“That amount of soul energy output, impossible,” Lois said after her shocking discovery that the amount of soul energy being emitted by the young benefactor of the fusion southern emperor was beyond his realm. Then thinking of something she said, “You made a pact with a devil.”

“Ding, Ding, Ding! Your award for the correct answer is the ass whooping of your life,” said the figure holding Anna(Ann) in his arms while a body grew out of his back and separated to take his complete form. Interestingly the dummy ring could be seen on the ring figure of the new body that just grew flew toward Lois, while the old body carried Anna(Ann) in princess carry to a safe distance. Knowing that this place was not safe for someone in a serious condition as Anna(Ann).

Being carried out of the battlefield by a clone of her young lover Anna(Ann) turned to look at his original body as it flew toward Lois, brimming with unfathomable energy levels. She had heard the conversation between her lover and Lois about making a pact with the devil for his newfound prowess so she could not help but worry for him. As if the clone read her thoughts, it consoled her saying, “Everything is going to be alright, trust him.”

Anna(Ann) looked at the clone’s confident smile but her worry for her crush did not decrease as she knew, even if her young lover was able to defeat Lois with the borrowed power, he would be devoured by the devil that lent him the power. Unlike the oaths taken in the presence of the world’s will, pacts with the devil had no higher power governing the pact, meaning the rules of the pact changed with the will of the one with the bigger fist. With this Anna finally decided to take Ann up on her offer to practice fusing their soul, even though it was too late now, it was better late than never.

Watching the target carry the fusion southern emperor to safety, Lois looked at the part that grew out of the target asking, “Which one of you two is the original body?”

“Ugh, it seems you possess a disgusting but troublesome ability,” Lois said in disgust of having watched a human grow out of the back of another, then added, “Considering that your realm has jumped from card soldier to the card demigod realm, I think you must have sacrificed something valuable? Your soul, maybe. Regardless, when you agreed to the pact with the devil, you basically signed your own death certificate. But still, it’s best if I make sure you stay dead.”

“Aren’t you forgetting something?” the boy asked Lois, seeing her preparing to finish him off with her attack.

Even though Lois thought that the boy signed his death certificate by signing a pact with the devil, she knew the southern royal family was there to shelter him even from the falling sky, let alone the devil. She did not want to take a chance with the completion of her mission, especially not to a devil.

“What?” Lois paused in her tracks and asked the boy.

“Your reward, the ass whooping of your life,” the boy scorned Lois, with his borrowed demigod prowess the boy was no longer afraid of Lois rather he somewhat looked down on Lois. She was not able to kill him when he was a card soldier and did not have the power to fight back yet she was boosting about killing him now.

“Boy, aren’t you too cocky for someone living on borrowed time and power? Tell me, do you regret making a pact with the devil for your sugar mama?” Lois taunted the boy in response to his scorn-filled words. As someone who gained her current realm and power with hard work, Lois was provoked to see someone with burrowed power looking down on her.

“No, I don’t. She thinks we are lovers. And I strongly believe that love should be repaid with love. Not to mention I consider myself very generous,” the boy answered turning to look at the silly girl being carried away by his clone, she jumped in front of the demigod realm suicide bomber for him without a second thought and did not complain.

The boy still did not know if love was just fooling oneself, nonetheless, he knew for that silly girl today he was willing to risk his life.

Just recalling the moment when that girl did not hesitate to sacrifice herself for him, a stupid grin showed on the boy’s face. But the grin disappeared as he felt the presence of Lois within the mid-section of his spiritual channel.

In an instant, Lois appeared behind him but before she could launch her sneak attack on the boy she saw two heads grow out of the back of the boy’s head with a 120-degree space between all three heads. Then the two new pairs of boy’s eyes established eye contact with her with an insane reaction speed.

Glancing into the two pairs of eyes, Lois was shocked and stopped in her tracks then immediately retreated, sensing two pairs of hands growing out of the boy’s shoulder blade and floating toward her as if planning to capture her. The four arms followed Lois for a while until she retreated far and vanished into her spiritual channel, then they returned to the boy and floated behind him along with the two floating heads.

Feeling the threat gone, Lois returned to the physical plane. Then she looked at the boy with three heads and six arms with great horror and asked, “What the fuck are you?”

“Your, death,” the boy answered, bombarding Lois with his horrifying baleful aura, jolting her awake from her shock.
