As he remembered the various ways Raka had tortured him, Krune's expression turned cold. For a moment, all the people living in the old age home experienced a sudden chill, as if they had returned to the battlefield once again. 

The chill disappeared in less than an instant as they wondered if they were going senile. As for Krune, he quickly controlled his emotions, returning to normal. Even though it seemed like he hadn't changed much from before, only did now Krune realize that he was almost like a different individual. 

He understood that he was capable of vicious things now that his prior self couldn't have even thought about. He still tried to stick to his old ways, but once his switch was flipped, he was even worse than the devil. 

Krune then focused on the details about the Essence Generator, immediately sweating once he understood the details, realizing why humans failed to produce any Tier 6 beings. After all, a human could only use the Essence generated from a Demon Core of their tier and above. 

Essence generated from lower-tier Demon Cores won't be effective. So, it was impossible to grow stronger by relying on the Demon Cores of weaker demons. The following was the weight an Essence gave to a human when consumed. 

[Tier 1 Essence: 1 kilogram]

[Tier 2 Essence: 3 kilograms]

[Tier 3 Essence: 10 kilograms]

[Tier 4 Essence: 30 kilograms]

[Tier 5 Essence: 100 kilograms]

Krune saw that there wasn't anything mentioned about a Tier 6 Essence. "I mean, if no one has ever killed a Demon God, it makes sense that they don't have information about how much weight it could add to the consumer."

"Still..." He frowned after that. "Just how much should one kill before they're able to reach Tier 5? Thankfully, there's an endless number of demons here. So, it won't be an issue for me as long as I get my hands on an Essence Generator. There's a good chance my face would be plastered across everywhere, so I can't appear anywhere in public."

It was because there were electronics in the place. The development seemed like they had just used the electronics from the God Realm. There were TV, radios, and so on. As for transport, as the city was crowded due to the sheer number of people, only skates were allowed to be used as a means of transport. 

There also seemed to be buses that used an underground route to travel from one place to another within the city. After all, spanning a radius of 300 kilometers and filled to the brim with skyscrapers, it was one massive dwelling of humans.

As for the means to fight, it seemed that a human was slightly stronger than a demon from the same tier. It was because humans wielded weapons called Demon Arms that were made from the bones and hearts of demons. 

It seemed like Demon Arms gave a slight boost in power to the humans by drinking their blood. This allowed humans to defeat the demons in their fights and accumulate more Demon Cores. That was the prime reason the city hadn't fallen to the endless horde of demons yet. 

The Demon Arms were also divided into Tiers based on their raw materials. Of course, the higher the tier, the greater the power boost it provided. 

"Now, I have to begin searching for ways to get stronger," Krune said once he completed his mini reading session, clenching his arms while feeling up his legs to see that he was completely cured. As for his Ocean Heart, there was just half a crimson ring filled with energy. He was still a long way off from filling it full of energy.



Once the problem with the miasma had been dealt with, all the important figures of Demon Wall 22 were converged in a meeting. All of them were Tier 5 humans, the powerhouses that served as their city's pillars. 

Among them, Raka stood up as she explained everything she had discovered. "The suspect's name is Krune. His race is unknown, but appearance-wise, he seems human. Nevertheless, his blood is capable of freezing anything once it leaves his body. Even demons don't have such power. There's a good chance he's a cross-breed of a human and a demon."

"Other than that…." Raka hesitated for a moment before speaking, "I have found out the details of the fifth item in his Tablet."

She paused, noticing the eyes of everyone fall on her, intent on whatever she did. For a moment, their rapt attention triggered her inner demon, wishing to play with the feelings as she had done with the numerous Demons she had imprisoned. 

But upon realizing that the people before her were humans, and some of them happened to be her superiors, she barely reined in her thoughts, saying, "I don't know what it actually means. But, the fifth item is a Ticket to Layer 1. And, the cost seems to be 1000 Godly Points. I have no idea what this Layer 1 means."

As Raka said that, she noticed the expressions of the City Lord and a couple others fluctuate. But, it was only for a fraction of a second before their expressions turned normal. The change caught her eyes, making her wonder the reason. 

But upon seeing that they hadn't said anything else, she couldn't probe them any further. But she didn't wish to leave it as is. After all, Krune had gone missing. For the first time, she discovered a new species that might prove to be a threat to them, having witnessed the power Krune erupted with despite being only as heavy as a Demon Child. 

So, she was alarmed, wishing to figure out his secrets. Unfortunately for her, when she had brought his Tablet and his armor to show to the City Lord and the other authorities, a prison break had occurred. And, all the demons had escaped. 

She didn't know if Krune had escaped or had been eaten alive. But since the prison got burnt down, she lost the remaining pieces of evidence and items Krune had brought with him. As there were many odd points, she said with assurance, "Krune is neither human nor a Demon. There's a good possibility that's he's part of a new race."
