Bob sighed as he tossed and turned in his egg. Merlin’s decision to separate him from his contract master was making him anxious. The child of Endow first felt the tug of something dangerous pulling at his connection with Zero and immediately decided to reach through the bond to contact his master. Even if it was up against an ancient being way more powerful than he currently was, Bob was no coward. He would fight scale and claw to protect his kind master. Imagine his horror when he couldn’t reach…-

It didn’t take long to come to a conclusion. "We’re calling those bastards down." It was a simple statement but it had the desired impact. Shittomi clicked her tongue, Amon cussed and left. Baal deadpanned and Lilith rolled her eyes at how predictable everyone’s reactions were. Mammon’s expressions were hidden beneath his hood but it was clear that he disliked the idea as much as everyone else in the room. "Who should we invite over? I hate Michael!" Amon declared. It wasn’t a very…

Over the next few days, Baal noticed a shortage of magic stone supplies in the market. Belles and Begonia received significantly lesser payments in the form of stones and the customer base declined rapidly after the acute scarcity. The only bright side to everything was Wiser’s report about Schaf’s activities. "Will the sheep get punished?" Zero asked. Soon after Zero and Baal made up after their argument, the Demon Lord filled the brunet in on the current circumstances. Zero agreed that the…

"Call..." Baal checked his hands and threw the cards down. "Fold." Two days had gone by with no signs of activity from the goat demon. The Demon Lords were bored out of their minds. Coux decided to introduce a simple game of cards and it didn’t take long before Mammon demanded they partake in the game. Nobody knew how Lilith was doing it but she was making quite the profit. Mammon was ready to call quits after the Demon Queen won for the third time in a row. There was no such thing as beginner’s…

"Manager Schaf," Lord Mammon greeted as the goat demon entered the luxurious office. The curtains were drawn open, allowing the red fiery glow of hellfire surrounding the glamorous building in. Nothing was more terrifying than having a chat with the most notorious Demon Lord in Hell. "Greetings, Lord Mammon. Schaf at your service," the goat demon greeted confidently and Mammon silently commended the demon’s bravery. Not many could stand before him without quaking in their boots. Schaf’s legs looked…

A week passed in Half Moon village with still no news from Baal or the party escorting Zero to the abyss. Hua Tuo was getting slightly worried. Only Lovina was still in contact with the party. The witch was his only thread of connection and that made Hua Tuo regret not following them. The physician sighed and looked up at the sky. Nothing much had transpired in the time Zero had left. The fortification works were progressing smoothly but the sombre atmosphere hung in the air like stubborn old mould. Nobody…

Four days have passed since Zero’s arrival at the Spring of Vitality. Baal sighed. Much had transpired in that short window of time that he was awake. There was no doubt about it, Coux was Lilith’s descendant. The succubus’ blood still ran strong despite the watered down generations. That trader was milking every single ounce of what he had to offer with the covenant mark, not that he was upset about it. Leaving business to the hands of a Van Doux was the right decision. Being mana drained constantly…

Lord Baal’s body double blinked. The ladies brought back groceries as promised for the feast and didn’t seem troubled at all. Unable to help himself, he demanded details about their trip to town. Wiser received some really strange stones that made Lord Baal wary for a while. "What happened while you were there?" he asked while Qin Yun and Amaraline busied away in the kitchen. "Nothing much," she said airily. "We just set up bank accounts and took out a loan to start a small shop." "My account…

The location of their newly acquired shop pleased Coux. It was in a secluded part of town with good traffic of the worst kind. Qin Yun was no stranger to how things worked in the abyss. She wouldn’t be the fox mistress if she was naive. Even in organised towns like this, territories and power struggles existed. Without announcing their alliance, this new shop would definitely be targeted. Coux wasn’t too surprised to have unwelcomed guests waiting for them. The estate agent appointed by the bank ran…

Amaraline didn’t know how to bring up the topic bothering her. In fact, the guilt eating at her conscience bothered her so much that she didn’t notice the bank manager’s arrival. "Greetings esteemed guests of Lord Baal," the manager greeted. He was a short demon who wore a neat business attire completed with a bow tie. Qin Yun smiled slyly at the goat demon and the manager shuddered. In the presence of the powerful fox demoness, the manager felt very nervous. However, he did not expect the…
