Chapter 116:
The army will strike the Devil King's palace at dawn. They will be going to the altar on the last floor. Everybody has a toast and...the next day. Ganesa says that at sunrise, the humanization ritual will begin. He forces the slaves to carry the offerings to the altar before it happens. One drops an offering and he kills him and another for asking for rest.
The triclops watch on, thinking it's the sickest shit ever as Ganesa targets another who begs for death, saying the land has become hell without Parvati's guidance. But then Pai speaks up, stopping him. She says Shiva taught her that all life is important and orders him to stop being cruel. Ganesa argues back that the people he is killing are lice and their lives are meaningless but Pai counters that while she doesn't know what their lives are worth, she knows she doesn't want to die so she doesn't want to do to other what she doesn't want done to her. She asks if Ganesa wants to die, he says no, and she tells him he needs to stop it then. Ganesa laughs and asks if she wants to learn a lesson in place of the slaves before Shiva shows up, saying even those without powers or magic are valuable property. Ganesa is halted and Shiva leads a happy Pai away for them both to be humanified. Ganesa promises that as soon as Shiva is human, he's going to kill him.
Pai tells Shiva that she can't believe there are bad people like that. He tells her not to trust those who come from the Seiichi, given that they treat those without powers like they're less than nothing. But he says that he and Pai are scarier than they are. Their powers are great but it will continue to grow until it devours their personalities, leading to indifference and the absence of feelings. A life without feelings, with no conscience, no interests...no real stimuli, only able to feel something by abusing others. It's the fate of all triclops, with only the young being able to feel normally. Pai and her mom are young, relatively, so they still have access to their emotions. But damn, the triclops suck...Shiva thinks it might be better if the entire race just dies off.
Shiva walks in where he's greeted by the others. The winged lady who kidnapped Parvati tells him that the amulet he created to cause split personalities has been used on Parvati already, making her thirst after him and act like a normal girl without all that political nonsense getting in her head. The Devil King tells him to calm down because Shiva was the one who said Parvati needed to be subjected to the ritual today but, to everyone's shock, Shiva just smiles. He says that Parvati is young so she won't have any trouble with the amulet now but later in the future, she will develop multiple personalities that may cause trouble for her. Not wanting her mind to be destroyed, he wanted to turn her into a human to save her but Pai interrupts to ask him why he's turning himself human. Is it because he hates triclops? He answers that he's becoming human because he's growing old...and he kisses her.
He wants to become human before he loses his feelings, especially after meeting Yakumo who made him realize how much he misses feeling things.
Anyway, they got the statue and it's time to start. Pai doesn't want Shiva to be human, not wanting him to leave her. Then Yakumo shows up, reaching for her. Then the chapter ends with the ritual starting.
