Succubus Martial God Way, fight with 3,000 times sensitivity

"Won't there be any side effects from changing your body so frequently?"

After all, strength follows the body, and Livi had to start leveling from scratch just after reincarnating once.

But Star smiled.

"Haha, that's no problem, my true form is a spirit~"

“…Oh, I see.”

This shows the difference between the two. Because Star's original body is a spirit, she has not actually changed her "original body". The physical body is just clothes or equipment to her.

Of course you have to level up from scratch if you change your body, but you don't have to do that if you change your equipment.

Who plays an RPG without changing 17 or 18 sets of equipment...

"So, what are you going to do about it?"

Livi glanced at the original body that had begun to harden, and Star waved his hand indifferently, "…Take it back to the furnace and use it as the raw material for a new spare body."

Oh, so this is how it’s recycled, then it really isn’t a waste…

Sure enough, there is a huge difference in the ecological structure between humans and creatures like liches. After saying that, I saw Star picking up the body and throwing it into another room next door with a whoosh.

Livi didn't want to see that room. At present, Star had prepared two rooms. One room was used to store spare bodies that could be replaced at any time. The condition of the room was relatively tidy.

Another room was where the replaced bodies were kept. The conditions inside were extremely horrific. Sita didn't just replace one body and then refine a new one. She would wait until she had accumulated a certain number before starting.

This time interval is generally one or two years. After all, she may live to be a hundred or eighty years old, so her concept and cognition of time is naturally different from that of ordinary people.

"This aesthetic is really not flattering..."

This time it was not Livi who spoke, but Aenekos who was put in Livi's pocket. The little guy stuck his head out, and Livi couldn't help but shook his head.

"It's just a puppet spider, a figurine, what do you know?!"

"You definitely know more than a guy like you who can wear pantyhose that smell like salted fish, right, Lady Livy~"

As the little guy spoke, he tried to crawl into Livy's arms, but Livy picked him up and put him back into her pocket.

"Okay, you guys can discuss this later..."

Livi didn't really want to get involved in the chaos of this female ghost and the damp otaku girl. She always felt that the staffing around her was becoming more and more troublesome.

"How's that guy doing?"

"Oh, it's about the same as before. I guess it's stable..."

The "that guy" that Livi was referring to was naturally Equio.

The divine arts in his body were corrected, and the concept of the Demon King had been stripped away. At this moment, he was transferred to the underground palace of the Demon King's city.

"Well, then take me to see..."

"Yes~"

Located deep in the underground palace, there is a special room specially prepared for him.

Equio was still in the same state as when he was trapped by Livi, with his entire body except for his head and chest being sealed by crystals.

Of course, in order to ensure sufficient safety, this set of "sealing designation" technique is specially surrounded by several layers of barriers.

At this moment, Equio had his eyes closed and seemed to have fallen asleep, and the inverted cross pattern on his chest had disappeared without a trace, replaced by a completely new look.

By rewriting the divine art, Livi stripped the concept of the Demon King from him and instead constructed a new concept. This time, the mark was in the shape of a burning flame.

"The Fire Thief..."

This is the new concept that Livi gave to Equio at this moment, that is, the man who stole fire from the hands of God in the legend. He gave fire to mankind, but was punished by God himself.

Therefore, I have to endure eternal imprisonment...

...Through the concept of the Fire Thief, he blocked Equio's actions and turned himself into a "fire".

That's right, another effect of this magic is that it can continuously draw magic power from Equio to ensure that he continues to maintain a weak state...

As for the extracted magic power, Livi naturally had other uses for it...

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Chaixin..."

Chapter 83: The Philosopher's Stone

By rewriting the divine arts and reshaping the concept of the Demon King into a "fire thief", Equio's actions were completely blocked. At the same time, he used it as a fire to continuously extract magic power.

After all, Equio himself is a genuine demon king with enormous magic power. If left alone, there is no telling when he will accumulate enough magic power to break the seal.

So, in this way, his power can be further restrained and limited.

Of course, the extracted magic power Livi is also useful, and can be used to meet the needs of the large-scale ceremony in a month.

"What a pity, there is only one Demon King Seal. Otherwise, this system would be able to solve the energy problem..."

Of course, this was just a casual remark. Livi also knew that it was impossible to solve the energy problem in this way, even if there were multiple Demon King Seals, because there were still considerable hidden dangers.

If the Demon King's Seal is used as firewood, if one of the steps is not done well, it may cause a disaster. Moreover, this system has no possibility of being copied and promoted on a large scale.

Therefore, in the final analysis, it can only be used to solve the immediate problem temporarily. If we expect to solve the energy problem in the long run, we will definitely need other means.

The solution that Livi is currently considering is the "ultimate answer" in alchemy, which is also known as the highest creation of mysticism, the so-called "philosopher's stone."

According to legend, there is a "perpetual motion machine" that can generate infinite magic power...

...Of course, a perpetual motion machine in the true sense cannot be created, and the real Philosopher's Stone is most likely just a pipe dream.

But in history, there have indeed been people who have created products that are infinitely close to the Philosopher's Stone and can produce huge amounts of magic power, but they just require the consumption of corresponding materials.

To put it simply, the basis of alchemy is equivalent exchange. Magic power is generated by providing materials and decomposing the philosopher's stone. The so-called philosopher's stone is a medium for "material energy".

If this can be done, it means that garbage and waste can be transformed into magic power, thereby realizing waste utilization, which not only solves the energy problem, but also eliminates the problem of garbage pollution.

This can be said to kill two birds with one stone, but such a convenient and easy-to-use thing has not yet been successfully promoted on a large scale. It must be because this thing has its drawbacks.

But for Livi, these are not problems. The difficulty has always been "how to do it". The fear is that she doesn't even know where to work towards. Just like the problem of productivity, Livi can't find a suitable solution now.

On the other hand, the Philosopher's Stone is a real entity after all, but it may have various drawbacks that affect its promotion and practicality. That's not a problem, we just need to improve it.

There are many such precedents in history. Many designs that are now very useful were quite anti-human products when they were first invented.

It took generations of research and optimization to control costs and achieve mass production before it was finally put to large-scale civilian use.

The difficult part is always going from zero to one. Of course, researching and optimizing is also a very troublesome task.

At least for Livi, any problem that cannot be solved with one fist is a huge trouble.

Her power is almost unrivaled in the Demon Realm at the moment, and theoretically no one in the Empire can be her opponent.

This cannot be confirmed with 100% certainty, because as Livi delved deeper into the stigmata and the Demon King's Mark, she became more and more aware that there were far more secrets behind the empire than she had imagined.

As a so-called hero, she had only been active in the empire for a few years, and most of that time she was on the front lines fighting the demons in the five vassal states and on the borders of the empire. In fact, she had only been married to the princess and settled in the empire for less than two or three years.

Of course, it takes some skill to go from being the most popular person to being deserted by everyone in such a short period of time.

This was a dark history of the past, and Livi naturally remembered it deeply in her heart. She knew very well that it was a mistake caused by her own naivety, and it was also because of this that she knew that she actually did not have much contact with the core power layer of the empire.

It is not surprising that there are some killer weapons hidden within the empire. It is even unclear how many secrets are hidden in the history of the empire itself. The imperial history that Livi can access now is compiled by the scribes of the empire.

History books... especially those official descriptions of the current dynasty, are less trustworthy the more official they are. After all, how could a scribe speak ill of the ruler of the current dynasty?

They can only report good news but not bad news, and they have to rationalize all the bad experiences. Livi is too lazy to investigate how much the final product differs from the real history.

In contrast, the five vassal states may still contain some real historical records.

Therefore, Livi has also prepared relevant plans for herself.

After all, things in the Demon Realm have entered the final stage, so the next step must be to contact the main continent.

The geographical location of the empire meant that it would be difficult for Livi to directly attack it without going through the five vassal states. Moreover, if she went directly from the Demon Realm, which was a long journey of thousands of miles, she would be easily cut off without a position.

Livi herself had relied on this trick to cut off the demons' retreat. She had used this trick to deal with the demons before, so naturally she would not go down the same old path.

Therefore, she planned to start with the five vassal states. If she could take these vassal states into her hands, she could use them as bases and rear bases to slowly engage in a tug of war with the empire.

And more importantly, the five vassal states did not have much loyalty to the empire. They were exploited and dominated for so many years only because they could not defeat the empire.

Therefore, there have long been organizations secretly operating against the empire in the country. If the cooperation of these organizations can be obtained, it will be a force that cannot be underestimated.

Of course, if Livi was still the brave Levi, it would be easy to get the cooperation of these people, but now Livi is already a demon, and openly the Demon King.

The people of the vassal states hated the empire, but they also hated the demons. After all, the first things that were harmed by the demon invasion were the five vassal states.

After so many years of conflict, both sides have already accumulated a lot of blood debts. If Livi were to talk to them about cooperation as a demon king, they would definitely not agree.

To put it bluntly, these people just want to free their country from the exploitation of the empire, not to be rapists...

There is a huge difference between these...

In this regard, Livi can only think of another way. If it really doesn't work, she can only rely on the Seal of Submission. But after all, the opponents are humans, so Livi still hopes to leave them some wiggle room if conditions permit.

Of course, there is no need to get entangled unless it is absolutely necessary. As I said before, Li Wei now pays more attention to "result justice" than "procedural justice"...

The process doesn’t matter anymore. Anyway, I’m destined not to go to heaven in this life and I’ll report to hell eventually.

So……

"…Let's start preparing for next month's 'ritual'!"

——————————————————————————————————————

Today's fourth update...

It’s a new month, and I have to start working hard to be fully present~

Anyway, please vote for the fourth update~

Chapter 84: Mainly a Sense of Ritual

The source of magic power for the ritual already exists, and that is naturally provided by Equio, who will continue to draw his magic power for a month. With the support of Levi, Star and Dullahan, this is enough in any case.

Then there was the "formation" required for the ritual. Livi chose to set up the formation directly in the Demon King's Castle. There were no problems with anything else except for some trouble in one place.

...It seems that the materials needed to set up the magic circle are not enough.

"…Why would this happen, Star? Where's your inventory?"

As a lich, Star usually stays in the magic tower to conduct experiments when he has nothing to do. In theory, he must have a large inventory of magic materials.

However, facing Livi's question, Star blinked innocently and said, "You tore them all down. Have you forgotten?"

"...You put them all in the Death Tower?!"

Livi immediately remembered that when she fought against Star before, Livi had completely demolished the Death Tower with one move, and Star's scream was so heartbreaking at that time.

Livi didn't care at first. After all, the Corpse Tower was an important magic tower in Star, and it was equivalent to her home. It was understandable that she cried out in pain when her home was demolished.

But at this moment, Li Wei knew the real reason...

...It turned out that the reason she cried so miserably was because all the wealth she had accumulated over more than a hundred years was taken away by Livi.

Although she did follow the principle of "a cunning rabbit has three burrows" and saved some materials in other places, most of her family assets disappeared along with the Tower of Dead Bodies.

"…Sorry."

Livi couldn't stand this anymore and turned away with an embarrassed look.

After all, I accidentally got myself into trouble. It is truly my own fault.

However, Star's eyes sparkled as he spoke, "Then, Princess Livi, can you let me hug you and comfort my broken heart~"

“…Stop it!”

Livi recovered her composure in a second, and immediately rejected her unreasonable idea with a helpless smile, which made Sta couldn't help but mutter something under his breath.

"…Just hugging for a bit won't cost you anything."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and think of a solution..."

"Well, anyway, most of the so-called materials are monster materials. The Demon Realm is such a place~"

"……indeed"

In short, in the Demon Realm, you don’t have to expect too much about other things. The most common materials are monster materials, which are genuine materials with magical powers after all.
