CHAPTER 438: SO YOU KNEW AND SAID NOTHING?! (2/2)
“Relax, your big sis did say that she was going to pay her rent, right?”
‘You’re trying to tell me that this Nine-star core is your payment? Let’s be clear here, that core doesn’t even belong to you in the first place! If you are really serious about paying your rent, at least use your own goods!’
“But this Nine-star core can be used to create a rather interesting tool.” Ferti’nier left that tantalizing idea hanging there for a second then continued. “Little brother, you said you wanted to visit the human territories, right? I’m sure it will be inconvenient to do that as a Devil. Well, your big sis just so happen to have a remedy for that.”
‘You have a way to disguise me? The last time I tried barging into human territory, I ended up in a whole load of trouble thanks to me being a Devil. If you really have a way for me to disguise myself, then it will be a lot easier for me when I try to locate Nicole.’
…
…
Wait… if she had such a method, then… that she-devil! Why didn’t she say anything before?!
“Oh my… look’s like the jig is up.” Ferti’nier broke into a mischievous grin. “That was because your big sis found the situation to be very amusing so she kept quiet. And your big sis wasn’t that familiar with you at that time too… she was afraid you would cheat her feelings.”
‘Cheat your feelings? Amusing? Are you trying to get me killed?!!’
“But you aren’t dead, right?”
I… I swear, she’s out to jinx me. Is my suffering her only joy in life?!
“So, does our little brother want to know how?”
‘Of course!’
“Alright, then your big sis will help you raise your powers first. After all, the transformation will severely weaken you after it’s done…” Her tone became serious at that point. “Before that, you need to know the method.”

‘Of transformation?’
“That’s right.” Ferti’nier started explaining how to unlock this new power. “First off, this brand of magic was invented by us Lust Demons as a means of making up for our poor combat strength…”
According to her, this Transformation Magic was a natural talent of the Lust Demons, though the other races could learn it too. The idea behind this transformation was to cover up their devilish nature. Lust Demons who were talented were said to even be able to mask their aura in front of Priests. With this trump card, the Lust Demons were able to run amok amongst the humans.
As time passed by, the humans started to have a saying whenever a kingdom fell that a Devil’s work was at play… that Devil was actually a Lust Demon. In a lot of ways, these Lust Demons caused more damage to the humans than any Devil who had high combat strength ever could.
That was one of the reasons why Lust Demons were particularly notorious in human kingdoms. Although, there were still quite a few human Occultists who wished they had a Lust Demon. Naturally, whether or not they could summon one successfully was a different matter entirely.
Having explained all that, Ferti’nier then transmitted a set of instructions into my head. Perhaps it was because of my Lust Demon heritage, but it didn’t take long for me to comprehend these instructions. After all, this was a natural talent of the Lust Demons. As long as a Lust Demon knew the rough theory behind the magic, she could easily fill in the gaps herself.
Still, what did Ferti’nier mean when she said she was going to raise my power?
