The next day.
Night Palace.
Su Ze sat high on the gray stone throne, flipping through a large, purple-bound volume in his hand.
This was a magic catalog book, recording all the magic and secret arts Vinarida knew, with content encompassing everything.
Vinarida and Tina Hiiragi stood before the throne, their gazes respectfully avoiding Su Ze's face, instead focusing on his legs.
Yesterday, Su Ze's chaotic actions in the Night Palace left an indelible and powerful impression on the one person and one demon.
This made them not dare to treat Su Ze as a naive newcomer to the dark world, but rather as a "Demon Lord" who wielded terrifying power and had a whimsical personality!
Time slowly passed. Finally, Su Ze finished reading the entire catalog, committing the annotations to memory, and asked in a deep voice:
"This contains the Great Demon Summoning Technique."
"Then is there a way to achieve a reverse transformation technique?"
Vinarida was surprised and replied, "Your subordinate has heard of such magic but does not control it… Are you trying to go to the Demon Realm?"
Su Ze nodded: "I am very interested in the Demon Realm."
Vinarida hesitated, shook her head, and said, "That would be very difficult. Only a Demon God can freely traverse dimensions."
Su Ze said in surprise, "It's that difficult? I see many demons can come to the Human Realm, so going from the Human Realm to the Demon Realm shouldn't be difficult, right?"
From the information he understood, interactions between humans and demons were quite frequent.
"They come because they have power remaining in the Human Realm, serving as an anchor. Powerful demons can also respond to human desires," Vinarida explained, then added, "Moreover, the higher the demon's status, the stronger the suppressive force the world exerts on them, and not all powerful demons desire to come to the Human Realm."
Su Ze fell into thought and said, "There seem to be quite a few instances in the Demon Realm of summoning humans to be heroes."
News even reported such incidents.
"Such people either possess special talents, or they have bloodline ancestors in the Demon Realm, with the latter situation being more common," Vinarida explained in detail.
She had a very deep understanding of the dark world, especially the Demon Realm.
Su Ze stroked his chin: "So, if someone in the Demon Realm summons me, theoretically, I can go to the Demon Realm, right?"
"Yes." Vinarida nodded.
Although she was a magical creature born in the Demon Realm, she had come to the Human Realm by accident and was at a loss as to how to return to the Demon Realm.
The atmosphere in the room fell silent for a moment.
Tina Hiiragi didn't know why, but her mood became somewhat anxious.
It was as if Su Ze's silence was exerting a kind of pressure on her.
This was, in fact, the natural reaction of a subject facing their monarch.
Who knew what the Demon Lord was thinking?
Perhaps he wanted to play yesterday's magic bullet game again!
Su Ze's silence was because he was making a wish to the system.
"System, create a specific summoning spell for the Demon Realm to summon creatures from the Human Realm, requiring absolute safety, and the summoned creature must be able to return to the Human Realm at any time… How many Desire Points are needed?"
"3,000,000 Desire Points."
Three million Desire Points were within Su Ze's acceptable range.
To make money, one had to invest a little.
Anyway, there was no rush.
His current strength had not yet been fully realized, and his use of magic was still very crude, so going to the Demon Realm was not very safe.
"Vinarida, start teaching me magic," he said, standing up from the throne and staring at Vinarida.
Vinarida also looked up at Su Ze, her long ears twitching, and she smiled, "What magic would you like to cultivate, Demon Lord?"
"Levitation Spell!"
Levitation Spell was a versatile magic, useful in both combat and daily life.
"..."
Hours later, Su Ze was soaring freely in the air, turning fluidly, accelerating effortlessly, and stopping abruptly with an error of no more than 0.3 seconds.
And his speed was extremely fast!
When silent, he was like a black shadow coming and going without a trace; when fully unleashed, demonic energy surged, and a black-red escape light enveloped him, making him resemble a world-shaking meteor.
Tina Hiiragi was dumbfounded.
Her current flying speed was only the speed of sound, while Su Ze's speed was unknown how many times supersonic.
And he could stop instantly!
That was a skill she had always wanted to master!
"Don't be surprised. The Demon Lord has the potential of a Demon God... The biggest difference between you and the Demon Lord is not the speed of learning magic, but that you need to rely on magic tools to cast spells, while the Demon Lord does not!" Vinarida said, sitting on Tina Hiiragi's shoulder, her words quite disheartening.
Tina Hiiragi felt a pang in her chest, almost turning to stone.
And Vinarida's intention was to strike at Tina Hiiragi's self-confidence.
Otherwise, how could she make you willingly replenish the Demon Lord's magic?
With Magical Girl Maple Sugar's crazy temperament, she was definitely the type that couldn't stop once she had a taste.
At that time, she would replenish magic frantically, growing rapidly...
And as Tina Hiiragi grew, it would also benefit.
After all, everything Tina Hiiragi had, apart from her extremely high compatibility with dark magic, was bestowed by it, and it was not a philanthropist.
"Levitation Spell LV15."
When Levitation Spell reached level fifteen, Su Ze stopped flying.
The potential of Levitation Spell had not yet reached its limit.
Magic was not constrained by form or physical laws like combat techniques, so level fifteen was not the maximum.
However, level fifteen was sufficient.
The next instant, he floated in front of Vinarida, landed on his tiptoes, and said calmly, "Next, I want to learn [Elemental Manipulation]."
Elemental Manipulation was also a versatile magic.
Low-level users could only cast fireballs and such, while high-level users could control all elements: earth, wind, water, fire, light, darkness, and thunder. Although not as powerful as certain forbidden spells, its upper limit was extremely high.
Forbidden spells were the highest achievement in magic.
Vinarida knew only one forbidden spell, named [Heavenly Fire Summoning], which could summon meteorites to fall, with extremely terrifying power.
But Su Ze did not intend to learn it, because learning meant getting started, and getting started definitely meant casting it!
And once cast, it was debatable whether Tokyo could even be preserved.
The infinite Demon Realm, transcendent evil gods, city-destroying magic...
"This world is in peril!"
Su Ze had exclaimed this countless times.
...
"Concealment Spell LV15," "Levitation Spell LV15," "Elemental Manipulation LV15," "Dimensional Door LV15," "Second Space LV15," "Barrier Spell LV15."
These were all of Su Ze's achievements for an entire day.
If he had used Desire Points to achieve these effects, it would probably have cost at least seven figures.
"Demon Lord, these are the takoyaki I bought." A swirling door opened, and Tina Hiiragi flapped her demon wings, flying in front of Su Ze, offering the takoyaki like a treasure, her small face filled with nervousness.
She had just returned home and finished her homework; she had snuck out.
Thinking that Su Ze must be hungry after working so hard for so long, she bought a portion of takoyaki.
"I wonder if the Demon Lord will like them."
Her heart was filled with apprehension.
Vinarida watched silently from the side, saying nothing.
The Demon Lord eating takoyaki, this scene was somewhat comical. If it reached other Great Demons, he might even be ridiculed...
But the Demon Lord was human before, so eating these things was normal.
Under the gaze of one human and one demon, Su Ze picked up the takoyaki and devoured it in one bite.
"You're thoughtful," he praised, his cheeks bulging.
Tina Hiiragi breathed a sigh of relief, looking up with a silly smile, "Hehe, I just thought the Demon Lord must be tired and would need to eat something. I usually love eating takoyaki."
"Hurry up and talk about replenishing magic now! The Demon Lord might agree!"
Vinarida urged anxiously in her heart.
But Tina Hiiragi just kept on giggling foolishly.
After Su Ze swallowed the takoyaki, he looked at Vinarida: "Now teach me the Great Demon Summoning Technique."
This was the last magic he temporarily wanted to learn.
Why did he want to raise his magic skills to level fifteen all at once?
Of course, because he was going to use them immediately!
How could he beat up demons without weapons!
After a day of cultivation, his strength had soared, and his desire to beat up demons had reached its peak, which could be described as "impatiently craving."
