Chapter 167: The Devil's Visit (Part II)
"Seventy-two demons ......!" Princess Mana was shocked to hear Marcias's self-introduction, and with her status as a princess of a country, she had obviously heard some rumors.
However, it was just a legend-like story, more ethereal than the dragons, and the narratives about demons were all translated from ancient books, and no one knew whether they were true or not.
"Rank thirty-two, Marcosias......" Liu Zhe muttered, silently remembering the name in his mind, and then said, "What are you looking for me? Did you specially follow me into the ruins?" After finishing speaking, Liu Zhe immediately shook his head, if the other party really has something to find him, there is no need to make it so complicated at all, there should be more opportunities when he is in Flame Light City, why bother to follow himself into the ruins?
Sure enough, the vague figure and Marcosias shook their heads and denied, "No, no, no, you're mistaken, in fact, my original goal was not you, but to find Jimonri, another of my kindred, so I entered the ruins, but in the middle of the way, I found that you had the breath of Asmodeus in your body, so I changed my goal now." "Asmode...... You know him!" Lyucheol stared at Marcosias in surprise.
Hearing this, Marcosias said angrily: "Little guy, do you have a problem with your head, we are seventy-two of the same race, and we have been with each other for thousands of years, how can we not know each other?" Hearing this, Liu Zhe and the three of them were shocked again, although they knew that the life of the demon was almost infinite, but they really heard that the other party had lived for a thousand years, they couldn't help but be shocked.
In the face of the surprise of Liu Zhe and the others, Marcosias turned a blind eye, opened the skylight and said brightly: "I won't talk to you about this, I'll go straight to the point, since you have the breath of Asmodeus, you must have met him, you tell me where the other person is, and what is his current situation?" Hearing Marcosias' natural tone, Liu Zhe immediately stopped, and then looked at him with a vigilant gaze, and said, "I don't seem to have promised to tell you about Asmodeus, right?" Tsk, it's my rudeness, there is indeed no lunch for nothing in the world, I have been trapped by people for too long, this has forgotten the principle of equivalent exchange that we value the most, human little guy, you say, what are you going to exchange with Asmodeus's intelligence for me?" "......" Hearing what Marcosias said, Princess Mana's face froze, and then she suddenly remembered that in the records of the ancient books, although the demons are the embodiment of evil, they are also the race that keeps their promises. Once promised, they will never go back on what they promised, and they never take it by force, advocating equivalent exchange.
In a sense, the demons don't seem to be the big bad guys, at least as far as Princess Manna seems to be at the moment, there are more villains in this world than their evil villains, of course, Princess Manna knows only fragments, and she can even say that she doesn't know anything about the seventy-two demons.
Without waiting for Ryuzhe to respond, Marcosias said in distress again, "Hmm...... But in my current state, I can't seem to give you anything. Hearing this, Liu Zhe said, "You may have misunderstood what I meant, so I will tell you directly, I am not prepared to exchange Asmodeus's information for any benefit to you. "Ahh Isn't it for the sake of taking advantage of oneself?
"......" was speechless, and Marcosias was very puzzled by Liu Zhe's actions, and after being silent for a long time, he finally had to spit out such a sentence: "Why?" Yes, why! Telling himself the information about Asmodeus is not harmful to him, no, on the contrary, it can be said that it is very good for him! The big cake sent to the door for nothing, he actually doesn't want it?
Hearing Marcosias's question, Liu Zhe said without thinking: "Although it is an exchange, but I did receive a lot of help from Asmodeus, and I don't know the relationship between you and Asmodeus, if you are his mortal enemy, wouldn't it be ungrateful for me to leak his information?"
「...... Haha-ha!" Hearing Liuzhe's answer, Marcosias suddenly laughed out loud after a long silence, and said at the same time: "Are you worried about that Asmodeus guy? Yes! Yes! You human being is so interesting, no wonder Asmodeus is so proud that guy would trade with you, you know, that guy has a very withdrawn personality, and he usually doesn't trade with people casually, and among our kind, that woman is definitely in the top five in terms of difficulty in getting along with her, and everyone is afraid that she will die of fear. "Ahh
Woman?Did Asmodeus turn out to be a woman!?
Liu Zhe was really frightened, and his cognition of Asmodeus was destroyed in an instant, when he heard Asmode's low voice, he subconsciously regarded the other party as a man, coupled with the terrifying aura of oppression on his body, Liu Zhe never thought that the other party would be a woman!
Besides, would any woman call herself this king?
But now that I think about it, the black shadow I saw at the beginning was not Asmodeus's real body, except for words, actions and voices, Liu Zhe really had no other evidence to prove that Asmodeus was a man.
"Oh, little one, look at your face, you don't seem to know that Asmodeus is a woman?" Marciath looked at Ryuzhe with interest.
Liu Zhe smiled bitterly, "I really don't know. "It seems that she deliberately didn't tell you...... Tsk, that's not good, what if she comes to me to settle accounts for this matter?" Marcosias's tone suddenly became tense, and then he said, "Hey boy, if you meet Asmodeus in the future, you must not reveal her identity, and even if you do, you must never tell her that I told you about it!" Liu Zhe replied casually, he didn't think too much about it, after all, he wanted to see Asmodeus again, and the probability seemed to be very low.
Hearing Liu Zhe nod in agreement, Marcosias breathed a sigh of relief, and said at the same time: "That's it, I didn't say what I said, since you kid has this kind of mind, then you don't have to tell me about Asmodeus, after all, I have no way to prove my relationship with Asmodeus, more precisely, I really don't have any friendship with women, anyway, just wait a little longer, it's not a big deal, and there is a little black man who can let me pass the time." "......" The black shadow's face froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, thinking that he was a big man and was called a little black by the other party, especially in front of outsiders, which made him very embarrassed.
Hearing this, Liu Zhe nodded, he still had no intention of telling Asmodeus about it at this time, after all, he was not naïve enough to easily believe Marcosias just by saying a word.
Liu Zhe was naturally aware of his suspicions, but he didn't care too much, instead said, "By the way, little one, you seem to be looking for a way to get out of here, anyway, it's all along the way, you can come with me, after all, it would be too much for you to let such an interesting human die here." Hearing this, Liu Zhe was surprised: "Do you know the way to get out of here?" Not only Liu Zhe, but even the black shadow showed a surprised expression, before this he had also asked Marcosias if there was a way to leave here, but he kept silent about it, and only said that he wanted to keep up with Liu Zhe, which made the black shadow feel very unbalanced, he had been with him for a few years, was he not better than this newly-arrived black-haired youth?
Ignoring the imbalance in the dark shadow's heart, Marcosias's tone was very proud at this time, and he straightened his chest and said, "Of course!
