Barellok calls the reinforcements
Barellok calls the reinforcements
Once he saw that the humans were gaining the upper hand, Barellok didn't hesitate anymore as he directly spoke into a talisman.
"Are you sure?"
From the other side, he heard two voices which seemed very excited about Barellok's words.
"Of course. Otherwise, why would I request you for help?"
Barellok gritted his teeth as he replied, "As long as you help in wrapping up this invasion, I will owe you one."
"There is no need to owe us anything. Just give us the map to the Demon god's inheritance grounds."
One of the voices asked Barellok without thinking much as though they were waiting for him to request their help.
"..."
Barellok remained silent as he looked at the humans who were killing all the demons as though they were nothing.
'Damn it…I know it won't be easy making a deal with these b*stards but at this rate, I will lose the war against the Purple stone world.'
Barellok clenched his fist as he was not willing to give away the map he painstakingly got to the other demon apostles.
"Think about it faster and give us a reply. At this rate, you will not only lose the war but you will also lose your life in the hands of the human cultivators."
"Haha…isn't that a given? The moment he took the mission from the Golden demon emperor, his life was directly linked with the war."
"Even if he was able to escape from the human cultivators, the Golden demon emperor would not let him live for his failure."
The three voices came out of the talisman in Barellok's hands one after another, making Barellok raise his brows.
'Damn these b*stards. So, they were eyeing the map of the demon god's inheritance grounds from the beginning.'
Barellok remembered how the three second-order demon apostles were eager to help him with the Purple stone world's invasion and why they willingly followed him to the normal demon world.
'So, that's the reason why they decided to stay in the normal demon world; instead of directly helping.'
Barellok clenched his fists in anger as he muttered in a low voice, 'They were just waiting for my request and as long as I agreed to their deal, they would jump into the portal along with their armies.'
Thinking about it made Barellok more and more as he could not control his anger anymore.
'But, they were not wrong. If I fail this mission, forget about the special reward, I will be killed by the Golden demon emperor.'
Even though Diglin, the golden demon emperor had promised him a great reward on his return, his failure would lead him to his death. It was an unspoken rule of the Golden demon emperor.
"So, what did you decide?"
"The more time you waste in deciding our deal, the more advantage the human cultivators will get."
"So, just say it. As long as you give it, we, three brothers, will help you safely wrap up the invasion on this lowly normal world."
The three second-order demon apostles, who were waiting on the other side of the portal had faces full of smiles as they knew Barellok would agree to their deal.
"Brother, what if he refuses the deal? We will lose the map to the demon god's inheritance grounds."
"Yes, brother. Even though Barellok didn't have many trump cards, he will have something out of his sleeve all the time."
The two second-order demon apostles worriedly asked their oldest brother with worried looks on their faces.
"Don't worry. If he didn't agree to our deal, then his chances of failing the mission are high."
However, the oldest one among the trio wasn't worried about anything as he replied with a confident look, "If the invasion fails, then as we all know, he would use something to escape from the Purple stone world. After that….you know what we have to do, right?"
"Haha…as expected of the big brother. He always thinks far ahead of us."
"Thanks to the big brother, we are able to become the second-order demon apostles without any problem. So, of course, this is nothing."
The two demons started praising their oldest brothers with faces full of smiles just like always.
"I will give you the map to the demon god's inheritance grounds."
Finally, after thinking for a few moments, Barellok decided to give up on the map as he agreed to their deal.
"Good."
"I know you will agree to it."
"What did I say, brothers? Barellok is someone who is intelligent enough to survive any predicament."
Hearing Barellok's words, the three golden demon apostles became excited as they praised Barellok for his intelligence.
'Intelligence, my a*s.'
As for Barellok, he scoffed at them before saying, "However, I will be entering the inheritance grounds with you and let's share the treasures from the inheritance ground equally."
"What?"
The three golden demon brothers were shocked by Barellok's sudden condition.
"If you don't agree to this condition, I don't mind dying here today."
When he said those words, Barellok was serious and the three golden demon brothers could sense the seriousness in Barellok's words.
"Fine. We agree."
After waiting for a few moments, the oldest demon among the trio agreed to Barellok's request.
"Good."
Barellok heaved a sigh of relief as he nodded his head and asked, "What are you waiting for? Come and join the fight then."
Even though Barellok said that he didn't mind dying today, he always wanted to become a demon emperor. So, without becoming a demon emperor, how could he die just like that?
Moreover, his only ticket to become a demon emperor was the demon god's inheritance ground. So, of course, he could not give it away to other demon apostles just like that.
After thinking, he came up with a plan that he would be sharing the map with those three demon apostles and in return, they have to help him with the invasion.
