Chapter 27 - Greater Demon

 "Looks like I have enough SP to become a Greater Demon," Alros said with a smile. Without hesitation, he quickly pick the evolution tab and choose the Greater Demon.

< Race Upgrade: Greater Demon (Incubus) - Allow one to become a greater demon, strong enough to waylaid an entire towns and their own.

 Cost: 1000 SP >

 He purchased it immediately before feeling his body is in great agony, like he was bath in fire and acid at once. He wanted to scream yet the only thing that come out of his throat is silence.

 As he was tormented by the great pain, he wondered if he would to suffer for every upgrade for his race.

-x-

 "Ugh," groaning, Alros woke up. He was currently inside the last settlement he destroyed. He quickly stretched his body and try to see if there is any changes, physically at least.

 To his surprise, there seem to be no changes. However, he did not think upgrading to a Greater Demon will not have some kind of boon so he began to look.

[ Master, you can check your status to see your improvement. ]

 He almost punched himself for forgetting such thing. Then again, with how much he had been doing, his status did not seem as important as before.

 He check it and could not help but gasp of the improvement he had undergone.

 "Looks like some of my skills improved when I upgrade my race. It also seem I manage to gain two more new skills," he mused. The more interesting part for him is that his Intoxicating Scent is already at level 2.

 He also gain Demonic Mark. Now that he thought about, while his goblins have marks after he subdued them, with his slimes, wolves and women, only the first three changed marking. It seem him turning them into demonic variant made them have their own Demonic Mark, though whether it differ from his own is something he could not tell.

 "Oh well. For now, now that I think about it, Laili, are there limit to the level of skills?" he asked.

[ The limit should be level 10. This is the hard limit for skills and only those at the very top could dream of achieving it. ]

 "Is that so, does Demon Emperors reach level 10 in their skills?" 

[ I believe so, as there is lacking amount of information for me to determine it. However, it is the most likely conclusion. ]

 "Hhm, lets shelve it off for now. We should be ready for the coming attack," Alros exclaimed, before letting out his wings. He had already put his force inside the system space.

 Regretfully, he did lose some of his monsters, but he could easily replace them for now. Not to mention the loot he gain and the LP and SP he managed to make, it more than make up the loses.

 However, he could only enjoy it if he survive, and one of the obstacle for his survival would be the group of soldiers heading his way. If they reported something is destroying the settlement, they might pull out several easy targets and send in more forces. 

 His plan is to destroy the group, then hunt down the settlement. He might even try and make some of his goblins smarter so they can lead their own groups to destroy the settlement.

 "Baby steps," he reminded himself, not wanting to overthink for now. However, he did a quick check on his system space.

< System Space

Space Limit (Population) : 350/400

Space Limit (Lair) : 15/25

Mana Point: 2500/10000

Lust Point: 55000 >

 "I still have a lot of SP and LP. I should try to get some more things once I arrive at the settlement," he said to himself, a cold smirk on his face. He almost feel sorry for those soldiers that will now share their graves with the male settlers.
