"Master, my strength has really increased."
Esdeath was extremely familiar with her own power.
Even after becoming a demon.
She still had a certain understanding.
And now...
Not only was her physique getting stronger.
Even the magic power flowing within her body had increased significantly.
At this moment, she deeply understood her master's power.
"Esdeath, if you want to improve faster, you must not waste it."
"Oh my, my master is really naughty..."
Esdeath gave Linde a sidelong glance, her eyes like silk.
Then she dutifully began to clean up, collecting all the miraculous elixirs.
Gulp!
As she swallowed, her level, which was already approaching a critical point, finally broke through.
In the following days.
To become stronger, Esdeath could be said to have forgotten to eat and sleep.
Finally, she even neglected military affairs, always serving by Linde's side.

"How come I feel like the effect on my Retainer/Subordinate is getting better and better?"
Compared to Miyano Shiho and the others, Esdeath's strength increased significantly faster.
After all, she is now a High-Class Devil.
The difficulty of leveling up by one.
Is probably higher than an Intermediate Demon leveling up ten times.
And now...
How many days has it been?
She has already leveled up twice.
"Could it be because my strength has broken through?"
Linde muttered to himself, feeling a bit depressed.
Because compared to his own Retainer/Subordinate...
His own level increase was a bit slower.
However...
Thinking that he didn't just have one Retainer/Subordinate.
His mind instantly became balanced.
"If that's the case, then I have to work even harder."
Linde's eyes flickered, and he flipped her over.
Feeling Linde's movements, a hint of panic flashed in Esdeath's eyes.
"No, no, I can't eat any more."
Linde reached out and held her down, giving her no chance to escape.
"No, who said they would stop at nothing to become stronger?"
Just at this moment.
The earth-shattering neigh of warhorses had already resounded.
"The barbarians are attacking?"
Hearing the sound, Esdeath felt as if she had been granted a great pardon.
"Alright, let's get down to business then."
"Yes, Master."
Esdeath stretched, quickly got dressed, and fled the tent.
Watching Esdeath's retreating figure, Linde also extended his senses.
"This is the army of the foreign tribes; their strength is decent enough."
After sensing them, Linde stroked his chin and began to ponder.
The strength of these people,
while not up to his standards,
all far surpassed ordinary humans.
"Logically speaking, they should be able to provide me with some experience."
Linde put on his clothes, his figure already floating upwards...
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The two armies faced each other, and although the war hadn't officially begun, the killing intent already soared to the sky.
War is cruel for everyone.
At this time, anyone who dared to step in would undoubtedly be seeking their own death.
However,
for Linde, it was like returning home.
His figure floated over the heads of countless Imperial soldiers, yet everyone ignored him.
Are you kidding?
General Esdeath's man.
Who would be crazy enough to have an opinion?
Esdeath, riding on her warhorse, saw Linde's arrival and was slightly puzzled.
"What, you don't welcome my arrival?"
"No, I just thought Master wasn't interested in a war of this scale."
Esdeath dismounted, ready to offer her warhorse to Linde.
"No need."
Linde waved his hand, "I just came to stomp on a bunch of ants."
As he spoke, Linde had already landed on the ground and walked towards the foreign tribe's army.
Seeing this!
Esdeath waved her hand, signaling the entire army to hold their positions.
As a Retainer/Subordinate,
she would carry out all of her Master's commands without hesitation.
On the other side,
in front of the foreign army.
"What does the Imperial army mean by this?"
The speaker was a valiant-looking man in full armor.
Prince Numa Seka, the Northern Brave.
He was the stabilizing force of the foreign tribes.
It was because of his existence that the northern foreign tribes dared to invade the Imperial territory.
"What, does the Empire have no one left, that they send you alone to your death?"
Numa spurred his horse and came before Linde.
As the foreign tribes' greatest warrior,
he dared to face any enemy alone.
This was his confidence.
"I am not from the Empire."
Linde gently shook his head.
"Hmm?"
Numa frowned, not quite hearing him, and subconsciously asked, "What did you say?"
"Nothing, I just came for a little snack."
Linde's eyes were incredibly calm and indifferent.
"What are you talking about?"
A fierce glint flashed in Numa's eyes, "Forget it, no matter who you are."
"As long as you appear here, you are my enemy. Die..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Linde had already acted.
Under everyone's gaze, Linde's index and middle fingers were pressed together, and he pointed them from afar.
"Absolute Zero."
The moment the words fell,
an extremely cold aura instantly spread, freezing Numa's body solid in a block of ice.
Then!
The chilling cold continued to spread.
Starting from Linde, the battlefield ahead became terrifying, seemingly filled with a silent, dead aura.
For a moment,
hundreds of thousands of foreign tribal soldiers all showed expressions of terror.
Cold!
Extreme cold.
It felt like it wasn't just the body,
but even the soul that was about to freeze.
They didn't even have time to make any movements.
In just an instant,
everyone's bodies had all turned into ice sculptures.
At this moment,
the entire battlefield was silent.
The brains of countless Imperial soldiers had completely crashed.
They seemed to be frozen in place, just like the foreign tribal army.
Esdeath's pupils also contracted, and she realized even more deeply the power of her skill.
Absolute Zero in Linde's hands,
was no longer just physically cold; it had even touched the realm of the soul.
In fact,
the term 'low temperature' was no longer sufficient to describe this skill.
This was a thoroughly destructive skill that froze all things.
Those soldiers had already died even before they were frozen.

Text messages constantly appeared before his eyes, and Linde felt his strength rapidly increasing.

Linde looked at the panel and nodded with satisfaction.
