I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon - Chapter 261

Situ He looked at the Blood River Overlord sitting opposite him.

He smiled and nodded.

Even when two countries were at war, they did not kill their envoys.

Situ He was still a gentleman while facing the foreign strong being.

In the Federal Empire, dignity was an important thing.

Alucard raised his head and looked at Situ He, then at the girl next to Situ He.

The blood in the girl’s body was sweet and lively.

Her blood told him that the girl was at most eighteen years old!

Incredibly young!

And…

Extremely young that she didn’t know how to hide her psionic energy at all.

Her psionic energy was very weak.

She was at most only a second lieutenant.

“Can even a second lieutenant come to such a place?” Alucard frowned.

He felt the danger and terror of this place.

Those terrifying existences were almost everywhere.

Their will was filled under the floor and in the wallpaper. In the cracks of the ceiling.

Alucard felt fear just by feeling it.

But that girl, that weak girl.

She didn’t seem to experience anything unusual.

She showed a relaxed look.

“Will the monsters in this bookstore treat others differently according to their strength?” Alucard thought.

But he immediately denied the thought.

Because it was impossible!

In the eyes of humans, would there be a difference between an ant that could lift a grain of rice and an ant that could only lift a piece of debris?

No!

So, he asked with a smile, “Miss, how do you feel?”

… ..

Tian Ling’er raised her head and looked at the foreigner sitting opposite her.

Then she looked at her uncle.

Situ He nodded slightly.

Tian Ling’er answered, “I feel fine…”

That was the truth!

In Tian Ling’er’s eyes, the bookstore in the fog was a mysterious bookstore hidden in a fog.

The store seemed to be shrouded in a layer of obscure spiritual light.

The layer of spiritual light lingered around many things.

It made these things look like they were blurred and could not be seen clearly.

It was as if she was looking at the things behind the bronze mirror through a bronze mirror.

She could only see a rough outline.

Other than that, she did not feel anything else.

Alucard listened and nodded.

Situ He also nodded slightly.

That was an important piece of information!

That might reveal some real information!

Humans would not treat two ants differently.

But what if one of the ants had patterns on its body?

Or maybe the ant was a rare species?

With that thought in mind, both of them began to ponder.

At this time, the sound of footsteps came from behind.

Situ He and Alucard turned their heads at the same time. They saw the mysterious bookstore owner, humming an unknown tune, walking over with light steps.

In his hand was a card that seemed to be covered in a faint layer of spiritual light.

Alucard suddenly lowered his head and looked at the card in his hand.

He gulped.

Blood River Overlord finally knew that he was indeed treated differently here!

But what was the reason?

He looked at the little girl sitting opposite him.

Blood River Overlord was puzzled.

Situ He vaguely guessed something.

He looked at the extremely dangerous card in the hand of Blood River Overlord opposite him.

Then he looked at his niece, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

“As expected… that Major Li is indeed a Koi!”

He mentioned that his niece was going to apply for the exam in the Major’s previous school just to make him feel that they were closely related.

… ..

“Customer…” Ling Pingan took the exercise book in his hand and handed it to the little girl. “Take a look. Is it suitable for your requirements?”

Tian Ling’er took the card.

It was slightly warm and cool in her hand, like a piece of good jade.

It was heavy in her hand and had a lot of weight. It had an obvious metallic texture.

She lowered her head and looked at the card.

Layers of green spiritual light surrounded the card, forming a ring-shaped halo.

Vaguely, Tian Ling’er heard an inexplicable murmur.

In the murmur, she understood the purpose of the card.

She had to put it under her pillow every night when she goes to bed.

When she fell asleep, she would be guided by the card into her dream and begin training.

“Book in the Pillow!” A term inexplicably popped up in Tian Ling’er’s mind.

It was said that the ancient immortals would write such a strange book and give it to their disciples to protect them.

Tian Ling’er had always thought that it was just a legend.

However, she did not expect that she would be lucky enough to get a copy today.

That made her excited immediately, and her little face began to blush.

She took a deep breath and looked at the mysterious owner of the bookstore in disbelief.

How could the book of Immortals be so ordinary?

Even if she was sold, she would not be able to afford such a precious treasure!

Thus, she looked at her uncle nervously.

Situ He looked at Tian Ling’er. He had long been prepared. Before he came, Situ He had already come to his senses.

He smiled and took out his phone, asking, “Sir, how much is it?”

Alucard immediately raised his head.

He nervously held the card in his hand and looked at the phone that Situ He took out.

“Money?”

“Can the books here be bought with money?”

The heart of the Blood River Overlord thumped.

If money could be used to solve the problem…

Then, Alucard swore that he would buy out the bookstore!

In the past two hundred years, although the power of Britannia was declining day by day.

The pearls and diamonds on the Queen’s crown fell all over the ground.

But the heritage of the old powerful country was still unimaginable.

Not to mention other things, just the gold reserves of Duke Rhein alone were as much as a thousand tons!

Not only could it fill every inch of space in this bookstore, but it might also even be able to change the roads outside into gold bricks!

So, the price was not a problem.

As long as the price was stated, no matter what the price was.

He would not bargain!

But…

Could it be bought with money?

Alucard was not confident.

Because if it was a problem that could be solved with money, then why did the country not buy this place out?

… … ..

When Ling Pingan heard the inquiry, he immediately laughed.

He said, “Customer, this exercise book is from many years ago…”

“You can give me 10 yuan for it…”

That exercise book was left behind when Ling Pingan’s aunt applied for the ancient culture major at Yaodu University.

It had been left in the dust under the bookshelf for seven or eight years.

Because of the protective film, it looked new.

But in reality, it was an old book that was being kept under the bookshelf.

So, 10 yuan was its normal price.

It was very reasonable!

Of course, Ling Pingan knew that even if he offered thirty or forty yuan, the other party would still accept it.

But…

In business, honesty was the priority!

So, as he spoke, he walked behind the counter and took out the QR code that he hadn’t taken out for a long time from the drawer. He asked, “You’re paying by mobile pay, right?”

“Yes!” Situ He’s hands trembled. He opened the app on his phone and walked over.

Alucard stared at it closely and carefully.

He saw that the mysterious owner of the bookstore took out a card that was stained with countless blood and filled with countless terrifying howls from the drawer.

The general of the Blackguard held his phone and walked in front of him. He scanned it.

Beep.

The spiritual light of the general of the Blackguard dimmed a lot.

Alucard gulped…

“Soul…”

“He paid with his soul!”

“The soul of a general of the Blackguard…”

“If I’m not mistaken, at least one-tenth of his soul was taken away!”

In other words, the soul of this powerful major-general of the Blackguard, who was about to break through, was only worth 100 yuan!

In other words, his soul was probably only worth about two hundred dollars…

At that moment, Alucard had the thought of throwing away the card in his hand and immediately running away.

However, as soon as that thought appeared in his mind, the card in his hand secreted some kind of substance that bound his hands.

Not only that, but Alucard also discovered in horror that his original body was also bound by the same strength.

He finally knew how Duke Ivy had fallen.

The strength that ignored all rules and directly located through the soul and bloodline.

It was simply beyond imagination!

Alucard felt a will in the dark, warning him.

And that was the last warning.

He had no choice but to stand up and ask, “Sir, how much is my book?”

The owner turned his head. The fire in his eyes was as dazzling as the sun.

“Customer… your exercise book is slightly more expensive…”

He held the extremely terrifying card and said, “After the discount, it’s almost sixty-five yuan…”

“I’ll erase the change for you…”

“You just need to pay sixty yuan…”

“Do you prefer to pay by cash or mobile pay?” He asked. The fire in his eyes rose gently, and firework in his lenses.

Alucard listened, and his body began to tremble.

Because he had discovered a terrible thing.

That was, the words of the mysterious bookstore owner were being distorted.

The characters entered his ears and eyes, tracing back to his original body through the blood essence in his body.

Then, they reverberated in the soul of his original body.

These words, every word was normal and even sounded normal.

But…

Alucard could feel that these distorted words contained another meaning.

It was just that his soul was too weak, and his strength was too weak.

So it was impossible to interpret it.

He could only vaguely know that he was asking him to make a choice.

Was he going to pay with his soul?

The ghost supreme-ruler with huge sharp horns appeared quietly in the shadows.

The Dim Hades appeared faintly under his huge body.

Once he chose to pay with his soul, then…

It was obvious that Alucard understood that he was controlled by that terrifying ghost supreme-ruler from then on.

From then on, life and death were no longer up to him.

That was a stricter control than when he was forced by Van Helsing to sign the master-slave contract!

The master-slave contract only restricted him from obeying Van Helsing’s descendants. If he violated the contract, he would have to pay the price.

And once his soul fell into the hands of that Ghost supreme-ruler, he would be like a fish on a chopping board waiting to be slaughtered!

He could do whatever he wanted to his soul.

Whether he stuffed it into a magical artifact or treated it as a consumable.

It was all within his thoughts.

Then do you want to use your lifespan?

Alucard raised his head. He was just about to be happy when the river of blood immediately issued a warning.

The lifespan here was not the lifespan of a mortal!

It was the length of the river of blood!

If he agreed, the entire river of blood might be sucked dry in an instant!

So, Alucard knew that he only had one choice, payment with his soul!

Because if he used his lifespan to pay, he would die instantly!

There was no other way. Alucard could only sigh, take out his phone, and nervously walk in front of the mysterious bookstore owner. He scanned it.

There was a beep.

Alucard saw the ghost supreme-ruler with sharp horns. He stretched out his terrifying hand that was covered in blood and grabbed his soul. Then, he took a third of his soul!

“My Soul… is not even worth 200 dollars…” Alucard took a deep breath.

That made him tremble.

That meant that in the eyes of the owner of the bookstore, the major-general of the blackguard was only slightly weaker than him.

Putting away his phone, Alucard took a deep breath.

He did not dare to stay here any longer.

He quickly said, “I won’t bother you anymore…”

Ling Pingan looked at the notification on his phone and nodded happily. “Customer, take care…”

“If you need anything next time, please come again…”

Alucard gulped and replied with a smile that was more like crying, “Of course!”

He held the card in his hand.

He felt the terrifying strength coming from the card.

So, the Blood River Overlord understood that as long as he could come back alive.

Then, he could break the current shackles.

He could truly refine the blood river into his own!

At that time, even the contract of Van Helsing would no longer be able to bind him.

Because he would become a true supreme-ruler!

He would become the Master of Blood and betrayal!

So…

He walked to the door and turned back to look at the bookstore.

That was the most terrifying place…

There were countless terrifying existences hidden in this bookstore. He was as small and fragile as a bug in the bookstore.

If he said one wrong word, if he didn’t pay attention to one thing, he would immediately be smashed into pieces.

But it was also heaven!

Strength, authority…

As long as he could pay the price, then he could get it all!

Just like the card in his hand.

It was certainly dangerous.

But…

Alucard knew that if those old things in Land of Qin found out about it…

Not to mention one-third of the soul.

They were even willing to give up everything in exchange for such a chance!

A chance to be reborn and break the shackles!

Alucard raised his head and looked at the fog in front of him.

Suddenly, he thought of something.

How should he get out?

He knew that the fog could not be passed through directly.

He could feel the danger of this fog.

Fortunately, at this time, the door opened.

The major-general of the Blackguard with the little girl walked out.

He was holding a flashlight.

The flashlight was turned on and shone on the fog.

The road ahead was instantly safe, and the things that made Alucard’s hair stand on end quietly moved away.

So…

The flashlight was a safety certificate?

‘But why wasn’t I given with one?’

Alucard was jealous again.

He had no choice but to be shameless and approach them. “Sir, do you mind if I go with you?”

Situ He glanced at Alucard and nodded. “Sure!”

To a certain extent, the Blood River Overlord was the enemy of the Federal Empire.

But…

In this world, besides the federal empire itself, was there any other friend that could be trusted?

International relations were complicated.

Today’s friend might not be tomorrow’s enemy.

And today’s enemy might not be a friend that could be cooperated with.

Situ He had known this long ago.

Moreover…

The United Kingdom of Britannia and the Federal Empire had always been on different paths.

But there was one thing that was the same.

That thing was the territorial integrity and sovereignty of the countries in the Land of Qin must be protected and respected!

Thus, the two of them walked side by side into the fog.

Tian Ling’er followed closely behind.

In the fog, the major-general of the Federal Empire’s Blackguard and the Blood River overlord of Britannia were like long-time friends, laughing and joking as they walked.

That made Tian Ling’er dumbstruck.

The world of adults was indeed complicated!

..

Ling Pingan watched as the two groups of customers slowly disappeared into the fog.

He pulled down the shutter and placed the kitten Bastet on the towel.

He picked up his phone and looked at the balance.

The young bookstore owner whistled.

“If I could have this kind of business every day…”

Three books had been sold today. Although one was given out as a gift, in the future, he could have some of the person’s barbeque for free…

The remaining two orders were credited to 60 yuan.

Today’s utility bills could be considered a profit!

If he could earn utility bills every day in the future…

The young bookstore owner could not help but smile happily.

Although he knew that it was impossible.

It did not stop him from being happy!
