Abiding The Contract

Black Heart Demon was instantly dumbfounded.

He was originally flustered and exasperated, and it was just a casual remark, but who would have thought that Lod was so ruthless that he actually summoned it!

The most important thing was...

The entire summoning process was extremely simple, and it could even be said to be somewhat blinding. Without any spell medium, just a stomp of his foot had summoned Mephisto!

This was great, he had blown his own horn!

Black Heart Demon was suddenly drenched in cold sweat. He had a premonition that he would be beaten up badly, and it would be a combined dual-style fight!

There was no need to say anything about Mephisto. His son had secretly left home to become a monk, and he had to steal his things to start a new life in the human world. There would definitely be a lot of people who came from a fatherly education.

As for Lod...

Later, when he and Mephistopheles confess, they would send out that spell was fake. At that time, he would have to let him experience his uncle's love.

After this beating, would he still be able to live?

Black Heart Demon swallowed his saliva, his eyes unconsciously glancing to the side, trying to find a way to escape.

However.

Before the Black Demon could put his thoughts into action, Lod seemed to have seen through his intentions. He pointed at hollow, and his spiritual energy condensed into six pieces of light, binding him in place.

"Bakudo #61: Six Rods Prison of Light!"

The degree of restraint of the six pieces of light was not very strong for him. He could break free instantly if he forced it to explode.

But the problem was...

A slender, white palm landed lightly on the Black Heart Demon's head. When he felt Spiritual Power coming from the palm, he instantly dispelled the thoughts of the Black Heart Demon. He raised his head and looked at him with a slightly playful gaze, causing his heart to turn completely ashen.

Escape?

Stop messing around!

If there was even the slightest movement, the destructive energy contained in the palm would shatter his brain in the next second!

The life force of a demon was strong, but it was not strong enough to be alive even if its head was smashed.

Moreover, with Mephistostanding at the side, even if he wanted to use magic, he could not do it. Although he was not strong enough in the human world, it was still easy to stop him from escaping.

While Black Heart Demon was trembling, Johnny and Carter held their breaths, not daring to say a word, for fear of attracting Mephisto's attention.

Mephisto vaguely threw a look at Black Heart Demon, and then met Lod with a bright smile on his face. He said, "Mr. Carl is really amazing. He only used such a short time to complete my commission. I believe that he will soon be able to compete with us for the position of 'Satan'."

Compete for the position of 'Satan'?

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was interested.

Carter Slade, Johnny Blaze, and the Black Heart Demon, who were present, changed their expressions drastically when they heard Mephisto's words, and their hearts were in turmoil!

As the last Son of Hell, Black Heart Demon was abandoned by him, but he was still very clear about the weight of the word 'Satan'!

Among the numerous Demon Kings who wielded the shards of Hell,

There are no more than five who are qualified to compete for the word 'Satan'!

And having the qualifications to compete for the position of Satan means that it must be a powerful Demon King of Hell!

Although Mephisto had always had the habit of talking big, and his words were half true and half false, the key information was not Satan, but the origin of this man. He was actually one of the Demon Kings of Hell!

So that was how it was...

Black Heart Demon looked at Lod with a hint of understanding in his eyes. This man was the same as Mephisto, the Demon King who controlled one of the Hell Fragments!

On the other hand, Johnny and Carter, after hearing Mephisto intentionally or unintentionally reveal that Lod was the Demon King of Hell, their faces instantly became ugly as if they had eaten shit!

Although all the signs before had vaguely revealed that Lod's strength was biased towards hell, they would never have imagined that this man was not only one of the Demon Kings of hell, but also had the qualifications to compete for the position of Satan!

As Lod stroked the head of the Black Demon, he held a playful smile and said, "Old Meph, I have completed your commission. Should I fulfill your promise now?"

"Of course, no problem."

Mephisto held his walking stick with both hands, and the wrinkles on his face bloomed like chrysanthemums. "According to our agreement, the Contract of San Venganza belongs to you."

Lod frowned slightly when he heard this. He said, "Old Meph, did you forgot something else?"

"Really?"

Mephistopheles was surprised. "I don't think so. Didn't I give you the contract?"

"My people are still in your hands. When are you going to let him go?" Lod said expressionlessly.

"Oh, you mean that man?" Mephisto pretended to be enlightened, and then his face revealed a trace of embarrassment. He said, "Although I really want to return him to you, it doesn't conform to our transaction content!"

Yes, this was Mephisto.

However, Lod had already guessed that Mephisto would definitely act shamelessly.

Therefore, he was not surprised at all. He just wanted to see what tricks Mephisto would play.

Lod calmly asked, "So, you want to go back on your word?"

"No, no, no... It seems that Mr. Carl must have misunderstood me."

Mephisto pretended to be surprised, as if Lod had wronged him. He even said with a hint of grievance, "When I signed the contract, I only promised to give you the Contract of San Venganza as a reward. When did I promise to return that man's soul to you?"

Johnny heard this and the corner of his mouth twitched unconsciously.

This feeling... was too familiar!

When Mephisto promised to cure his father, and later killed his father, he used this ugly face!

If not for the fact that he had no ability to resist, he would want to burn this damn red-skinned evil ghost to death!

"I understand."

Lod nodded slightly and said, "You mean to say that the content of our contract is only limited to the Contract of San Venganza, right?"

"That's right ---" Mephistopheles revealed a sly expression on his face. He smiled like a hateful profiteer and said, "But if Mr. Carl regrets it, you can also use the Contract of San Venganzap to exchange for your subordinates."

Lod's eyes revealed a trace of understanding. It turned out that Mephisto's goal was still a contract!

"No, you must not give the contract to Mephisto!" Seeing that Lod seemed to be tempted, Carter Slade could not sit still and shouted, "If he gets the Contract of San Venganza, the whole world will become hell!"

Pa!

Mephisto looked at Carter in disgust, then raised his hand and snapped his fingers. "It is a precious virtue and quality to remain silent when others speak. I hope you can remember it."

"Mm..." Carter's mouth was sealed by magic, and he could not speak. He could only stare at Lod anxiously.

"What he said makes sense."

Lod pondered for a moment and said, "I can still find a way to free my subordinate. There is only one contract, so we shouldn't exchange it."

"???" Mephistopheles was surprised.
