205 Zaglanath
As the handsome man was making Paulin an official summoner, Ajax looked at them for a moment before sitting cross-legged and checked his recently achieved level 2 spear dao.
'Ding,
Weapon Dao:- Spear Dao (level 2)
Type:-?Tornado
Effect:- 1) a 30 percent increase in piercing power with all spear type attacks.
2) A 10 percent chance to stun an enemy for 3 seconds when the host pierces with a spear.
Description:- Whenever the host uses a spear, it will gain a tornado effect, and the piercing power of that spear will increase by 30 percent.
"Huh? An additional effect?"
Ajax expected the piercing power of spear attacks would be increased with its level, but he didn't expect that it would also give him an additional effect.
'Although it's only 10 percent chance to stun, it's better than not having any effect,' Ajax thought that the effect was not too powerful nor too weak.
'System, Spear soul,' after checking his spear dao, he asked the system about Spear soul.
Soon a holographic screen appeared in front of him.
'Ding,
Item name:- Spear soul (Heaven's destroyer spear)
Grade:- At least legendary
Use:- It can be combined with any strong spear.
Note: If the spear is not strong enough to withhold the spear soul's power, the weak spear will be destroyed.
"Demon man, since our rewards were given can you explain to us about this cave?" Ajax asked, turning his face to the handsome man.
"Hm," he nodded his head and started his explanation, "This is one of many fated trial grounds that, I, Zaglanath created to spread the lost inheritances of humans back to the fated humans."
"Huh?" Ajax and Paulin looked at the Demon man and surprised for a moment before Ajax asked, "Why are you helping humans?"
Ajax didn't understand why a demon was helping humans instead of helping his own kin. So he asked quickly.
"Keke," the handsome man revealed his ghostly smile before saying, "It's because I am a half-human and half-demon. But I was grown in human society by my mother side who protected me until her last breath," the initial ghostly laugh vanished, and sadness appeared in his voice when he said about her mother.
His eyes moistened a little, but he quickly controlled his emotions.
"Before she died I made a promise that I will help humans and not turn to the demon side," The handsome said, suppressing his earlier emotions.
Ajax and Paulin looked at the handsome man who called himself 'Zaglanath' with awe.
Even though Zaglanath said only a few words, they could understand what he went through in his childhood.
It was not an easy thing for a demon to survive in the human world.
They could also assume what his mother went through to raise him.
'It must be very hard for her, right?' Ajax thought in his head when he thought about Zaglanath's mother.
In the history of the Zrochester Province, there were many cases where demons invade some of the least powerful towns and wreak havoc. Killing men from those towns and impregnating the women with their seed was happened various times.
Whenever it happened, those women who were impregnated would die due to the insufficient energy in their bodies for the young ones in them to grow. While some women live.
Among those who come out of their womb, 99 percent would be killed with hatred, and the remaining one percent were like Zaglanath's mother, who protected and made him into a real human.
So, both Ajax and Paulin developed a lot of respect for that woman.
"Yes, it's very difficult for her," Zaglanath said with a sigh.
Ajax was shocked at Zaglanath's words because Zaglanath replied to what he thought in his head.
"After giving birth to me, she started growing weaker day by day. After a few years, it reached the point where she can't even walk on her own," Zaglanath sighed and remembered his hazy childhood memories, but he could still remember some of them very clearly.
