Since the situation had occurred in the blink of an eye, I couldn’t stop Samuel’s Gluttony from devouring my arm.
No.
It would be more accurate to say that I didn’t feel the need to stop it.
‘……I don’t feel any pain.’
My flesh felt like it was tingling slightly, but I didn’t feel my bones being crushed or my flesh being torn.
It felt more like my arm was being swallowed rather than being chewed.
Gulp, gulp.
Thorns that were sucking on my right arm.Before long, countless thorns sprouted and covered my arm.
I tried to pull them off, but they felt like they had already become one with my arm, like parasites that had finished parasitizing me.
What in the world is this situation…….
While I was staring at the thorns with bewildered eyes.
Swish-.
Before I knew it, the thorns that had sprouted on my right arm had disappeared without a trace.
They had seeped into my arm.
Leaving only a single thorn embedded in my right wrist.
“Wh, what’s going on?”
Fron’s voice, filled with confusion, could be heard.
I didn’t know what was going on either, so all I could do was shrug my shoulders.
I wondered if there had been any changes to my body, so I opened my status window before my eyes.
【 Arsene Adel 】: Race - [ Half Demon ]
: Tendency - [ Chaos ]
: Talent - [ Position Exchange ‘Ⅲ’ ]
: Trait - [ Interest ] [ Absorption ] [ Killing Intent Ⅲ ] [ Darkness Ⅲ ] [ Mana Manipulation ] [ Eye of Arrogance ] [ Telekinesis ] [ Sword Lacquer ] [ Samuel ]
: Mana - [ 4301 ⇒ 2631 ]
It seems Adel’s power is being withdrawn.
But it hadn’t disappeared completely, and some of it remained.
The Pitch Black Trait that had changed back to the Darkness Trait.
But.
Its stage had increased.
It wasn’t just the Darkness Trait.
Including Position Exchange, the Killing Intent Trait had also increased by one stage.
That was when.
Rustle-.
I felt an itch as if something was being written on the paper in my arms.
I quietly took out the paper.
Since the information paper wasn’t visible to other students except for me, it didn’t matter if I showed it.
The sentence written on the information paper.
『 The price was judged to be slightly excessive. 』
『 A portion of the power will be inherited by the Creator. 』
I couldn't help but narrow my eyes.
He judged that the price was too high.
Apparently, I was supposed to lose something precious in exchange for borrowing 20% of Adel's power.
However, nothing had changed in my body.
...What did he take?
Even though he went against the providence and lent me his power, he still demanded an excessive price.
Did I have such a treasure?
'It's a good thing, though….'
My stats, mana, and even my talent had all leveled up, so it was definitely something to be happy about.
However.
The fact that he had taken something I didn't know about worried me.
I felt the need to check my body once I returned to the Demon Realm.
And the most noticeable thing was.
'That's….'
Samuel's name, which had been consumed by his ability, was clearly present in the status window.
'What happened?'
Why was Samuel's name written in the status window?
I was completely confused when I heard Samuel's voice.
[ I'm not dead yet. ]
I looked around in surprise.
But all I could see were the other A-class students. Samuel's voice was not the only one I heard. The students also looked confused.
"Where are you talking from?"
"I think it's here."
Luna asked, and Fron answered.
Her gaze was fixed on the thorn that had sprouted on my right wrist.
As the students' gazes focused on it,
[ Correct answer. ]
"......!!"
A voice came from the thorn attached to my wrist.
It was definitely Samuel's voice.
I blinked and asked the thorn a question.
"Are you Mr. Samuel?"
[ Yes, I'll have to stay in your right arm for the time being. ]
Staying in my arm?
I couldn't understand the current situation.
As I looked at him with a questioning gaze, the thorn, presumably Samuel, continued.
[ I used up too much power. I would have died even if I had been healed in that state. ]
I nodded.
I agreed with Samuel.
Even with Luna's healing, it would have been difficult for him to avoid death.
Even if he had been lucky enough to survive, he would have had to live as a cripple for the rest of his life.
[ My current form requires the least amount of power. I'll probably be able to return to my original body in a couple of months. ]
To summarize, he consumed his own body with Gluttony, reducing his size.
As time passes and his strength recovers, he will be able to return to his original state.
However.
“Why did you parasitize my arm?”
[…….]
Thorn remained silent at my question.
I narrowed my eyes at this.
It was clear that he had done something that did not benefit me.
As I glared at him, Thorn finally opened his mouth.
[……In order to rebuild my body, I need to consume a certain amount of mana every day.]
“So you parasitized me to suck my mana?”
[ Yes, you share a dorm room with me, and your mana capacity is far greater than the other students. ]
