The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing

#290 - Impossible. Absolutely impossible.

Sylvia had already been completely defeated and withdrawn, no longer communicating at all, nor yelling and shouting for them to let him leave.

His eyes were vacant, with an expression of being completely broken.

Zun Zun hadn't even told Sylvia that his corpse would be used as material to make magical tools and various experimental products. If he knew, he might desperately shout, 'Guh, just kill me!' or something like that.

Forget it, I shouldn't provoke him anymore.

"In any case, to prevent Sylvia from causing me trouble, I won't sell him for now. But I'd like to leave him here, is that alright?"

"Yes! Of course… um, um, um!"

Barnier immediately covered the mouth of the idiot shopkeeper who was about to agree without hesitation, his face hidden behind the mask revealing an obvious cunning smile of a merchant.

"Does the guest want to use the storage service?"

"Storage service… hey, I didn't have this service when I left the Dullahan here."

"That's because We hadn't come before."

He said it as a matter of course.

He was really annoying. Although Zun Zun wouldn't swindle Wiz, Barnier's calculating merchant nature was unpleasant in every way.

"Don't like We? Sniff, sniff—, um, this negative emotion is wonderful!"

Great, he was doing it on purpose.

Demons lived on negative emotions, and he was doing this to stir up Zun Zun's emotions, but there was nothing she could do about it.

"Just say it, how much?"

"100 million Eris."

Why don't you just rob me!?

…If I said that, Barnier would definitely say something annoying like, 'Robbing money isn't as fast as this,' so I resolutely didn't give him the chance.

"10 million Eris, any higher and I'll—"

"Deal!"

Barnier grabbed Zun Zun's hand and slapped it decisively.

Damn it, I offered too much!

Everyone must have had this experience before.

You see a piece of clothing you like in a shopping mall, and thinking the price is too high, you retaliate by ruthlessly haggling, but you didn't expect the merchant to agree immediately.

This depressing emotion was once again enjoyed by Barnier. I couldn't help but suspect that he didn't care about the amount of money, but simply wanted to savor Zun Zun's negative emotions.

"Speaking of which, there's no expiration date, right?"

"No, no, the guest's storage time is unlimited, but… if the guest takes it away, re-storage will still cost 10 million Eris, please be aware."

Under Zun Zun's somewhat dangerous gaze, Barnier raised his hands and said this. But his expression seemed certain that Zun Zun would have that day.

Being able to see the future is really cheating.

Zun Zun never doubted Barnier, just like he never doubted his sister's fortune-telling, the accuracy of both was 100%, except for the difference in how far they could see.

A true god-level fortune teller.

"No, if we're really talking about fortune-telling, We can't compare to your sister."

"Don't read my mind."

Zun Zun rolled his eyes unhappily.

Another BUG about Barnier was that he could unscrupulously read other people's minds, which was headache-inducing.

"Then Sylvia will be temporarily stored here with you… but before that, there's one thing I want to ask Sylvia."

"Hmm?"

Sylvia, who was being treated like an object at will, hadn't reacted yet, but after hearing that Zun Zun had something to ask him, he slowly raised his head and looked at him with vacant eyes.

"Sylvia, when we first met, I used a very powerful move on you, a move where either you die or I die. It should have succeeded smoothly, but in the end, nothing happened. Honestly, I'm a little disappointed. So, Sylvia, can you tell me the reason?"

That's right, it was about who had the harder life.

The first time they met, Zun Zun decisively used his trump card ultimate move for a first-meeting kill, but nothing happened.

He had to figure this out.

Otherwise, it would be bad if this happened again when he encountered an enemy in the future.

"Move?"

Sylvia was stunned for a moment. After careful consideration, Zun Zun noticed that his eyes were constantly darting around, obviously plotting something bad.

"I can tell you, but you have to let me go."

"Please don't joke, that's impossible."

"Then I don't know anything."

Sylvia also showed an expression of having Zun Zun in his grasp, obviously he also realized that this might be the weakness of the damned Crimson Demon in front of him. If he could understand, the Demon King's army would no longer be afraid.

And Zun Zun also saw through this.

"It seems Sylvia doesn't know."

He turned around and left.

"Wait, wait!" Sylvia quickly stopped Zun Zun and shouted, "I don't know anything about what you said! At least explain it a little more clearly, okay!"

"Well… I guess I'll forget it after all."

"Hey!"

"Just kidding."

After thinking for a while, Zun Zun asked very seriously.

"Sylvia, do you have hostility towards me?"

"Hostility?"

"That's right, like wanting to kill me, defeat me… or something like that."

"Of course I do! I want to kill you right now!"

Sylvia didn't hide his malice at all.

Hmm?

Could it be that he guessed wrong?

Zun Zun thought that the skill would be invalidated because the enemy had no killing intent or malice towards him, but now it seemed that it wasn't like that? Was he overthinking it?

"No, you should change your way of thinking."

"Barnier, do you have something to say?"

"We think you should ask if Sylvia had any hostility or malice towards you at that time."

A sudden realization!

That's right, people change with different events and times. One second they might be friends, and the next second they might be enemies, so could it be possible?

"So, what was it like?"

"At that time… no."

"No?"

The latest ⊥ novel ⊥ is at ⊥ Six ⊥ 9 ⊥ Books ⊥ Bar ⊥ First ⊥ Release!

"That's right. The Demon King-sama told me when I came to not hurt a Crimson Demon with a crown and a red gem named Zun Zun. Although I don't know the reason, since the Demon King-sama said so, I'll do it. So when I knew you were Zun Zun, I didn't have any hostility towards you."

As expected.

He guessed right.

Barnier chuckled, "How is it, are you satisfied with this answer?"

"Basically. But there are too few cases to prove it, so I'll keep it for the next time to confirm." Zun Zun was a representative of the rigorous faction, and he would never be ambiguous about things related to his life.

However, the same new problem arose.

"—Why did the Demon King tell you not to hurt me?"

"I don't know! By the way, you heard what I said just now, are you trying to find fault, kid!"

Sylvia was very irritable.

Could it be that he killed his horse…

Oh, he really did kill it.

Zun Zun looked at Barnier and Wiz, and they both shook their heads, looking completely unaware.

"The Demon King didn't tell We about this when We left. Rather, We was begged by that crybaby Demon King to come, and We left because it was annoying to listen to. Considering that We are demons, and We rely on human emotions to maintain life, We wouldn't hurt humans, so he didn't tell We, right?"

"I, I too… the Demon King-sama didn't tell me, no, rather, I haven't seen the Demon King-sama for a long time."

After all, the weak-willed lich girl was only responsible for maintaining the barrier.

The Dullahan definitely didn't know, and Hans was dead and couldn't answer.

Forget it, let's leave it at that for now.

"Demon King-sama ah… speaking of which, could I have seen the Demon King-sama before? Like at a succubus shop or something?"

Zun Zun knew.

Although the Demon King was the highest leader of the organization, he often ran to the succubus shop in Axel to enjoy himself. Plus, he always generously treated the adventurers there, so maybe he owed him a favor?

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"Sylvia?"

Demon King Army cadre… no, former Demon King Army cadre Sylvia loudly denied Zun Zun's guess.

"Why do you say that? You seem to admire the Demon King a lot?"

"Because the Demon King-sama is worthy of admiration!"

Sylvia put his hands together and said like a girl in love, "The Demon King-sama is a role model for demons. He is diligent and conscientious in his work, and kind and loving to his subordinates. Every time I go to him for something, he helps me solve it. Besides, every time I propose to merge with the Demon King-sama, he righteously refuses! How could such a Demon King-sama go to a succubus shop!?"

Wow—

What a thick filter.

If Zun Zun didn't know that the Demon King did sneak into the succubus shop, he might really be deceived by Sylvia.

Speaking of which, are you serious?

You are male in physiology, right! You have a huge root, right? Is merging that merging, not the merging I'm thinking of?

…Wait a minute!

The Demon King came to the succubus shop, could it be because Sylvia was always clamoring to merge, and he was so scared that he came to relieve the overwhelming fatigue?

The more I thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

You need to know that men need equally huge hearts to comfort them when they suffer huge setbacks in this area, and the big sisters in the succubus shop happen to have extremely broad and huge hearts.

"Okay, I have no questions."

"Then We will take him away."

Barnier picked up the bottle containing Sylvia, and while Sylvia was struggling and shouting, he casually stuffed it into his pocket, making the bottle disappear like a magic trick.

"Space magic?"

"Does the guest want to learn it? It's free."

"The free ones are the most expensive. Say it, what's the price?"

"Become a lich."

"Get lost."

Zun Zun signaled him to get as far away as possible, but he didn't expect his words to stimulate Wiz, and she couldn't help but sob and cry, saying that she was sorry for being born a lich.

But just as they managed to relax for a while, the accumulated troubles came one after another as if they could no longer hold back.

"Something's wrong, Zun Zun!"

Darkness suddenly broke into the magic item shop.

Zun Zun was slightly stunned when he saw her, and said, "If it's Kazuma asking you to inquire about the skill point potion, then please tell him that he can only share the money after it's sold, until then please wait patiently… Why, why do you have the tragic expression that the Dustiness family is about to fall into ruin?"

Darkness didn't say anything, she handed over a letter.

Open it.

Read it.

"Oh, ho, it seems the Dustiness family might really be falling into ruin now."
