Chapter 112: Chapter 112: Army Of Liberation

Ignoring everything else, Aengus placed his hand on Ashter's lifeless body, preparing to cast Skill Absorption. His curiosity gnawed at him—would he be able to obtain Ashter's unique skill alongside the others?

The familiar system notifications flashed before him.

After multiple attempts, Aengus finally achieved what he had been hoping for.

"There's another category for unique Skills called 'Rare' as well?" Aengus felt intrigued.

Ashter's skill set, though impressive, paled in comparison to Aengus' monstrous abilities. His newly acquired Nullified Mental Attacks (Rare) was particularly useful, granting him immunity to mental assaults such as charms, enchantments, and hexes.

"Not bad," Aengus muttered, satisfied. While Ashter had been formidable, this victory proved just how much further Aengus had progressed on his path of strength.

Aengus's lips curved, "Yes, I do have some use for these bodies."

He had no qualms about demonstrating his abilities in front of her. After all, Bella already knew about both his System skills and his so-called "demonic" abilities. She had taken it in stride, seeing it as some kind of rare mutation from the Darkness core.

Aengus was slightly impressed that despite knowing the truth about his powers, Bella hadn't tried to manipulate or harm him. Instead, she stayed by his side, loyal and seemingly genuine in her affection.

"Could it be... she really does love me?" Aengus pondered seriously. Yet, no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't bring himself to feel anything in return.

Still, her actions had earned his trust, and from this point forward, he found himself willing to rely on her more.

Aengus looked thoughtfully at the nearly 300 human bodies.

He decided to use them to strengthen his subordinates since the dead bodies were of no use to him. Their skills were mediocre, and they couldn't be bred as monsters in the dimensional space either.

One by one, he called his chosen subordinates and merged them with the human bodies, giving them more human-like features and elevating their rank to Greater Demon.

Sen was also given the opportunity. He, like his sister, became a Greater Demon, though his skin took on a slightly human appearance while his features remained largely the same.

"Good for you, Sen," Sienna called out, congratulating him.

"Thanks, Sister," Sen replied, adjusting to his newfound strength.

Although the merge didn't grant them human skills, their physical strength improved significantly. Now, they just needed to practice their abilities more to fully use this power.

"That was incredible, Darling," Bella muttered in astonishment, her eyes locking onto his. "With this, you could even turn the dead wastes into useful materials. I'm impressed."

She smiled mischievously and added, "I'm really curious—what will our child be like? Will they have your powers or mine?" She thought smiling happily.

At the mention of a child with her, any normal human would have been excited, but Aengus looked into her eyes indifferently.
