96: Chapter 89 Gnawing_2 96: Chapter 89 Gnawing_2 Don’t mention killing other races; even when it came to killing his own kind, people he knew, he wouldn’t bat an eyelid. He believed that if he showed any desire to escape or to attack, he would not have a second chance. “Eat him.” Gaven dragged the Dog Demon over to Klay’s corpse and coldly added, “Use your gnawing ability.” Upon hearing the last sentence, the Dog Demon shivered, knowing it had been dealt a losing hand and had met a real master. This young man knew a great deal about its species. The Dog Demon dared not hesitate, propping its upper body up with its two broken limbs, as magic power began to surge. “Don’t harbor any delusions. Believe me, with two front legs missing, neither the Anywhere Door nor the Flash Spell will let you escape my pursuit. Your species’ spells are neither faster than my sword nor faster than my psychic ability.” Gaven warned lightly as he swung his longsword effortlessly. The Dog Demon knew that what he said was true. Not daring to have any crooked thoughts, its already grotesque mouth opened to an extreme and started to wildly gnaw and tear at Klay’s corpse. The speed of gnawing and biting was significantly slower without the aid of its front paws, but the effect was not diminished. Life essence was forcibly extracted from Klay’s corpse by the Dog Demon. This was where the Dog Demon’s most powerful ability lay. It could gnaw on the corpses of humanoid beings and absorb their life essence for its own use, gaining even greater strength. As Klay’s life essence was absorbed, the Dog Demon’s stumps writhed and tendrils of flesh began to grow, as if a Regeneration Technique had been performed. The bodies gnawed by the Dog Demon could not be brought back by ordinary resurrection, and even powerful Wish Spells, Miracle Spells, or Complete Resurrection Spells had only a fifty percent chance of working on them. Hmm. Klay definitely would not be resurrected, not even by Wish Spells or Miracle Spells. Because when the Dog Demon was gnawing at his head, a faint wailing spirit was swallowed whole into its belly. The soul had been eaten by the Dog Demon. Unless the gods themselves intervened, mortal spells would no longer have any effect on it. This young man named Gaven was ruthless, not only robbing people of their lives and their wealth but also not sparing their souls. If the Dog Demon had known Andy was dealing with such a tough character, it would not have encouraged Andy to entertain crooked thoughts. Following such a formidable person and shouting their praises would have been the correct choice. The Dog Demon criticized Gaven internally as it used its gnawing skill. Ow! The Dog Demon howled in pain. Just now, while it was focused on gnawing, Gaven had swiftly chopped off its not yet fully regrown forelimbs with two slices of his sword. Damn it, this young man was too cautious, not giving any chance at all. This was no Half-Elf; this was a demon clad in human skin—none of the demons were as cunning and vicious as him. “True name,” Gaven asked leaning on his longsword. “Andrew,” the Dog Demon obediently replied, knowing that since Gaven was aware of the Dog Demon’s gnawing, he would certainly know about their high intelligence. With a look of ‘you’re trying to fool a fool’, Gaven stared at the Dog Demon, “If you try to deceive me again, I’ll chop you up bit by bit. Searᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The true names of devils in the Book of True Names—if you deceive me again, I will slice you up piece by piece.” The Dog Demon fell silent. What a joke, how could it possibly hand over the True Name of Devils from the book? Once you have control over the True Name of Devils, wouldn’t you have to serve as a slave for generations, never to turn over a new leaf? Better to die than to be a slave. Hiss! Gaven put his words into action and made a cut at the Dog Demon’s amputated limb. This time, prepared for it, the Dog Demon didn’t scream but shivered. It responded to Gaven with silence, resolved that even if it were truly killed, it would never reveal its devil’s true name. The true name is the origin of all demons and devils; once known by others, they would be controlled and unable to defy any command—even death, true death. Under normal circumstances, it was impossible to completely kill a demon in the material world, or to put it another way, one could only kill their body, not their soul, which would return to the Abyssal home to reshape the body with the power of the Abyss. It was the same for devils, though they would return to Hell. If someone controlled their true name, even if they returned home, they could be dragged back using that name. Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Gaven made several more cuts, and the Dog Demon remained silent. “Good, tough guy.” Gaven gave the Dog Demon a thumbs-up and said, “I hope you continue to be as tough as you are now. Anna, cast healing spells.” At the mention of healing spells, the Dog Demon’s face involuntarily changed. Casting healing spells on a devil from an evil plane, was this something humans could come up with? “Here it comes.” Anna, who seemed a bit bored, crisply responded and came running over. Her round, large eyes carried a hint of confusion, “Mr. Gaven, is it appropriate to cast healing spells on him?” In her life, she had never heard of anyone casting a healing spell on a devil. “How will you know without trying? Rest assured, the effect will be better than you imagine.” “Alright, I’ll give it a try.” Anna trusted Gaven completely; if he had said so, there must be no mistake.
