Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

The power of the Soulborn Eye is great, but it really takes a toll on the body.

After getting back to his room, Timothy had to pop several Energizing Herbs just to recover from the nosebleeds that had left him feeling drained.

Holy Maiden Aeliana had been whisked away by the goddess to continue tidying up the sleeping quarters. The scene now was probably even more chaotic than before.

For a moment, Timothy even started to doubt.

This Holy Maiden Aeliana, who had been his closest confidante and wife for hundreds of years—could it be that she wasn't really after his body, but after his wife's position instead?

After all, you can guard against many things, but it's hardest to guard against your best friend.

Looks like I'll have to be more careful from now on.

[Ding, host has successfully caused the Bone Sovereign to self-destruct, and the sacred land has submitted. You have also forged a deep connection with the princess of the Netherworld of Reincarnation with a single sword strike. System reward: a deluxe gift package.]

After waiting for so long, the system finally released the reward.

Timothy didn't hesitate to open the deluxe gift package.

[Skill point balance has reached 150 skill points]

[Choose +1 Epic-level magical artifact]

[Receive Enlightenment Body panel]

[Activate Soulborn Eye ability—Vital Points]

Timothy carefully examined the system's rewards.

Aside from the skill points, which were already overflowing...

"Enlightenment Body panel?"

As Timothy pondered, a pale golden panel suddenly appeared before his eyes.

The strength of the Enlightenment Body lies in its ability to comprehend everything, turning any object into a target for enlightenment.

However, the Enlightenment Body also has a significant flaw.

To comprehend something, not only do you need great insight, but you also need the right opportunity, chance, and luck.

Not everything can be comprehended, and not everything comprehended is useful.

Just like when Nolan comprehended the Path of Narcissism, it was utterly useless except for making him more narcissistic...

Comprehending such paths is not only time-consuming and exhausting, but the results can often be more harmful than beneficial.

However, this panel is practically a godsend for the Enlightenment Body.

The panel lists the abilities that can be awakened by comprehending various objects, and even marks the success rates, offering a service that's incredibly thoughtful and precise!

Timothy activated the panel function and cast his gaze onto the table.

Instantly, the panel analyzed the data.

[Target: Firewood]

[Contained spiritual energy: None]

[Potential ability to comprehend: Split the Mountain with One Axe]

[Method of comprehension: Keep chopping with an axe until comprehension is achieved]

[Success rate: 2%]

"The success rate seems a bit low."

Timothy shook his head, deciding not to pursue such a costly ability.

Just as he stepped out of his room, a figure suddenly came running towards him.

"Brother Timothy, why were you gone for so long again?

I missed you so much. When I heard that Brother Timothy had ventured into the perilous Bone Path in the sacred land, I was worried sick.

Hehe, but I'm glad Brother Timothy has returned safely.

Since that's the case..."

The one running up to Timothy was Yvenna.

At this moment, her beautiful eyes were filled with emotion, as if autumn waters were surging in them, and her heart was bursting with excitement.

She shyly and excitedly lifted her head, her eyes sparkling as she gazed intently at Timothy. "Brother Timothy, I know how you feel. That punch you gave me last time felt so good, I've been reliving it ever since. I even hesitate to wash the spot where you hit me when I take a bath. So... Don't be shy this time, Brother Timothy, let's kiss.

I'm willing to give myself to you, even if it means sacrificing the modesty expected of a girl!"

"Muah, muah, muah."

Yvenna puckered up and lunged forward again.

[Target: Sky Sanctuary disciple Yvenna]

[Cultivation level: Energy Foundation Peak]

[Potential ability to comprehend: Crush Infatuation Fist (a punch that can end the infatuation)]

[Method of comprehension: Throw a punch]

[Success rate: 99%]

Facing Yvenna, who was about to cling to him, Timothy didn't hesitate and threw a punch.

"Bang!"

With one punch, Yvenna was gently sent flying into the air.

[System update: Comprehension failed]

"A 99% chance and it still fails?"

Timothy was puzzled.

"Brother Timothy, although it's not as good as a kiss, your punch is so gentle!"

At the same time, Yvenna came running back again.

"Whoosh, bang!"

[System update: Comprehension failed]

"Bang!"

[System update: Comprehension failed]

"Brother Timothy, hehe, here I come again!"

...

However, after several punches, Timothy still couldn't comprehend the "Crush Infatuation Fist."

"Are you sure about the 99% chance?"

Timothy was doubtful.

[Ding, normally, the chance of comprehending this punch is indeed very high. However, Yvenna's level of infatuation with the host is so deep that it completely negates any impact you might have, greatly reducing the likelihood of successful comprehension.]

Timothy: "…"

Just a few days ago, he was dominating the battlefield, even chasing down and slaying Holy Emperor-level powerhouses alone, but now he found himself completely unable to handle Yvenna.

Who would have thought that this seemingly harmless little junior sister was actually his nemesis!

"Brother Timothy, here I come again, your punches feel so good, muah muah muah~"

"Noggin Knocker Fist!"

Finally, Timothy couldn't take it anymore.

With one punch, Yvenna was sent flying in a beautiful arc across the sky.

"Brother Timothy, I'll come back to find you! Hehe, Brother Timothy is so gentle~ This punch, it feels so good~"

Even as she flew through the air, Yvenna's excited voice about her infatuation still reached him.

"This junior sister is nice, but a bit silly."

Timothy sighed helplessly and continued to look around.

[Object: Mystic Vine]

[Spiritual energy: Relatively Pure]

[Potential ability to comprehend: The Path of Artistry]

[Method of comprehension: Meditate for 180 days, observing beauty and freshness.]

[Success rate: 70%]

[Object: Female Disciple's Brassiere]

[Spiritual energy: A Trace]

[Potential ability to comprehend: The Path of Perversion]

[Method of comprehension: CENSORED]

[Success rate: 90%]

"Holy smokes, what's this!"

Noticing the brassiere hanging out to dry from the neighboring courtyard, Timothy quickly averted his gaze.

If he accidentally comprehended that, he'd be socially dead on the spot!

Who knew the Enlightenment Body, though sounding great, was constantly fraught with danger...

"I heard that the Themyscira Sect is planning to host a Couples Sweetness Festival soon, how about it, do you guys want to go?"

"Themyscira Sect? But I thought the Themyscira Sect, heavily influenced by Goddess Sylvia, was firmly against forming romantic relationships with men?"

"I'd like to go, but I don't have a male partner. Am I supposed to go there just to watch others flaunt their love?"

"Stop it, I'm already feeling sour, boo hoo."

[Ding, system notification. Participating in the Couples Sweetness Festival with the goddess might give you a chance to comprehend a mysterious path of enlightenment.]

Just then, the system notification sounded.
