Chapter 11
Hearing the command Zaratul step a little closer to Voldrack and stared at him for a little moment before kneeling and stretching his hand towards the shoulder, a black ball of mana appeared and enveloped both the cut off arm and the shoulder for a few seconds before it vanished showing an intact arm, with a few swings Voldrack tested to see if his arm had recovered completely and to his surprise it was back to 100%. The injuries and the scars that he had suffered from the battle with the other nobles had been healed.
"So is it safe to assume that the one that I thought was my real mother is not even related to me and the one I thought was my father is not my father either"
Maverick asked as he once again broke the built-up tension in the cave, drawing the focus and attention of everyone in the cave.
"That is correct sire"
"I see"
After hearing that Maverick began to contemplate a few things, was it okay for him to take revenge and destroy his 'fathers' family even though he wasn't related to them in any way, shape and form?
Which he quickly decided that it was a no brainer to think about this. He was still going to destroy them either way, they had made him suffer for years it was only right for him to take revenge
Some may disagree that revenge was not a goal worth chasing but at this point Maverick couldn't be bothered by the morals and confines of human society.
He was going to destroy them and if anyone stood in his way they would face the same ending as his family. With that in mind he looked at Voldrack and said-
"What is your next course of action"
"I don't understand"
As soon as he finished replying, an aura of death was released by Zaratul as he was getting ready to pounce on Voldrack again.
"How dare you address sire in a casual tone like that, you deser-"
With a casual flick of his hand Maverick cut him off before he could finish what he was saying
"I said its okay to be casual, you too drop the titles and shit"
"What I mean is, I am not going to spend any more time in this place. I am going back to earth. Are you going to come with or will you remain here?"
"I am going to come with you"
"That is okay, then shall I take it as that you are willing to serve me?"
He asked with a raised eyebrow or he thought he did, as he didn't have any eyebrows
"Yes I am willing to serve as my lord, I swear to serve and protect you at the cost of my own life"
After saying that a wave of mana enveloped Voldrack and a new tattoo appeared on his wrist at the same time one appeared on Maverick's shoulder. It was the tattoo of a wyvern that had its wings wrapped around its body as if it was in a cocoon.
"Okay with that out of the way, Zaratul you shall be responsible for taking us back to earth and Voldrack upon our return you shall a secure a new place to stay. Is that understood"
"Yes!"
"For us to go back to Earth I will have to setup a formation and it will take me about 10 to 12 hours, in the meantime you can prepare or rest"
Zaratul said as he began channelling mana and mana circle began to appear on the ground inside the cave
"Voldrack follow me" Maverick said as he went outside the cave
"I am going to need a lot of money when I go back to earth, do you have any ways to secure a steady income?"
"I used to have businesses, but I think it would be safe to assume that they have been absorbed or have been taken over after the war, right now I do not have a way to secure cash"
"You are telling me that you do not have any hidden fund somewhere?"
"Am sorry to disappoint you sire"
"It's okay"
Inside the cave Zaratul heard the conversation between Maverick and Voldrack, to say that he was disappointed with the answer Voldrack gave would be an understatement he did not see the value in having Voldrack near or even the need to keep him alive. Putting the disappointment aside he chimed in sending a sort of mental message to Maverick
"Sire I have a way to secure funds"
"Oh, do tell"
"It is quite easy however it is a risky move because if discovered the angles might be able to track us down when we go back to earth"
"We will deal with it when the time comes" Maverick replied
"There is Gold here in hell and this is black gold, meaning that it carries bad luck and exude an aura of misfortune. This does not affect us demons but if the humans come in touch with the gold, they will face misfortunes be it sickness or even death, the longer you keep in contact with the gold the worse the misfortunes you will experience"
"I am suggesting that we take this gold and sell it back on earth we will have to look for a way to push it into the economy although this might result in the depreciation of gold prices if the angels don't discover it quickly and purify it"
"Then how will it be our problem if the gold drops in value, that is for them to deal with"
When he heard Mavericks answer a smile appeared on Zaratul's lips. He was happy that he had once again proved that a capable servant and more competent than Voldrack
"So Voldrack I will leave the selling of this gold to you, I am sure that this wont be a problem to you"
"Yes I believe that I will be able to handle that through my remaining networks"
With a wave of his hand Maverick then dismissed Voldrack as he went around the cave and sat down as he began to meditate and returned inside the sea of consciousness. He continued to look through the books that were on the shelves for a while before one book caught his attention it looked as if it was glowing
He took it and studied the cover trying to figure out what it was about and to his surprise the book did not have a title it was blank on the cover. He opened the book and a blinding light appeared and flying letters began to float in the air before they began to converge and began to form sentences that flew straight into Maverick's head.
A lot of information began to appear in his head in large amounts, and he felt a migraine coming before he fainted.
