Chapter 334 Flowing Brightness Flames

When Roy came out of Kha-Beleth’s treasury, Julia happened to return with Kha-Beleth’s demon sword.

Because the human form of Kha-Beleth was tall, his demon sword was naturally gigantic. It was a fiery red longsword. Standing upright, it could reach Roy’s chin, which was about 2.3 meters. The edges on both sides of the blade were full of sharp serrations, brimming with the usual savage style of demons. Since its owner had been a flame demon, this demon sword naturally burned with raging flames. As a demon lord’s sword, it was also extremely powerful.

Overall, the style of this sword was not suitable for Julia, but Roy could not just abandon such a powerful weapon so easily, so he planned to modify it.

Most importantly, this sword also contained one of Kha-Beleth’s soul fragments, and it would reject anyone other than Kha-Beleth from using it, so it was unusable without modification.

The first step after Roy obtained the sword was to use the system to extract Kha-Beleth’s remaining soul fragment!

The size of this soul fragment was not small, but because it had been too long since it left Kha-Beleth’s main soul, Roy was unable to obtain any useful information from it. He only learned the name of this sword after devouring it-the Jaw of Urgash.

As the name implied, the material for forging this demon sword came from the Dragon of Chaos, Urgash, as a reward to Kha-Beleth… or rather, all demon lords loyal to him!

After Roy put the sword into the system space, among the materials that the system analyzed, there was ‘the Dragon Fang of the Dragon of Chaos, Urgash’. In addition, there were many material names that Roy had never heard of, all of which were valuable ores from the Abyss. The system’s definition of this demon sword was also a divine artifact-level weapon. Unlike Roy’s Frostmourne, which was mostly curse effects, the attributes of this sword inclined more toward destruction. When the battle started, Roy’s decisive decision to get Benia to snatch Kha-Beleth’s sword had been right. While holding this sword, Kha-Beleth’s combat strength would increase by at least 30%.

Through the system, Roy shortened the length and width of this sword, making it more suitable for females to use. He imitated Julia’s wings and modified the guard into a pair of flame wings. He did not remove the serrations on the sword. But Roy erased the sinister demon reliefs on the sword and changed them into an artistic style similar to Julia’s fallen angelic armor.

Finally, Julia split a small piece from her soul and infused it into the sword. Then it was done.

Julia waved the modified sword a few times in satisfaction and then asked Roy, “Darling, since you’ve modified it, you should change the name of this sword as well. Do you have any good suggestions?”

Roy thought about it and then said with a strange expression, “How about calling it Fiery Delight?!”

Julia opened her mouth and looked at Roy in astonishment. “This… Do we have to call it this name? Does this name have some special meaning?”

“No, I just thought that since my sword is Frostmourne, and your sword happens to be the fire attribute, with this name, we can make them a pair…” As Roy spoke, he saw Julia’s face collapse, and his voice became softer and softer before finally sighing. “Forget it. If you don’t like this name, you can choose one yourself! In addition, the flames on this sword are destruction flames, so if you want to use it, it’s best to absorb this!”

With that, Roy took out the two boxes with the two fire seeds, one red and one blue.

“Destruction flames fire seed?” Julia immediately recognized the fire seed in the first box and asked happily, “Is this from Kha-Beleth’s treasures?”

“Okay, see if you know the other fire seed!” Roy nodded and showed Julia the fire seed in the second box.

“This is…” Julia frowned and carefully sensed the power in the fire seed. Gradually, the color of surprise on her face became stronger and stronger. “Is this flowing brightness flames?!”

Flowing brightness flames? Roy’s heart stirred. “You can tell? What kind of flame is this?”

“An extremely… rare flame!” Julia said calmly. “You’re a frost demon, so you may not understand the division of flames in the Abyss. Let me explain it to you… In the Abyss, fire seeds are divided into naturally produced and unnaturally produced. Among the naturally occurring fire seeds, hellfire is the most common one. It is a kind of fire seed produced by the fusion of fire elements and dark elements in the Abyss under high pressure. Generally, they can be found in some enormous volcanoes. They are pretty common fire seeds. Demons who know how to use flame power often look for hellfire to absorb and transform their flame power into hellfire. Hellfire has characteristics that ordinary flames do not possess, and it’s extremely difficult to extinguish. It’s a very powerful upgrade for ordinary demons.”

Roy nodded. He recalled that when he accepted the execution mission of Demon Lord Rogeros, he had obtained a hellfire fire seed among the rewards. Hellfire was indeed not too precious.

“Fire seeds that aren’t naturally produced are artificial fire seeds!” Julia condensed a black flame in her palm and showed it to Roy. “Look, this is my flames of recovery. When His Majesty Samael created me, he only gave me ordinary hellfire. But for some reason, after the hellfire combined with my body, it mutated, causing my flames to have the healing characteristic that ordinary hellfire does not possess. If my armor and weapon suffer damage in battle, I can easily repair it through the flames. I can even bathe the injuries on my body in flames to recover if they aren’t too serious. Although the flames of recovery are unique to me, I can also inject it with magic power and separate it out in the form of a fire seed. If other demons who understand flame power can absorb my flames, there is a certain chance that they can obtain this recovery characteristic.”

Roy nodded, understanding Julia’s meaning, and asked, “So, the destruction flames fire seed and flowing brightness flames fire seed were unnaturally produced?”

“Destruction flames are actually naturally produced!” Julia replied. “In the Abyss, there are many volcanoes that erupt all year round for tens of thousands of years, and there’s a very small chance that fire seeds of destruction flames will be born from them. But these volcanoes are usually suitable for the living environments of flame demons, so most of the time, flame demons will find these fire seeds. The flame demons who obtain destruction flames can condense unnaturally produced fire seeds to exchange with other flame demons. So although destruction flames are precious, they aren’t rare.”

Julia picked up the fire seed of the flowing brightness flames and said, “The truly rare one is this! Under natural conditions, flowing brightness flames are impossible to produce. It is a kind of completely artificially created flame. It’s said to be the experimental product of some demons in the past, and it’s very rare now. I almost couldn’t recognize it when I saw it just now.” “What are the characteristics of this flame?” Roy asked with interest.

Julia stretched out her finger and gently held the small blue fire seed. She did not even dare to output magic power into the fire seed because she was afraid that it would suddenly extinguish under the stimulation. She carefully held the fire seed and said to Roy, “No matter what kind of flames they are, their essence is the same, and their purpose is to destroy. But flowing brightness flames are different. It’s a type of flame used to create!”

“Huh? What do you mean?” Roy was stunned.

“This flame is an alchemy flame! It’s impossible to know who its creator is…” Julia explained. “It doesn’t have the destructive power of ordinary flames. On the contrary, when it attaches to an object, it can ‘refine’ the object into what the user wants!”

“Refine?” Roy was a little puzzled. “This flame doesn’t sound useful?”

“Of course, the more powerful a demon is, the less useful it is. What this flame refines is all external objects, while the power of a demon belongs to themselves.” Julia nodded. “But… Dear, I recommend you absorb this fire seed!”

“I absorb it?!” Roy was in disbelief.

“Yes!” Julia nodded. “Because this is the most docile flame I know! It’s the least conflicting one with your frost demon physique!” Julia had seen Lilith with Roy in the Darksiders world, and then she had seen with her own eyes how Roy obtained lightning power as a frost demon. From then on, Julia realized that Roy seemed to be evolving in the direction of the ‘chaos demon’ that Lilith mentionedfusing all powers and giving birth to the strongest demon, a demon who Lilith had imagined that could contend against Void power.

But it was not easy to fuse all the powers. Roy had awakened the frost demon bloodline, so his body naturally repelled flame power. If he wanted to forcibly fuse with flame power, the chances of success were minute. Moreover, the stronger the power of the flames, the smaller the probability.

To Roy, although the system was omnipotent, the price he needed to pay to achieve something almost impossible was naturally higher. But it was different now with the flowing brightness flames. Although this flame was called flames, it did not possess the destructive characteristics of ordinary flames. It was the most gentle flame, and Roy would only have to pay the lowest price if he were to fuse with it.

Roy understood what Julia meant after her brief explanation. This suggestion was indeed quite good, but Roy could not make a decision so quickly. He could only say, “Let’s put this matter aside for now.” Julia nodded. “Okay, but it’s best if you make a decision within three months because this fire seed of the flowing brightness flames will be completely exhausted and extinguish in at most three months. It won’t be easy to find another one in the future.”

Holding the fire seed of destruction flames, Julia left. She planned to find a place in Ur-Hekal to quietly absorb the fire seed to better use the new demon sword.

As for Roy, he played with the box of the flowing brightness flames fire seed over and over. Finally, as he played with it, he suddenly slapped his forehead. Damn, I remember now. I was wondering why it felt so familiar when I heard Julia’s description. This refining characteristic, isn’t this the flames in Ghost Rider?!
