Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest-Chapter 851 Demonic Transformation

-----

"I don't care about the words of some ignorant fools! With the power they've given me… I will NEVER be humiliated ever again!" Laughed Lord Magica, suddenly ripping apart his shirt to reveal a black and red jewel glowing beneath. "Hahahahah! Demonic Crystal! Give me your power!"

FLAAAAASSHH!!!

The moment he revealed us that crystal, a tremendous shockwave of demonic energies, which burned through several layers of spirit barriers erupted from his body.

TRUUUM!

We were all forced to step back before this energy, as I desperately harnessed the power of my Mana, Spirit Energy, and countless Spirits being born from my Domain into a giant wooden and crystal shield.

"[Verdant Green Domain Magic]: [Yggdrasil's Divine Shield]!"

To make it even slightly stronger, I added the Essence of the Fey Wilds, even if a little! With that, the enormous shield barely managed to fend off the demonic energy, flames constantly erupting in front of it, tearing small chunks with each passing second.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"This bastard had Demonic Powers too?!" Achlys cried. "I thought that wasn't something they were trying yet!"

"Looks like we were wrong in that regard, that Chimera we fought with the same powers was mostly an old test subject!" Mark said. "This bastard…! UGH!"

Mark tried to step out and confront him, but his arms were quickly burned and turned into ashes, I grabbed him by the shoulders and dragged him back.

"Don't risk it! He's releasing this power because he's mostly likely activating it." I said. "Once he's done, there'll be a chance."

"You're oddly calm about this whole situation!" Jenny cried. "Is this because of all the shit you've gone through, Elayne?"

"…More or less." I gave her a slightly bitter smile.

"Hahahaha! Admire my ascended power!" Laughed Lord Magica, as he slowly started to float in midair. "Did you think that my son and my wife were victims on this? No! They have been given the privilege of becoming new beings as well! At my side, within me!" 𝓯𝒓𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝒃𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"This bastard… What is he doing?!" Rita cried. "Ugh, the energy is too strong- Agh!"

"Unlike Miasma and Nether, we can't properly cleanse this demonic energy!" Cried Jenny. "Fuck, just the scent itself of sulfur is horrendous, can't even bear with it properly! My head's all fuzzy!"

As the two complained, Lord Magica lifted his son and his wife who were like puppets, his mana controlling them like threads.

He had long ago killed them and turned them into chimeric undead of some sort, their clothes were ripped apart to reveal many small red and black crystals.

These were the same "crystalized demonic essence" that Hellberos had gifted to me, and which also the Chimera that had tried opening a Gate to Hell produced!

He had filled their entire bodies with them… This is horrible!

"YOU MONSTER!"

I couldn't help but feel utter rage as I saw what he had truly done.

"Monster?" He smiled. "You call me a monster?! I've been working hard my whole life as a magician! Aiming to one day become a Court Magician, aiming to improve this Kingdom! However, I was always rejected due to my low magic ability, among my entire family, I was the most miserable, born with the least Mana and Magic Proficiency…"

"Society turned their back against me, and my family never recognized my efforts, even if small, I was doing my best! My wife was always mocking me… My son was a worthless good for nothing with even less talent than me! Now, I've finally given them an opportunity, to become better, with ME!"

"You gave them no opportunity! You fucking murdered them!" Rita cried angrily, her shadows harnessing within her body, preparing to attack once the opportunity arose.

"I didn't murder them though?!" Laughed Magica. "I simply improved their bodies! They resisted at first… They cried and all, but oh well… After that gruesome process, we finally became a happy family, together! And I owe it all to them, the Cult that gave me this opportunity! I sent some of my servants to that Banquet Hall, but to think they would get caught and killed so easily… Oh well, I had plenty of them to experiment on before I did this to my family, don't worry!"

As he rambled on about his madness, his son and wife's entire bodies distorted into masses of flesh and bones, fusing into his hands, and then getting devoured by two jaws opening from his palms.

"But now… We can be together again! I'll show you and every other damn noble here, that I am just as WORTHY of carrying this Title as all of them- No, I am even MORE WORTHY!!!"

TRUUUUMMMM!!!

All the Demonic Energy was then absorbed back into his body, his son and wife completely disappearing, devoured by himself.

His entire body transformed his appearance, no longer resembling a human at all, but a Demon, slightly similar to the one I had slain when I rescued little Gabriel.

Crimson red skin, as red as blood, black tattoos covering his red skin, looking like fearsome eyes and demonic jaws, two muscular arms, with sharp black claws.

A long tail, covered on black and red scales, with a sharp spear-like end, a big and muscular frame, unlike his skinny human appearance.

Black horns growing from his forehead and shoulders, spiraling upwards… And long, silver-white colored hair waving down…

The jewel on his chest grew even larger, covering a good part of his entire chest, glowing with a strong, poisonous demonic aura that protected him like a barrier.

And then, a huge pair of wings, resembling hands, sprouting out of his body, each one had the head of his son and wife, and their distorted limbs made up the fingers of each hand-shaped wing…

"We are one now… Hahah… Such a perfect form! Do you think the same, foolish ones?"

While laughing due to the power he had acquired, Lord Magica's presence started burning it all with Demonic Flames.

So this was the monster hiding in the noble district… Good thing we came here as soon as possible, or things might have only gotten worse.

"Are you done rambling about your madness?" I asked, the shield slowly dissipated into ashes as my Gaia's All Purpose Creation Tool slowly transformed into a giant metallic club, with the head of a lion at the end. "Because it's time for you to learn the consequences of your actions."
