After Transmigrating As A Demon, I've Been Adopted By Angels! Chapter 78
Advertisement
Inside Tortoric's residence, Tortoric stood on the high platform and looked at Davis.
"So, what's your choice?
"Of course, if you leave now, I will definitely hold a grudge against you."
Tortoric said indifferently.
Davis' expression was silent, and he said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, "Since you can give me the power of a demon and the opportunity to become a subordinate of the demon king of the seven primordial sins, why shouldn't I do it?
"However, I know that a demon will not give in early without benefits. Hence, what is the cost of helping me this much?"
Tortoric's lips curled and he said, "Jaime, you are very smart. I will indeed obtain a lot of benefits because of you, but not from you. It will be from the hands of the demon king of the seven primordial sins.
"It can be said that our interests are the same now.
"Now, I need to invest in you and give you the cultivation resources needed to become a demon. After that, the more outstanding you perform in front of the seven primordial sin demon king, the more benefits I will be able to obtain."
Davis nodded and said, "In that case, let's begin immediately.
"If you have any methods that can allow me to become a demon, just bring them out."
The corners of Tortoric's mouth twitched slightly.
He initially thought that Davis was already being rude enough, but now it seemed that Davis had the momentum to turn this residence into a host.
Tortoric did not hesitate and immediately brought Davis to the treasury of his residence.
There were all kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures for the cultivation of demons.
Although many of them were not top-notch, they were still superior in number!
Tortoric had become a demon duke many years ago.
They had even existed since the holy war between heaven and earth.
Therefore, all kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures that were not particularly valuable were cut into the treasury like a small mountain.
"The things in here can be used as long as you feel that they are useful to you."

Tortoric led Davis into his own treasury, his eyes filled with unconcealable pride.
As a demon who was fond of collecting things, it could be said that anything that was relatively valuable was all put into the treasury by Tortoric.
Davis nodded and began to search the treasury.
"If there's anything else you need, you can call for the housekeeper and servants in the residence.
"They will do their best to satisfy your wishes and listen to your commands.
"In a week, I will come to pick you up and personally take you to the Demon King City of Seven Primordial Sins to participate in the general election."
After giving his instructions, Tortoric had other things to deal with. Thus, he turned around and left the treasury.
After the treasury door closed tightly, Davis' eyes were filled with a greedy light.
Although the system had given him high-quality items, each of them was worth a lot.
However, his cultivation resources were still too little. If it was not for the fact that he often signed in to obtain the cultivation years, Davis' current level was probably not even that of a power angel.
Without any hesitation, the demonic wings on Davis' back completely unfolded as he greedily absorbed the chaos energy from within.
Under the stimulation of the demonic energy, Davis' angel energy also began to rapidly grow.
In less than three hours, the chaos energy in the entire treasury was completely absorbed by Davis.
The treasures had lost their initial chaos energy and turned into dust, dissipating into the air.
Davis nodded in satisfaction.
His strength had improved a lot. After some time, even if he did not obtain a cultivation year from the system, he would be able to break through to the fourth rank of the main angel and demon king.
"Now that I've received some benefits from Tortoric, it's time to show him some of my strength."
Davis muttered to himself.
The demonic wings on his back slowly retracted. With the help of the concealment spell, Davis' strength slowly declined.
Finally, he reached the level of a lower demon level one and stopped.
Davis then called the butler over and asked the butler to inform Tortoric to come over.

Tortoric was stunned when he saw the treasury disappearing in front of him.
At this moment, he regretted saying to Davis, "You can use it as you please."
However, the talent that Davis displayed at this moment shocked Tortoric beyond words.
Generally speaking, even if a half-demon with talent broke through to become an ordinary demon, it would at most become a level five or six demon.
However, Davis jumped two big steps, surpassing the realm of imps and demons, and reaching the level of a lower-rank demon.
Not only that, but the pure demonic power in Davis' body faintly made Tortoric tremble!
Just how powerful was his bloodline to be able to use the strength of a lower-rank demon to make the demon duke feel fear?
At this moment, Tortoric even suspected that Davis was actually the illegitimate child of one of the twelve demon gods who was wandering in the human world.
Otherwise, how could he explain such a terrifying pressure?
After being shocked by the talent that Davis displayed, Tortoric treated Davis well for another week before finally leading Davis to the Demon King City of Seven Primordial Sins.
At this moment, countless demonic figures were gathered in the Demon King City of Seven Primordial Sins.
This was because today was the day that the sin demons would recruit their kin.
The square of the Demon King City was filled with people.
Many demons were standing around and watching. They wanted to know what kind of existence would be able to become the next kin of the seven sin demon kings.
As for the demons that could provide dependents to the primordial sin demons, the lowest level was the realm of the demon duke.
In the entire square, there were about several thousand demons that had the strength of a demon duke or above that appeared here.
Of course, the more powerful they were, the more they would be able to stand in the center.
Tortoric just happened to meet the requirements to provide dependents to the seven primordial sin demons. Naturally, he lined up and took a photo at the outermost corner.
In the center of the square, there was a huge crystal pillar.
There was a faint magic power emitting from it.
Tortoric told Davis that this was a magic tool that could measure the demon's talent. It was priceless.
In the demon world, there was only one in the Demon King City of Seven Primordial Sins.
Among them, the highest talent was shown as S, while the lowest talent had no lower limit. It was even possible that they could not activate the demonic qi.
On the high platform, the seven primordial sin demons appeared at this moment.
Sloth and Envy were clearly the two primordial sin demons that had just been appointed, and there was still a hint of youth on their faces.
However, their strength was truly only second to the twelve demon gods.
They looked at the noisy crowd below the platform, and the countless demon geniuses who wanted to become their dependents. They could not help but be very satisfied.
As time passed, more and more geniuses obtained S-rank ratings. They stood directly below the seven primordial sin demon kings on the high platform, their eyes filled with pride.
"Next, duke Tortoric's residence, Jaime Angela!"
Hearing that he was called, Davis walked forward.
He placed his right hand on the crystal pillar, and he slowly injected the chaos power of his current lower demon rank one strength into the crystal pillar.
The next moment, the runes in the crystal pillar rose rapidly!
S!
However, there was no intention to stop. Tortoric held his breath at the side!
SS!
Everyone was shocked!
This was a talent level that no one had ever reached. Even the primordial sin demon king and the others on the high platform looked at Davis.
Tortoric was extremely excited!
Although Davis had used up all the treasures that he had accumulated over the years, it seemed that everything was worth it!
However, this was not the end!
Just when everyone thought that it was over, the SS level in the crystal pillar became SSS!
At this moment, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air!

Dominion Expansion (a 4X LitRPG)
Clay is one of the world's top players of 4X games, a genre where the goal is to eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate. He's also one of the only players in the world to so stubbornly stick to the one city strategy, a favorite tactic of his that involves only ever using a single city or planet depending on the game's setting. All that matters to him is winning with his favorite strategy, but earning the respect of his fellow players for taking a sub-optimal strategy to its highest level has always been a nice bonus. And now it is because of his skill and entertaining determination that he has been chosen to represent a higher realm in a strategy game where the fate of Earth and dozens of other worlds are at stake. To the victor goes the spoils, and the spoils include entire worlds and billions of lives. That's how he ends up representing the ascended realm of Hell in a grand "game" between an entire pantheon of godly beings and other higher powers. But while it may just be a game to those overseeing it, it is a genuine war for survival to those participating in it where billions of real lives will go to the victor of whoever wins, and many will die before the game is over. Quick Author's Notes: System inspired by Civilization, Endless Legend, Stellaris, and Crusader Kings 2. Combat mechanics inspired by the Total War series. Slow-paced with many long-term plans. Protagonist has a personality heavily inspired by Ron Swanson. Know who that is and love him? You should like Clay. Know who Ron Swanson is and hate him? You'll probably hate Clay. Planning on writing every single day (turn). Days with important things happening will have the system/game mechanics be the priority of the chapter. Days where there isn't really anything important happening will be more slice-of-life and focused on character interactions. Designed a dice-based randomized map generator to create the world as the story goes on, so I don't even know myself exactly what's going to happen as a lot is dependent on world generation. Tech tree with hundreds of technologies already designed. There is a "harem," but it's not the main focus, the girls won't be cardboard cutouts, and I'm not going to completely forget about any previous women in the relationship whenever a new one comes along. One last thing. The "game" starts off with primitive technology level. The current plan is for the "endgame" tech level to be equivilent to WW2-era technology. After that and war just gets boring until you end up in space. Cover is temporary and made from royalty-free stock images while waiting for the real cover's commission to finish.
