After turning the family from slaves into servants, everyone was startled by Leo's ability to transform, as we all talked Freya asked if her daughter and son-in-law were given the title [ Servant of Twilight (Zenos) ].
"Did you two happen to receive the title [ Servant of the Twilight (Zenos) ]?" (Freya)
"Yes." (Caryna)
"I got it too." (Leo)
"(So their title is different from the others.)" (I)
"(Ibuki's title is subordinate, Érica's title is slave, the brothers' title is sons, Kira and Diana's title are Relatives.)" (I)
"(And now comes this new title, but at least it shows that it worked.)" (I)
"Did you guys also get any Nolan and Alice titles?" (I)
"Unfortunately not my lord." (Alice)
"I didn't get any titles either." (Nolan)
"Maybe you didn't get it because the master wasn't the one who changed you, maybe if the master does to you what he did to those three, you will also receive a title." (Érica)
"I'm not going to do that, it's been hard enough to stand up after doing this with these three and I still have Sophia to take care of." (I)
"Wouldn't it be better for tomorrow then master?" (Diana)
"Diana is right Dad, don't push yourself too hard." (Irius)
"It's just a little bit of pain and exhaustion, I can handle it, it's best to get this over with, don't worry so much." (I)
"Sophia come to me." (I)
Everyone else backed away from me a little while Sophia approached me with a limp, as soon as she was in front of me she knelt down.
"Is ready?" (I)
"Yes, my Sir." (Sophia)
I activate both my Aura abilities and my Blood Servant ability at the same time, just as previously my auras intertwine and make each other stronger, I still have enough strength to force these Auras to affect only me and the Sophia.
Soon my mana and Ki leave my body when my Auras come in contact with Sophia, then drops of my blood come out of every pore of my body and float around me and Sophia, it didn't take long for my Auras, mana, Ki and blood began to enter Sophia's body, her body was surrounded by a black and red glow.
Ding!
<[ The individual submitted to you willingly ]>
.

<[ Choose a power to grant her ]>
"(My head is hurting a lot right now, dammit.)" (I)
Once again a big list of all the skills, bloodlines, and powers that make them up that I have pops into my mind making my headache.
If I remember correctly she is a warrior who fights without weapons, she only uses martial arts to fight, so there is only one skill I can give her.
I choose to grant the ability [ Martial Art Fist of Chaos: 1 ].
Ding! Ding!
<[ Grant of power completed ]>
.

<[ Her skill leveled up [ Reinforce weak subordinates: 1> 2 ] ]>
Before long the light starts to fade and I can see Sophia again, she has white hair tied back and golden eyes, her height is six feet, her skin is brown and her body is as well trained as you would expect from a warrior.
There is no longer any scar to hide how beautiful she is, even I am amazed at how beautiful she is, her body is well trained but she has less muscle than Diana, she is still kneeling on the floor looking at her hands, so she puts a hand on her face where there used to be a scar in place of one of her eyes, it seems she wants to confirm that she has recovered the lost eye.
"AAHHHH!!!" (Sophia)
She gets up at once letting out a scream into the air full of anger, hate, sadness, regret, frustration, and happiness, at least that's what I can feel about the Aura that left her body when she started screaming, this Aura fills the hall, your Aura is full of unlimited fighting will.
I don't interrupt her, I imagine this is her way of letting go of all the emotions she was holding inside herself, I would like Alice to do the same to see if she can leave the darkness inside her behind, that was a scream of release.
In a few seconds her aura disappears along with her scream, my auras long ago returned inside me after she completed her awakening, Sophia's Aura didn't hurt anyone, even though it filled the whole room, no one was hurt, it seems that she has good control of her Aura, maybe you can learn something from her.
After her scream, Sophia kneels on one knee and takes an oath in a voice full of will and determination that she didn't possess before.
"Today I Sophia by ancestral vows made before the World Tree swear to be the sword and shield of Zenos, may Dravos God of Spirits be a witness!" (Sophia)
"..." (I)
"(Her her oath is very similar to the one Kira once took to me, but some words are different, it must be something from Elf culture.)" (I)
Just like Kira in the past, she looks like she's going to stay on her knees until I say something.
"Stand up Sophia." (I)
"Yes my master." (Sophia)
As soon as she stands up and looks me in the eye I see eyes full of wonder and respect for me.
"Ah!" (I)
"Master!" (Sophia/Diana/Érica)
"Dad!" (Irina/Irius)
When I tried to step forward my knee failed, the moment I moved was when I realized how exhausted I was, the pain I'm feeling now is three times what it's feeling when I used only my two Auras on Freya's family, it seems the blood servant skill makes me worse than I expected.
Before I hit the ground Kira appears in a blur beside me and catches me.
"We told you to rest master, are you alright?" (Kira)
"I'm just a haaa... a little tired haaa... nothing a haaa... a night's sleep doesn't help." (I)
"That was intense, you're not just physically exhausted, you spent all your Mana and Ki with these four, especially with this Dark Elf, not only that, in the end, you used a lot of your blood too." (Byakko)
"This skill is a double-edged sword for you." (Byakko)
"This is not the time Byakko, go back to sleep like you were doing until now." (Kira)
"Help me to the living room, please." (I)
"Let me help too." (Sophia)
Sophia and Kira led me into the room off the hall where they placed me in a patroness while everyone sat on the sofas on either side of the armchair.
After taking a breath to catch my breath, I turn to everyone to speak.
"Érica and Kira, there's no need to hide from them anymore." (I)
"As the master wishes." (Kira)
"I guess we don't need to hide things from each other now since we're all in the same boat." (Érica)
Kira deactivates her Illusion Spirit Ring going back to her Gray Elf appearance and Byakko who was invisible to the others shows herself to everyone and sits on Kira's shoulder.
Érica has deactivated her demonic transformation magic, a large amount of black energy comes out of the tattoo on her shoulder running all over her body, her skin has returned to purplish-blue, her eyes red, the little horns have grown on her head, a tail has grown from her back and wings ripped the back of his clothes.
"A demon!" (Nolan)
"..." (Alice)
"Now that's a surprise." (Freya)
"A Demon and a Gray Elf, as expected of the one I swore to serve." (Sophia)
The reactions were more diverse than I imagined, the only one who reacted with fear was Nolan who was staring at Érica, he was shaking with fear, besides him Caryna looked a little scared of Érica, but was paying more attention to Kira, she was watching curiously for Kira.
Leo and Alice didn't show any reaction, it seems they don't care about the race of others, Freya at first showed surprise seeing Érica, but soon her attention was focused on Kira, what I saw in her eyes was different from the others, it seemed to be nostalgia.
Sophia for some reason was proud of me for seeing Érica and Kira.
"For those of you who are scared of Érica, let me explain, she only became a Demon a couple of months ago, before that she was Human, so she has no connection with the Demon Race." (I)
"Yes, it's only been two months since the master turned me into a Demon." (Érica)
While I tried to calm those who were afraid of Érica, she said something that made the situation worse, now they're looking at me scared, Freya and Sophia looked at me curiously, it seems I'll have to explain things.
"Look it's not like you guys are thinking, she transformed because of the same abilities I used on Sophia, one of those abilities uses the darkness inside a person to give her more power." (I)
"In Érica's case there was a lot of darkness, so my ability ended up turning her into a Demon." (I)
"That's why you don't need to worry, it's not like you can choose who will become a Demon, as I didn't see much darkness in your eyes I thought nothing much would happen and I was right." (I)
It seems my explanation has calmed things down a bit, now let's have a conversation about what to do from now on.
