From Imp to Demon God: Conquering the Demon World With a Succubus-Chapter 41: Law of Charm

"Is there not an option where consuming the common skills will upgrade the current law affinity I have?"

[No. The only way you can upgrade the rank of your current law affinity is through consuming the demonic core of demon nobles and that only gives you a fragment of their law affinity.]

Myles nodded. He was not disheartened and focused on contemplating which choices were the best to pick.

At the moment, only two choices worked, for he only possessed five Common rank skills. He even wondered why the second choice was included in the first place.

Perhaps, each choice would continue to work in the future.

While pondering, Myles’ gaze landed at Nyxara’ beautiful face, sleeping peacefully.

The weary face earlier faded.

At that moment, a thought manifested in his head.

He said to the voice in his head, "I choose option 3. As for the innate skill, I choose charm."

Myles chose the charm, so he could ask Nyxara to teach him the demonic martial arts of their race. Hence, he could possess a trump care of his own.

The voice in his head echoed.

[You have chosen option 3. The particular Rare rank skill has been selected....

Five Common rank skills, the Energy Drain, Burrow Strike, Shadow Lash, Soul Snare, and Aroma Bewitch are being consumed...]

His demonic core grumbled. Myles perceived something within part his body was being gnawed and it was not uncomfortable to say the least. Eventually, the strange feeling faded, and the voice inside his head echoed once again.

[The five Common rank skills are consumed. You have chosen the innate skill, Charm, to awaken a law affinity with it.

You have awakened a Mid grade law affinity with Law of Charm.

Congratulations.]

Myles smiled and nodded. He wouldn’t deny he was elated to hear the news. It was a mid grade law affinity of law of charm he awakened.

After all, if it was low, he couldn’t afford to consume the demonic core of Nyxara just to upgrade it.

A strange cooling feeling coursed through his body until it eventually dissipated.

He asked the voice in his head, "Show me my current status."

[Understood.]

[Name: Myles Martin

Demon Name: Vorash Kael Nethrux Zaal’eth Omnigra [Expand]

Race: Half-Incubus Half-Imp

Law Affinity: Blood (Mid), Charm (Mid)

Rank: Rank 2 Common Demon

Bloodline: Ancient Demon of Gluttony [Expand]

Skills: Charm, Crimson Dominion, Crimson Phantom Steps]

Myles was surprised to see the Crimson Phantom Steps being included in his status.

Well, it’s a demonic martial art and it’s considered a skill.

Myles asked the voice in his head.

"Can you show me the description of the Law of Charm?"

[Certainly.]

The wall of texts in front of him disappeared and showed the descriptions of the Law of Charm.

[Law: Charm (Mid)

Descriptions: having a mid affinity with the law of charm means your understanding of charm increased significantly, thereby increasing the chances of learning demonic martial arts relating to the law of charm. Furthermore, since you have an innate skill, Charm, with the mid affinity of law of charm the efficiency of the innate skill has improved multifold. However, the rank is still the same.]

Myles nodded. He thought. There was not much difference than the descriptions of the law of charm and the law of blood. Still, the fact that the innate skill’s efficiency improved significantly is one of the best gains I have.

As Myles was in deep thought, Nyxara’s eyes slowly opened. Her eyes soon regained their clarity as she saw Myles’ head in her peripheral vision.

She slowly turned her head towards him and asked, "What happened?"

Myles stared at her for a while and replied, "You fell unconscious when leaving the royal carriage."

Nyxara was surprised. She then recalled what caused her to fall unconscious.

She sighed. "My auntie... she’s a demon."

Myles was intrigued.

He asked, "Why?"

Nyxara smiled bitterly when she recalled how the Guardian of Scarlet Bond tortured her.

"She taught me demonic art and demonic martial arts."

Myles’ eyes sparkled. He grinned and asked her, "Can you teach me what you have learned?"

Nyxara was taken aback. She stared at Myles for a long time and was about to reply, but the words were stuck on her throat.

Myles said, "I have an affinity with Law of Charms, enough for me to learn demonic martial arts for now."

Nyxara was flabbergasted. It took her some time to finally process and said, "I’d definitely be surprised if you ask to learn about demonic arts. After all, only us nobles can have it, because of our high affinity with a specific law. Also, demonic arts are difficult to learn. Compared to three demonic martial arts I learned, the one demonic art I barely learned made me fall unconscious."

Myles was amused. "What is that demonic art?"

Nyxara stared at Myles for a long while and said, "It’s called Velvet Dominion. As the name implies, it’s a domain art. I don’t even know why I have to learn it, it’s not like we’re going to war."

Myles furrowed his eyebrows.

Nyxara sighed. "If you want to learn the three demonic martial arts, fine, I will teach you. But, we’ll do it in my dormitory, so we will have our own privacy."

Myles nodded.

Nyxara was relieved that Myles restrained himself from being greedy.

She said, "Let’s go outside and chat with auntie. We will be able to learn more about the Royal Academy. There is only less than a week before the enrollment."

Myles nodded.

Nyxara stood up and walked towards the door followed by Myles behind as the door abruptly opened.

They were surprised to see the Commander was standing at the door.

"My Bloodsworn," said Nyxara.

The Commander placed his right palm on his left chest and bowed. "Greetings, Mistress. I have come to bid farewell. I can’t waste more time, knowing that the Lady of Chains and Whisphered Vows needs me."

Nyxara smiled and said, "Go ahead, my Bloodsworn. Thank you for accompanying us."

Myles stepped forward and bowed. "Thank you for everything, Commander."

The Commander raised his head and smiled at Myles.

He said, "You’re welcome, Myles. Perform well on your duties. Become the best knight in the academy and make our Mistress proud."

Myles grinned, and it was hidden in his helmet.

"I will be."
