Both Ivan and Artyom had separate dinners where they made to feed their fathers and the elders in their factions the Devil Pellets.
It seemed a normal dinner to all those involved and when the pellets were dropped within their goblets and served along with wine rich in cultivation resources that would at Least add an iota to their progress, things were truly underway.
Since the pellets were within them and had taken root, the passive abilities kicked in and they become the root of Hal's takeover.
Progress was slow and it practically crept along but eventually, every single member of the Doxon family has ingested at least one Devil pellet.
And only when she was sure, the first part of the plan was successful did Arya activate the pellets and the second part of the plan began.
You see, Arya was an impressive Alchemist and definitely more skilled than Hal but she was still not good enough.
