Reincarnated as the Demon King's Son

chapter-524
Night time came. Tom's caravan still rolled towards their destination at high speed.
The youngsters were assigned their own room. Tom's truck was very spacious. Not only were there room for maids, there were also a bunch for guests. And each room was like a luxurious hotel room with its own bathroom.
In Helid's words, it was like a moving mansion.
They also had buttons they could press at any time to call the maids should they need late night snacks, massage, or anything else.
The youngsters did not do such things however. Instead, they closed their eyes and meditate. To be a powerful magicians, one had to have a firm control over one's mind. Temptation, doubt, fear, and other emotion could cloud one's judgment.The more powerful a magician, the more they were able to resist these emotions. Eventually, they could be bound by no emotion at all. They could still feel, but it would never cloud their judgment.
Warrior would also grew firm control over their mind as they got stronger, but it could not be compared to become a magician.
Magician needed to think all the time. Because of their power, they completely saw the world in a different light. In their eyes, every shape, form, law, and reality could be changed.
Anything could change in this world.
This kind of mindset forced their mind to be focused all the time.
Warrior were quite different. When warriors train, their mind could be somewhere else while they were doing physical training.
Tom entered his bedroom and closed the door.After making sure no one was eavesdropping, he summoned Jazad and Bhazud.
They both knelt and bowed. "Master."
Tom smiled. "Now I have 3 mid Diamond Rank undead, and 1 high Diamond Rank undead."
With this force, nobody could push him around without thinking about the consequences.
Well, Aldred had showed that he could leveled the biggest mountain of this kingdom, so everyone should already understand his power.
"Do the two of you have any valuable potions?" Tom asked.
Jazad bowed and replied: "I do have one, master."
He snapped his finger, and a bottle of potion appeared in his hand."
Tom scanned the potion with his eyes. "Philter of Growth. This potion could strengthened my physique and mind at the same time. It's both good for magician and warrior, but it's much more effective for warrior to use it."
Philter of Growth had the effect of strengthening one's physique. Every warrior was born with powerful physique. Some had stronger physique than others, and there was limit to how far it could be trained, depending on one's talent.
The Philter of Growth however could help to break that limit.
Aldred did not have a limit, but it still could increase the durability of his body.
More importantly, he could recreate these potions and sell them.
Philter of Growth was a rare and expensive potion. Only rarely it appeared in elite auction places exclusive for the nobles and extremely wealthy family with years of history.
"Corduul," Tom called.
The space beside tom warped and Corduul walked out, his metal feet thudding against the wooden floor.
"You called, master?"
"Scan the property of this potion and began to make more of it. I plan to make it as one of our top product."
"Certainly, master."
The space warped again and sucked Corduul in, vanishing from the spot.
With the Mechanicum's computing power and large amount of Tech Priest working behind the scene, it wouldn't take long for them to scan the formula and began production.
He would have to make another company called Aldred's Potion Shop or something.
It would sell all kinds of potion, but especially the rare and expensive ones. That way his brand could grow.
"Wait, since knowledge in this world is very valuable, maybe I could sell all the skill obtained by the Mechanicum."
That was a fantastic idea. Since Aldred had killed a lot of people and sucked all of their memories, information about their magic spells and martial technique were also absorbed.
These could be written in a book and be sold again.
Except for secret and forbidden technique, everything could be sold without any problem.
Aldred's Knowledge Shop. That would be the name of his new company since he would not only sell spells and martial art, but also other information about everything else such as plants, magic beast, dragons, formation, strategy, and other knowledge.
It would be like a library.
After thinking about his business, Tom pulled out a small metallic device out of his pocket and stabbed both Jazad and Bhazud on the head, absorbing their information.
"Hmmm, so despite working as assassin for years, they do not even know who their boss was?"
Whoever was employing these two were very careful. But to be able to groom mid Diamond Rank magician and warrior as assassin meant that their former boss was a wealthy and resourceful person.
It had to be a noble family.
"But, what would they think of me now since two of their assassin failed to kill me?"
They would probably think that Aldred deployed a very powerful golem to protect his son. That meant they would send something stronger in the future.
Tom sighed. He could handle a high Diamond Rank, but Adamantite Rank was impossible for him now.
The more information he absorbed the more he realized how powerful an Adamantite Rank was. In this continent, they were considered a god-like entity.
Due to Aldred's emissary, he had the chance to enter the university where Adamantite Rank themselves would teach.
With his capability, he could absorb so many skills and information without any problem.
Tom checked Bhazud's memory next. He was a powerful mid Diamond Rank magician with all kinds of deathly spell. While Tom browsed through his memories, filled with the scene of assassination, there were other scenes that caught his eyes.
Bhazud, using his charming spells manage to charm the daughter of an emperor. And not just any emperor, it was the emperor of Divine Empire of Stotford!
The Divine Empire of Stotford was ten times more powerful than the Kingdom of Withokere with its territory stretching far and wide!
Who would have thought that a simple assassin could have any contact with the daughter of such figure.
But thankfully, the princess manage to dispel the charm.
However, that was after Bhazud took her virginity.
"... this man is crazy."
Aldred loved sleeping with women, but even he would have thought a hundred times before sleeping with the daughter of an emperor. (Not him forgetting that he had slept with the wife of an emperor before)
Tom shook his head and told the two of them to return to the shadow.
Sighing, he called for the maids to enter his room and gave him a massage as he stared out of the window.
Looking at the sky, he expected to see something. A floating castle, or something else.
But there was nothing.
The night was especially lonely and quiet.
After enjoying his massage, Tom ordered the maids to leave as he climbed up onto his bed.
Staring at the ceiling for a few minute, Tom began to close his eyes.
As he went to sleep however, a speck of light passed by in the sky.
