Hearing what Kraya said, Rhodes stopped what he was doing and turned to her side.
"So, how do you want to torture me?" she asked softly, slowly stroking her hand across Rhode's body.
"I just killed an abyss demon, doesn't it matter?" Rhodes asked, seemingly thinking of something.
Judging from the expression of the Abyss Lord, she didn't seem to care about the dead Abyss Demon at all, which also made Rhodes a little confused.
The previous abyss demon obviously belonged to Kraya's subordinates, but she didn't seem to care at all about the death of the abyss demon.
Not long ago, after Rhodes killed the abyss demon, Kraya asked other demons to send all the things belonging to that demon to his tent, which undoubtedly made Rhodes realize something.
"Of course it doesn't matter. If you kill him, everything about him will be yours. This is Lord Hela's long-standing order." Kraya replied.
Rhodes nodded thoughtfully. He also knew something about the habits of these demons.
"Are you just going to watch like this?" Seeing Rhodes falling silent, Kraya urged impatiently, "There is a knife hanging over there. If you want to use it, you can use it."
Following Kraya's words, Rhodes looked at the knife hanging in the corner of the tent, but he just shook his head and refocused his eyes on the abyss lord in front of him.
"Do you like being tortured? Or is this what the King of Lust means?" As if thinking of something, Rhodes asked proactively.
Facing the seemingly defenseless Kraya, Rhodes stretched out his hands and grabbed her neck.
"We are...pleasing the King of Desire...the more pain we feel, the more pleasure the King will have...ahem...this is also the meaning of our existence..."
Her neck was pinched tightly, and Kraya's words became intermittent, accompanied by continuous coughing.
Even so, she still showed an expression of enjoyment and squinted her eyes slightly.
Perhaps as she said, everything she did and all the pain she endured was to please the King of Lust.
"Thank you for the information you provided. You will join forces with me in the next trial. I mean, your body."
When Rhode's cold words came to her ears, Kraya was shocked. She opened her slightly squinted eyes and saw Rhode's emotionless eyes.
"You... ugh... what are you going to do? No..."
At this time, Kraya finally realized that something was wrong. She wanted to get rid of Rhodes' control, but her body had no strength, so she couldn't do it. Rhode's hand was tightly strangled on her neck.
Slowly, her breath became weaker and weaker, and her body softened.
…………
"You killed a fifth-level creature."
"You gained 3700 experience points!"
"The [Pleasing Ceremony] is terminated, you will not be able to obtain the rewards of the King of Lust, and all your reduced attributes will be returned."
"Due to the termination of the [Pleasing Ceremony], you have aroused the dissatisfaction of the King of Lust, and you have an extra layer of [Mark of Lust] on your body."
…………
Noting the contents of the system log, Rhodes breathed a deep sigh of relief.
After killing the fifth-level Abyss Lord, Rhodes gained a fair amount of experience points. More importantly, all of his reduced attributes were also returned at this moment.
What surprised Rhodes was the last item in the system log, [Mark of Lust].
In addition to the prompt about [Mark of Lust] appearing in the system log, Rhodes could not check the specific effect of [Mark of Lust] in the properties panel or elsewhere.
He shook his head. Since he could not check the effect of [Mark of Lust] now, he simply ignored it and turned his attention to the dead Kraya.
Waves of hunger came from Rhode's body. Under the influence of this hunger, Rhodes felt that it took a lot of effort to take a step. Relying on his own strong will, Rhodes was always enduring.
The contract belonging to the Gluttonous King affected Rhodes at this moment and had a profound negative impact on him.
Ever since Rhodes arrived at Kraya's camp, he had felt hungry. Now, after all other troubles have been solved, Rhodes can no longer endure it.
Hanging on the wall of the camp was a knife polished from stone. The blade was very rough and the edge was not very sharp, but it was the only tool that Rhodes could use at the moment.
In the eyes of those abyss demons, this may be just a small knife, but in the eyes of the smaller Rhodes, this is a wide knife, which is very inconvenient to swing.
Rhodes took off the stone knife and started cutting with it just as Kraya wanted.
Looking at the piece of meat in his hand, Rhodes wanted to use the flames near hell to heat it up, but some kind of touch from his bloodline stopped him from thinking about it.
What Rhodes now has is not a human body, but a real demon body. Coupled with the improvement in digestion ability in [Beelzebub's Contract], Rhodes can consume even fresh flesh and blood. It devours.
Following the bloodline and king's contract, Rhodes began to increase his strength, and the way to increase his strength was to eat.
At the same time, various prompts began to appear in the system log.
…………
"You are eating food..."
"You feel less hungry and more full..."
"The contract characteristic [Glutious Desire] has been detected. Based on the amount of food, you have gained an increase in attribute values."
"You gain strength +2..."
"You gain speed +1..."
"You gain Constitution +3..."
"[Gluttony Evidence] detected, your satiety remains at 30%..."
…………
Like a wild beast, Rhodes finished his meal.
After finishing eating, Rhodes felt a significant change in his body.
The most obvious thing was that he felt that the stone knife in his hand had become smaller. The reason for this result was actually that Rhodes' body had become larger.
Although he still maintained the appearance of a little monster, including the unique dark yellow skin, Derrod's body had swelled significantly at this time.
After eating the abyss demon that was much taller than him, the flesh and blood belonging to Kraya became a part of Rhodes' body. This not only improved Rhodes' attributes, but also made his body taller and his shoulders thicker.
Due to the influence of [Gluttony Evidence], Rhodes, who had just finished eating, did not feel full at all in his belly. Instead, he felt hungry again. One Abyss Lord was simply not enough for him to swallow.
