Chapter 173: High Level Dungeon (Part 10)
"You alright, Captain?"
"Just hold on, I’ll heal all of you right away!"
"I’m sorry, I tried to back you up with my Ice Magic, but none of my attacks could break through those cages."
I took a seat on the ground as the others came rushing over, Kelsey and Keira sitting down as well, pained grimaced on their faces.
The Demon they fought was a bit more powerful than the one Aria and I fought, and while we managed to win without any serious injuries, it was far from one-sided, even with our power boost Skills.
I might have underestimated Greater Demons, especially after defeating that Wyvern...it may have been classified in the same Threat Level as the Greater Demons, but their intelligence makes them a lot more dangerous.
They were also a lot more powerful than the Greater Demon we fought during the final Practical Training exam, I seriously doubt I could’ve won by myself.
The Healer then began healing Kelsey, her injuries the most serious, before moving onto Keira. She then healed Aria, and finally me. I let out a sigh of relief as the pain faded, my body relaxing a bit.
I got a few fractured bones from when the Demon hit me with her Negative Energy blasts, nothing too serious but it still hurt to move.
But I’d managed to partially heal my injuries through Desecrator before I killed the Demon, so it didn’t take much Healing Magic to fix me up.
"Are we going to keep going? Because I don’t think we should," Remarked Damien dryly, as I stretched Devour out towards the male Demon’s body and began consuming his corpse.
"Just...just give me a moment. Let’s take some time to rest a bit and then consider what to do next," Replied Kelsey, looking worn out.
Sounds good to me, it gives me a chance to get a better idea of exactly what happened earlier.
Ai?
Wow...that’s, uh, that’s a lot to process.
I kinda already knew since the System flooded the info into my brain, but I was having trouble processing and wrapping my head around it, it felt like there was a knot in my mind or something.
Okay, so I can get upto seven Monsters under my command, the Apostles of Sin...and I’ve just filled the spot of the Apostle of Lust with Luxuria, which leaves six more vacant spots.
You said that she’s devoted to me, right? Are you sure there’s no chance she might betray me?
Well, yeah, can’t imagine that a Greater Demon would willingly serve a human otherwise.
100 MP to summon her out, huh?
That’s kind of a lot...but considering that she’s as powerful as a high level Ace, I’m definitely not complaining.
What were the command words I chose, again? Emerge and Withdraw, right?
You mean, like this?
"Now,
"
Yup, Apostle of Lust indeed.
"Uh...what am I looking at?" Blurted out the Ice Mage in bewilderment.
"You looked like you were deeply zoned out for a couple of minutes and now-...I’m not even sure what this is," Added Kelsey, a perplexed look on her face.
"I didn’t know I could do this either. But apparently, if I meet some very specific conditions, I can subjugate the souls of Monsters I defeat and control them," I replied with a shrug.
Huh, that so? Not sure that’d be a good idea, though.
"Woah, for real?! That’s so cool!" Grinned Aria, as she stared at Luxuria in fascination.
"
"Wha-...?! Kai, can I punch her?" Growled Aria, as she glared at Luxuria.
"Okay, here’s my first command to you, please be nice to her," I instructed Luxuria with a sigh.
"
Guess she’s only loyal to me...hey, Ai, you sure she won’t attack anyone?
