445 Chapter 445

The Deep Sea Alligator king was now convinced when it heard the name of one of the seven kings that ruled the clan of ancient treants. A Being so powerful that it could never hope to match. To hear their ruler's name directly from the demon, proved that the demon was not lying.

That is to say, he really did experience their strength and was working his way towards defeating them. Compared to itself who gave up after suffering a devastating defeat from the subordinate of a seven king, the demon was looking forward and working his way.

The Deep Sea Alligator King did not know how the demon was going to achieve something like that, but right now it did not have any other choice. Its subordinates still needed a little more time to arrive which meant that he was out of options.

Neverthless, the Deep sea alligator king didn't plan to stall for time anyways. It looked towards Simon and declared "Very well, I accept your rule. I'm ready to become your subordinate. In any case, I was defeated by you… as the victor, you have the right to decide my fate".

At this moment, Simon released an inconspicuous sigh he had been holding for a while. Although he did not show in his face, in all honesty, he was quite nervous.

Yes, he had managed to defeat the Deep Sea Alligator King; however, he was powerless to do anything if the latter was still hell-bent on refusing his offer.

Unlike the Lightning draconic Serpent who had the dragon bloodline and could be subdued using the [Ancient Draconic Compel], the beast in front of him not was from dragon lineage thus if it refused to become his subordinate and give its essence blood to form the contract, even Simon won't be able to do anything.

It was not he can really kill it, since he had to subdue the latter to keep his promise with Aldebaran. Thus when he saw the Deep Sea alligator king finally submit to him, he felt a weight drop down from his shoulders.

He took a deep breath and felt his back drench with sweat from the tension. Without wasting any more time, Simon asked the Deep Sea Alligator King to give its essence blood so he could seal the Blood contract.

A blood contract was a pact between two parties that sealed them into a master-servant relationship. According to the memories that Simon had inherited, only a demon noble could initiate a blood contract and it needed the essence blood of the one being subordinated.

There were different types of contracts a demon could perform but for a low ranking demon viscount like him, most of them were still out of reach.

It is said that when a demon performs a contract with the other party, only some special means or the death of the demon could break it. If someone tries to break it forcefully, they would suffer from intense repercussions that might even lead them to their death.

However, the blood contract that Simon performed wasn't that strong and had to be renewed after a set period of years. Even the authority and binding power he had over the Deep Sea alligator King was much weaker than the one he had over Lightning Draconic Serpent.

Although the blood contract technique was weak, it worked fine for now. If in the future the Deep Sea Alligator King ever tried to break out of its bindings, Simon could always show it its place. By then, he would be much more stronger than he was now and capable of performing even more powerful contracts.

Right after Simon initated the blood contract, a deep crimson magic circle with complex runes appeared in front of him and swiftly absorbed the essence blood of the beast. Following which, the pool of blood underneath the Deep Sea Aligator King started shining and churning.

The phenomenon lasted until the latter felt a mark of some sort form deep inside its blood. When the Deep Sea Aligaotr King tried to focus on it more, it felt an overwhelming pressure and a force that shouldn't be coming from a low-raking demon, from the mark.

Disturbed, the Deep Sea Alligator King opened its eyes and looked at the demon again wondering what kind of power was that just now. That kind of oppressive feeling could only come from beings someone much stronger.

"You that…" it tried to ask something but seeing the clueless look of the demon, the words got stuck in his throat.

Was it imagining things? Could that power be something of a mistake on his part?

"You are being rude to your new master. Not you—from now on address him as my lord".

The Bloodthorn demonic warhorse who was standing beside Simon reprimanded in a harsh tone. It did not like the attitude the newbie adopted towards their master just now. Thus, it couldn't help but remind it who was the master of its fate now.

The deep Sea alligator king shifted its eyes from the demon towards the warhorse. Now that it looked at the other guy carefully and from this close, it could sense an oppressive feeling that generated from its bloodline from the warhorse.

Its eyes which had already submitted to its fate, went wide with surprise once again. For beasts like them, they could determine each other's strength through the suppression they felt through their bloodline.

If there is no suppression, it meant that the other party was weak and vice versa if the suppression is too strong.

From this, the Deep Sea Alligator King realised that the warhorse in front of it was much stronger than itself. Perhaps it was already a disaster class? A class that was close yet somehow out of reach for the Deep Sea Alligator King.

What's more, such a being was subordinated and absolutely submissive towards the demon even going as far as to threaten someone who disrespects its master.

While the Deep Sea Alligator king was lost in its thoughts, Simon and the warhorse conversed.

"It's alright… it's not like I care about how it addresses me or something. As long as he is loyal to me, there is no need for me to persecute him".

The Bloodthorn Demonic Wahrose did not like the idea of its master being addressed like that thus it voiced out—

"But my lord even if you say so, one must at least address their master with a proper title of respect. This guy was just beaten by my lord but still had the audacity to speak like that. Now that my lord is also its master, I believe it should show respect by calling you as such. Even the Lightning draconic Serpent who is much more stronger than this guy is respectable when addressing you".

Simon: "Well…".

'Lightning Draconic Serpent?!' when the word came up in their conversation, the Deep Sea Alligator king who was thinking to himself, immediately snapped out of his thoughts.

"Wait are you guys talking about that Lightning Draconic Serpent, one of the three overlords of north alongside me?" it couldn't help but butt in.

Simon nodded his head at his question and added with a shrug of his shoulders "You are the second so called overlord of the north who has submitted to me. The first one was being the Lightning Draconic Serpent".

The Deep Sea Alligator King blink its eye a few times before muttering to itself "how can that be? as much as I hate to admit it, that guy was indeed stronger than me and even has the dragon bloodline. To think even he was subdued by this demon".

Simon did not care what the Deep Sea Alligator King was thinking, after he was finished completing the contract, the beast was now his subordinate.

Simon stored his sword back in his inventory and pointed out "I'll give you a few days of time, inform you subordinates about who their lord is now. If they dare to show any discontent I'll kill them. After a few days, I will come to take you to your new place".

Seeing the demon declare so and turn around to leave with the warhorse, the Deep Sea Alligator King hurriedly asked out.

"What do you… ahem, what does my lord mean by that? Are you asking to move out of this place?". The query of the Deep Sea alligator king was only natural, from the demon's words it could tell that his new master was planning to move them away from here.

Since it was mostly holed up around this area, It did not know about Simon's dungeon. Thus it was sceptical when the latter said that he would take them away. As far as it knew, there was no other lake big enough for it and its subordinates around these parts..i.e... except the western region.

However, it was scurried away by the other races living there thus it chose this lake which was barely to its liking. It has been living here for more than 200 years, suddenly being asked by its new master to move out of here, it would obviously have some misgivings.

"Ah, I almost forgot to explain that part. I'm a demon noble you see so of course I have my own dungeon. I'll prepare a floor big enough for you and all of your subordinates to live in. All you have to do in exchange is to defeat any intruders that come your way. That will be your duty as my subordinate".

Simon did not wait for the latter, after leaving his words, he along with his warhorse flew into the sky and out of their sight.

A gawking bloody alligator could be seen hanging down its mouth as it looked at the sky in a daze.
