My players are too fierce!

Chapter 19 Demon Host

The lobby of the tavern.

Seven people, eight pairs of eyes, all stared intently at the "Collection of True Names of Demons" on the table.

His erosion of the surrounding environment was suppressed to the extreme by the firelight.

The effect is minimal unless you bite into the cover.

Emma stared at Him with burning eyes, as if she wanted to devour Him.

[Occupation: Demonologist]

[Bias: Control, Debuff, Disruption]

[Basic Attributes: Flesh -1, Spirit +1]

[Job Change Requirements: 1. Enslave a spirit demon; 2. Sanity value below 60.]

Roland tapped his fingers on the sofa armrest.

"Emma, do you know how to enslave a demon?"

If you asked him to kill a demon, perhaps he would.

However, enslaving demons was beyond his capabilities, given that he had only been there for a little over a month.

Emma rolled her eyes at Roland.

She really wanted to throw the words "I can't" in Roland's face.

Enslaving demons is the specialty of the Domination School, and it is also a prerequisite for becoming a sage of the Domination School.

If she had that ability, she would be the first to have someone tie up these lunatics and see if their brains had been eaten by demons!

But now six idiots are staring at her, and that damned rat is waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

"...Um, how about you try the blood oath first?"

Roland carefully considered the feasibility of this operation and handed his dagger to David Day.

Players can be resurrected, so it's not a big problem!

[Mission: Enslave a Demon]

[Reward: Job Change to Demon Scholar]

I casually posted a task.

Huh? I'll do it?

David Day was surprised to be assigned this task. He glanced at Hakimed and asked him to make a decision.

Hakimed rolled his eyes and said, "You'll have to accept this good fortune!"

Hachimedes himself disliked this profession.

A real man fights with his fists! What's the point of hiding in the back and shooting at someone?

Needless to say, the swordsman is clearly a veteran.

Kashima and Toad are not interested in damp or shady professions.

Not to mention that they don't meet the requirements for changing jobs right now. It's impossible for them to wander around outside and let their sanity drop below 60 just for a job with an uncertain future.

That's insane!

Seeing that David Day was about to give up, Roland gave him a push: "He was found and taken in by you, this honor belongs to you!"

He spoke in a deliberately lowered voice.

ha?

Is it an honor to be a guinea pig?

Although it seems that this profession only requires hiding in the back and casting skills, without having to fight like the front row or bear the pressure of being the core damage dealer.

Now I have an excuse to slack off!

Holding a dagger, he walked towards the "Devil's True Names Register".

He was visibly trembling.

Don't come any closer!

The firelight was eerie, as if it had sealed His mouth shut, preventing Him from making a sound.

The dagger sliced across his palm, and blood dripped onto the cover.

He was trembling.

Useless.

Roland glanced at Emma with a questioning look.

Emma blushed with embarrassment and glared back.

"Um... how about we try another one..."

Before Emma could finish speaking, David frowned and pressed his still-bleeding hand directly onto the cover, rubbing it.

Not only Emma, but even Roland was astonished.

So fierce?

It's not that David Day was brainless and reckless.

In fact, the instant the blood dripped down, he heard the book whispering to him.

"...Please...give it to me...I want more..."

His tone was incredibly varied and intricate.

He knew it was the book communicating with him in an encrypted way.

He's done things no more than three times already, and he's quite familiar with the process.

As for things like the so-called devil's whispers, he had considered them.

But when he thought about how the first three missions had all been accomplished through His encrypted communication, he felt relieved.

Perhaps this is a unique feature of the game's quest guidance?

He was so moved he almost cried.

He asked, and David Day truly gave!

He retracted his previous assessment that he was a fool.

Change it to: "Stupid person with an underdeveloped brain!"

Gaa gaa gaa! My path of revenge is about to begin!

All that tormented Him will kneel at my feet! Offer me fresh brains!

Although the Fire Seed's suppressive power remained constant, it couldn't withstand having a bleeding wound pressed against His face; this was no different from actively inviting Him to possess His body.

The prey has already been prepared with scallions, ginger, and garlic; all I need to do is follow the veins upwards!

"Um...why does my scalp feel itchy..."

You need to use your brain!

[This time, 2 points of fuel were consumed]

Knowledge flooded his mind, but that didn't change Roland's heartache over the fuel cost of those two units.

Emma has to work overtime!

"Sigh, I'll do it."

After saying that, he stood up and picked up the dagger that had fallen from the ground.

A single slash revealed David's chest.

It's white and tender, with no hair.

"Swordsman, bring your sword!"

The swordsman tossed the broken sword to Roland.

Roland took the sword and thrust it downwards, pinning David's hand to the book.

Wait! This can't be...

He panicked. The mount hadn't finished possessing him yet; a part of him remained inside David. If he wanted to take that part back, he had to go through the wound on his hand.

But now a sword from the spirit world is stuck in the wound, cutting off His escape route.

Then, with terrifying speed, Roland began carving on David's body with a dagger.

Eight-pointed star... runes...

Emma was stunned.

If you already know this trick, why did you ask me?

Isn't this a deliberate attempt to humiliate me?

Of course, this little grumbling didn't stop Emma from observing Roland's actions on the spot.

This is an extremely rare learning opportunity!

In the city of Nest, only two kinds of people can witness the sage's craftsmanship firsthand.

One method is direct instruction from a sage.

Another type is experimental materials.

Hehe... Let's just assume Roland deliberately gave him this opportunity to apologize.

The cat ears on its head sway back and forth, revealing the owner's inner thoughts.

The four men, including Hakimed, were also stunned.

This is so bloody, it definitely wouldn't pass censorship on any Earth website.

Although they couldn't understand any of the actual stuff, Roland's moves were awesome!

The knife was swift and clean; Roland's expression was solemn, presenting the bloody scene of human sacrifice as if it were a scene of an artist creating art.

Is it something they can watch for free?

"Okay, it's resolved."

Roland let out a long sigh of relief; the knowledge receded like a receding tide.

Too lazy to care that David had regained his senses and the pain had returned, he simply pulled out the broken sword and tossed it to the swordsman.

He was in so much pain that he rolled on the ground, clutching his hand.

Then, upon touching the runes that had just been carved on his body, he completed a jump on the spot.

"This is... a demonic host?"

Emma recognized what Roland had done.

To forcibly seal a part of the demon into the host's body, thereby enslaving the demon!

"Yes."

He then stopped paying attention to Emma.

Close your eyes and savor the feeling you just experienced.
