The Devouring Demon replied, “Alright. As long as you help me purify my soul and eliminate the other consciousnesses within me, I swear to serve you.”
“That won’t be a problem.” James nodded.
The Ignis’ amazing flames were fully capable of purifying the Devouring Demon’s soul.
“You’re a powerful person. I’ll have to plant a sigil in the deepest part of your soul to prevent you from double crossing me. If you ever betray me, I’ll activate the sigil and obliterate your soul.”
“Wait, what?” The Devouring Demon hesitated.
Giving the terms some consideration, he nodded and said, “Fine, do it.”
He gave the deal a lot of thought and came to the conclusion that it was worth the sacrifice. Even if his soul was bound by a sigil, he would not die as long as he stayed loyal to Wyot. Once his soul was cleansed, he would gain complete control over his body and would not have to worry about being overthrown by the souls within him.
The Devouring Demon urged James. “Let’s get started with it.”
“Alright.” James nodded.
James briefly explained a number of precautions for the process. Then, he set up a time formation around the two of them. The Devouring Demon sat in a lotus position while James stood behind him.
“When the Ignis enters your body, it may singe your flesh a little. I’ll control its power to ensure you’re not completely incinerated. Meanwhile, you’ll need to safeguard your own soul during this process. The Ignis might damage it slightly, but it’ll be fine as long as you can protect it well.”
James explained the procedure.
“I’m ready.” The Devouring Demon took a deep breath. He was fully prepared for what was to come.
