Soul Devourer Chapter 5 Episode 23 — The Underlings Reach A-Rank

After finishing the third dungeon attack, I checked the current status of my subordinates once more.

Name: Samael, the Toxic Cataclysm

Level: 73 (+12)

Rank: A-Rank

Stats

・Magic Power　309

・Strength　314

・Durability　321 (314+7)

・Agility　315 (314+1)

・Intelligence　310 (309+1)

・Spirit　322 (314+8)

・Dexterity　309

・Luck　315 (314+1)

Skill Points

Remaining　72

━━━━━━━━━━

Having surpassed level 70, Samael had grown into an overwhelming gigantic body reaching seventy meters in total length.

Its rank had also advanced to A-Rank, and not just any ordinary A-Rank.

If classified more precisely, it would be upper-tier A-Rank.

In other words, a being capable of standing shoulder to shoulder with a Flame Wyvern.

From here, if I distributed skill points and allocated the excess experience points I possessed… then defeating a Flame Wyvern one-on-one would become entirely realistic.

Name: Santa Muerte, the Eternal Magus

Level: 60 (+16)

Rank: A-Rank

Stats

・Magic Power　228 (219+9)

・Strength　214

・Durability　222 (214+8)

・Agility　216 (214+2)

・Intelligence　228 (219+9)

・Spirit　227 (219+8)

・Dexterity　215 (214+1)

・Luck　217 (214+3)

Skill Points

Remaining　59

━━━━━━━━━━

Santa Muerte had also reached level 60, with a height of roughly 160 centimeters.

Though the same A-Rank, its actual combat strength was closer to that of an A-Rank dungeon boss.

It still fell slightly short of a Flame Wyvern.

But, there's still more than enough room to grow.

Nox Chevalier had also safely advanced into A-Rank.

Though, classification-wise, it was lower-tier A-Rank.

At about the same height as Santa Muerte, the intimidation emitted by its jet-black full-body armor still couldn’t truly display its full potential.

But that, too, is only a matter of time.

The status check was complete.

From here, I would strengthen them all at once.

First was Samael. Using skill points, I raised all of its skills to Level 2.

Then, consuming 64,722,000 excess experience points, I raised every skill except【Intimidation】to Level 8.

I stopped【Intimidation】at Level 5, and used the unlocked superior skill【Sovereign Aura】to likewise raise it to Level 8.

Next came Santa Muerte.

In the same way, I first adjusted all skills to Level 2 using skill points, then consumed 129,449,600 excess experience points to raise everything except【Intimidation】to level 8.

The unlocked【Sovereign Aura】was also immediately pushed to Level 8.

Finally, Nox Chevalier.

Following the same procedure, I distributed skill points and consumed 73,971,200 excess experience points to raise everything except【Intimidation】to Level 8.

Naturally,【Sovereign Aura】was also raised to Level 8.

“…Alright.”

I nodded instinctively.

It wasn’t just the numbers. Their strength had changed noticeably.

“Starting next time, you’re not just being protected anymore. You’ll move to the front and participate in combat too. Don’t be satisfied with simply raising your skill levels. Gain real combat experience in actual battles.”

~wiggle~squirm~wiggle~wiggle~

~clatter~clatter~clatter~clatter~

~~~~~

Each of them was probably expressing clear determination in their own way.

After finishing my orders, I returned the Amortas Magia that had been accompanying us as guards back into the《Immortal Sage’s Ring》, and quietly purified the Elder Liches, that had fulfilled their role, with【Holy Magic】.

Today’s dungeon attack was over.

I set up a tent some distance away from the entrance and placed monster-repelling items made from Orc body odor around the area.

After entering the tent, I created fist-sized chunks of ice with【Ice Magic】and placed them in the corners to combat the heat.

I finished eating and changing clothes, then lazily relaxed while looking at my phone for a while.

Before falling asleep, I ordered Samael and the others to remain on standby there, then closed my eyes.
