[Degeneration Halo]
Jake used the skill after he had fully recovered his mana. A visible, black aura spread from his body and reached 100 feet before disappearing.
Jake saw that when the paladin was hit by the halo, he would utter incomprehensible words while twitching. Black fus ca out of his body but a surge of white light extinguished it.
The skill didn’t work and Jake frowned. He had used 70 mana for that. Jake tried again and the sa thing happened. It seed that white light was the remaining divine power.
Jake could tell that there wasn’t much left now. He let the divine power slowly disappear from the body.
In the anti, he checked on the others here. It looked like Irene was slightly injured but the priestesses were fine. Jake glanced at the Hell Knight and saw that he was heavily injured.
‘Bring the Earth Golems here to patch things up,’ Jake called Lena through Magipathy.
‘Yes, master!’ she quickly replied, ecstatic that he had won the match.
Jake then told the priestesses to go rest. Irene ca forward and he cast a [Minor Regeneration] on her.
”Why did the church send a paladin? Did they realize that this dungeon has you, master?” Irene asked.
Jake glanced at the tall man on the floor and scrunched his brows. He used [Demonic Grasp] and pulled the man.
”No, they wouldn’t send a lone paladin here if that was the case. A battalion of Church Knights and Exorcists would be coming along with him,” Jake replied.
He and Irene looked at each other. It appeared this paladin had co here on his own.
‘Ash Harley… He has to be related to the Senesten village leader’s family…’ Jake quickly noted this.
Half an hour later, inside a clean chamber on the 18th floor. Erin, Irene, Lena, Perry and a few curious others were surrounding the paladin on the floor.
Jake was before them, his hand stretched forward. This ti, he was sure that there was no divine power. He was also being boosted by the three priestesses.
[Degeneration Halo]!
Jake used the skill again. A reaction imdiately occured. He saw dark marks beginning to appear on the severely injured paladin. This was the sign that everything was going well.
”Aa… Aarrgghhh!” Ash’s eyes suddenly shot open and he roared in agony.
There was pain. Physical and ntal. He felt like his whole being was being covered in filth. His thoughts were incoherent and sotis unholy.
Ash didn’t know that the corrupted seed was being placed in his mind. The more he resisted, the more pain he felt. The paladin clasped his sword laying nearby but he couldn’t use it. He could see that sa demon standing tall in front of him.
”Aarrgghh… I will… I will not serv….”
Jake felt a sharp headache. He knew that this was the resistance from the paladin. As he had already expected this from the start, Jake didn’t panic. His will was higher than this paladin’s, so he would win no matter what.
Also, he could use physical attacks to disrupt Ash in a battle of wills. Jake used [Dark Fire] and the situation imdiately tilted to his favor.
Ash’s rationality faded bit by bit. He clung to his faith until the last mont before becoming completely silent. Now there was no pain. No confusion. No hatred.
A deep humming sound ca from the previous paladin’s body. His sword changed colors and beca dark. Deep, crimson cracks appeared in its blade, as if lines of lava were flowing on it.
The gaping hole in his belly began patching up due to a miraculous power. Ash pushed his body and got on one knee before the tall demon in front of him.
”Greetings, Master.”
Ash looked completely different from before. His face which reeked of righteousness now had nothing but apathy.
The man’s appearance didn’t change at all, but his mind and powers had changed.
Looking at the panel in front of him, Jake’s eyes focused on one single line. To be honest, he had expected sothing like this.
[Job: Dark Knight]
…
Jake postponed the matter about going to Viscount Dorstone’s fief. He gave his new servant an order to bring so won from the villages.
Jake had a lot of space on the 18th floor, so the new won could stay and take care of each other. When he would upgrade its tier, he would have more space. It would be enough to make a mini city in so of the lower floors. He had high ambitions.
After his fight with Ash, Jake realized that he had gotten a lot stronger. He could be considered as a powerhouse in the Grimbow Kingdom. Jake just had to advance to the 4th Circle.
‘Where can I kill 1000 people without bringing attention…? These villages? No, I need more isolated settlents…’ Jake thought.
”Tch.” He clicked his tongue.
”What’s wrong, master?” Below him, Erin pulled out his dick and asked. Her palms laying on his thighs trembled. Did he not like it now?
”Keep sucking,” he ordered and went on thinking.
Erin glanced at him before opening her lips and swallowing his cock. She obediently moved her head back and forth.
It was late at night. The only sounds coming from Jake’s room were snores and slurps.
…
Tomorrow morning, Jake sat on his high-back chair. Yunna laid on his lap while feeding him grapes.
Her master held her by her breast. He repeatedly patted her butt while stroking her thigh. She had grown used to it by now.
On the floor below, knelt a masked man wearing black full-plate armor. He was the paladin from yesterday who beca her master’s servant.
”Do you know Viscount Dorstone?”Jake asked.
”Yes.”
Two deep voices resounded in the place.
”Do you know where he lives?”
”I do.”
Jake paused and ate the grape which Yunna fed him. He aggressively squeezed her boobs and she let out a ”Mrrmmm…”
‘I don’t have to go there and visit that viscount,’ Jake thought, looking at the kneeling Ash on the floor.
[Ding! You have committed a prideful sin. You gain 144 Evil Points!]
He could let his new servant bring the man here. A 4th Circle Dark Knight would absolutely crush that viscount. Capturing and bringing him was easy. However, Jake wanted to have so fun in this.
”Kidnap William Dorstone’s wife and daughters and bring them here. Tell him to reach Rustfall in a day with his most precious belongings if he wants them.”
