"Ok, ok, we will listen to your dark past later, but we have more important stuff to discuss for now…" I waved my hand as I said…

While I was somewhat interested in hearing the story of how he was approached by the demons and how he ended up being the 'Corruption Processor' of this base, it wasn't exactly the time to do that now, at least everything could be postponed till we were out of this demon base…

After all, such a huge occurence like the 'Demonic Sovereign Sacrifice' has taken place here, who knew if it somehow acted as an alert to other demons or maybe opened some portal to another base… After witnessing this witchcraft method, it was hard to believe that everything was truly in my grasp…

"Huh? Who said I wanted to tell you anything to begin with?! I was just trying to be transparent so that you would stop oppressing me with that strange ability of yours…" the sprout human rolled his eyes once again, trying to act as if he was forced to do so…

'Whatever…'

Thanks to the bad news that the sprout human elaborated on, it was obvious that the only ones who might be able to survive and return back to human once the 'Demonic Sovereign Sacrifice' was executed were those who originally had the dark attribute as humans, which meant that this method was pretty much useless in most cases…

Dark attributed humans were already as rare as dual or even triple attributed humans in both the records of the Light and Nature Domains, which was why I didn't really consider the possibility of the sprout human being a dark attributed one at the very beginning, leaving it as the least plausible reason… 

Sadly, according to this, it meant that most demonified humans were likely to have died if they were to be in the same situation that the sprout human had encountered, instead of returning to their former nature like he did…

As such, discussing it further would be of no use for now, since there was another important thing that I needed to understand…

"Let's leave aside the talk about the 'Sacrifice' for now, what I want to know next is... How you managed to lure the other three here to do so that they could act as your keys…?"

I did manage to deduce that they were probably affected by something that was hidden within the items they received, but I still didn't know its nature and why was I able to neglect its effects without any trouble, so maybe this sprout human would be able to satisfy my curiosity about it…

"Oh, you mean the 'Ancient Betwitching mark'?" 

"If that's what you call it by, then yes… I'm curious about how it works…"

In order to understand how I was able to bypass its effect, it was obviously necessary to understand its mechanism, which seemed that it wouldn't be that hard considering that the sprout human seemed to know a bit about it, judging from his reaction…

"Well, it's supposed to be an old hidden weapon of the demons, something that came from the old war times, it's called a mark, but its name doesn't do justice to its actual form at all…" the sprout human smiled awkwardly as he replied…


'Old war times…?'

If I wasn't completely wrong with my assumptions, then this was probably referring to the Era where the powerhouses that left their legacies in the gate that lead to the bases fought against the demons and suppressed them, only to lose in the end due to an unknown entity's intervention…

"It's actually a strange breed of a parasitic bug which feeds on mental energy and causes mental disorders, it's used to feed a certain set of information, orders and memories to its victims as it continues to feed on their mental energies overtime…"

'It was a bug…?'

I had actually imagined several techniques or even strange enchanted items of different sorts, but a living being was truly out of my expectations…

'Then…'

"Then… How is it hard to notice this parasite…? Also, does it have any weaknesses?"

"It's a part of its nature to be stealthy as it's actually a very tiny organism that can't be discerned using normal human sight nor normal human perception, as for its weaknesses…"

'A microorganism…? If so, then it does make sense...'

While the perception of my 'Sensory Area' was normally beyond impeccable, I was pretty sure that it still didn't allow me to be as accurate as a microscope to sense stuff at the nanoscale or something that is possibly even smaller than that…

"There are a few, but I only know one as I naturally wasn't told all that is there to know about it… it dies if it tries to parasitise on a host with too strong of a mental energy, it's one of its deficits that came along with the fact that it's very small that it can die from eating too much…" 

'So that was why…'

I already had one of the possibilities in my mind that my immunity to whatever the possession method was, originated from the fact that I had a stronger mental energy when compared to the other three, but I didn't know the actual details behind it till now…

"Then why are these three sleeping till this point…? Is it a side effect from being a host to the parasitic glutton of a bug?"

If this was the case, then this problem needed an immediate solution… or else it would smell trouble for me…

"I had actually already removed the mark from them long ago as soon as they entered since we still needed them alive to open the path outside for us, however, it's indeed as you said, they are currently under the side effect of being a former host to the 'Ancient Bewitching Mark', they would normally have been treated from it by the Shaman, but your entrance here kind of changed everything…"
