Chapter 17 - Abrahel Curse

.

.

.

Backlines, Troll Emperor throne.

A massive Shadow Zone made by the Troll Witch suddenly engulfed me.

"This bitch, and why is she laughing all the time? (She's also extremely hot, what the fuck?)"

The Troll Champion flew near the Troll Witch.

"Well done, with this I don't need to hold back with this Demon!"

"Ugh… This is quite complicated… Minds, I am leaving this Zone to you to crack!"

Three tiny voices resounded inside Kireina's head.

"Yes!"

"We will do everything we can…!"

"I will handle this fight!"

Within a blink of an eye, The Strong Troll champion rushed directly in direction, using a myriad of strong buffs and magic shields!

"Magic shields? Where is he getting those?! Ah!"

In the distance, I saw the Witch casting multiple buffs on the Champion.

"So that's how they work, huh? The worst part about Zone type fields is that I am restricted to close combat or the specific element of the Zone, meaning, I can't cheese this out with Overpowering Sun! Damn it!" 

FLASH!

The Troll Champion came rushing from my back for a strong sneak attack, infusing a myriad of weapon skills on his only great sword!

"You are all open, Demon!"

FLASH!

"Eh?!"

"Do you think that it would really be that easy? (Uwaah! That was close, but thanks to Vampire Reflexes and Dark Moon 8 Senses I was able to avoid in time…)"

"Hmmph! I will go all out then!"

BOOOM!

A strong aura formed by countless stacked buffs exuded from the Troll Champion while it smiled like a maniac!

"Here I go again!"

FLASH!

While rushing ahead of me, the Troll handled his sword over his head and enchanted it with countless skills, making it increase to a massive and absurd size!

"TITAN SLASH!"

"Tssk! Do I have to use it already?! DARK MOON DEMONIC MODE!"

FLUOSH!

After casting the spell, my entire body was engulfed on a dark flame, and when it completely dissipated, multiple horns grew on my butterfly forehead, while my size tripled and my wings became sharp looking!

"Hmmm?! This power! Hahahaha! Wonderful! I can't expect anything less from a Demon!"

"Shut up! DEMONIC TOXIC FLAME CLAWS!"

FLASH!

Out of nowhere, a massive and grotesque demonic claw made of purple energy intercepted the powerful Troll Champion Blow!

CLASH!

"Ah! Ghh…! Paralysis?! And Poison?! What is this move?! Wait, Burn status too?!"

Suddenly, the Troll Champion was completely immobilized by a powerful stacking of three negative status ailments! 

The Witch quickly noticed such thing and casted a healing spell on the Champion!

FLASH!

"Thanks! Hahaha! Your tricks won't work on me!"

FLASH!

In this small window, I snuck behind the Witch and blasted her off with a strong Toxic Flame Claws!

"WH- GYAAAAAHHHHHH!!!"

BOOOOM!

Her delicate body crushed on the ground!

"What?! Noo!"

"Nnghh, shut up muscle brain… I am fine; I should had hide from the start…"

Flash

The Troll Witch quickly hid herself in her Shadow Zone.

"Damn it! That tricky bitch!"

"You are fighting me, Demon!"

FLASH!

The Troll Champion rushed to my side!

"TITAN SMASH!"

I quickly intercepted him with my Toxic Flame Claws, but!

BOOM!

"Guaaakkhh! What?!"

The Witch started to shoot magic projectiles at me while I fought the Champion!

"Agh, this fucking Witch!"

"Lazy Mind, how its going?"

"Not yet… I don't think it's even possible to crack this Zone skill, it's too overcomplicated!"

"Yeah! The Salamander Empress Zone skill was much simpler in nature! This Zone is a compound spell of countless spells put together, the only way out is killing or knocking that Witch out!"

"Very well… Change of plans, try to find where she is hiding!"

"Yes!"

As I exchanged strong blows with the Troll Champion I quickly noticed the blessings of being undead! 

"After intercepting so many strong blows, I still don't feel any pain on my muscles or even tiredness!"

CLASH!

"Ghh! This Demon never gets tired or what?!"

"TITAN SLASH!"

SLASH!

"Here! Toxic Flame Claws!"

CRASH!

Once again, the Troll Champion was inflicted with multiple status ailments!

"Now! Can I still use Shadow Thread Magic?!"

Suddenly, multiple threads made of shadows trapped the Troll Champion in place!

"Nnngh! What?!"

"There! Now, let's see if I can use this one too! Advanced Blood Control, Shared Blood!"

FLUOSH!

From the trapped Troll Champion, a big river of blood started to come from the inside of his wounds, making them even worse, I used this opportunity to drink his blood too!

[Blood Vitality effect has been applied, all your Stats boosted]

"Ah! There it is! Now take this! I will combine Shadow Threads and my Toxic Flame Claws!"

FLUOSH!

Countless shadow threads were infused in the grotesque claw, doubling its size and obtaining a deep black color!

"DEMONIC SHADOW CLAWS!"

"Damn it!"

CLASH!

A gigantic Shadow Clashed on the trapped Troll Champion, blowing him away several meters and completely shattering his armor!

"Guuuuuuuuuuuuahhhhh!"

The Witch was surprised about such power and quickly tried to heal the Champion, revealing her position for a split second!

"There you are!"

"Ahh! Impossible! How could you be so fast?!"

FLASH!

Using my enhanced Demonic Mode body, I quickly rushed in front of the witch and slashed her with my Shadow Claws!

CLASH!

"Gyyyaaaaaaaaahhh!"

The strong Shadow Claws were so potent that even her Magic Shield couldn't take it anymore and shattered, letting the Shadow Claw infiltrate and cutting out a big chunk of the Witch back and one arm!

Loads of blood spurred out of her big wounds, I quickly used this time to absorb the blood and enhance my stats even more.

"Aaaaahhhhh! It hurts! P-Please spare me!"

"Ah? Weren't you an Empress? Why are you so pathetic? At least give a better fight!"

The Witch started to cry out of pure pain, while she slowly tried to heal her wounds.

"Please… I am not used to fights, and I barely have any offensive magic, these are all my Emperor and Master orders, even if I am not so suitable for battle… I had to obey…"

"Hmm… I don't trust you at all! Thread Manipulation!"

FLASH!

Strong Shadow Threads trapped the moribund Troll Witch body.

"Ghh…! Damn… Demon…"

"Activate skill: Blood Pact!"

FLUOSH!

The big ritual of the blood pact started and both my blood and the witch united in a strong bright red glow!

[The servant relationship that High Troll Witch Empress Zehe has with High Necromancer Warlock Redgaria Frostbite has been successfully broken]

[A Blood Pact has been successfully created with: High Troll Witch Empress Zehe!]

[Amount of Slaves 41/50(+10)]

"Hmm? "Redgaria Frostbite", is that the name of your former Master?"

"…"

The Troll Wich was already unconscious.

"Oh right, they always go to sleep… Sigh"

Because the Witch was knocked out, the Shadow Zone quickly dissipated and I found myself very far away from the Troll Emperor position. 

"This bitch really put us far away…"

I healed her wounds and wrapped her around a strong magic thread, while I looked were was the Troll Champion and her lost arm.

"Ah there is the arm…"

I quickly devoured the Witch arm.

[You've learned the following Skills]

[High Shadow Manipulator Magic Core]

[Strong Shadow Shot: Level 1]

"Ah, that's all? I guess it's fair with just one arm, a pity that I won't be able to eat her whole"

"Minds, did you find him?"

"Uuuh, yes, there!"

"Ah! He's just running away in fear? That's so lame…" 

The once imposing Troll Champion ran as fast as he could, looking for his Emperor.

"Haahh… Haahhh… T-that demon, did he just enslave the Witch?! How can he just easily do that?"

FLASH!

"Found ya!"

"Gyaaaaaahh!"

"GATE OF BJARMIA!"

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"Gyaaaaaahhhh Noooo! Ple-"

SPLAT!

A water spear flew right in the middle of the Troll forehead, making it explode like a balloon.

Countless weapon shaped water projectiles stabbed the Troll multiple times, crushing his entire body to the ground and then slowly transforming it into minced meat!

"Ugh, it looks kind of gross… But thanks for the meal!"

I quickly ate the Troll Champion entire body, and my vitality became even stronger thanks to his fresh bloody meat.

[You've gained 7530 EXP]

[You've gained one level!] [Level 2/40 EXP 3030/4600]

[High Troll Warrior Champion Strong Stamina]

"That's it, some good looking skills… Wait, that's really it? This guy was lame, was all the struggling I had thanks to the Witch's buffs then? No way…"

I also thought about devouring his great sword, it seemed different to any sword I've seen crafted before in my cave, so I give it a shot. It tasted awfully bad and I felt like I was eating a very bitter rock.

[You've learned the following Skills]

[Earth Titan Greatsword]

[Greatsword Proficiency]

"Ah! That's compensates it a bit more…"

I left the wrapped Witch behind a tree while I used Illusion to camouflage her.

Then, I flew to the north were the Emperor was according to my minds.

.

.

.

Some moments ago, Emperor throne.

"Hahaha, well done Zaha, now the Demon won't have a chance versus those two working together!"

"Eh?!"

The Emperor quickly noticed that the strong pressure generated by the Possessed Celica slowly disappeared! 

"W-WHAT?! She lost?! How?! Impossible! I can't believe this! Those demon slaves, beat the Dark Awakening form, that means… They have a Light Magic user!"

"But they are only wolves and monkeys, how could there be such a rare Light Magic user in that group?!"

As time passed, the Emperor noticed that The Witch was taking too long.

"Is… everything okay?"

FLASH!

"Oh!"

"EEH?!"

The Troll Emperor saw how the Shadow Zone slowly dissipated, hoping for her Witch to bring the Demon's head with her, but to his surprise, he saw how the Demon finishing a Blood Pact with her, while his Troll Champion ran away in fear!

"No…"

As every plan crumbled in front of the Troll Emperor, his strong confidence and serious personality slowly dissipated.

"Aaahhh… Master… I have failed you… I need to… Run!"

.

.

.

"Main mind, there he is!"

"Oh, I see it!"

"Don't be so careless this time, we don't know what tricks this Emperor has up his sleeves" 

"I will take that into consideration… Activate skill: Overpowering Sun! No holding back this time!"

FLUOSH!

A massive ball made of concentrated lava appeared out of thin air, creating big heat waves and blocking the sun itself!

The Troll Emperor quickly noticed this and was completely shocked!

"Gaah! What is this?! Since when did this Demon have such high leveled magic? This wasn't in the reports!"

FLUOOSH!

The Overpowering Sun quickly moved over the Emperor position!

"Aahh! With such overwhelming power, do I even have a chance? I cannot nullify his magic like the Witch! What do I do?!"

Hiding inside the Overpowering Sun, I spoke to the Emperor.

"What? Did you really think that everything would go according around your stupid Master plans?"

"I… S-Shut up! How dare you talk like that about my benevolent Master, you filthy Demon!"

"Sigh… You know what? My army is having a pretty hard time there; I cannot bear to waste more time with you, so answer my questions, okay?"

"Ghh…!"

"Who is your Master?"

"I… My Master… I… I will never tell you, Demon!"

"Haahh…"

"Fight me fair! Come down here and fight for your life in a thrilling battle for who's the strongest!"

"…"

"What? Afraid that I can be stronger than you can in physical combat? Buwahahaha!"

"Do you really think that you can fool me like that?"

"Ghhh… B-But…"

"Should I enslave this idiot or eat him?"

My minds expressed their own opinions about the matter.

"This brainless monster won't answer anything anyways, making him a slave could prove useful but the benefits of eating are better in my opinion"

"Eat him… but do it efficiently…"

"What do you mean?"

"First drink his blood while he's still alive, it will make our Blood Vitality stronger, I have checked this skill, after consuming enough strong beings blood, our blood can evolve too"

"Oh? That's pretty interesting!"

I quickly used my Dark Thread manipulation and trapped the Emperor on place!

The Emperor tried to resist, going all out and casting his strongest active buffs, increasing his size to almost three times as big!

"Hmm? Struggling is pointless!"

"Gghh! Damned bastard, Demon!"

I used more MP and produced more threads to maintain the Emperor tightly on place. 

"Ghhh…!"

I used the threads to penetrate its bulging muscles and slowly extracted his crimson red blood.

"Gaaahhh! My blood? Are you a Vampire type Butterfly?! There's no such records as a being like you before!" 

The Emperor struggled pointlessly as I extracted his blood, but suddenly!

FLUOSH!

"I'll have to use this to run away then…!"

"Hmm?!"

A strong and thick aura engulfed the Troll Emperor completely, covering his entire body with a metallic demonic looking armor!

"Is this a transformation skill?"

"Wait! Look at that ring!"

"This?"

SLASH!

I used my Toxic Flame Claws so easily slash his arm containing the ring off!

"Guuuahhhhhhhh!!! Impossible!"

His powerful armor and the stats boost he received quickly dissipated.

"To think you had such a trick behind your sleeves, good thing I didn't hold back on you" 

"You are too troublesome awake, good night"

"Ghh…! Noo! Demon! You damned…! How… could we… Master…"

I activated Hypnotizing Gaze and quickly made the Troll Emperor fall sleep.

Afterwards, I took my time and slowly drained his blood out, it tasted like the sweetest nectar I have ever drank in my entire life. 

Indulged in such a feast, I did not noticed that the Emperor was already dead until I got his EXP.

[You don't have the necessary requirements to possess a class yet]

[Requirements: Become a humanoid existence of mid or high class]

"Agghh! It got me all hyped up for nothing!"

"No matter what, I am picking a Humanoid for my next evolution!"

After finishing my pointless ramblings, I quickly ate the Troll Emperor dried body; it tasted like a very delicious dried meat from Earth, even having some spiciness to it.

[You've obtained a new Title: High Ancient Troll Emperor]

[You've obtained the following Skills]

[High Ancient Troll Emperor Titan Body]

[Savage Troll Blow]

[Basic Weapon Proficiency]

[High Ancient Troll Emperor Absolute Command]

[High Ancient Troll Emperor Army Boost]

After checking around for some time, I finally found out the arm I cut off from him before, and ate it along with the strange ring. The ring had a bloody metallic taste on it.

[You've learned the following Skills]

[Shadow Awakening Ring: Basic Armor Type]

[Demon Holder]

[System Warning: Your body now holds a strong demon]

"Eeehh?! A Demon?! What do I do?!"

"Idiot! Why did you eat the mysterious ring like it was nothing?"

"Eeh? What do you mean by assimilate?"

"I think it means that you will fuse with it absorbing its power"

"Yes!"

"Phew…"

[You've obtained a new Title: Demon Devourer]

[You've gained a new Skill: Abrahel Curse]

"Curse?!"

"Check [Abrahel Curse]!"

[Abrahel Curse: The curse given to those who had made contact with the Demon Abrahel.

Extra Effect: Increases Magic, Resistance and MP growth by 20% per level]

"GEEEH!!! What is this?! Charm?! "Queen of the Succubus"?" 

"You gotta be kidding me!" 

"Also Holy and Godly existences will try to hunt me down if they know that I exist! This is horrible! Why did I eat that ring?!"

In anger, I started to move everywhere, hitting my head with my tiny arms, like a crying kid.

"Probably that -1 Luck was seeing how everything was going so smoothly so he decided to fuck me down!"

My minds inside my head couldn't believe this and were barely hanging on their sanity.

"Impossible… Impossible… No way… No way…"

"Being hunted… no… no… no…"

"Sigh… Is this really what destiny wants for me?" 

After some pondering around and crying for over an hour, I decided to keep going in life. Perhaps, someday I will find a way to destroy this curse.

"Looking at the bright side… It increases my stat growths…!"

"Sigh…"

I tried using the new Shadow Awakening skill to distract myself and see if it was really worth it.

[Shadow Awakening: Basic armor type has been generated]

Fluosh!

A big and thick dark aura engulfed my whole body, when it dissipated I was completely covered in a dark colored metallic armor that protected this tiny butterfly body.

"I am surprised on how perfect the armor fits every inch of my body; it was generated from zero to fit me"

It seems that the armor grants an impressive defensive buff and if shattered, can regenerate itself with ease, spending MP.

"This is indeed a nice skill, but was it really worth it…?"

After assimilating the Demon, the skill [Demon Holder] was still there by default, after checking it, it seemed to be able to store demons I capture and hold them inside my body, without them running away. The downside is that they would slowly corrupt my mind.

"In the long run, if I didn't assimilated the Demon, it would have probably corrupted my mind and controlled me, I guess it was for the best…" 

After some resting and getting my mind ready for whatever would happen from now on. I went to pick up the Witch and flew home.

.

.

.

"Ah! It's Master Kireina! She's back!"

After meeting everyone on the Tight Road, I noticed that some were moving some Troll corpses to the cave, probably for food, and noticed a big and muscular Troll holding an unconscious Troll Girl on his arms.

"Ah, yes, Master Kireina, that Troll name is Truhan, he as willingly accepted defeat and accepted becoming your slave, including the girl he's holding, its seem the only thing he cares about is protecting her" 

"Oh? Very well, I shall perform a Blood Pact then"

Flash!

I quickly flew in front of the Troll Warrior.

"Celica… Ah!"

"Hey! So you want to become my slave willingly. You are very clever!"

"Ah…! You must be… the De- I mean, Kirena, right?"

"Yes, now I shall perform the Blood Pact ritual with you and the girl"

"Okay… The only thing that I want you to let me do is… Protect Celica… She's… the only bright thing on my life…"

"Ahh…! How sweet… Blood Pact!"

FLUOSH!

After connecting my blood with both Trolls, the Pact was successfully formed.

[The servant relationship that High Troll Warrior Truhan, and High Troll Warrior Celica have with High Necromancer Warlock Redgaria Frostbite has been successfully broken]

[A Blood Pact has been successfully created with: High Troll Warrior Truhan, and High Troll Warrior Celica !]

[Amount of Slaves 43/50(+10)]

After wrapping the sleeping Trolls with a strong magic thread, I handled them to Wagyu who carried them home.

Before going home, I wanted to try out a special skill I got after evolving, so I told some servants to put the most intact looking Troll corpses in a barren field.

"Hmm, this should go like this… Activate skill: Rise Undead!"

FLUOSH!

Using the skill command while touching the corpse, I felt that a chunk of my MP, was instantly drained and inserted on the corpse.

"Hmmm…" 

The Decaying Troll corpse slowly woke up and stood up on place. Its eyes were black colored, and looked soulless.

[You have successfully raised your first Undead Soldier: High Troll Warrior]

[Number of Undead Soldiers: 1/30]

After checking its stats, it looked almost the same as the living Troll Warriors, but with some downgrades in Resistance and Speed. The Undead Soldiers race was now "Lower Undead Troll Warrior", it gained some new skills like [Vitality Sucker] and [Zombie Endurance].

They can also keep leveling up at a faster pace, and even evolve into different beings completely.

I wondered if I could get those skills if I ate it so I did.

[You've obtained a new Title: Undead Devourer]

[You've learned the following Skills]

[Vitality Sucker: Level 1]

[Zombie Endurance: Level 1]

"I even got extra skills out of it… I also didn't get any EXP, probably because it was already dead after all"

Afterwards, I quickly raised 20 Trolls as Undead and commanded them to carry the other corpses to the cave, to stock up on food.

[You have successfully raised 20 Undead Soldiers: High Troll Warriors]

[Number of Undead Soldiers: 20/30]

I commanded another team to loot the corpse's armor and weapons and I slowly flew to the cave with Rimuru and the Slime family by my side. 

Rimuru told me about the strange flesh armor that covered Celica's body and also when it transformed into a terrible monster.

"It must be related to that "Shadow Awakening" ring, right? Probably that whole fleshy armor was another Demon itself, and after crafting a very strong Light Element Magic, you were able to successfully slay it, you did splendidly well" 

"Guuuu! Master, we don't deserve such praise!"

"Guuuu!"

"Mastaaa…!"

"Master…!"

"Master…!"

The five Slimes expanded their bodies and showed their lovable affection to me in the best way they know.

"D-Don't hug me again! Guaaaaaaaahhh!"

After finally arriving home, I found the cooking Team already working hard on make a good feast to recover all the exhausted strength of the army.

"Haahh… I am tired somehow, even though I am an Undead, it must be mental tiredness, I will go rest until the food is ready"

"Yes Master Kireina, I will call you when the food is done"

"Thanks Wagyu"

I threw my tiny body over my comfortable bed and started fusing skills.

[Group Command] + [Attack Command] + [Defense Command] = [Army Command: Reinforce]

[Underwater Breathing] + [Fish Strong Gills] + [Dry Skin] = [Underwater Form]

"Now this one is weird… "Underwater Form"?"

After trying it out I was surprised by the results, it seems that it's a form-change skill similar to my [Dark Moon Demonic Mode]. It changes my appearance a little bit, making my lower abdomen look like a fish tail, as if I was some kind of butterfly-mermaid weird combination, my wings became blue colored and looked like large fish fins. It also increases my water affinity by 50% but I can't fly anymore.

"I don't think this will be ever useful… Well, maybe?"

[Underwater Sense] + [Sturdy Fish Scales] + [High Water Manipulation] = [Mythical Undine Water Senses]

This skill paired well with the previous change form skill, increasing my underwater senses sharply while also increasing my water affinity even more.

"Hmm, what if I fuse it with a completely different skill…?"

[Underwater Form] + [Mythical Undine Water Senses] + [Summon Lower Water Being] = [Mythical Circle Magic: Summon High Water Spirit]

"Gaah! Another one of these!"

Just as I thought, this skill worked just like [Mythical Circle Magic: Summon High Fire Spirit], the spirit summoned this time had a small humanoid body (around the size of my butterfly body), long and blue hair with beautiful aquamarine eyes; it had smooth skin and beautiful pale-red lips. It was wearing a simple blue colored dress that covered her entire body, while revealing her bare feet. Her long wings reminded me of my Undine Butterfly ones.

"Gaahh, so cute…"

"Are you my new Master? I never thought I would have such a weird butterfly as a Master before; this world is truly full of wonders! My name is Nereid by the way, nice to meetcha'!"

Unlike the Fire Spirit Kjata, she's very talkative and no one would think that she's actually a Mythical Water Spirit!

She seemed very surprised about the entire cave and the multiple different monster working together like this, when I tried to ask her from where did she exactly came from, she seemed to not know, as if she had amnesia. 

When I tried to make her go back like I do with Kjata, she refused and went to explore around the cave.

"Sigh… Is this another child I must take care of?"

Before going to check on what she was up to, I wanted to finish my last skill fusion.

[Water Element Affinity] + [High Water Element Affinity] + [Very High Water Affinity] = [Water Element Complete Affinity]

"Complete Affinity…?"

The skill seemed to combine every affinity that each skill granted and increased it a little bit; I thought for a moment that it would give me something like infinite affinity over water.

"I guess it's just a fancy name"

Just after finishing my skill fusions, Wagyu came see me.

"Master, the food is ready, also… Who is this being?"

Resting over Wagyu big and fluffy head was Nereid.

"Haaaaahh…! You are so fluffy! I can feel your soft fur all over my body~! It feels so good!"

"It seems that it is fond of my fur…"

"Oh, she's a new member here, I just summoned her when I got a skill while fusing skills… I am sorry but she refuses to go back"

"I see, it doesn't matter, Master, it's all good! Any new member is very welcomed…!"

"By the way, where are the three new slaves…?"

"Oh, about them, they still haven't woken up"

"I see, I will let them rest the night for now, tomorrow I will interrogate them and extract all the juicy info they have about this Master of them! Alright, let's go eat"

"Fueeehhh… Wagyu is so fluffy…"

After arriving to the large dining room, A big feast of different and delicious meals greeted me.

"Oh? These are made with the Trolls meat. The Champion and the Emperor had fine meat but lacked any flavor and were quite hard to munch, I wonder how these cooked one's result"

[Revitalizing Troll Meat And Forest Veggies Soup: A simple soup made using the strong and sturdy meat of the Trolls as the main flavor, combined with different forest veggies. After some hours of boiling, the Troll meat becomes tender and flavorful.

Effects: Grants +5 Strength and Defense for the next 24 hours. Recovers 90 Stamina]

[Minced Troll Meat Roasted Burger: Minced Troll meat accompanied with forest veggies, juicy and crunchy. 

Effects: Grants +7 Strength for the next 24 hours. Recovers 70 Stamina]

The soup was surprisingly flavorful, with a strong meat flavor, the tender meat almost reminded me of Wagyu meat and it was very juicy and greasy.

"Haahh! I drank it all in one go! What the heck? This is way too good!"

After having a fulfilling meat and drinking too much beer, I passed out and Wagyu carried me to my room.
