However, the price of this power was great. The fragment of the Demon King's body was still alive. It was trying to take over the mind and body of Ternecia, its false host, and gather the other fragments of the Demon King in order to resurrect him. Even if it weren't alive, the Demon King's fragments contained Guduranis's Mana that had properties that were not supposed to exist in Lambda, so they would still eat away at their hosts. The extent to which this had occurred was displayed as the 'Demon King Encroachment Degree' skill on the Status. Ternecia's Demon King Encroachment Degree was already level 5. The higher the level of the skill, the more freely she could use the fragment of the Demon King, but it was also proof of how close she was to the Demon King, how much her mind had been encroached upon.
