Rise Of The Eternal King 55 Interesting Surprise

Now, this not only surprised him but also interested Saito much. He questioned them with a stern look, "What do you mean? Are you not his wife?"

"I am his wife, and this is my child, but please do not take us back to him. He sold us to these demons!" She revealed a piece of shocking information to Saito.

"What did you say? Sold you to these demons? Then why would he place a mission to rescue the two of you?" He questioned her as his expression turned grave by every single second.

"I do not know. But the other people who were in the cage were adventurers who had been captured by these demons. They also came to rescue us." When she spoke this, she had a fearful look over her face.

Understand the whole situation, Saito started to think 'I see… That man made a deal with the demons that he would supply them, humans. Perhaps it's a certain quant.i.ty of humans for an unknown cause. The demons kept the two of them alive so that the mission could be kept ongoing.'

'But why did he feel the need to obey the demons? If he is back in Human Territory, there is no way that the demons can hurt him there. Or is there any way they can? Besides, why did the demons not kill all the other humans? Other than sealing their magic, they looked pretty much fine. So why?'

He decided to think about these questions later as he stared at the horrific reaction of this mother and son. He asked them, "Very well… Both of you tell me your names. My name is Edwin."

"Sophie Whalen and he is Alferd Whalen." She replied back with both their names. The boy looked like he was around 10-11 years old while she was in her early 30's.

It seemed as she was pregnant with the boy in her teenage years. Looking at Alferd reminded him of Lyra's little brother Reus. Both of these kids were very young, and they had blonde hairs.

Though Alferd seemed to have short hairs with a lighter shade of blonde hairs than Reus. Reus had a darker tone with longer hairs. The colour of their eyes was also different, Reus had the Emerald coloured eyes while this boy named Alferd had dark red glowing eyes.

They looked incredibly pretty.

He was curious about one more thing, "Is he the son of Carl Warren?" This question surprised Sophie a little, but she shook her head.

"No. I was married to a marquis around 10 years ago, Alferd was born around that time. After around 3 years later, the marquis was a.s.sa.s.sinated, and I was captured together with my son. Those men sold me to Carl Warren. I wanted to run away as soon as I could, but he threatened me with the life of my son." She explained to Saito with a tearful expression.

It seemed as though she was trying to hold back her tears. Saito had a puzzled look and asked her, "Couldn't you just run away together with him? I mean, it has been 7 years since you are with that man. There is no way he can monitor you for so long."

With a helpless expression, she spoke out, "Sir Edwin, you use magic, so I think you would understand if you send your magic through my son's body."

Saito spoke out in his head 'Iris… Check their bodies. a.n.a.lyze them completely with the magic.'

[Roger Master!]

Just after a few seconds, Iris spoke within his head [Master… I have found a trace of a magic chain which seems to be very close to the heart of Alferd Whalen. It is formed through a contract, and the user of the agreement can kill him just by injecting a bit of the magic with the contract paper he must hold.]

"A contract, huh?" Saito murmured with a soft voice.

Sophie heard his voice and answered him, "Yes… He didn't make a contract with me because he knew that I wasn't scared of death. I would have very well killed myself to escape from him, but I don't want my child to die. He made a contract with my child so that he could kill him if we ever run away or I don't follow his orders."

"And if my guess is right, he would be able to find out your location when he has activated the contract. Capturing you and selling you to someone else." She didn't even bat an eye and nodded her head since she expected this.

Shun was about to tell her his own plan when suddenly, they experienced a considerable force even within the Wooden Dome. The energy seemed to be transmitted through the ground, which was the reason why the Rings of h.e.l.l Flames turned out to be ineffective in stopping it.

Since it was supposed to be a figure as robust as the Great Demon King, he opened up some s.p.a.ce to get out of the Wooden Dome and ordered, "Joergen, go!"

Joergen appeared from within his shadow as he slowly ran towards the source of the shockwave. The collapse of the cavern didn't kill all the demons.

Lyra and Chloe made their way towards the demons which had seemingly surprised. Just as the demons were approaching Saito's, Wooden Dome.

Chloe was quick in using her skill "Heaven's Blessings: Enhance Spells". She used this skill on Lyra and boosted her magic by twice the amount.

Feeling the boost of sudden magic strength. Lyra was able to form Wood out of thin air, it suddenly appeared under the feet of these demons.

The Wood suddenly pierced through the demons. Three of the strongest Demons dodged the attack and turned around to take a look at Lyra and Chloe.

They seemed furious at the two of them. The three of the Demons understood that these two women were responsible for the fall of the cavern.

On one side, Joergen struck the Great Demon King who seemed to be in charge of the area. The Great Demon King was standing near a huge statue made out of bones.

Saito did notice it as he opened up the dome to let Joergen pa.s.s through. He wondered whose statue it was, but he didn't keep it in his mind for long.

He closed the opening to the dome once again, right now, it was better to protect these two. He has to take them far away if he wanted to deal with this Great Demon King.

Besides, Joergen was strangely agitated and wanted to fight. It seemed as though the loss against Prince Rai weighed on its mind more than Saito had imagined.

The anger was still within Joergen, but it didn't show it to Saito or anyone else. It was an excellent opportunity to release its anger on this Great Demon King.

The Great Demon King had a height of 5 meters, it was enormous as compared to a 2 meters Joergen, but the size didn't scare him.

Joergen bashed its horn against the Great Demon King and used the skill 'Thunderbolt.' It was useful in making the Great Demon King take a step back, but there didn't seem to be any significant damage.

The Great Demon King had a feral grin as it said, "You made a huge mistake of coming here at this time. I shall offer all your souls to the Demon G.o.d Alvaneth."

Saito could hear his words and thought 'Demon G.o.d? The f.u.c.k… The Demon Lord isn't the highest?!'

[Demon G.o.d is an existence which is expected to be more than 1000 times stronger than a Demon Lord. It is recommended for Master to run away as soon as you encounter a Demon G.o.d]

Suddenly, the Great Demon King jumps up and speaks the name of the skill, "Demon G.o.d Crus.h.!.+" As the name suggested, it crushed Joergen in nearly an instant. Joergen squealed out in pain, "Haah!"
