'How could I not notice Baem's Pain?' Agony wondered. For someone named Agony, she failed to see the agony of her only friend, the irony was not lost on her. Not to get started on her t.i.tled demon core 'Undead Flame of Agony.' 

Corey Park's t.i.tled demon core was 'Eternal Flame of Agony' but after Agony was born from her corpse it mutated to 'Undead Flame of Agony.' 

Getting no reply from Agony, as the orchestrator of this event Belphegor frowned his brows. Because Agony was a valuable a.s.set he would hate to have to dispose of her but he believed in his manipulative and brainwashing capabilities. He thought this should not be enough for Agony to break free from the mental shackles he placed in her mind.

Having learned a lesson at the hands of Corey Park Belphegor had increased his means of a.s.surance when it comes to recruiting new children. One had to know if Wyatt was the first human to trick Belphegor then Corey Park was the first demi-human to strike the fear of death in Belphegor's heart and mind. 

So after killing Corey Park, even though her corpse was destroyed he spared no effort and used a SSS rank Corpse Preservation Curse on it to rebuild her corpse from scratch. Then refined it into a SSS rank corpse puppet. Later he had the Corpse Puppet act as his palace's gatekeeper, to not only strike fear in the minds of his enemies but also bring shame on Corey Park's legacy. 

However, things changed when Park's Pet snake which had managed to escape with grave wounds returned after recovering and gaining strength close to transcendence in search of revenge. Seeing the corpse puppet made using Corey Park's corpse it wailed and cried and when he threatened to destroy the corpse puppet it gave up on its revenge and lay next to Corpse Puppet guarding it for centuries to come. 

During this period, Belphegor noticed that the Corpse Puppet was growing stronger even though he has stopped refining it. When he looked into it, he found that after centuries the Snake's strength had not increased but noticeably decreased as it was using its life essence to nurture the corpse puppet. Belphegor laughed at the snake's stupidity and leave it be. He was more than happy to let the snake reinforce his corpse puppet using its life. 

But to his surprise, soon the Corpse Puppet gained spirituality and evolved into a Corpse devil. Being refined by him the Corpse Devil obviously respected Belphegor as its creator. Taking advantage of this Belphegor spared no efforts to brainwash the female corpse devil to make himself the center of Agony's life. Knowing that as long as he controlled Agony he could use her to abuse Corey Park's legacy starting with the stupid pet snake of hers. 

"Agony," Belphegor stressed, soon a red light flashed in Agony's eyes, which were previously deeply disturbed and confused seeing Baem's tears. With the red light, Agony's confusion vanished and her gaze became focused as she looked at the crying Baem and shoot a beam of wailing flames at her. 

"Hiss," seeing the incoming attack Baem did not bother to dodge the screaming flames and instead glared at Belphegor however helplessness was apparent in its stare. In response, the devil sneered at Baem saying, "What are you going to do about it?" 

However, to the surprise of everyone present. Especially the demiG.o.ds, Wyatt walked in front of Baem and used his celestial repulsion force to easily block the beam of fire which let out pain-filled screams as it pa.s.sed through the air. As the mutated version of the Eternal Flame of Agony, the Undead Flame of Agony had inherited its signature sound along with its many abilities. 

After blocking the attack, Wyatt turned to look at Baem and said, "Buddy, thanks for the help. Now go do what you have been waiting a lifetime for and leave these two to me." 

Agony wasn't the only one who saw the pain in Baem's eyes, Wyatt too saw its loneliness and pain. It instantly reminded him of the Sky Blossom City tournament's semi-finals between him and Corey, more specifically the promise between Corey Bright and Baem. 

"Hiss," Baem produced a noise while flicking her forked tongue, though Wyatt did not understand what exactly she was saying he understood her intent. It asked him not to kill Agony. To which Wyatt said, "I can't promise you anything but I will try." 

"Hiss," Baem stressed as if saying not good enough. 

"Fine, I promise to not kill her. After all, I do owe you one for helping me subdue the true relic," shaking his head Wyatt promised Baem as he did not like to owe others.

As soon as Wyatt promised the tears of Baem evaporated and a slyness could be seen in its eyes, seeing this Wyatt sighed. Then continue to shake his head thinking that he did owe Baem a big one and understanding that the pain and loneliness in its eyes could not be faked. This must be Baem's effort to save some face. Showing that Baem was a lot smarter than her underdeveloped spirituality would allow. 

Then Baem's length decreased to a meter and before leaving she flicked her forked tongue at him as if thanking him. Wyatt took the moment to confirm, "Did you specifically learn the size manipulation for this moment?" 

Baem nodded its head in response to Wyatt's question. Ever since Corey tried to summon her during the tournament she has been practicing size manipulation so that it can control its size and meet its master the next time she summoned her. The very next second Baem's white figure vanished, she was too excited to reunite with her master after so many centuries. She could not wait any longer. 

Witnessing the exchange between the stupid snake and Wyatt, Belphegor confirmed one thing. That both of them knew each other prior to today. The more he tried to deduce what was going on the more confused Belphegor got because he was missing an important piece that was key to solving the puzzle and that was the information that Corey Park, once the source of his nightmares, was now alive as Corey Bright.
