Unknown's POV

Now that they are gone, I can finally work in peace. I took off my mask and I could feel my power circulating within my body. Oh...my dear freedom, I'm coming for you.

SinB's POV

As I stood in the middle of the trap, I felt a bunch of foreign auras emitting slowly. As time went by, the auras became stronger. It's coming...they're coming.

"Starting off strong I see... It's at least 20 werewolves." Magnus said. I wonder if the monsters will get stronger as it goes by... Whatever it was, I just needed to kill those between me and the exit. One by one they started swarming around me. Wait...those don't look like the werewolves we were fighting before.

"Those werewolves you fought back then were just omegas. These are alphas. They are quicker and more immune to silver. You should use wolfsbane instead." Magnus told me.

"Use [Appraisal] and [Speed] too. You'll have an easier time although, it will drain your MP by a lot. Oh wait...you have infinite amount of MP. I forgot about that for a moment." Ryujin said.

After I casted the spells, my reaction time tripled the amount of what the werewolves had. To put it simply, it was an easy fight. 'I wonder what's next.' I thought and before I knew, a greater demon appeared in front of me.

"Hohoho! It's been long since I've surfaced. Is that a lowly human I see? Hm...I sense great amount of energy coming from you. But...it's no use against a great demon." The greater demon mocked me.

"He's the Greater Demon, Mammon II. Mammons are known for being greedy. They seek for everlasting wealth and power. Mammon II is known for stealing other's mana and abilities. But he is slightly different from others as he prefers to steal other's skills rather than their wealth. Once you show him your cards, he has the capability to perfect your skill and use it." Magnus warned me.

"Hm...seems like you know me quite well, I'm surprised. It's been eons since I last made an appearance. Anyway, come show me your skills you lowly human." Mammon II provoked.

'Such a small space to work with. With him standing in the middle, there's only at most one-third of free space. Such a fatty.' I sighed.

>Time Skip< (A.N. I wanted to write about the fight, then I realised how long it was going to be and when I read it, it was too boring. I nearly fell asleep...)

"OKAY! OKAY! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Forgive me!" Mammon II shouted, struggling to break through from the vine cage I trapped him in.

"Oh my...where's your manners?" I teased him.

"PLEASE forgive me! My skin...it's burning and the thorns are tearing my flesh apart. Please end my suffering!" Mammon II begged.

"Hmm...I...I don't want to. I won't give you a quick and painless death. I want to see you suffer." I replied.

"Please have mercy on me." Mammon II cried out.

"Mercy...mercy it is. I want you to make a blood contract with me and serve under me." I commented.

"S-Serve under you? What are you thinking? Are you out of your mind?" Magnus chided me.

"What? I figured that the best punishment is to see the face who defeated you every second of your day. No?" I wondered.

"Actually, now thinking about it...it seems like a good idea. You can use him at your disposal too." Ryujin agreed.

"I think...I would be better off with the slow and painful death." Mammon II said, dejectedly.
