Although they were Devils, precisely because they were Devils, they were in some respects quite "simple" creatures.
After experiencing Rosen's power, War, Hunger, and Death, these three Devils had no choice but to submit.
Under normal circumstances, as Devils, they could not be killed.
Even death was merely entering reincarnation and being resurrected once more.
Even if their resurrected selves were no longer their current selves.
However, they clearly understood that Rosen could completely kill them, making their concepts cease to exist.
Of course, death was not the most terrifying thing.
The key was that Rosen could seal them in Hell at any time, preventing them from stepping out of the cross coffin.
And given the power gap between them, once sealed, there was basically no possibility of them breaking out of the coffin on their own.
For Devils of the Apocalypse Four Knights type, death was not the most terrifying; what was terrifying was losing freedom.
To be forever sealed in the cross coffin, enduring torment without being able to die, was the most painful thing.
So, after the three Devils woke up, their fear and obedience towards Rosen had reached their peak.
"If only you had known this day would come, why did you act as you did?"
Makima watched from the side, smiling.
Although it wasn't the best outcome she had envisioned, it was enough to restrain her sisters.
"After becoming Rosen's subordinate, you will no longer be an ordinary Devil; you cannot indulge in any worldly pleasures. If you violate this, the contract will release holy light within your bodies, burning you with unbearable pain."
Although it was Makima's deceptive line, Rosen didn't correct it.
After all, after becoming his subordinates, the things Devils usually loved to do in the human realm, such as making contracts, deceiving, and killing, would no longer be possible.
"Then let's begin. Are you all ready?"
Amidst their uneasy feelings, Rosen materialized a holy spear from his hand.
The holy spear, emanating strong holy light, caused their skin to sting and burn.
And when the holy spear pierced their abdomen, the burning sensation was even more excruciating.
Pain! So much pain!
Intense agony tore at their nerves.
However, under Rosen's suppression, they could only endure it.
The screams of the Apocalypse Four Knights echoed through the sky of Hell.
When Rosen performed the contract on Death Devil, and she lifted her clothes to expose her lower abdomen, the woman's body made Rosen narrow his eyes.
On her snow-white skin, there was a neat incision from her chest to her pubic area.
Noticing Rosen's expression, Death Devil tilted her head and whispered, "I discarded all my internal organs in the past."
All her internal organs, from her five viscera and six bowels to her uterus, had been hollowed out, leaving only flesh and bones beneath her pristine skin.
And as Rosen carved the holy 紋 into her, Death Devil's expression remained unchanged.
It was as if pain simply didn't exist for her.
However, after the holy 紋 was successfully carved, she was surprised to find that the incision starting from her chest began to heal, and at the same time, her body felt a sense of heaviness.
That was because her internal organs had regrown.
With the three devils contracted, Rosen displayed their Blessing panels.
Since they had just been contracted, their basic attributes all started from the lowest rank, I.
However, their skills were all different.

"Life Deprivation"
Through gaze, touch, or barrier, applies an instant death effect to any number of targets; if the target cannot resist, they instantly drop dead.

"Death Servitude"

After killing a target, one can control them.
The three devils, after being modified as described above, retained their original abilities in addition to the enhanced skills already displayed on their panels.
However, a rough look suggests that the Death Devil Ji He's skills are overall the strongest.
A wide-range instant death domain.
As long as her own power is sufficient, she can completely wipe out Earth's civilization in the shortest possible time.
After all, ordinary people do not have resistance to instant death.
Once pulled into the Death Devil's domain, they will drop dead on the spot.
The second skill, although similar, is a subtle form of guidance.
With Ji He's current ability, she can completely cause the residents of an entire city to have suicidal impulses.
Given enough time, she can completely destroy the entire Earth's civilization without anyone realizing it.
While Rosen was checking the skills, the other four also looked at each other's skills.
Their most significant feeling now was the growth of their own power.
And from now on, they will no longer grow stronger due to fear, or weaker because humans cannot generate fear, but rather their own strength will be permanently increased as long as they persist in combat and training.
Although the price was to obey all of Rosen's commands from now on, it was not a big deal for them.
Devils themselves have a hierarchy.
Even the Apocalypse Four Knights would have conflicts due to their respective powers and ideological differences.
And Hunger had always been trampled underfoot.
