"It is not too late for you to ditch the facade and beg for your life, maybe I will take pity and spare you the pain of being trapped in your own body," Handsome Fox persuaded Ezra, as he slowly brought the soul energy seed he had conjured closer to Ezra's forehead.
"Hurry up, I am getting bored over here," Wyatt taunted Handsome Fox. It doesn't matter that they had scrabbled the surrounding space such that even the devil merchant code not use its inter-realm travel to teleport him out of here.
To be honest, he never trusted the devil merchant code to be his last restored. Especially, since Belphegor used an exclusive privilege to learn his demon merchant ID. He knew better than to trust the devil merchant code with his life. The only reason Wyatt confidently visited Cuth Diya at the enemy's hideout was because he had his ways to escape in case he needed to.
"..." Muth Diya shook his head in dismay looking at Handsome Fox's undead incarnation's action and thought, 'This is why there needs to be a minimum requirement and test for devil merchants not native to the dark realm to join the faction.'
Then he looked at his son standing next to Erza and Handsome Fox in a stupor and signaled him to return to his side since there was no telling what Handsome Fox's undead incarnation would do next.
It took him a while to notice but Muth Diya was sure that Handsome Fox's undead incarnation was simulated by Ezra and had gone mad. The emotions of the corpse used to create the undead incarnation were affecting the decision-making of Handsome Fox's undead incarnation.
Creating an undead incarnation, involved turning a corpse into an undead and refining it as their incarnation, unlike corpse puppet incarnation where the corpse is refined into a puppet and then incarnation. The difference was that the undead had awareness and memories while the corpse puppet had neither of them.
The awareness and memories of the undead used to create the undead incarnation when stimulated surface clashing with the incarnation's regular judgment. As Handsome Fox's incarnation, it should be cautious and only act in self-interest but now the undead's awareness being provoked by Ezra seems to largely affect the incarnation's decision-making.
Muth Diya was spot on, Handsome Fox's undead incarnation had indeed descended into madness being provoked by Ezra. Besides this, there was another bigger reason why demigods and devils avoided creating undead incarnations. Over a certain period of time, the awareness of the undead and the sentience of the undead incarnation fuse to form an entirely new consciousness.
This entirely new consciousness could not rebel against the original but also wield its own title demon core or divinity along with diamond-grade grimoire. As the new existence was no longer a part of the original but an independent and individual existence born between the original and the undead used to create the undead incarnation.
However, despite such risks, there was a reason why Handsome Fox dared to create an undead incarnation and that reason was none other than the ability of his origin card. Because of it unlike other demigods and devils, he actually looked forward to the day the two awareness of his undead incarnation fuse, and the new existence is formed.
Handsome Fox's origin card allowed him to live hypnotic suggestions in his target, which included his undead incarnation. He long discovered that his seed of hypnotic suggestion could also participate in the fusion of the two awareness of his undead incarnation.
Meaning, the new existence born with will innately follow the hypnotic suggestion he had implanted in his Undead Incarnation. As a result, the new existence would be more loyal to Handsome Fox than the Undead incarnation itself.
Besides, thanks to the hypnotic suggestion seed it was easier to subdue the awareness of the undead and refine it into an undead incarnation. When its awareness evolves the new existence, the roots of the hypnotic suggestion seed sink deeper to the point of absolute.
As a result, Handsome Fox will be able to create a small army of diehard loyal demigods which would only keep growing with time. This was why Handsome Fox did not mind using his origin card to create undead incarnations left and right.
Catching his father's signal, Cuth Diya awakened from his stupor and rushed to his father's side while asking, "Father, if the demigod goes overboard torturing Ezra, I am afraid that you might suffer from the backlash of the contract so how about we leave the mission to Handsome Fox and head home?"
"Home, you cannot return to the dark realm. Temporarily this world is your home," Muth Diya informed his son, though he did agree with his son's suggestion. He too was worried that the mad undead incarnation of Handsome Fox might end up harming Ezra's life in front of him as a result he would be penalized by the contract. So it would be in his best interest to leave here until Handsome Fox controls Ezra and cancels the contract.
"What? I just created my title demon core, I wanted to go back and use my strength to earn merits and rise in the faction to create a name for myself," Cuth Diya panicked. He was fully aware of Wyatt's plan for him, therefore he could not help but worry when he heard his father saw he would not be returning to the dark realm with him but staying in the card world.
"Son, let me tell you the title demon core you created is special. If other dark races find out that you are the successor of the hell of contamination they will not stop at anything to kill you before you become a devil. So it is best if you stay here and cultivate diligently, once you are the devil you can return to the dark realm," Muth Diya explained to avoid going into details.
