1626 Rank 4 Demon Duke


-----


It took me some time to recover after that battle. I had to drink fifty Soul Elixirs continuously to close all the wounds on my soul completely. Unlike my body, which could regenerate almost endlessly thanks to my Unique Skill: Immortal Body, it wasn"t the same for my soul. My Soul did not inherit such a power, therefore, if it was destroyed, it was game over for me. I would die and no skill would save me from that fate.


The pieces of soul I lost were thankfully not storing memories, so I didn"t lose a sense of self. However, I still lost almost 30% of my Soul Ma.s.s, a tremendous amount of it. Through the Elixirs, I was able to heal the wounds, though the Soul Ma.s.s I lost didn"t regenerate completely, I had to eat Soul Beast meat to fully recover.


But even then, my Soul Ether Rank didn"t decrease, thankfully. I"ll have to eat a big feast of Soul Beast meat once I"m done checking what I earned.


Because it was a decent amount, a Rank 4 Demon King Seed was no joke.

I didn"t get any new Ability out of it, but all of its effects were increased, some even evolved. I guess you could call that the new effect? The damage reduction of Demonic Energy flowing through my body had already reached minus a hundred percent, meaning I could no longer take any more damage from that.


But now, that effect evolved into absorption. Now if I let Demonic Energy flow through my body and soul, instead of hurting it, the speed of regeneration of my Health and Soul increases by twenty percent!


This is amazing, with this I can begin healing my soul right away!


"Alright…"


I let the Demonic Energy inside of my Demon King Seed flow into my soul on several fiery and burning red streams.


Such a sight would have hurt me before, and it would have caused tremendous agony, but right now, it was different.


There was no pain, but a fiery feeling of invigoration.


Slowly, my Soul"s strength and ma.s.s were being healed, and within minutes, all the Soul Ma.s.s I had lost was regenerated!


"T-This is incredible…!"


Although it only works with my own internal Demonic Energy, it was an amazing way to heal my soul midbattle!
