Chapter 547 544. The Winner Takes All, The Loser Turns to Dust II
"They died?" I clarified in shock. In reflex, I turned to Sarael and Tania in turn, seeking answers from them.
Judging from how neat the cell was, I was sure it wasn't both of them who killed them. I saw no sign of battle either so I was sure they died by themselves just like how Letos killed his assistant at the conference. But I wanted to make sure my guess was right.
"Of course. It's Letos after all. What do you expect?" scoffed Sarael with his trademark arrogant tone.
'Ah.. right that Servant's Mark,' I thought.
The fact that I was planning on using the same method to them somehow bothered me. But hey, they were my enemy. So turning them into my servants sounded better than dying or staying in prison for the rest of their life. While Letos turned to those who were loyal to him and took their freedom completely.
Well, I admitted I wouldn't waste this ability either. Maybe, in the future, I would use it to tie up someone who troubled me. It was better to take them on my side as long as they agreed with it rather than wasting their life. Still, I would give them all of the choices since what I did was no different from slavery and it was against human rights.
'Wait… but they are not humans.' And slavery was a common thing in the dark dimension.
A random thought crossed my head.
'Wait… but they are not humans.' And slavery was a common thing in the dark dimension.
'Then if I do, is that considered legal?' I thought again. Somehow my brain could replay Lord Damon's nag about my human morality and stuff.
"You shouldn't spare their lives, Damian. You know how tough the dark dimension is." Nefaris' warning dispelled my random thoughts. Her seriousness was evident in her tone of voice.
"I can't say it's really 'to spare their lives'. I planned to make them my servants," I explained once more before I returned my gaze to the cell as a long exhale out of my mouth.
"I am Licheri's new ruler. I have many things to learn. And these people--- "My words stopped as I pressed my lips in awkwardness before I continued.
"—I mean, demons, have been helping Letos for hundreds of years. I'm sure they know a lot of things about this city," I explained. And if none of them agreed with that, I could use my Mind Corruption on them. Either to read their mind so I could do everything easily or rewrite their memory and make them help me. Well, the second one was the last option, in case I couldn't replace some important demons.
"It is a smart move. But-" Sarael fixed her eyes on the cell and smiled wryly.
"I don't think Letos will let someone take his hard work away. He's a typical demon who would rather destroy everything he has than see someone else take it away." Followed by a shrug.
"Well, I will also do the same with him. I won't let someone else take what's precious to me." It sounded like a confession, but his tone reminded me of a possessive bastard in a cliché dark romance movie.
"That sounds selfish," replied Tania. A frown appeared on her forehead.
He glanced at her and smirked.
"You know me. You know how bad my obsession is," he seduced.
It made Tania blush and turned to the other side.
"I hate that side of you," she said in a much lower voice.
Suddenly, he grabbed her by the waist and pulled her into his arms shamelessly. Their eyes met each other.
"I know you love that side of me," he said confidently.
I cleared my throat.
"Ehm, you should get a room," I complained. They acted as if this world only belonged to the two of them.
But Sarael replied to me calmly.
"Say the one who did public play in front of the demon hunters and his own father," he mocked mercilessly.
'Damn it...' I grumbled internally. I pressed my lips and looked the other way in awkwardness since what he said was true.
But Nefaris showed another reaction.
"Oh, kinky~" A mischievous smirk on her lips as she came closer to me and hugged my arm tightly.
"I like that. Why didn't you ever tell me? We should try it later."
"Sure. But I need you guys to focus on the problem," I emphasized.
"What's the problem?" asked the three of them in unison.
I looked at them with a flat stare for a moment with a frown on my forehead before I spoke again.
"I just took over the Licheri. That's the problem." It was simple logic, how could they not understand? Even the modern human reign usually had a transition period before a leader carried out his duties. But in my case, there hadn't been anything like it since I overthrew Letos. So I had to think in my way to understand all the jobs. To make it worse, I wasn't from the dark dimension, to begin with. So I was kinda fucked up.
Yet they didn't catch my point.
"And?" asked Nefaris in confusion.
"I need more staff to help me. That's why I need them," I pointed out what I meant. My hand gestured on the cell. My traces of annoyance were evident in the tone of my voice.
"Oh, you can use Demon's Reign for that," replied Tania lightly.
I lowered my hand and frowned.
"What?" I asked her to explain more.
"Demon's Reign. The territory's core. The king said Letos put it in the city monument," Sarael explained in annoyance as if it was something I should have known.
"You mean, Letos' statue in the middle of the city?" I clarified. It still didn't explain what the connection was.
"Yeah. Same thing," he answered in the same tone.
To which I replied with a wryly smile.
"Okay, can you explain to me what's that?" I asked without further ado.
