The Demon General Is A Man

Oath

CHAPTER 7: THE OATH

Morgan stepped into his room and met Asmothia who was sitting on the bed. His soft voice rang out as he said, "What's the matter, Princess Thia? "

" I smell delicious food. My stomach feels empty now. Give me something I can eat! Now too! " answered Asmothia while grabbing her stomach.

 " I don't know your food choices. We talked about it in the kitchen before. In this place, only animal meat is available. However, human flesh is impossible"

Frowning, Asmothia stood up, and shouted, "Do you consider me a lowly demon? I'm not that low to eat human flesh! Give me some food soon! "

Morgan took her to the kitchen for breakfast. The Duma was surprised to see Morgan was already familiar with him. " Well, you're reliable, yeah. The little girl is now a good boy "

Asmothia shouted, "Call me Princess Thia! If you keep calling me 'little girl', I don't hesitate to turn you into ashes, old man! "

The Duma laughed at the threat, then approached Morgan and whispered, "Hey, it seems that your fate is not so good. How did you find this arrogant boy? "

Asmothia threw her gaze towards the Duma with a pouting face, realizing it was Morgan immediately putting food on the table. He hurried so as not to make the girl even more angry, then prepared food on everyone's plate. All the dishes and vegetables were arranged to perfection, then they started eating.

As the Duma and Morgan were about to eat, they looked in amazement at how Asmothia was eating the dish so voraciously. The girl devoured three large fish and their bones, a large bowl of vegetables was eaten, and a large round loaf of bread vanished in an instant. The unblinking duma saw him eating unnaturally, as if enough food for three adults was eaten alone by him. Asmothia greedily finished one large bowl of vegetables along with its gravy, four dishes, two glasses of water, and one glass of milk quickly.

" This brat is really a demon, devouring all the food already seems possessed. But it's good that he likes my cooking, hehehe. " In the heart of the Duma.

A sense of fullness was already felt Asmothia, words full of arrogance came out from her mouth "I smell the scent of vengeance, it seems you guys have the same purpose "

Asmothia took a deep breath, "And I saw Mr. Hefei has already met you, Morgan. Tell me what he told you "

" Yes, right. A man named Hefei has met me. He just delivered a message from the King that he recognized me as your savior, and he asked me to take good care of you " Morgan was surprised.

" So, I have acknowledged you, "he said with confidence.

After breakfast, the Duma said goodbye to Morgan about to go to the trading center. He wanted to sell the herbs he had collected. Meanwhile, Morgan kept Asmothia from leaving the place, considering that the people who worshiped the God of Light tried to eradicate the demons according to their teachings.

Moments after the Duma left, Asmothia invited Morgan to sit in the living room. They sat face to face at the table, while Morgan had no idea what he was going to do.

Asmothia sat up straight and pointed her index finger, " Morgan, you have been acknowledged by my father and assigned to look after me. This means that you also have to protect me if there is any danger threatening me. The question is, is your strength enough to protect me from harm? "

" Even though I don't have magical powers, I will keep trying. Many people in this kingdom have magic abilities, but since I was born as an ordinary human and did not worship the God of Light, my spirit was not endowed. But I always try to do my best "

Taking a deep breath, he pondered for a moment.

“ Don't be stupid! “ Hit the table with his small hands.

“ That is impossible to do by ordinary humans, because basically humans are weak creatures. Their bodies are prone to disease, their recovery is very slow, easily tired, and easy to die. Although there are so-called superhumans, the superpower is only limited to defeating hundreds of soldiers or lifting small objects. They were not even able to raise their own castle empty-handed. That is why humans borrow the powers granted by immortal beings to gain more power. Do you want to repeat your past? "

Heart-piercing words continued to be thrown out, while he noticed the strong spirit that still emanated from Morgan. Using every word he spoke tried to destroy that spirit.

The self-confidence that always ignited in Morgan instantly turned into despair. He realized how weak he was compared to the legendary hero who possessed incredible strength.

Asmothia held Morgan's hand, "I was just testing your heart. Human weakness lies not in strength, but in the heart. Even so, don't worry. My father trusted you. You will definitely be protected, but I have better advice. What if you become my servant? In that way, your desire to master magic will be realized "he said attentively.

" But, the Duma has promised to train me in mastering magic "

" Hahahaha "Asmothia laughed out loud.

He continued, "The old man may be a genius, but studying magic takes a long time. I've seen humans who sold their lives to my father just to gain magic power. They trained on their own for decades but the effort was in vain. Eventually, they sold their own lives in exchange for a powerful force "

With a loud voice, “ Take a look at this and watch “

Asmothia raised her index finger, suddenly a black colored flame shot out from her fingertips. The fire was dark in color, but it was able to illuminate the room. The fire was brighter than the candles around the room. Then, it turns to blue. At that moment, Morgan could not move his body. He became paralyzed, all his limbs limp and helpless. The fire turned again into a gray color, and Morgan's body could be moved back. However, all of his senses were not functioning. When the fire goes out, everything goes back to normal.

Asmothia smiled arrogantly saying, "Look how weak you are. With just this little flame alone, the effect was so powerful. However, lucky for you, my father has appointed you as my guardian. Otherwise, you will definitely be forced into slavery, and in exchange, your strength will increase tremendously "

(Asmothia holds Morgan's hands)

" Once again, are you willing to be my servant? I will protect you and awaken the magic potential in your spirit. I will train you to be the strongest man among humans, and the strongest man among demons "

Morgan felt this rare opportunity. His heart felt like crying, but he held back. With a unanimous determination, he spontaneously released his hand from Asmothia's grasp. Then, he knelt before her and spoke his vow with confidence, "I swear to be your servant and protect you. Make me strong as you promised "

Asmothia stood up and exclaimed, " Salv orbe! "

The room that had been light instantly became pitch-black. Then, words filled with power filled the entire room.

" By my authority, Asmothia Draconius Vortigernus Infernus Rex Morbithorn Drakarion, Daughter of the Hellbert Demon King Draconius Vortigernus Infernus Rex Morbithorn Drakarion II, I appoint you, Morgan Wolfe, as my servant "

A pitch-black state turned blood-red, a magic circle appeared under Morgan's feet. His heart was racing, and finally, he could not bear it and fainted on the spot.
