Chapter 84: His daughter sent words (2/2)
”I don't have patience,” Lord Violence mutters under his breath.
”Neither do I.” Lord Fraud clicks his tongue in annoyance.
”If it doesn't work this way, ” Lord Wrath sighs. ”[Feed].”
The flaming snakes hiss after hearing their lord's command. The circles around Fang Aisa ferociously. Fang Aisa bows down further. The flaming snakes drape themselves around her, burning her skin and digs their fangs into her body. She flinches and opens her dark eyes. A slow smile appears on her red lips. ”Looks like I am caught.”
Lord Wrath's pales when he hears the voice. The same taunting tone. The same mockery. The same look in the girl's eyes. ”Jar'Golen.”

”Basically, this bad demon killed his own siblings and their children to become powerful.” Min Ho repeats the summary of the story that this Oracle demon has been telling him. Her version was long and boring. So, he made a guess.
”Yes, a demon is immortal. But, they can die in one way. One way to kill them is to absorb them.” Orana shakes in fear when she remembers the things that Jar'Golen did. ”It's a huge crime in here. It's carnivorous. Even if we are demons, eating our own kind is a bit...disturbing. He didn't leave his own children either.”
It's disturbing that demons find it disturbing. Min Ho wants to tell her that, but he decides against it.
”Lord Wrath and the other Lords killed his supporters and tried to send him to the unbreakable prison,” Orana tells her quietly. She can't forget those chaotic days. She was nearly devoured by a higher demon back then.
”But, he managed to escape. He went to Earth where he kept himself hidden for a long time. He took the identity of a human and birthed many children. He killed his own children and absorbed demonic core to become powerful until his own daughter did the same to him. Dabria found a way to kill him by eating his core directly. It was a clumsy way, but it worked.” She sighs.
”However, she was a half-demon. It was difficult for her to keep him inside. Jar'Golen was weak, but he could take over her body someday or do worse. She couldn't come to hell because she knew that Jar'Golen's children are not welcome here. She couldn't reach immortality on earth because she was a demonic cultivator. She used a similar method to make herself stronger. She worshipped the god of death and sacrificed her own children to make her life longer and become stronger. More than half of her power was spent on keeping Jar'Golen asleep inside her.”
Min Ho understands that much. He looks at Fang Aisa who is smiling back at the lords. She has a different aura around her. He can't read her mind like before. Something is blocking him away.
”That circle can trap a demon and reveal his true identity.” Orana continues. ”Fang Aisa was born with a strong seal. When Dabria found out, she was disappointed at first. But, an idea came to her. She transferred Jar'Golen's spirit to her body. When Fang Aisa's seal was broken, Jar'Golen woke up. He was tremendously weak. So, he kept himself low and hidden. With Fang Aisa, he also became stronger. After coming back to hell, he has gained his strength back. If she had died on Earth, Jar'Golen wouldn't be able to unbind himself from her soul. Now, things are different.”
”That sounds bad.”
