The murky tentacles quickly engulfed Liora.
Some of them wrapped around her limbs and held her in place, while others drilled into her body from her back and began devouring it.
The face etched on the gray seed trembled.
Its loud laughter spread throughout the dark void behind the True Spirit Gate.
"Hahaha!"
"After so long, it's finally time to be revived!", the face chuckled on its own, before shifting its attention to Liora.
Seeing her struggle and her efforts to break free from her shackles, the World Devourer Ancestor intensified their efforts.
At the same time, they spoke up and addressed her.
"I didn't expect that you would be so cautious as to have a clone advance to an Archdevil."
"Indeed, your caution is praiseworthy.", they prefaced before shaking their head.
"Unfortunately, your struggles are meaningless. You can't comprehend my powers, nor do you understand the process of becoming an Archdevil."
