Chapter 118 23: Reality Check

He wanted to save them for his following significant skills at level 30 when he could choose the secondary talent tree to support his primary.

'Let's first use all my free experience to equal my two levels, making future improvements more synchronised.'

Zell increased his level to 28, making sure that Incubus was 4,000 exp ahead because it needed more experience to level up, now leaving him with only 7,200 free exp

Magic Knight | Demonic Dragon Lord - Lv 26 -> Lv 28 Exp: 10,250/28,000

Incubus | Novice Overlord - Lv 25 -> Lv 28 Exp: 14,250/32,000

[Just a thought, Zell, but  do you want to adjust your attributes, to be equal to demons?]

"Hmmm, what do you mean?"

He thought they might power him up somehow, causing him to become excited, yet cold water was quickly thrown over his head.

[Well, currently, your strength is 120, right?]

"Yeah....?"

[Compare that to demons, and you've probably got roughly 12 total, if it's a demon brute, you have 1.2, the number being total strength!]

"What!? Explain it to someone stupid!"

There was the sound of clothes changing and glasses being worn, and suddenly the voice changed from Yinfra to Yanfra and this time, she wasn't acting cute or messing around; it was lesson time!

Suddenly his conscious was brought to that starry forest with a large stone in the centre; Yanfra and Yinfra were sitting on the rock in a teachers outfit, long pointing sticks and a white boar behind them; Yanfra wore sexy glasses, pushing them up with one finger.

"Listen up, stupid Zell!"

'They both look so good in modern-day teaching outfits....'

"So currently, your attributes are showing values equal to a "Humans" sense of power, so the 112 means you're roughly 11 times more powerful than a normal human as the average attribute for a human that hasn't entered the game is 10, however, to a demon?"

She pointed to a board that showed a few numbers "1.2 <-> 1.0."

"This is your power compared to a demon whelp. Currently, you are just barely more robust than them."

Zell quickly stood up before shouting out to contest this sudden information feeling wrong.

"That's impossible; I've killed those whelps since a low level! Like when I met Cryska! We just killed those Demon Brutes so easily; how can you say I am so weak!?"

Yanfra frowned, while Yinfra took a few steps back as her sister seemed angry, her tail slapping against the ground before she pointed at Zell with a sneer.

"Do you think only the gods are currently restricted and punished for their actions!?"

"Zell, don't be a fucking child!"

'Eh!? When was Yanfra ever this nasty!' He thought to himself before her body vanished, appearing below his shoulders, landing a powerful left hook into his body, sending him flying into a nearby tree, smashing into it with a loud thud.

The tree was a unique tree, unable to be damaged by a mere puppy's body, yet Zell felt his bones screaming, his nose and lips with a small trickle of blood as he looked towards her with a shocked face because right now her attributes were 10, a mere 10 and she could easily overpower him.

"Zell, almost all the demons you have faced from the beginning were not because of you, but a demon goddess that seems interested in you, obsessed even... The heavenly mandate has shackled all the demons you fought until now."

"Don't think the demons, dragons or divines are at the top of the food chain... We're not! They merely leave us to care for the boring and mundane tasks of nurturing new blood and culling the weak."

Zell's face became grim, as if he couldn't accept this truth; from the beginning, he thought that the gods were supreme even when he was abandoned by them, feeling lost and hopeless.

"Don't make that face; those existences won't get involved in lower planes; they even bet on whether the demons or divines will win... This time, the stakes are not just a few planets; our entire race will cease to exist."

Yanfra's head shook; this was too far above Zell's power, but she wanted to give him a wakening call so that he didn't think his new race and strength made him invincible.

"We went off track, so let me continue to write it so you can understand clearly, as you seem to be dim."

As her body turned, her massive ass swayed, hoping to perk up Zell's mood; she hated being so strict and offensive, but if he died, where would that leave her and Yinfra? Their entire lives were slowly beginning to revolve around him, and she didn't want to be with "Another" Zell, but this one, the original Zell.

Her delicate fingers on the whiteboard drew a small image, although his eyes watched her ass and the wonderful garden that peeked through her short skirt's opening as she bent forward on purpose.

Yanfra knew how to motivate him; mixing information with lewd acts caused his brain to work in overdrive.

The board stated his current attributes but focused on strength as it was the easiest to compare.

-

Zell - Strength: 10 -> Demon Whelp Strength: 1

Zell - Strength: 100 -> Demon Brute Strength: 1

Zell - Strength: 1,000 -> Demon Lord Strength: 1

Zell - Strength: 10,000 -> Demon Prince Strength 1

-

"Can you understand what this means?"

Yanfra's body vanished into a cloud of smoke before reappearing beside him, her soft hands glowing with a gentle blue light; his wounds and pain all disappeared as she kissed his cheek gently, wanting him to focus, understand and realise how small his existence was right now.

"My 110 Strength is worth only 1.1 of a demon brute's strength?"

Her soft hand began to caress his cheeks, pressing her chest against his body to reward him for his correct answer; she looked down at him, those beautiful azure eyes, filled with dazzling stars, focused only on him.

"Then what you mean is you'll make my status only increase every 100 points in the future? That makes me feel a little weak..." Zell liked the big numbers, but now they felt so insignificant; he needed to become 10 times stronger to equal a Demon lord with 1 Strength!? How powerful were they, or did they have a different type of power system!?"

'Is that why the games level system suddenly ends with the merger and changes to acquiring attributes from killed monsters!?'

Yanfra's soft lips pressed against his, her warm sticky tongue pushing through into his moist mouth, coiling around his tongue as she began to suck his tip, pulling it into her mouth.

A loud smacking sound filled her private world; Yinfra had left long ago, knowing that her sister was severe and would probably try to kill her if she did anything.

The pair kissed for several minutes before she pulled away, slurping the bridge of saliva that formed between them, leaving Zell with a dazed expression.

The moment she kissed him, various information regarding this subject was imprinted into his mind, forcing him to remember it, whether he wanted to or not.

"Good boy, you can do it without my help sometimes!"

Yanfra's face was gentle, no longer the strict and angry persona from before.

"I planned to change your system to help you more as the world changes; although it's cool and makes you feel powerful to have over 100 in your attributes, the fact is that it's nearly worthless in reality. Once the demons are no longer restricted, you will be filled with a false sense of power and die quickly, like most previous champions in your previous life."

'It makes my efforts up to know to feel worthless...' Zell thought.

She could feel his sad feelings before giggling to him before she decided to tell him a fact that he didn't seem to realise.

"Zell, you've already surpassed the you who spend 4 years in the apocalypse, and it's not even been a month yet."

"!?"

A sudden realisation came over him; the strange events and vast amounts of situations he faced caused him to forget such a simple thing; even if the merging was faster, there were still 2-3 years at least; why was he so focused on becoming instantly powerful and not seeing the bigger picture?

"My views became narrowed by my thirst for power and becoming drowned in the idea that I was some kind of protagonist...."

Yanfra giggled, before stroking his head like a mother, sister and lover all in one, her lips opening with a joyful voice.

"That's right, Zell isn't a hero, a villain or a protagonist. He's a lewd incubus that will fuck lots of women and kill demons."

Suddenly, she looked around for a moment, then nodded and whispered in a seductive voice into his ear.

"No... You're mine.... my Incubus... My Zell!"

Zell was pushed down, a slight pain in his back as Yanfra pressed him to the ground, his body slowly sinking into the dirt as her face turned red, filled with dull and strange eyes as the stars vanished, now a swirling cosmos of chaotic lights and flickering darkness.

"You are mine, and I won't allow you to die again; this time, Yanfra will make everything go well, no matter the punishments! Right?"

Best

He could feel his bones breaking from her pressure, suddenly confused by her change in persona, as a book turned upside down; her breathing became rapid as she began to slither her tongue along his cheeks, drool covering his cheeks.

"YANFRA!"

A moment before his arms were crushed completely, Yinfra's voice sounded, her hands holding a long eastern sword, the blade glowing blue before her figure vanished, attacking the strange Yanfra.

Zell wanted to shout, to stop the two as they began to clash, destroying the countless trees and rocks in the divine world, but he was ejected, now standing on the spot, his body filled with numerous cuts and a cold sweat covering his body.

- Your Attributes have been corrected; please check before entering combat!

'That damn cat! She changed them without asking!'

"But seriously... What was that... It was a little sexy...."
