Edwin connected his mind with Azaroth and informed Azaroth of all that happened.

When Azaroth read those memories, he was extremely startled.

His Clone's Mystic Eyes of Perception couldn't be compared to his own because Azaroth's body possessed the Demon God's Blood. He could use those abilities to an even greater extent.

However, according to what he had witnessed in those memories, he doubted his own Mystic Eyes of Perception would work on Bernado.

'Was this mysterious ability that guy's personal skill or Sinyalian Kingdom's Royal Family's common ability? Killing such a person would be troublesome.'

Azaroth then recalled the information he had heard recently. A demon king took over a Royal Prince's Body and willingly reduced his cultivation base by a rank. He even gave up on Demonic Ardor.

Azaroth hadn't managed to think up a good reason why the demon king would attempt this. But now, he believed if this mysterious ability was granted to a Royal Bloodline of each kingdom, it would make sense for the Demon King to try and acquire it.

'The Demon King must have resisted that mysterious ability's effect by using absolute power he possessed. He merely had to take control over the king's body and not act suspicious.'

'If this Demon King now possesses this mysterious ability, dealing with him would be very troublesome. I might even lose if I am careless.'

There was a solemn look on Azaroth's face as he understood that perhaps he was a bit too hasty in taking action against this Demon King.

He had destroyed one of his dungeons and captured all the demons. Currently, those demons were being used to train the origin sect disciples.

Nearly all the origin sect disciples considered Noah as their commander now.

Well, they had been beaten to a near-death state by Noah. As arrogant as they were, they realized Noah was at a level far beyond them!

Moreover, Noah and Laura were the only ones who reached the second floor. The second floor had rooms filled with demons of 4 Star Rank, or they could be considered Elite Ranked Demons.

Noah couldn't defeat them because his Ardor lacked the decisive power to defeat them. Although he could injure most of them, their numbers were still somewhat troublesome for him to deal with.

The fighting style of the demons was completely different from that of humans. They were a lot less cautious and were more ruthless while attacking.

Noah's Enlightened Sword Heart allowed him to make perfect moves. However, even if Noah's body was moving perfectly, it still couldn't dodge some attacks due to the demons' power or speed.

It was already impressive that he could fight them for as long as he could while he was just a 3 Star Warrior.

Azaroth believed no other 3 Star Warrior could fight against these Elite Ranked Demons for so long.

Laura's Ardor was incomparably pure in nature, and it completely suppressed the demonic ardor.

However, Laura was still not used to the ruthless fighting style of the demons. If someone was attacking them, the demons would continue moving and endure that attack rather than dodging it.

Laura was rather used to utilizing her common sense to think up ways to defeat her opponents.

Her lack of experience fighting demons was now the reason she couldn't battle them for long.

Laura internally felt that she was probably disappointing her Race by losing to these demons even when her Ardor granted her superiority over them.

Azaroth noticed her low morale. Usually, he would let a warrior deal with this kind of situation by themselves.

But Laura's situation would get out of hand if ignored right now. He had to intervene.

It was nighttime, and everyone was done with their dinner. The disciples returned to practice their techniques while some sat in the rooms and meditated peacefully.

Each day, after fighting against the demons and constantly experiencing themselves in those constant life-and-death battles, their ability would improve tremendously.

Their combat experience was increasing at a very quick rate. And they were picking up on the demonic style of fighting.

The ruthless style placed more emphasis on killing the enemy than safeguarding their life.

Due to the special arrays designed by Azaroth, these disciples understood they wouldn't die while fighting against these demons.

Thus, they had begun to go completely crazy while fighting against them. They unleashed their strongest techniques and endured more pain than ever in their lives.

Although from a certain point, their techniques themselves weren't getting stronger. Their grasp over timing, breathing, concentration, and adaptability was progressing to new levels.

And in a battle, this was more effective than knowing a technique.

Azaroth went to meet up with Laura, who was meditating and enhancing her Ardor. She was already at the high stage of the 4 Star Rank.

Just one more step, and she would reach the peak stage. However, she couldn't take this one step…

It felt as though there was an invisible wall between the high stage and the peak stage.

Laura soon opened her eyes as she sensed Azaroth entering her house. By the time she stood up, Azaroth had entered her room.

Laura spoke with a respectful tone, "Greetings, master,"

"We are alone right now, so you can act as you want," Azaroth spoke while stepping forward and gently caressed her head.

"O-okay, master," Laura spoke with a flushed expression. She didn't think Azaroth would start stroking her hair. Did he like her long blonde hair?

Laura didn't wish to express her embarrassed look to Azaroth. Thus, she asked him, "W-What brings you here, master?"

There was a playful smile on Azaroth's face as he asked her, "I need a reason to visit you?"

Laura caught a glimpse of Azaroth's face out of the corner of her eye and felt her heart pound loudly in response to his playful smile and his remarks.

"Let's sit down, shall we?" Azaroth suggested with a gentle tone.

"Mhm~ I will get the chair for you, master," Laura immediately moved to the only chair in the room and picked it up for Azaroth.

She soon placed it near Azaroth's position and then sat on the bed.

Azaroth's chair was placed very close to the bed. It was so close that if Azaroth wanted, he could stretch his arms and easily pull Laura into a hug.

"You appear worried these days. And its' not just your results against those demons. Something else is bothering you, isn't it? If you are comfortable sharing it with me, then do so," Azaroth's gentle and sincere voice entered Laura's ears.

'Was it that obvious?!' She internally panicked upon hearing those words.

"If you don't want to tell me, then that's alright. I won't force you. But take care of yourself. I don't like to see you in such a bad mood," Azaroth spoke seriously.

Those words immediately made Laura panic for a couple of seconds longer before she calmed down.

She made up her mind to talk to Azaroth about this. Laura also wanted to get it off her chest for some time…

"Actually, I really was worried about something, master," Laura admitted while looking at the ground for a couple of seconds before raising her head to look into Azaroth's eyes.

"Master, you are a demon. I don't know why you possess Holy Ardor, but your true identity is that of a Demon, right?" Laura asked with her voice filled with slight fear.

Azaroth didn't even need to use his Mystic Eyes of Perception to understand what this was all about. He sighed internally while seriously nodding to Laura's question. There was no point in trying to hide it from her.

Azaroth spoke, "I was indeed a demon before my rebirth."
