Departure

The palace:

"Dad, you said we'd be going for an adventure today! Where are we going? Is it going to be fun? Are we going to beat up some bad people?" 

Dahlia seemed unusually excited today. It had been another two months and everyone had met their breakthrough quotas, officially becoming ready for Simon's next big adventure. Simon's only task left was the ceremony he proposed a few months ago. If he could promote all of his disciples to devils, he would not have to worry about their bodily limitations as much as he would if they stayed human.

For starters, Devils are naturally stronger than humans of the same level. That is an undeniable fact, also the main reason Simon wants them to undergo the metamorphosis. Even if devils are shunned in the higher realm that he was planning on going to, he could still create random techniques to help his disciples and everyone else blend into the world as 'humans'.
