With a smile on his face, he continued, "Either way, I realized it in a quite simple way. The outlines of whatever you're trying to hide. I assume they're wings and a tail? Of course, immediately that meant that you couldn't be a person. There is a race of bird-like people with wings and something similar to tail, but the former is directly connected to their arms, while the latter is short and stubby. Your tail seemed to be wrapped around your waist, and your wings were not connected to your arms. So, you had to be a monster. Together with the fact that you seem to also be hinding some horns up there, you completely covered your skin so as to not reveal anything, you seem perfectly humanoid, besides those extra parts, and even chose to hide your eyes somehow. Your ears do also seem to be slightly pointy judging from the outline I can see there... As such, the conclusion was simple. A type of monster with a different skin-tone to any type of person, with potential for wings, horns, and tails, with eyes and ears that are different to that of people as well, and to top it off the potential of incredible intelligence and dexterity as you have already shown me. The first thing that popped into my mind was 'Demon'. So, I tried my luck."

And so, Eiro started to smile a bit as he picked up one of the three bodies, one of the two men. He would save the woman for when John satisfied his hunger a little bit. After all, the 'Taboo' skill was one that heavily amplified any sort of 'Taboo' desire, which included necrophilia. Eiro did find something like a weak ambrosium inside one of the hidden rooms here, although it was just a discarded experiment by the former owner of the manor as he was trying to find a way to easily control monsters for different purposes.

The Hobgoblin looked at Eiro nervously, but in the end just nodded his head. He had been listening to everything that Eiro told him for the last little while, after all, so he grew used to the fact that Eiro was usually trying to improve Gobo in one way or another. He knew that he should listen to Eiro if he wanted to become a better Gobo, so that's why he tried to listen to him perfectly, even if he couldn't always execute the commands amazingly.

Seeing how this was the case despite Eiro continuosly trying to change it so that it wouldn't, the demon realized something, "That's somewhat like Arc's class-ability, isn't it..?" Eiro muttered. If he thought about it, it may be possible to use this to their advantage instead of trying to get rid of this trait altogether. Obviously it would have some uses, seeing how well Arc was able to make use of it, but it also had obvious disadvantages. Once Eiro realized that this may not be all too bad, he stopped trying to distract Gobo to test something else out.

At least that's what Eiro was trying to achieve. In reality, it didn't even remotely work out how the demon wanted it to. In the end, Gobo just kept on concentrating on the one enemy that he was currently fighting, and if he had to pay attention to something else, he would shift all of his focus over toward that 'something else' and then forget about the enemy that he was fighting before.

Surprised, Rudy looked at Eiro nervously, before the Demon simply stared at him, standing up straight so that Eiro would end up being slightly taller than Rudy, who was roughly the same height as Eiro at this point, "That you're going to be way taller than me not too long from now." With a slight grumble, Eiro looked somewhat 'down' at Rudy, who just started to laugh, "Hah, right... Well, I'll patiently wait for the time where I'm looking down at you."

While Jess slowly nodded her head and started following the others, someone else spoke up to make a choice, "If you're cool with it, can I leave?" The slime asked all of a sudden, and Eiro turned his head to look at the nearly translucent blob currently hanging onto his shoulders, "Of course not, Bavet. You're my pet."

But before Eiro could finish his thoughts, he could feel something pull on his cloak as his feet were pulled from the ground. Rudy had grabbed Eiro and then followed up by throwing him behind his back.

"That's a pretty unique ability in and of itself though, isn't it..?" Nelli pointed out quietly, and Eiro immediately nodded his head, "Definitely. Rudy's class ability might have the greatest power in and of itself, but that's because it works over a long period of time. It's not like the others' abilities that are mostly useful just in specific situations. Rudy is a non-combat all-rounder, and that really seems to shine through this unique class of his."

Eiro still just stood there as the Devil leaned forward and just took a look at what he could see, "But it's quite cluttered in here... you should do some spring-cleaning, don't you think? There's your cards over there just laying on the table, magic stones on the shelves, even some tools laying on the ground... And those books are nearly falling over, how annoying." The Devil pointed out as he waved his hand to the side and made the portal that he came here through appear once more as he pulled the key out of Eiro's chest, "Oh, not to mention that little extra... surprise in there. No wonder you're so different from the rest if you have that left over."
