I Was Reborn, but I Was Told That the Popular Standard Skills Were No Good, so I Chose the Skill of Collecting [Title] - CH 235

“How could I have thought of fitting this ball to my sword, then?”

I did what happened to be the only right thing to do by chance.

“That’s not quite right. The ball is a temporary soul. The soul tries to fit into a vessel, even if it’s temporary. That must have affected you subconsciously.”

It wasn’t that I was great at all. This was the result of being guided by the ball.

“And I have one last thing to say.”

“Hmm?”

The Beast King spoke to me, his tail tapping against the sword.

“With us in here, we’re only going to be able to use 50% of our power at best.”

“Eh?”

“Of course, it doesn’t matter that one sword can contain two species, one spirit and one beast. The reason is that this vessel was never intended to make a contract with us kings in the first place.”

“Ah…”

It’s true that the power of the king of the tribe cannot be contained in a sword.

“So I can only use half the power of the two of you?”

“Hear me out. That’s what happens when you keep us inside the sword.”

But I already have Yug and Zeal in my body, so there’s nothing I can do about it, is there? Ah, well, if I let the two of them out, I can use my maximum power. But that would make it difficult to use in many situations.

“You seem to be thinking the wrong thing, so I’ll explain it to you. You can change which one you carry in your body depending on when you fight. Fortunately, the swords can hold both spirits. So it’s possible to transfer the spirit once into the sword.”

So even if I make a contract with the ball which is a temporary soul, and lodge it in the sword, I can still transfer it, since I’m the master of the sword.

“The spirit descent is called “having the spirit in one’s body,” but technically it’s more like being clothed by the spirit. In that state, we can enter you. And by the way, if either one of us goes to the spirit world, your body will be empty.”

“I see…so in other words, if I descend Zeal in spirit and have Yug get the magical power from the spirit world, I can use the power of the Devil King and the Beast King to the fullest. And even further down the road, can I possess two Devils while descending from the spirit world?”

“Well, this is not a story for someone who can’t even use the immature Spirit King to her full potential. With the current you, our power can only be estimated at a little more than 30 percent.”

“Eh……”

And it seems that 30% or more is the case when I concentrate all my energy on one person. Then what was the point of what we just talked about…? Give me back my excitement. I mean, you’re planning on getting the hell out of me soon, right? Then it doesn’t matter. ……

“So what about our contract? We’re about to run out of time.”

“Fine.”

I was about to get out of bed to go get my sword, when it came to me of its own accord. Since when do you listen to me?

“Bros, Darki, take care of me from now on.”

I named the Devil King Bros and the Beast King Darki. And so the contract between me, the Devil King, and the Beast King was sealed.

“Picon! 』

『You have acquired Devil Magic Lv.1. 』

『You have acquired Devilize Lv.1. 』

『You have acquired Beastification Lv.1. 』

『The title “Devil Master” has been acquired. 』

『The title of [Title] Beast King has been acquired. 』

The title of “Spirit King,” “Devil King,” and “Beast King” have been merged into the title of “King of the Three Kings,” and “Ruler of Kings.”

I had a hunch, but I got new skills and a new title. And I think I’m going to get another title when I use the new skills. I’ll have to think about which title to set again. I’m happy with the new titles, but it’s a hassle there…

? Point of view

“…Where are you going?”

I called out to my compatriot, who suddenly stood up.

“You already know without having to ask?”

Surely I knew without asking. Because we were looking at the same thing.

“You’re changing the subject. What are you going to do?”

“You know what I’m going to do, don’t you? I’m bringing him here.”

“What are you bringing him here for? He’s not a Demon.”

“We’ll just make him a Demon then.”

“He can’t evolve because he’s still at a low level.”

I had just thought of the worst possible thing to do. I was surprised and he grinned at me.

“I’m sure it’s just as you imagined. We could use all the Demons here as fodder for him to raise his level. If we do that, I’m sure his level will go up quite a bit. Besides, once the Demons are gone, it won’t be a problem to bring him here, right?”

“If we turn him into a Demon, he’ll lose the contract, right?”

He must have been concerned about that. That’s why he should have stopped forcing me to bring him back before. Besides, if the four contracts are cancelled, there’ll be no reason to bring him back now. That’s probably why he’s trying to force me to bring him back.

“We can do it for the Demons, too. I know he can mix multiple races. The question is whether or not demon will be included in his next evolution, but if you do it with me a lot, you’ll get a title, so I don’t think you need to worry about that.”

“Do you think I’d let that happen?”

I stood up and blocked her way. I can’t let her go.

“You’re going to fight me? Who do you think made you the Demon king?”

“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you like that.”

She changed from her usual boyish female appearance to that of a good looking man. Incidentally, when I first met this guy, he looked like this.

“Fufu…. I don’t want you to see me like this. I didn’t think I’ll ever look like this again. I don’t know what I would do in shock if he saw me like this. Besides, a small fry Demonl like me, a Demon who’s not even ranked, can’t win against a SS-ranked dragon Demon.”

He returned to his boyish female form again. The original Demon that this guy is based on is a slime. Slimes do not have a gender. So this one has no concept of gender either. It can be a man or a woman.

“Thanks to you dragon-kun, I know how to create Devils, and for now I have no intention of doing anything about it, so don’t worry.”

“………”

Seeing this guy sitting back down, I sat down too. I wonder if someday when this guy becomes an enemy, I…no, I wonder if the Demons will be able to win….
