Chapter 560 Female Devil Part 2
"I guess that is a possibility." The female devil had never thought of things this way. There had been many waves within the underworld as well. There were many uprisings that all ended in failure but also caused huge damage at the same time. If it was not for her father stepping forward at the time, they would have easily been wiped out. Their current family could only sit on the throne due to how powerful their father was. But if, say, someone were to abide their time and grow stronger and stronger without notice, then they could easily wipe out their family if they grew stronger than her father.
"The more I think about it, the more your words seem true." The female devil could only sigh, before asking: "Then let me ask you this…. What would you do? If you were in a situation where you were under attack and had no way out, what would you do in the end?"
"Are you joking?" Blake asked mockingly. "My world is already under attack. Your people killed millions of people from my planet to summon the gates of the underworld. Then, your people rushed through the gate and began murdering and enslaving people left and right. We are already pushed into the corner. Right now, you are lucky to even be alive at this time."
Blake's eyes were cold. For the first time in the female devil's life, she found a man to be quite handsome. He did not hold back. He did not try to curry favor with her or give her a fake smile. From the looks of it, he truly wanted to kill her here and now, but he seemed to be holding back. Yes, he was holding back, and she knew why. The place they were in was not meant for battle. The people below were his weaknesses. She understood this, but she did not wish to use such a weakness.
"I see. I should thank you then. I do not wish to die so soon." The female devil looked to Blake's side to see Ishtar standing there. The female devil was no fool. She knew that the woman standing there was powerful. If they were to fight, the outcome would be hard to discern. "But, I do wonder if you could give in to a small request of mine." The female devil smiled as she said this. She wanted to see with her own eyes what this man and his people would accomplish.
"A request? For invaders to make a request, this is not something I had expected. If it does not harm my people, II might be able to fulfill it." Blake just wanted this woman to leave. He did not wish to start a fight over his city if at all possible.
"I wish to follow you and your people. I want to see what you can achieve as rabbits pushed into a corner, as you said before." She wanted to know the future. Would this man really be able to push her people back to the underworld and seal the gate? Maybe he would even kill her father. If so, wouldn't it be worth being with such a strong man? The female devil wished to find something that was not boring. And now this man and his people fell into her lap. She hoped he could entertain her.
Blake was about to reject her when Ishatr grabbed his hand and pulled him aside. "Blake accept, but under the condition that she signs a soul contract to not harm our people, our lands, and our friends as well as their lands. She also has to help us within the astral domain to protect our people."
Blake thought for a moment and realized that this was also a possibility. Since the female devil seemed to want to watch a good show, she could watch, but she also had to pay a fee. Blake nodded and kissed Ishtar on the cheek. "My wife is a genius!"
Ishtar blushed slightly before playfully hitting Blake. "Just go ask!"
Blake smiled and turned to the female devil, who was looking at him with envious eyes, which slightly confused Blake, but he ignored it. "You can follow us, but you have to make a soul contract with us. One where you can not harm me and my people, my friends, and our lands. That consists of these two floating islands. And lastly, you have to agree to one of my requests as well."
"Oh?" The female devil felt that this was truly interesting. Not backing down and even making requests of their own. This was a first for her. She had always done things by force, so this was very new. She liked this. "Deal!"
"Then it is settled. My wife will do the honors of placing the soul contract on you." Blake let Ishtar step forward.
Ishtar did not hesitate to appear in front of the female devil. She looked at her and snorted: "You should know by now that we are pretty much even in power. But let me tell you that if you dare to try to break this contract, it will be you who will suffer in the end."
"I may be someone who does things differently than your people, but I will not miss out on something so interesting as this. Plus, I also have a bit of interest in your husband there." The female devil licked her lips. She was trying to egg Ishtar on, but sadly, she only got a mocking grin from Ishtar and then a sharp pain in her soul. She glared at Ishtar, who only smiled back at her.
"You should really be careful. Because that man there is someone that even devils and gods can not go against. He is someone who has withstood the flames of battles many times against enemies much stronger than him. He has prevailed and protected his home each time. If you try to eat him, I am sorry to say that it will be you who is eaten in the end."
