrender and allow me to violate you then cannibalize on your flesh before releasing you of being bound in this world" "sincerely for a level 4 mage you are highly competent to be this nimble but we both know your MP will run out before mine...hhehehehehe" with a chuckle the demon king Jorgen was displaying his monstrous strength with his large broadsword while Bradque was negating his attacks with more sword strikes, agility and excellent footwork, however his arms could not keep up with the strength of this demon king, his radius and ulna were almost shattered...his breath was ragged and he was wheezing and panting like a woman going into labor "while panting and listening to the condescending words of Jorgen it was then *spurrtlll*..."smart tactic you cunning little bastard forcing me to lose my mind while stalling" "I must admit it is smart but with the trifling grade of this aphrodisiac you cannot..." "You were saying?"..."impossible..." with a smirk Bradque brought out a glass bottle containing "Holy...water"...'Run!' the Jorgen's sixth sense was screaming but it was at this point his mental capacity collapsed and gave in to the external pressure from the aphrodisiac causing him to go berserk. Pouring the holy water on his sword, Bradque beheaded the Demon king while hearing the updates from the system he decided to keep it on hold while checking his loot when he found 'True God weapon found--Sword of Hades 'To think this old monster had such an artifact and did not even know was akin to giving pearls to a pig. After checking his status he was surprised because apart from upgrading from level 5 to level 7, he had the whole wealth of a demon king although it was a Tiro-ranked Demon king it was still something.
