And as easily as I can remove them, I can also put them back.\", she added and slowly brought her torn arm close to her skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a faint click, the arm immediately fell into place, seamlessly attaching to her shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alpha then lightly waved her left hand around, as if she were showing that her previous words had been true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Within my body, a mechanical core has been formed. As long as that core is not taken out or broken, I will not die.\", Alpha stated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if she felt that the previous display had not been enough, she reached out for her face, placing her palms on her respective cheeks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with no hesitation, she tore her head off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although completely detached from her neck, her face still remained lively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes still shone with intelligence, while her lips continued moving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a strange perspective...\", she muttered in a low voice before turning her head with her hands, pointing toward Liora.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Staring into her crimson eyes, she spoke up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord, do you wish to give it a try?\", she asked, bringing her head closer to Liora, as if wanting to hand it over to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liora could not deny that she was indeed curious about this unusual ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, although her Low Level Regeneration and Myriad Devils Armor had granted her superb healing capabilities, there was still a limit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let alone her head, even if her heart was pierced, Liora would immediately die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, Alpha remained fine, even when her head had been severed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the end, Liora—though tempted—didn’t pick up Alpha’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Waving her hand, she gestured for Alpha to put her body together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this and the mechanical core your only abilities?\", she asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alpha didn’t rush to answer, but instead reattached her head to her body before shaking it lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, besides these two abilities, there’s one more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she said this, Alpha’s eyes wandered around the hall, as if she were searching for something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At last, her eyes landed on the stone bed that Liora had created not long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"May I?\", she asked, and after getting Liora’s approval, Alpha moved again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unclenching her right fist, a small gap formed at the center of her palm, revealing a vast space within it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thin, semi-translucent white thread extended out of that space and reached outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if it were a living thing, the thread twisted in the air, and—having received Alpha’s command—shot toward the stone bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When it reached its target, it didn’t wrap around it, nor did it fall on top of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, its other end drilled right into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, the thread vanished, disappearing as quickly as it had appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just when Liora was thinking that Alpha’s ability had failed, the bed shook all of a sudden, and it began to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The four stone slabs supporting its frame bent in what should have been an impossible direction, and as if they were its feet, they pushed it forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bed seemed to have obtained a will, as it began walking in circles around Liora and Alpha like a lost dog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A rare hint of pride flashed across Alpha’s face as she witnessed this scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning to Liora and noticing her curiosity, she hurriedly hid that pride and explained:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I call this ability Life Infusion. Through the thread that appeared earlier, I can activate the spirituality within lifeless, ordinary objects.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if she thought that this sounded a little too complicated, Alpha tried to simplify it:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Essentially, I can transform inanimate things into my puppets. As long as I establish a connection to an item, I can manipulate it freely.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing Alpha’s \"overenthusiastic\" response, Liora nodded her head with a smile as if she were truly happy for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After she let Alpha blow off some steam and regain her coolness, Liora asked the question in her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are there no drawbacks or side effects in your abi—I mean Life Infusion?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her question seemed to have caught Alpha off guard, causing her to pause for a brief moment before giving a reply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in that short amount of time, Liora’s eyes had captured her faint embarrassment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The only drawback of this ability is that I can’t manipulate those items indefinitely.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When my energy is exhausted and Life Infusion deactivates, those objects will turn back to their original appearance, losing their spirituality.\", Alpha’s indifferent voice echoed in her ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, she quickly followed this up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But with my current strength, I can use Life Infusion during most fights without any issue.\", Alpha explained, clearly wanting to defend herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing her words, Liora nodded her head, having understood the basic details of the so-called Life Infusion ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although something seemed off about Alpha—perhaps a side effect of her transformation—her words were still quite reliable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Liora didn’t doubt her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I originally believed that by consuming the ashes of the Unknown, Alpha would awaken the ability to create clone-puppets. But it seems that I was mistaken.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rather than granting her one of the Unknown’s abilities, it’s more like his ashes unlocked Alpha’s hidden potential.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, Liora was satisfied with the results of Alpha’s upgrade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These three abilities, coupled with the aura she subconsciously exuded, made her understand that Alpha’s combat power had soared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps, she could match a ranked Devil in her current state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, that still needed to be confirmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Liora glanced at Alpha and opened her mouth to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go and call Scurry and the Owl Devil over. I have something to ask of them.\", she ordered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Alpha was slightly confused by the sudden change of subject, she didn’t dare to disobey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief salute, she exited the hall, ready to call those two people over.\u003C\u002Fp>",1050,"2026-06-03T10:39:03.947Z",1,"novelbin.me","a4568aeb5d7bca2a7b3aef3405fda5cf5928a276fcf8de8410555c8bc70e5409","evolution-from-little-devil-to-devil-empress-chapter-70","evolution-from-little-devil-to-devil-empress-chapter-68",482,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fevolution-from-little-devil-to-devil-empress-cover.jpg"]
