In the shadows of his spirit palace, the sleeping Asura was sitting in front of the devouring monument, his eyes reading through the first stage passage with a serious look while jotting things down on a piece of paper his mind conjured up.
'Can I not change how the power of devouring works during those acts... Maybe a way that can benefit my loved ones a little more...'
"What are you doing this late, letting your parallel mind do the resting while your main mind is in this lonely place?" Brian's raspy voice sounded as Asura turned to him slowly with a focused gaze.
'Oh... it's Brian. I wondered who was lingering around me.'
"I wanted to see if there was a method that would stop this happening in the future. It is far too tempting, and I hate getting these benefits from doing those acts with my loved ones."
His face seemed downcast, "it reminds me of my past life's shame... I don't want to become like HER!"
