I Became the Demon King of Lust

We continued on further into the dungeon after taking down the area boss.

But this time, it almost seemed like a competition between Long Shui Ling and Claire as they competed on how many monsters they could kill.

Both of them were strong, so they didn't need our help at all to kill these bat monsters.

I might have been worried about Claire, but it seemed that she had also grown stronger during our break.

She had been working hard while I was away, working hard to make herself stronger.

But it wasn't just her alone that was getting stronger, the rest of them had also gotten stronger.

Even though we were in the dungeon, they all looked relaxed.

They were no longer tense like when we had dived into dungeons together. They were no longer affected by the trauma of their first time in the dungeon, so they were much stronger for it.

The only thing that could cure that was experience, so it was clear that they had gotten plenty of experience while I was gone.

Seeing them like this, I couldn't help feeling proud.

After all, they were like kids that I had raised.

I did the same thing for Long Shui Ling and patted the four of them on the head as well before saying, "Good job getting stronger while I was away."

The one that received the head pat last was Claire and she couldn't help revealing a smile as I patted her on the head.

There was also a faint blush that was on her face as I did this.

But the worst and confusing part of it all was the way that Long Shui Ling looked at me with an angry look on her face.

With the map, it didn't take us long to reach the dungeon boss.

This was the last fight, so everyone was eager to show off what they had learned during this time.

After all, Claire and Long Shui Ling had hogged the monsters on the way here.

But I wouldn't let them go.

Even if we had all become stronger during this time, I didn't let them let their guard down now that it was the final boss. This boss would still be powerful since it was able to rule over a dungeon like this.

When we arrived in the final boss room, I peeked in to take a look at it.

Strangely, this room was brightly lit unlike the rest of the dungeon.

I was able to clearly see what was in the center of this 'room'.

Though it was the boss room, it was actually a cave just like the area boss room.

But that just made it more weird that it was brightly lit.

In the center of this room, there was a black mass that was curled up.

Unlike the bats that had been hanging off the ceiling before, this thing was just crouched there on the ground in the center of this room.

It was as if it was huddling in the shape of a ball which seemed very strange.

There weren't any other things that were in this room other than that black mass that was in the center.

It was clear that this black mass was the boss, but just what was it?

Everyone narrowed their eyes to look at it, as if they were trying to figure out what it was.

But I narrowed my eyes for a different reason.

I had the demon lord system, so I was able to analyze it with that.

Golbat

Once it strikes, it will not stop draining energy from the victim even if it gets too heavy to fly.

Golbat?

What was a golbat?

And wasn't this description a bit too vague?

At the very least, I was able to see its stats and the abilities that it had.

But there was also a strange thing that was in the description along with all of this.

What did it mean by poison/flying type?

Still regardless, at least I was able to learn a bit about this boss in the center of this room.

Such as what kind of attacks it would have.

This was more than valuable enough.

The only problem was how to tell everyone else about this.

If I were to suddenly tell them, they would without a doubt be suspicious since I would have seemingly gotten this knowledge out of thin air.

I had to think of an excuse before I did anything.

Luckily for me, there was the young miss Long Shui Ling.

She pulled out a thing that seemed like a tablet that she pointed at the black mass in the center.

After she pointed this tablet at the black mass in the center, there was text that suddenly appeared on this tablet.

Golbat

It attacks in a stealthy manner, without warning. Its sharp fangs are used to bite and suck blood.

It had the same name, but there was a different description under that name…

At the same time, there weren't the stats and abilities that my appraisal had found.

But still, it was amazing that it got the name right.

I pointed at this thing that Long Shui Ling was holding and asked, "What is this thing?"

Long Shui Ling raised it up with a proud look on her face before saying, "It's a tablet that has Appraisal magic inscribed on it. It's one of the new products that our company created not that long ago, but it's still not stable."

After a pause, she still added, "It's not able to reproduce the effects of a high grade Appraisal ability, but it is able to give some information at least."

Claire said under her breath with a snort, "Humph, it's something that your family gave you, what are you so proud of?"

Long Shui Ling narrowed her eyes to look at Claire since she heard this, but she didn't say anything in response.

The rest of us couldn't help looking at Long Shui Ling with amazed looks.

We never thought that such a product would be possible.

After all, Appraisal was a skill that was very rare in the first place, so there was no need to mention doing something like recreating it with machinery.

This was without a doubt a revolutionary item and Long Shui Ling was taking it out so easily…
