Mammon quickly conjured a formation of demonic blood energy and placed the core inside, shielding it from external influence.
Then, he grabbed the formation and swallowed it, storing it within his Bloodline Storage, a parallel dimension within his own blood, part of the powers Vampires in this world can develop once they reach his level.
"Was that someone who disappeared? Mother hasn't reported anybody though..." he thought. "Maybe she's keeping it a secret from us, so we don't worry. That's typical of her..."
Mammon rolled his eyes and rushed forward. More Spirit Beasts emerged—some of them occasionally had a person within their core, reminding him of what happened back when Kireina started battling people who had been turned into Spirit Beasts.
Those with people inside were either normal humans infused with demonic energy—likely drug-addicted criminals who consumed too much Euphoria—Werewolves, Vampires, and... Ice Elves or other Ice Races from Genesis.
