[ Mutation has no accumulated enough Demonic Aura. ]

[ s ability cannot be fully exerted! ]

[ Incompletely replicates the Authority of the target! ]

The first thing that came to mind was that I could take away Yurias Demonic Aura after I made her feel better.

Though, I wasnt planning on using it here.

Its way too early to use this.

Originally, I was saving it to use on Faenol, but this was an emergency, there was no other choice.

Revealing my hand like this was better than letting the Purple Devil go berserk at least

Like, I could always get the Demonic Aura back by leashing Yuria and dragging her to Mister Angels.

[You have no more conscience left at this point, huh?]

Okay, look, even if I sugarcoated my words, it wouldnt change the action itself!

Besides, it should be fine, as long as I didnt enjoy the process!

[Its over for you. Youre way too gone at this point.]

[I dont think this is because of some kind of influence by your race change. Your personality is just becoming shittier.]

Okay, cool, now shut up.

Ignoring Calibans words, I strode into the classroom.

[But, a Devils still a Devil, I guess. Are you trying to tell me this aura is incomplete?]

From inside the amulet, such a sentence flowed out.

He probably said such a thing after witnessing the scene unfolding in my surroundings.

White aura flowed out of my chest, filling the entire space. Influenced by it, the students had dazed looks.

Dozens of them stood still and upright, as if they had fainted while standing.

Due to the characteristics of this School, those students must be aiming to be Battle Priests. In other words, some of them should have stronger resistance towards this kind of mental interference compared to students of other Schools..

Yet, even they had lost control of their minds.

The White Devils Authority, Enthrallment, gave its user the ability to exercise control over the mind of the target.

If they were at the level of a Venerable Monk, or a high-ranking Battle Priest, whose very nature were to discipline ones mind, they might not succumb to this level of Aura. But because they were merely students, even this incomplete Aura was enough to captivate them.

I could ask these guys to do anything right now and they would comply.

Alright. Attention.

I clapped my hands to shift their focus to me.

Their dazed eyes simultaneously concentrated towards my face.

Forget everything youve seen here. Got it?

With those words

A white aura briefly flared in everyones eyes.

This meant they recognized my command.

Good. Now, disperse quietly.

Shortly after I said this, everyone left the classroom in an orderly fashion.

Almost as if nothing had happened.

[Is that all? Are you sure itll be okay?]

What?

Was there something that wasnt okay about this?

[This kind of memory erasure can be reversed later if someone tries hard enough. Since theyre Battle Priests, they should be familiar with purification rituals. This kind of thing is very risky and]

What?

[Huh?]

We each exchanged such puzzled noises.

It felt like we were not quite on the same page.

What are you on about? Let me remind you, this is a Devils Authority, okay?

[Okay, look, Ive seen others use similar abilities to this before. All of them could easily be broken through, you know?]

Ah.

I get it.

This guy thought that what I did was ordinary brainwashing or hypnosis. Well, it did seem similar to those, I guess.

And he was right, those kinds of things were easy to break and using it carried a high risk.

However, despite it being incomplete, this was still a Devils Authority.

This isnt brainwashing or hypnosis, theyre just following my orders because they like me.

In the first place, the abilitys name was Enthrallment.

They retained their memories of everything, they just followed everything I said because they liked me so much.

This ability wasnt as simple as me making them forget something because I told them so. It was that they chose to listen to my request because I wanted them to forget.

And they werent even aware of this happening.

[What is that even supposed to mean?]

It means, you dont need to worry about the aftermath.

By the way, they wouldnt just forget everything that happened here, theyd also actively cover up the evidence to prevent rumors from spreading, silence anyone who knew about this, and even if they were tortured, they wouldnt speak of it until they die.

She excitedly threw those words with a joyful voice.

Her pupils sparkled as if stardust were falling from them. It was an unimaginable expression considering her usual demeanor.

She was like a large loyal dog meeting its owner after years of separation.

Hey, hey, stop!

Of course, no matter how dog-like she was, it was still way too excessive for her to actually lick my face. Seriously, put your tongue away!

As I backed away, startled, Seras, undeterred, spread her legs wide while embracing me like an industrial vise.

It was as if she was a small child clinging to a grown adult.

As if she never wanted to let go. As if she wanted to be even closer to me.

Of course, my physical strength wasnt great enough to properly withstand a full-grown woman charging at me with all her weight.

As soon as I staggered and fell, Seras covered me as if she had been waiting for this moment. With no room to retreat, I had no choice but to be at her mercy as she relentlessly licked my face.

Seeing one of the continents top assassins doing this kind of thing would certainly be a horrifying sight, but it was probably not of her own will.

To explain, uh

Her behavior was heavily influenced by the personal tastes of the Purple Devil.

[What? If this is all she does when she goes berserk, then she doesnt look dangerous at all.]

While my face was getting smeared with saliva, Caliban said such words.

This isnt her going berserk.

As I replied to him, I activated a skill.

[ Misc. ]

Current Fused Devil Fragment Amount: 1

Stage 1 Fusion Progress: 3%

Corruption Progress: 1%

Look at this.

The Fragment Fusion Progress was at its lowest. Even the Corruption Progress was lingering at 1%

This was a phenomenon that could only be seen with the Purple Devil.

Even if she didnt go berserk, she was able to express her will through the Vessel.

This shit was scary as fuck.

Even the White Devil, THE Devil of Obsession herself didnt rush out, suppress Yurias personality and do whatever she wanted.

Sure, they were Vessels and all, but once they got seriously entangled with a Devil, a mental breakdown would definitely occur, it was just a matter of time. If the Vessels personality was forcibly suppressed like this by the Devils will, the Vessel could actually become a vegetable, unable to act nor think.

And if the Vessel ended up like that, it would be a huge loss for the Devil, as they could only exert their influence in the Material Realm through them as a medium.

However

This crazy Devil disregarded any of that and just rushed in.

When thinking about such a reckless tendency, where she consistently meddled for me, there couldnt be anything more terrifying than that.

Seras.

As such

What I had to do here was quite clear.

I needed to lay some groundwork to control that tendency.

Yes, Master! Just tell me to do anything! Anything! Command me! Boss me around however you want! Anything I can do, Ill do, so!

This is a command. Dont come within a 5 meter radius from me.

Seras words were cut off abruptly.
