Chapter 5

The reason Isabella didn’t immediately agree was because there were things she still didn’t understand.

“What are you going to do after I take him out? You said he killed demons whenever he saw one. Isn’t it better to lock him up for the sake of the species?”

“That’s why I need him. His overwhelming magic is enough to step on all the clumsy things.”

The demon smiled fishily and pretended to scratch her neck with her finger. Then she whispered softly in Isabella’s ear.

“It’s an essential virtue for the next demon king.”

“You must be confident that he will submit once I take him out.”

“I don’t have to touch him.”

“…….”

“Because that’s a demon’s instinct. No matter how crazy you are, there is no exception.”

Demons had three desires. The desire to destroy the pure, the desire to possess the coveted, and the desire to destroy the strong.

A demon is a creature that moves completely according to its desires, and once it becomes a demon, it will not be able to avoid its instincts.

The seat of the Demon King is a position where only the strongest can climb. If it is with his powers, it would be reasonable to trample on the other demos and reign as the Demon King.

“All right, I’ll get him out of there, Kayden Blake.”

Isabella, who exhaled a light breath, replied determinedly. Her eyes did not shake an inch.

“I have a condition instead.”

“Tell me.”

“I’ll take him out and borrow him for a while. I think he’ll be very useful for my plan.”

She meant that she would use him sparingly as she made him a demon. The demon, who smirked at her ferocious attitude, nodded gladly.

“Yeah. We’ll need time to fulfill the contract anyway. It’s a problem if it gets too long though, so solve it within a year.”

“Okay, I’ll keep the deadline.”

Unleash his leash before a year has passed. It wasn’t a difficult job. Her revenge will begin immediately.

“Okay, then I’ll give you one last present before we sign the contract.”

The demon flicked her finger again. Then a red light came out of Isabella’s finger.

After the light faded, she saw a ring with red ore.

“This is…”

“If the mad dog growls, it’ll be a rope for you.”

“This ring?”

At first glance, it was a ring with no special characteristics. The demon sighed deeply as she fiddled with the ring on her right index finger and looked suspicious.

“Even if it doesn’t look good, it’s a mana stone ring. If you don’t believe it, I’ll take it back.”

“No, I’ll use it well. Thank you.”

“Don’t die, because it will bother me.”

The demon grinned as she stroked Isabella’s head.

Once again, a red magic circle was drawn under Isabella’s feet.

A faint light followed an unfamiliar trajectory, and soon a huge amount of light began to shoot out.

“Well, let’s get started.”

She was dizzy as she heard a low voice and felt magic flow within her.

‘What’s going to happen now?’

Before she even thought about complicated things, she lost consciousness.

The cold wind blew through her hair. The full moon hung dimly in the dark.

When she woke up, Isabella was on the rooftop, the top floor of the tower.

This place, facing the sky, was the closest place to the moon on a day when the full moon rises like today.

“Is it here?”

She was convinced that she had come to the right place. Because the black shadow reflected on the full moon was staring at this side.

“Kayden Blake.”

Isabella recited his name without realizing it. The man in the dark walked slowly as if to respond to her call.

“…right, good boy.”

Isabella whispered softly to the fierce beast.

“Come on.”

Words such as unknown spells lingered in her mouth.

What am I doing? As I called him, I felt indescribably strange.

With each step closer, his silhouette became clearer. It was not long before the man’s face came to light.

He had dark hair like the night sky. Cold white skin and drowsy eyes like he’s drunk on something. His blood-red lips were strangely erotic.

A sharp nose, a delicate but clear jawline. He was like an exquisite sculpture.

Indeed, he had a breathtakingly delicate face. The figure of the man walking slowly towards her got closer.

As their distance narrowed, her heart beat faster and faster.

Is she possessed by the demon? He was an incredibly beautiful creature. As the man approached as close as to her nose, he became delirious.

“Seeing that you came alive, you are not a human.”

The man tilted his head and spoke softly. She was astonished by his slightly exposed neckline, so she hurriedly raised her eyes.

As soon as their eyes met, his eyes lit up, as if murder sprang from his eyes.

“Do you want me to tear you apart?”

She could feel the texture of a cool blade with his eerie voice. Isabella’s neck, which was against a blue blade, shone white like snow in the moonlight.

The man glared at her with cold eyes.

Kayden Blake. He was the crazy dog.
