”Impossible!” Corey yelled as she entered her demonic form and broke free from Wyattʼs restraints.

Stumbling a few steps backward, Wyatt stabilized himself as demonized Corey got up on her foot and glared at him yelling, ”I saw them both return to Bloodetteʼs dungeon seal.”

”Handsome Foxʼs ability can implant hypnotic suggestions in his target which get triggered when the conditions are met. He implanted a hypnotic suggestion in Bloodette, causing her to detonate herself upon seeing me.

Half an hour ago, after I arrived at the city I went to visit Bloodette in her dungeon seal, triggering the suggestion to detonate herself implanted in her. If you were right about Cortney also being in the dungeon seal then she might have succumbed to the explosion.

And I have already confirmed that Susan has a similar hypnotic suggestion Implanted in her,” Wyatt explained to Corey as he took out a neon blue elixir from his grimoire. Then he added, ”Take it, it will help you deal with your title demon coreʼs mental corruption.”

Knowing Corey was mentally unstable and moody because of her titled demon coreʼs corruption, Wyatt had bought this elixir from devil merchant code to have a proper chat with Corey.

”...” Corey did not reach out to take the elixir from Wyatt she was still processing the information about Bloodette and Cortneyʼs death, especially the part about how Handsome Fox was behind their death. Corey was aware of who Handsome Fox was, How could Corey forget the name of the demigod who almost kidnapped her and Susan this morning?

Seeing Corey was in a trance, Wyatt threw the elixir at her, its bottle was a lot more sturdy than it looked. Besides Corey caught it reflexively, awakening from her shock. Then looking at the elixir in her hand she asked, ”What is this?”

”Just drink it,” Wyatt said in annoyance not wanting to repeat himself.

Bloodette and Cortneyʼs demise came as such a shock to Corey that she muddle-headly did as Wyatt said. Removing the stopper of the elixir she drank it all in a single gulp. As soon as she drank the elixir Coreyʼs demonic form was lifted and she was back to her normal appearance. It was surprising to see she was not obsessing over Susan at this time, it was a good change of pace. It seems Corey did think of Bloodette and Cortney as her friends.

Seeing Corey like this, Wyatt frowned and called out, ”Park, are you not going to come out after hearing all this?”

Wyatt waited for Park to show herself but time passed and he got no reply causing him to frown. In irritation, Wyatt wanted to peek into Coreyʼs title demon core to see what kept Park so busy that she would not show herself even after hearing two of her friends were murdered and Susan might be next. But Wyatt controlled himself from invading Corey and Parkʼs privacy.

”Corey, call Park out, I need to talk to her,” Wyatt was adamant about meeting Park because he believed she must remember what Corey had forgotten.

Even if Handsome Foxʼs ability had suppressed Coreyʼs memory of what she had done when under the influence of his ability, Corey Park her ego flame should be aware of what Corey had done. After all, Corey was the one under the influence of Handsome Foxʼs ability, not Corey Park.

”Corey Park? How do I call her? I am her, she is me,” Corey said in confusion. Listening to her reaction Wyatt frowned. Seeing how Corey Park would not show herself and Corey did not seem to think of Corey Park as a separate person, Wyatt had a bad feeling about this.

Wyatt wanted to believe this was somehow related to Handsome Fox, but a part of him shouted something entirely different, he did not want to believe Baem had something to do with this. However, considering that she has waited for centuries to reunite with Corey Park, who knows what she was up to?

”Darn it,” Wyatt cussed unable to get hold of the only person who might know how and when Handsome Fox used his ability on Corey and what he had her do when she was under the influence of his ability.

Finding himself right where he started Wyatt wondered what could he accomplish with such allies. Then he decided to take drastic measures apologizing to Corey, ”I am sorry, but I have to do this, for Susan.”

Apologizing before committing the crime, Wyatt immediately made use of his Soul pupils to peek into Coreyʼs titled demon core. Soon Wyattʼs spiritual body found itself surrounded by black smoke with no sense of direction within Coreyʼs titled demon core. It had changed a lot since the last time he was here.

No, it had not changed, rather this smoke was the security measure used by Corey and Park against anyone trying to invade their title demon core. This might be effective against others but for Wyatt who had soul pupils, the thick smoke was nothing. Like a torch, Wyattʼs soul pupils peered through the vile smoke veil, shining light on the way to the center of the title demon core, where Coreyʼs ethereal spirit was resting.

As Wyatt prepared to move forward in search of Coreyʼs ego fire, Coreyʼs spiritual body manifested right next to him and warned, ”Wyatt, get out of my titled demon core while I am being polite.”

Had it been old Corey she would not have bothered to warn Wyatt instead attacked him with waves of her army of sinners. But after drinking the blue elixir Wyatt had given her, Coreyʼs mind had stabilized and the corruption of her titled demon core had receded.?She was more reasonable now.

”I am sorry Corey, but I canʼt. I have to do this to get to the bottom of things, you do what you have to do,” Wyatt said prepared to face what was about to come next.
