Lucifer then continued to speak with a heavier tone, "I want your loyalty."
Lucifer wanted to make sure that Rachel wouldn't be able to betray him or sothing like that.
Of course, there was no way to know that unless Rachel was an old subordinate from when Lucifer was still active in wars, but it was pretty obvious that Rachel was a young demon.
However, even if there was no way to know for sure, Lucifer...still wanted to make sure.
Although it was complicated and all, it was actually not since it was Lucifer who would be doing it.
Anyways, when Lucifer said that he wanted Rachel's loyalty, Rachel quickly spoke, "What do I have to do to prove my loyalty..."
Rachel knew that just saying that she would be loyal to Lucifer from now on doesn't really an anything. After all, one can say glorious words when in front of another and say all the cruelest words behind his back.
That was why Rachel knew that what Lucifer ant by saying that he wanted Rachel's loyalty was that he would give a trial that Rachel needed to pass or sothing like that.
And it seems that she was really correct in thinking that it would be a trial as Lucifer spoke again, "Enter a contract with ."
"!" Rachel almost stood up when she heard what Lucifer said as it was just that surprising.
After all, a contract...it was sothing that a demon should never say, and it is sothing that a demon should know.
In other words, it was essential to their knowledge, but it was common sense for a demon to never say sothing like this.
Why? It was because a contract was...a way to enslave demons.
It was a way to enslave demons, and every demon didn't want to be enslaved.
In fact, no demon would want to use a contract, not even the Hell Gods.
Well, it's not like the Hell Gods would use sothing like a contract as it is only natural for demons to follow them.
Of course, that was also the sa case for Lucifer, however...Lucifer just couldn't be picky about his ways right now.
"Enter a contract with being the master and you being the slave, and I shall take that as the sign of your loyalty," Lucifer said but he was not done as he continued, "Do you accept, Rachel?"
And as soon as she heard her na, Rachel just...let words co out of her mouth without even thinking about it.
"Yes, I accept," She said as if it was only natural for her to do sothing like this.
Well, she couldn't really condemn Lucifer for wanting to use a contract to bind Rachel to him despite being a demon as she knew how hard it is to trust another living being.
And Lucifer was...he was currently feeling regret right now.
'Damn it. To think I would have to use a contract,' Lucifer thought as he shook his head left and right.
Even though Lucifer was a cruel man, he still had his priorities and principles straight.
He was not a demon who would use a contract as it was sothing that demons naturally don't want to use even if one has beco a Hell God.
However, just what is a contract? A contract is an agreent between a demon and any other living creature.
It could be between a demon and a human, an angel, a monkey, an animal, and another demon as well.
If a contract has been done with any other race, the participating demon would have to be a slave to that individual.
If a contract has been done between demon to demon, the two demons would then choose who would beco the master and who would beco the slave.
However, the thing that makes the contract special is how it is done.
A contract is done with the participants' souls. It would be connected with their souls, and anyone who does not respect the contents of the contract would die imdiately and vanish.
Of course, the one who would only have to respect the contents of the contract is the slave, not the master.
In other words, this was sothing like a natural curse to the demons as they would always be a slave if they go to a contract with another race.
Even Lucifer would be a slave if another race would be able to force him to do a contract, and that is also why Lucifer and the other Hell Gods never considered using a contract to gain followers.
This is also why Lucifer never considered using the contract in order to make sure that Asgo would never betray him or sothing like that.
It was against Lucifer's principles as a demon and as a man as well.
'However, right now...I have no choice,' Lucifer thought as he finally stopped shaking his head.
It was indeed the truth that Lucifer can't do anything in this situation.
Now that Lucifer saw that the natural fear that the demons had for the Hell Gods didn't work on Asgo, it was natural to think that it wouldn't work on Rachel as well.
Although it seems working right now, it may not work later or down the line.
There would definitely co a ti when the fear would weaken, and to make sure that he wouldn't be betrayed, Lucifer had to use the contract.
It was then that Lucifer finally spoke again, "I, known as the Fallen Demon, Archdemon Lucifer, shall enter into a contract with Rachel."
And as soon as he said those words, a big magic circle suddenly appeared on the ground that he was standing on.
The big magic circle covered the whole area, and that was not all as Lucifer's body...started to lighten up.
This lighten up was the process of his soul being prepared for the contract, but he was not the only one to lighten up as Rachel's body also began to glow in the light.
However, Rachel...she was currently confused right now as she tried to rember what Lucifer just said right now.
'He said...he said Fallen Demon, Archdemon Lucifer, right? I didn't mishear that, right?' Rachel thought as she closed-opened her eyes as she tried hard to rember what Lucifer said.
And...it was as she just heard. In her mories, Lucifer really did say Fallen Demon, Archdemon Lucifer.
'B-b-b-but...that's impossible!!' Rachel thought as shock and surprise ca over her emotions.
After all, it was indeed impossible for Sir Lucifer...Archdemon Lucifer to suddenly show up in this place.
It was widely known by the public that Sir Lucifer was already dead, which is why Rachel knew that it was impossible for Lucifer to be in this place.
However...'The magic circle is not disappearing...' Rachel thought as she looked at the ground.
The ground was still shining in so kind of light and the magic circle was not disappearing.
And the fact that the magic circle was not disappearing was...absurd!
'No way! Is he really the Fallen Demon, Archdemon Lucifer?!? For the magic circle not disappear even though what he just said was impossible...that can only an one thing!'
He really is the Archdemon Lucifer! Rachel thought as she felt goosebumps all over her body and chills run down her spine.
Her body tingled all over this realization, but that was not all as many kinds of emotions were stirring inside her right now.
After all, Archdemon Lucifer was a Hell God who ruled from the past.
'If he's really him...being a slave doesn't sound so bad...'
Right. Being a slave to soone like Lucifer doesn't sound so bad.
'No! Wait, I have to confirm this first!' Rachel thought as she opened her mouth to speak.
"I, known as Rachel, shall enter into a contract with the Fallen Demon, Archdemon Lucifer."
And as soon as she said that, the light around Lucifer's body and Rachel's body started to rise in the air and get intertwined together.
Lucifer's soul, which had the color of black was dominating Rachel's soul, which had the color of...none. It was transparent, and that was only natural as it was a soul.
The fact that Lucifer's soul had the color of black just shows that he was indeed special.
And it didn't take long for Lucifer's soul to finish dominating Rachel's soul as his soul returned back to his body and Rachel's soul returned back to her body.
Rachel's soul, before, was transparent, but now...it was tainted a little bit as it had the shade of weak black. That was the proof that the contract with the souls has been executed without any problem.
And while that was happening, Rachel was just...staring straight into the abyss of life.
Why? It was because she just confird that it was indeed the Archdemon Lucifer who was making a contract with her.
Lucifer's identity was so scandalous as Lucifer was known to be dead, but now...he was here in this place, making a contract with Rachel.
At least, for Rachel, this was sothing unbelievable, which is why she was so shocked.
However, it seems that she didn't have the ti to be shocked anymore as Lucifer spoke.
"The contract is finished. From now on, I am your one and only master, Rachel."
"Stand up."
