Chapter 161: Obitos’ Arrival
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Sleeper Besta finally emerged from the ring of clouds. His lower body was an octopus and his upper body was a human.
Very unfortunately, Chen Zhao knew this octopus monster.
Of course, they had merely encountered each other once before and were not friends.
With his tentacles, Besta supported himself above the Gate of Hell. Two of his tentacles were crossed before his chest just like two hands as he looked at everyone from above.
Winry was kneeling on the ground, looking as humble as a servant.
“The great Sleeper Besta, your dedicated servant, Winry Gargamel, is ready to serve you.”
“The human world… I’m actually really in the human world…”
“Hello, octopus monster, we meet again,” Chen Zhao greeted.
Besta lowered his head and carefully inspected Chen Zhao.
To be honest, it was very difficult for a demon to recognize a human’s face, just like how humans could not distinguish between the faces of the same kind of animal. The same thing happened to Besta.
However, based on just smell, he indeed found Chen Zhao rather familiar.
Winry’s face was filled with doubt. Why would this Asian know Besta?
Was it not the first time that Sleeper Besta was summoned from Hell?
Suddenly, Besta recalled who the person before him was.
“Human, it’s you! How dare you appear in front of me again! You caused a huge loss to me… I’m going to kill you!”
“Shit! I knew I would still have to fight,” Chen Zhao cursed.
Besta was not an inferior demon. Bloody Hunter was certainly no match for him.
Even if Chen Zhao were to release his entire demon army, he would suffer a heavy loss.
Besta was clearly a subordinate demon, although Chen Zhao had no idea who his king was.
Chen Zhao twitched his lips and very unwillingly took out a demonic ritual implement.
This time, a cloud of white gas was released from the ritual implement, and the amount of gas was far more than when Chen Zhao had summoned Bloody Hunter.
The white gas enveloped the region around him and formed a cloud of fog.
In the fog, a figure seemed to be floating slowly.
Suddenly, a face appeared from the fog. “Living Lord, did you summon me here?”
“Jessica, can you defeat this octopus monster?”
The face disappeared. In the next instant, it appeared again before the octopus and started to float around it.
“Subordinate Aker Besta, do you know who I am?”
Besta stared suspiciously at the vague face in the fog. Suddenly, his expression changed and he screamed in horror, “Jessica? You’re Lord Jessica?”
Ah!
Jessica released a sharp howl.
Chen Zhao, Winry, and Bloody Hunter all covered their ears in pain.
Directly before the attack, Besta’s entire body started spurting blood, as if his whole body had been cut by a knife.
“You know who I am, and yet you dare to face me with such an attitude?”
The fog around them began to converge. Gradually, Jessica’s body formed.
Winry’s hair stood up in fear. She did not know who Jessica was, but it was evident that Besta was extremely scared of her.
But, isn’t Besta the King of Sleep?
Shouldn’t he be one of the strongest in Hell?
Why… does he look so weak and petty?
Is this ordinary-looking woman also a demon king? One who’s even more powerful than Besta?
Gravely injured by Jessica’s scream, Besta attempted to flee into the Gate of Hell.
“Why leave when you’re already here?”
Jessica shook her body and countless clones of herself appeared, charging into the Gate of Hell one after another.
In the depths of the pit, screams could be constantly heard.
Winry could feel her limbs turn cold. Coming from the pit were not just Jessica’s sharp screams, but also Besta’s screams of horror.
Jessica’s real body bowed at Chen Zhao. “Living Lord, since I’m in the human world, I need to complete the task given by Lord Beelzebub.”
“Yup.” Chen Zhao had not summoned Jessica until just now precisely because he did not really want to accept Obitos.
Obitos was truly big trouble. However, since Jessica was already here, Chen Zhao had no choice but to accept the task of taking care of Obitos.
Jessica took out a soul-filled bottle and threw it into the Gate of Hell as she chanted an obscure incantation.
As she called, something seemed to be coming out from the deep pit.
Finally, a fire pillar erupted from the pit and reached the sky, forming a cluster of red, fiery clouds.
It looked exactly like when Besta had been summoned earlier, except for the color of the clouds.
Suddenly, an enormous monster many times larger than Besta charged out from the burning clouds. It was Obitos, and in his mouth was none other than Besta.
The poor Besta was already half-killed by Jessica immediately after he came to the human world. Then, an even fiercer monster appeared and took him as food.
Obitos’ gigantic body landed on the ground. Winry was already shocked out of her wits.
Fire dragon! The legendary fire dragon!
Obitos’ near-perfect body, powerful wings, and surging fire elements all indicated his identity.
He was a fire king from Hell!
Obitos lowered his head and looked at Winry. Then, he opened his mouth and devoured her too.
However, before he could swallow Winry, he spit her out.
“What a terrible taste.”
“Living Lord, please complete the contract with Lord Obitos,” Jessica said.
“What do I do?”
“Nothing. Let me help you.” Jessica approached Chen Zhao and made a cut on his palm, after which she lifted his hand up. “Lord Obitos, please lower your head.”
Obitos looked at Chen Zhao and then put his head low.
Jessica held Chen Zhao’s hand and placed it on Obitos’ forehead.
A complicated magic marking appeared on Obitos’ forehead as his body shrunk in size.
Very soon, he became a giant lizard, one with wings and dark red skin.
Looking at Obitos, Chen Zhao was somewhat disappointed.
In the end, he still could not complete his dream of becoming a dragon knight…
Anyhow, this world could certainly not tolerate a real terrifying fire dragon.
“Living Lord, is there anything else I can do for you?”
“Bring her with you.” Chen Zhao pointed at Winry.
At the moment, Winry was lying on the ground with one last breath. Being bitten by a fire dragon was surely nothing comfortable.
Both her body and soul had been burnt by Obitos’ scorching flames. She had basically lost all abilities to fight.
Of course, even if she could still fight, there was no way she was going to defeat Jessica.
After all, Jessica was not a mere inferior demon. She was a superior demon, a truly superior Banshee.
