Chapter 161: From Pits of Hell
If not for Ronin being present there, maybe the old grandmaster blacksmith would\'ve been killed.
And despite Albestros asking them to be spared, Ronin finished them off later anyway. Because just like Kahn, he wasn\'t the type to leave behind enemies or something that would cause unnecessary trouble for them later.
So Kahn was now clear on how only his own subordinates were the most efficient allies. Plus, now that he had broken through to Semi-Saint Rank, the range of the Hive Mind skill had also risen to 10 kilometers and he could be in direct touch with all the subordinates in that radius.
Although it wasn\'t that far.. It was still a form of progress.
[Ronin.]
Ronin who was acting as security throughout the night appeared out of a shadow from a corner of the room.
"Take it out." spoke Kahn and then he too took out a dead body from his space ring. Ronin on the other hand took out Ranga, the botir warrior\'s cut-down body parts.
The former body belonged to the Semi-Saint Rank Demonkin clan head of the Volstov clan, Dormammu Volstov. This was the person who had given Kahn the Sword Lord ability and Sword Aura blades skill.
The two bodies were big and tall. Their build was muscular and their fighting skills were top-notch without a doubt. Although Ronin easily took out Ranga, by no means was this warrior weaker than him. Just that majority of the amazing skills that Ronin had directly came from Kahn\'s merged skills. And now he too could fight just like Kahn in his peak when it came to Assassin skills or fight in a group battle.
"Absorb!" spoke Kahn and started absorbing the skills from the dead botir. But in return.. He only received subpar skills. The one truly efficient was the exoskeleton skill but Kahn who already had Somir Scales and Drake Scales found them completely useless for him.
But there was a subordinate who could make the best use of their fighting abilities & skills related to their species.
"Come out." ordered Kahn and a 4 meter tall and muscular subordinate jumped out of his body.
It was one of the Six Generals who had the least time to shine so far despite having so many offensive and attack buff skills.
Jugram, the Berserker.
"Your orders, my master." spoke Jugram. His voice was very mature. Although his entire body was covered in knight-like armor, he was the one with the lowest levels and trashiest gear. At best, he had a Rare Rank giantsword on him. He wasn\'t even a Lord Rank subordinate yet.
"It\'s time for you to level up." spoke Kahn.
Jugram nodded in response. He could use dual swords, axes and giantswords. But Kahn never had a proper opportunity for upgrading this general ever since he died at the hands of the Magma Drake dungeon boss. After Jugram was resurrected, he didn\'t get a chance to do it because there were eyes on him all the time. But now, he was finally going to raise this general in ranks.
"Merge." commanded Kahn and used 1000 A Rank cores for the synthesis process that would aid Jugram to level up while he is merging.
After forty minutes, he was finished with the merging procedure and now an 8 meter tall body stood in the middle of the room.
After the upgrade, Jugram\'s appearance turned to a Demonic creature with two glowing red horns coming out from the two sides of his head. And his entire body was covered in black and red exoskeleton armor with multiple pointy bones protruding from his forearms, shoulders, knees. There was also a red glow coming out of his chest as if a fire was burning in the center.
Jugram\'s new form looked like a demon who arose from the pits of hell. Just with his presence alone, the temperature of the room had risen and Jugram leaked a pure red aura that was so intense that even the water nearby would start boiling.
Since Kahn had thermal body ability, he didn\'t feel a difference but Ronin who stood beside him had already started sweating just in a matter of 30 seconds.
The floor itself barely managed to hold off Jugram\'s weight without cracking.
Kahn noticed that Jugram now inherited physical traits of both the Demonkin & the Botir had evolved to a new different species since he too was a Variant.
To him, it felt like Doomsday & Surtur morphed together and became Jugram.

"System, show me his stats and abilities." spoke Kahn.

The system informed him about the new upgrades.
Kahn, who barely recovered from Armin unlocking a Legendary class recently was left shocked again.
Somehow, this synthesis had helped Jugram unlock a truly unique class.
[The Semi-Saint Demonkin must have possessed a rare True Demon bloodline to a small extent and triggered this change during the merging process. The same way Omega unlocked the Godbeast Fenrir bloodline months ago.] he thought.
All of Jugram\'s abilities made him a one-man army who could take out thousands of enemies by himself. All he had to do was kill people and survive till the number of dead bodies piled up.
Forget being Kahn\'s subordinate.. The Chaos Lord skill alone made Jugram a Dungeon Boss himself.
To this new revelation, Kahn asked himself with eyes full of disbelief..
"Did I just create a Demon Lord?"
