Chapter 972 “A Demon’s Slave (4)”
“Okay.”
In this life, the only ones she personally took action to kill was that snake and the first elder’s goddaughter, and that’s only because both women wanted to either do her son harm or frame herself. As for those ancient creatures inside the Holy Domain, they’re nothing but illusions created by the great being who first managed to construct the secluded dimension.
Pity though, these humans are different from herself. They never showed mercy to the demons, only greed for material wealth when hunting others, and that’s something she already confirmed by tasking Fei Yi to probe the reasoning for the main conflict here in the border city.
“Dragony, I remember there is another kind of contract between humans and demons, that is the anti-contract correct?”
Its true human beings are able to contract various demons through a forceful ritual, but it also means it could work vice versa. The only real prerequisite was to have the demon be stronger than said human during the process, hence the common practice of the one commanding the ritual to always be stronger.
Curling those little brows, Dragony muses for a moment before answering: “I’ve just searched through my memories, I think there is such a contract Mother.”
“Good then,” Bai Yan pleasantly smiles, “go ahead and use the anti-contract on these people. I want them to be the Demons’ servant for the rest of their lives!”
The people in the pub were appalled by the demand.
They originally thought their enslavement only meant servitude like a lord to a subordinate, not something drastic like becoming a demon’s familiar!
“Yan Yan, contracts are divided into three types: equality, servitude and slavery.” Mo Li Shang decides to join in to offer his insight, “Equality is of course when both sides enter into a mutual contract on fair terms. Such a binding will do nothing but deeply bound both parties together through this method. As for the servant type, it’s the more commonly used one when someone wants to make another bound to them. However, once the master’s soul is destroyed, the servant in question will also die.”
Bai Yan didn’t question the authenticity of that knowledge.
She and Di Cang are also in a contract – the equality type – while Tsing Yi and Little Rice are in the secondary kind of servitude.
“As for the last slave type, it’s the harshest of them all. Whatever the masters says, the slave must obey the order to the teeth. If defied, the pain they would experience is worse than death itself, or so that’s what they say.” Mo Li Shang then casts his examining gaze across these people, that face showing no pity: “I believe the slave type is perfect for this bunch, after all, they’ve killed so many already so it’s only right they pay for their crimes.”
Back when he didn’t have Piggy (Moli) by his side, the teen himself never felt much from seeing the death of demons, but that’s changed through the relationship he shared with the little rascal. He wants equal treatment for his friend, whether it be demons or humans, everything must be fair.
Finding there are no reaction from the bunch yet, Bai Yan decides to give them a shove: “Now, make your choice. Become Dragony’s slave, or…. do you wish to take a swim in her stomach?”
Take a swim in her stomach?
Scared out of their wits, the first of them starts to cave: “Great lady, I’ll be a slave, please don’t have me go swim in her stomach.”
