Chapter 343 - 338: Mutation
Money is external, but cultivation is not; Leon must choose a good object to transfer power to, or else he would rather give up.
"What can I do for you, master?" Pella slightly lowered her head, her long hair falling down.
Leon noticed Pella’s slender fingers, marked with several small cuts, presumably from daily training. He asked, "How many years have you been here?"
"Five years," Pella answered, not uttering a single extra word.
Leon left the desert during his youth and settled on Volcanic Island, now it’s been over twenty years. The first batch of Tiefling maids trained to work for Leon mostly were dispatched elsewhere. Pella has only been here for five years, clearly part of the second or third batch of recruited Tiefling maids.
"You are a Deceit Master, aren’t you..." Leon thought to himself that Pella must be a Mephisto Tiefling, these Tieflings possessed a unique arcane magic talent, hence choosing to be Deceit Masters among the numerous sub-positions of Wanderers to fully utilize their gifts, "Attack me now. Immediately."
Leon stared at Pella, observing her actions; her lips moved slightly but did not speak, nor did she look at Cecilia. Her hands brushed over the skirt, gripping two daggers, and in the blink of an eye, vanished into thin air, reappearing behind Leon, thrusting towards his neck.
Leon remained motionless, allowing Pella to attack, her assault couldn’t harm him for a simple reason. His human form was achieved via a Transformation Skill; he couldn’t be considered a human but rather a Dragon transformed into a human form, truly a Transformed Demon, with skin toughness on par with Dragon Scales.
"Stop now... You actually know Mysterious Steps, quite impressive." Leon recalled that in the game, Deceit Masters could only choose Confusion Control and Illusion Magic Spells, but reality isn’t a game; in reality, anything is possible.
