Chapter 454
Behind the Blood Demon, Fang Ming, tall and in his Demons form, was radiating black energy as he looked down at the Blood Demon below.
The Blood Demon couldn't see Fang Ming's appearance, but the oppressive aura, the sheer volume of his magic, and the familiar horns hidden in the shadows created an Illusion for the Blood Demon.
That is the Demon King, who has arrived here!
Under Fang Ming's immense pressure, the Blood Demon was completely unable to consider why the Demon King was here, or why he was allied with the Magical Girls.
Her mind went blank; she lost her own consciousness amidst the absolute dominance of the Demons in their Lower Rank.
"Oh? Interesting..."
Seeing the Blood Demon collapse in front of him, Fang Ming stroked his chin with amusement and grabbed the Blood Demon in his hand.
This was also the first time he had faced Demons of a lower rank than himself in such a manner.
Upon meeting him, Fang Ming immediately sensed something.
That is, he seems to have complete control over the life and death of the Blood Demon before him!
Fang Ming remembered that it had been mentioned before that lower-ranking Demons would absolutely obey Demons of higher ranks.
The original Songstress Demon could command the Fish Monster Demon, even though they were newly born Demons.
However, this kind of obedience should be more like a setting rooted in genes. Normally, a high-ranking Demons should not be able to absolutely control the lives of low-ranking Demons.
So... is this a skill unique to Fang Ming?
No, perhaps the Demon King also possesses similar skills.
This explains why, despite the Demons previously being a disorganized group fighting their own battles, the emergence of this so-called Demon King allowed him to unify the Demons world in an instant.
If the Demon King had such absolute control over all Demons, it would be strange if he hadn't unified the Demons world!
"Brother Fang Ming, what... happened to her?"
Yu Muqiu, puzzled, approached Fang Ming after his opponent suddenly fainted and asked him about it.
Fang Ming shook the Blood Demon in his hand, which was now as lifeless as a dead fish, and said with a smile:
"They were just intimidated by my aura. It seems that my rank in Demon Form is indeed at the Pillar Rank."
Fang Ming's original magic power level has not yet exceeded the 100,000 magic power threshold of the Pillar Rank, but he can easily cross this threshold when he transforms into Magical Girls and activates Shining Form, or when he uses his Demon Form.
Under the absolute hierarchy among Demons, even if Fang Ming did not have absolute control over Demons, the Blood Demon could not possibly Fang Ming.
Wait a minute, does that mean that Demons below the Pillar Rank pose no threat to this world?
"Waaah... Fang Ming's condition is terrifying..."
Chen Xiaoxia looked at Fang Ming's current state, shuddered, and muttered to herself.
This was the first time they had seen Fang Ming in his full Demon Form, and as expected, they sensed a strong negative magical energy emanating from Fang Ming.
If they hadn't known that Fang Ming was in cahoots with them, they probably would have already Fang Ming...
"Brother Fang Ming, did you capture this Demons to see if you could absorb her power?"
After Xiao Qiu and Xiaoxia, Xiao Chun, who had been providing support shooting from a distance, finally returned.
She looked at the Blood Demon in Fang Ming's hand, which seemed somewhat dead, and asked Fang Ming curiously.
Fang Ming didn't hide anything from this, and he nodded, saying:
"Yes, the me in the Sky Screen was able to use the power of the Calamity Demon after Demonization. Although the current me and the me in the Sky Screen look different, we are essentially the same. So I plan to try and see if I can use this guy's ability."
Fang Ming spoke, he shook the Blood Demon off his hand.
Chen Xiaoxia paused for a moment upon hearing this, then exclaimed in panic, "Ah, did I do something wrong just now? I accidentally killed the Paranoid Demon..."
"It's alright, one Demons is enough." Fang Ming shook his head to indicate that it was no problem.
He knew that Chen Xiaoxia disliked the Paranoid Demon, after all, the Paranoid Demon in the Sky Screen had never taken Chen Xiaoxia seriously at first.
Therefore, Fang Ming did not specifically instruct Chen Xiaoxia to hold back.
Furthermore, we don't yet know what will happen after absorbing the power of the Demons. If we're just doing experiments, one is enough. There's no need to leave too many Demons behind; leaving Demons many would be a hidden danger.
Furthermore, there are countless Demons; one more or one less won't make a difference.
Volume 5 Side Story Magic Mystery Season 2: Chapter 488 On Why Magical Girls Don't Like Witch...
The Magical Girls' first battle against Upper Demon ended in a resounding victory for the Magical Girls.
This is a natural outcome.
In reality, Yu Muqiu and her friends started their new forms almost three months earlier than their counterparts in the Sky Screen.
The new form will lead to an improvement in the original body's strength. Yu Muqiu and the others successfully increased their total magic power to over 10,000 four months ago, just before the start of the school year.
This is the standard for those in Upper Rank.
They arrived almost half a month earlier than Yu Muqiu and the others in the Sky Screen.
Furthermore, in the Sky Screen, only Yu Muqiu activated Shining 2 at the beginning, but in reality, everyone has a new form. Coupled with Lesos's devilish training, the overall strength of the Magical Girls far surpasses that of the ones in the Sky Screen Curtain.
Therefore, becoming Upper Demon is no longer a problem for Yu Muqiu and her group.
Even Pillar-Tier Demon are not invincible with Fang Ming's help.
However, Lesos's advice was to let the Magical Girls progress steadily and avoid fighting monsters much stronger than themselves.
Moreover, without the coordinates provided by the Blood Demon, even Pillar-Tier Demon might not be able to find this place in a short time.
This is a good thing; by hiding the Magical Girls' base, Demon Society in the future.
After finishing the trivial matters, Fang Ming took the Blood Demon back to the Magical Girls's base and dealt with it.
Absorbing the Blood Demon is actually not difficult.
Judging from the interactions between the Calamity Demon and the Demonized Xiao Bai in the Sky Screen, all that's needed is to receive the Blood Demon's Nightmare Seed to successfully master the Blood Demon's power.
Fang Ming did the same.
He had no intention of keeping the Blood Demon alive.
Leaving aside the things the Blood Demon did in the Sky Screen, just the Blood Demon in front of Fang Ming alone has Destruction countless worlds with life.
In the Sky Screen, such events are merely presented as background, leaving the audience with no direct impression of them.
But when this number becomes reality, when it becomes a real life existing right before our eyes, then I believe that no matter who it is, they will feel that the Blood Demon deserves to die.
Without any hesitation, Fang Ming killed the Blood Demon and absorbed her Nightmare Seed.
The absorption process went quite smoothly.
After absorbing the skill, Fang Ming looked at his skill panel.
As expected, among the subordinate abilities of the Demon Form, there is an additional [Blood Magic LV4], which is the standard for Upper Rank.
"Is it a one-step path to the Upper Rank...?"
Fang Ming muttered to himself, raising his hand. Blood gushed from beneath the skin of his palm, gathering into a crimson sphere.
The Blood Demon has many abilities, but only two are considered fundamental.
[Blood Manipulation] and [Blood Regeneration]
Blood Manipulation goes without saying, while Blood Regeneration is to prevent the Blood Demon from running out of blood.
After all, if the blood production rate were normal, the Blood Demon would probably die from lack of blood after using his abilities only a few times.
Of course, this is all based on the premise that the Blood Demon is a normal human being.
Therefore, the [Regeneration] skill is extremely important; it is the foundation of everything. Without this ability, once the Blood Demon loses its living environment, its abilities would probably be inferior even to those of Mid-Tier Demon.
Now, this ability belongs to Fang Ming.
Adding to Fang Ming's inherent ability of [Flesh Control] in his Demons form, Fang Ming's Regeneration speed is probably among the strongest of all Demons.
At least in this respect, even Pillar Rank Demons are no match for Fang Ming.
After familiarizing himself with his newfound abilities, Fang Ming deactivated his transformation and reverted to his boyish appearance.
After reverting to his original form, he first glanced at the mirror in the room. Seeing the boy in the mirror who hadn't grown at all, Fang Ming sighed deeply.
Although Fang Ming can use Magical Girls and Demons magic in his original form, these magics are weakened. The Demons magic [Flesh Control] is completely unable to allow Fang Ming to maintain his adult form for a long time.
Therefore, for now, Fang Ming can only exist in this state.
However, after half a year, Fang Ming had gotten used to his boyish appearance.
He wasn't in a hurry to revert to his original form.
After all...
Sometimes when he goes out shopping, he can even enjoy the benefits of being a 'minor'.
Things like getting extra freebies when you buy things, being fed by passersby, and being able to openly enter the children's playground and play on the rides... cough cough...
Anyway, ever since he started calling Xiao Qiu and the others "sister," and did so for a month, Fang Ming felt like he had opened the door to New World.
I've gotten younger, so what's wrong with enjoying the benefits of being young?
So what if I lost a little integrity? It's not a big deal...
Thinking this, Fang Ming still stood tall and proud in front of the mirror, smugly observing his own appearance.
Yes, very good. He's both handsome and cute today, as expected of him!
"... I'm telling you, how long are you going to keep being narcissistic?"
"!"
Just as Fang Ming was admiring himself in front of the mirror, someone suddenly complained from behind him.
Young Fang Ming froze, then turned his head nonchalantly to look at Lesos, who had barged into his room, and said seriously:
"I was just tidying up my clothes, not being narcissistic."
"Let's just assume that's how you feel..."
Lesos rolled her eyes, too lazy to call him out.
Fang Ming stared at her intently for a while, then suddenly asked, "What do you want by barging into my room without permission?"
"I just came to see if you had absorbed the Blood Demon 'Blood Demon power, and whether you had been affected by it. Now it seems... you have indeed been affected."
Lesos's expression was serious.
Fang Ming was taken aback. "How come I didn't know I was affected?"
"You've become so narcissistic, isn't that the influence of the Blood Demon?"
"?"
Fang Ming was stunned.
What does his narcissism have to do with the Blood Demon? Besides, the Blood Demon isn't the kind of Demons who would be narcissistic.
After a two-second pause, Fang Ming realized that Lesos was joking.
He immediately retorted irritably, "Fine, Witch, you've been with us for half a year now, and you've even learned to joke around."
"Hehehe, I've just never seen you showing off in front of the mirror by yourself, so I'm only slightly interested."
Lesos smiled softly.
During the six months her clone spent with the Magical Girls, she became quite familiar with them.
Lesos even dared to do things that are usually only done between friends, like joking around.
However, mentioning this reminded Fang Ming of something, and he asked Lesos:
"Speaking of which, there's something I've wanted to ask for a long time."
"What's up?"
"Your relationship with the Magical Girls," Fang Ming said seriously, "If you've always been like this, standing on the side of the Magical Girls, there's no reason why your relationship with them should have deteriorated over these thousand years..."
This was a question that Fang Ming had kept buried deep in his heart.
Having spent half a year with Lesos's alter ego, Fang Ming was certain that if the Magical Girls set aside their prejudices against Witch and spent some time with Lesos Witch, even just a few days, Magical Girls would realize that although Lesos could be a bit sharp-tongued at times, she wasn't a bad person at heart.
Lesos has just been lonely for too long and is sometimes not very talkative. As long as she overcomes this shortcoming, the Magical Girls and Lesos should get along very well.
When this question was raised, Lesos remained silent for a long time.
Fang Ming waited a while, and seeing that Lesos did not answer, he spoke up:
