066: The Joys of Life

Aunt Murston's affection for Lioz was not limited to killing.

In fact, Lioz could understand this quite well. The demigod stage was precisely the obsessive phase that all Deified Persons had to go through.

Before long, Aunt Murston began personally teaching him how to cultivate a Path.

"Before we begin cultivating, I must tell you something," Aunt Murston said solemnly.
