Chapter 562 The Power Of The [Command] Skill!
-----
We were holding off against the Demons quite great, it wasn't just out of luck, everyone had grown stronger themselves.
The Insectoid Demons were very strong though, but thanks to the many boosts to our stats such as our recent level ups, the equipment everyone was wearing, and the power enhancement to our weapon's attack power and our armors defensive power due to Alberta's Skills, we were holding on quite well…
And that's without even counting in the boost to stats that Commanding did, which stacked four times with mine, Eleanora, Hendrick, and Saphira's Skills, which they had acquired through Skill Link.
"Do not give up, keep fighting!" Eleanora commanded.
"You can do it!" Saphira said.
"Do not disappoint me, children." Hendrick giggled.
"They're falling back, everyone! Keep pushing!" I roared.
FLAAASH!
Everyone began overflowing with temporary power as their stats began to grow larger and larger, easily breaking through the difference in stats we had against these powerful Insectoid Demons.
Ding!
[The Effect of your [Command: Lv5] Skill has been activated, all your Allies beneath your command receive a temporary +50% Stat Boost]
[The Effect of Eleanora's [Command: Lv5] Skill has been activated, all your Allies beneath your command receive a temporary +50% Stat Boost]
[The Effect of Saphira's [Command: Lv5] Skill has been activated, all your Allies beneath your command receive a temporary +50% Stat Boost]
[The Effect of Hendrick's [Command: Lv5] Skill has been activated, all your Allies beneath your command receive a temporary +50% Stat Boost]
I cannot receive the buff of my own Command, but I could receive the buff from my three other spirits, as I obeyed their very simple commands of keep fighting, I rushed forward, slashing away swarms of Insectoid Demons one after the other with both my Spear and my Demonic Arm.
SLASH! SLASH! SLAAASH!
"You damn brat! Who do you think you are?!" The Insectoids roared, rushing towards me and attacking me fiercely.
CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!
An enormous humanoid beetle Insectoid Demon attacked, his enormous claws shaped as fists unleashed a barrage of attacks that shook the ground, but I easily evaded them through Shadow Sneak and Shadow Manipulation combined together.
And then, I utilized Shadow Threads to wrap around his smaller legs supporting his gigantic body, throwing him off balance as I wrapped them tightly.
BAAAM!
"GRAAAH?!"
I quickly jumped over his shell as I pointed Gluttony into his head, engulfing Gluttony on large quantities of Ki and Mana, the already evolved spear became even fiercer looking, roaring like a berserker beast.
"ROAR!"
CRAAASH!
The spear suddenly shapeshifted as it generated an enormous and vicious jaw, tearing apart the beetle insectoid's head apart and munching it, gulping it at the same time as it quickly turned back to its original shape.
I was left slightly surprised, and so did all the other Insectoids, seeing such a monstrous weapon made them step back in fear.
"W-What sort of weapon is that? A cursed weapon of such caliber shouldn't belong in the hands of a mere human child…!"
"Only Demon Generals have those!"
"Y-YOU…!"
The swarm quickly attacked me once they regained their composure, only to see my monstrous Demonic Arm extending like a mantle of thin flesh and engulfing the entire beetle's body, gulping it and absorbing it.
FLAAASH!
And then I felt the Demonic Arm slowly improving and growing stronger, its muscles bulged and several veins spread through the rest of my chest, as the armor of the Beelzefly was improved using the hard (although not as hard as the Beelzefly's armor) armor of the Beetle.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
I easily blocked the Insectoids attacks using their sharp claws using my Demonic Arm, which suddenly grew several layers of exoskeleton and insect-like legs, it was rather gross, but this was the path of power I was walking through anyways.
And it was only growing stronger as it devoured more and stronger demons, it was a rather vicious being of its own, a living being and also part of my body. It improved upon my physique, but it also developed its own unique powers. If I had more of these, I could certainly become stronger… but it would probably corrupt my body.
One is my limit for now.
CRAAASH! CRAAASH!
I easily sliced and tore apart the two Lesser Beelzeflies that flew towards me while firing shadow bullets and demonic beams, with both my overpowered spear and my demonic arm.
BAAAM! BAAAM!
I quickly tried to absorb their corpses, but the Demonic Arm seemed to chew on them rather boringly, as if it wasn't enough with Lesser Beelzeflies.
However, it quickly absorbed the Shard once it saw it. It might be a small Archdemon Core Shard, but it had plentiful of leftover power.
The arm suddenly began to glow brightly as the Grimoire showed me its changes.
Ding!
[Your [Demonic Arm] has developed further!]
[Your [Demonic Arm] has gained its own Pseudo Physique, its Tier has been synchronized with your main Physique!]
[Your [Demonic Arm] has developed a Demonic Core!]
[All Your Stats have increased!]
[You can now see its abilities within your Status.]
-----
[Demonic Arm Abilities]: [Tier 4: Demon Core] [Tier 4: Mutation] [Tier 4: Demonic Predation] [Tier 4: Strengthened Oni's Muscles] [Tier 4: Fearsome Demonic Claws] [Tier 4: Reinforced Beelzefly's Exoskeleton]
-----
Oh? This is quite interesting. It seems it both gained a Physique of its own and even a Demonic Core? I can feel the demonic power crystalizing within it, and its physique merely melded with me, making mine stronger at the same time… how amusing.
"Kill him, he'll eventually grow tired!" Roared the Insectoids, as they showered me with demonic magic.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
However, I quickly generated a Spiritual Barrier combining Eleanora and Saphira's powers together, as the two arrived at each of my sides. At the same time, Hendrick conjured a powerful cloud of purple fog, containing the deadly poison that can easily weaken or even kill the Insectoids.
"Master, are you okay? You seem to be spacing out a bit…!" Eleanora said.
"Papa? That ugly arm's growing bigger?" Asked Saphira.
"Yeah, it simply has evolved… And now if I absorb this as well…"
FLUOOSH!
The Arm quickly grew even stronger.
