The young talent of the beastman race, scratched his horn in bewilderment looked at the tribe chief and was in the same situation, he even forgot that he was angry a moment ago, as he did not receive any instructions from the tribe chief, the young genius spoke, — Ahh, the tribe chief, the great Barbara one, told Bo Barbaro that becoming the young lord's warrior, glory and protection for the tribe. Bo Barbaro will be the strongest young man in the tribe, and the chief also said that young lord would make Bo Barbaro very strong. — said Bo Barbaro.
— So, you came to me seeking glory, strength and protection for your tribe? — John asked curiously, Bo Barbaro nodded.
John looked at Beatriz, "Beatriz, what brings you to me? Have you compiled or do you have something you want to achieve?" John asked two questions.
Beatriz's eyebrows rose for a brief moment, she glanced briefly at Kassandra and then spoke, — Young man, I have goals that I intend to achieve in the future, as the matriarch of the clan said, my potential is being limited by the clan, so I saw the opportunity to grow in strength quickly in order to achieve my goals — Beatriz spoke to.
John looked at her, Kassandra shook her head, she knew her discipline well that was why she wanted to help as much as she could, however the Young Lord was someone she could not predict.
— What are the goals you want to achieve? — John asked, Beatriz with her clear blue eyes full of truth said, — Forgive me young sir, my goals are just for me to know, I hope for the young sir's understanding. -
John gently, — Beatriz, you don't seem like a naive girl to me, quite the opposite, tell me one thing, being a somewhat pretty little girl, aren't you afraid that I might be enchanted by your beauty and claim you as my property? — John said with a mischievous smile, a smile that he would never do in front of Iza.
Kassandra made a strange face at John's question, Barbara and Bo Barbaro looked at each other, seeing the confusion in each other's eyes, on the other hand the transparency in Beatriz's eyes did not waver, she looked at John and said, — As long as my goals are achieved I don't care about the rest, even if the licensee claims my body I won't care. — Beatriz said firmly in her words.
John sent with Beatriz's words, when he was about to say something else, he saw Iza approaching, her hair was tied in a French braid, she was wearing a blue dress with white stripes, in her hands she carried two folders of documents, she walked until she was close to John.
John looked at her and, without caring about others, he ran his hand through Iza's braid in a gesture of affection. Iza was happy with the rest of the affection, but since there were strangers, she blushed with embarrassment. To hide it, she said quickly: "John, here are the documents you asked for."
Everyone on the balcony felt embarrassed, but once this young gentleman showed them something they weren't expecting, John received Iza's documents, — Very good, you did a great job, — congratulated John, Iza's eyes almost shone with joy, then John passed the documents, one to Kassandra and another to Barbara.
— Chief of the tribe, matriarch of the clan, take a look — John said, the two leaders cautiously examined their respective documents, while reading the expressions of both varied, perplexity, disbelief and finally joy.
The document concerned the two neighboring regions, in it was written a new contract that brought enormous benefits, the lord would reduce the value of the tax charged annually by 30%, the lord would also offer the two regions work materials for a period of 2 years, there were several other benefits.
— With that, I hope everything is resolved. — John said, crossing his arms, the two leaders nodded and said in unison, — Yes, we have nothing more to complain about — even with that said, they didn't seem entirely satisfied, they felt like they had been deceived or robbed, however there was nothing they could do.
John looked at the two regional kingdoms and said, — I'm sorry I didn't live up to your expectations, however I have a proposal if you are willing to listen to it, I warn you now that it will be very dangerous, challenging and very difficult, so think carefully if you want to listen to it. —
The two regional geniuses did not look at their respective leaders this time, but instead looked at each other and began to think. After a brief moment of thinking, Barbarian Bo took the initiative to ask, "Young lord, if Barbarian Bo accepts the young lord's proposal, will Barbarian Bo bring honor and glory to the tribe? Will Barbarian Bo have the strength to protect the tribe?"
John smiled, looked at Bo Barbaro and said, "The glory and honor you bring to your tribe will be proportionate to your efforts. If you succeed, you will have strength, honor and glory that your tribe has never seen before." Bo Barbaro's eyes shone, a puff of white vapor came out of his nostrils and without hesitation he stood up, beat his chest and said, "I am a man, and I am a man. I am a man, and ...
— Bo Barbaro, you agree. — John smiled and looked at Beatriz, she looked at John with her beautiful blue eyes and said — I agree too. — John, keeping his smile, said — I will give you the opportunity to enter the evolution institute. —
For a brief moment the balcony fell into a deadly silence, Kassandra, Bárbaro one, Beatriz and Bo Bárbaro, none of them processed this information well, they all doubted their ears, Kassandra was the first to recover and asked, — Young lord... — John interrupted her saying — This is a proposal addressed to them and only they could accept or refuse it. —
After the two regional geniuses had composed themselves, Beatriz was the first to speak. "Young lord, what price should we pay for this opportunity?" Beatriz asked. With this question, it was as if a bucket of cold water was thrown over the heads of the two leaders. They thought, how could something like this be given for free?
John and Iza looked at each other and smiled at the same time. Then John thought that this girl, Beatriz, saw the world in black and white. In his past life, at this age, he would receive an ice cream from a stranger without asking if there was something he had to do in return. But then he remembered that it was the Institute of Evolution that they were talking about. Who else besides him would give himself the luxury of offering two places without asking for something in return?
Iza looked at Beatriz with half-closed eyebrows and questioned — How dare you doubt John's sincerity, he is clearly giving the two of them the opportunity to join the institute, you should accept and be grateful instead of doubting him — Iza snorted and pouted, John felt very good about Iza's attitude.
Iza made it seem like Beatriz was ungrateful and John was benevolent and was being wronged, the atmosphere became awkward on the balcony after a while John broke the awkward atmosphere by saying, — Don't worry, you won't give anything in return, just say yes or no. —
Beatrice said — Young lord, I will never forget your kindness no matter what the young lord orders, I, Beatrice Kisame, swear to comply without complaint. — Go on Bo Barbaro said — Bo Barbaro swears eternal loyalty to the young lord, wherever the young lord points, Bo Barbaro will run without complaint. —
The two leaders Kassandra and Barbaro one didn't even know what they were feeling, again this young lord gave them a surprise that they didn't even know how to digest, in this conversation with John their emotions were as if they were on a roller coaster, John smiled and said — Stand up. — after John told them to stand up three times, only then did they stand up.
Kassandra and Barbara one, the two took the liberty of thanking the young lord fervently, John was getting embarrassed, but thanks to his assistant Isa, she helped a lot with his attitude, when there was nothing more to be said, Kassandra, Barbara one, Beatriz and Bo Bárbaro, all left Venhorst Castle and returned to their respective regions.
***
A while ago.
Western continent.
The boy had no one he could call family or friend, there was only his sister's corpse to keep him company, he refused to bury his sister, because when he does that, then yes, he will be completely alone.
The boy summoned a demon from hell, the hideous demon not satisfied with the boy's offering decided to take his life to appease his anger and hunger, however the boy had a hidden plan for the demon from hell, using a deva level scroll from his family, he used it to summon a supreme entity from hell.
Previously the boy had constructed a demon summoning array from hell, as such a creature from hell was successfully invited, with the summoned lesser demon as the conduit, using a scroll from the deva realm, the conditions were met, now the boy could summon the avatar of any supreme entity from hell.
In the dark cave a circle of flames with countless figures and writings in the Baboan language outlined in complicated patterns, in the center of the array where two stars collide space was torn before the boy, without hope, there was no fear at all in the boy's eyes.
From the spatial hole a figure passed through, — how long ago? — the male figure took a deep breath, savoring the cave air, — hahaha hahaha hahahah — the demon smiled sinisterly, his pitch-black wings unfolded, the demon closed his eyes and savored his moment of parole.
After a while, the demon's eyes finally opened, he sensed everything around him, he looked with his red eyes, just like the other senses, he was limited to this cave by the array, in his eyes he could see a child boy and a human corpse, "Human cub, were you the one who summoned me?" the demon asked, the boy looked at the demon.
— Who are you? — Asked the boy, — Hahaha hahaha — laughed the demon, the sound of his laughter was not sinister this time, the demon took human form, he looked like an ordinary 30-year-old human being, — How bold you are, human cub. Don't make me waste my time, just die, the demon gathered in his hand a mass of demonic energy capable of reducing anyone to ashes, the mass of energy was pointed at the boy.
Boom
The mass of energy collided with the wall of the circular shaped array, the cave shook, but the boy and his sister's corpse were unharmed.
Boom
Boom
Boom
The Demon attacked three more times, but to his disappointment the matrix absorbed the attack. The demon looked at the boy, "Human cub, with the power of this body it would take a whole day to break this, how about you release me and I will spare your life?" said the demon. The boy looked at the demon and said, "12 hours at most," said the boy. The demon raised his eyebrows, "Huh?" asked the demon.
— This matrix will keep the selected demon for a period of 12 hours, there is no way for you to free yourself, now tell me what is your name, demon? — asked the boy, — hahaha hahaha — laughed the demon, — I thought you were just an ignorant human cub, so tell me what is your name, cub? — asked the demon.
— I asked first, — said the boy, the demon carefully examined the matrix and the boy, he smiled and said, — you are from the Menezes imperial family — the boy did not seem surprised, he looked at the demon with the same look as always, — I am the supreme being, the ruler of hell, — proudly declared the demon, the boy questioned saying — Really? You don't look like a ruler of hell — said the boy.
— I am, Kenny Menezes, the last one alive — declared the boy. The demon looked at the boy in surprise, — The last one alive? Hahahah haha, so the Menezes empire fell? Interesting, it seems I slept for a long time — said the demon, ruler of hell.
— Cub, what do you want from me? — asked the ruler of hell, Kenny Menezes pointed to his dead sister and said, — I want a pact to bring my sister back to life, can you do it? — asked Kenny Menezes, the demon laughed a little, — Cub, you are not qualified to make a pact with me, as I am the ruler of hell I can only make pacts with my herald — explained the demon.
— So, I became your herald — asked the boy, the demon looked at Kenny Menezes with disdain, — you? My herald? What a joke, that would be impossible — said the ruler of hell, Kenny looked at the ruler and said, — there is nothing that is impossible in the world, after all I already find myself before you — Kenny Menezes spoke confidently.
— You are right, but even if you are, there is no way you can become my herald, you don't even know what that implies, become a superior being of the fourth level, then come to me again, then I will consider whether you are worthy or not, — said the ruler of hell.
— This will take a long time, until then there will be no turning back for my sister, ruler of hell, under what circumstances would I become your herald? — asked the boy, the demon, ruler of hell smiled and said, — You become a superior being of the fourth level in two decades, — said the ruler of hell — a long time —, Kenny retorted.
The ruler smiled and said, "I can make you my herald right away, but you must pass my test first," the ruler said smiling. Kenny looked at the ruler and asked, "What test?" I will do it," Kenny said.
— Your enthusiasm pleases me, my son, the test is called eyes of darkness — said the ruler.
—eyes of darkness?— Kenny asked
— If you survive the implantation of the eyes of darkness, I will make you my herald — said the ruler smiling.
—What are the chances? — Kenny asked.
— 1 in 1,000,000 — said the ruler.
— Okay then, I have nothing left to lose, after all, even if I lose my life, who would care about that? — Kenny said with a decisive glow.
— 999,000 have already tried, you have a good chance, they all died, in the attempt to implant the eyes of darkness. — stated the ruler.
— What should I do now? — Kenny asked.
— Follow me back to hell, you and your corpse, I will truly take care of everything. — stated the ruler.
After these words, the ruler of hell transformed into his demonic form, his body combusting.
Boom
An explosion rang out, with his demonic body as fuel a black hole in space devoured the matter, the ruler's body was destroyed in the process, but a passage to hell was opened.
— Come in — the ruler's voice sounded on the other side of the passage, Kenny picked up his corpse sister and entered hell through the passage that closed behind him, the cave fell into ruins and collapsed.
