Calirer saw the change in the whale and kept going. "So, even other races, if they have access to the infernal laws and Yin Energy, can train up to the second level. The third is not impossible either; your soul power is even greater than mine, being so young. Going beyond that really..."
"I understand. Do you have access to the complete technique?" the whale spoke, cutting her off.
"Hm? We only get authorization to receive the higher-level technique when we reach the previous one. I can only use up to the second, but I know the third level and one day, I dream of going beyond." She replied, uncertain.
The whale then continued. "Can you teach me? Or do you need authorization?"
"We have authorization to teach its elementary level to anyone interested. But beyond that, it’s only possible if you’re part of the clan. Our clan has always recruited anyone who wanted to join and is not limited to demons... because we are weak." Calirer sighed. "Several evil cultivators have been part of the clan in the past, but nowadays, we have no one else willing to join, making it difficult for us to interact with the outside world. That’s why I had hopes that Langrum would help with that and encouraged her to teach the technique to someone capable and force him to come see me."
"Hm... do I gain anything extra by joining you? Apparently, you guys are treated worse than trash, and that’s why no evil cultivator wants to join, right?" The whale spoke bluntly.
She then thought deeply. "Uh... we’re all hybrids, and I taught Langrum how to stabilize her bloodline with a method widely used by us. You’re part of the Vital Yin Sect, right? I can assure you’ll receive hundreds of..."
"I’m not interested!" Bruno spoke abruptly and somewhat angrily, cutting her off before she could finish the obvious promise. If Alm or Ruri heard her imply that, things would get tense.

"... I understand." Calirer looked at the whale with angry eyes and then glanced at Langrum with a strange expression. She then noticed that Langrum hardly had any Yang in her body. "You..."
"It seems you’ve grown and become quite possessive." She spoke strangely to Langrum, and everyone’s faces showed confused expressions, not understanding Calirer’s remark. "Well, in the end, my disciple found someone good enough for me to create an army of powerful descendants."
’Shit!’ Bruno thought mentally, feeling a bloodthirsty aura rising to the heavens from behind him.
"Don’t think weird things! That fatty... ugh!" Langrum began to speak, and everyone saw her face contorting in disgust.
"Now, don’t be so picky. Among demons, there are many different forms and physical types." Calirer spoke and saw everyone getting strange, realizing her slip-up.
Then, Calirer felt a bloodthirsty gaze and a familiar Yin aura. On the whale’s side, a small girl was looking at her, gripping the bone saber’s hilt as if she wanted to attack and was restraining herself with all her might.
"That saber... is this your disciple, Langrum?" Calirer smiled, seeming to understand. "I understand your jealousy for your master Langrum. But for demons, having powerful descendants is a life goal. You should be happy for her to find someone..."
Poor Calirer truly couldn’t be more off the mark, having completely misunderstood Langrum’s relationship with Goku.
Calirer stopped her words when violet runes lit up on the small girl’s body, who took a step forward in extreme fury.
"Your b..." The whale quickly cut off Ruri’s words and grabbed the girl, lifting her and putting her on his shoulder, speaking seriously.
"Where did you learn that!? Control yourself! Loeus, why are you hanging back there? Come and introduce yourself!" Bruno exclaimed desperately.
Only then did Calirer see a very young boy who looked timid and glanced with regret. "Loeus is my disciple, master. He... has been through a lot and still doesn’t have much confidence in himself."
"Hm?" Calirer looked at Langrum and felt her tender gaze toward the boy, and it was her turn to make a strange face. Then, she nodded in understanding. "He... he’s a lot like you in the past."
Loeus was stunned by those words, and feeling Langrum’s gaze, he approached and bowed politely. Calirer waved, smiling at the shy boy, and brought him to her side, gently stroking his head like a grandmother playing with her grandson. After a few seconds, she was satisfied and turned to the whale, speaking.
"It seems I misunderstood many things... Well, we don’t have much to offer that catches your eye, unfortunately... but whoever is in our clan currently is a fair individual, even if they are a demon."
The whale didn’t react, and she sighed, thinking, and added, "If you join us, we’ll support you with everything we can, and if we gain access to the Ashen Realm, we can send you there, and you’ll keep everything you obtain."
"Yes! Goku, the lucky charm I gave you. My master told me it came from that place," Langrum said quickly.
Instantly, the whale’s expression changed again, and he asked, "Are there other things like the stone charm in that Ashen Realm?"
"Yes," Calirer answered excitedly. "There are countless different treasures, some kind of useless like that lucky charm. But are you interested?"
The whale nodded while Calirer continued. "The individual uses for the treasures there are limited. But all clans have a demonic diagram, and it gets stronger when treasures are accumulated in it. That’s why all clans never let a member keep the treasures unless it’s something like a useless lucky charm."
’Once again she said the charm was useless... Could it be it only works with us? We need to get our hands on more of these treasures and test them.’ Alm commented incredulously.
The whale pondered and commented, "So you promise that everything I obtain will be mine? And you’ll give me the entire technique as soon as I advance in it?"
"Everything will be yours!" She replied quickly.
’Hm... I don’t know. She seems honest, but I doubt an entire clan would agree if we get a mountain of stuff from that place. Not to mention, we’re not demons; we’ll be treated worse than trash within the clan. Those demons there are enslaved by others and will love to take out their frustration on non-demons.’ Alm analyzed coldly.
’What if she protects us?’ Bruno commented thoughtfully. ’She seems reliable to me. If she becomes the leader of the clan, we can be free and do whatever we want.’
Alm then retorted slightly. ’I doubt she’s capable of that. How do you plan... wait, you don’t want to waste our demon blood on her, do you?’
’It’s impossible to use the blood due to the effects on the human women. They can only absorb the Yin Energy in it, which is a colossal waste... But what about this demoness called Calirer? If she truly covers for us in the clan, it might be worth the price.’
Alm had to admit Bruno’s words made sense. ’Indeed. Her demonic bloodline will be amplified to the extreme because we managed to remove the blood curse. This will completely change her future and destiny. Within a pathetic clan, she’ll rise like a dragon in the sky.’
The whale then waved to Calirer and commented, "I can change your destiny and the future of your entire clan. But nothing comes for free. Are you truly willing?!"
Those words echoed like a true proposal of a demonic and shadowy contract. In that instant, Calirer felt her destiny light up and vibrate as if her response could alter everything forever.
