Fortunately, Dorian was wearing a mask so the blood splashed on it, giving it a scary look. The demon laughed with a choked voice.

Dorian looked at it straight in the eyes and said "You… Alright, I'll hurt you a bit."

Dorian took out his [Sampau's Claw] and showed it to the demon who was still laughing. With a sudden slash, Dorian gouged out the demon's right eye, making it scream. Looks like living in hell didn't make it invulnerable to pain.

Dorian approached his dagger to the other eye, and finally the demon showed some fear. Then, putting down his dagger, Dorian took out the eye he had slashed open.

The demon screamed in pain and terror as its blinded eye was taken out of its orbit. Then, looking at the wide opened mouth, Dorian put the eye he took out in it.

The demon tried to spit it out, but as it was about to, Dorian used his hand to smack its shin, forcing its mouth shut. A part of its tongue got bitten off by the sharp teeth, and the eye was forced in.

The demon looked at Dorian with a begging look, as if it wanted him to finish it. Dorian tilted his head and asked "Don't you come from Hell? You should be used to pain. Whatever, I'm done with you."

Taking back his [Sampau's Claw], Dorian slashed open its left chest. Putting back his dagger, Dorian plunged his hand in its chest. He grabbed a beating object, a beating heart.

His grip around it tightened, and the heartbeat started increasing. The terror in the demon's eye started increasing.

Dorian suddenly pulled, tearing the heart out of the demon's chest, before showing it to the demon. The light in the demon's eye started to fade, but the pain in its eye didn't disappear even when its breath stopped.

Dorian suddenly received a notification:

[Congratulations for achieving a hidden objective! You have earned a new sub title!]

[You have killed a demon from Hell, you have been cursed by the High Demon Guntad!]

[Because you have achieved a hidden objective, your mission's completion rate has increased by a great amount.]

When he heard the first notification, Dorian was ecstatic, his Butcher Title had already helped him a lot so a new title would of course be welcomed.

But the second notification made his mood dive into hell. To be cursed by a High Demon, how unlucky could one be? If an adult Mid Demon could kill everyone in the city without any survivor, then how strong could a High Demon be? Could it directly wipe out the mountain itself?


But after thinking for a moment, Dorian understood that it was impossible, if such a powerful being were to chase personally after him he would die without even being able to retaliate, and what kind of game would force the player into an impossible position?

Though, this reinforced Dorian's conviction that he would return to this world later on, because for him the only way this cursed could really be used against him would be if demons regularly came to attack him, or the High Demon would come when he crosses a certain amount of attributes.

But either way, if he never comes back in this world, then there is no point in this curse.

Finally, the third notification helped his mood get better. If there was a completion rate to his mission, then his earlier assumptions that perfectly clearing this mission would indeed give out more than if he did it following the script.

Moreover, if there is a difference in completion rate then there would be a difference in rewards, and getting more rewards means he would be able to get stronger faster, and thus do better than others in his next world.

Dorian could already see a pattern would appear in the future, the strong would get stronger and the weak would get weaker. If someone does poorly in his first mission, then he won't get enough rewards and won't be able to get stronger, but the next mission will be even more difficult, resulting in poorer results and this would go on in a vicious circle until the Dreamer dies.

But Dorian also wondered what would this hidden achievement would get him. He was already on the road of getting a perfect clear, so if he succeeds and gets a perfect clear, what will he get? Can someone go beyond a perfect clear? Or would his hidden achievement be wasted or compensated?

No matter what, this was still good news. And yet bad news at the same time. It was great that he knew the existence of such achievements, but what worried him was the difficulty. After all, this demon was totally beyond the power scope of this mission, it shouldn't have been here hadn't it been for Dorian's luck.

Now that he had made peace in his mind and calmed his emotions, Dorian took a look at his status, to see what the rewards he got were about.

He wanted to look at his subtitle but something grabbed his attention, below his Hypothermia, his Spirit Mark had been replaced by High Demon's curse:

[High Demon's Curse: You have been cursed by the High Demon Guntad for killing his subordinate. Because you are unworthy of himself coming to kill you, he will regularly send demon subordinates at your pursuit regardless of the world you are in, except for your home world.]

Honestly, he expected the first part, but the second one made him reconsider his argument about whether he would come back to this world. Though, it really was a crazy ability to send demons through different worlds and dimensions.

Next, he of course looked at his new subtitle. He was first explained that a subtitle was a special kind of title that would be constantly active. A Dreamer can only have one Title at a time, and would have to manually change it if he wants to.

However, a Dreamer can have an infinity of subtitles at the same title, all giving effects. That's why despite the degrading name, a subtitle is much more rare and useful than a Title.

His subtitle was the following:

[Demon Slayer: Demons will more easily feel oppressed by you. Their attributes will be lowered by 10% if intimidated and their recovery ability will be temporarily lessened. Moreover, as a recognized Demon Slayer, you may receive certain privileges with races enemies with the demons. Demons will attack you on sight, and often be made a primary target.]

Honestly, this subtitle was quite good except for the part about being attacked on sight, better never get in hell. But the rest was very good to him, and would even help him in future fights. If he had this title before fighting with this demon the fight would have been easier.

Dorian finally dropped the demon on the ground, now that he was finished with looking at everything he got. Well, not everything. He still hadn't used the best thing he got out of this fight. That's right, the demon's corpse.

He was sure that the entire body was a treasure. Be it the claws and teeth, they could be used to create great weapons, and the skin and the bones should be great for armor.

Originally, he would have thought that this was it, there wouldn't be anything else he could use. And yet, he was surprised.

To kill the demon, he ripped its heart out of its chest. And right now, he still had it. And it was glowing in an amazing blue light.

[Name: Low Class Demon's Heart]

[Type: Consumable]

[Rarity: Blue]

[Effect: Eat this heart to receive +5 of Vitality. Small chance of learning the skill Demon's Regeneration.]

[Requirement: This item may only be consumed thrice in one's life, and the longer it is left unused, the worse the effect will become.]

[Remark: This is a fresh heart recently taken from a demon while it was alive, allowing it to keep all of its vitality.]
