Supreme Ruler Dena stared at Yuan, her eyes widening in surprise. Though she had offered to become his servant of her own accord not long ago, being asked by him now felt entirely different.
She opened her mouth only to close it without a response, repeating this several times, as if dumbstruck by it.
Supreme Ruler Grant and Lev stared at her with puzzled faces, wondering why she was suddenly hesitant on accepting Yuan’s blood when she’d asked for it recently.
After a moment of silence, Supreme Ruler Dena closed her eyes and sighed, "If I am going to prove myself, I must do it alone, or it’d be pointless. I also don’t want to hear any excuses from her later, so I cannot accept your blood now."
"..."
Yuan fell silent for a brief moment before a small smile tugged at his lips.
"For some reason, I knew you’d say something like that," he said, not surprised by her rejection in the slightest.
"Although it’s a reckless—even foolish thing to do, I respect your resolution."
Supreme Ruler Dena silently nodded before turning to the woman.
"I am ready to play your game," she said.
"Good luck, little girl."
The woman extended her arm toward Supreme Ruler Dena, and at her command, the overwhelming mass of poison surged forth, instantly engulfing her petite figure.
"Ahh!"
Supreme Ruler Dena immediately screamed in agony. While the poison normally caused no pain when absorbed gradually, this was an entirely different matter, as she had just been forced to endure over a thousand years’ worth of the Demon God’s Ordeal in a single instant.
For Lev, who could only survive a few weeks in Death Paradise before his evolution, this amount would’ve instantly killed him... thousands of times, at that.
As for Supreme Ruler Grant, who could easily survive a few hundred years, it would also instantly kill him over a dozen times at once.
Supreme Ruler Dena’s screaming lasted only a few seconds before she fell silent, as if she’d perished.
"Did she die already?" The woman wondered aloud in a somewhat disappointed voice. "I had a little expectation for her, considering her talents as an incomplete being."
Soon, the last traces of condensed poison vanished into Supreme Ruler Dena’s body.
Her body went limp, and she began to fall from the sky like a lifeless doll.
Seeing this, Yuan went to catch her body.
Upon examining her body, he was relieved to know that she was still alive. However, the poison also hadn’t been fully consumed, so her life was still in danger.
"She’s still alive? I guess I had underestimated her a little," the woman suddenly remarked. "But let’s see if she can make it to the end."
"Why are you calling her incomplete?" Yuan asked her.
The woman stared at him in silence for a brief moment before responding, "I guess I can entertain you for a bit since you’ll be staying with me for an eternity soon."
Then, she continued, "The vast majority of people in this world haven’t yet fully completed their transformation, hence why they are incomplete."
"And judging by your sense of superiority, I can assume that you are a complete demon, right?" Yuan asked.
The woman offered a silent smile.
