Chapter 145: I’m Entrusting My Son To You
Chen Zhao immediately got a headache from Beelzebub Zofee’s words.
Beelzebub Zofee was a great demon lord. How could Chen Zhao solve a big problem that even he could not?
Was this great demon lord favoring him a bit too much?
“What is it?”Beelzebub Zofee lifted his head and pointed at the sky above Obsidian Castle.
An enormous creature was circling around the castle with his wings fully extended, occasionally throwing out pillars of raging flames from his mouth.
It was the first time Chen Zhao saw a dragon that would only appear in Western mythology. He had red skin, a gigantic body, and continued attacking Obsidian Castle with his flames.
“This is the big trouble I was talking about.”
“Err… Lord Zofee, are you sure I can solve this problem? I’m no dragon slayer. I don’t think I can settle it if even you can’t.”
“I’m not asking you to defeat him. He’s my son, Obitos, whom you helped to deliver.”
“What? He… he’s your son? It’s just been about twenty days since he was born, right?”“He has two noble bloodlines in his veins, so his growth is rather special. His fire dragon bloodline awakened first. Now, whenever he cries or throws a tantrum, he’ll turn into a fire dragon and destroy everything around him. Since his birth, a few dozen of servants had been fried by him already.”
Even though Beelzebub Zofee was a great demon lord, he was still very much helpless because of his naughty son.
“How do you want me to help? I can’t even fight him, let alone discipline him.”
“You can summon him to the human world, before he kills all the servants in Obsidian.”
What? Isn’t he just trying to move the disaster to a different place?
With your son’s temper, I’ll only kill myself by summoning him to the human world.
“Rest assured. Because of the principles of the human world, his power will become much weaker and he wouldn’t be able to threaten you.”
“But how do I summon him to the human world? And it’s his true form. I’ve never summoned an actual demon.”
“As long as you offer sufficient sacrifices.”
“Sacrifices? You mean souls? I have two souls now. Is it enough?”
Chen Zhao had received the souls as a token of appreciation from the mudman whom he had treated.
He had no idea what these two souls could be used for.
“Don’t worry. I can supply those. I have enough sacrifices, but you need to build a Gate of Hell first.”
Gate of Hell? Maybe I can use that Gate of Hell, although it’s not complete.
“I believe… you’ll teach me how to build a Gate of Hell, right?”
“No, Gates of Hell are complicated. By the time you learn it, Obitos would have become an adult already.”
“Then how?”
“I’ll let Jessica go to the human world. She’ll be building the Gate of Hell.”
“Living Lord, this is my ritual implement. Please take it.” Jessica offered her demonic ritual implement to Chen Zhao.
“But if I summon Obitos to the human world, he’ll become my demon servant. Is that really fine?”
“Of course. To become a living human’s ally isn’t a humiliation to Obitos’ noble bloodline.”
“Jessica will become my servant too. Are you sure it’s fine?”
“Jessica will only go to the human world temporarily. There’s a time limit when you summon a demon with her ritual implement.”
“Zofee, I want to go to the human world too. I’ve never seen it,” Orris said.
“Orris, you can’t go. You’re a superior demon. I don’t have enough resources to send you to the human world, unless I sell Obsidian Castle away.”
“Projection. If only my projection goes there, we only need a small amount.”
“No.”
The only way to go to the human world was to become Chen Zhao’s demon servant.
Beelzebub Zofee would let his son and servant become Chen Zhao’s demon servants, but not his wife, not even her projection.
“Obitos, come down!” Beelzebub Zofee roared.
Obitos flew one round in the sky and then spouted a mouthful of dragon breath at Beelzebub Zofee.
Chen Zhao could feel his legs trembling as he stood beside Beelzebub Zofee. He was also in Obitos’ attack range.
The next moment, a huge red screen appeared above the party.
A pair of dragon wings had extended out from Orris’s back and covered the group. While her body did not change, her wings alone were several times bigger than Obitos.
Chen Zhao wondered how big her true form was.
Perhaps even larger than Obsidian Castle?
“Obitos!!” A fierce look flashed across Orris’s eyes.
As expected, Obitos obediently landed before Orris.
After all, naughty kids were most scared of their moms.
Obitos rubbed his head against Orris’s body, as if he was displaying his affection.
“Obitos, this is Chen Zhao. You should remember him. He’s the one who delivered you.”
Obitos approached Chen Zhao. Even though Chen Zhao knew that he would not be hurt, he was still stressed out by the enormous creature before him.
Obitos seemed to have felt a familiar smell from Chen Zhao. Sticking out his large and hot tongue, he licked Chen Zhao’s body.
Chen Zhao felt as if he just had a sauna. Even his skin turned red.
Suddenly, his arm started twitching, after which a mouth appeared on his hand.
“Oh yeah, what happened to my arm?”
“You now have my bloodline, but because you’re a human, you aren’t able to completely merge with a demon’s bloodline. Therefore, only your hand has changed,” Beelzebub Zofee said. “It can distinguish those who can threaten you from those who are harmless.”
“Can I not control it?”
“You can learn to control it. Anyway, Jessica will be beside you from now on. You can learn from her,” Beelzebub Zofee said.
“Do I have to stay for another day this time?”
“I’m afraid I can’t change that. You can use this opportunity to know Obitos better.”
Chen Zhao really did not want to be with Obitos, especially when it was only the two of them.
Nevertheless, Obitos really liked Chen Zhao, or at least he believed so.
Obitos held Chen Zhao with his giant mouth. Then, he took off and flew out of Obsidian Castle.
“Ah!!!”
It was certainly not an amazing experience. Chen Zhao wildly waved his limbs in the air. If Obitos let go, he would fall down at once.
Although he had no idea if he would die under the protection of the principles, he definitely did not want such an experience.
“Ahda, don’t you like to fly?”
“Ahda? Why do you call me Ahda?”
Chen Zhao knew demon’s language. He knew that “Ahda” meant kin.
“You’re Ahda,” Obitos said.
His answer really reflected the fact that he was just a child: pure and kind.
“Put me on your head. I don’t enjoy being held by your mouth.”
“Oh. Then in the future, Ahda will sit on my head.”
