Chereads / APOCALYPSE: SYSTEM OF GREED / Chapter 11 - My first demon sum

Chapter 11 - My first demon sum

he looks at the place where she had attacked.

A huge hole of nothingness and only darkness.

gulp.

Huhhh!

The demon girl sighs as she looks at me.

"SERAPHINE DARKTHRONE "greets the master.

She bows down as she shows respect to me.

Although I couldn't see her face when she was bowing down to me I could definitely feel that she didn't want to be under me.

seraphine darkthorn?

(Have I heard that name before?)

[I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ACTUALLY GOT A DEMON AS YOUR FIRST SUMMON]

[I CAN EVEN FEEL THE POWER EMANATING FROM HER SHE IS DEFINITELY A NOVELTY]

(That is not something to boast about you idiot)

Hoi can't you tell her to behave well instead of attacking me? You are a higher rank than her .he whispered slowly.

[SORRY BUT I CAN'T FORCE HER TO SUBMIT TO YOU.I DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF ATHURITY AFTER TURNING INTO A MORTAL AGAIN]

[ONLY THE HIGHEST RANK GODS ARE ALLOWED TO DO THAT]

Zeran didn't say anything to it as he cleared his throat.

Ughm

Seraphine darkthorn .my name is zeran you can call me wherever you want but I want you to know you are my first summon.

Okay zeran.

(Okay now why did she immediately let go of the honorifics)

(Well who even cares it's not like I have ego that can be hurted)

(Well now what do I do?)

Umm seraphine I want to ask you something.

Yes.she said emotionlessly.

What do summons usually do?.

She stared at me with her eyes halfway closed.

She seemed like she wanted to punch me in the face for asking Such a dumb question.

Although she was acting that way she still answered my question.

Summons usually are summoned to help the summoner in any way they can.

it depends on the summons on what type of help they can do to the summoner .

I am a battle type summons so I usually do things like killing or protecting.

(Well seeing her speed and power I had already guessed she was a fighting type)

(Not to mention the armour )

[YOU SHOULD PROBABLY CHECK HER STATS]

[YOU ARE HER SUMMONER SO YOU HAVE THE ATHURITY TO CHECK HER STATS.]

and how do I do it?

[JUST THINK OF STATUS WHEN LOOKING AT HER]

(status)

a blue holographic screen came Infront of me.

[STATUS ]

[SERAPHINE DARKTHRONE

STAGE:2ND STAGE

HP:10,000/10,000]

[STATS

STRENGTH:1000

SPEED:1000

STAMINA:1000

DEFENCE:1000

MANA:1000]

zeran looked at her with a shocked look.

(What the actual hell are those stats!?)

(If she had hit me once with full strength I would have died on the spot)

(Is it cause she is a demon that she has such stats or is it that I am too weak?)

Wait wait wait.

Hoi Devil didn't you say that if the summon is more powerful than the summoner they can defy my orders and even kill me?

Why is she still answering my questions and showing me respect?he said with paranoia creeping in his mind.

[WELL NORMALLY ANY DEMON WOULD HAVE IMMEDIATELY KILLED YOU OR WOULD HUNT YOU DOWN]

[BUT JUST BECAUSE THEY CAN KILL YOU DOESN'T MEAN THEY WILL KILL YOU]

huh what do you mean?

[LOTS OF DEMONS DON'T ACTUALLY KILL HUMANS BUT INSTEAD OF KILLING THEM FOR NO REASON THEY USE YOU TO BENEFIT THEM]

[IF YOU PROVE TO BE STRONG AND USEFUL TO THEY THEY WOULD ACTUALLY PAY ATTENTION TO YOU]

[THE FIRST ATTACK SHE GAVE YOU WAS A TEST TO SEE IF YOU ARE REALLY ARE WORTHY?]

[BUT JUST BECAUSE THEY USE YOU DOESN'T MEAN YOU HAVE NO FREE WILL YOU MAY EVEN BE GIVEN THE LIFE OF LUXURY IF YOU PROVE YOUR WORTHYNESS TO THE DEMONS]

[IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THEN THE MOST EASIEST WAY TO EXPLAIN IS THAT THEY THINK OF YOU AS ANIMALS]

[YOU CAN BE A DOG ,CAT OR CHICKEN TO THEM]

[IF YOU PROVIDE LOYALTY THAN YOU CAN BE CONSIDERED A DOG.SOME ONE WHO COULD BE TRUSTED AND FAUGHT ALONG]

[IF YOU PROVIDE AMUSEMENT THAN YOU CAN BE CONSIDERED CAT.SOME ONE WHO THEY WILL LAUGH AT OR LAUGH TOGETHER ]

[IF YOU DO NOT PROVIDE ANYTHING THEY WANT THAN YOU ARE A CHICKEN.LOCKED UP IN A CAGE EVERY DAY FEEDED THE WORST PROCESED FOOD AND WAITING FOR ONE DAY TO BE EATEN BY THEM OR OTHER DEMONS]

While zeran was hearing all of this with interest seraphine was looking at the clock on the golden barrier

[0:20]

[0:19]

[0:18]

So what you are telling me is that demons treat humans the way we treat animals?

[YES]

well now that I think about it demons aren't really that bad of a species.

[PFFT ARE YOU REALLY TELLING ME THAT WHILE BEING A HUMAN?]

What why is there something wrong with humans?

[WELL SHORT FORM ANSWER]

[HUMANS ARE ONE OF THE WORST SPECIES THERE HAS EVER BEEN IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE]

huh why?

[WELL I WOULDN'T BLAME YOU FOR NOT KNOWING IT BECAUSE ALL OF THE SPECIES THINK THEY ARE THE GOOD ONES AND OTHERS ARE BAD]

[BUT THAT IS A TOPIC I WOULD TELL YOU LATER BECAUSE WE ARE GETTING OUT OF TRACK]

[FIRST YOU SHOULD TRY GO GAIN HER TRUST OR MAKE HER LOYAL TO YOU]

[SHE MAY HAVE OTHER REASONS FOR NOT KILLING YOU AS WELL]

zeran understood that he had to gain her trust in him before he becomes friendly with her.

[0:1]

[DING THE BARRIER HAS BEEN REMOVED]

The golden barrier didn't stay for much as it started to disappear from the top to bottom in a few second.

As the barriers disappeared a whole new place was introduced to us all .

The sky above Suoel City in South Korea was a clear, serene blue, a stark contrast to the chaos unfolding below. Just an hour after the apocalypse began, the city was already a nightmare. Streets that once bustled with life were eerily empty of people, replaced by the relentless movement of zombies. Buildings stood as silent witnesses to the catastrophe, their windows shattered, and doors ajar. Abandoned cars, many still with engines running, blocked the roads, adding to the sense of sudden abandonment. The blue sky seemed almost mocking in its tranquility, indifferent to the horror and destruction that had taken over seoul City.

(This place seems completely different from the one I used see in TV 's or YouTube)

This whole place is full of destruction and chaos.

(Well after all the whole place is struck with the apocalypse)

[DING ALL OF THE HUMANS ARE BEING TRANSPORTED BACK TO THE PLANET EARTH]

Huh this fast? It's only been about 1 hour and they are already sending the humans back.

[WELL I SHOULD MENTION THIS BUT 2 MINUTES HERE IS THE SAME AS 1 DAY IN THAT PLACE]

he became a little pissed off as a nerve came in his head.

So you didn't even tell me important information like that.

He calmed himself down as he tried to think with clear mind.

So what you are telling me that they have been gone for about 1 whole month while I have been staying here for an hour.

[YES]

what have they even been doing there?

While zeran was conversing with the devil.

Seraphine was looking at him with bored face.

(When is this guy gonna stop talking)

(Should I just kill him?)

Humm

Her attention immediately got changed as she looked above the sky.

Small light particles that were visible by eyes were dropping on earth.

Her eyes immediately widened in suprise.

She slowly turned her head towards zeran with shock in her face.

Hoi zeran can I want to ask you something?

zeran got caught off gaurd when she suddenly asked him a question .

(A question? Well I should probably say yes and let her ask me a question since I have to build trust in us)

Yha sure why not.

Tell me how much time has passed after the start of the apocalypse?

About 1 hour why?

No how much time have you experienced? After the apocalypse.

(Why is she being weird all of a sudden)

As I told you it's been about 1 hour and I have been fighting for that much time till now.

She looks at zeran's eyes with her eyes wide open.

Did you not get teleported to the tutorial tower?

Huh what is that?I was genuinely confused on what a tutorial tower is.

(Judging by the name alone it seems like a tower where you gain experience or something but I don't really know about it)

Huh? He is not lying!

Than how did you gain a summon ticket if you never gained it from the tutorial tower?

Why is she being so weird?

(Well i guess she doesn't know about the boxes I gained)

(Speaking of which I think I saw a special gift box that I haven't opened)

SPEAK TO ME!!

ohh oh sorry I suddenly started to think of something else.

I had gotten the summon ticket from ticket draws.

I used 10 tickets and luckily gained the summon card out of them.

She looked at me with even more shocked face.

And how did you gain those tickets?

From a gift box!

I immediately replied with confidence.

No way.she whispered.

Don't tell me.

DID YOU KILL A BOSS!

ugh

Can you not shout it hurts my ear okay.

HOW!!

HOW DID YOU KILL A BOSS IF THE APOCALYPSE ONLY STARTED 1 HOUR AGO!!

are you lying!

She said as she started to unsethe her sword.

If you don't tell me the truth I will kill you.

She threatened with her eyes glowing with killing intent.
