Hmm? Someone’s there?
Roy had specifically chosen a remote corner in the camp so that he would not be disturbed. Unexpectedly, someone still wandered here.
He turned his head and found a succubus standing not far behind him. This succubus was one of the high-level demons that Xeron had summoned. She might have noticed Roy hiding in the shade of the tree while passing by. She stared at the strange fruit in Roy’s hand.
Roy ignored her and bit into the Dark-Dark Fruit. An inexplicable taste spread in his mouth, making Roy’s entire expression change!
The concept of the Dark-Dark Fruit came from Roy’s memory, and in his memory, Devil Fruits were disgusting. However, Roy did not know how disgusting it was specifically. The system could not make any accurate references, so it simply defined it literally.
The system actually integrated all sorts of disgusting references from a simple ‘disgusting’ phrase. The taste was unimaginable!
If this Dark-Dark Fruit was the enhanced version, then the disgusting taste also enhanced! After taking a bite, his whole face distorted!
He wanted to spit the fruit out of his mouth, lie on the ground, and vomit a few liters of bile.
Roy was regretting it. He had only remembered to eliminate the Devil Fruit’s weaknesses. How could he have forgotten to improve its taste?
But in order to obtain the power within it, Roy forced it down and swallowed the first bite even though it was disgusting.
Seeing how a mere low-rank demon was ignoring her, the succubus was very annoyed. How dare he ignore the words of a high-level demon? Who gave him the courage?
The succubus had yet to reach high-rank demon. Strictly speaking, she could only be regarded as the top of the middle rank. But for low-rank demons, she was a high-level demon...
Although the succubus was angry, her instincts told her that the strange fruit in Roy’s hand should be something good! This low-rank demon actually ignored her and bit into it as though he could not wait. Moreover, he was hiding in this remote corner and avoiding others. If it wasn’t something good, why would he do that?
With that thought, the succubus was convinced and immediately walked toward Roy.
She also saw Roy’s distorted expression, but she did not believe it one bit. Is this an act to prevent me from taking it away from him?
The succubus sneered inwardly. Kid, your acting is too excessive. I knew it was fake at a glance! What can taste so bad?
Therefore, after coming in front of Roy, she stretched her hand out. “Give it to me!”
Snatching something from someone of a lower hierarchy seemed so natural. This was a law of life for demons. Roy knew this, which was why he had not hesitated to take a bite just now. Roy acted as though he was reluctant to hand over the fruit to the succubus. “My Lady, it’s just a strange fruit!”
“I’ll know if it’s a fruit once I taste it myself!” The Succubus snorted coldly.
“Are you sure you want to?” Roy asked again unwillingly. “Don’t say I didn’t warn you. It’s really disgusting!”
“Nonsense!” the Succubus shouted. “I’ll be the one to make that judgment!”
“All right! Since you insist.” Roy handed over the fruit ‘unwillingly’ to her.
It did not matter anyway since he obtained the power after the first bite. What was left was a super disgusting skin!
After receiving the Dark-Dark Fruit, the succubus snorted. A low-rank demon is a low-rank demon after all, no matter how tall he grew. She then gazed at the fruit in her hand. The succubus became even more certain that this was not something common. At least, she had never seen a fruit like this. She took a bite without another word.
Roy’s distorted expression seemed to be contagious. It appeared on the succubus’s face as well!
“Woou!!!” The succubus, unlike Roy, spat it out immediately. She even collapsed to the ground, vomiting her bile out!
Roy came closer and asked, “My Lady, are you all right? I told you that it was really disgusting!”
“You!!!” Regret stabbed the succubus’s heart. She had not thought this low-rank demon was telling the truth. She wanted to unleash her unhappiness on Roy, but that uncomfortable feeling made her vomit again.
She felt as though she had vomited a week’s worth of food, making her feel hollowed out!
“I’ll get some water for you!” Roy saw everything he wanted to see. The disgusting food was not just consumed by him, lifting him into a good mood. After saying this, he ran away.
Roy did not return!
But that succubus actually believed him and sat there vomiting while waiting for Roy to get water for her. She only realized she was fooled half an hour later when her bile was all out of her system!
After leaving, Roy was inspecting his transformation with satisfaction. He tested out his ability just a little. The Dark-Dark Fruit was exactly the same as the original version. Roy’s claws were filled with smoke with just a little use of the power!
In his attributes, the Dark-Dark Fruit had appeared in his Loaded Materials. He did not obtain another skill like Psychokinesis when he used T-Virus to strengthen himself. Roy guessed that it would only appear if he developed the power of the Devil Fruit. After all, in his memory, the Devil Fruit abilities did not appear automatically after the users ate them.
He returned to the camp and to Xeron. Xeron was restoring his magic power. He felt a sense of urgency since he nearly used up all his magic power to summon so many high-level demons.
Most of the demons he summoned crowded together and formed a small circle. They were bored out of their minds.
After some time, the succubus finally returned with a green face. She saw Roy among this group of demons and strode up to him angrily, prepared to question him. However, she stopped in her tracks when she realized Roy was not far from Xeron.
She could do whatever she wanted in front of Roy, a low-rank demon, but she too had to behave herself and obey the rules in front of a high-rank demon like Xeron. This was a rule formed by the demon race after millions of years. Xeron was obviously resting now. She would be digging her grave if she were to dare to disturb him.
Therefore, she could only grit her teeth and crave this into her heart while staring at Roy resentfully.
Roy naturally saw her intense gaze, but he did not take it to heart. He stayed around Xeron precisely for this moment.
He had never actually thought of getting water for this succubus. To Roy, a battle was coming soon. These high-level demons Xeron summoned were not going to have an easy time. While Xeron told them a battle was approaching, he had failed to tell them about the scale of it. If an ambush from the elves were to really come, what awaited these high-level demons would be the high-level troops of the elves!
The dragons might be involved too. It was unknown whether these high-level demons could survive, so why would he need to worry about the feelings of this succubus?
As such, Roy was enjoying the expression on the succubus’s face caused by not being able to do anything to him...
Time passed by, and Xeron’s magic power finally recovered a little. However, when he got up and was about to order his troops to retreat, an arrow flew by and interrupted him!
The arrow directly penetrated the body of a little demon and pinned it onto a tree, showing its strength! And this arrow was like a signal for the rain of arrows that followed!
The elves were here! This was their standard offensive opening!
