-------
"The soul contract is fulfilled, the servant is Gusion, the fourth demon of the Hell Orb, hereby devoted to the Master!" Said the creature kneeling before Theo.
This being who called himself Gusion, despite being seen kneeling down and recognizing Theo as Master, still had pride in his eyes. From the look in his own eyes, there were points of displeasure having to serve Theo.
Gusion is a demon race with the shape of an An.jing-headed human body. He also holds a large stick. At the end of the stick, there is a triangular piece of iron with the symbol of an eye in the middle.
"For the ability and also the conditions that you must fulfill to call me in the future, all will be transferred directly into your mind after all the procession is complete!" Gusion continued.
Then without waiting for any answer from Theo, he cupped his hands to his chest, as if greeting. A moment later turned into a streak of black fog, disappearing in nothingness.
Along with Gusion's disappearance, the tattoo seal on Theo's forehead re-ignited, followed by his eyes turning jet-black.
It was then that all the information regarding Gusion's abilities, as well as any conditions that had to be met for his summoning entered into Theo's brain. Gave him all the information in great detail.
This condition lasted for a while, until then slowly the light in the tattoo seal began to dim, as soon as Theo's eyes also began to return to normal.
"Hahhh…. "
The process that looks simple and not too long, in fact greatly affects Theo's mental state, making him breathe heavily after all the procession of the soul contract is completed.
"It's terrible, but it's also amazing!" Theo said, once his condition returned to normal. He still seemed to have a bit of trouble processing all the information that was suddenly forcefully crammed into his brain.
"Hmmm... lowly human!"
When the atmosphere was still silent, a voice could be heard breaking the silence.
The one who spoke was none other than Arthur, this creature or demon, having the body of a child, a lizard-headed with a tongue that kept sticking out. While the wide crow wings also stretched out on his back, these wings continued to burn with pitch-black flames.
Everyone in the location now would not want to look at the creature with a checking gaze.
"Hmm. Stop looking at me with your disgusting looks! You lowly creatures!" Grunts the creature, when it feels the center of attention of everyone.
"My name is Barbatos, the eighth demon from the Hell Orb. And with this, I am forced to call you Master!"
"Ck.why is a lowly human like you, able to qualify for the contract to call me! This is so shitty!" Grunts Barbatos again, while looking at Arthur with a very disdainful look.
In contrast to Gusion, who though also has points of compulsion in his eyes, still maintains a polite attitude to Theo. Barbatos herself blatantly says she was forced to acknowledge Arthur as her master.
Hearing and seeing the belittling attitude of Barbatos, Arthur who is basically a child who does not want to lose, now begins to look upset.
Despite being a little afraid of Barbatos, in order to maintain his pride, Arthur stepped forward. With trembling hands, he then pointed towards Barbatos.
"Based on a rancid brat, never dare to say that to me!" Snapped Arthur, with a little stammering.
With his middle finger that had pointy nails, he pointed at Arthur's forehead. An extremely dense aura of darkness also started to come out from Barbatos' body. This aura immediately suppressed every single person present in the location.
"Well man, watch your words! if only I hadn't been sealed inside that fucking Orb! In this instant you will also die with a charred body, not telling a pinch of hair!" Grunts Barbatos, right in front of Arthur's face.
The intense pressure and mental attack carried out by Barbatos, immediately made Arthur who from the beginning had trembled somewhat in fear, fall on his knees to the ground.
"Hmmm... lowly base!" Grunts Barbatos again, after Arthur falls to his knees before her.
"You've heard the explanation from Gusion to the other young man who has also made the contract, so I'm not wasting my breath on repeating it." Barbatos said again, then her body began to disappear into a streak of black fog, just like the way Gusion disappeared.
Along with the disappearance of Barbatos, the same process happened to Theo before, now experienced by Arthur. The seal tattoo on his head lit up, followed by both of his eyeballs starting to blacken.
"Hahh…. "
"What the fuck was that?" Arthur asked the empty air. After getting all kinds of information about the devil and his summoning inside his head.
"That was the contract procession of the demon soul! Uhuukk…." Said Alejandro, who from earlier observed in silence.
"I already knew that, all the information had entered my head in a very strange way and it made me very uncomfortable!" Said Arthur.
"What I'm asking is, why the demon I contracted, has a very different nature to the one contracted by Boss!" Arthur continued, with an expression between annoyance and fear.
"Uhukk.. That's natural, the ones you managed to contract are high-level demons, they are 2 of the 10 strongest demons sealed within the Hell Orb!"
"And any demon who entered the top 20 strongest demons, would still be able to maintain their true nature."
"Just like humans, the nature of each demon is also different. So, maybe it was your misfortune, despite successfully contracting a powerful demon, but it had a very wild nature."
"Despite that, you can calm down a little, after all, they are bound in the ancient seal that is in the Hell Orb, so that it will not be able to act as it pleases." Alejandro said, closing the explanation.
"Huhh.. Still this sucks!" Grunts Arthur, still can not accept.
"Already, as long as you know, you are people with a very special path of destiny, on the way my family held the Hell Orb, never once did anyone manage to make a contract with the 10 strongest demons."
"So you guys are the first. Uhuukk…. Uhuukkk….!" Alejandro again coughed violently while spitting out a lot of fresh blood.
"Senior!"
Theo who had been silently observing and trying to absorb everything he had experienced, now seemed worried about Alejandro's condition.
"Young man, my time is not much, after this I will make a final distraction. You guys take the chance I made, to get out of here!" Alejandro said, stammeringly.
"To.toloong. hahhh." Alejandro again wanted to say something, but his words were stifled. His breathing grew heavier, he was not even able to speak anymore.
Seeing that, Theo immediately clasped the hand of this old man.
"Senior, I also believe, that this meeting of ours is destiny. Before, you probably didn't owe me anything. However, the Hell Orb that you entrusted me to hand over to your son, has indeed benefited me."
"So, this can be called debt! Believe me, I will carry out your last message with all my heart!" Theo said, with eyes full of sharpness.
Hearing that, Alejandro who was already unable to make a sound, only smiled warmly. Simultaneously with his smile, an extremely dense Mana of darkness began to pour out from within his body. And ended up focused into the realm of his soul. Compacted right inside its Element Seed.
Theo, now aware of what Alejandro was about to do, began to tighten his arms. A moment later with a warm smile as well, he let go of her hand.
"Good bye!" Theo guman.
After that, while still maintaining his Ice Projection technique, along with Arthur and Aria, he began to slowly walk away. Keeping their location unreadable by Beladro who still destroy the surrounding environment.
After being a little far away…
*Booooommm……!!!!!
The explosion was so loud that Alejandro blew himself up.
Along with the explosion, Theo unleashed his technique, then quickly ran away from the area.
