Demonic energy works. I had just confirmed it.
"Heuk Saek has fallen."
The leader of the Black Factionâ
The man known as Gubongâs father had succumbed to demonic influence and turned into a demon.
At first, when I infused him with demonic energy, I wasnât entirely sure.
But afterward, judging by his condition, it was definitely taking effect.
Howeverâ
"Not completely."
I wasnât sure why, but I had failed to fully enslave him.
If I had to sum it up, Iâd say half-successful.
He had become a demon, but his loyalty to me wasnât absolute.
There was no drastic shift in his mentality.
Most people who become demons show unwavering devotion to me.
But Heuk Saek⦠was different.
Was it because he himself was unusual?
Or was it because the Moonlit Night Tribe itself was strange?
"Iâll have to test this on others."
I had never planned to use demonic energy here.
More accurately, I never expected Iâd need to.
"Why would I come all the way to another world and use something like this?"
That was my reasoning before.
But nowâ
"I donât have time to be picky."
Now, I had to use whatever I could to finish things quickly.
"It worked?"
"Yes. But only partiallyâenough to put him on a leash."
It could shackle his bodyâbut not his mind.
"Hmm."
Hearing this, Shin Noya made a peculiar expression.
Seeing that, I involuntarily glanced at him.
