Chapter 37

"Madam, I can take care of such trivial matters."

"Miss, are you dissatisfied with that boy on TV? I'll go to his house tonight and scare him half to death!"

Yudou couldn't help but laugh at the sight of Dabanzhuan constantly fawning over his mother and sister.

Ever since learning about Yudou's half-demon identity, Dabanzhuan had been in this state, seemingly trying to prove his worth to Yudou.

After learning about Yudou's "half-demon" identity, Dabanzhuan began to imagine a series of scenarios on his own.

Although Yudou was a "half-demon," he possessed the ability to conceal his demon power.

Half-demons naturally have a human aura, and combined with Yudou's 'Demon Power Concealment' skill, only those far more powerful than Yudou could see through his true nature.

Yudou deliberately hid his demon power and was now recruited by a human demon-hunting organization. In Dabanzhuan's view, this was not a coincidence but part of his lord's plan.

Hiding his demon power and infiltrating the human upper echelons—this was clearly a big move!

At such a young age, to possess such powerful demon power and the courage to infiltrate the human upper echelons, his lord was clearly a demon with great ambition.

After imagining Yudou preparing for a "big move," Dabanzhuan remained in a highly excited state.

Especially after Yudou assigned him the task of protecting his mother and sister, Dabanzhuan began to show off in front of Yamei and Ryuki.

His goal was to ensure that when Yudou rose to power, he wouldn't forget this loyal subordinate.

However, Yudou had no time to guess Dabanzhuan's thoughts. At that moment, he was holding a blood-red stone, lost in thought.

This blood-red stone was actually a gift from Dabanzhuan, given to Yudou after they formally drank the oath wine, making Dabanzhuan his subordinate.

Yudou hadn't paid much attention to it at first, but when he received the red stone from Dabanzhuan, the system immediately displayed a lot of information.

Special Item: Shaseki Fragment (S-)

Description: According to legend, a great demon from a thousand years ago was killed by Abe no Seimei and transformed into the Shaseki. Due to various reasons, the Shaseki was shattered.

The Shaseki contains the great demon's lifetime of demon power. Using its power can enhance one's own demon power, but it also carries the risk of being influenced by the demon's grudge.

Ps: This fragment is one of the Shaseki fragments. When all the fragments are collected, the great demon may be revived.

When Yudou saw the description of the red stone, he was utterly stunned.

This was actually the legendary Shaseki? And just a small fragment had an S- rating. If all the fragments were collected, what would the Shaseki's rating be?

S? SS? Or even SSS?

Yudou had definitely heard of the Shaseki's legend, as it was one of Japan's three great demons and a fox spirit.

But with his current strength, he didn't dare use it, as the legend of Tamamo no Mae was known for her ability to bewitch hearts.

Both in ancient times and in modern Japan, emperors had been enchanted by her.

Yudou also understood why Dabanzhuan, a demon, could grow to an unprecedented C- level of demon power and even master illusionary powers that most demons couldn't.

It was all because Dabanzhuan had obtained a fragment of the Shaseki, allowing his strength to break through the racial limits.

Although Yudou didn't know why Dabanzhuan used the Shaseki without being influenced by it, he didn't dare to try it himself.

So, holding the S- level item, he felt helpless.

While the Shaseki could enhance his demon power, it could also bewitch his heart, and its side effects were even more dangerous than his 'Half-Demonization.'

Yudou always believed that only the power he could fully control was truly his own. Anything he couldn't control was just external force.

But looking at the Shaseki, Yudou felt a sense of regret. This S- level item was the highest-rated item he had seen since obtaining the system.

"If only it didn't have that damn side effect, I could just put it away and let it gather dust.

When I need to fight for my life, maybe I can try it."

After putting away the Shaseki fragment, Yudou looked at another message that the system had displayed.

This message appeared almost instantly when Yudou received the Shaseki.

"Beep, detected that the host has obtained an S-level item for the first time, and the host's current strength meets the conditions. Plane traversal ability is now unlocked.

As a man aspiring to become the lord of demons, the host's current strength is too weak, so training in other planes is required."

"The time flow in other planes is 100:1 compared to this world, so the host can train without worry.

Note: The selection and start time of the training world are randomly chosen by the system, and the host has no right to refuse.

But please understand, everything the system does is to help the host become stronger and rule over all demons!"

When Yudou saw this message, he was inwardly furious.

What a joke, no right to refuse. Other systems, no matter how low, at least had a 'yes' and 'no' option.

But here, it was only 'yes,' with no option to say 'no.' What was the point of having this broken system?

When did he ever say he wanted to become the "lord of demons"?

And he already thought this world was dangerous enough. Now he had to go to other worlds.

If he went to a weaker world, he could show off and get girls, but if he went to a stronger world, what would he do?

Don't think he was strong; there were many in this world who were stronger than him, let alone in other worlds.

Despite Yudou's protests, the system ignored him and informed him in a cold electronic voice that his traversal time was tonight.

As the system had said, Yudou had no right to refuse, so it was just fulfilling its duty by notifying him.

Looking at the silent system, Yudou thought about getting rid of it like the protagonists in other novels, but the raised knife ultimately fell powerless.

He didn't know how to get rid of it, as its voice always came directly from his mind. Was he supposed to cut his own head?
