Chapter 93 - Reward




Chapter 93: Reward
Atlas Studios
After the mist of the Gate of the Abyss dissipated, Roy found himself back at his starting point in the Abyss, but Demon Lord Rogeros had already disappeared.
Due to this, Roy had no choice but to bring Fat Tiger back to the place of refinement where he had promoted and then contact the high-rank demon Edrach to submit the mission.
The place of refinement was still the same. From time to time, low-rank demons would come and enter the pool to complete their promotion. As for those who failed to promote, once they left the barrier, they would immediately be hunted down by the middle-rank demons loitering outside. Such a unique ecological cycle, who knew how many existed in the Abyss

After arriving here, Roy poured his magic power into a demon gate according to the method that Edrach had left. Soon, the demon gate was ‘living’ again, and the aura of the high-rank demon Edrach appeared.
“It’s you. Looks like you’ve completed the execution mission?” Although it had been a few months, Edrach recognized Roy at a glance. After all, frost demons were rare in the Abyss, and Roy’s execution mission had even alarmed Demon Lord Rogeros, so it was difficult for Edrach not to have a deep impression of him.
Roy placed the damaged Balotan Pillar, along with its base, and CĂ©sar’s frozen head in front of the demon gate. As for CĂ©sar’s soul, Roy had already kept it, so he naturally would not take it out.
“Is this the demon-human body that fellow created?” Edrach was Rogeros’s servant and had naturally heard about this matter. However, he was quite curious as to how Roy had killed CĂ©sar. In his impression, a demon-human body was usually quite difficult to deal with, so he asked about the details.
Roy did not hide anything and told him everything.
Edrach was surprised. “In order to track CĂ©sar’s whereabouts, you actually know how to cooperate with humans?”
Indeed, this was the most important part. The Balotan Pillar had been damaged, and the memory crystal could no longer locate CĂ©sar’s position. If Roy had not found the Allies to obtain information, it would have taken him a long time to find CĂ©sar alone. This way, even if he could find him in the end, he might have had to face a demon-human CĂ©sar who had recovered his magic power!
A demon-human body with magic power and a demon-human body without magic power were completely different.
“What’s wrong? Can’t we do this?” Roy asked.
“No, no problem!” Edrach said. “Demons are always unscrupulous in their actions. Never mind cooperating with humans, there are even examples of working together with angels in history. I’m just surprised that you, a demon who has just promoted from low rank, could adapt to the situation of a different world.”
Edrach said this for a reason. As demons were born powerful, they always had a sense of racial superiority when facing humans. They would treat the weak humans like ants and were unwilling to try to understand them
 Such situations often appeared in demons who had yet to experience much in different worlds. They had to experience many different worlds before they understood that humans had their own strengths.
Moreover, when trying to understand humans, they would discover that their personalities were complex and varied. If they could make good use of their complex personalities, their actions would often be simple and smooth.
For example, when demons tried to conquer a world, they would usually encounter resistance from the humans of this world. However, these humans also had conflicts and hatred between one another. If they could take advantage of these conflicts and hatred, they could even sow discord between them and cause them to fight

Such ways of doing things usually only appeared in those experienced demons. Roy was a newly-promoted middle-rank demon, so it was obvious that he had not experienced too many other worlds. But as soon as he arrived in that world, he quickly figured out the situation of the humans in that world and made use of the hostility between humans to help him complete the execution mission. It was very impressive.
“It seems that I didn’t see you wrongly back then!” Edrach said with satisfaction. “Perhaps in the future, there will be a place for you in the world of high-rank demons.”
“You flatter me, Your Excellency!” Roy pretended to be humble and asked, “I’ve completed the mission. May I know what my reward is?”
“I’ll give it to you!” Edrach was used to the straightforwardness of demons, so he used his magic power to teleport away the Balotan Pillar and CĂ©sar’s head and quickly gave Roy his reward.
Three high-quality fallen souls emitting pitch-black light, a pitch-black metal block weighing more than fifty kilograms, and a burning black fire seed!
“What are these?”
Roy was not unfamiliar with fallen souls. In fact, he had already guessed some of his rewards earlier, and they definitely included souls. However, he did not expect that Rogeros would give him fallen souls. It seemed that the demon lord was indeed rich. Three fallen souls were extremely rich rewards for ordinary demons.
However, since Roy could use ordinary souls to transmute high-quality souls with the Horadric Cube, he did not care too much about the fallen souls. His attention was on the remaining two items.
“They’re Abyss demon iron and a hellfire fire seed!” Edrach said. “These two things are from the lower levels of the Abyss. You middle-rank demons usually won’t be able to come into contact with them. However, the incident with CĂ©sar this time alarmed Lord Rogeros, so these two items can be considered additional rewards from the lord!”
“Really!” Roy understood and asked, “What are these two things for?”
“Abyss demon iron is usually used to forge demon weapons!” said Edrach. “Looking at your bare hands, you probably haven’t made your own weapon, right? Then you can use this Abyss demon iron to fuse with your soul fragment to make your weapon. Fifty kilograms should be enough for you!”
“Then, is this hellfire fire seed used to forge the Abyss demon iron?” Roy asked.
“Yes and no!” Edrach said. “Abyss demon iron will indeed melt under the calcining of hellfire, but the fire seed is for you to fuse with!”
“What do you mean?” Roy did not understand.
“You’ll only be able to use hellfire after the fusion. Do you think that tiny fire seed can melt so much Abyss demon iron?” said Edrach.
“But the problem is, I’m a frost demon!” Roy was a little confused. “Can I fuse with hellfire with different attributes?”
“Uh, it’s indeed impossible to fuse
” Edrach said slightly awkward. “However, this is the reward that Lord Rogeros asked me to pass to you. I think he might have mixed things up
 In short, the rewards given by the lord can’t be changed. If you can’t fuse with it, you can let that servant hellhound of yours use it! Hmm, perhaps the hellfire the lord gave you was originally meant for your hellhound
”
Roy looked at Fat Tiger and was a little confused. Fat Tiger did have a fire-attribute head, so it could probably be used.
“Then, how do you fuse with this hellfire fire seed?” Roy asked.
“It’s very simple. Eat it. The fire seed of hellfire is a flame of life!” Edrach said. “Generally speaking, demons who know how to control flames are compatible with hellfire.”
“Is it dangerous?” Roy asked.
“Rarely! Unless it’s like you. Having exact opposite attributes is dangerous,” Edrach said.
Roy felt a lot more at ease hearing this.
In fact, hellfire fire seeds came from the volcanoes in the lower levels of the Abyss. They were not rare, but low-rank and middle-rank demons could not obtain them because they could not reach the lower levels. Most demons could control the flames with magic power, so hellfire could basically fuse with them.
This allowed Roy to discover the benefits of working for these high-level demons. Souls were secondary. These things that were unique to the lower levels were not things that he could obtain at the moment. The Abyss demon iron and hellfire fire seed might be considered staple goods for high-level demons, but for Roy, they were relatively precious.
After explaining, Edrach left. After his power disappeared, Roy quickly put away the three fallen souls, the Abyss demon iron, and the fire seed. The smell exuded by the fallen souls had already attracted the attention of the nearby middle-rank demons. While Edrach’s power was still there, they did not dare to approach, but as soon as Edrach left, these fellows began to stir.
Looking at these middle-rank demons surrounding him, Roy called Fat Tiger and flew into the sky.
The demons who could not fly could only remain on the ground and stare. However, in the sky, a bunch of winged demons stopped Roy, but Roy and Fat Tiger killed some of them to open a path and rushed out.
After leaving the place of refinement, Roy returned to his original territory with Fat Tiger. However, because Roy had been away for some time, a middle-rank demon had occupied it.
Roy had no choice but to fight this middle-rank demon, kill him, and regain his territory.

Only then did Roy calm down and study the rewards.
It had to be said that the rewards that Rogeros had given were quite generous. Most of the time, when middle-rank demons worked for high-level demons, they were unlikely to receive rewards like Roy’s. Usually, they would only receive some souls. But this time, he had pursued CĂ©sar across worlds, and it was Rogeros who had personally promised to add more rewards, which was why Roy obtained the two additional items.
Roy picked up the Abyss demon iron. The weight of over fifty kilograms was already very light to him. He could see that this was an iron ingot that had been refined and not iron ore. This weight was indeed enough to create a weapon that was easy to use

However, is there anything special about this Abyss demon iron?
Roy wondered
