With regards to extracting the blood of those giants, it was actually a rather simple process.
First, Sasani had the two devils, No.3 and Big 4, placed on the right and left of one of the Four-stars. There, laid a hole we had dug up prior and it was also there that we poured in the blood of the giants.
The entire process started with Sinmosa tearing apart the rocky exterior of those giants with her paws. From that gaping hole, flowed a viscous lava-like fluid that slowly covered the two injured devils. While the blood flow was kind of slow, it was only a matter of ti before the hole beca a bloody pool.
Initially, I assud that the two of them would float to the top once we filled the hole with blood, but as I soon found out when the hole was filled, they didnt.
Are you sure theyll be fine like thatcan they even breathe Even devils had to breathe so this treatnt thod of Sinmosa was ratherconcerning, not that I was doubting its efficacy.
It will be fine. The blood contains the purest essence of those giants, by soaking them with one whole giants worth of blood, theres no way they wont evolve. She confidently answered .
The two of them are Four-stars right now. If we were to dowse them with giant blood, they will forcefully evolve into Five-stars and beco a new race of devil; gaining the respective clan na and abilities as well. In a sense, its a super evolution. Moreover, the blood of those giants contain a vast amount of pure energies. By soaking in that, they dont need air, in fact, the pollutants in the air would probably affect the chances of evolving.
Shes right! The two of them are now at an important threshold. For them to be receive such injuries and then such nourishnt, is actually a blessing in so sense. By evolving, they are no longer ordinary devils but are instead a different race entirely!
What were ordinary devils? Those were devils similar to No.3 and Big 4 in their Four-stars form. In other words, imps and Demon Childes. Looking at it from another point of view, devils like Mo Na and I werent ordinary at all, but were actually high level devils since we belonged to the Lust Demon branch. In this case, high level wasnt actually referring to our stars level but rather to the fact that we possessed an innate advantage over our peers.
In the world of the devils, a lot of attention was paid to bloodlines and clans because the more prestigious ones bloodline was, the more potential they held. For example, the aforentioned imps and Demon Childes were basically the most primal form of the devil form. To the devils with higher bloodlines, these low level devils were basically dogs, slaves. This was especially so for the Small Imps whose low strength level relegated them to the level of food.
That was why the jump from Four-stars to Five-stars was a unique one.
Either way, with one entire giants worth of blood to nourish them, No.3 and Big 4s safety wasnt sothing I needed to worry about for now. At this mont, I was more interested in Cinderels situation. According to that old dog, Sidarth, she wasnt completely in the clear yet. Because of her premature birth, Cinderel required nourishnt on a regular basis, at least until she reached Six-stars. Should she experience an energy deficiency in the anti, her life might be endangered.
How about we let Cinderel have so as well. I gently ruffled the fur on the little black puppys head as she tumbled about with Mo Na. She was rather fond of so my gesture was t with a tender lick of her tongue.
However, that suggestion was rejected by a shake of Sinmosas head. She had hesitated for quite a while before making that decision but in the end, she said this: Thats not too good, is it? Its your spoils after allwe didnt contribute all that much. Escaping from that realm was entirely your work
Its fine, all this happened because of an accident in the first place. Besides, No.3 and Big 4 dont require that much blood. Evolving too fast isnt good for them after all. More importantly, arent we comrades? Also, you guys contributed as well, rember?
To , Sinmosa was a trusted companioneven though I had purposely hidden the fact about Fertinier from herto be fair, it wouldnt have made a difference even if I told herand telling her that a Devil Kings soul was residing in would be a littleabsurd. Perhaps not telling her was actually the better choice, at the very least she wouldnt think that I was trying to lie to her with so poor excuse about possession
As for what she thought I was hidingwell, that was up to her imaginationmy conscience was clear at least.
Alright then, lets just give her so from No.3 and Big 4s giant. Sinmosa gave her husband a brief look before saying that. In the end, their concern for their child convinced them to take up my offer. For parents like them, there was no way they would ever want their child to encounter any sort of danger. Besides, wasnt the whole point of following to find so nourishnt for Cinderel in the first place?
Hmm, should we give her a little more?
Shes still young, Im not sure if her little body can even withstand that much so theres no point feeding her more. Sinmosa picked up Cinderel from my arms with her mouth and then lowered her gently onto the floor. Besides, you said so yourself didnt you? Evolving too fast isnt a good thing.
Back on the ground, Cinderel instinctively snuggled herself against Sinmosa, rubbing her little noggin against Sinmosas front paw while putting on a lovable expression.
Oh right, how about you and Sasani have that Four-stars giant, if youre lucky, the two of you might just evolve into Six-stars.
That She stared in shock at . She probably never expected a devil to be so generous.
Truth be told however, I wasnt being generous at all. I had a reason for offering up one of the giants. Back when Sasani was dragging No.3 and Big 4 to the giant, he gave a rather unfriendly look. Even though it was only for the briefest of monts, I still noticed the strangeness in that gaze. Back then, I suspected that Sasani was thinking about killing to steal all the giants for himself. However, that thought was quickly banished by a stern glare from Sinmosa.
Being a d*mned Siscon, a re gaze from his sister was enough to shut him up. Naturally, he wouldnt do anything else to upset her either. Even so, that look was scary enough to warn about a certain fact; I should share so of the spoils with them.
First off, we were a team. No matter who contributed the most, the spoils should be shared amongst the entire team.
As Confucius once said, Fear not poverty but ware inequality. Just think about it for a second, recruiting for a treasure expedition was all fine and dandy what cos after it then? Internal strife, of course.
In fact, such a played out conflict was basically a part of film culture by now.
The situation we were in was basically like that. Being the strongest mbers of our team, Sinmosa and Sasani had to be given their share whether or not they contributed, elsewell, our team wouldnt last past the day. Leaving the team would probably be an alright outco then, the worst case scenario would be that they ganged up on insteadour strength levels werent equal after all
However, all that was basically nothing but a guess on my part. But given how Sasani looked at thensharing the loot shouldnt be a bad idea, right?
Faced with her hesitation, I earnestly looked the couple in all twelve of their eyes and said: I said so didnt I? Were companions, no matter what, only unity and trust can take us further into the future. Honestly, I dont care why you two decided to follow , but as long as there are benefits to be distributed, I would definitely reserve a portion for you all, that you can be sure of.
Without waiting for Sinmosas answer, Sasani furiously nodded his heads; because he wasnt able to speak in the tongue of the devil, he had no other way to communicate with us. From the way he nodded however, I could tell that he probably wasnt harboring any nefarious thoughtsfor now at least.
We do, in fact, need themmany thanks.
Unlike No.3 and Big 4, the two of them werent in a comatose state so they could directly ingest the blood of the giants. Bringing Cinderel with them, they hopped onto the giants body and opened up a hole beforedrilling themselves into it? Are they planning to eat the giant from the inside?
With that settled, I set aside the matter of those two Cerberuses for now and turned my attention to Mo Na who was currently staring at the last giant with wide eyes. Mama, mama, Mo Na wants to eat that one! But those three big monsters dont have any souls, how strange
Now that she ntioned that, I was a little puzzled as well. Was it because of the fact they were part elentals that no souls ca out of them? Did their souls enter their elental cores upon deathdid they even have cores? Theres no guarantee that their souls werent consud by that Nightmare Steed eitherafter all, my soul was almost consud while in my own dream realm
Truly, this world was a strange one, filled with all sorts of unknown mysteries and dangers waiting for to stumble on. If I wasnt careful enough, I might just slip up and end up battered on the streets sowhere with my bones shattered completely.
