Chapter 1553 Demon King Seed Rank Up!
-----
As I laughed at Gluttony's new "tiny" form, I took a look at the system notifications, there were more things popping up as I laughed.
[Congratulations! You have successfully Ranked Up your [Demong King Seed]: [Primordial Sin Of Gluttony: Rank 0 (Awakened Rank)] into Rank 1 (Temper Rank)!]
[The density and power of your Soul have drastically increased. Your Soul Ether Stat has increased from S+ to S++!]
[You have become a [Temper Rank] Demon King, Tempers represent the lowest of demons, often summoned by human emotions and desires.]
[To rise your Rank in the demonic hierarchy, collect more Demonic Energy and cultivate your Demon King Seed. The next stage will finally give you proper benefits.]
[The [Demonic Physique (SSS)] Demonic Ability has further evolved after the Demon King Seed Rank Up.]
[The Tier of your Current Demon King Seed will now be reflected in your Demonic Physique Demonic Ability.]
-----
[Demonic Physique: Rank 1 Temper (SSS)]
A Demonic Ability created after the absorption of large quantities of Demonic Energy into the body. It can grow stronger past basic Ability Ranks as the Demon King Seed advances.
Grants the ability for non-demons to gain a Demonic Physique, allowing for the flow of Demonic Energy without causing as much damage or destruction into the body.
The Body can be constantly reinforced through the usage of Demonic Energy, and the risks of the body being destroyed or damaged decrease exponentially.
Boosts Flow of Demonic Energy through the Physique by 1050%
Resistance against Demonic Energy Corrosion and Demonic Attribute Damage increases by +50%
Decreases Damage Taken from Demonic Energy flowing inside the Physique by -85%
Enhances the Proficiency on using Demonic Energy through the Physique to unleash physical techniques or attacks by +730%
Increases the Power and Effects of Techniques, Abilities, Magic, and Skills that use Demonic Energy by +530%
When fighting Demon-type foes, your Demonic Physique can absorb 15% of the Damage inflicted from Demonic Energy-fueled abilities or magic as Demonic Energy up to a certain point.
You can now shape Demonic Energy into different forms through [Demonic Energy Aura], Damage Dealt using this Aura increases by +100%, and you can drain 10% of the damage dealt as Health and Mana. (New Ability!)
The user can further Refine their own Physique through this Ability, cultivating a True Demon's Physique, unlocking new Abilities.

[All Attributes of the [Demonic Physique: Rank 1 Temper (SSS)] Demonic Ability can continue growing up to the limits of your Rank. Until then, you won't be able to Rank Up your Demon King Seed.]
"I see, looks like I need to continue tempering my body and practicing with Demonic Energy if I want to get to Rank 2 of my Demon King Seed…" I nodded. "So how many Ranks are out there?"
[The Synapsis is slowly creating that information as you grow stronger.]
[So I can't say for sure! But there is at least five more Ranks, I believe.]
"Interesting… Alright." I smiled. "We still got around three more months to go, so I'll call it quits now and rest. I am exhausted."
I stretched my humanoid body and then walked back to the ice castle, where I found the rest of my family. Benladann, Miranda, Benladra, and Kate were busy in the backyard, the huge farm we've built together was growing even larger and more beautiful as we took care of it.
"Papa's here!" Benladra said, pointing at me. "Hello papa!"
"Hello there." I smiled.
"You look stronger." Benladann said. "Did you manage to…?"
"Yeah, it's done." I nodded. "It was good that I prepared enough for that. Gluttony is now under my control for now. Though it will feel like a pain to fight him every time I Rank Up."
"You have to fight him every time you Rank Up?!" Miranda asked. "Wow, that's a bit harsh, don't you think?"
"It sure is, but what can I do?" I shrugged. "Right? You love fighting."
"Shut up! Go die in a ditch you damn fucking lizard! I'm going to eat you, did you hear me?! I'll fucking bite you to shreds! I'll-"
"Enough, have some manners in front of the children." I sighed, as I quickly sealed me back inside my Soul. "Sorry about that, he's a savage. I'll slowly shape him into someone that can at least hold a conversation for longer than ten seconds."
"I think what you just did is amazing enough though." Miranda said. "I have little knowledge about those Demonic Sins or whatever, but that you can dominate him like that is incredible."
"Well done! But it feels like you're still trying to conquer this power…" Benladann said.
"Yeah, I still feel a lot of pain, and my body slowly melts when I control it… But with my regeneration abilities, I can more or less handle the weight of it a bit better." I sighed. "Now, what are you all doing?"
"We've been taking a break from training and relaxing to do some farming!" Benladann said.
"Yeah! But Miranda is doing little!" Benladra said. "She's too fat."
"I-I am not fat! I am expecting your little sibling here, Benladra!" Miranda sighed, she looked visually tired, but was still holding a shovel. "We wanted to plant some new divine plants we've been creating."
"Chaos ones?" I wondered.
"Something like that, but they don't infect with miasma." Benladann showed them to me, they looked like blueberries, but when I took one of the fruits and ate it, I felt like I was eating miasma itself. I was still able to swallow it an digest it, but I felt quite sickly afterwards.
"Ugh… Yeah they're alright I guess…" I nodded. "Will this help us get chaos resistance?"
"That's the plan!" Miranda said.
"I ate a few already, they're yucky." Kate commented. "Oh, mama!" She flew instantly to the System's projection. "Wanna help?"
"I can't do anything physical, but I can cheer for you, yes." The System smiled gently at Kate. "Let's plant more of these berries then! They're perfect for everyone to slowly get some Chaos Resistance as well. Maybe if you eat enough you could unlock a new Divine Ability, Drake."
"Oh? Alright, let's get to plant them!"
Like that, we spent the rest of the day relaxing and planting all sorts of plants.
