Capítulo 5: Training (3)
Several months later, I was still training in the [Devil Outer Body Tempering Method]. After finishing the first part of the [Devil Outer Body Tempering Method], which was tempering my bones with the Demonic Energy usage, I was currently undergoing the second part of the method, which was doing the same thing with my muscles.
Though it was less painful, as I increased my pain resistance tremendously, from tempering my bones, it was far slower. I needed to be especially careful not to tear apart my muscles and not cause myself some injuries.
But the results were good, very good. My body became more flexible, stronger, and faster. With each passing day to the tempering process, I could feel how much stronger I have become. My physique also changed as my muscles started compressing, and I now looked more muscular, not like some bodybuilder, but rather some athlete.
When I looked at the mirror, I couldn't stop marveling at my upgraded form or something like that.
"Architect, scan me."
I commended as soon transparent window appeared before my eyes with precise information about my strength and how stronger I have gotten in the past six months.

Currently, my Physical state was probably the best I could achieve with my current training. [Devil Outer Body Tempering Method] was essentially complete. The rest of the physical stats would hit 50 passively, without some special training, and then I only need to acclimatize myself to my new strength.
'Now what was left on my list-to-do in the foreseeable future.' I thought as I was looking at my progress. Now that my body has attained the high-end of the Middle-Class in all parameters, I would focus on mastering magic.
Reaching High-Class in body tempering is hard without excessive training, and truth to be told, I don't have time or what I have found out lately, I don't have a talent for it.
For example, if I have training in the same way as Sairaorg in canon, it would take me more than 50 years to reach the Middle-Class. I have also tried learning Touki, just from curiosity, as I found some instruction manuals on it in my library, but alas, I had no talent for Touki.
My innate talent lies in two things, Clan Trait and Magic. I had an extremely high talent for Dark Light manipulation, and lately, I was also attempting to awaken Gremory Clan Trait, Devour.
Apparently, Devour was very rare to have even among Gremory Family, as only one person had it, and it was first Gremory, my grandfather. Unfortunately, my father didn't awake the Clan Trait, and I, too, didn't have it awakened. What was fortunate was that Architect was making a method how to awaken it, so it only wanted time.
From my grandfather's diary, Devour was basically a straightforward Clan Trait. It was used to devour the Demonic Energy or Magical Power of the killed person and increase your own strength. The downside was that it is effective only against someone with the same energy quality as your own, meaning, I, as High-Class Devil, can Devour the Demonic Energy of Magical Power of only another High-Class being.
If I attempted to devour higher quality energy, I could cripple myself or, worse, kill myself. And If I devoured energy of lesser quality, it would do nothing, just refill lost magical power, but it cannot increase my reserves.
My grandfather was a strong Devil at Satan-Class of lower end thanks to the Devour. Still, after breaking through and reaching Satan-Class, he couldn't progress anymore, as he needed to absorb more beings of the same level. Still, like those on that level, the problem with that was usually holed up in their respective territories. So my genius grandpa, in his greed for power, decided to hunt for some monsters on Satan-Class to devour their energy. Unfortunately for him, though he managed to defeat that monster, apparently it called helpers, they surrounded him and tore him apart.
It is a sad story but with a great lesson. Control your greed.
So I learned my lesson from this story and decided to wait till the Great War patiently. I was sure I would awaken Devour Clan Trait before the Great War, and in the Great War, I could Devour energies of countless Fallen, Angels and maybe... some Devils.
I have decided to secretly kill some strong descendants of Lucifer, Leviathan, Beelzebub, Asmodeus, and other Six Houses of Lucifer. Sooner or later, they would all become my enemies and threats to my family and me. So, I would be killed several flies with one stone.
"Hmm... I am a bit eager to test my strength on the field. There should be some monsters around... maybe some from other factions that are wandering the Underworld. Or I can just engage in a skirmish with Fallen... not a good idea. It might expose my Dark Light Clan Trait, as it makes me partially immune to Holy Light. Until I am at least Pinnacle of Ultimate-Class, I won't reveal it."
I muttered as I thought about where I could test my combat ability. What I needed right now was life and death combat to gain more experience. While I had power, I didn't have almost any battle experience.
Even some random Middle-Class entity with the proper strategy would defeat me If I was not careful. Because of that, I needed practice.
"So, only monsters it is then... I heard that around a hundred kilometers from Fuerig, there should be several Golbin Tribes that were causing a stir. Goblins, while generally weak, being only of Low-Class while some of Middle-Class are depending on their number... hmmm... they would be perfect training dummies."
