Chapter 24 - Impenetrable vow

Abaddon looked at Damien like he could not believe that the weak demon who was nothing in front of him was daring to say such bold words in front of him, he glared at him heavily and then said in a haughty voice, " Who do you think you are? You are actually trying to order the young master of the Bell family, you weak and puny de——"

But before he could finish speaking, Damien raised a brow and said, " But you were defeated by this weak and puny demon, what are you if you were defeated by this weak demon? A baby demon? No, I guess even a baby demon would not be defeated like you were."

" That was because you used an underhanded move——"

" Now you are just trying to make excuses," Damien once again interrupted Abaddon causing the latter's face to turn red in anger. " I defeated you fair and square even the teacher accepted it, why is it that you cannot accept it? I did not think that the great heir of the Bell family would be like this." He was not the strongest fighter but he was not the dimmest bulb among the demons who were only brawns and no brains when it came to young demons like Abaddon.

When Damien said those words, his voice was not light at all. His voice attracted the attention of the other demons who looked at Abaddon whose face turned red with shame this time before he snatched the money that Damien was holding in his hands and then turned to look at a demon who was weaker than him and then called him close, " Hey you, come here and bring something decent to eat for him." He pointed to Damien who was standing in front of him. " Make sure that you chose something nice, or else I am going to knock the stuffing out of your head, got it?"

The demon looked on the weaker side, he immediately nodded his head and then rushed to bring the meal that Abaddon asked him to bring, when Abaddon saw that Damien was looking at him, he raised a brow and said, " You only said that you need me to bring you a meal, you did not mention that I have to go and bring you the meal, so don't look at me like that."

Damien realised that this demon was rather sly when it came to his own comforts, he looked at the arrogance of the demon and sighed before he turned to look at where the teachers were, there was nothing he could do now that the demon upon whom Abaddon pushed the responsibility of bringing him a snack was gone.

" Why don't we make another bet?" Abaddon asked from beside, the last time he was defeated by this weak demon and he became a joke in front of the others, if he was to leave this matter alone then he was sure that he was going to become a joke between the noble demons which was why he could not leave this demon alone. " If you win this bet then I will protect you in this academy and out of it like a bodyguard. I am very strong, if you have me by your side then you don't have to worry about anything else."

" You are already my servant, aren't you?" Damien said while the teachers were speaking with each other.

" That does not count, we did not make a verbal bet but this time we will make an impenetrable vow, whoever wins this bet will have to become the servant of the winner without any excuse. Think about it, if you refuse then we will simply forget about the bet that we made earlier and you will have to agree that you won with sheer luck and dirty play."

Damien looked at the demon who was simply playing rogue and wanted to speak when he suddenly saw Lynch sit up straight on his shoulder as he surveyed the surroundings and then said in a slightly excited voice, " Treasure found, please accept and follow the instructions given by your treasure hunter!"

Almost immediately Damien's eyes turned wide as an excited glint flashed in his eyes, there was a treasure just a few steps away from him. If he was to find this treasure that belonged to the demon lord then he will surely win this hunt, wouldn't he? Maybe he will find some really wonderful weapon. One that will make all demons bow down to him?

As soon as this thought came to his head, he turned to look at Abaddon with a proud look on his face and said, " Challenge accepted, if I hunt more and rare beasts than you, then you will be my servant, and this time you will not be able to go back, got it ?"

Abaddon was slightly surprised by Damien's confidence but then he thought that the weak demon must have inflated his head because of the victory last time and then snickered in his head as he bit his thumb and drew a seal in the palm of his hand before saying, " Of course, that is if you win."

He stretched out his hand for Damien to take, Damien took his hand and almost immediately he felt a warm current flow through his body as a red glow shone around their joined hands and then he saw a small bracelet-like figure appearing around his wrist as well as Abaddon.

" Now we are bounded in an impenetrable vow, if you lose then you will not be able to go back!" He told Damien with a slight smirk on his lips, he did not tell Damien but he was a skilled hunter who has killed an A-grade beast without even sweating a little bit, he was definitely going to win this bet and then he will avenge himself for all the humiliation he has suffered.

" Young master Bell, I have brought the snacks," the demon who was responsible for buying the snacks returned with a pack of what looked like chips.

" Hand it to him," Abaddon who was in a good mood because of the bet told the demon and then turned to leave.
