The Demon General Is A Man

The Road to Monster Island

CHAPTER 17: THE JOURNEY TO MONSTER ISLAND

" I'm sorry, Princess Thia. It has made you worry " Morgan said in a regretful voice.

" I should have apologized. My strength is not yet strong enough to fight the God of Light "Asmothia while wiping away her tears.

" Daughter Thia, you don't have to apologize to me. All of this happened because of my own weakness. I'm willing to die if that's necessary. Calm down "

Asmothia lowered her head, her unraveled hair covering her face. A trembling voice rang out from his lips that were filled with tears.

" Stupid! How can I calm down if my servant is hurt? Our bond is already established, the pain experienced by the servant is my pain as well. So, never say such words again "

Morgan gently stroked his head, then wiped away the tears that kept flowing.

" King Hellbert has already acknowledged my existence as your servant. In the future, I will fight even harder to meet your expectations “

The two strengthened each other until Asmothia finally stopped crying. Suddenly, the Duma went into Morgan's room.

" Oh, it's awake. I'm very worried. You were brought here in appalling circumstances. Severe wounds and high fever, all mixed into one. Fortunately, there's this little girlfriend of yours who takes care of all your wounds "

“ She's not my girlfriend! “ Shout them with compact.

Asmothia got up from her seat, her face looked irritated, and she squeezed the pillow firmly, "Old man! You better not talk recklessly, or I'll turn you into a fry man! "

" Yes, yes, I understand "said the Duma anxiously. As he was leaving, the Duma approached Morgan. " Later tonight, you guys come to the front room. I have something I want to say "

Morgan nodded in understanding, then the Duma left them. The day turned evening, the atmosphere became unusual. Many rooms are dark, while some are light only with dim light. Morgan and Asmothia walked towards the front room, passing through the dim passageway. When they reached the room, the Duma was already sitting down with his leisure, accompanied by a few glasses of liquor on the table.

" Come here and sit down, enjoy your time while still being able to "take the Duma with you while showing the empty seat next to it. Morgan sat beside him, filled with curiosity. " What do you mean? "

" Morrow morning, you must leave this place. The death of one of the legions of legend has spread throughout the land. Everyone in the kingdom will be individually inspected by selected warriors, this action led by both forces of legend Richard and Sins. In this examination, everyone was obliged to swear an oath to worship the God of Light before the statue of the god. If anyone refused to swear, they would be put to death "

Asmothia muttered, "Human has indeed gone mad "

Duma poured milk into the glass and gave it to Asmothia. " It's true, people are crazy sometimes. However, as a result of the battle between the Light God and the Sword God, the humans in this land were increasingly losing their minds. Why bother worshipping a god yet live in madness? It is better to rely on the devil who clearly helps his followers, including this old man "

" huh? " asmothia was surprised.

" I will be your follower, Princess Thia. I will meet all your needs in Luminos. Food, clothes, knowledge, information, everything I'll prepare "

Asmothia turned her face away. " Hmmm... I am not like an angel who helps weak people, nor am I as good as you think, old man. But remember, you have to prepare everything well, especially food "

Duma laughed loosely as he flicked his glass onto the table. Asmothia continued eating snacks and drinking milk. Morgan observed the surroundings, he felt happy feeling the warmth of the atmosphere. Suddenly, the door opened. They all looked towards the door, and it turned out that Grandma Silva had come carrying a box. He approached Asmothia and opened the box. There are lots of chocolate pastries in it.

Asmothia tasted the cake, and when one bite entered her mouth, she cried out in excitement. His spirit was burning, making him instantly finish the cake in a matter of seconds.

" I already know that you are not a traitor, but at least make more of this cake! "

Everyone gathered inside the Duma shop, they enjoyed the time together before leaving the place. The Duma cooked a lot of food and snacks, and Asmothia enjoyed the dish very much. Morgan and Granny Silva played board games, all enjoying the warm atmosphere created between them. At last they all fell asleep, not feeling that day so fast. The sound of the wall clock clanging loudly indicates the time is already dawn. The duma awoke from his sleep, immediately waking up everyone who was asleep.

Morgan who just woke up immediately rushed to pack things, until everything was complete in a few hours. On their journey, they choose to separate in order to avoid pursuit. Duma and Granny Silva moved towards the forest, while Morgan and Asmothia headed to the sea.

" This time, the kingdom is actually hunting Morgan and Princess Thia, regardless of life or death. At any rate, you must leave this place immediately. Grandma Silva and I will head to the forest to distract them. Your task, take Princess Thia to the backyard of the store, there is a cave that will take you directly to the beach" said Duma.

Morgan put a big bag on his back, "Alright, I get it… "

Asmothia interrupted the conversation in an arrogant tone, "This time, we will go to the monster island! "

While observing them, the Duma scratched his head. " May the boy not lose his life too soon "

Morgan and Asmothia arrive at the back of the shop, where a cave is hidden behind dense foliage. They entered the cave, with no light in it at all. Darkness covered the entire street, so Morgan stumbled several times and slipped inside the cave.

“ Looks like you have not experienced in exploring dark places “

" It seems like you haven't experienced exploring a dark place like this "inspired Asmothia arrogantly. But before he could say anything, suddenly...

" Bruukk! "

His head hit a stalactite that hung to the ground, and he fell. Asmothia felt annoyed and rolled around irregularly. Then, he summoned fire spirits to illuminate every corner of the cave. The spirit appeared with a huge blazing fire. Asmothia stood straight, crossed her arms, and her face was full of confidence. However, the flames that had previously been blazing large suddenly shrank into candlelight. The fire also has small legs and jumps.

" huh? " surprised Asmothia, astonished by the flat-face look.

Morgan wanted to laugh, but he held it off. The small flame was silent for a moment and then lay down and fell asleep. Asmothia's frustration was mounting, so she immediately shouted loudly.

" Yeah! Wake up, you little fucking fire! Light up immediately the entire path inside this cave! "

Quickly, the small flame dashed into the cave at lightning speed. Every place he passed by lit up with fire on the walls of the cave. The originally dark cave became bright, and the entire space was clearly visible. They continued their journey across the long cave passage. By the time they had reached a quarter of the way, the water droplets from the stalactites above them began to flow profusely. Water flooded their paths, reaching their knees. Asmothia finally sat on Morgan's shoulders, as the water had reached her chest.

" Hey, my waiter. Be careful not to slip, yes "said Asmothia while trying to calm herself down.

" Be calm, Princess Thia, everything is safe" Morgan replied with confidence.

It was the first experience for Asmothia to sit on one's shoulders. His hands trembled as he held Morgan's head . Their journey continued far, for most of the day, until they finally arrived on dry land.
