Chapter 204: Ch 204: Reason for the Demon's Abnormalities
After capturing the demon god, Rein immediately went to a location that he had secretly created. It was far away from any big cities and that area also did not have any strong demons or beasts living there. This area had very little spiritual energy so for a cultivator, this was not a good location. The same was true for powerful demons or beasts.
But there was a reason why Rein had chosen this area. That reason was the presence of nonstop rain in this area. This was one of the rare areas of the world where Rein was able to utilise his strongest combat form for an infinite amount of time, so for him this was the safest place in this world.
After that Rein woke the fainted demon god up. As soon as it came back to its senses, it started to struggle. But soon the demon god found out that it had lost all its strength. Before waking the demon god, Rein had used a powerful sealing technique on him. As Rein had used this technique when he was in his strongest form, this was an extremely powerful seal.
After understanding that struggling was useless, the demon god immediately calmed down. Then it spoke up with a guttural voice -
"I never thought that the human side would have someone as strong as you."
Rein replied back -
"The humans also had a hard time believing that demons had suddenly grown this strong. The world is a big place even for powerhouses, so it is not that surprising."
Hearing that the demon god snorted and closed its eyes. This attitude showed that he was done talking and was not going to answer anything. This type of attitude was something that Rein had expected so he was not surprised at all.
How much time Suzu needed to extract the memories depended on many factors. The length of time her target had been alive was one such factor and his mental fortitude was another. Actually three days was a very short amount of time as Suzu was trying to extract all of this man's memories, so Rein was very surprised.
Normally Suzu needed more than a week to even extract the memories of a regular person whose willpower was on the lower side. And this demon god did not look to be weak willed. So after meeting Suzu, this was the first question that Rein asked her.
Suzu then started to explain to Rein all the things that she had learnt from the memories of this demon god. It turned out that the age of his demon god was very little and that was the reason why Suzu was able to extract all his memories in such a short amount of time.
What surprised Rein more was the fact this demon was actually just a little bit older than him. This much growth in such a short amount of time was almost impossible for anyone other than Rein. Then as Suzu told him more and more about the demons, Rein started to figure out the reason for this whole incident.
Almost two decades ago, when Rein just appeared in the world, the demons started to experience insane growth. Even this demon god was just a random low ranking demon before that time and in less than twenty years, it had actually turned into a demon god.
But demons themselves were a very ferocious race and were always fighting amongst each other. That was the reason why in the early years, no demon gods appeared.
Just three years ago, one of the demons was able to defeat everyone stopping him and became a demon god. Then he suddenly became lucky and found a spatial rift that was like a safe haven for the demon race. There he implemented a system of continuous battles to allow more and more demons to quickly become stronger.
Reaching the power level of a demon god was still rare, but many demons were at least able to break their bloodline shackles. And that was the reason behind the demon's unnatural growth that started just when Rein appeared in this world.
