Malum first didn’t want him but was forced to use him in a moment with Malum seeing the power of Gluttony when his life was threatened, he decided to start using it. How much will Malum grow with his partner Gluttony who just follows him “to not get his pride hurt” (never wrote a novel before so I try it as good as I can)
