Chapter 1135 - Small Nether Crystal

"I will become your follower."

All of a sudden, Jostruth said those words that not only shocked Ajax but even the two high-level demon kings in the distance.

"What did you say?"

Even though Ajax heard Jostruth's words, he asked with a slight smile on his face.

"I said, I will become your follower and kill your enemies for you."

Jostruth gritted his teeth as he repeated the words once again.

"What about you two?"

Ajax didn't accept or deny Jostruth's request; instead, he looked at the two high-level demon kings Bralrath and Gostron before asking what they want to do.

"We also like to become your followers."

After seeing that Ajax could stop Jostruth with a single thought, they knew they were no match for Ajax in this world.

To get out of their current situation, all they have to do is to get adapted to it and they are good at it.

So, there was no hesitation when they said those words.

'Che…'

As usual, Jostruth got irritated with the two high-level demon kings as he waited for Ajax to nod his head and accept them as his followers.

"Good."

Ajax nodded his head, making all three high-level demon kings heave sighs of relief as they hurriedly thanked Ajax.

"Huh? Why are you thanking me?"

Ajax asked them with a face full of confusion.

"Didn't you just say 'Good' and nod your head at us?"

Jostruth was the first one to reply to Ajax's question.

"That's right!"

"Doesn't that nod mean you accepted us to be your follower?"

Soon, Bralrath and Gostron followed Jostruth's footsteps as they asked the same thing.

"So, nodding my head means I accepted your request to become my followers? What a joke."

Ajax could not help but scoff at the three high-level demon kings.

"Isn't it better for you to keep up as followers; instead of killing us?"

While Jostruth and Bralrath were silent with Ajax's words, Gostron asked Ajax with a forced smile on his face.

"You have a point there."

Ajax nodded here as he revealed a slight smile on his face before saying, "Okay then. As long as you give me everyone you have on you, I will think about taking you as my followers. What do you say?"

After finishing his words, Ajax looked at them with a slight smile on his face.

"What?"

"You want all our items?"

All the high-level demon kings were surprised as they looked at Ajax with suspicious looks while thinking about Ajax's words.

The thing is when he killed Igunuz, all the items on him got mysteriously destroyed just like the items on the five artificial kings from the grey dwarf world.

And Ajax was eyeing the magical leaves of these high-level demon kings that could help them in travelling from one world to another by flying.

So, he felt as long as he got his hands on those things, he didn't have to wait for the devourer eagle king's 'Portal creation' ability to get out of the cooldown.

Instead, he could fasten the process of getting the world cores at double speed. 

Moreover, Ajax saw they have legend grade weapons and even if he can't use them all, once the trading mirror gets fixed, he could either trade them or just gift them to his friends in the future.

Overall, it was good loot for him.

"Fine...we will give them."

Since they didn't have many options in this grey dwarf world, all they could do was to follow Ajax's words and hope he could keep his words.

"A high-level legend grade shield and whip."

"Two mid-level legend grade short swords."

"A low-level legend grade."

Ajax muttered the grade of the weapons he got from the demon kings as he threw them into his inventory before taking the three magical leaves which turned into small leaves as they appeared in his hands.

'Ding,

Item name:- World-traveller leaf

Grade:- Mid-level legend grade.

Use:- It is used to travel in outer space from one world to another without any problem.

Activation:- Either by spirit stones or the essence of nature.

Soon, the information regarding the magical leaf appeared in front of him and Ajax already knew about the usage of the leaves. So, he was not surprised.

"So, are we good enough to become your followers now?"

After giving all the items on them to Ajax, Jostruth asked Ajax in a low voice while the other two high-level demon kings expectantly looked at Ajax.

"Still, I am not convinced.  So, if you have any last words, you can tell them to me before I kill you."

Ajax shook his head as he replied to the three high-level demon kings with a slight smile on his face.

"Damn you...bastard. So, you are lying all along."

It was Gostron who was hoping that Ajax would not kill them because who would kill the high-level kings that wanted to become their followers?

So, he became furious as he forgot that Ajax was the protector of the grey dwarf world and rushed towards Ajax to kill him.

"Die."

With the ancient protector sword, Ajax casually slashed at the incoming high-level demon king, making him into two equal parts from the middle.

'Ding,

The host killed a high-level demon king.

'Ding,

The host gained 1000 spirit points and a small nether crystal.

As soon as he killed Gostron, as usual, he got the system notification informing him about the kill and the rewards he got for killing.

'Small nether crystal?'

Ajax already knew about the spirit points; however, the same can't be said to the small nether crystal as he summoned the small purple-coloured crystal from the inventory and checked its information.

'Ding,

Item name:- Small nether crystal.

Use:- It stores 100 units of the purest nether energy from the depths of one of the netherworlds.

Note:- This item can help the beings who use the nether energy for their cultivation including the King realm beings.

'What? It can even help the king realm beings with their cultivation?'

Ajax was shocked with the usage of the small purple-coloured crystal in his hands and the first person he thought about after reading the information on the crystal was Sparrow.

'With this, I think her cultivation might reach the peak rank 6 realm.'

Ajax silently kept the crystal back into his inventory as he looked at the two high-level demon kings who were angrily looking at Ajax.

"Do you know why I killed him?"

Ajax revealed a slight smile on his face as he asked them about the reason why he killed Gostron.

"Because he rushed to kill you."

Both the high-level demon kings replied the same thing because if they were in Ajax's shoes, they would have done the same thing or even worse.

"No."

However, Ajax shook his head denying their answer as he continued saying, "I killed him because he was not sincere when he said that he wanted to become my follower."

These words made both the high-level demon kings shiver a little because they knew what Ajax was suggesting as they heard Ajax's words, "So, what should I do with you two?"
