“It’s difficult to say, Master.” Shao sighed after examining in our room. “I’m not exactly a real demon.”
Although Shao was technically a Demon, she was reincarnated into this world and only appeared a demon. The village she had appeared in was a border town, not unlike Chalm, where nonaggressive demons and humans seed to live together. This village was burned to the ground by the Imperial Cloud adow, and Shao was turned into a slave until she ultimately ended up in Aberis.
She had never been in the demon lands, and she knew nothing regarding demons at all. It wasn’t like she had so kind of genetic mory on what it ant to be a demon. As for becoming a Demon Lord, that was sothing that had happened due to despair. Perhaps, it was the special job she was given. Mine was White Mage, which skipped a great deal of practice to instantly give a third-tier job. Demon Lord might be similar, but where other jobs could be accessed all the ti, the Demon Lord could only be accessed with special circumstances, which might be soone’s ntal state.
“And Demon Lord is still greyed out.” I finished my thought out loud with a sigh.
Shao jerked for a second, and then looked up at guiltily. “Master, I have sothing to confess.”
“Huh? What is it?”
“I can beco a Demon Lord!”
“What?” I jerked up, feeling a bit alard.
She shook her hands. “It’s not bad! The other girls already know! I can access it similar to the way Lydia accesses her beast form. It’s kind of an emotional thing. When I feel despair and desperation, it unlocks. However, I didn’t lose my mind, so I believe with ti, I can control the job.”
“I see…” I scratched my chin, still worrying a bit. “Well, as long as you think it’s safe.”
She was still my slave, so even if she did turn, I should be able to have so control over her. I wasn’t like her previous Slave Master. I was also a Harem Master! Ahem… and then there were my blessings which gave an affinity for slaves. Overall, Shao shouldn’t beco a problem. Instead, I put it aside and focused more on this Demonic Knight job. I hadn’t equipped it yet because I was worried.
“You have resisted demonic entrapnt.”
“I think that was a one-ti attack when you used the token, Master. Demonic Knight should just be sothing similar to Dark Knight.” Shao explained. “As for why it failed, that should be obvious. You’re immune to certain affects of the miasma.
“Certain affects?”
“Miasma can still damage your soul the sa as anyone. If you fail to resist a powerful enough karmic infection, there can be so consequences.”
“I see…”
“Don’t feel too down. You’re still quite amazing. If you weren’t, it likely would have attacked your mind, and then taken control of you. The effects probably wouldn’t have been obvious at first. It’d probably be like a sleeper agent. Unless activated, you’d go on thinking nothing was wrong.”
“If that’s true… that ans…” My eyes widened in horror.
Shao looked at curiously, but then she started to realize the truth as well.
All of these Knights Lord Reign was creating, they were all infected with demonic entrapnt. I didn’t know where he was getting these tokens from, but whether he knew it or not, he was creating a demonic army! With the snap of a finger, the right person could take control of all of those people, making them fight however he saw fit!
