603 Master-Slave Contrac (1/2)
”What's a master-slave contract?” Zhou Wen learned from Wang Mingyuan the two types of guardian contracts.
One was a Guardian contract. This contract was relatively fair. Both parties could terminate the contract at any time and had the right to give up on each other.
The second was the eternal contract that could only be terminated after one party died. Relatively speaking, it was relatively fair. However, Guardians had unlimited lifespans, so typically speaking, humans would die first before the contract could be terminated.
”I'm willing to sign a contract as a slave. Life and death depend on Master's will…” Grim Demon explained the effects and methods of the master-slave contract in detail.
After Zhou Wen finished hearing the description, he felt that the contract was excellent. Grim Fiend's life was at his will. Furthermore, if the master died, the Guardian would also die. It was perfect.
With the master-slave contract, Zhou Wen no longer needed to consider his previous worries. It was just too good.
”Since you are so sincere in your request, it wouldn't be nice for me not to agree. Alright, I'll agree to be your master,” Zhou Wen agreed readily.
”Who wants you to be my master? I want to invite… that lady… to be my master…” Grim Demon immediately said.
Zhou Wen's expression froze as he immediately understood what Grim Demon meant. Grim Demon wanted to sign a master-slave contract with Demonic Neonate, not him.
”You want to sign a master-slave contract with my Companion Beast?” Zhou Wen asked the black cocoon.
”Yes,” Grim Demon replied with certainty.
Could it be that Demonic Neonate really had a huge background when she was alive? Or could it be because of the Supreme True Demon Life Soul she has? Zhou Wen summoned Demonic Neonate again and pointed at the black cocoon, asking her, ”Do you know what that is?”
Demonic Neonate looked at the black cocoon and shook her head. Her tiny face was also filled with confusion.
”He wants to be your Guardian. Are you willing?” Zhou Wen asked again.
Demonic Neonate shook her head with a blank expression. It was unknown if she knew what a Guardian was.
”As you can see, she's unwilling to accept you,” Zhou Wen said to the black cocoon.
There was no sound from the black cocoon. Zhou Wen led Demonic Neonate out of the Demon Suppression Hall, but he didn't hear Grim Demon's voice again.
What's so different about Demonic Neonate? It actually made Grim Demon so reverent to the point of even being willing to sign a master-slave contract? Zhou Wen couldn't guess.
Thankfully, he had the mysterious phone. He planned on bringing Demonic Neonate here in-game to see the black cocoon's reaction.
The black cocoon in-game wasn't as intelligent as the Grim Demon in real life. No one spoke. Zhou Wen attempted to get Demonic Neonate to approach the black cocoon.
Demonic Neonate held the ancient sword and slowly walked to the black cocoon. She extended a tiny hand and pressed it on the black cocoon.
The demonic aura in the black cocoon immediately erupted and sent Demonic Neonate flying. Thankfully, Demonic Neonate seemed to have a high resistance to the demonic aura and wasn't injured.
That's strange. Demonic Neonate's strength isn't enough to fight Grim Demon. It can't even withstand the demonic aura he emits. Why does Grim Demon think so highly of her? He even said that he's afraid of her? Zhou Wen couldn't figure out the crux of the problem.
However, Demonic Neonate was somewhat odd. After coming into contact with the black cocoon and the demonic aura, she began to take the initiative to attack the black cocoon. She even opened her mouth as though she wanted to bite the black cocoon.
Although the demonic aura forced her back time and time again, the powerful demonic aura could not harm Demonic Neonate's body. However, Demonic Neonate's strength was still too weak, so she failed to break through the demonic aura's defenses.
