Chereads / The return of the demon lord / Chapter 6 - The Agreement

Chapter 6 - The Agreement

Hans thought that the mysterious voice is just an evil spirit that wants to take over his mind. But it turned out to be the former ruler of the forest of darkness.

The reputation of demon lord marlic is quite astonishing, for he intended to align the lower class creatures with those superior to them like ogres. but all demon lord marlic's dreams vanished when the twelve kingdoms sent a very powerful hero to put an end to his dark plot.

This hero was sent by the twelve kingdoms to thwart the evil plot of demon lord marlic, But along with the defeat of demon lord marlic, they also lost their connection with this hero.

As the twelve kingdoms celebrated their victory, chaos gradually enveloped the lands in the forest of darkness that soon led to disintegration of the monster tribes.

And since then ogres have ruled the entire forest of darkness. one of these lands is the central part of the forest. where the creatures dwell, who continue to follow the rules left by the former leader demon lord marlic.

Unbeknownst to hans, the goblins are the remaining most loyal disciples of demon lord marlic.If they could only see the spirit of their leader they would surely bow to the spirit that hans was talking to. But only hans could see and talk to him.

So hans carefully considered his decision, he should not rush, although demon marlic stated his purpose it was not a reason for him to trust it. But hans has to decide to save his new friends from the impending disaster that is coming upon them.

" I will accept your offer but on one condition ". Said hans

Hans carefully considered whether he would accept the offer or not. But he had to decide as soon as possible so that they would not be preceded by the impending disaster. so he laid out a condition.

"All right, just tell me the conditions and I promise I'll fulfill that hans" Demon lord marlic replied

"Ok, I only have one condition with you, and that is don't try to merge with my body again" Hans replied anxiously.

"Okay, you can hope I never do that again "replied demon lord marlic

"But when you are in danger I can't promise that I will fulfill your condition hans, because when you die I will also disappear forever so I have to break the condition, I hope you understand hans " demon lord marlic added seriously.

Hans didn't expect this man to worry about him so he could hardly believe what he heard from the man he thought was an evil spirit. Hans thinks it's okay for him to accept its offer to him, he also sees its sincerity in his word.So hans accepted demon lord marlic's offer.

While the two were talking, the goblins immediately noticed Hans' strange behavior as if he was talking to someone they couldn't see. So the shaman approached hans.

"Mister, is there a problem ?.. " the shaman asked

"Nothing, I was just in deep thought nothing to worry my friend" replied hans.

And since there was no problem, the shaman went to the wounded people of the village. But as he walked away from hans he felt a familiar presence within hans.

"This presence ..." the shaman replied to himself.

Ever since the shaman's childhood he could not forget this familiar presence that rescued them when they were attacked by demon beasts. And he was surprised when he felt the presence again and he almost burst into tears as he again remembered their former ruler in the person of hans.

Due to demon lord marlic's refusal to give up on hans to accept his offer, it resulted in a reconciliation between the former rivals. Hans and demon lord marlic closed their agreement on the basis of trust.

Meanwhile, in a castle on the swamps of the forest of darkness. A young chieftain can't believe someone can beat the demon beast that easily. He is one of the superior races and he belongs to the race of lizardmen.

Lizardmen are one of those who have successfully elevated their kind in the hierarchy of tribes of monsters in the forest of darkness. Lizardmen also protect the vulnerable creatures that inhabit their constituents. They were also the first creatures to rise with the help of demon lord marlic

When the chieftain sensed the presence of the demo beast roaming within their territory, he gave orders to his warriors to head to the village of goblins and warn them.

But they were delayed because as they were on their way to the village of goblins, they saw wounded rabbitmen and creatures that had been severely damaged by the demon beast's attack.

But after they had given them relief, the lizardmen general left the rest of his soldier to guard them against any imminent danger.

And the army went to give support to the goblins being attacked by the demon beast. But even before they arrived they saw smoke in the village indicating that it was currently being attacked by the demon beast.

Because of this the army of lizardmen hurried to reach the village immediately. And as they approached the village they saw a man approaching the village guided by birds.

And after that, they witnessed a very extraordinary event that in their entire lives as warriors they had only just seen.

The chieftain immediately received the news of what his soldiers had witnessed. And he did not believe this news.

"I'm not content with just the news, I need to see and talk to the person responsible for this matter." Said the chieftain to himself.

"Guards, tell my generals we're going to the place of the goblins " shouted the chieftain to the guards.

And the shouts of the generals prevailed in the swamp castle after the chieftain's order.

"PREPARE THE TROOPS!!!!!"
