Omega Summoner

Chapter 644: The Daemonios

Emrys is no longer the powerful wizard that he was. He is now just an old man that has normal magical energy as his vast amounts of mana is being used to stop the curse from spreading to his body. The other individuals that he is with are more like people that are his medical helpers.

They do not have the same amount of mana as Emrys, but they are also undeniably Daemonios. Beings that have the blood of demons but look more human as their demon blood has diluted over the years. Emrys seems to be special as he was born with a higher density of demon blood which made him the strongest of the half demons.

”Like the rest of the races that want to immigrate here in my territory, what can you offer in exchange for living here?” Adrian asked as he looked at Emrys with seriousness.

Adrian might not believe in stuff like the past defines a person but the rebellion of the Daemonios surely made the Daemos have some lingering resentment. The Daemos are basically immortal which means that they remember and probably lived through the betrayal of the Daemonios.

”We cannot offer much but we are proficient when it comes to magic of all elements as our constitution is different from normal humans.” Emrys stated.

”If it is just guards then us, Daemos, are enough since our spatial and time magic offer better protection than you think.” Ascalor stated as he is clearly a bit mad at the Daemonios.

”I am sure that you are saying that because of what our ancestors did but let me gently remind you that we age like humans. We may age slower than normal humans, but we still die unlike the Daemos that do not age. Your race might not have forgotten what happened but the majority of the Daemonios do not know of what happened.” Emrys stated as he could feel the slight anger from Ascalor.

”You are correct that some of us have not let go of what your ancestors did but being proficient in magic is not enough. There are other races that came before you that are masters in their own attributes. You must offer something that is of more value if you really want to stay in my territory.” Adrian stated as he released his Asmodian aura.

”We knew that our magic proficiency will not be enough which is why we brought a gift.” Emrys stated as he gestured to bring the thing that they brought to the table where Adrian is at.

”Wait there. I will come and get your gift and examine it.” One of the elven elders stated as they received the gift and unveiled it before Adrian.

The gift that the Daemonios gave is none other than a processed magic stone. The elven elders looked at it with great interest as they never seen fine craftsmanship when it came to magic stones. The layering is perfect to the point that the magic stone is not even damaged.

”Where did you get such fine engraved magic stone?” One of the elven elders asked.

”That is the product of our secret technique in creating a layered magic stone. We, the Daemonios, have made it ourselves. I believe that this will be important enough for us to stay in your territory.” Emrys stated as he knows the great value of this magic stone.

The layering that they created made the magic stone 50% more effective as it increased the mana that it gathered and stored. They basically made enhancement on magic stones which will make it more powerful when it is used as a material for crafting equipment.

”This is a valuable thing, Champion Equinox. A layered magic stone like this will cost a fortune even for kings of nations. It can also be processed to create magic barriers or magic spells that act as defensive mechanisms.” One of the elven elders stated which also made Ascalor agree.

”Should we accept them?” Adrian asked Ascalor as he knew that other Daemos might give the Daemonios a difficult time.

”Although their ancestors are the ones that sinned, you cannot say that the past will not repeat. We shall put them under surveillance but their technique in creating magic stones is important. That research freak of an elder will also agree as he believes that knowledge is power.” Ascalor stated but he is still wary of the Daemonios.

”In exchange for your valuable craftsmanship technique in processing magic stones, we shall accept the Daemonios in my territory. All of you must pledge your loyalty to me when all of your group arrives. Those that do not pledge their loyalty will be sent away be it children, adult or elderly.” Adrian stated as he used his imposing aura.

”A safe haven is all that we could ask for. Thank you, young lord. My heart is now lighter seeing that my people will be granted safe passage from the harm that the world is facing right now.” Emrys stated as he bowed to Adrian.

The dignity of the Imperial Grand Wizard is no longer visible but the aura of an old man that is heavily cursed. Adrian could find a way to cure Emrysʼ curse, but he was not asked to do that. He will not move unless he is told to or commissioned to action.

When the Daemonios left, Adrian stood up from his seat and inspected the other floating island that will be the new land where those that immigrate will stay. He already put the areas into sections and asked the elves to create temporary tree houses made from Nature magic for the new residents.

He also saw the marshlands that Pann created, and he saw the Lizardmen already doing their jobs. They stopped their work and kneeled when they saw Adrian pass by, but they are dedicated to their responsibilities.

Adrian knew that different races living together in an area will not immediately lead to harmony. He asked the elven elders and Daemos to handle disputes while he is not around. In the end, Adrian is smiling because of the increasing specialties that he could make.
