Chapter 284 - 283. Cursed (2)
I returned to the inn with the conversation and weight of the decision hanging heavily on me. The demon had struck a deal with me, if I hand myself to him then he would undo the curse and if I didn’t then he would kill the child and also destroy the kingdom.
I knew the answer to this was simple I could sacrifice the child and kill the threat right away but he knew I wouldn’t let the child be harmed that’s why he was playing around.
He was also the one who made the curse worse for both the child and Marvoni.
"Well, I knew you had both of them, I couldn’t risk the Pope telling you the truth and the Lesser Dragon was a warning." The demon in Zale had grinned and shrugged nonchalantly making it hard for me to not rip him apart right then and there.
"You were also the one who came in the Temple frequently,"
"In your room? Yes, I wanted to see what you were up to."
I grabbed a chair and sat down looking at him as he smiled at me, despite the malice in his void like presence, I knew he wouldn’t do anything to me right now. Even if he were to try it would be useless.
"You were also the one who tried to kill me at Lozar, right?" I asked and he nodded.
"Yes, I thought I’d crush you like a bug but you got out," he said.
"Then I guess you’re also the one who were responsible for the chaos that was caused in those towns because of the monsters."
He nodded again with a smile, "Yes, it was fun, but it would have been more fun if you hadn’t interfered, I was angry, you know? I wanted to kill you right away but then again, I knew you would soon fall into my trap that’s why I came here."
