Alan, the capital of demons, is a country consisting of three large islands.
Alan has built many magic network disruption devices in various places. These devices have largely blocked Alan's information exchange with the outside world.
In addition to densely populated urban areas, Alan also has large areas of mountainous areas.
Some buildings embedded in the mountains are like the mountain castles in Romania. These buildings are usually where demons live.
Although it is a country dominated by demons, the demons here who have never signed a contract with humans tend to avoid living in densely populated areas.
Accepting the invitation of Barbara and Tina, Mu Hua and Taibitha left the hotel and followed the two sisters to their residence.
The Demon Night Banquet does not force the invitees to stay in the hotel. Once the contract intention is confirmed and a simple registration is completed, the invitees can leave the hotel under the guidance of the demon.
The Mu Hua siblings confirmed the contract intention with the Barbara sister, and the four of them went to the Barbara sister's residence. At the same time, they also needed to make some preparations for entering the Court of Exile later.
Climbing up the relatively steep stairs, which have an angle of more than sixty degrees, you need to be clear-headed to climb. The house embedded in the middle of the mountain looks like both a castle and a cage.
The two women's home was very quiet.
The spacious villa even included a training ground carved out of the mountain, but apart from the two women, there was not even a maid in charge of cleaning the house.
"The demons are a clan of waiters, so keeping clean can be considered one of our assignments." Barbara explained to Mu Hua and Taibesha as they looked at the stone mountain villa curiously.
The villa seems to be carved directly out of the mountain, but every corner is very clean. It has a classical architectural style and is filled with modern furniture and appliances.
There were many green plants in the living room. Several sofas surrounded a long wooden table, allowing Mu Hua and Tabitha to sit down at will, while Barbara and Tina changed into home clothes.
"What did Helen say?" Looking around the room, Mu Hua asked Tabitha.
"She seems to want to wander around, so we should let her know when we are sure we are going to the Court of Exile, and meet her at the hotel when we leave," said Tabitha.
"Are you sure you want to sign a contract with them? Helen is also from Alan, so she doesn't have any candidates to recommend?" Mu Hua asked Taibesha.
"Except for immediate family members, demons usually don't have close connections with each other." While the two were talking, Tina, who was dressed in casual clothes, came out with tea and snacks.
"After all, before signing the contract, no one knows whether they will become an exile, and people usually don't interact with others casually. After signing the contract, life revolves around their own master."
"The Helen you are talking about is the demon who recommended you. I don't think she can give you any recommendations." Tina said to Mu Hua and Taibetha after placing snacks in front of them.
The low-cut off-shoulder dress reveals her well-proportioned calves and delicate ankles. She wears a pair of home slippers on her feet. The simple outfit brings out a gentle and soft beauty.
"Tsk~" A disgusted clicking of the tongue was heard, and Barbara, who had just changed her clothes, came into the living room.
A tank top and big shorts, big breasts, long legs and a perky butt.
Different from Tina's gentle appearance, Barbara's outfit was not too homely. Kicking off her slippers, Barbara sat down on the sofa next to Tabitha, looking at Tina with disdain.
"You're already flirting with men before the contract is signed?" Barbara said to Tina, who put snacks in front of her, as she sat cross-legged opposite Mu Hua.
"I'm just doing my duty." As if she didn't care about Barbara's provocation, Tina set the refreshments and sat gently beside Mu Hua.
"Ha, duty? Mu Hua, I have to remind you that Tina is good at assassination. I bet she has at least five knives hidden on her body now." Barbara said to Mu Hua.
Thin clothes, soft figure, as Barbara spoke, Mu Hua couldn't help but look at Tina beside him, and then looked at Barbara with a questioning look.
"Pa~pa~pa." Without waiting for Mu Hua to ask, Tina placed three daggers on the table.
"You lose, you only have three." When Tina said that, Mu Hua rubbed his eyes. Without the space prop, where did this girl hide the knives?
"Barbara, didn't you say that you are also good at close combat? And also at hand-to-hand assassination?" Seeing that the two women seemed to be about to quarrel again, Tabitha asked.
"Young demons generally prefer close combat. My weapon is a long-handled battle axe."
"If you want short weapons, I have this." Barbara raised her hand, and as she spoke, sharp claws emerged from her fingertips, like razor-sharp hooks.
"Clang~" The claws touching each other made a sound of metal friction.
"Swish~, I like this." Mu Hua whistled. This should be the ability that the Claw Demon bloodline gave her.
He really likes this. Originally, Mu Hua thought that there was no skill stone for this ability, but he had previously obtained "Aqualung" from the murloc. In comparison, there should be a skill stone that can allow him to obtain this kind of claw.
Unfortunately, the magic stone has never been produced, and I have not obtained any corpses of the Claw Demon. For now, I can only look at the claws that change the body structure with envy.
"Although my bloodline potential is a little lacking, if I want to grow, I can make up for it by absorbing the essence and blood of monsters. Since I can refine the essence and blood of monsters, I will be a very good follower."
Barbara seems to like to prove her worth to Tabitha. Perhaps beneath her proud appearance, she also hides her anxiety about the future.
Although Mu Hua had some feelings, it was a pity that he did not grow up in a harmonious and friendly environment.
His previous life was full of intrigues and schemes. If it were an outsider, he might be able to ignore and deal with it, but when it comes to people who may live with him for a long time in the future, he somewhat lacks understanding and magnanimity towards such pride.
Or it could be said that it is not that they are not generous, but that they dare not be generous. They are worried that the tail will get out of hand, that the other party will become too arrogant and unable to restrain themselves, which will make them look embarrassed and helpless.
The reason why losers are losers is that they lack the ability and confidence to deal with problems. Because they are worried that they cannot handle the problems, they often act from the perspective of avoiding problems. As a result, they naturally appear to be stingy and mean, and lack some grace and calmness.
The so-called grace, calmness, generosity, and heroic spirit are not just imaginary things, and they have nothing to do with one's own reality. Those things need time and environment to nurture. And Mu Hua, for the time being, probably hasn't left the loser sequence. . .
"The Claw Demon's abilities are quite good, and a grown-up Claw Demon is also very scary. Come, let me try your claws." Facing Barbara who was demonstrating her abilities, Mu Hua rolled up his sleeves and stretched out his arms.
"Are you sure?" Barbara frowned. She sensed a provocation from Mu Hua's smiling face.
"Of course, let's try it. You can be gentler." Shaking his arm, magic patterns faintly appeared on Mu Hua's forearm.
"Magic pattern, keratinized skin?" A strange look flashed in Barbara's eyes, and her fingers rested on Mu Hua's arm.
The claws changed from a gentle slide to a powerful hook. Without the obstruction of the bone shield, the sharp claws that came into direct contact with the skin ultimately only left a white mark on Mu Hua's forearm.
“Your skin...?” Barbara and Tina looked at each other in surprise.
The two sisters knew very well that Barbara's sharp claws could scrape off iron filings on magic metal, but they didn't expect that they couldn't even scratch a trace of oily skin on Mu Hua's body.
"How about keratinized skin using the Minotaur as a medium? It's not bad." Mu Hua smiled kindly, but Barbara's face did not look good.
Barbara obviously understood this as a very ungraceful suppression.
"Cousin!" Tabitha called Mu Hua in a blaming tone, then gave Barbara an apologetic look.
Barbara was stunned for a moment, gave Tabitha a sincere smile, then rolled her eyes at Mu Hua, hugged Tabitha, and ignored Mu Hua.
"Okay, Mr. Mu Hua, I think we should discuss the contract issue. I don't have any other requirements. As long as you don't restrict my search for DeWitt, I am willing to become your dependent." Mu Hua was turned down by Tabitha, and Tina beside him said at the right time.
"Does the family contract still need to be discussed?" Mu Hua questioned.
A dependent contract is just a nicer way of saying a slavery contract. After the contract is signed, it's still up to him to say whatever he wants. Mu Hua felt that Tina's so-called negotiation was a bit presumptuous.
"You are so arrogant." Tina seemed to have guessed Mu Hua's thoughts and didn't mind. She chuckled and said.
"As your dependent, you can decide how I survive, but you cannot completely control my death. So it's better for us to reach some agreements in advance." Tina explained.
"Well? Suicide? I should be able to restrict you from ending your own life." Mu Hua asked in a positive tone.
At the beginning, Monday was forced to contract a gem and it got stuck with a bug. This problem had already been verified on Monday.
"The demon clan has developed a self-annihilation technique based on their own situation. If we want, even if we become their followers, we can still decide our own death." Tina said in a low voice.
Looking at Barbara and then at Tina, Mu Hua frowned to confirm that Tina did not seem to be talking nonsense.
"Then you, um, or do you have any other requests?" After thinking for a while, Mu Hua asked Barbara and Tina.
"We will offer our loyalty to our master. You can have everything from us, but you cannot give us to others to play with."
"You can have my body, but no more than once a month, and no sexual abuse." Barbara and Tina looked at each other, and Tina's words were so blunt that they made people shudder.
"..." Mu Hua was silent. This guy even showed his sexual sadism. He suddenly felt that these demons were really pitiful.
"Well, if we meet the right partner, you can't restrict our marriage or hurt our partner," Barbara added.
Their requests were extremely simple, so simple that Mu Hua was a little speechless.
"Can I still sleep with you after you get married?" Mu Hua twitched his lips. It seemed strange to him that his relatives wanted to get married.
"Mu Hua!" Taibesha scolded sternly, seeming annoyed by Mu Hua's words.
Mu Hua really didn't have any bad intentions, he just simply felt that these requests were rather strange. It's not that Mu Hua didn't understand the unspoken rules of society that can only be understood but not expressed in words, but he still found it difficult to adapt to seeing them stated so openly.
"Of course, it's okay, Miss Tabitha. Since you have become his dependent, it is not realistic to impose strict restrictions in this regard. It may even lead to bad consequences." Tina smiled at Tabitha and turned to look at Mu Hua.
"But remember, it's only once a month at most, and you have to make sure it doesn't have any adverse effects on me." Tina emphasized to Mu Hua.
Even though he had seen a lot of weird things in his two lifetimes, Mu Hua's worldview was still a little shaky at this moment.
"If there are no problems, we can draw up an agreement. If you violate the agreement, we will appeal to the tribe's inspection team, and they may impose certain sanctions on you."
"Of course, Mr. Mu Hua, this is not aimed at you. These measures apply to all demons in Alan." Barbara explained.
As the topic unfolded, three pairs of eyes stared at Mu Hua, and Mu Hua felt awkward.
As expected, the more serious the negotiations are, the more they return to the essence. Negotiations that involve talking about psychological structures and economic indices only appear in TV series.
Mu Hua twitched his lips. This topic was really beyond his expectations. He seemed to be targeted. Mu Hua felt that it would be better not to discuss this issue in depth in front of the three girls.
What do you mean by once a month? What do you mean by no limits on finding a partner? Who are you looking down on?
If you make me angry, I will use your samples to create a bunch of magical beings, and let them be my bridegrooms every day, and I will let you squat by my bed and serve me!!!
Looking at the three girls who seemed to be in a state of unity against a common enemy, Mu Hua shouted in his heart. (End of this chapter)
