Evil Dragon: The young dragon I picked up keeps planning on becoming an empress Chapter 34 The Grim Reaper Who Wants to Renew the Contract w

Daring to yell and recklessly calling the Evil Dragon ugly suggests that the relationship between the Hell Grim Reaper and the Evil Dragon seems quite good....

Right, they've been cooperating for nearly a thousand years, so it's normal for them to have developed a deep friendship in such a long ti.

Speaking of which, can the Hell Grim Reaper appear during the day?

In the legends... aren't Grim Reapers only supposed to appear at night?

Listen, look, what is the Hell Grim Reaper doing with the Evil Dragon for....?

"Eh? Lance.... why did the Hell Grim Reaper's projection disappear?"

"I turned it off. He calls ugly and still expects to listen to him talk, the audacity of that little Grim Reaper.... how ridiculous."

Evil Dragon Lance felt he wasn't too bad looking. Even if he wasn't the handsost Black Dragon in the world, with his looks... at least he would rank in the top ten among the Evil Dragons and the Black Dragons....

The Grim Reaper's Scythe floating in the air started emitting black smoke again as the ended projection call was re-initiated.

The figure of Death God Solomon appeared in the projection.

"Lance, how dare you switch off the projection call I started!!! You...."

The figure of Death God Solomon disappeared from the projection call again....

The Evil Dragon had turned off the projection call once more.

Death God Solomon was domineering.

Evil Dragon Lance was arrogant and unruly.

To not even give face to the Grim Reaper was suprely arrogant.

The Young Dragon felt envious; she wished she could be as arrogant as the Evil Dragon soday.

Before long, the figure of Death God Solomon appeared again on the scythe.

"Don't switch it off, don't switch it off, don't... Lance, my dear Lance, I admit that I raised my voice just a tad....

Stop!!! Won't an apology do? I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said you turned into an ugly dragon.... You look as good as a dragon as you do as a person, right? Can we talk calmly and peacefully now?"

"!!!"

Lucia, lying on the large rock, was flabbergasted. She thought Solomon was a domineering Hell Grim Reaper... only to find he was... he was... considerably more... "gentle" as a Grim Reaper...

Facing such an Evil Dragon, who was no longer an apprentice Grim Reaper... His attitude was remarkably good.

Unbelievable.

In her mind, Grim Reapers were cold, sparse in words, and fiercely ghostly.

Death God Solomon... might only show such affinity when facing the Evil Dragon.

"At the very least I'm your boss, can you show so respect? Your Young Dragon is watching... give so face.

"Do you have the mory of a fish? I resigned from the position of apprentice Grim Reaper last night, and you agreed. So... you are no longer my boss."

"I ca to you last night to talk about this. I've renewed your contract, you're still bound by a contract with the Hell Grim Reaper as an 'apprentice Grim Reaper'.

The fact that your Grim Reaper's Scythe didn't return to Hell is proof that our contract still exists. Lance, the strongest 'apprentice Grim Reaper' under my command, I have a bounty mission that I need your help with."

"???"

Death God Solomon had renewed his 'apprentice Grim Reaper' contract?

No wonder he could still sense the 'apprentice Grim Reaper' contract signed with Hell this morning.

"Let's not talk about the bounty mission for now. If I rember correctly, you dissolved my 'apprentice Grim Reaper' contract last night, and imdiately afterwards, you must have signed with a few excellent 'apprentice Grim Reapers,' right?"

"Just thinking about that makes angry. The talented necromancers I had my eye on for training and contracts were poached by other Grim Reapers. The two who weren't poached... did sign the 'apprentice Grim Reaper' contract with ...

Then... to make sure they could achieve so results quickly, I issued them a few bounty missions last night... only to see them in Hell not much later...."

They hadn't been apprentice Grim Reapers for three hours... and they were already gone. They barely had ti to warm up their apprentice Grim Reaper badges.

When they signed the contract with , they told that their efficiency could be described in three words: fast, accurate, ruthless.

Turns out it was die fast, die accurate, die ruthless... Honestly, I've been a Grim Reaper in Hell for quite so years now, and I've seen my fair share of short-lived apprentices, but I've never seen any as short-lived as those two...

Becoming an apprentice Reaper and then dropping dead in less than three hours... Can you believe that?"

"...."

Lance was stunned, were there really apprentice Reapers that short-lived?

He had been an apprentice Reaper for quite a while himself and certainly hadn't seen anyone kick the bucket that quickly.

To beco an apprentice Reaper in the evening and not even see the next day's sun before croaking, that's just way too fast...

"What level of bounty task did you assign to them?"

"A moderate death-level bounty task."

Hell's bounty tasks are divided into three levels: [Hard] [Death] [Hell].

Hard-level bounty tasks: Apprentice Reapers might get injured, but won't necessarily die.

Death-level bounty tasks: Apprentice Reapers have the possibility of death, but might not actually die.

Hell-level bounty tasks: Welco to Hell, congratulations to the apprentice Reapers on their promotion and pay raise.

Yes, Hell's bounty tasks have no easy tasks, only [Hard] [Death] [Hell] three levels.

Even the simplest [Hard] level tasks carry the risk of death for apprentice Reapers.

As for the [Death] level tasks, the mont you take on this mission, Hell might already be preparing your [induction ceremony].

[Hell] level tasks which anyone dares to take are definitely aiming for a promotion and a salary increase.

Technically speaking... it's fairly normal for apprentice Reapers to take on dium [Death] level bounty tasks.

Dying too quickly is just slightly abnormal.

"Great, directly promote them and give them a raise."

"No way, if I promote and give them a raise just after they died, I'd be investigated."

"I haven't had ti for bounty tasks lately, I need to bond with the Young Dragon."

"To bond with a Young Dragon, you've got to be willing to spend money. If you won't spend on the Young Dragon, when will you beco a Dragon Knight? The reward for this bounty task is 35 Gold Coins, and your monthly salary is just 20 Gold Coins.

You haven't collected a salary in hundreds of years, you don't have much money left, do you? If you had money, you wouldn't be living in this kind of deep mountain wilderness.

Pal, it's ti to stretch your legs a bit. With your strength, when you get there, you could finish this bounty task in three to five minutes.

Do the smart thing, don't force , the Hell Grim Reaper, to give you a promotion and a raise."

"....."

"Sa old rules, I can take the bounty task, but you don't get to tell how I complete it. After I complete it, you'll have to et so small additional conditions I propose."

"Deal!"

Death God Solomon readily agreed to Lance. He had heard from his Grim Reaper friends last night that the higher-ups seed to be planning to transfer so Reapers to take charge of collecting the ghosts of the creatures from the Demon Realm.

He, as a first-level [Grim Reaper], might be relocated there, and when that ti cos... he would need a powerful [apprentice Reaper] to help him suppress those fierce Demons and ghosts and goblins rampaging through the Demon Realm.

Lance, the powerful [apprentice Reaper] who had lived for over a thousand years, was a perfect fit.

"Have you seen this human in Hell?"

With a gentle tap of his Dragon Claw on his forehead, a human silhouette flew out of Lance's forehead, resembling Brude Donahue.

"Never seen him, why?"

"A formidable foe of mine, I want to see if he's in Hell, and if he is, summon him up to complete a bounty task."

"???"
