Dreams To Return: The God Of The Tower
57. Contract (2)

"Why do you ask if you already know the answer?"

"Eh what?"

"The sign came about because we made a contract with you"

Silence struck in the classic room, the sound of the fireplace was heard quite clearly along with the sound of owl chirping outside the window. "You're kidding, right?" Novan tried not to believe it but Leviathan just increasingly smiled, a smile that is quite suspicious.

"You should be honored, man" the remark came out like a spear to Novan. He did not want this, all he wanted was to drive those bastard demons out of the comfort dream so that he could reduce the impact of the disaster despite having to trap them in a temporary contract, but now he's got a soul contract.

"Wait on! I never agreed to make a contract! This means it's not legal!" Shouted Novan not accept.

"Agreed to disagree you've made it" the sound of the debate both woke Fobetor and Mammon lying on the bed, the two creatures then looked at Leviathan and Novan alternately in silence.

Novan clenched his teeth in annoyance but then he fell silent before he then suddenly gave the order "subject!" And suddenly Leviathan bowed without a fight, making Fobetor, Mammon even Leviathan himself surprised.

In this world there are three types of contracts between demons and humans, the first type of contract is when humans beg the demons to help him: that is the contract of the sect, the, the second contract is when the two sides between humans and demons agree to cooperate with each other: the contract of roasting, and the latter is the contract that only the devil wants: the contract of subordinates.

Contrary to the sect contract that requires humans to submit to demons for the safety of their souls, the subordinate contract made by the direct demon's will requires that the demon obey his human and in return he will get the human soul if the human dies. Since Leviathan and Mammon were demons who did not care about contracting on humans, they then only knew of two types of contracts.

Usually only high-level and low-level demons are interested in establishing contact with human subordinates, especially demons who only want a special soul.

Now Leviathan and Mammon seem to realize their mistake for making a contract without the consent of Novan, in other words only their party who wants this contract and not Novan. Indirectly they want to be subordinates who will serve Novan until Novan dies. They gulped with great difficulty as they remembered that it was an irrevocable contract, a strong blood chain had bound them both, making Leviathan and Mammon unable to cancel the contract.

"Good, you fool" said Fobetor who then changed his form to be similar to Novan.

"Damn.."

"...." - ".Novan was silent looking at the two demons and then sighed "you are so careless." he said as if nagging them. Both Leviathan and Mammon could only fall silent and bow, making Novan even more annoyed by their pitiful expression "all right let's just say this contract doesn't exist" novan's words immediately made Leviathan and Mammon shout loudly.

"Where can that be?!"

"Then what do you want to be like?!"

The sound of knocking on the door rang out and teased their time, the door opened and from there a bright blue haired woman seemed to smile clumsy and embarrassed. "I'm sorry for bothering you..." Her smile was soft and calm, her eyes were as blue as the beautiful lake water and her long hair was slightly wavy as the flow of beautiful blue water.

Leviathan went straight to the door and asked the woman "it's okay.you're not bothering us, really.." There was nothing strange at first before Novan then realized Leviathan's ears were flushed a little, and then Novan's gaze was fixed on the woman in the doorway. The two eyes that had opposite colors met each other and the woman smiled happily towards Novan.

"You..." Novan tries to remember the woman but he still does not remember, at least before the woman came to him while giving him a pearl-filled clam and introducing himself.

"Sorry to meet you, thank you for helping me.." he bowed his head politely and bowed slightly as if giving greetings "I Amfitrit, Goddess of the sea. You can call me Amfi" her sea-blue eyes emitted a light of tranquility and a sweet smile formed on her face. Novan looked at him with a flat gaze, he was at a loss as to what to respond, while Leviathan seemed to stare silently from a distance.

Unconsciously Novan stared at Amfi for too long and without him wanting a vision to appear, Novan could now see a black hand closing Amfi's eyes, and from the sidelines of the black finger was blood flowing, and from the other side of the finger was blood flowing, a vision that indicates danger is approaching. Novan instantly regained his senses as his pale face was realized by everyone, making Mammon instantly shout towards him.

Novan now rubbed his face, trying to eliminate the sight of what he had just seen from his head. Novan is now increasingly aware that his past is starting to haunt him more and more. The black hand that closed Amfi's eyes was the embodiment of Novan's guilt in the fifth round, as he chose to ignore those he didn't recognize and only care about who was on his side. Novan closed his eyes to care for others, but now he really felt he could not ignore others, especially innocent people who were victims of the fifth round disaster.

Novan tried to calm himself, making the atmosphere now more calm. Fobetor seemed to ask with a panicked expression but Novan immediately answered him with a relaxed expression as possible.

"Is something wrong?"

"No, I'm just dizzy for a second"

Novan shook his head and then smiled faintly, his red eyes for a moment staring in the other direction and he thought what he was doing now. Novan's eyes were then glued to a glass window that featured a beautiful view of the night sea "Are we now in Nalayatia?" and immediately Fobetor answered.

"really"

Where was the pope yesterday?" Question after question came out of Novan's mouth making all in the room did not have time to answer them one by one until finally they asked Novan to calm down.

"We know there are a lot of questions in your head but be calm first" Fobetor said.

"Then answer my question"

"Well, this is a pretty long story..."

The dance starts tonight and Fobetor, who plays Askara Akasa, has to attend a party to maintain the image of the figure he plays, has dozens of times swearing of annoyance he said in his head. Fobetor is uncomfortable with creatures other than gods, but he is much more uncomfortable being mobbed by earth creatures especially humans.

"I think this will be fine because Novan also looks okay..it turns out he is smart to hide his expression" Fobetor decided to walk outside the palace and finally rest in the garden, hoping no one would find him.

The cold night wind and the star-studded black sky perfectly matched the quiet and desolate atmosphere in the garden. Fobetor closed his eyes for a moment, letting himself enjoy the atmosphere of the night quietly and breathe in the fresh air that was blowing on him.

But in the middle of that silence suddenly his stomach hurt, as if a dagger was piercing him. Fobetor stared at his hand which covered his stomach due to the reflex of the pain, making himself then become unsettled.

"Did something happen to Novaan?"

He wanted to leave immediately but he knew that his duty was now to be the figure of Askara, a gentle and warm noble. He could not leave his role, at least that was what he thought before a crow flew quickly towards him.

"Wine! The danger! The danger!"

Without even being asked Fobetor knew it was Loki, Loki flew quickly around Fobetor before he changed his form to Askara, giving the code that Fobetor could leave immediately and without the stale bases Fobetor immediately changed his form into an eagle and flew quickly to the top the direction of the whale that continues to wrangle because of the gold chain.

As soon as Fobetor arrived the whale's body began to split in two and from within there a black dragon that breathed out ice and a strong aura of sinful envy appeared.

Fobetor almost wanted to turn his form into a dragon in case something serious happened, but Kanz immediately called Fobetor and then explained everything. Fobetor then took Mammon and Leviathan to the port city to hide, while the whale's body began to crack and crumble into ashes creating black clouds in the night sky.

"Then you woke up. At least that's what happened in broad outline.."

"In the outline?" Novan looked at Fobetor with a doubtful look, Fobetor seemed reluctant to tell more details but Novan knew what was really going on in the middle of the atmosphere. "You must have had a fight" he said and successfully made the three clucked annoyed simultaneously. Making Novan think whether the contract can affect a person's personality.

"Somehow the longer you guys look like me"

The three frowned at the same time, making Amfi laugh.

"Oh yes there was someone who was looking for you earlier, but he asked me to hand this over" Amfi then looked at Novan then handed him a letter, and then handed me a letter, a black letter written in bright red ink and Hopeless's name was written there.
