I Am Doing Daily Tasks in the Wizarding World

“Biological wizard towers may be beneficial for Maybetessa, but that’s not necessarily the case for other wizards who choose this path. It could be either good or bad; you need to discern it for yourself,” Harin said, placing his hand on Lynn’s shoulder.

Back at the wizard academy, Lynn rubbed his forehead, gazing at the empty surroundings. The four-armed brute force demon was still in the Abyss. Wouldn’t it be lost?

After painstakingly cultivating a fifth-level demon, it had reached a level where it could directly confront even a first-level wizard. Losing it would be something Lynn truly couldn’t bear.

Lynn activated his ring and stepped through the spatial portal, returning to the Abyss.

Surveying his surroundings, he found himself in the same location as before. It seemed that every time he entered through the ring, he arrived at a fixed node.

However, there was no sign of the four-armed brute force demon. Frowning, Lynn decided to write a message on the ground, instructing the four-armed brute force demon to let it wait for him here if it returned to this place.

With that done, Lynn returned to Demon City.

For the next half month, the dwarves worked on forging the ores into weapons, with some leftover ores being of no use. Lynn extracted the valuable ores, sold it, and used the proceeds to replace it with raw ores needed for weapon production.

As he inspected the newly crafted weapons, Lynn was eager to initiate a new trade. Since the weapons made from this special metal had a shelf life of only five years, delaying the process would waste their optimal performance period.

Upon re-entering the Abyss, Lynn saw the four-armed brute force demon waiting on the side. The moment the demon spotted Lynn, it joyfully ran over, its massive form causing the ground to tremble. It wrapped its four arms around Lynn and tossed him into the air.

The fly demon, who had received the message, hurriedly arrived after a day’s journey. This time, the fly demon brought a large quantity of ores, some of which was stained with dried blood.

At Lynn’s request, this batch of ores not only included the “payment” for the current batch of weapons but also served as a “deposit” for the next batch. Thus, the amount was substantial. After inspecting the ores, Lynn happily completed the transaction with the fly demon.

The fly demon was equally pleased. After the last batch of weapons was brought back and examined by Dyo, it was found that the weapons were of exceptional quality.

The fly demon received numerous rewards for its efforts. Although the territory was still in its early stages of development, and thus the tangible rewards were limited, the elevation in status greatly satisfied the demon.

Furthermore, Dyo did not seem to be concerned about the disappearance of the bone dragon. The disappearance of the bone dragon, along with the fly demon’s rise in prominence, had alerted a different group of smaller factions.

However, the group in question was a loosely allied coalition that had little connection to the bone dragon. After the bone dragon’s disappearance, these factions were embroiled in their own petty struggles over the minor privileges the bone dragon had left behind. Their attention was thus diverted from troubling the fly demon.

Seeing this, the fly demon merely sneered contemptuously. A bunch of muscle-brained fools, he thought. Oh, and if the bone dragon was to be included, then the group consisted of one more empty-headed idiot.

Due to the importance of the weapons, Dyo placed great value on the transactions with Lynn. This batch of ores, in particular, was directly robbed.

Ores, when not forged into weapons, were merely piles of useless rocks. It was only when transformed into weapons that they could realize their true value.

Previously, Dyo’s transactions with Lynn had been motivated by her daughter Kathryn. Now, however, there were additional factors at play.

As the trade between them progressed smoothly, Lynn found himself happy and relaxed. With the increasing number of weapons, Dyo’s demon army grew in strength, contributing significantly to her expansion efforts in the Abyss.

It was a positive feedback loop.

As for Lynn, with the continuous influx of ores, he either stored the excess or traded it for magic stones. The limited number of dwarves meant that the monthly production of weapons had reached its saturation point and the current upper limit.

Aside from regular trades, most of Lynn’s time was dedicated to research and study. He also began preparations for constructing a wizard tower.

At the same time, Lynn conducted experiments with the two vials of demon blood essence.

The results were highly satisfactory. During the fusion process of the blood essence of the horned demon with a goblin, a conflict arose. The goblin grotesquely mutated into a mindless killing machine, which Lynn promptly dealt with.

However, this experiment provided Lynn with a substantial amount of research material.

The blood essence of the shadow demon was fortuitously integrated with success. Upon witnessing Lauren’s successful transformation, the envious Redeyes eagerly volunteered to undergo the experimental transformation. Redeyes became the first demon under Lynn’s command to successfully undergo demon bloodline transformation—a goblin fly demon.

Lynn referred to it as a ‘goblin shadow demon’.

In reality, it had no remaining connection to its original goblin form. The bloodline of the shadow demon was far superior to the goblin’s, and had wholly eroded Redeyes’ goblin bloodline. The resulting creature was a shadow demon standing only half a meter tall.

Perhaps due to the goblin’s originally modest height, Redeyes’ stature seemed even more diminutive. Fortunately, the shadow demon had the ability to create illusions or to coalesce shadow elements on its body’s surface, making itself appear taller and more imposing.

On ordinary days, as Redeyes walked through the laboratory, it maintained a constant illusion of shadow elements, making its half-meter stature appear as if it were a full two meters tall. This satisfied its vanity to no end.

Through subsequent experiments, Lynn discovered that Redeyes had inherited almost all the magic abilities of the original shadow demon, including immunity to purely physical attacks that did not contain energy. Additionally, it mastered various shadow magics and steadily advanced to the third-level during this period.

The shadow demon’s bloodline allowed Redeyes to break through to the third-level quickly by devouring a substantial amount of demon flesh and blood. However, once reaching the third-level, progress slowed considerably. For demons, breaking through the levels up to the third-level was relatively easy, but beyond that, the difficulty of advancing from level to level increased significantly.

Similarly, the four-armed brute force demon could rapidly grow by consuming large quantities of flesh and blood, particularly demon flesh. Lynn had not imposed restrictions in this regard. The four-armed brute force demon was so moved to tears. It had never experienced such happiness in its life; since its size had increased, it had almost never felt full.

Yet, breaking through from the fifth-level to the sixth-level was not something that could be achieved quickly. It required a certain amount of time for it to consolidate.

Demons digested flesh and blood essence much faster than other beings. Unlike other creatures, demons did not use a digestive system to process their sustenance. Instead, every cell in their body absorbed the essence. Even pieces of meat placed directly on their surface were slowly absorbed. This peculiar absorption capability contributed to the demon’s formidable healing abilities.

Fortunately, with the revenue from weapon sales and the ongoing sales of the Meditation Treasures, Lynn, who was now quite well-off, could afford to cultivate two demons so generously.
