Reincarnated as the Demon King's Sonchapter 97: alright, bet

Aldred smiled. "Nobody. I am just a depressed little boy."

Everyone laughed when they heard that. There was no way the boy was a nobody. At a minimum, the boy had to be the son of an emperor.

Byron frowned. Who was this boy? He never heard about his existence before. But it was weird. The boy clearly had a Gold Rank strength, yet he never heard of him. He must be a nobody that luckily found something that increased his rank quickly.

"Get out of my way. That key is mine."

"We're here first," Aldred replied.

Byron furrowed his brows. "Is this the type of people you befriend, Maverick? Well, at least he has guts in him unlike you."

Maverick couldn't take it anymore and pulled out his blood blade.

But Aldred stepped forward. "Are you insulting my friend?"

"So what if I am? Do you have any problem with that?"

Aldred snorted. "Since you think you are so great, why don't we make a bet. If you can take the key and unlock your dice, I will be your slave."

Byron crossed his arms and smiled. "I am listening."

"But if you lose, I fuck your mom."

Maverick and everyone laughed. Mareona laughed so hard that she even started rolling on the ground.

Byron clenched his fist. "Are you playing with me?"

Aldred laughed. He shook his head. "I am joking. your mom is not enough. Maverick, does this person have a sister?"

Maverick nodded. "One big sister."

"Add that to the plate. I am hungry, you see."

Everyone laughed again. Mareona couldn't hold it anymore and struggled to breathe because of laughter.

Byron turned red in anger. How dare this boy mocked him! He pulled the sword from his back and was about to attack but he thought better of it.

"Fine then. But we will sign a blood contract to ensure everyone follows the rules."

Everyone stopped laughing.

"Are you serious?" Aldred asked. He didn't know what blood contract was, but it seemed like magic that made sure everyone followed it.

"If I lose you can even fuck my dad if you want to, but if I win, all of you, including Maverick will be my slave."

THE STAKES HAD BEEN RAISED.

Aldred hesitated. If this was only him, then he'd take it any day, but others were also at stake, so he couldn't decide by himself.

"What do you all think?"

"I trust your judgment, Aldred," Maverick said.

Aldred looked at everyone else and they all nodded at him, saying that they trust his decision.

"Back in the fort, we fight against an army almost every week, and now we have climbed the lower part of Mount Fargon. If we're afraid to take this bet, then are we really a soldier?"

"Isn't that right?"

"Yeah!" The soldier replied.

Mareona sighed. "I don't want you to fuck anyone's mom, but this guy pissed me off. And I don't think fucking his mom and sister are enough. We want his treasures and his followers' treasures as well. ALL OF IT."

Aldred scratched his head. "This is supposed to be a joke. Why has it come to this."

Byron snorted. "You don't joke about someone's mom. Now either do the blood contract or get the fuck out of my way."

Aldred looked at him like he was an idiot. 'This guy just now talked about Maverick's sister, and even gave an example of how he'd do her in bed. What a hypocrite!'

He sighed. "Fine. How do we do the contract?"

Byron approached him and took his hand.

"Remember to use the contract for humans," Maverick said.

"I know." Byron released his hand and then bit his own hand. "Give me your blood."

Aldred bit his little thumb and showed the blood coming out to Byron. "Now what."

"Now press your thumb against my palm."

Aldred did, and then he felt some sort of energy rushing through him.

"Do all of you agree to sign this contract?" Byron asked.

Bartrem and the soldiers nodded. They were not afraid of taking risks, if that was the case, they wouldn't become soldiers in the first place. Signing this contract was no different than signing in to join the military.

They go to the battlefield and risk their life. But this time, if they won, they'd earn some treasures while the military only gave five coins per month.

So they didn't think this was a loss.

After a few seconds, blood mist came out of their hands and then entered through Mary and the others.

Byron smiled. Even though he signed the blood contract, it only worked for vampires. If the other party wasn't a vampire, he did not have to follow anything written on the contract. But the other party still has to follow it. This was a one-sided contract that no one would agree to, and he loved every moment he tricked people to sign it.

Maverick wouldn't know he used this type of contract because he had learned how to fake it.

He grinned as he stared at the boy. 'What a fool. You think I would sign a blood contract with a stinking boy like you?!'

Maverick saw nothing was wrong, but he got something to worry about. Byron was a powerful warrior. Even with his blood blade, he might not have the chance to defeat the man.

"Now get out of my way. You think I don't know that these two statues can attack me? I did my study before I went on this journey. That's why I am late."

Aldred crossed his arms and smiled.

"You're not worried, Aldred?" Maverick asked.

"Why should I be worried?"

"If he wins, we'd all be slaves."

"You think about the consequence too much," Aldred said. "The worst that can happen is we all will die." He laughed.

Maverick did not laugh and looked at Byron as he approached the cylinder stand.

Just like earlier, the statues stared at him as he was about to take the key. Just as his hand would like to touch the key, the statues swung their sword.

"Humph! A pile of rock is nothing against my power." Byron leaped at one of the statues.

His fist moved with a powerful aura that pressured the air around it. It created a powerful shock wave when it hit the chest of the stone knight, but the statue didn't even budge before grabbing him and slamming him to the ground.

Aldred smiled and shouted: "And we have a winner!"
