Chapter 1016

Darius' eyelids jerked wide open with delight and shock. "Sir!"

Only calm vibes radiated from Teivel as he placed both hands behind his back. The only emotion that stood out was his smiling eyes. "These little dogs exist—or rather, they used to be real dogs. It's just that I used a unique method to keep them by my side after they died. They can temporarily appear here if I infuse large quantities of life force into them. They'll do what regular dogs do upon materializing."

Darius nodded, now realizing how miraculous the former's actions were. Then, another idea formed in his head, causing his lips to purse. Yet, he ultimately couldn't bring himself to ask it directly. "I bet this wouldn't work for humans—"

"Humans and dogs are different," Teivel answered as he knew what Darius wanted to ask even though the latter hadn't said it straightforwardly. While he said that, his gaze deepened like he had recalled a distant memory.

Darius silently stood aside and shot a curious gaze at Teivel.
