I narrowed my eyes to look at the leader before finally saying, "Alright, it doesn’t matter how strong you are since that isn’t what I’m here for. As long as you can represent the ice demons, that’s enough."
The leader gave a nod before saying, "Only why are you looking to talk to the one that can represent the ice demons? What are you looking for?"
Revealing the sa smile as before, I said, "Like I said, I want to help you return to the territory of the demons."
"And we’re supposed to believe that you would do that out of the kindness of your heart?" The leader gave a snort as he said this.
The other ice demons all looked like they thought the sa.
I wasn’t offended by this since this was just demon culture.
This was the reason why I had been aggressive in the first place.
If I wasn’t, then they would have beco suspicious as to whether I was a real demon or not.
But once they saw that I had the sa mannerisms as any other demon, they let their guard down a bit. They didn’t have any doubts as to what my identity was and they seed to submit a bit since I was a stronger demon.
Still, there was a reason why I was here acting like a demon.
"It’s very simple, I want you to serve soone."
The ice demons all knitted their brows the mont that they heard this.
The history of the ice demons was a complicated one.
They were a weak group of demons, but it wasn’t as if they had been kicked out of the territory of demons right away.
Instead, they had actually spent so ti serving other demons.
It was just that whenever they served other demon tribes, they had been used as disposable tools. Before they chose to serve other demon tribes, their population had been more than triple what their tribe currently had.
It was only because they had been used by those demon tribes that they had lost many of their mbers.
So they weren’t exactly keen on serving soone else.
"I can see that you don’t like this idea, but I can tell you that you won’t be used in the sa way. Instead, you’ll receive sothing that will make you much stronger than before."
The ice demons still had the sa look on their faces, as well as a look that made it seem like they thought of as so kind of conman.
I didn’t mind this as I raised my hand and gathered the flas in it.
The mont that the flas appeared, all of the ice demons couldn’t help taking a step back.
I just ignored all of this as I said, "You’re afraid of my flas, but I haven’t always had them. It was because I was helped by the one that I’m trying to introduce you to that I was able to gain this power."
Seeing the traces of doubts that they still had, I got rid of the flas and rubbed the ring on my finger.
The mont that I rubbed it, there was a change that happened.
The horns on my head beca much smaller than before.
At the sa ti, the mana that I had been releasing also shrank in size and force.
The ice demons naturally sensed this and they all looked confused when they sensed this.
I just raised the ring on my hand and said, "If it wasn’t for this ring, then I never would have beco the demon that I was today. The one that I’m trying to introduce you to will also give you sothing that will help you beco stronger as well."
Seeing the example that I showed them, it seed like they were slowly being convinced of this.
However, it wasn’t as if they would be convinced that easily.
"But you’ll still restrict our freedom, won’t you?"
"If he did, then why would he allow to co all the way here to recruit you?"
The ice demons were surprised to hear this, but then they couldn’t help slowly nodding in agreent.
This was the territory of the humans, it wasn’t a place that could be stepped on that easily. Unless one was given great freedom, then they wouldn’t be allowed to co all the way here...
"Who is your master?"
"The demon king...or at least the one that’s currently on the throne, but he doesn’t have the sa power as the other demon kings. You could say that he’s currently just an interim king that wants to beco the permanent demon king."
The ice demons imdiately frowned when they heard this.
Once they heard this, it wasn’t hard for them to figure out what the situation was.
Now to them, they had to make the right gamble.
If they supported an up and coming demon king, then it might be their chance to establish themselves in the future. But if he was a demon king that was about to be used and thrown out...
Then it would an that they would be risking their entire tribe for nothing.
"How certain are you that he’ll be able to give us this power that you’ve shown."
With a smile, I took out an ice crystal that I tossed over to the leader of the ice demons.
He looked at it with one brow raised before poking it with one finger.
The mont that he poked it, the expression on his face imdiately changed.
He grabbed it in his hand before he was covered in ice.
Once he was covered in ice like this, he looked back up at as a smile slowly appeared on his face.
"Don’t you think about it." I said when I saw him looking at like this.
The ice demon leader didn’t care as he raised his hand and gathered ice in it.
But I just shook my head with a bitter smile and gave a simple snap of my fingers.
