Arux

**Arux** (阿劳克斯 *Alaokesi*), is one of the Three scythes of Joseph. He used to own the Coliseum, before losing to Agulie, who becomes the new owner and his master.

## Story

### War Contract

Agulie signs a War Contract with Agulie.

Shea's description of Arux immediately appeared in Chen Rui's mind. *Arux, one of Joseph's three subordinates, estimated strength is stable Greater Demon stage; he is brave and aggressive; cruel and cold...*

*Aguile's opponent after a month is actually Arux! The owner of the arena! He's also likely to be the strongest Higher Demon in the entire Dark Moon!*

No matter how difficult the previous battles were, they were just battles between Intermediate Demons whereas Higher Demon was a huge difference in terms of rank. No one had ever heard that someone could overcome the rank difference and defeat an opponent. Even if Aguile could rank up within 1 month and became Higher Demon, he would still be incomparable against Arux as 4 months ago, a Higher Great Demon of middle-stage didn't even stand for 10 minutes in the hands of Arux!

### Battle with Agulie

Arux was the head of the three strongest subordinate under the command of finance officer Joseph Alvin. He was a top-notch Higher Demon. He had been in conflict with the Karon Family one month ago. He battled the strongest top-notch Higher Demon of the Karon Family, Salador, and lost twice with injuries. Half a month later, Arux once again challenged Salador to a fight and defeated him.

After the battle, Salador himself admitted that he was no match for Arux. Arux was already close to breaking past the limits of a Higher Demon. Once the opportunity arises, he could transition into Demon King with the identity of a non-mutated bloodline Great Demon.

Once he transitions into Demon King, even if the changes did not occur to Arux, his future bloodline might change to become a Great Demon of a mutated bloodline. The higher his own powers, the stronger the mutated bloodline powers of his future generations. This was enviable for demons born outside of royal families.

Arux's strength was indeed higher than Barnacle, but their characteristics were completely different. Barnacle's strong suit was his defense. Even the enhanced Aurora Shot couldn't breakthrough his absolute defense whereas Arux didn't defend at all as his offense was his best defense. Regardless of his attack desire, power or means, he was the strongest among the opponent of the same level that Chen Rui had met.

## Cultivation

* He starts as Higher Demon.
* After allying with Chen, Chen gives him two Devil fruits.
* He then becomes a Demon King.

### Power level

"I just happen to have a piece of information here; I got it when I gambled at the arena. Please wait for a while, sir." The old dwarf heard the request, turned back to the house and soon came back with a thin booklet. The booklet's corners were heavily worn and seemed to be used regularly for research.

Chen Rui read through it; all the main players in each level were indeed recorded in detail. As for Aguile who just participated yesterday, he wasn't included.

Chen Rui's heart was suddenly shocked. He read that Arux could easily kill a "same level" opponent. His strength might be more than the middle stage. He was likely to reach the peak of Higher Demon or at least the strongest among the middle stage.
