Chapter 2. Uhh Mm Whats that? Scary

2.5 Their Story

[2]Nermia El Ria: What the

I moved to the summoning circle prepared by the instructor.

Honestly

Im a bit scared. Demon Can I summon something that gets rarely summoned even in the empire? Me, a child whos a little older than 10 years old?

There were all kinds of thoughts in my head, but there was still no contact from the family. Ive been trying to search rumors, but I got nothing.

And I was unable to disobey the instructor. If that accursed club appeared again

Gulp.

When I threw out the thought about the club with a shiver, I was able to see my surroundings. In the forest, there was a blood-red magic circle drawn on a wooden floor. And the instructor lifted the floor?

W, what is this?

There was a stone plate beneath the floor. And there was an ancient incantation written on it. The instructor did not even glance at me as he responded.

As I said before, selling your soul is a total scam.

Right

Just where was he going with this? The instructor soon answered that with a shocking response.

That would mean scams are possible when it comes to contracts if I were to put it simply, us humans can scam demons as well.

N, no way.

That was impossible. Demons and the demon race dont get classified differently for nothing. Demons are beings that rival gods. It would be impossible to fool them.

Right, it seems impossible. Theres no way to scam a demon. At least, theres no way to scam them by ourselves.

We do not scam them. The demon will scam itself for us.

I was only able to realize what that meant later.

2.5 Their Story

[2.5]The Great Demons Story: What the

A being that ends worlds.

The master of giants that even gods fear.

The lord of Muspelheim, Sutr.

That was who I was.

And I was

Bored.

Really bored. If I move, wars begin. Because of that, all sorts of things try to restrict me. Since my existence itself spells destruction, I cant move unless a human forms a contract with me.

But just who would make a contract with me No, is there even a way to contact me at this point?

Why do I know this? Because I heard humans destroyed all methods to contact Great Demons like me for being to powerful!

Because of that, Im bored!

I might even take just half a soul to lend my strength!

Was it because of my desperation?

T, this is?!

A contact from a summoning circle Its been 2000 years!

I quickly accepted the summon, struck the ground with my hand and shouted.

Puhahaha! Are you the ones who summoned me, the master of Muspelheim?

And I looked at the man and the child who seemed to have summoned me. Mm the man seems to not have summoned me. No, he wouldnt even be able to its almost like the mana of this world refuses to near his soul.

The child nodded at me. And.

Will you form a contract with me?

Form a contract? Of course!

Yes, I will! But, the cost will be!

Your soul, of course! The moment I was about to say that, the man smiled evilly, and opened his mouth.

Nothing.

What the f the hell?
