Chapter 901 You“re Dead
“evan!”
it was a shock to sivir and the other members of the rose mercenary squad that their magic caster, who had fought beside them many times, chose to betray them at such a crucial moment.
evan’s hard shove sent eva staggering and falling to the ground. she looked at evan, who knelt in front of the demon begging for his life and even wanted to exchange their lives for his own. she was shocked and speechless.
the great hero, the powerful, knowledgeable, cool, and handsome elven magic caster, and the man whom she had given her everything turned his back on her without any hesitation. the perfect image he had cultivated collapsed. she couldn’t bring herself to believe what she had just witnessed.
how bad did a person have to be to do such an unspeakable thing?
at this crucial moment of life and death, eva had finally realized what a scum he was.
she laughed hysterically.
mag pressed a button in his pocket and picked amy up. he took a look at eva and found himself not feeling sorry for her at all. then he turned his gaze to evan, killing intent flashing across his eyes.
“you want me to let you live?” the ghost light demon looked down at evan, amused. rarely had he seen such an obedient elf. he held out his foot. “lick it clean, and i’ll let you live.”
evan raised his head to look at the foot. it was covered in mud, giving off a stink of rotten corpse. without a moment’s hesitation, evan moved closer and started licking the demon’s foot.
“you dirty dog!” scott swore angrily, clutching his sword.
the rest of the rose mercenary squad looked at evan as if they wanted to kill him themselves.
“hey, old man, do you like the taste of his foot?” amy asked out of curiosity.
evan stopped, but only for a second. then he went back to his life-saving job.
the demon enjoyed evan’s service so much that he put his killing spree on hold.
...
many mercenary groups were looking for herbs in the giant canyon five or six kilometers away. most of them were weak. they weren’t powerful enough to take on magical beasts, so they could only come to the giant valley to try their luck.
“guys, what is that?” a mercenary called out as he dangled from the cliff edge at the mouth of the canyon.
“that’s a distress flare. they were given out by the gray temple today. someone is in trouble. the elf hunters got them, probably.”
“what?! we’re only several kilometers away! it’s not safe here!”
“the people from the city lord’s castle and the gray temple, where are they? another mercenary group is going to be killed off!”
the news quickly spread to every corner of the giant canyon, causing a great commotion and panic.
soon, several stronger mercenary groups formed a team, and then dozens of mercenaries rushed in the direction of the basin. one flare after another flew up, dyeing the sky red, which was extremely conspicuous in the wilderness.
...
“the elf hunters are striking again, damn it!” brandli said when he saw the red sky. he was the captain of one of the teams responsible for hunting down the elf hunters, and he happened to be in the vicinity of the giant canyon. “fire a flare! the giant canyon!” he ordered.
the flare exploded, producing yellow colored lights, which turned into a big arrow pointing at the giant canyon.
many gray temple personnel rushed towards the canyon.
so did many mercenaries who had given up their missions.
they were well aware how strong their enemies were, but they could not let those outlaws take another life in the city they loved.
...
evan licked the demon’s foot until there was not a trace of dirt left. he then looked up at the demon with a sycophantic smile.
the demon dried the foot off with evan’s face and nodded contentedly. “good! i’ve never seen an elf as obedient as you. i didn’t intend to kill you, to tell you the truth. from today on, you’ll be my personal foot licker!”
the other demons and orcs burst into a loud guffaw.
evan flushed with anger, but he managed a subservient smile. “thanks, master. it’s my honor to serve you.”
dennis spat and looked at evan with disgust. “are you a man or a dog, evan? you spineless coward!”
scott laughed at evan. “i’d rather die on my feet than live on my knees! i wish you a long life as his dog, evan!”
a look of disgust came over sivir’s face. she should never have let him join the rose mercenary squad. now that he had completely defiled her team, she didn’t know how to face her father who had left the team to her.
evan could feel their eyes on him, but he couldn’t care less now. he moved closer to the demon on his knees. “kill them, master! kill them all! they’re too noisy. you can use the two women to warm your bed. they will make two perfect playthings. and don’t spare the kid!”
“time to go. those gray temple clowns should be on their way now. i love to watch them chasing after me.” the demon kicked evan to one side and looked at the rose mercenary squad, licking his lip with satisfaction. “your turn now. who wants to die first?”
they stared warily at the demon. sivir had a poisoned dagger ready in her left sleeve. eva was still lying on the ground, staring blankly into space. mag couldn’t tell if she was smiling or crying.
when his eyes fell on mag, the demon smiled. “you, bring the girl to me and lick my other foot clean. i’ll spare your life too.”
mag frowned. “what if i say no?”
“then you’ll die and she’ll still be mine.” the demon grinned, revealing his crooked teeth.
“no,” mag said calmly.
“then you’re dead.” the demon raised his right hand, and a ball of green fire appeared in it.
“kill them! kill them all!” evan screamed, clutching his stomach in pain.
“protect them!” sivir shouted, lifting her boomerang.
that was when they heard a griffin’s loud cry. the purple creature dived fast like lightning, leaving afterimages behind it.
“what?!” the demon’s expression changed drastically. he started to raise his head.
yet it was too late.
a pair of sharp claws pierced his chest and carried him up into the sky. an instant later, he was torn in half. blood and ghost flames were spilled everywhere.
“no, you’re dead.” mag covered amy’s eyes.
