Every war had to have supplies. There was some truth to this.

Not because of the need for supplies, but because there was a need to fight! Roy was just a low-rank demon for now, and his current fighting methods were basically melee. Imagine how dangerous it would be for him on a chaotic battlefield with magic flying. No one desired death. And since he did not want to die, it was necessary to convert all his savings into immediate combat power.


Was it worse for a person to be living without money or to have a lot of money but be dead? Roy always felt that the latter was the most tragic. Only when you were alive could you have the capital to become stronger. Did he not accumulate souls to deal with such a moment?

Thinking back, it was the first time Roy possessed so many souls at one time. He used whatever he had when he was in the Abyss. The most he had ever used was the hundred-odd to materialize the T-Virus. The six hundred-odd souls he had now gave Roy a huge boost in confidence.

Therefore, he intended to spend them all in one shot, wanting to see how much he could strengthen himself with them.

During his time following Xeron’s expedition, he did not need to fight every day, so Roy used his free time designing his strengthening plans. It was not that it was the critical moment he needed to start his designs. However, designing and drawing the materials required a fair amount of time after all. He was worried that it would be too late when the time came.

In this high-magic world, he expected to meet powerful creatures such as dragons, angels, behemoths, and even titans. These powerful creatures were not something Roy could handle at his current stage, so his designs were mostly defensive.

That’s right. Defensive, defend once, feel good once, defend all the time, and feel good all the time!

Roy was also beginning to understand why demons put so much emphasis on bloodlines. Looking at dragons and titans, which were not born powerful? Any infant dragon could probably kill dozens of low-rank demons. The purer the bloodline, the stronger the strength, the higher the growth limit. It was the same even when he was human. Even reincarnation became a skill. Being born into a wealthy family and being born into a poor family were two completely different growth environments.

He did not want to admit it, but classes did indeed exist…

Roy currently did not have the capital to deal with these powerful creatures, and he had no reason to continue fighting for Xeron either. His goals were simple: stay alive, find a way to kill Xeron, and be free from the restraint of the demon contract.

Therefore, Roy’s first strengthening plan was a set of armor!

Be it humans, demons, elves, or even orcs, it was very common to use foreign objects to make weapons and armor to enhance their attack and defense. Roy was naturally no exception. Therefore, he designed a set of armor for himself at the beginning and continuously revised it. Roy felt dissatisfied with the armor even after that, so he simply changed it into a set of Holy Cloth!

Yes, Holy Cloth! A Holy Cloth from Saint Seiya! Of course, he was just referring to their appearances here.

As an art designer, in addition to requiring his own creativity, Roy imitated some classic drawings before. Not only him, but anyone with a foundation in drawing and was obsessed with the anime probably tried to imitate its art. The only difference was that Roy was a professional and could draw better.

When Roy began, he designed it to be the Gemini Cloth. He drew it as a one piece directly, not the kind that combined. He chose Gemini because Roy himself was a Gemini. After thinking about it, he decided to change it because the shiny gold-colored armor appearance was too incompatible with a demon. In the end, he changed it to one of Hades’s Specters, Celestial Fierce Star Rhadamanthys’s Wyvern Surplice!
