Starting the next loop—and for the following 100,000 loops after that—I dedicated every moment to breaking the four demons, both physically and mentally.
The main issue was the short duration of each loop. In our perception, only about four days had passed in total. Honestly, I would've appreciated it if the loops lasted a bit longer…
Anyway, after dying nearly a hundred thousand times, they were no longer the same.
Even Tharen—the so-called "toughest" among them—completely broke around the 70,000th mark.
I tried killing them in countless ways.
Friendly fire remained my favorite—it sowed distrust and drove a rift between the four.
Then came the classics: beheading, crushing, slicing, dicing... I even had my clones pull them apart limb by limb. I went through every torturous execution method I could imagine.
But that wasn't the point.
The real focus was when I figured out how to copy their abilities.
