Chapter 512: Escape plan
Chapter 512: Escape plan
“Another demon?”
Ajax looked at the newly arrived elite demon general and raised his brows.
“So, do you want to know the progress of my missions?” The newly arrived elite demon general was none other than the sixth demon king himself.
However, Ajax doesn’t know that because all the demon kings have the cultivation of the King realm.
‘…’
Ajax didn’t reply to the demon king, who was using one of his servants’ bodies to come to the human world.
Instead, he silently thought, ‘Since the system was unable to evaluate his strength, then he is definitely an elite demon general. I need to be careful and escape from here.’
The system could not evaluate the cultivation of high-level beings. So, by default Ajax considered the newly arrived demon as an elite demon general.
With all of his trump cards, he could take care of a level 10 demon general; however, there was nothing he could do against the elite general realm cultivators. So, the first thing he thought was to escape from there.
“Don’t be shy,”
When he got no reply from Ajax, the demon king chuckled at him as he continued, “Since you are able to dodge my earlier attack, I will say that information you want to know.”
The demon king looked at Ajax’s summons while saying that.
‘Looks like I am going to kill a human genius who is a dual summoner. Not bad, not bad. It’s worth the trip,’ The demon king silently thought in his head and looked at Ajja before continuing, “Since you already know about the first and third purpose of my demon invasion. Let me tell you about the progress of the second one.”
The demon king took a small pause while looking at the main demon general and said, “I sent the famous Captain killer and his friend to kill the top three captains. In which, the demon killer is badly injured by the Captain Killer’s friend before he is saved by the guild master and the Captain killer himself is keeping an eye on the other two top captains.”
“Huh? Who are you? Why are you saying this to me?”
Ajax really didn’t understand what the newly arrived demon general was saying and why he was saying that. So, he asked him while thinking of a plan to escape from that place.
“Oh…my bad. I forgot to introduce myself,” The demon king smiled and continued, “I am the one that planned this invasion for those three purposes you already know. My name is Garreth and I am one of the demon kings of the demon world.”
He replied in a calm tone as the demon king introduced himself.
“What? A demon king?”
Ajax was shocked for a second as he could not believe his words; however, that shock didn’t last for much longer as he replied to the demon in front of him, “You are saying that a demon king and you came to watch over your servants? Haha…what a joke!”
Ajax started laughing after finishing his words which made the demon king angry.
According to Ajax, why would a demon king himself come to the human world? SoAjax felt the demon in front of him was not a demon king.
“You” The demon king was very angry with Ajax’s mocking; however for some reason, he didn’t attack Ajax yet.
‘Do you still have the stone with you?’
Instead of attacking Ajax, the demon king silently asked the main demon general about some stone through the voice transmission.
While talking with the demon in front of him, Ajax placed his hand around the main demon general in order to protect him from the one who is claiming himself a demon king.
When he heard the low voice in his head, the main demon general became silent for a second before saying, ‘Yes, Demon king. I have it. Please save me.’
The main demon general knew what would happen to him if he said that the stone was already used by Ajax on a demonic battle-axe. So, he lied without any hesitation.
“Human brat, if you hand him over to me, I will let you and your summons go away without killing. So, leave him,”
After hearing that the stone was still with the main demon general, the Demon king heaved a sigh of relief and calmly gave Ajax a choice to choose.
“Really?”
Ajax acted as though he was really excited but he knew that never to believe a demon much less a demon king.
“Yes, I will let you go as long as you leave him alone,” the demon king replied with a small smile on his crude face.
‘Once you leave him from your grasps, I will let you know the consequences of mocking me earlier…Hehe,’
Although he said that on the outside, inside his heart, he thought something else.
“Okay,”
Ajax knew that he could not do anything against the demon in front of him as he was sure that the demon was an elite demon general and even if he used all his trumps cards, he could never win against him.
“Good”
The demon king was satisfied with Ajax’s foolishness and thought, ‘Yes, just release him and go away from him.’
“Volcanis, Bane and others…thanks for your help. Now, go back and take a rest,”
Instead of releasing the main demon general, Ajax looked at his elemental spirits and the contracted spirit beasts and summoned them back into his inner world.
‘Even if you sent them back into your spirit consciousness, as long as I kill you, they will all die long with you…Hehe,’
The demon king had a great amount of patience. So, he was never in a hurry and waited for Ajax to summon back his summons and silently laughed in his head.
‘What should I do now?’
After hearing the demon king’s offer earlier, Ajax was planning to delay as much time as possible. So, that he could escape from the demon king because he knew that demons never keep their promises.
Moreover, he also knew that the demon king would definitely kill him as soon as he released the main demon general in his hands.
After summoning back his summons, he looked at his surroundings for finding an escape route from the demon king.
It didn’t take much time for Ajax to find an escape route.
It was not only an escape route but it was also the reason why he had come to the cursed abyss.
‘System, there should be the entrance of the ownerless dimensional crevice, right?’ Ajax silently asked the system in his head when he saw the same huge boulder he had seen in the map.
‘Ding,
Yes.
The system gave a reply to his question and confirmed the location of the ownerless dimensional crevice.
“What are you waiting for? Just leave him and go away from here,” The demon king finally felt something was not right and hurried Ajax to leave the main demon general.
“Nothing, I am thinking in which direction I should escape from and I found it,” Ajax was not in a hurry because he knew that as long as the main demon general was in his hands, nothing would happen to him.
With that thought in his mind, he slowly moved towards the entrance of the dimensional crevice with the main demon general in his hands.
