BXBX NOVEL Chapter 220: Normal Ways
Though strong enough for a demon lord, there were far too many monsters and powerhouses in this world.
He had barely scratched the surface and had not yet seen how powerful high-tier cities were or what secret weapons they had stored.
There was no way those four hunters were all they had. If that were the case, the Corrupteds would have long since wiped out all the humans in this world.
And then there was that Alliance of Demons that has a treaty with humans.
He was pretty sure they would not stand idle either after the human governments started pressuring them to do something about him. .
This was a political disaster for the demon side.
Even if he was not part of the alliance, they would pressure the demons with authorities to kill him to maintain the balance.
It was a case of "your race, your problem," and knowing how cunning humans were, they would immediately use his existence as a bargaining chip against the demons.
Plus, demons would also not like him to continue killing human cities because, from his information, demons and humans work together to maintain balance.
If humans went extinct, then the whole demon population would also vanish after having no source of food.
\'Yeah, I need to prepare more,\' he muttered to himself, making a mental note to never be complacent, especially now that his actions had become bolder and more daring.
Back in the present, he focused his attention on the Mutation Organs he got from the hunters, specifically the crystallized Rune Hearts.
Unlike Jayden/Arc, who forcibly activated the rune power to boost his abilities recklessly, the four hunters had already integrated the rune power into their bodies.
This allowed Reign to absorb their Rune Hearts without too much backlash.
Coupled with his already high endurance, he only felt an itch after absorbing it.
Now, there was another tab on his window showing all the runes he had integrated with his body.
Having these runes inside him, he felt that his control over the elements had improved by a large margin.
These enhancements were more than just an increase in power. They created a deeper connection to the natural world, blending his essence with the raw forces of the elements.
The best part was that they integrated into his core without interfering with the flow of energy.
They were just there to help him control the different elemental energies, making it much easier to avoid clashes and incompatibility between them.
Aside from that, his mutation organ had also been improved. Those redundant ones were absorbed by their more powerful versions.
For example , the Salamander Organs had been absorbed by the Fire Drake.
He also gained two organs from the three hunters who were using the Storm Falcon Breathing Technique.
One of them was an Eye Organ, which was directly absorbed by his Raven Eyes, and another was related to bone, which was absorbed by his Bone Enhancement.
The only new stand alone he got was the Storm Falcon Talon, which allowed him to generate more wind by incorporating the talon into his wings.
Finally, there was the hunter with the Ape Technique.
All his skills were physical-related, so they too were absorbed by his Bone Enhancement.
Next he started allocating his skill points.
\'Sweet,\' Reign chuckled after seeing that the allowable upgrade for his skills using skill points went up from 20 to 30. He quickly upgraded all his skills, spending 101 skill points in total.

============
\'Sweet,\' Reign muttered, pleased to see the increase in his Bone Enhancement, which had risen from 40 to 50.
After checking all his stats, Reign took a moment to assess his current situation.
It was obvious that he was now far stronger and could do things he normally would not be able to do.
So what should be his next moved?
Destroy another city right away?
As Reign pondered, his gaze was caught by the -2,500,000 Dark Dust.
An idea sparked in his mind.
He was in need of the seed that could be bought using Dark Dust, and at the same time, he could also take this time to go under the radar.
This way, he could avoid being tracked down and wait for the humans and other factions to lower their guards again after a certain period.
And what better place to hide than inside the dark mist, where signals and any kind of tracking were completely blocked off.
\'I\'ll go with that plan then,\' he nodded.
He didn\'t see anything wrong with it.
\'But before that, I need to wrap this up first,\' he grinned and flew up high, scanning the area for the location of the Evacuation Center.
When he pinpointed it, he flew towards it and descended rapidly .
As he reached the surface, he clenched his fist tightly and punched the ground with immense force.
BOOOOOOM!
The impact created a massive explosion, sending shock-waves rippling through the air and opening up a path for him with a deafening roar.
This city was already dead, so there was no need for him to hold back.
As expected, the people inside the place were barely living, and Reign\'s punch extinguished the last chance of life from them.
Without batting an eye, he began absorbing everything using hundreds of tendrils, snaking through the collapsed underground structure.
Each tendril pierce the bodies as it extracted every last bit of vitality , leaving nothing but their clothing.
Reign moved methodically, his unreadable and detached as he continued feasting without a care in the world
It was a brutal action for the majority, but was just the norm for him.
After sweeping everything dry, he took to the sky again and looked in the direction of the military bases.
Aiku had provided him with a detailed map of the entire city, highlighting the locations of the military bases and industrial areas outside the metal walls. These places housed thousands of people.
With a goal in mind, he set his sights on the military bases and industrial zones, determined to leave no stone unturned in his search for more humans to devour .
