.Trivia of the day #55: The name Asmodeus in this world means, "Gods Champion" While the name Morningstar means "He who is similar to God" meanwhile the name Ophis means "Lonley Snake"
_______________
Ophis: So let\'s see if I am getting this correct, you want me to torment a group of teenage delinquent kids, both psychologically and physically?
Asmodeus: I feel like you would be more creative for this job than me little sister, you specialized in torture, experimentation, psychological trauma, and out-of-context scenarios, meanwhile my only talent is mass destruction to all things, that disturb the peace, with your "Lord of Wonder" skill it is the perfect thing to cast judgment to these sinners, after all, the ability to manipulate and perceived the "Context of tragedy and mystery" is overpowered in a way you know.
Ophis: Hmmmm... I see your point, although it is not a skill I can use for free, it has a lot of drawbacks, and conditions before its usable, and overall it brings me nothing but Emotional pain in return at the cost of my sanity, however, I do need more blood so this sounds like a fair exchange, unlike me brother your body is special, after doing some research, with the previous sample while crafting the prototype of the elixir, I discover something very unusual and interesting about you, it baffles me, I could only wonder how extraordinary you where before you became a Demon, however, let us leave that topic for another day, as I am not 100% sure about my theory, but yeah... I will take up the job despite the cost just because it is you, brother.
Asmodeus: I will leave that up to you sister, but don\'t kill them, use only the power of tragedy on them, and break them just enough so fear alone can control them, I want to do the honors after all.
Ophis: I see... It\'s like training an animal, with enough fear engraved into its soul, it will move like a puppet and squeal like a dog, alright, give me 21 days to settle the score then, forming tragic events does take some time.
Upon seeing this Asmodeus smiled, because twenty days was all he need to retrieve Excalibur from Ether, and the last day which would be the twenty-first day, he was going to end it all, after he finds Ether that is, so with that said, Asmodeus began to send information about the targets, and their entire biography and file.
With that said and done Ophis said her goodbyes.
Ophis: This is valuable information, don\'t worry I will send you daily pictures of the artwork...I mean the initial progress of the mission.
Asmodeus chuckled ever so slightly at her intentional blunder, although her attempts of humor were dark and twisted for a Demon King it was a very funny joke, so he replied to her by saying.
Asmodeus: I look forward to seeing the piece of art when it\'s finished, for now, take this as a down payment, for the job.
And like that tear off one of his fingers so nonchalantly, before instantly growing it back as if it was nothing, and pushing it through the screen that allows him to send objects and weapons to his siblings.
Ophis: Motivation receive, thank you very much, the raw material of this caliber will come in handy for future endeavors.
Asmodeus: Well take care Ophis.
Ophis: Later.
And with the end of their short and sweet illegal business transaction, Asmodeus close the group chat function in the Admin tab, as he asks Lilith.
\'So since I now have some free time, can you please explain to me how I can edit my stats to make them look presentable?\'
Of course, Lilith answers Asmodeus right as she said.
『Go into your "Settings tab" Scroll down till you reach the "System display Icon" and click on it, there you will see "Edit", by pressing that you will be able to customize the System display however you please, it also comes with something called "Detail Progression Mode" or DPM for short』
Upon hearing this Asmodeus began to follow Lilith\'s order and to his surprise, the edit functions had a limitless amount of fonts, symbols, and even layouts he could use.
While the DPM was helpful, so far Asmodeus\'s lost track of just how powerful he had truly become, while DPM made his new status board extremely detailed, but right to the point, and by looking at his status he was amazed.
So much so, he said.
\'This is just overkill, honestly, since I have recently been born I am far from the strongest, but this still feels like overkill, my overall status page, is just insane, however, what I am glad for is the fact that Mystics gives my a lot of "EXP" unlike the others races, and since I have been doing nothing but killing Mystics for five days straight, I manage to level up by three.\'
\'This now leaves me with a total of 15 [SP], hmm... Well let\'s put all of this into luck\'
And like that Asmodeus began to dump all of his [SP] into his Luck stats however there was a problem that made him pause as he said to himself.
\'Wait am I seeing things, didn\'t I originally have [+5] in Luck why is it still in [+3], no is something wrong here, hey Lilith what happen to my [+5] luck?\'
However, to Asmodeus\'s surprise, Lilith answered him as such.
『You are seeing things, you never had [+5] luck』
\'Haaaa... Are you sure, I could swear I had up my luck to [+5]?\'
『You are just seeing things』
\'...\'
『...』
\'Sigh... Whatever, I could have sworn that I had [+5] luck, well anyways by doing this I should have [+18] luck now.\'
And right after Asmodeus dumped all of his remaining [SP] into luck, he didn\'t feel any different by was sure the result will show sooner or later, but one thing bothered him greatly, and that was the luck stat issue, but seeing that Lilith deny that he ever did it, he won\'t question it as he more important things to do.
However, after fixing up his status page, he took one more look at it and said as followed.

"Vweeeery gwwooOOD! indeed, this is pleasing to the eye."
However, Asmodeus said this out loud with a menacing grin, even fumbling the words all over the place with excitement.
But at that same time, his grin increased as he began to smell something with his enhanced smell, as he says to himself.
** Sniff!, Sniff!**
** Sniff? Sniff! **
"This smell, could it be, hahaha. So my luck stats are finally doing their thing, without a doubt I smell humans."
Yes based on the İntihar memories, Asmodeus can now smell humans from miles away, well to be precise anything within a five miles radius.
"Ohh... And it\'s not a single human either, based on the potency, I would say about 37 of them all come from the south, yes... by the speed there are going, they should reach the dirt road I just left within two hours."
"Perfect, finally I can get myself a vessel to infiltrate the Academy."
So right after, Asmodeus flee toward the place where the humans will pass by, and when they do that\'s when he will make his moves, and attack with full force.
-- 3 hours later --
High above the giant trees, Asmodeus was using the camouflage skill he took from the Titanoboa, making him invisible to the naked eyes as he was the same color as the tree and leaves.
It\'s been an hour since he met up with the humans and has been stalking them ever since, and after observing them, he got a keen insight into how powerful these humans truly were, and to be honest, none of them are near the level Ekhidnanta, probably the only human he would need prep time for.
However, as he gaze down at them, he said to himself.
"This group is a disappointment, I can just one-shot them from here, and they wouldn\'t even know how they die, well what was I expecting, either way, they would make great test subjects."
"Hmmm... Well, they are not worth my time, however, this would be a great time to test out the Illusion skill of the Lumen."
