Bonus Attack

Devil Search
When you enter a dungeon, Ringo commands the demons to scatter throughout the dungeon and start searching. You can meet demons who went out to explore the dungeon to find items and recover strength.
Negotiation and Demon Contracts
Searching demon allies may introduce you to an enemy demon in a dungeon. By negotiating with the enemy demon, you can form a contract and make them your demon. The demon’s skills can be used by equipping it to a COMP. This will also change stats, so you can switch them out depending on the situation.
