Raphael examined his newly acquired abilities. They were all more or less what he had expected, with no real surprises.
In particular, he already had plans for the Marionette's most commonly used ability: controlling ordinary objects.
From now on, those two Puppets would never leave Raphael's side. He intended to hide in the Spirit World and control them to interact with the people around him.
They were not marionettes, but they served the same purpose. Both could create similarly eerie effects, allowing him to digest the potion.
As for his other abilities, Raphael felt that the Marionettes of the Southern and Northern Continents had not explored the potential of Curse thoroughly enough.

Finally, Raphael's spirituality alerted him to another new Composite Skill: Impart Desire!
Raphael had been sitting, but now he sprang to his feet.
This ability was practically a cheat!
It could actually impart desires and emotions to a target!
With this, the Seduction Technique no longer seemed so appealing!
