Chapter 1483 Mysterious Masked Reaper's Hall
"Damn it…it is that brat from the Purple Stone World."
When he heard that a young human killed the mutated bronze demon king and his bronze, the Golden Demon Emperor thought about Ajax.
Even though he didn't know Ajax personally, he had heard so much about him from his subordinates.
"According to the watchers, that young human had summoned different elemental spirits and the powerful contracted spirit beasts including the devour eagle kings."
The demon apostle tried his best in maintaining his composure in front of the golden demon emperor as he continued, "In short, it might be the brat from the Purple Stone World."
During the demon invasion of the Purple stone world, Ajax became so famous that even the five demon emperors knew about him and his extraordinary trump cards.
"Damn it…I want him dead. No…I want him alive. I want to make him my slave."
The Golden Demon Emperor wanted Ajax dead; however, in the next second, he changed his mind and decided to make Ajax his slave.
"Since he destroyed my Golden Goose, I should create a new one, right?"
He looked at the most intelligent demon apostle and asked him to come up with a plan.
Among the five demon emperors, the Golden Demon Emperor was the richest one and had the most connections with the emperors from the other races.
What's more, there was a rumor in the demon worlds that he contacts a few human emperors from the Greater Human Worlds from time to time and makes deals with them.
Everything was possible because of the Mutated Bronze Demon King and his world that was connected to the Elemental spirit world.
The Golden Demon Emperor bought the enslaved elemental spirits from the Mutated Bronze Demon King at cheaper prices before selling them to others at a high price because of the demand for the elemental spirits.
However, now, he could not do such business and his old buys would start complaining. So, he wanted to make Ajax his next golden goose.
"But, Emperor, didn't you say that we should not attack the Purple Stone World for a while?"
The demon apostle hesitated a little; however, he knew if he didn't speak anything now, it would become even more difficult for him to speak in the future.
'Damn it…Damn the Demon God.'
The Golden Demon Emperor was so angry right now, he cursed the demon god, 'He wanted us to attack the Purple Stone World out of nowhere and now, he didn't want us to bother with it.'
He could not help but become furious once again before asking, "I don't care about the Demon God. Just find the way to capture Ajax without anyone knowing, not even the other demon emperors much less the human emperors from the Greater Human Worlds."
Nevertheless, the Golden Demon Emperor knew that if those Human Emperors from the Greater Human World knew about Ajax and his battle prowess, they would try to recruit him.
Once Ajax joins any of these human organizations from the Greater Human Worlds, it would be almost impossible for the Golden Demon Emperor to catch Ajax.
"Yes, Emperor. I will contact our spies in the Purple Stone World and come up with a place to capture Ajax."
For some reason, the demon apostle is no longer scared of the Golden Demon Emperor and explained, "Even though that young man might have become the emperor of the Purple Stone World, with a perfect plan, capturing him alive won't be a problem."
"I will give you seven days. Before the auction in the Trader's realm starts, I want that young human to become my slave."
The Golden Demon Emperor nodded his head as he set a deadline for the demon apostle.
"I will accomplish the mission, Emperor."
The demon apostle hurriedly bowed to the Golden Demon Emperor before slowly backing away from that place.
"By the way, if you can't finish the task, you and your entire family will be sent to the mines in faraway smaller worlds to mine for the spirit stones for the rest of your life. I hope you keep that in your mind."
"..."
The demon apostle remained silent and left without saying anything.
…..
In the Masked Reaper's hall of the Battle Tower.
'Slash'
The huge scythe of the masked reaper slashed through Ajax's neck.
'Damn it…did he find out how to clear this hall?'
After slashing his scythe at Ajax, the masked reaper became anxious and muttered to himself.
'Huh?'
On the other hand, Ajax opened his eyes to see the masked reaper standing in front of him without moving from his place.
'Why is his long scythe able to only make small cuts? Why not go for the critical strike?'
Even though Ajax was unable to find the reason for the actions of the masked reaper, he was sure about one thing: he had won in the gamble he took.
'It's time to clear the hall.'
Since he already noticed that using the skills would only boost the masked reaper, Ajax didn't bother to use any skill.
Instead, he summoned his long blood-coloured spear from his inventory.
'Die'
Without wasting any time, Ajax threw the bloodlust spear at the masked reaper who seemed to be frozen in the place where he was standing.
'Puchi'
The bloodlust spear pierced through the masked reaper without any problem.
Soon, the battle tower's spirit announced the result, making Ajax heave a sigh of relief.
'Finally, I cleared this hall.'
Ajax didn't know whether the masked reaper didn't want to dodge the incoming spear or he was unable to dodge. It still remained a mystery for him.
'Maybe I will find the answer to this question in the next level.'
He was curious about the actions of the masked reaper and why this hall was different from the other halls.
Is it one of the abilities of the Masked reapers? Or did the battle tower's spirit set the hall differently?
'Next.'
Even though he had so many questions regarding the Masked Reaper's hall, Ajax proceeded to the next hall.
