Custom Made Demon King-Chapter 12: Intelligence Is a Good Thing

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Logically speaking, Roy’s first instinct facing a sudden plot change with a hidden boss should have been to run away.

But he did not know why the first thought that popped into his head when he looked at that hideous spider queen was...

F*ck, I’ll swallow my dung and commit suicide if my future wife looks like this! f𝙧ee𝘄𝐞𝚋𝐧૦ѵeƖ.c𝘰𝓶

When he thought of how he could become a bachelor demon for life because he could not accept their aesthetics, Roy felt a deep sorrow within! Then he turned around and ran!

It was impossible for him not to run. He knew that he could not deal with this spider queen just by looking at her size, and he would really be stuck if those spider demons besieged him!

You are too treacherous. Why would you, an adult demon, come to be neighbors with me, a young demon, and still use clones?!

When she saw Roy running away, the spider queen did not become angry but instead burst out in ridiculing laughter.

This was exactly what she wanted. As a demon that had hunted thousands of prey, she knew how to make the souls of her prey more delicious.

Terror, fear, pain. If the prey could maintain these emotions, the quality and taste of the soul might even improve after it dies!

This little demon in front of her was low rank without a doubt. Although he looked a little strange, and she was unable to tell which bloodlines he had, the spider queen did not mind at all. In fact, at least thirty percent of all her prey were little demons like this. Unlike those inferior monsters, these intelligent little demons were by far the easiest to produce high-quality souls.

Just put pressure on them and let them feel terror and fear!

Therefore, she was not in a hurry when she saw Roy running away. She stretched her limbs and took her time giving chase.

“Give up. You can’t escape! How dare you steal from the great Araniya. Your only outcome is to become food in my stomach!

“I’ll bite off your tail, rip off your head, and tear your body into pieces!

“You will wail in pain and beg me to kill you as soon as possible!”

While chasing Roy, Araniya yelled in a strange accent with the demon language, portraying the explicit miserable death that Roy would face when he died in a bid to increase the fear in Roy’s heart.

Araniya continued advancing while spelling out these horrible endings, constantly using her tank-like body to knock down the trees along the way, creating an unmatched momentum.

She was chasing and teasing Roy like a cat would a mouse, and even the spider demons that gathered under her command did not completely block his route. Instead, they were like hounds, driving this prey that was Roy around.

However, she did not know that Roy was not as terrified as she thought.

The success of the first part of his body modification plan did not inflate his ego. He knew that a tail was not going to make him invincible, so when he was planning to clear out the spider demons, he had given some thought about what to do if he was under siege. Nonetheless, he had not expected the existence of a hidden boss like the spider queen.

Therefore, Roy immediately started to execute his plans when the unexpected enemy that was Araniya appeared.

He started running along the route that he came from, shuttling in between the gaps of the spiderwebs. These spiderwebs had lost the spider demons that were guarding them, so there was no problem as long as he did not get stuck on them.

Araniya’s slow chase elated Roy. Of course, he could feel that it was the other party’s way of toying with him, but that made him even happier.

After passing the territory of the spider demons and their spiderwebs, Roy no longer needed to dodge while running. He aimed directly for the southwest direction and ran with all his might. 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼ｍ

Spider Queen Araniya had yet to find anything wrong, thinking that this little demon was merely fleeing in panic.

However, Araniya realized something was wrong once they were out of the woods. This little demon seems to be heading in the direction of the lava river?!

That’s right! The place Roy chose to escape to was in the direction of the lava river. He had seen the river when he first entered the underground world from his hatching place, so it was a given that he could remember it. There were many dangers along the route from his cave to the river, but he was being hunted right now and could not give it much thought.

Araniya immediately became angry when she became aware of Roy’s intentions.

She did not know what Roy could do by fleeing to the lava river. The reason why she was angry was that she realized that Roy was not as afraid as she thought he would be.

This feeling sucked; her expectations fell short...

“Surround and kill him!” In anger, Araniya decided not to continue with her game. Her soul fragments were still on him. Araniya would really regret to her death if he were to escape.

When they received the order, the spider demons immediately accelerated and started to surround Roy from behind.

Roy discovered that the spiders were approaching him and launching themselves at him, so he used his tail to whip them back. That steel-like tail caused them serious injuries when it knocked into them, and it was difficult for the spiders to get close for the time being.

After all, it was no longer their territory, and without their spiderwebs, the spider demons did not have a good way to stop Roy. Roy changed direction continuously as well. The spider demons had no problems moving forward and backward with their eight legs, but they were not that good with lateral movement. They were spiders, not crabs...

Araniya also realized that it was a big mistake not to surround this little demon with her spiders when she could. But it was slightly difficult for them to give chase now, so she went into battle herself.

Now that there were no trees blocking like in the forest, Araniya could increase her speed and move her limbs. She even crushed a few spider demons that were blocking her way and caught up from behind.

“Die! Damn you!” Araniya growled at Roy. However, Roy responded to her with a bullet!

During the chase, Roy twisted his body and fired at Araniya. Her huge body made an easy target for Roy, and as a result, the shot hit Araniya directly in her stomach.

The bullet failed to penetrate her body, but it made her abdomen shrink and her footsteps pause.

Pain! That damn little demon seems to have shot something that really hurt me!

Araniya roared angrily and accelerated again, but right after she started moving again, two loud bangs came. Her body was shot again.

Roy delayed Araniya in this way, and he finally saw that lava river a while later.

He turned back and shot all the bullets in his gun before he began running along the riverbank.

“Haha, despicable little bug. Do you want to jump into the river?!” Araniya could not help laughing when she saw this scene. “Even a demon will find it difficult to survive in such lava. You’ll only die unless you have the bloodline of a flame demon!”

Tsk, what a chatterbox! Roy looked at Araniya with contempt for a moment before his eyes lit up.

Magma flowed in this lava river, but magma was actually melted rocks, so there would be some rocks that did not fully melt or cool down in the river. These rocks were not fixed to the ground and often flowed along with the magma.

And now, Roy saw such a piece before his eyes!

After calculating the distance, Roy suddenly changed his direction, stomped on the shore, and jumped directly onto that floating rock.

Roy landed on the rock with ease.

The rock sank a little under the weight, but under Roy’s nervous glance, this rock did not submerge into the magma and rose slowly instead.

After chasing him to the riverbank and seeing this scene, Araniya was dumbfounded!

Damn it, how is this little demon so clever?!
