Custom Made Demon King

About a kilometer above Ulambus, there was a colossal circular building in the sky.

This circular building looked like an arena. Two intersecting rings of floating runes surrounded it and slowly rotated, making the entire building seem like a magical miracle as it floated in the sky.

This was the greatest masterpiece of the Academy’s Silver City, the Sky Storm Altar!

In the beginning, the Sky Storm Altar was also known as the Cloud Temple or the Cloud Coliseum. However, because the kingdom of Erathia had gained the favor of the angels, it obtained the Cloud City Altar, which could summon angels. Therefore, in order to distinguish it from Cloud City in Erathia, Silver City changed the name of the Cloud Temple to the Sky Storm Altar.

The Sky Storm Altar was mainly used to summon titans. In the world of Ashan, there were other planes, such as Sheogh, the lair of the demons. In fact, Sheogh was an alternate space attached to the main world. It was an outpost established by the Abyss demons in Ashan. Similarly, in addition to Sheogh, there was also the Transept of Elysium of the angels, the High Mountain Temple of the titans, the Dragon Utopia, and so on. Some of these alternate spaces were easy to enter, while others were not. But in Ashan, people called them mystic realms.

These mythical creatures had close connections with the various races of Ashan. Perhaps because the Dragon of Order Asha and the Dragon of Chaos Urgash had been continuously fighting ever since they were born, all of Ashan had always been in constant conflict. The main reason for this chaotic war was because of the problem of faith. Therefore, let alone the various races, even the mythical creatures found it difficult to stand on the sidelines, and they could only choose their own positions and join the war.

The Sky Storm Altar in the sky above Ulambus was not large, so the power of the magic formation that could be engraved was limited. It was unable to summon top titans, and it was a second-level summoning altar.

But even so, having a top summoning altar meant that Ulambus was a big city. When the alarm bell sounded in the city below, the two Academy heroes in the Sky Storm Altar quickly received the news.

“Your Excellency Nathir, Your Excellency Galib!” An archmage who was lucky enough to escape teleported to the Sky Storm Altar through the city’s teleportation formation. He was weak at physical activities and was already panting from exhaustion just by running in from outside the hall. However, he did not have time to catch his breath as he shouted, “Ulambus needs your… support!”

“Huh?” Beside the altar’s magic formation, a man in a red robe turned his head, but his face could be clearly seen because he had a mask with complicated patterns on it. He was Nathir.

Nathir was a wizard with the title of Flame Wielder’. With his outstanding talent in fire magic, he stood out among the mages and became a hero-level figure of the Academy. He also had a fiery temper. Upon hearing the shout of the archmage, he immediately stood up and asked, “What happened?”

“It’s… it’s the Dragon Ball!” The archmage was gasping heavily. “We… We were deceived! It was a trap, and the Dragon Balls were sealing a powerful demon! We accidentally broke the seal, and now the demon has appeared in Ulambus…”

Before he finished speaking, another Academy hero, Galib, shook his head and said, “Seriously. I said long ago not to experiment rashly with unrecorded treasures… How much trouble do you want to cause to be satisfied?”

Galib had blue skin shining with light because he was not a human but a djinn. Because he had broken through the shackles of the djinns, he had obtained the recognition of the Academy mages and became a hero. But what he was good at was not offensive magic but artificing.

Galib’s complaint was not unreasonable. In fact, the mages had already caused a lot of trouble to maintain their curiosity in exploring the mysterious. But they did not repent and had always been arrogant and haughty, causing these kinds of incidents to keep continuing

The hot-tempered Nathir did not care that much and directly said, “Galib, I’ll go one step ahead. If you get a response from the titans, then support us from the sky!”

“Okay!” Galib did not say anything else and nodded. He continued to stand beside the magic formation, injecting his magic power to communicate with the titans living in the High Mountain Temple.

Mythical creatures such as angels and titans were aloof, and it was not easy to summon them. They were powerful and had arrogant personalities. To obtain the recognition of titans, heroes needed to spend a long time communicating with them. Some top titans even set trials for heroes to complete.

However, once they obtained the approval of the titans and signed a contract, the heroes could summon them to fight in battle. These powerful giants had god-like strength, and they were magic weapons that won battles.

Flame Wielder Nathir quickly returned to the city of Ulambus below through the teleportation formation. But as soon as he came out of the teleportation formation, Nathir saw the entire city had fallen into a huge panic!

Roy’s Halo of Fear had enveloped this city. The weak soldiers could not even raise the will to fight, let alone the civilians. Under the influence of the fear, the people living in this city were fleeing everywhere, rushing out from the various city gates to escape. Under these circumstances, the defensive troops of the city were unable to organize any effective resistance.

Of course, it could not go on like this. After realizing this, Nathir immediately discovered that the city seemed to be subjected to a large-scale spell similar to Frenzy, so he ignored the consumption of his magic power and immediately started chanting.

About ten seconds later, Nathir waved the magic staff in his hand, and luminous magic light poured out. This magic light quickly spread to every corner of the city. This was a Cleansing spell. Under Nathir’s relentless casting, the people in panic finally felt somewhat relieved and woke up from their fear. Although they were no longer afraid, they looked around in confusion.

“Organize the evacuation of the civilians immediately!” Nathir said to the archmage. “Try to reduce the casualties as much as possible!”

“What about you, Your Excellency?” the archmage asked.

“I’ll go meet that demon!” Nathir said. “Let the remaining troops in the city gather under my command!”

The archmage nodded and immediately went to convey the orders. Soon, an army of about four hundred rushed to Nathir’s side. Although most of them were iron golems and stone gargoyles, there were a few nagas. Nathir reckoned that it should be enough, so he rode an elephant mount and led the troops to charge toward the square.

On the square, Roy had already killed most of the Academy troops gathered here. The nagas were the melee masters of the Academy, but when they could not get close to Roy, it was useless no matter how strong they were.

The entire square was in a mess. The fragments of the iron golems and stone gargoyles were scattered all over. In the middle were many fallen lamps, which were the remains of the djinns whose bodies had been destroyed. The corpses of the nagas were also lying everywhere, and they were the only creatures that shed blood. As for the gremlins, they had long escaped under the effect of the Halo of Fear.

When Nathir came to the square, what he saw was this scene.

He looked at Roy, who was hovering in midair, in surprise and doubt. When the archmage reported to him, he only said ‘a powerful demon’, but Nathir did not know how strong this demon was. It was not until he saw Roy that he realized that Ulambus was in grave trouble this time!

Of course, Roy also saw Nathir rushing over. This mage-like fellow riding on an elephant and surrounded by soldiers looked like a leader-type hero no matter how he looked at it.

Out of probing, Roy did not even bother to speak and directly extended his hand to shoot a Finger of Death at Nathir!

The black lightning jumped and instantly appeared in front of Nathir. But unexpectedly, there was a flash of light on Nathir’s body, and a triangular, translucent magic shield appeared beside him. Roy’s lightning struck the triangular shield and was annihilated.

At the same time, a ring on Nathir’s right hand exploded with a bang.

Nathir was shocked. The ring on his finger was a treasure with an ‘Air Shield’ spell sealed in it, which defended against this incomparably fast lightning spell. However, he did not expect that the demon opposite him would destroy his treasure with just a lightning spell. The magic power contained in this spell had exceeded the defensive load of the treasure!

“Attack!” Aware that the might of the demon’s magic across from him was extraordinary, Nathir did not dare to be careless. He waved his magic staff and cast a Mass Air Shield and Mass Cleansing on the entire army before commanding the troops to charge at Roy.

Troops led by heroes were completely different from troops without heroes. With the support of the Cleansing spell, the gremlins under Nathir were no longer affected. They waved the metal chain balls in their hands and smashed them at Roy one after another. Under the cover of the long-range troops, the iron golem and the stone gargoyles also charged at Roy.

In an instant, Roy was surrounded by these Academy troops and fell into the human sea tactic. He initially wanted to use magic to attack, but Nathir continuously enhanced the troops from behind. In addition to the Air Shield at the beginning, when he discovered that Roy could still use frost magic, he immediately cast an Ice Shield on the troops to resist frost attacks. Although Roy’s magic could still attack these troops, the lethality was much weaker, and he could no longer kill them as easily as before.
