Before going into the ‘Blue Devildom Forest’, Ian stopped by at the auction house for a moment.

It was because there was a necessary item that he needed.

[You have paid 7.55 million.]

[You have acquired the item ‘Devil’s Mask’.]

The Devil’s Mask was a miscellaneous item that many low-level Asmodians searched for.

It could be worn like a helmet, and when worn, it would increase the rate of one’s devil energy.

In addition, there was no limit to wearing it; it was a honey-like item for low-level Asmodians.

That was why that was Kailan’s ‘must-have item’—the Devil’s Mask.

Of course, Ian’s reason for purchasing the Devil’s Mask wasn’t for the same reason.

‘If I can use this, it would be a perfect camouflage.’

There was one additional option that wasn’t given much attention to in the Devil’s Mask.

*It hid the status information of the user who wore it.

(This wouldn’t work if the opponent had a higher level than the user.)

Ian purchased the Devil’s mask item because of that option.

‘I don’t think that walking around the Devildom is a good idea.’

Of course, there was an option in Kailan that could make one’s personal information ‘private’.

However, even if one’s settings were set as private, there were a few parts which couldn’t be covered, such as ‘race’ ‘occupation’ and ‘identity’.

And now, Ian was a celebrity.

In the world of Devildom, if a human race user belonging to the ‘summoner’ class and with the status of a ‘king’ was noticed, even without having to see the identity, everyone would confirm the user as Ian.

‘I want to move in quietly.’

The Asmodian rankers who suffered from the ‘portal overlap’ plan of Ian would surely not let him have a peaceful time.

In the current situation, if Ian’s location got exposed, his plan would definitely fail.

Ian wanted to avoid such troublesome situations as much as he could.

‘Well, let’s go now.’

After all the preparations were done, Ian began to pick up his pace.

It had been a long time since then.

* * *

“Wah, I am envious of him. The Devil’s Mask…”

“Hmm, maybe I should start buying after I get my pay?”

“Yan, that is over 7 million gold. Will you be able to come up with that amount with two to three months of your salary?”

“Kuek, even in the game bing spending…”

Since Ian was moving around with the Devil’s Mask, the novice users were looking at him with envious gazes.

And it was just natural for those users to feel that way.

If one could wear a Devil’s Mask in level 1, one would be able to level up almost 5 to 10 times faster compared to other novice users.

From level 1, almost 10 levels could be gained.

As Ian wore it, the other beginner users weren’t able to take their eyes off him.

Ian didn’t even care.

“Wah, did you say that the fairies habitat is in the Blue Devil Forest?”

Right now, Ian’s only concern was to find the coordinates of the ‘Devil Fairy’.

‘To catch the Devil Fairy with the highest rank that I want, I’ll have to catch at least a thousand of them.’

Because of that, it was important for him to settle down.

After 10 minutes of searching the Blue Devil’s Forest, Ian settled with a good party.

‘Okay, shall we start now?’

Dozens of devil fairies were staring at Ian, who was smiling.

Ian decided to catch them first.

“Capture”

The other users who saw Ian’s actions felt like he was doing something ridiculous.

“What is it with that guy? Doesn’t he know the basics of a summoner?”

“If you try to capture a magical beast, you need to bring down the vitality of it first. No matter how low ranked the beast is, it is easy to do it that way.”

“Oho, maybe the game started recently, so not quite as many knows of the game.”

“Shit.”

The users’ responses were natural.

No matter how low the level of the Devil Fairy was, it would be difficult to capture any summon without any damage.

One might not know it, but if the level of capture was at mastery, it was possible to capture the magical beast without causing any damage.

And a high-level user wouldn’t possibly be in the hunting ground.

But the next moment, the users who were laughing at Ian were flustered at what they saw.

Woong- Woooong-!

The red light that gathered in front of the Devil Fairy swallowed him and then disappeared.

It was clearly an effect that could happen only when the capture was successful.

“What… What was that?”

“OMG! How can that happened?”

The flustered users tried to find the reason for how such a thing could be possible.

“Surely some relic was used!”

“Right. That person must have had some kind of capture relic.”

“Wah, should I log out and then search through the community right away?”

“I get it. Even if such an item exists, it would be so costly that it can’t be bought by us.”

“Huhu.”

The users who tried to draw rational conclusions with their own heads were much more envious of Ian.

“Keuk, I feel like crying today.”

“Yah, should we try to get along with that person?”

“What? Why would that guy get along with us?”

“If we treat him as a hyung, then won’t some kind of congo fall?”

“I don’t know how old that person is, but he is crazy enough to not be called as hyung.”

“Kerk, trying to be naïve? When someone has money, then everyone is my hyung.”

“…”

However, the surprise that Ian gave them didn’t end there.

Ian wasn’t able to capture all the Devil Fairy’s at once, so he started to catch them at random.

Woong-!

Wooong-!

Ian had already captured more than ten of the Devil Fairies, and he did it in less than a minute.

The users who were witnessing it were still in shock.

“What? That guy, he already has got fifteen already.”

“No matter what kind of elves they are, there is a need for 30 leadership to catch more than 10.”

“Is this some kind of artifact power?”

Few more users were trying to place some more statements trying to understand it.

The Devil Fairy captured by Ian was dealing damage amounting to three digits after two digits.

“May… maybe an operator?”

“Yah, whatever! Let’s just go somewhere else. I am not able to hunt because of him.”

“Yeah. That obviously looks like a GM. Why does he have to come to the beginners hunting ground?”

Eventually, after a lot of staggering, they left the hunting ground.

After a while, Ian finally stopped the capturing process.

“Phew, I just got 100 of them. Let’s see one of that and check if it is right?”

Ian’s mouth went up.

* * *

When he first headed to the Blue Devil Forest, Ian expected a rough half-day worth of work.

It wasn’t an easy task to capture a devil fairy with a probably good stat ratio, but he still thought that he could manage to do it—to catch the one thousand fairies he needed in half a day.

However, Ian’s expression was completely off.

When Ian tried to capture his desired number of fairies, it was almost a day later.

And perhaps, at least a thousand of them could have been caught.

“Phew, at last…!”

Ian rubbed his eyes and opened the information window of the fairy that he just caught.

At that moment, the fruits of his constant hunting came.

-Devil Fairy

Level: 5

Classification: Humanoid

Rank: Lesser monster

Personality: ???

No evolution.

Attack: 0

Defense: 16

Agility: 38

Intellect: 52

Vitality: 595

This is a cute devil elf that lives at the start of the ‘Blue Devil Forest’ of the Devildom.

Unlike its cute looks, they enjoy fighting.

They use strong energy balls.

The reason why finding the desired number of Devil Fairies was more difficult for Ian was due to the fact that he insisted on capturing the ones with 0% attack power.

Demon Fairy stats ranged from 0 to 6, with the stats 0 appearing at an extremely low probability.

In addition, he tried to get the ones with an intellect that had a maximum of 52, so it was natural that the probability of getting that kind of Demon Fairy would be lower.

“Intellect MAX and 0 attack. The defense was slightly higher than the minimum…”

Ian calculated the stats one after the other and began to analyze them thoroughly.

“I’m sorry for the little agility, but it is worth it because the intellect has increased.”

Ian’s rate of intellect for the Devil Fairy was close to 50 percent of the whole stat.

In addition, the ratio of agility stats accounted for more than 30 percent, which was an abnormal rate.

‘It is a bit abnormal, but it is going to be the strongest in the case of efficiency.’

Although the defense and the vitality were very low, it could be overcome with huge numbers.

Even if Ian’s magical beast was completed at the current ratio, it was definite that he would have a better tanking ability than Ly.

The total stat of the Giant Behemoth, which was the base of the magical beast, was already twice the size of any legendary summon.

“Now, should I try doing the transmutation…?”

Now it was time to make the ‘legendary’ magical beast that he had always wanted to make.

Ian’s skills were already at a master level and only using either intermediate to advanced magic stones would still create a 100 percent chance of creating a hero level.

“On my way back, I need to get one or more magic stones. I’m going to make a legendary level in just one shot.”

Now Ian’s heart was starting to get faster as he realized that it was just a few days until he met the ‘ultimate magical beast’.

Ian’s pace got faster.

* * *

Two days had passed

More time had gone by.

It was exactly twice as long as Ian had expected.

‘I never thought that it would take such a long time to get the ingredients.’

He prepared the most difficult Giant Behemoth, so he thought that he could finish the rest of the work in a week’s time.

Ian even managed to get the first material too.

That too, luckily, did not fail to raise the rank to legend.

In the process, two advanced magic stones had to be used, but that was an acceptable investment.

Since the Devil Fairy had to go in as a material and not the base, the finished legendary grade was a completely different magical beast.

What kind of material would Ian take?

There were more than ten different ingredients, but Ian was suffering with two things.

The first one being, ‘The beast ability stones’.

The thing that Ian wanted to save for last was the beast ability stone of the legendary beast ‘Tarverus’.

Ian wanted to include the turning time ability among the unique abilities of the Tarverus in the magical beast transmutation.

-Dark Hourglass Ability Stone

Classification: Goods

Rank: Legendary

A beast ability stone that contains the unique ability of the legendary magical beast Tarverus, ‘The Dark Hourglass’.

When this material is placed into the Magical Beast Transmutation, there are high chances to equip the new beast with a unique ability.

The drop rate for the magical beast ability stone was extremely bad.

And the Tarverus wasn’t a creature that could be found that frequently in the Devildom either.

For that very reason, Ian had to go through a lot of suffering to acquire that.

‘Huhu, I couldn’t do the transmutation without this. I would surely regret not using this later.’

The last one that Ian suffered with was…

It wasn’t a material that wasn’t surprisingly related to the magical beast’s ability for completion.

-Creator’s Clay

Classification: Goods

Rank: Hero

The clay that the creator would use to bring things to life.

A rare item with divine power that can be used to change the appearance of a beast when performing the magical beast transmutation.

*Appearance is determined randomly and is irreversible.

*Appearance is practically affected by the ability of the beast that will be used in the transmutation.

*Increases the ability of the magical beast to be completed by -1.5 to +1.5 percent.

Ian went through the whole community and the auction house, and it was the last ingredient after Ian had gone through all the auction houses.

He was only after that item because he really needed it.

‘It is okay to change it; it is just the appearance of the Giant Behemoth!’

Ian located the lab of Cervian, and drew the magical circles in place and placed the other ingredients in it.

Cervian who was next to him started to get excited.

“Oh oh, at last…!”

As a matter of fact, Ian, as an alchemist, had no problem with the transmutation even if Cervian wasn’t in the lab.

But Cervian wanted to witness the historic moment with his own eyes; he decided to do the process with him in the lab.

“Hu!”

Ian calmed himself while taking a huge breath.

The number of materials that went into the transmutation was astronomical, so even if it was Ian, he had no choice.

“Let’s start now!”

Ian extended his hands to the magic circle.

After a while…

Wooong-!

Ian’s magic circle started to give a red glow.
