The Demon Lord System
Chapter 257: Becoming an Entertainment
(Day - 12:45 - 4 Days before Baidan Festival)
ㅤ
The day passes by briefly, after the rescue of Yuki, Kaito and Eric. The atmosphere within the Kingdom became so bustling and boisterous, moreover Ling Chen was currently able to see the many Giant Air Race that were skirting the area around the Kingdom, especially, seen looking for someone who is certainly the three people who saved him.
ㅤ
While not far from where Ling Chen looked, Kurumi along with Yuki, Eric and Kaito were leaning against one of the biggest Trees. They were looking at Ling Chen who had stood for quite a long time looking at the Kingdom.
ㅤ
“Why haven't you talked much lately?” Eric asked in wonder.
ㅤ
Yuki and Kaito shook their heads slowly, they did not know anything about Ling Chen's current condition. While Kurumi did not answer Eric's question, the three of them looked at him sharply.
ㅤ
Getting the gazes of the three Kurumi turned to look at them.
ㅤ
“What? I don't know shit. Don't get me wrong, I just kept quiet because I thought this might be related to the upcoming War four days.”
ㅤ
“Eh, War? Did you prepare it?” Ask Eric.
ㅤ
Last night they had not had time to ask because their bodies could not withstand the feeling of fatigue and ended up sleeping. Although when they were rescued they had some information about the war, they did not know the information as a whole.
ㅤ
“You guys don't know yet.” Kurumi raised her eyebrows, “Alright I will tell you. You guys see four Dimension Gates at the back?”
ㅤ
The three nodded answering Kurumi's question. While Kurumi who got the answer immediately continued her words.
ㅤ
“This Dimension Gate will later connect the Government which is a reinforcements for us. They will appear from within this Dimension Gate in approximately four more days.”
ㅤ
“When they show up it means we'll be at war with the Giants soon. When that day comes you are free to help to avenge the Giant or want to escape.” Kurumi ended her words by raising her shoulders together.
ㅤ
The three who heard can only be silent. They really hate the Giants, but their abilities are still minimal. They could at least defeat only one Giant at the same time. When attacked by two giants simultaneously they are not sure they will be able to defeat it.
ㅤ
While they were still pensive in silence. Ling Chen walked up to them then sat down in front of the three.
ㅤ
“If you want to help me, then you have to get stronger. Your current abilities are still weak, Kaito, Eric, you have Dragon Class abilities.
ㅤ
“You physically should be able to rival Giant or even more. So I hope you guys focus on improving your physical strength.”
ㅤ
Ling Chen then glanced at Kurumi, “And for you Yuki, you are an illusion user. Your ability is clearly not to attack directly but mentally. So I hope you raise your class strength well.” After telling the two about what they should do, Ling Chen let out a long sigh.
ㅤ
“Thinking it would be like this. Fate is strange, I used to want to seize the Kingdom. And when they managed to get the Kingdom, they took it from me. What a cruel destiny, indeed in life nothing is always easy.” Ling Chen again let out a long breath.
ㅤ
Thinking of facing a horde of giant monsters. Ling Chen who at that time had not prepared at all, ended up making some of his Demonic Pillars die to sacrifice their lives to him.
ㅤ
“We understand Sir!” The three of them answered simultaneously.
ㅤ
Even though it was a bit late Ling Chen put on a smile then gave a small nod. He then dropped his body onto the grass while putting both of his hands behind his head.
ㅤ
“This cheer is very hot, being under this big tree makes me feel comfortable.”
ㅤ
“More wind that blows when the sun is covered in clouds. Huhhhh.. Really cool.” Ling Chen closed his eyes, slowly falling asleep.
ㅤ
Seeing Ling Chen fall asleep, Kurumi immediately sat around her Master then prepared to raise her Master's head to her thigh. However, when he was trying to raise his Master's head, he did not realize that Yuki was doing the same. Make their hands touch a little.
ㅤ
“Ah kak Kurumi please, I don't know brother want to do it.” Yuki smiled awkwardly, feeling embarrassed.
ㅤ
ㅤ
Yuki wanted to return back to Kurumi's words but an explosion rang out loud from within the Kingdom. The explosion managed to make Ling Chen who had just fallen asleep now woke up again.
ㅤ
“What is it?!” Ling Chen asked in surprise.
ㅤ
Kurumi, Yuki just saw the explosion. Hearing his Master's voice they then looked at him with a puzzled expression.
ㅤ
“We ourselves did not know many Masters, when we were sitting from within the Kingdom an explosion sounded loud.” Kurumi explained briefly.
ㅤ
Hearing that Ling Chen also stared at the origin of the explosion, “A really big explosion. But why suddenly there was an explosion?”
ㅤ
When everyone does not know what to answer a very familiar voice sounds.
ㅤ
“This Giant leader went berserk when he found out his son's battered face. And also it was due to knowing the three valuable prisoners disappeared.”
ㅤ
A small Tiger appeared suddenly and sat on Ling Chen's shoulders. He was the Lightning Master, after observing the depths of the Kingdom he disappeared to Ling Chen's location to tell him.
ㅤ
“Master Lightning! You showed up suddenly without telling me first. I was almost surprised shit!” Ling Chen slightly grunted in annoyance.
ㅤ
“Hahahaha sorry-sorry.” Lightning Master laughed out loud, “Ah well by the way you were great also managed to save them. Though they I thought would be an offering for the ritual.” Said the Lightning Master while looking at the three new faces near the tree.
ㅤ
Ling Chen looked at the three of them and then looked back at his Master, “Of course it was because of my diamond plan.” Ling Chen folded his hands together on his chest while closing his eyes, looking flattering to himself.
ㅤ
“Hmm you're just lucky. If I were the Giant Lord. Then I'll make sure the one protecting my prisoners is someone with high abilities. Like three Giants chasing your Dragon comrade.” The Lightning Master pointed at Ling Chen's chest.
ㅤ
Ling Chen stared at his chest, “Tattoo my Dragon seal is indeed here. But master how can you know?” Ling Chen asked in surprise.
ㅤ
“Ah it, of course because of this.” The Lightning Master flicked his hand as soon as a screen was seen. The screen showed a picture of Ling Chen currently talking to the Lightning Master.
ㅤ
“Hmm you deserve to know. Turns out because of this.” Ling Chen snorted a few times seeing himself in sight.
ㅤ
On the screen are four different screens. However, the four screens at this time only showed themselves. This certainly made Ling Chen a little upset because his privacy might be seen.
ㅤ
“Master! I don't want to be seen by this screen! Turn it off now and change look at the others only!” Grunts Ling Chen was annoyed.
ㅤ
While the Lightning Master who heard only raised his shoulders while telling himself not knowing anything.
ㅤ
“What?! Don't you don't know!”
ㅤ
“In fact I don't know. You think the only one with this screen is me? Current Technology Masters are doing several things on this World.”
ㅤ
“One of them is to make you as the entertainment of the top creatures. Not only can I see you, but all the Masters who have bought the System screen from him can see you.
ㅤ
“Maybe you did benefit from his System. But in exchange maybe you should be entertainment for him and the whole upper being. Nothing in this world is free, you even know it. As you often mentioned, Take and Gift.” After saying so, Ling Chen who was in front of the Lightning Master fell down.
ㅤ
“So... In exchange I have this power... I'll be entertainment... Hahaha.” Ling Chen chuckled softly but his tone seemed pushy.
