Magical beasts were organis power'
Although they had spirits, as they were filled with Devil Energy, in the end, they were just organisical beasts, if the rank of their spirit went up, their ego, which had been eaten away by the Devil Energy, awakened little by little
Therefore, starting froradually developed hints of eical beasts were able to 'think', and starting froical beasts, at the least, they had intellect that was equal to or ', which was one of the Legendary-rank ical beasts, was known to have the ical beasts of the sa has an ability that allows it to handle the spirit of ical beasts that are weaker than it”
At Ricardo's explanation, Ian asked back
”An ability… that allows it to handle spirits?”
”That's right They don't just call the Balrog 'The King of Magical Beasts' for no reason The only being that can control s”
The reason Balrogs were also called by another naical Beasts'
Ricardo was talking about that
”Is that related to the reason why the Balrogs are ical beasts?”
Ricardo nodded his head
”Of course”
After pausing for a moment to take a breath, he continued his words
”The reason that the Balrog can handle the spirit of other ical beasts is because it has an inherent ability called 'Devil Energy Sharing'”
Ian was quietly listening to Ricardo's words, and before he realized it, Kaka, who flew over to his shoulder and sat on it, was also focusing on Ricardo's story
”Kaka, it seee that you don't even know either, huh?”
Kaka nodded his head
”That's right, owner Since even if it'sthere is to know about the world”
Ricardo, who heard the two's brief conversation, s with the explanation, this ability called Devil Energy Sharing is an ability that allows a Balrog to inject their own Devil Energy into a target, as well as borrow the Devil Energy of their targets And if the target that they've shared Devil Energy with or received Devil Energy from is weaker than them, they are able to control it”
And shortly after, the Devil Spirit Orb that was in Ricardo's hand floated up in the air
As it did so, surprisingly, the Balrog began to be controlled according to Ricardo's will
”Exactly like this, that is”
Ian spoke with a puzzled expression
”Weren't you just explaining that ability as the Balrog's ability? How is it that you are able to use that ability?”
This time, Kaka suddenly jumped in out of nowhere and responded to Ian's question
”That's because of that Devil Spirit Orb over there, owner”
”Huh?”
”That Devil Spirit Orb is an item that allows you to put one inherent ability into it, and it looks like the inherent ability of the Balrog, 'Devil Energy Sharing', is contained inside of that item”
At Kaka's explanation, the corners of Ricardo's htly curled upwards
”Indeed… I see that you're a 'Karga Phantoends I didn't think there would be someone who knew about Devil Spirit Orbs”
However, Ian didn't resolve all of his questions yet
”So, how exactly does that inherent ability called Devil Energy Sharing ?”
Ricardo's explanation continued
”It's because the reater the ay that it can borrow, and it can teth in battle”
It was only then that Ian began to understand
'So, he's saying that this creature pulled in the strength of the ht? H'
However, Ricardo's words did not end there
”On top of that, the reason whyis because I lent y Sharing”
”I see”
Even after that, Ian asked about a couple s he was curious of to Ricardo, and Ricardo responded with quite a lot of detail to his questions
”Thank you, Ricardo Thanks to you, I received a large amount of help”
”Not at all It's only fair that I respond thismy castle”
Ian, as finished with the conversation, slightly glanced at the Balrog that stood while boasting an i appearance next to Ricardo
'Ah… I want one'
Ian's gaze turned towards Ricardo again
”Ricardo, would it be alright if I asked you just one ?”
Ricardo responded
”What is it?”
Ian slightly glanced at the Balrog as he replied
”What ?”
Ricardo, whose eyes slightly grew as soon as he heard those words, soon let out a loud laugh
”Keu-hhat, are you saying that you want a Balrog?”
Ian replied with a slightly stiff voice
”That, that's right”
Ricardo laughed uncontrollably as he slowly responded
”What a truly entertaining character you are Sure, the Balrog… it's certainly the dreaical beast familiar”
He shook his head as he continued his words
”However, the Balrog is not a stage that you can dream of yet You are a rookie that was recently introduced to the path of the Devil Summoner, no?”
Ian, as at a loss for words, scratched the back of his head
”Ho to 'that place' in order to capture a Balrog, you would instead just be eaten up”
”Sorry?”
Ricardo grinned as he replied
”I'”
”Tsk…”
Fundamentally, to have your spirit eaten away 's puppet
Of course, there was no way of knoould happen to Ian's spirit if it was eaten away, but he didn't really want to find out
