Chapter 134 ~Intermission~ Status updates and analysis.

(POV: Lumiere)

Hey!

Allow me to introduce myself, Lumiere, the bastard child of the king.

As if fate found amusement in toying with my ambitions, I was betrothed to a goddess...

Twice...

And both times in less than a minute.

Furthermore, I broke a wretched curse that had plagued an entire race for nothing short of fifty long, tormenting years.

I also constructed a city from the ground up. Fought and defeated the Minotaur Lord, Fenghis Rhan and became the ruler of the north-eastern region, now known as the Silva Citadel.

I was also engaged to the Beast King?s daughter, Eris Fergonius, a walking disaster.

Now, here I was, seated comfortably in my lavish office, poised to document my extraordinary escapades upon these precious, invaluable sheets of paper that I managed to obtain.

As I dipped my quill into the decadent inkwell, I etched my own name onto the parchment.

Ah, the sheer satisfaction.

But why stop there? I contemplated for a moment, struck by a brilliant notion. Of course, I must immortalize the names of my enchanting female companions upon this parchment.

Pause. Breathe. Reflect.

I reclined upon my regal chair, indulging in a well-deserved moment of respite.

An entire week had meandered by since the attack on the illustrious city of Zarbon. In the tranquility of this interim, our devoted collective simply awaited the awakening of Lirien. Alas, I had deemed it prudent to abstain from grilling Isadora about her equally enigmatic connection to said Lirien until the opportune moment.

A clap of the hands, and my updated status appeared.

"Somehow, I feel like Serena?s is way better.."

Thanks to absorbing Valtara's Destruction Core, she was able to evolve into a completely new species. However, I was still bothered about the current political status of the Cross Kingdom.

Then again, the only key to happiness was to cease worrying about things that were out of your control, or will.

Every grygan evolved to the rank of high grygan. And naturally, their powers burgeoned to unimaginable heights. But among them, Fasit and Sangria emerged as supreme grygans.

The minotaurs, too, experienced a metamorphosis of equal magnitude.

Skarz, their stalwart and unwavering leader, was now a supreme minotaur.

Currently, Fasit, Sangria, and Skarz wielded an astonishing MP of 17,200.

At this point, they could clash fists with those so-called battle gods.

Also, Fasit told me something about Curse Kings.

She revealed a harsh truth seldom spoken of – Curse Kings were forbidden from having subordinates, for the weight of their cursed existence would inevitably inflict unrelenting torment upon those who served them.

Luckily, however, the dawn of my evolution brought forth an unexpected boon – a sacred benefaction bestowed upon all my subordinates, a divine seal known as Del Silva's Crest of Purification. Its power shielded them against curses.

All my spirits evolved to become great spirits while Umbra was already a supreme spirit. Just a few more evolutions and he would become a spirit king or emperor that also had demon lord candidacy.

"Scary.."

I swiped the status board to check Serena?s.

"Honestly, I think Serena's pretty jacked with these ability. Stellaria can say whatever she wants, but I think Serena's pretty much stronger than her at this point."

That was the case, but I ordered Serena not to use the Black Dragon?s power. I didn't know what would happen if its aura was sensed by someone unwanted or maybe worse, it corrupted her and turned her into some sort of rampaging monster.

"Hmm, I should try using [Purification Magic] on her some time. But I don't know what that would do exactly.."

I swiped to Isadora's status next.

Name: Isadora Del Silva

『Relative Barrier』

Summons: True-treasure Demon Golem.

Sacred Benefaction: Del Silva's Crest of Purification.

I chuckled a bit.

"I remember fighting that golem of hers in the grygan labyrinth with Ophelia, then again, I did most of the fighting... that was pretty fun."

Naturally, Isadora also had the potential to evolve into a demon lord. In other words, she was a demon lord candidate, like me and Umbra.

I swiped to Fasit?s status.

--- Status ---

Name: Fasit Del Silva

Race: Supreme Grygan

Titles: Crimson Witch

Class: High Mage

Physical Strength: 1,105/1,105

MP: 17,200/17,2000

Unique Skill:

『Burnout』

Sacred Benefaction: Fire Demon's Grace. Del Silva's Crest of Purification.

"Hmm.."

I didn't necessarily know what 『Burnout』 could do, but from what Fasit told me it would only be effective when she'd exhausted all her mana. In other words, it was a skill used only in desperate time.

Name: Sangria Del Silva

Race: Great Grygan

Class: Great Ranger

Physical Strength: 1,201

Unique Skill:

『Marksman』

Sacred Benefaction: Del Silva's Crest of Purification.

Sangria?s new unique skill was pretty much awesome. With it, she could almost never miss a shot, and if she did, the causality manipulation that the unique skill had could change the outcome.

"Overall, I don't think Sangria gained anything flashy, but her abilities were strong or weak depending on how she used it. As such, she doesn't have a threat level like most of us do..."

Oh yeah, threat levels.

Well, the stronger one got, the higher the chances you'd unlock something called a threat level. The moment you unlocked this meant the Church of the Divine Union from the God/Welkin Continent had their eyes on you.

I was already on their list now, so there was no escaping them.

I swiped to Umbra?s status.

--- Status ---

Name: Umbra

Race: Supreme Spirit

Title: Demon lord candidate

Class: Undivine Summon

Physical Strength: 4,200

MP: 29,000/29,000

[Magic Detect] (A), [Demon Wings], [Demon Lord?s Ambience] (E), [The Ruthless One] (E), [Enhanced Senses] (A), [Spirit Aura] (A), [Telepathy] (A), [Mana Pressure] (A)

Unique Skill:

『Black Hole』

Sacred Benefaction: Del Silva?s Crest of Purification.

"Umbra's well... Umbra... you'll think he's a normal powerful butler, but he's jacked as fu- either way, he's a decent and powerful subordinate."

The second strongest spirit in my possession would be Ignis, the fire spirit.

Name: Skarz Del Silva

Race: Supreme Human-Minotaur

Class: High Magic Knight

Physical Strength: 3,200

MP: 17,200/17,200

Unique Skill:

『Cleave Multiplier』

Sacred Benefaction: Del Silva's Crest of Purification.

I yawned, slowly getting exhausted.

"Yeah, Skarz?s unique skill's pretty cool. The number of times he spins his blade in continuous rotation increases his physical strength and cutting power by +10 give or take. We haven't had the chance to test it out yet. But, we would soon..."

Magic Knight class was really rare, so him being in that class made him quite special.

His race was complex but not so much.

Great Human + Great Minotaur = Supreme Human-Minotaur.

Which was still the equivalent of either category of races.

"Alright, that's enough for tonight Lumiere... time to sleep..."

I stood up from my chair, gently scratching my buttocks as I walked.

"I should check on Serena and Isadora..." I sighed, "...and Stellaria."
