Its hind limbs that were supposed to stand up suddenly went limp as if they lost strength, as Lance withdrew his hand, bringing out a crushed spine.
At this moment, Alhazred followed up, pulling out some strange tools while chanting, bizarre ritual patterns fell on the demon, dispersing its aura and also siphoning more of the demon's life force.
After severing the spine, the ritual Alhazred set up suppressed it, with tendrils extending from the shadows tightly securing its limbs and controlling it.
"I know you can understand my words, now tell me what I want to know, and you will survive."
Lance's inquiry received no response; the demon bound by the ritual refused to cooperate, instead roaring, in words incomprehensible to ordinary people, but Lance could understand its meaning.
"Mortal! Kill me, or I will bring you destruction!"
