Demon Emperors
Ch.41 - Frog In A Well

It only takes a matter of seconds for Cyrus to absorb souls one by one on the first floor, with the help of Qwerty he can perform the absorption of as many as 150 souls within a period of 2 hours.

Within 2 hours, Cyrus managed to get 75,000,000 Exp. and got a lot of notifications from Qwerty because he had levelled up, but he was a little disappointed that he did not get honor points as well.

After absorbing the soul and obtaining many levels on the first floor, Cyrus now felt a multiplicity of strength rising within his body.

But strangely Cyrus did not show any change in form after absorbing that many warrior souls. In general all the previous crown princes who managed to absorb the souls of the ancestors on the first floor, they would bring something new to his body.

Something that appears is like a new horn coming out on his forehead, the appearance of a wing on his back, or at least the growth of a more muscular body than before.

The peculiarity of Cyrus' body made Eterna even more curious about what Cyrus was doing, she asked doubtfully. “T-master, did you absorb the warrior soul correctly?”

Small smile Cyrus answer question doubt Eterna, “What's the matter?”

“You do it very quickly without feeling the slightest pain, unless you smile happily as the souls begin to enter your body.”.

Cyrus laughed and replied, “Hahaha…. Don't you think about me, you've done your job well.” Cyrus' words made Eterna speechless, she did not dare to continue her question.

On the other hand, Eliza was busy running here and there, she put on a look of annoyed and confused face like she was looking for something.

“Hey you... have you seen Cyrus?” eliza asked one of the servants around her.

“I don't see young master, miss.”

With a sullen look of face he left the servant and continued to search for Cyrus' whereabouts. “How can you go without me..” murmured Eliza.

Whenever Eliza came across the royal servants and guards, she always asked in an annoyed tone to all of them. Eliza also asked her mother's father, but no one knew of Cyrus' whereabouts.

The uproar inside the palace made Cleo feel disturbed and curious what was going on, “What is this? why is Eliza making a fuss again?” cleo asked the royal bodyguard in front of the door of his room.

“Nona Eliza is looking for young master Cyrus, Your Majesty.” she replied while saluting.

Cleo rubbed her forehead while muttering, “Ahh... basic girl....” then she continued, “Call Eliza here..

“Good, Your Grace..”

Cleo waited for Eliza's arrival in front of her room while thinking of the right way to persuade her to stop making a mess.

However, the place to go to the ancestral tomb in Cleo's private room must be kept secret. No one knew of it except the owner of the blood magic.

Not long after Eliza came to meet Cleo's call, without greeting her he hurriedly asked, “Grandfather, have you seen Cyrus?”

“He is carrying out his duties as the crown prince of the kingdom.” Cleo replied calmly.

Hearing Cleo's reply, he made his feelings a little calm as he got a hint of Cyrus' whereabouts.

Eliza asked once again, “What task is that? Where is she?” this time he spoke more calmly than before.

Cleo shook her head with a small smile for a few seconds, signaling she did not want to answer her question.

Then Cleo said, “Stop making a fuss. Remember you just escaped the death penalty.” He said with a smile.

Cleo's smile made Eliza's annoyed feelings turn into fear due to the trauma of being sentenced to death a few days ago.

“T-thank you Your Majesty the king has reminded me.. Eliza please leave..” said Eliza hurriedly left Cleo who was looking at her with a smile.

Eliza went away with mixed feelings, between her annoyance and the trauma she felt. As he walked away from Cleo, he said inwardly. “Just wait for you old fucking devil.The crown prince's wife is not worth your piercing..” Eliza clenched her fingers tightly while holding back the tears she held inside her eyelids.

Eventually Eliza went to her room and shut herself in waiting for her husband, Cyrus Alexander.

120 Minutes had passed, inside the ancestral tomb Cyrus was absorbing the soul of the last coffin that was on the first floor.

[Soul absorption works. ]

[ Level up. ]

This time Cyrus managed to absorb 300 souls on the first floor. “What a pleasure.. lest I be late, surely I absorb all the souls that demon king Lucifer provides..” Mumbled Cyrus was half satisfied with the free Exp he got.

Previously on the first floor there were 500 coffins, as the coffin had been opened by the previous crown prince and left only 300 coffins still sealed.

Eterna let out a clearly visible amazed expression in her eyeballs, “Really shocking…” says Eterna in heart.

After successfully absorbing all the souls on the first floor, this time he was curious about the development of his status.

“Qwerty, open status.”

“Thank you, ancestor...I will use this power to rule this world.” Cyrus said in his heart.

After seeing her status and level, Cyrus was curious about Lucifer's level. “Eterna, what level does the demon lord Lucifer have when he rules the Allstar planet?”

Eterna thought for a moment, “hm... if not mistakenly remembered, lord Lucifer level 1,487 before he sealed himself to meditate for 100 years then managed to rule the planet Allstar.” Replied Eterna who boasted the figure of her master.

Cyrus widened her eyelids, “Wait... are you serious about what you say?” he said with a surprised face and a high tone.

“This old man, did not dare to lie about lord Lucifer Charlotte..” Eterna replied trying to convince the distrust of Cyrus.

Cyrus was silent after hearing Eterna's reply, he said inwardly. “Level 1.487? Even before conquering the planet Allstar..Naif once I was satisfied with my current level..”.

Finally Cyrus understood well, it was still too early for him to be complacent with his current level and power. Like a frog in a well that does not understand the law of the jungle in this world.

“Alright.. show the way to the second floor, Eterna...”.
