The Damned Demon

Chapter 80 Hell Prince, Prince Of The Tower

Sabina's face still had a faint blush as her eyes glowed with a feverish and bloodthirsty light. She licked her lower lip as she stared at Asher and then asked the Head Warden, "Since he survived the impossible…what kind of category would his bloodline fall into?"

"For him to defeat Hell Maiden…a spirit from the Abyss, only a bearer of the mythical Immortal bloodline can defeat her. It should be impossible for anyone among us to possess such a bloodline, but…it is what it is," Duncan said as he took a deep breath, trying to calm down the torrent of thoughts in his head.

"I knew it…Something about his blood always seemed unique…" Sabina mumbled with a squint. However, she furrowed her brows when she felt her mother's gaze on her, wondering what she wanted to talk about with her.

Edmund Thorne's expression became ugly as he also heard the Head Warden's words. That worm actually had an Immortal bloodline?? Impossible!

He felt as if his head was spinning from the realization and felt his heart shudder for some reason.

But suddenly, he felt a firm grip on his arm as his mother's stern voice echoed beside his ears, "Get a hold of yourself. This isn't the time to display weakness. This is a serious issue. We underestimated the wrong person, and it seems like the late demon king knew more than we gave him credit for. Now it makes sense…the marriage and everything…"

"Mother, I want to marry the royal consort. We can make a beautiful baby with an Immortal bloodline, can't we?" Silvia Valentine asked with a pout.

Naida Valentine sighed softly as she patted her daughter's hand, "Too bad he is already married to the queen, dear. But…when there is a will, there is always a way," She said with a knowing smile.

Silvia's brows raised as her eyes glowed.

Ceti's eyes were shaking ceaselessly as she suddenly remembered an image that came into her mind on the day of the celebration. Could all this be a coincidence? Where the hell was he really coming from?

But whatever it was, she felt a bad feeling that his cockiness was only going to increase and cause more trouble for her.

Asher was wondering why the chamber was not letting him go out when he won. And just as he wondered that, a dark scarlet light flashed in the chamber as Hell Maiden manifested again!

'No shit. She wants to fight again?' Asher knew these spirits were basically immortal and couldn't be really killed. But was she really planning to use that advantage against him because of losing against him? She can't be that petty.

The entire hall plunged into silence upon seeing her manifest again, and wondered what was going on. They were also extremely curious about what that mysterious reward was for passing the 7th summoning.

Asher didn't know what was going to happen, but he straightened his back and his eyes closed, prepared for anything.

The Hell Maiden smiled as she walked towards him, though Asher didn't take a step backward since he didn't feel any killing or battle intent from her.

She suddenly spoke in an ethereal voice that had a seductive charm, "Relax, Hell Prince. You are the first one to truly survive this trial, and I wish to reward you for the same…A reward which you would be the first and last person to receive."

Her voice was so charming that the demons standing outside, especially the men, felt their souls getting enraptured.

Hearing her call him 'Hell Prince', they weren't surprised since it was told in old stories and tales that the one who survives the 7th summoning would be known as the Hell Prince or the Prince of the Tower. They could only imagine the respect and honor he would gain by earning such a title.

"Sure. What is that reward going to be?" Asher asked with a narrowed gaze.

Hell Maiden curved her lips as she cupped his face, "My blood," Saying so, she suddenly kissed him, making Asher's brows raise upon feeling her soft-hot lips.

"Oooh…" Sabina puckered her lips upon seeing what was going on.

Rowena furrowed her brows upon seeing them kiss before everyone else.

But Asher stood still, and the next moment her cheeks glowed from within with a scarlet light. This light passed from her mouth and into Asher's mouth before spreading over his entire body, making every inch of his skin glow with a faint scarlet light.

Asher's eyes widened as he felt his blood dancing with excitement and could feel that his blood was undergoing some changes, including his mana circuit.

[ A part of Hell Maiden's fallen power has mixed with your bloodline ]

[ All stats +10% ]

[ Hell Maiden has strengthened your mana circuit ]

[ Level increased 5 -> 8 ]

[ She has bestowed you with an Immortal Grade Grimoire ]

"You can open your eyes now…" Her words echoed in his mind.

The moment he opened his eyes, he suddenly saw a dark scarlet light in the space beside him.

And from this light, a giant, flaming scarlet book made out of mana manifested. On the front of this book was the engraving of Hell Maiden's figure, and he didn't even have to guess that this was the Immortal Grade Grimoire she was giving him!

He had never seen an Immortal Grade Grimoire before and thought it was just a myth. But who knew he would be receiving one in his life as a demon.

Everybody outside was crying with envy upon seeing him receive such a mystical and devilish-looking grimoire.

They got confirmation from the Head Warden that this was an Immortal Grade Grimoire! Something even more powerful than the legendary grade!

Never in their lives did they expect one to exist, let alone see one with their own eyes.

Rebecca was biting her tongue, not wanting to believe what she was seeing, while a bead of sweat trickled down Edmund's temple.

Ceti was shaking her head, wondering why this pervert had to get all the good things. But she had to grudgingly admit…his bloodline and talent were apparently superior to everyone else.

The scarlet grimoire suddenly turned into a flash of light and entered Asher's glabella.

Hell Maiden broke the kiss as she looked at him and said, "The power I granted you will mix with your bloodline and provide you with benefits that not even I can predict."

"You won't regret this," Asher said with a confident curve of his lips.

If not for seeing her appearance before in his Hellbringer form, he would have been surprised upon seeing her 7 feet tall alluring flaming body standing before him and her four shimmering scarlet eyes looking at him.

Despite having a slime-like body, he never thought she would look this…bewitchingly beautiful. When the battle started before, he imagined a grotesque monster or something, considering how everyone was terrified of her, especially with the collective strength of all those monstrous demon spirits.

Still, he knew her true power was far more powerful than he could imagine.

"I know I won't. Until next time, Hell Prince," She said with a charming smile as her body diffused into embers and disappeared, and the chamber provided a way out for Asher to come out.
