Chapter 1081: Archdemon Crown
-----
The impure blood of an Archdemon, a poison for most beings in the entire universe, even vampires themselves would never be able to drink such blood without melting and falling apart into pieces.
However, it is extremely hard to get, in my previous life I did drink it from the original source, but right now, they are not coming her personally, after all they're all sealed inside of hell. Even if their avatars or vessels are very similar to them, they're not really the archdemons themselves anyways.
They only harbor their souls, and might mutate and become similar to them, but it's not them, their true biological bodies are on another whole level completely…
But this bottle of blood, it says it is actually just Mammon's blood. How was the Grimoire even capable of creating this?
Did it use Mammon's soul to refine and synthetize it into his blood instead? Is that even possible to begin with?
Well, if this is authentic or not, I can find out very easily, just by drinking it.
After breakfast, I moved to my room for some privacy, and I drank all ten bottles one after another, Eleanora, who had accompanied me, was looking at me while drooling.
"T-That blood smells so good! C-Can I have some?"
"Already done, sorry."
Before she asked, I finished drinking the last bottle.
"Don't worry, my soul should be much tastier- Ugh?!"
BA DUM!
BA DUM!
BA DUM!
The moment I consumed all the blood, and my body finally began to assimilate its components, I felt like I was going to have a heart attack, my heart began beating incredibly fast, making my senses sharpen out of nowhere and making me feel slightly dizzier.
I resisted the sensations as I felt powerful Archdemonic energies rush across my veins and entire body, my Aura surged endlessly as it grew like demonic flames.
My Demon Core and my Demon Arm developed rapidly, but strangely enough, my Physique and my Magic Circle, not even my Soul, gained any power.
It was as if everything was directed only to my demonic body parts.
"Hah… Not bad for my first taste in this life."
Ding!
[You have absorbed a large quantity of high quality Archdemon Blood!]
[Your Demonic Body Parts have absorbed it all to grow stronger!]
[Your Demonic Arm has absorbed all of the energies and the Demon Core inside of it as well!]
[Your [Demon Core]: [Gluttonous King of Wrathful Greed Demon Core (Tier 5: Rank 9)] has Ranked Up and evolved into [Vampire Demon King of Wrathful and Greedy Gluttony Demon Core Tier 7: Rank 1!]
[You gained +24.000 to All Stats except Mana, Divinity, and Spirit.]
[Your Demon Core has evolved into a Developing Archdemon Core! You can now harness the Sin Fragments you've gathered and combine them to create an Archdemon Crown!]
[You unlocked the [Demonic Arm Ability]: [Archdemon Crown]!]
"An Archdemon Crown…?"
I felt surprised, nothing like that had ever happened in my previous life despite having drank Demon Blood, and even Archdemon Blood before.
What made it change now? Is it the Demon Core? Perhaps the Demonic Arm too, this thing has developed into its own Demon by itself, one attached and fused to my body.
It has its own separate soul, a soul I constantly use to unleash devastating demonic power, which has been tamed by me and that is already fused into my own soul anyways.
Any Will it could have developed was suppressed and destroyed, leaving it both "intelligent" and at the same time, lacking an actual Ego.
And it is for the best to keep it like that, I wouldn't want my demonic arm to suddenly attempt to possess me.
"You obtained an Archdemon Crown?" Eleanora wondered, looking above my head. "Well… this is just… shocking, to say the least."
"Hm?" Confused of what she said, I looked up.
And there it was, a crown made of red light, floating above my head.
Right now it had no horns, it resembled a ring made of red and white colored light.
However, it had small areas inside of it, where I could "attach" demonic sins inside, and their Sin Jewels, crystallization of Sin Power that the Archdemons use to gain powerful Abilities or Authorities.
The Crown seems tied to my Demon Core growth, and right now it only has two areas where I can attach Sin Jewels…
The stronger my sins become, the stronger the crown will grow, gaining more circles, even.
"Hmm, this is unexpected," I said. "But a welcome surprise anyways… As for crystalizing a Sin Jewel, my Sins by themselves are only fragments I ate out of the Demons, the only genuine and semi-complete one is Greed, from Mammon. The other Fragments of Gluttony, Lust, and Wrath are incomplete… Can I still use them to crystalize Sin Jewels?"
"Wouldn't it be worth a try?" Eleanora wondered. "Also, perhaps you could try breaking the mold somewhat! Perhaps using Divinities could also work? Why not try something outside the box?"
"I always do that, particularly… but you're not wrong about that, Eleanora," I nodded. "I have an awful lot of Developing Divinities now. And I might get more later.
Sin Jewels are "Cores" to the Archdemonic Crown, once connected to it, they'll develop a Demonic Authority or a Demonic Ability, or sometimes both… They can't be switched out once placed, so I'll be locked to them forever but… Let's try."
Chapter Find:
I sat cross-legged, gathering the essence of the Sins inside of my Soul. The Partially Complete Greed was the strongest, overflowing with demonic energy and power. Then there were the other small guys, the largest was Gluttony, still fragmented and small and weak anyways. Then there was Wrath and Lust, both were too small too.
Although one of them alone wouldn't even let me make a single Sin Jewel without waiting for months of meditation, by combining their essence together, things become different.
FLAAASH!
By merely thinking about it and imagining it, the thing began to already happen, the essence of the sins started to materialize in my hands!
SPARK! CRACKLE!
However, it was unstable, not enough power…
I guess this is where experimentations begin.
"Hendrick, Eleanora, imbue the Divine Power of the Divinities you carry into the Sin Jewel, now!"
Hendrick was summoned by my side, rapidly obeying me with Eleanora.
"Yes sir!"
"Very well!"
FLUOSH!
