Chapter 82
The reason, the possessed Björn asked for the human to gather magical beast corpse was because he wanted to create an army, this way of creating an army has its own advantage and disadvantage which is that the people transformed in the process will have a lot mental problem, like decrease IQ, acting like beast and having an unusual taste for flesh and blood, as for the advantage, the process is quick and if you have enough strong will to hold own the crazy thought, then congratulation you are welcomed into the stage of those who can become stronger. So, in a way, the demon was helping the humans by introducing to them a new system of power. As for the consequences, it is up to the humans to bear. If possible, the demon would rather sacrifice every human in this settlement to the abyss in exchange for abyssal demon who would act like his soldiers. But the demon doesn't really trust its own race, especially that there is a chance of the sacrifice attracting the attention of a stronger demon, who won't hesitate to kill him off at his now weakened state and take over job of taking over this world. Still this ceremony still has a risk of its own as it needs for him to introduce leak a bit of the abyss breath into the ceremony and that is also a risk of its own as any demon can pinpoint on that and gain access to this world. The human who walked out of the tent immediately gathered together, one of the humans who is Björn blood brother spoke up, "How do we do this, I volunteer to lead the hunting team as I am the best we have after my brother" One of the humans, spoke up "Olaf, are you really planning on following that demon's words, I hope you know that isn't your brother any longer" "Yes Olaf, why don't we use this opportunity to run, the demon surely can't keep any eye on us from inside the tent" Another human chimed in. Olaf, Björn brother spoke up with a serious expression on his face "I know that is no longer my brother, I would rather comply with the demon words that to disobey it. We can we run to if we escape, how long do you think it will take for that demon to conquer the whole sunny place, no one has even managed to put up a fight against that thing" "Even if we manage to run out from the sunny place, what awaits us is the cold icy weather when we won't even last a whole day before turning into ice, no place is safe for us so I would rather follow that demon and have a place to sleep and eat than being in a continuous run and fear of my life" Olaf said as he walked out from the group to pick out men who will go hunt with him. As for the humans he left behind, they all just stood in place with a look of thinking in their eyes, "He's right, following that demon is better than being against him, I would rather not be in the state of Finn over there" One of the humans said as he pointed at Finn who was the one sentenced to death by Björn. The group all looked at Finn, before they all shuddered at the same time, before sprinting away to join Olaf and immediately dig up the pool required of them. As for Finn, he stood outside the tent while whispering to himself "I don't want to die, I don't want to die" Continuously over and over again until something seemed to snap inside of him as he began running out from the settlement while screaming "I don't want to die"
