*Ding! In the event of death, the host will be resurrected by the system. However, it only works if the host dies in this pocket dimension.
*Ding! Since it is the first time, the services are provided for free. The host can enable this feature beforehand by paying extra.
"Tch… avaricious," mumbled Mark before paying attention to the demon walking toward him.
Meanwhile, the three-headed demon with spider legs had its senses working at their peak, trying to understand the place he was at and the strength of the human who appeared.
He also seeks the answers from Mark as the latter is likely to be linked to bringing him to this strange place.
As the system was online and protecting Mark, the demon couldn't sense anything from the person.
If he was a lower-ranked demon, he would have probably assumed that Mark was a normal civilian. But, Bael is one of the kings of Ars Goetia who had 66 legions of demon army under his command.
Each legion comprising 6666 demons can easily destroy all the life on the planet Mark was living in. Perhaps, only supreme beings and demigods could survive by running away or hiding.
He is not a fool to assume that an average mortal could just drag him from his own world. It was obvious to him that the person standing before him is either a dragon in pig's form or he had a true god (14-circle) supporting him.
Both of his assumptions might be wrong but he was certainly curious instead of angry.
That helped Mark to strike up a conversation with the demon.
As the demon stopped walking about a few feet away from Mark, the latter introduced himself with his usual fake smile to cover his nervousness, "Hello, Lord Bael, my name is Lu Zhen. I'm a summoner and I wish to form a contract with you."
"Ho… as I expected." The demon let out a smile on his man's head. He then asked, "What are the terms?"
Seeing that the demon looked interested in the contract, Mark inwardly sighed in relief and firmly said, "Appear whenever I call for you. Destroy my enemies if asked. Protect my allies if asked. Be my messenger envoy whenever needed. If you have knowledge of rare materials in any world, please do give me the information. This is all I need from you."
Seeing that the demon is stronger than the god Yuqiang who gave him the holy beasts, Mark felt that Bael must also be knowledgeable. So, he added that condition in the end too.
And just like the system mentioned him, the demon took his terms seriously and went into thinking. Whether this will lead to an argument or even a battle entirely depends on the terms.
Unexpectedly for him, Demon King Bael didn't want to test his battle strength. Instead, he demanded life force in return.
"No…" Mark outrightly rejected it. After all, he wasn't desperate to get the help of a demon, unlike the desperate people who sign a contract with the devil in exchange for their souls. "Either change your terms or we treat it as if this meeting didn't place at all."
He would rather waste this free chance than accept this deal involving his life force.
Bael observed the fearless human in silence. To understand this summoner's personality and thoughts, he decided to test him.
"Alright. I will use seven deadly sins against you. Based on your performance, we will negotiate the terms." Demon King Bael then closed his eyes and summoned seven ghostly spirits around him.
Mark was alerted by the demon's sudden actions and clicked on the lightning clone skill in reflex.
It appeared the same as the ghostly spirits while gaining the attention of Bael. "Hmm? An attribute cloning technique? That's a rare skill." He praised Mark before adding that a clone won't help him in this situation as the seven deadly sins are different. They cannot be avoided.
And before Mark even responded, his eyes had gone blank and his soul was transported to an illusionary realm where he found himself sitting at the table with dozens of varieties of delicacies.
It was like his consciousness is trapped inside a dream. For some strange reason, he didn't find anything amiss and was stuffing his mouth with the food, starting with the muffins.
Feeling an endless appetite, he continuously ate the food nonstop for atleast 30 minutes straight until his eyes fell on an apple pie.
As he took the slice of the pie into his hand, a sudden memory jogged in his brain. It was the memory of Alina serving him the pie for the first time. He tasted that dish after several years; hence, it was imprinted on his mind.
As soon as he realized that he was in the middle of a test, the remaining delicacies disappeared, replaced by dead insects like cockroaches, crickets, etc…
"Ugh…"
He spat out whatever was in his mind and coughed several times, staring at the table in disgust. Followed by that, he got angry at the demon. "That bastard… I will roast him alive…"
As he was enraged, a peal of laughter filled the place, followed by the words. "hehehehe… you seemed special, mortal. Not everyone could get out of Gluttony in such little time. However, this time, it will be different. Even if you realize that it is not reality, you won't be able to come out so quickly. Good luck…"
Mark felt dizzy and fainted on the spot as the surroundings disappeared, followed by the change in the scenery.
As he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on a king-size bed without any clothes. There were a couple of extremely beautiful-looking ladies, one on each side, sleeping beside him.
They looked so hot that Mark couldn't resist himself touching them. As one of those women slept like she wasn't feeling anything, the other woman was forcefully woken up and found Mark exploring her body.
She felt aroused and let out a sexy moan as she grabbed his arm but didn't stop him.
Giving off a lecherous gaze, he didn't even bother to greet her good morning and just directly went into action.
The loud moans of the woman filled the room for a while until the door burst open all of a sudden and a blond-haired woman in luxurious attire entered with a serious look.
Mark stopped whatever he is doing and turned his head to look at the woman, "Oh, Hey Rachel. Want to join us?"
"We don't have any time for that now, Mark." She raised her hand to show a tab in her hand.
As he sat on the bed, a woman named Rachel played the video and gave it to him.
On the screen, a video was played where a group of prisoners was being executed by guillotines.
Mark's veins bulged, his eyes reddened, and there was a clear look of anger on his face.
Throwing away the tab in fury, he growled, "That weak island country dared to go against us? Pass the message to the generals that we are going to war. I'll give them an hour."
He quickly dressed up and left the room without bothering to converse with his wives anymore.
As he came out of the palace, Mark's eyes fell on a large army of robots with advanced weapons in their arms. He gave them an hour but it only took a few minutes for his army to gather.
Allen was standing in front of them. Everyone fell onto their right knee and bow to their king.
Mark fell into a daze for a couple of seconds as he stared at Allen.
A series of blurry memories and words appeared in his head.
"Allen, you may call me big brother" "Allen, slice that arm" "Allen, make me breakfast" "Allen, clean the store" "Allen is my younger brother. He is not someone you can put a price on, Lady Lin" "Allen, crush her throat" "Allen, you will have to find a hobby that you can enjoy" "Allen, you don't need to compete with Alina"
Eventually, he managed to get out of those thoughts and nodded. "Rise…"
As they got up, he announced, "Today, we are going to wipe out the land of japan from the planet. Hail Genesis…"
"Hail Genesis," roared the androids and robots as they saluted him.
But then, Mark's expression changed once again as blurry memories disturbed his concentration.
"From now onwards, your code name will be Genesis, Mark." "I name the store with the name attached to my life, Genesis" "Welcome to Genesis Weapon store"
"What the hell is going on?" He wondered.
