"You laughable mortal! Hahaha! How dare a mere ant resist defy me!" The demon, seeing that this mortal dared to confront him and was even being pushed back in the fight, felt compelled to pursue and capitalize on his advantage.
Chris was merely a test for him, as he already knew there were no other demons nearby. Faced with the first demon in his life, how could he not play with it properly?
"I am your daddy! You idiot!" Chris sneered and retaliated using frost magic.
The freezing effect of the ice arrows extinguished the flames on the demon's body and effectively reduced its attacking speed. At least for now, its speed was no different from that of an adult man - it wasn't particularly fast.
"You are seeking death!" In hell, this demon was considered trash. Finally seizing an opportunity to come to Earth and harvest souls, it naturally wouldn't let any chance slip by. Anyone who dared to hinder it would have their neck twisted and their soul extracted!
The sky began to unleash a frost storm, enveloping a 20-meter radius around the village in freezing temperatures.
As Chris retreated, he conjured a frigid magical iceball.
Seeing this, the demon let out a furious roar, igniting its entire body in flames, dispelling the cold. Its super-fast speed returned in an instant, and it appeared in front of Chris, ready to deliver a punch that could easily turn a person into pulp the size of a car tire.
At this crucial moment, Chris suddenly burst into a sinister laughter, "Do you think you've won?"
"What?" The demon became somewhat doubtful.
In the next second, Chris threw an identical punch, but this time there was an iceball emanating extreme coldness in front of his fist.
Upon collision, the magical runes shattered, and the cold energy swiftly froze the demon. Even the green flames burning on its body were frozen, not extinguished but trapped in ice.
Frozen flames, something seemingly impossible, had actually occurred!
In this moment of astonishment at nature's marvels, the frozen demon began to struggle, cracks forming in the icy prison, spreading across the surface as if ready to burst out.
Chris increased the transmission of his magical power, and with a thought, three azure ice runes revolved around the iceball.
With the output of his magical power, the demon became firmly trapped within the ice, forever sealed in its frozen state.
Though unable to struggle within the icy prison, the voice of the demon still reached Chris through the ice.
"Struggle, mortal! You can't hold me. I want to see how much magical power you have, you insignificant ant. Once I break free, I will show you the cruelest way to devour you, and your soul will be mine!"
Chris smirked, his mouth curling with disdain, "Oh, really? I don't believe it~ Do you think I want to kill you? Fool, you are nothing more than a commodity!"
"A commodity? What do you mean? Kid, how dare you treat the mighty demon of Hell as a commodity!" The demon was exceptionally enraged and roared. It only wanted to feast on humans and collect souls, but it never expected to be treated as a mere commodity by the weaker party.
The weaker side treating the stronger side as a commodity! It found the situation so amusing that it almost burst into laughter!
"What do I mean? Huh, you'll find out soon enough!" Chris sneered and opened the Conqueror Store for exchange.
After a strange distortion in space, the frozen demon was silently absorbed as if it had never existed.
"Surviving demon: Can be exchanged for 10,000 CP. Dissecting it with 20,000 CP will grant the Demon Slayer specialization, increasing attack power against demons by 20%!"
So, to obtain the specialization reward, Chris needed to spend an additional 10,000 CP?
Chris didn't mind; 10,000 CP weren't much.
After clicking the confirmation button, Chris' personal panel displayed a new skill: "Demon Slayer: Increases attack power against demons by 20%!"
This description seems a bit unclear, but in simple terms, it means that it will be easier and simpler to fight demons. A demon that would have required ten Frost Arrows to defeat can now be handled with just eight Frost Arrows, that's how simple it is.
"Continue capturing demons and dissecting them to obtain more demon skills and items!" The Conqueror Store popped up with a reminder.
This made Chris' eyes flicker a few times. If there were no prompts about what could be obtained, it meant that there were significant rewards waiting to be unlocked, requiring a large number of demons for exchange and replenishment. The more demons provided, both in quantity and quality, the greater the variety of items that could be obtained through exchange.
After checking the village and using frost magic to extinguish the flames, Chris found that there were no more survivors in the village. They had all been sacrificed and eaten by demons, their bodies reduced to ashes in the burning flames, leaving nothing behind.
Using teleportation magic, Chris returned to library once again.
