The Great Demon Summoning Technique, as its name suggested, was used to summon powerful demons.
By setting up the summoning ritual and placing offerings that would tempt demons, one could bring demons to the human world.
This was an extremely dangerous magical spell, because you never knew which demon would answer your call.
"Demon Lord, do you really want to do this? Some demons might hide their strength in order to sign a contract with you... If a Demon Lord or even a Demon Duke is summoned, I won't be able to handle it." Vinarida watched Su Ze drawing a pentagram on the ground, repeatedly admonishing him.
Summoning demons itself was a very random matter, and the Great Demon Summoning Technique allowed for a contract to be signed during the summoning process, settling a specific matter.
However, this contract was not one hundred percent foolproof.
For example, Demon Lords had the ability to break contracts.
"Don't demons decide whether to answer the call based on the quality of the sacrifice? We can try with some low-level sacrifices first; that way, the summoned demons shouldn't be too strong." Su Ze stood up, looked at the array he had drawn, and clapped his hands, saying.
The array in front of him was in the shape of a goat-headed pentagram, divided into six rings, each symbolizing a Demon God.
"But what if a Demon Lord, on a whim, wants to come to the human world…" Vinarida's words were unfinished, but her meaning was already clear.
"Heh, I have a sense of proportion," Su Ze smiled, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.
Demon Lords were beings capable of casting forbidden spells.
He wasn't particularly keen on provoking them right now.
And he didn't think his first summon would bring forth a Demon Lord.
There were seven ranks within the demon hierarchy.
Imp, Lesser Demon, Mid-level Demon, Greater Demon, Great Demon, Demon Lord, Demon Duke, Demon Prince, Demon God.
Demon Gods were the pinnacle of all supernatural beings, not exclusively demons.
According to records, there were three Demon Gods belonging to the demon race: Lilith, Mother of All Desires; Lucifer, Angel of Demons; and Satan, King of Seven Sins.
The reason demons were so powerful and renowned throughout the realms was largely due to these three Demon Gods.
And Demon Lords were the absolute high-ranking members of the demon race; it was rare for even one Demon Lord to be born among ten thousand demons, making them extremely scarce.
"Your subordinate understands." Vinarida did not try to dissuade him further, but instead retreated to the side, preparing to deal with any demonic backlash.
Tina Hiiragi also moved a distance away, but she was not as serious as Vinarida; her expression was somewhat excited.
She had never seen a demon, a creature of legend.
It was said that monsters were mere trash in front of them, able to be slapped to death, but she didn't know if it was true or not.
"Vinarida, what do you think is the Demon Lord's purpose in summoning a demon?" she asked in a low voice, floating beside Vinarida.
"Of course, it's to enhance Elnord Meta's combat power and conquer the world!" Vinarida replied without hesitation.
Ah, this...
Tina Hiiragi's expression was bewildered, and she said in an extremely low voice, "The Demon Lord shouldn't be that childish, right?"
Conquering the world sounded like something a kindergarten child would say.
Vinarida stared at Tina Hiiragi for two seconds, making her feel uneasy, before saying, "The Demon Lord is destined to conquer the world, and this chaotic world also needs a conqueror. Don't think about protecting those Magical Girls; under the Demon Lord's command, they will all turn to dust!"
Tina Hiiragi felt as if she had been struck by a heavy blow.
The thought of Magical Girls being casually annihilated by Su Ze sent a pang of pain through her heart, accompanied by a strange thrill.
Magical Girls falling into the Demon Lord's hands, their fate should be quite miserable, right?!
Would they be humiliated?
Would they be double-penetrated, or even triple-penetrated?!
"No, no, why am I having these thoughts!"
Tina Hiiragi was startled by the thoughts that surfaced in her mind.
She was definitely not such an evil person!
"All you can do is prevent the Demon Lord from giving the order..." Vinarida began to instill bad ideas in Tina Hiiragi again.
Only by serving the Demon Lord well could she have a say with the Demon Lord and thus protect the Magical Girls...
"Tell me, do you have the determination to protect the Magical Girls, Maple Sugar!" Vinarida provoked.
Tina Hiiragi's eyes instantly became firm, and she replied, "I do!"
Then, she suddenly froze.
"Why do you want me to protect the Magical Girls? Aren't we an evil organization?"
Upon hearing this, Vinarida felt no psychological pressure about lying, and replied without a blush or pant, "Because of you, you like Magical Girls, don't you—"
Their conversation abruptly ceased.
Because the array Su Ze had drawn was emitting a terrifying purple light.
"This is the aura of a Great Demon!"
Vinarida looked at the location of the array, her yellow pupils contracting violently.
A Great Demon was a powerful demon second only to a Demon Lord, with a noble status.
A black vortex appeared in the center of the summoning array, and an ugly, foul-smelling demon slowly rose from it.
It was like a rotting mountain of flesh, surrounded by flies, with yellowish-green fluid oozing from its decaying body.
"Human, I am very satisfied with the sacrifice you gave me." Its voice was like thunder, its crimson eyes fixed on Su Ze, and it opened its mouth to inhale, and the blood floating in the air fell into its mouth.
Su Ze's sacrifice was his blood, which contained magicules and vitality.
"Name: Gaia Tip."
Entry: Great Demon, Abomination Butcher, Greed
Psychology: This summoning circle leads to the Human Realm, but why is the surrounding aura so strange… Is it in an alternate dimension?
Desire Value: High
Danger Level: High
Introduction: A Great Demon from Demon City, belonging to the "Naberius Demon Army", holding the rank of Great Commander. Beware of its corrupting power.
Danger level high?
That's a certain challenge.
Su Ze tilted his head, sizing up the astonishingly dimensional Demon.
From Gaia's Malice +699
"Magician, offer your loyalty, and I shall grant you boundless knowledge and wealth." Gaia looked down at Su Ze, thick liquid constantly oozing from his millstone-sized mouth as it opened and closed, like a miniature waterfall.
"Loyalty?" Su Ze sneered, "Let's sign a contract. We should be in a cooperative relationship."
A contract scroll floated between him and Gaia.
This had automatically appeared after Gaia emerged.
If he didn't sign the contract, he would be sent back to the Demon Realm.
And Su Ze's sacrifice would have been for naught.
The Great Demon Summoning Technique only gave Su Ze a chance to meet a Demon, and a highly binding contract scroll.
This was already quite good, after all, the summoned object was a Demon.
Gaia was clearly unwilling to return to the Demon Realm just like that, and angrily said, "You dare treat me like this!"
His mountain of flesh-like body trembled violently, trying to move, but he was firmly bound in place by the magic circle.
"It seems you don't intend to sign the contract!" Su Ze grinned sinisterly, sinking his waist and elbows, his contained demonic energy radiating outwards like swirling black flames.
"Corrupting Evil Light!"
Gaia made a decisive move, waving his hand and unleashing a green evil light.
As long as Su Ze died, the magic circle would collapse on its own.
Attacking the summoner in violation of the rules would certainly incur the magic circle's disciplinary punishment, but if he could kill Su Ze before that, it would be worth it!
However, the anticipated disciplinary punishment did not descend!
Gaia saw the summoning circle under his feet disintegrating and was immediately overjoyed.
That foolish summoner actually dispelled the summoning circle himself!
"Look down!"
The human's cold voice entered his ears, and Gaia looked down, discovering that Su Ze had appeared right beneath his feet!
Boundless, terrifying demonic power was gathering in his right fist, like a black sun, and the surging air currents obstructed his vision!
A chilling sense of death suddenly rose from the depths of Gaia's heart!
