The Birth of the Black Death God (Remake)
Ch. 17

In this case, resurrecting a monster whose level was several levels above it would trigger failure, and end up in vain. However, even if it was successfully raised, the level of the summoned monster would decrease according to the level possessed by the summoner.

Those who had jobs as Summoners, or even Necromancers. Usually only summon beings whose levels are below or even equivalent to themselves in order to be easily controlled.

Summoning a more powerful being, it could be an unexpected accident. It could be that the summoned creature will spiral out of control, and eventually rampage, to the point of endangering the caller himself.

The difference with the Necromancer was that, if a Necromancer tried to awaken a creature whose level was above it, it would only be a failure. Continued failure would slowly erode his soul, and make him go crazy.

It ended very badly.

At his level now, Xi was trying to raise a Demon Snake whose level was four levels above him. If it failed, it would drain an awful lot of Mana. And Xi will weaken for a while.

However, Xi here had no intention of raising Demon Snake to its full strength. He even reduced the amount of energy he expended, and deliberately summoned a Demon Snake whose level had been lowered to the equivalent of his.

[The Dead Answering Your Call]

[Demon Snake successfully raised]

[Monster Name: Demon Snake-Darkness Army] Monster Race: Spiritual-Demon Snake. Threat Level: Intermediate. Level 16.

Seeing his partner come back to life, certainly made the two become confused and astonished. "How can the dead come back to life? "Demon Snake wondered.

Even for those monsters, seeing this scene was so scary that they could not even expect it.

Something that goes against the law of death is not simple, it is too mysterious that it can be considered unreal. However, what they saw was the reality, even though it was terrifying, they had to still admit it.

They could see clearly, even though the appearance of the awakened Demon Snake was exactly the same, it was just that his body that was now formed from a collection of Mana combined with a dense darkness.

This is a life form that should not exist in this world.

'The level is indeed lower, but this should be enough to withstand one of them. Don't you?'

Poked out his hand, and pointed at one of the Demon Snake.

"You... Take care of him!" When his orders were given. Demon Snake who had been his subordinate quickly moved and directly attacked the Demon Snake that Xi pointed at.

Although his level is four levels adrift of his opponent. The awakened Demon Snake did not feel any fear at all.

Nimbly move, and attack aggressively. In his bite forcefully, his fangs instantly pierced through the thick skin of the Demon Snake scales.

[Demon Snake Exposed to Poison]

'Although his level was lower, but it was enough to hold him back.' stared at the other Demon Snake. 'Now... He's all I have to face. One on one, no problem'

Without further ado, Xi directly attacked Demon Snake who was his opponent with [Flame] magic. Even though he had done it as quickly as possible, without neatness, and without mentioning the spell, the fire magic could still be avoided by the Demon Snake.

Then he moved sideways, attacking Xi by wagging his tail quickly.

HUP!

To avoid it, Xi jumped up. And simultaneously, launched a counterattack using magic again [FireBall]. Even at such a time, which should not be avoided by a monster with a body as large as his, Demon Snake broke his expedition.

"What's? Can he avoid it?!"Astounded.

At the same time, Demon Snake jumped up, and attacked Xi. Intend to devour his round-round directly.

Xi avoided. Restraining him Xi was unsure he could do it.

Seeing the strength of this Demon Snake, dodging attacks was the best option. If not, you'll be crushed by it.

The four-level difference between them was obvious, if it was face to face directly, even that Xi even though the opportunity was small.

'As rumored, Demon Snake is indeed a terrible monster.'

The main problem of Demon Snake was not his attack or his poison that could cripple the opponent. The main problem was, this Demon Snake had hard scales, making it difficult to injure him. Moreover, with its strong defense, it was supported with its monstrous abilities as well.

It's the perfect combination. Between defense and strength.

The rattles took a few steps back, then fired another type of magic. [Magic Missile]. A ball of light made of condensed Mana flew rapidly smashing into the Demon Snake.

The attack really hit him. However, Xi was puzzled as to why the monster had not tried to dodge its attack this time.

From the cluster of smoke, Demon Snake appeared like a flying snake. His mouth was wide open, and it looked as if his two enormous front fangs were ready to tear him apart.

Xi jumped back to dodge, from the attack Xi gathered.

'He deliberately accepted my attack. Intending to deceive me by making me careless by accepting the attack and silent for a moment as if he was injured... Rumors about this cunning and intelligent monster are true. Fortunately, I was not fooled by him, otherwise... There will probably be two holes in my body.'

During this time, Rumors about Demon Snake were often heard. Some say that Demon Snake is cunning, and also intelligent, unlike most monsters in general. They like to get people to lower their guard, deliberately accepting attacks.

Need to admit, that's the truth. This was the strategic play that Demon Snake had always played. Although many people already know it, but not many managed to realize it when in a fight. All of the sights would still be blinded by Demon Snake who seemed to be injured by the attack.

Forcing the adventurers to come closer, and believing that he was injured. After that, he would pounce on her like pouncing on a rabbit.

Other than that Rumor, there were those who said that Demon Snake had a very strong defense. Ordinary weapons would not be able to easily pierce through the scales of the steel-hardened Demon Snake. And again, it was also quite elastic, so Demon Snake could move quickly as he wished.

And it's not a lie, but a reality. [Magic Missile] that Xi used to attack Demon Snake before was indeed low-level magic. It was the most basic Tier one magic, even beginners could use it.

But, what needs to be remembered here is that Xi has improved his quality in the spell. Its Mana density is also high, so it should be able to crush steel. Moreover, with his Job as the Prince of Darkness would increase his magic power by 40%. So that it should be more than enough to destroy the steel even if it was a Tier 1 magic.

But reality is hard. Even after being hit with the [Magic Missile] Demon Snake was completely unharmed. Instead he can attack Xi blindly.

Xi continued to dodge every attack of Demon Snake. One mistake left him in danger.

While dodging, Xi thought about how to defeat this one Demon Snake. In terms of strength and endurance, of course he was not strung.

Demon Snake still continued to chase, and attacked Xi relentlessly. There was nothing Xi could do but avoid it. At the same time, Xi thought about how to defeat this Demon Snake. Since now that he had already appeared before her, there was already nowhere for him to hide.

'Troubled, I underestimated it... And now I'm being cornered by him. It was difficult to attack him because he could move fast, let alone low-level magic was not very effective...?!! But... Every time I use fire magic, somehow this Demon Snake always avoids it. Could it...'

Recalling from the previous incident, while using an explosive arrow. The fire was indeed effective to deal with a snake like his, which clearly Demon Snake was a cold-blooded creature. Not only was it weak against fire, but Demon Snake tracked its prey by sensing the heat sensor. Basically, Demon Snake's eyesight was extremely poor.

In such a vast place, it was extremely difficult to attack Demon Snake. Therefore, Xi led him to a narrow place so that it was easy to attack.

He took her to a place where the trees were large and clap each other. Due to the Demon Snake's large body size and longer length, it was obvious such a place would restrict its movements. So it was difficult for Demon Snake to attack, or even dodge. And to move back is too late.

"This narrow place you can't avoid?[FireBall]" Did not hold back, and there was no reason for him to hold back the power to fight this one monster. Xi immediately fired five fireballs at once as the opening strike.
