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 time before the hole became a bloody pool.
Initially, I assumed 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 didn’t.
“Are you sure they’ll be fine like that…can they even breathe…” Even devils had to breathe so this treatment method of Sinmosa was rather…concerning, not that I was doubting it’s efficacy.
“It will be fine. The blood contains the purest essence of those giants, by soaking them with one whole giant’s worth of blood, there’s no way they won’t evolve.” She confidently answered me.
“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 become a new race of devil; gaining the respective clan name and abilities as well. In a sense, it’s a super evolution. Moreover, the blood of those giants contain a vast amount of pure energies. By soaking in that, they don’t need air, in fact, the pollutants in the air would probably affect the chances of evolving.”
‘She’s right! The two of them are now at an important threshold. For them to be receive such injuries and then such nourishment, is actually a blessing in some 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 weren’t ordinary at all, but were actually high level devils since we belonged to the Lust Demon branch. In this case, high level wasn’t 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 one’s bloodline was, the more potential they held. For example, the aforementioned 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 giant’s worth of blood to nourish them, No.3 and Big 4’s safety wasn’t something I needed to worry about for now. At this moment, I was more interested in Cinderel’s situation. According to that old dog, Sidarth, she wasn’t completely in the clear yet. Because of her premature birth, Cinderel required nourishment on a regular basis, at least until she reached Six-stars. Should she experience an energy deficiency in the meantime, her life might be endangered.
“How about we let Cinderel have some as well.” I gently ruffled the fur on the little black puppy’s head as she tumbled about with Mo Na. She was rather fond of me so my gesture was met with a tender lick of her tongue.
However, that suggestion was rejected by a shake of Sinmosa’s head. She had hesitated for quite a while before making that decision but in the end, she said this: “That’s not too good, is it? It’s your spoils after all…we didn’t contribute all that much. Escaping from that realm was entirely your work…”
“It’s fine, all this happened because of an accident in the first place. Besides, No.3 and Big 4 don’t require that much blood. Evolving too fast isn’t good for them after all. More importantly, aren’t we comrades? Also, you guys contributed as well, remember?”
To me, Sinmosa was a trusted companion…even though I had purposely hidden the fact about Ferti’nier from her…to be fair, it wouldn’t have made a difference even if I told her…and telling her that a Devil King’s soul was residing in me would be a little…absurd. Perhaps not telling her was actually the better choice, at the very least she wouldn’t think that I was trying to lie to her with some poor excuse about possession…
As for what she thought I was hiding…well, that was up to her imagination…my conscience was clear at least.
“Alright then, let’s just give her some from No.3 and Big 4’s 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, wasn’t the whole point of following me to find some nourishment for Cinderel in the first place?
