I Have A Demon God Simulator

Chapter 16: Su Mu Goes To The Real World

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After a while, Su Mu calmed down and began to sort out his inventory.

First of all, he had obtained 60 points.

Spending all of them at once was unnecessary at the moment.

When he encountered a new dungeon, he could make his purchases according to the situation.

In any case, most of his talents and items would not take effect in the real world, so it was useless to spend them now.

…

Next, Su Mu could take one of the ten talents permanently. In the future, this talent would also accompany him when he entered an instance dungeon.

After some consideration, he chose [Resentment].

It was true that this talent would bring him great pain when he died.

However, Su Mu had already figured out how to use the death system.

The key to this so-called death game was to choose the most correct way to die from one death after another and transform into a terrifying demon!

In the next instance dungeon, he would most likely face certain death.

Turning into a demon after death was inevitable.

[Resentment] would make Su Mu experience great pain. Filled with hatred and resentment, his demon would end up even more powerful!

Therefore, this talent was very important.

It would probably find a use in every upcoming instance dungeon.

In comparison, the other nine talents were nothing.

…

After selecting his permanent talent, it was time for the real highlight.

Su Mu’s biggest gain from the last instance was the Bloodfiend skeleton.

Solidifying the demon template was the only core function of the death system.

Without this ability, the so-called system would be nothing more but a needlessly realistic VR game.

Su Mu opened the system panel and read it carefully.

[Demon template: Bloodfiend Skeleton]

[Note: you will have all the abilities of the Bloodfiend skeleton and can switch between human and demon state at will.]

Su Mu’s eyes shone with excitement.

“This is what it’s all about!”

Talents and items took no effect in the real world.

But the demonic form was the prize!

In other words, Su Mu was capable of transforming into the Bloodfiend skeleton in the real world!

…

“So many years have passed. I’ve almost forgotten my real identity in the real world after I transmigrated.

“It’s time to go back.”

Three minutes had passed by the time he was done.

Su Mu’s vision turned black, and his consciousness returned to his body in the real world.

“Oh…”

As soon as he returned to the real world, a rotten stench entered Su Mu’s nose, causing him to frown in disgust.

Su Mu was in a dark and gloomy prison, filled with the stench of death.

Su Mu was on the death row!

This was the real world!

However, Su Mu activated the system and entered the simulation space after only three days.

As a result, he had not even fully integrated with the memories of his previous self and had almost forgotten that he had transmigrated. The details of his life were even more vague.

Now that he had suddenly returned to the real world, Su Mu had to reorient himself with his memories.

…

Su Mu, from Yongzhou’s Yanjing, age 16.

His father had died on the battlefield in his early years.

He left behind an orphan and a widow to depend on each other.

However, his mother had always been weak and sickly. When she suddenly heard the news that he had been thrown into the death row, she fell ill and soon passed away.

In other words, he was an orphan in the real world!

Su Mu couldn’t help but laugh at himself.

He was an orphan in both the virtual world and the real world.

It seemed that he was really born to be a protagonist!

However, Su Mu was now in the death row, and he was only one step away from death.

As for the reason he was thrown into the death row…

Su Mu cast his gaze toward the other person in the cell.

It was a burly man with a full beard, and he was even taller than Su Mu’s huge, hulking reincarnations in the simulations.

However, this burly man was severely wounded.

Moreover, the wounds had not been treated, and most of them had rotted and festered.

Even from a few meters away, Su Mu could smell the rotten stench.

…

His name was Xu Congwu, a sworn brother of Su Mu’s father.

After Su Mu’s father died on the battlefield, he had entrusted Su Mu and his mother to him.

Xu Congwu took Su Mu’s father’s last words to heart and took good care of Su Mu and his mother.

After leaving the battlefield, he placed Su Mu and his mother in the capital of Da Qian, Yan Jin, and changed their household registration.

After that, Xu Congwu used his military merits to get a position as a Baihu of the Jinyiwei in Yan Jin.

Su Mu was not very talented in martial arts.

After ten years of cultivation, he was barely a third-rate warrior.

However, Xu Congwu still tried his best to bring him into the Jinyiwei to serve as an officer under him.

The military officials of the Great Qian Dynasty had to have the corresponding strength to back their ranks up.

With Su Mu’s martial arts cultivation, he was at the highest possible position.

This was also the cause of the disaster.

…

It was the 46th year of the Tianqi era. The Saint was aging.

For the past two years, the struggle for the heir apparent had only escalated.

The entirety of Yanjing was filled with blood!

Xu Congwu’s immediate superior had been involved in the fight for the heir apparent.

The man was summarily executed on the spot.

All the ranked officials under his command were sent to the death row!

Just like that, Xu Congwu and Su Mu, the uncle and nephew pair, were thrown into the death row with blank faces.

In the beginning, they didn’t even know what had happened. They only found out after being tortured.

Perhaps because of Su Mu’s insignificant, no one thought that he would know any secrets.

Thus, he was lucky enough to escape.

It was not the same for Xu Congwu.

After a few rounds of torture, he was beaten half to death, but nothing came out of him.

After making sure that Xu Congwu knew nothing, the officials let him go.

However, he was already near death.

Even if he did survive this beating, he was still on death row!

Fortunately, the system showed up, and he finally had hope of survival!

…

“I don’t believe that I can’t escape from this prison with the Bloodfiend Skeleton!”

Su Mu’s face was filled with determination and hope.

However, before he could escape, he had to figure out how powerful this Bloodfiend Skeleton truly was in this world.

With a single thought, crimson bone claws emerged from the fingertips of Su Mu’s right hand.

It was identical to the Bloodfiend skeleton’s!

With another thought, the flesh and blood on Su Mu’s right arm faded away, revealing a bloody skeletal arm.

Su Mu carefully examined it, and then his flesh and blood reappeared, covering the bone.

In the blink of an eye, Su Mu had returned to normal.

Other than him, no one knew what kind of terrifying skeleton he hid under his skin!

“Looks like I’ve indeed inherited the full Bloodfiend skeleton’s strength, and I can switch forms at will.

“It’s just that… I haven’t figured out the Bloodfiend skeleton’s ability just yet. I need more time.”
