Other than faint scrapping within the old surface of the puppet, Leo hadn't noticed any noticeable changes within the puppet demon, still retaining its appearance since the day he had picked it up.

"If I absorb all of the lingering essence within the puppet's body, then the damage within its core might worsen, making it really impossible to fix."
