Chapter 202: Ride the Dust
At this moment, the heart of Turner, a demon worshipper, was full of joy.
Alban’s attitude towards devil worshippers had always been extremely strict, and capital punishment was often imposed. However, taking into account the special abilities of some demons, there were still many people who weren’t as firm in their faith and would secretly cooperate with subordinate and intermediate level demons. They use abyssal magic to manage farms and dispose of waste and other unmotivating aspects, or do serious work like guarding against thieves, and would keep demons under their beds as pets.
Turner had never looked down on this group of people. He firmly believed that demons are called demons for a reason.
They were tools.
Since people could smear poison on their blades, it wasn’t a big deal using demons. It was nothing more than old diehards of the Laddism Church who insisted on this for the sake of bullshit doctrines and stable rule. What they really wanted was just the silver coins that represent piety in the pockets of their believers.
People were truly stupid. The upper echelons of various countries are clamoring not to cooperate with demons, while they held the strongest source of abyssal magic, jade bombs, in their own hands.
Abyssal magic was unique in effect of destructions and damage. It consumed the same power and often gains much better effects than the same surface magic. The wounds they cause were difficult to heal and they were extremely difficult to deal with in battle. There was no weapon more suitable for thugs than this.
Since there was a shortcut, only fools wouldn’t take it. There are so many who would agree only in face but disagree deep down. As a notorious bandit, Turner didn’t think he would be trouble by the so-called “morality”.
Well, those idiots who were using demons to diligently do stupid things had no chance. In order to eradicate the ungrateful rebels, the emperor of Alban issued a temporary amnesty order allowing “people with special skills” to join the army. Dissolving slop with abyssal magic wasn’t considered a combat skill. What the army clearly wanted was people who could “really use” abyssal magic.
