Worldly Overlord

Chapter 5 - A Deal With The Devil



A month had passed since that incident, but to Devon, it felt like a year. The voice in his head kept talking to him, and each time that happened he felt pain.

The voice kept repeating the same thing

\'Give me more and for a month Devon felt torture. After a month of experiencing that kind of pain, he had gotten a little used to it.

Devon had a good sense of smell, he smelled something odd around the area where he was, with great difficulty he went over there to check what it was.

An old man was on the ground, the man was bleeding all over his body. Seeing a dead body was not new to Devon. As if, he was compelled he walked over to the man then placed his right hand on the man\'s chest, he could feel the man\'s heartbeat.

He closed his eyes, enjoying the feeling he was receiving from the old man.

"Uhm yummy, that delicious"

Devon opened his eyes, freaked out, and quickly removed his hand from the body, but then he realized the body was gone.

"Who is there? Old man, I know you\'re alive, so don\'t play this kind of prank with me"

"Hehehehe dumbass."

Devon\'s eyes widened. Why was a voice suddenly echoing within his head? He looked left and right, but there was no one around him.

"Hehehehe this is fun."

Devon began to wonder if he had gone insane. After a whole month of torture.

"Okay, Okay, Who are you, and what do you want from me?"

"Do you want to make a deal with the devil?"

"No"

"Wait what? Don\'t you want to get revenge for what your dad did to your mom"

Devon tightened his fist, he knew this was a bad thing to do but what other choice did he have he couldn\'t absorb Celestial energy, so how could he have his revenge.

"Yes, what do you want in return?"

From a young age, he was taught that there was no free lunch. Clifford always told him when someone offers you something, you have to reject it because you might have to pay double of what the person gave you.

"Hehehehe smart fellow, it is a win-win situation, I offer you power in exchange you do my bidding."

"That all?"

"Yeah, you might want to be unconscious because this might hurt a little, a bit."

Devon\'s vision was starting to fade. The pain he was feeling was unbearable that he was unable to maintain consciousness.

========================

Back on earth, The Investigation of Luna Reid was still going, families and organizations had tried their best, but they couldn\'t find out what happened. The Reid house was that good at keeping information.

Chaos City, the safest place in the mortal world, the most beautiful and the most expensive. As one average house in chaos city could buy a small organization. People who lived in chaos city were the best of the best. Chaos City was also known as the home of the world government.

In an underground bunker, a man was having a conversation with a woman. She seemed to be in her late 30s, but she was damn hot. It seemed like the man was giving her a report about something, but each time the man spoke she tightened her fist, it was very obvious that she was angry.

"Don\'t allow this to get to the president, you know what he\'s capable of doing."

"Yes, ma."

"You may leave."

Waiting for the man to leave, the woman looked at her right corner and frowned. She waved her hand and a shockwave blasted through the wall.

A white-haired lady appeared in the room.

"You\'ve not changed at all after so many years, Vivian. Aren\'t you tired of working for that man, you know he won\'t ever look at you with affection after what happened."

"Kid stop acting as if you know me, if not for your father you would have been dead by now."

"That the favorite part about being daddy\'s favorite, people like you will never understand it."

Vivian got up from her seat, stretched her hand out and a sword flew straight to her hand not waiting for a single moment, she attacked. However, It was like the white-haired woman had predicted it as she flew back.

"That not how to treat your niece, but I must say you\'re getting...."

"Puff" the white-haired woman vomited blood from her mouth before she could finish her word.

"Elyse, even your father dare not underestimate me in a battle. Tell Clifford, once that person finds out what really happened to Luna, he\'s dead meat."

Vivian waved her hand, sending Elyse to wherever she came from.

Reid mansion...

"Hahahaha that little girl is still angry at me, I guess I deserve it. What do you think about her, Elyse?"

"She\'s a mean bitch"

Clifford\'s face became serious, he grabbed Elyse by the neck and lifted her, strangling her in the process.

"You\'re too weak, if you don\'t grow strong quickly I\'m going to kill you with my hand just like I killed your mother."

=======================

Slowly, Devon\'s eyelids were opening, and his vision was becoming clearer. His body felt very weak, he got up from the ground and checked all his body if he had been injured anywhere. He touched his head, making sure he was alright.

" Mr Devil Voice what did you do to me?"

"Mr Devil Voice, are you there?"

Devon was starting to panic when he got no reply.

"I\'m arranging some task for you to complete, I used the last bit of energy to form a connection, so I\'m exhausted complete the task fast boy I\'ll be waiting."

"Mr. Devil Voice, where are you going to?"

Task: Ensure Mae doesn\'t get raped and join her alliance without making think you have an ulterior motive.

Devon could not hold his laughter, when he made a deal with the devil he was expecting something dangerous.. Did he make a deal with the devil or an angel.
