New Evolution of the Evil's Race

One day, I went to bulmund with some people , like fuze and few officials . Since my father and my family were off nation, to visit some relatives. I visited relatives early and returned so I could attend the meeting with belmund king.

As, the agreement was signed,

I got a telepathic call; it was one of the elf kids named Will.

Will> Lord Reed, there has been a problem here , some people have been...….

The communication ended before I could do anything.

>Tch

I tried using the teleportation panel I made in the forest of elves , but it didn't work . I had no option than to just go , straight my flying. I was flying but then something hit me and sent me crashing to the floor.

Then a figure in a armor appears

Hinata Sakaguchi> I am Hinata Sakaguchi , the captain of the 10 Saints and the church of luberious has deemed you evil . So, I have to end you.

Me> Hey , you can't do that you know I am a leader of a nation.

Hinata> Must be eliminated.

As she straight up charged an attack which I barely dodged. It seems she was even, I heard about her. Hinata the saint who serves the holy church and is a follower of luminous. I heard that she was quite a reasonable person, but she is straight attacking me , I had no choice but to counteract .She was a monster with every attacked I pulled out on her she either dodged it or used abilities to counter it. She was already a monster but I had to let her get tired so I could get an advantage. Then she started using holy magic , there was no way I stood a chance.

But as I was more impressed by her being so strong and finally started acknowledging people stronger than me and having a sense of pride that I can fight such a powerful being and also for the first time gaining a desire to become stronger.

With my desire and the pride that came in my heart a new skill formed. Unique skill Pride .

As I activated it, I started decreasing the gap in power between us. She even awakened and started going all out, I quicky started adapting to her attacks and even copying her attacks. When I overwhelmed her and as I had figured out that she was being controlled so I made her stab me so and I knocked her out using the opportunity. Then I was planning on using great sage to get rid of the mind control placed on her. Then, a huge disintegration magic came from the sky at me and then after the attack named trinity broke. The attack was launched by 3 luminaries of the holy church from the sky.

As the smoke went, they thought that they had won and destroyed my body, but I was already behind them, flying with my demon wings. I cut their hands off and used all sorts of magic inside their body to make their skin burn from inside to torture them to reveal who they were working for as the entirety of the floor was covered with their blood.

One of the luminaries, barely being able to speak laying on the floor says "How are you this strong, you're a monster you crimson devil", they died without revealing who was the mastermind .

Me>Crimson devil , huh quite a good name. I was thinking of a demon name for myself. So, call me Reed Ember, the crimson devil.

After renaming myself

*Notice: Master giving himself a name from the screams of other , has edged the name crimson devil into master's core. Master has also reached the pinnacle of the power of an archdemon. Evolving master into a demon peer.

With that I evolved into a demon peer midway , demon peer is the pinnacle of power a demon can reach in the world of humans. Though it didn't seem like I gained much of an increase except getting twice my magicules and gaining skills like demon lord Haki , spatial domination and few others.

My priority was to return to Pheonix. As I return to the capital , I met with the elves who briefed me on the situation, apparently the nation Falmuth attacked our nation, with a full fledged plan with the help of the Holy church to create a barrier around our country to weaken people with monster bloodline and attack them. But something wasn't right, how could they have made such a powerful barrier without anyone noticing? So, I went inside the barrier and see benimaru fighting youm and his allies who were protecting mjurran who seems to be in a majin form. Benimaru apolozised that he couldn't stop her without trying to not kill youm and others protecting her. It seems she is one of the underlings of demon lord Clayman who is the mastermind behind this attack and is the one who created this barrier.

But I told them to focus on taking care of the injured and alive. As I was outside, all the casualties were present elf children, kijin children and many children were there lifeless. Demon lord Haki came out of me when I was angered at the situation. But I decided to give them a rest and consume their bodies using gluttony.

But then Eren and her two friends appeared and told me that there is a fairy tale that allows someone to revive the dead. Though the idea sounds like a miracle, it was hard for me to believe that. But still for the sake of people who trusted in me I decided to hear her out.

She reveals the myth starting with a dragon princess destroying the nation who killed her pet dragon and becoming a demon lord and revived her dragon , but it became berserk, so she had to end it herself.

So, the myth reveals that a demon lord can possibly revive the dead,

Great sage can I do the same as a demon duke, after all i am closer to a true demon lord in power if we compare a non awakened demon lord to carrion

*Notice: It's not possible, despite demon peers having some abilities like demon lords they still fall in the mortal realm and cannot do something like that.

> I see , the hope went away cause there is no way for a demon to become a demon lord.

*Notice: It might be possible for master to evolve into a demon lord.

> But how? don't demons have a limitation of how strong they can be in human realm so, they can't go beyond demon peer.

*Answer: Yes it is true for all demons, but master is an exception cause you already had a demon lord seed before you truly became a demon which came from the orc lord's core that merged with your core, and with me I can use that to make you evolve beyond the limitations of the demons in world since master already surpasses the required magicules and needs to fulfill the final condition to awaken into a demon lord which is to consume 10,000 souls.

I hear a report from Will and Soei that they see an army of falmuth with the size of 20,000 approaching to attack us.I carve a barrier so that the souls of the dead people don't go away I return and tell all the council that I am planning to become a demon lord. But they trust me despite me not explaining that how I could as a demon.

So, I send benimaru and crew to destroy the people who have carved a barrier to weaken us and tell others and mjurran ,who I replaced her heart which clayman was using to control her with a new one, and made her carve another barrier as the first one vanishes . The process seemed quite fast for them

I fly on top of the camps of Falmuth , create an anti magic area, launch forbidden demon magic death streak which kills 200 people instantly despite me toning the power down, I descend down on them like a devil. Launch lightning attacks which straight up targets their heart and kills people. I slaughter 800 of them with my hand and then go to the king. He tries to talk to make a deal which angers me the most that I cut his hand of with black flames lazar from my fingers. Some, young guy who sounds like an old man calls himself razen tries to talk to me but I instantly cut him in half .

*Notice: Skill merciless has been acquired. Any person who lost the will to fight , master can manipulate their life.

> I tell raphael to use it on everyone apart from the king and the bishop from the attack so I could take them hostages.

I flew in the sky taking a look at the people, showing them devil before they die, all the souls get consumed by me

Vow: Notice, individual named Reed Ember has broken the limitation of the demons and is evolving into a true demon lord via Harvest festival.

I feel sleepy all of a sudden,

*Notice: The harvest cannot be halted, 1 survivor detected.

Dammit if someone survived he might be a problem, I grab both the king and bishop with black mana whips.

>Activate Demon summoning. Take all the bodies here as a offerings. Come out and do work for me

In an instant a magic circle appeared in the area where all the bodies were and the bodies vanishes.

In front of me an archdemon with a presence similar to me in black hair appeared with three greater demons most likely from the black lineage.

?>kyuuhuh , a demon evolving beyond a demon peer in the world of living , such a magnificent spectacle. May I work for you from today my lord.

Me>We can talk about that later first do the task that I summoned you to do for me.

 The demon bowed and left as I teleported to the capital where all my subordinates were waiting for me.

As I was about to fall, beni helped me sit in the bed like throne they made for me in the middle of capital.

I evolved into a demon lord , all of my subordinates and my connection to them became greater, and they received gifts.

Great sage evolved into Ultimate skill Raphael, Lord of wisdom

Gluttony evolved into Ultimate skill Beezlebub, Lord of Gluttony.

For some reason, only my unique skill pride didn't evolve into an ultimate skill, but I didn't care cause having even 1 ultimate skill is like a miracle. I went to sleep and raphael took control and revived the children instead.

Meanwhile the black haired demon was admiring such a miracle,

In his mind "I finally found you, Rogue's reincarnation, I must serve you ", the demon was the only demon who could rival the primordial demon Rogue in the underworld, The primordial demon Noir.

With the Reed becoming a demon lord , and the primoridals seeking him, his life was about to change completely
