Power stones plzzz.

Asmodea nodded. "Yes, that\'s right. It was a long time ago, but I remember it well. I made the decision to sacrifice my physical abilities to gain a foothold in the Pillar Division."
Alex looked at Asmodea in awe. "That\'s incredible. I had no idea that you had gone through something similar. It\'s amazing that you were able to overcome such a disadvantage."
Asmodea smiled. "Thank you, Alex. It wasn\'t easy, but it was worth it. I was able to use my other senses to compensate for my loss of sight, and I developed other abilities to make up for my lack of wings. It was a difficult path, but it made me the strong demon that I am today."
Alex looked thoughtful. "It\'s amazing how much we can achieve when we\'re willing to make sacrifices. I can see now why Batibat was willing to do what he did."
Asmodea nodded. "Indeed. The path to power is not always an easy one, but it can be a rewarding one if we\'re willing to put in the work."
Alex smiled. "I\'m grateful for the lessons you and Batibat have taught me today, Asmodea. It\'s given me a new perspective on what it takes to be strong."
Asmodea returned the smile. "You\'re very welcome, Alex. It\'s always a pleasure to share knowledge and wisdom with those who seek it."
"From what I hear... That is one hell of a kickass move right there. Where do you stand, and where do the others stand?" Asked Alex to Asmodea.
Asmodea calmly responded to Alex\'s question, explaining that she found nothing remarkable about Batibat\'s method of gaining entry into the pillar division.
Asmodea then shared that she was the oldest member of the Pillar of Lust and had been part of the group for many years. She also mentioned that Orcus, another member of the group, had used a similar tactic to gain entry into the Pillar of Lust a decade after she did.
Asmodea noted that Orcus had been a friend of hers before he joined the group and copied her strategy.
She went on to explain that the competition was a common method of selecting new members for the pillar division.
Asmodea stated that it was a way to ensure that only the strongest and most skilled individuals were admitted, as the Pillars were tasked with protecting the demon lord and carrying out his orders.
Asmodea also emphasized that gaining entry into the Pillar of Lust was just the beginning, as members were expected to continually improve their skills and serve the demon lord with unwavering loyalty.
She spoke of the many challenges that the Pillars faced in their roles, including battling other powerful demons and carrying out dangerous missions.
In conclusion, Asmodea did not see Batibat\'s unique approach to the tournament as anything special, as she herself had gone through the same process. She instead focused on the challenges that came after joining the Pillar of Lust and the dedication and skill required to succeed in the role.

Alex asked Asmodea, "Are you aware of the reasons why Orcus doesn\'t speak as much?"
Asmodea responded, "Well, before Orcus became a member of the pillar, he used to speak quite a bit. However, after his appointment, he was speaking with the lord who came before our current lord. The lord told him, \'You are aware of this, yet you speak too much.\' And since that day, Orcus has only spoken when necessary, such as when greeting someone, bidding them farewell, or discussing matters of utmost importance."
Asmodea went on to talk about their next destination, Limbra, and how she learned about the origins of the Pillar of Envy\'s sadistic tendencies. "Limbra is the next place on our list. I found out from her that she tricked a masochistic and perverse archmage into teaching her magic. This is most likely where she acquired her sadistic tendencies from."
Alex was surprised by this information and asked, "Is that the norm for pillar members to acquire their powers in such a twisted manner?"
Asmodea chuckled, "I would say that every member has their own unique story about how they became a pillar member. Some acquire their powers through intense training, while others have to resort to less conventional means. However, what matters most is that they have the strength and determination to maintain their position in the pillars."
Alex nodded in understanding and realized that being a pillar member was not an easy feat. Each member had their own story, and it was not for him to judge them.
"What should we make of Ruby? She appears unusual. Oh, you all are." Asked Alex.
"As a member of the mercenary gang, Ruby was known for her powerful magic, which she used to triumph over everyone else in the competition and earn her place in the Pillar of Lust. Her abilities have made her quite influential, and she now has close ties with the Princess of Pride and the King of Sloth," Asmodea explained to Alex.
When Alex asked about Ruby\'s tendencies towards sadism, Asmodea urged caution, stating that while Ruby was highly skilled in teaching magic, her cruelty could also manifest itself in unexpected ways. As for Ruby\'s unique qualities, Asmodea suggested that Alex ask Ruby directly, as she was in the best position to answer the question.
Regarding observation that everyone in the Pillar of Lust was unusual, Asmodea chuckled in agreement. "Yes, we are all quite unique in our own way," she said. "But that\'s what makes our group so powerful. Each of us brings something special to the table, and when we work together, there\'s no challenge we can\'t overcome."
