"Okay! So you got the plan? We will all meet up at the end of the exam before all the lie detector tests and then I'll get us all past them when our names are called! Don't forget to hide your sudden power boost and gradually build yourself up to that new power level to make it look as natural as possible," Moby said to Alex as he finished discussing with him his plans about getting past the lie detector.
"Yeah, yeah, I got it! I also need to get used to this mind-link thing. It's not every day you hear someone's voice randomly pop up in your head. Well, anyway, we have stayed here for too long! Jayden and I need to head to our team before they suspect anything! I'll try experimenting with my new skills once I learn how to use demon energy! Anyways, See ya!" Alex said, walking away with a smile.
"Bye baby! We will see each other real soon! Don't go too hard on Natalia and break her because I want some of the fun!" Jayden said in a very childish manner, following right behind Alex.
"Yeah! I better get going too! The Dog is getting pretty rowdy! I should probably take it out for a walk!" Moby said, pointing at Natalia, making the other two turn around and chuckle before walking away once more.
Then, suddenly, Jayden turned around, running towards the completely defenceless Natalia, daggers in hand.
"YESS! COME CLOSER TO ME YOU LITTLE BITCH SO I CAN FINALLY GET RID OF YOU!" Natalia screamed, trying her best to attack Jayden with her nearly broken blades only to be stopped by the same invisible chains as before.
In one swift motion, Jayden gouged out both of Natalia's eyes with her daggers before kicking her in the stomach making her cough buckets of blood.
"Hah! That felt good! Don't worry! Your eyes will heal eventually! That was my goodbye present to you! It was only a small, little, tiny taste of what will befall you in the next week! Now you can't find any sort of pleasure looking up at my boyfriend's face as he drags you back to your team's cave to meet-up with your last remaining member!" Jayden said with a devilish yet somehow childish-looking smile.
"Okay! All done! Now goodbye for realzies!" before turning around, running back towards Alex once more.
'What a girl…' Moby inwardly thought with a chuckle.
Before Alex and Jayden went out of his sight, he decided to use his "inspect" skill on Alex to see his new stats post turning into a demon.

'Hmmm… Just like Avilia said. Low intelligence and mind but high physical stats. He's pretty lucky that his armour somehow held up not being completely destroyed too,'' Moby thought before focusing his attention on Natalia, using his inspect skill on her as well to see if anything would even show up.

'Well, shit! It works! But, It doesn't even show her armour! I guess it must have been broken too much for it to work! Fuck! I really wanted to sell it for a fortune! Also, she has a shit ton of intelligence. That explains how she was able to spam blink so much! And her mind is extremely high, it's even higher than mine!! I guess it's part of being a Succubus! I'll make sure to experiment on her Succubus powers when I have time…' Moby thought.
Then, he slowly walked towards the blind Natalia who was still coughing on the ground and gave her a simple order.
"Follow me… But pretend to be a crazy dog that constantly licks the ground," Moby ordered with a small chuckle as he saw Natalia immediately start eating worms and licking the dirt off the ground despite being blind, making Moby burst out in laughter.
After a few minutes of walking, they finally reached their cave that had a huge hole in the side. Moby passed by Jay's clothes that laid on the ground and the magic crystals that Natalia had laid in front of the cave that were now gray and gave off no light and stored them in his inventory before he and Natalia entered the cave.
There, he saw Travis's slightly aged and shrivelled body still on the ground where he left him. He decided not to kill him because he was interested in his motivations.
He ordered Natalia who had started to slightly regain her lost vision to wait for him in the corner of the cave. His previous order of her acting like a crazy dog was still in effect as all she could do was bark, lick the ground, and do other dog-like things.
Moby then went over to Jay's bag that was still on the cave's floor to grab a regeneration potion, forcing Travis to drink all of it.
He knew that the effect of the potion would take a long time to kick-in so he decided to spend that time teaching Natalia how to use and control her demon energy.
If he wanted her to be able to hide her powers and be able to use her succubus skills when he did his experiments, he needed her to know how to use demon energy.
He dispelled his previous order and taught her in the most gruelling way possible, beating her up for even the slightest mistake and talking down to her like she was a bug. However, to his surprise, he found out that she got some sick sense of satisfaction from every time he would scold or touch her which really creeped him out. Even when he hit her so hard to the point of breaking her bones and organ, she still moaned in satisfaction making Moby stop his abuse on her as it clearly was not working.
"YESSS! HIT ME HARDER DADDY! SCOLD ME MORE DADDY!"
It was like in her head, they were going on a date as they were in private and his attention was all focused on her and her alone.
Even when he started to mention how much he hated her and how much he liked Jayden, she still did not show any negative reactions and kept her horny, lustful acts.
'WHAT THE FUCK!! How does one torture a girl like her!? Has she always been like this or was this due to her becoming a succubus?' Moby inwardly cursed, trying his best to come up with ideas until he found a perfect way, making a devilish grin appear on his face.
The way required more preparation as he could not do it now. He would have to wait until the end of the exam to do what he wanted to do.
So, Moby only had to endure Natalia's nonsense for another day or so until he could make her truly suffer.
'Hahahahha! I am truly a genius!' Moby laughed a mischievous laugh of excitement.
"It seems like daddy is enjoying himself as well!" Natalia said while moaning at Moby who didn't even notice her words as he was still in his moment, so Natalia took it the wrong way.
Then, after what felt like an eternity, Natalia finally managed to learn how to use her demon energy, exactly when Travis started to open his eyes.
Moby ordered Natalia to hide her power increase and act naturally like she was still the team leader as to not draw any unnecessary suspicions from Travis.
The first thing that Travis saw when he opened his eyes was the figure of a smiling demon in human skin that looked like he was ready to peel his skin off like he was an orange and cook him alive in boiling oil.
"No-no! P-please don't kill me! It's not my fault! They ordered me to do it! I just needed the money and protection man! I needed to survive! I'll give you anything!" Travis begged, smashing his forehead on the ground so hard that it started bleeding.
Then, suddenly, he felt a friendly touch on his right shoulder making him look up to see what was going on.
"It's ok… Calm down… I won't kill you! Well, Maybe… I am still not sure yet. I just have a few questions that I want you to answer… ok?" Moby said with a disturbing smile before activating his eyes of sin that he shrouded in purple demon energy.
"You should be lucky that he doesn't exterminate you like the bug you are for trying to kill him like that!" The still really injured Natalia added in a disgusted tone that was filled with killing inetnt from behind him which even further increased his fear.
"Y-yes of course! I'll answer anything!" Travis frantically nodded, not even daring to ask questions bugging his mind such as why Natalia was in such a state.
"Why did you do what you did? Explain everything and don't you dare lie to me!" Moby ordered in a cold voice.
"Well… Like most of the weaker people in the school, I decided to join a gang for money and protection. The Zexis gang to be more precise, it's one of the stronger gangs in the school. The top members are even rumoured to be in the high A ranks! In exchange for completing tasks for them, they give us both protection and money as compensation. If I don't comply with their demands I am as good as dead. My current task was to kill most of my team members so I would get a bigger piece of the money pool at the end of the exam. They promised to get me by the lie detector test by some teacher they had bribed so I did not worry about that. I planned to do it during the last 2 days of the exam to maximize our total beasts killed so we get more money. But, for some reason, I did not even have to do a single thing. All our team members started to drop like flies in only the first few days which was really messing with my plans but ended up actually saving me a lot of trouble in the end as we ended up gaining a lot of points anyway."
"When I saw Jay lash out at you, I thought it was a perfect time to join him and take you out. Then once you were dead, I would turn on Jay, killing him as well. Then, when Natalia returned I would tell her that Jay killed you because of his terrain advantage and that I avenged your death." Travis nervously explained.
'WOW! What the fuck! I swear I predicted like half of this at the start of the exam!' Moby thought, mentally patting himself on the back.
"I am only doing this to get money for my sick mother in the hospital. And if I don't have protection at school I would no doubt be robbed out of every penny," Travis continued.
"AHAHAHAHAH! Are you really pulling out the sick mother card! What is this? An anime? Don't bullshit me like that!" Moby started uncontrollably laughing, his serious face completely breaking down.
"N-no… I am actually being serious… L-look" Travis muttered before pulling out a picture of him and his sick mother on a hospital bed.
"I always keep this with me for good luck…" He laughed awkwardly.
"Ummm… Well! Congratulations! I have good news for you! I have chosen to be merciful and not kill you! But, it's only because I have a use for you! I want you to become my spy for this Zexis gang and report to me on their activities and behaviours! I can just have a feeling that my return to school with all my new powers will cause a lot of trouble with the stronger kids… I have my ways of knowing if you betrayed me. And if you did… I would make you wish you were dead and long forgotten! Both you and your mother!" Moby said in a cheerful tone that became really harsh towards the end.
"Y-yes of course! I'll do anything!" Travis said, bowing really hard once again.
'That worked out better than I expected! Now I have a disposable human pawn that I can do whatever the hell I want with! I am sure that these gangs might cause some problems for me in the future and this will greatly help me out without having the huge risk of Jayden going undercover to spy on them. The best part is that this is almost risk-free as he has no idea about my demon powers and him getting interrogated won't come with any information leading the school to think that demons exist!' Moby thought with a sinister smile.
