As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime Chapter 126
Advertisement
"Demon's Contract?"
Zach exclaimed.
He was both familiar and unfamiliar with the word demon.
Demon.
It was a species that only appeared in the myths and legends of the Sailu Continent.
But whether Demons actually existed in this world was a mystery.
Some people said that the bards made it up to scare people.
But others said that the Bottomless Abyss led to the place where the demons lived.
It was a land of death.
Other than the demons that people heard about, there were countless abyss monsters.
Now, hearing the word "Demon" in the elder's mouth shocked Zach.
"Are there really Demons in this world?"
The elder didn't react.
He chuckled and said, "If even Angels exist here, then why are there no Demons?"
Hearing this, Zach was stunned.
Yes, even angels, magical and holy creatures, existed.
Then why didn't Demons appear?
It was just that there were two races. One lived in the Heavenly Realm, and the other was indeed in the Bottomless Abyss.
At the same time, Zach thought of the name of the scroll.
"Demon's Contract?"
He whispered.
As if he wanted to understand the meaning of these words.
The elder heard his whisper and explained, "Tearing the scroll is equivalent to signing a contract with the demon. The demon will fulfill your request, but at the same time, he will also receive the corresponding sacrifice according to your request."
He paused for a moment and continued, "I think you have also heard about the need for sacrifices in the clan."
Zach nodded.
The elder said meaningfully, "You better prepare enough sacrifices, or the consequences may not be something you can bear."
The elder sounded threatening, but also seemed exhorting.
Such a complicated expression confused Zach.
However, he knew that the price of tearing the scroll was going to be serious.

The elder stopped at Preston for a while, then left.
They set off on the journey to the tribal land.
Zach looked at the scroll in his hand, which was surrounded by endless black fog, and his eyes were full of uncertainty.
After all, he didn't know what the price was, or how big the price would be.
Of course, he was not willing to take the risk.
He rolled his eyes and suddenly thought of a good idea.
He tidied up his dressing.
He walked to Morris's residence with a smile on his face.
Since he did not want to take the risk, he might as well hand it over to Morris.
He was someone that Zach hated anyway.
"Knock, Knock?"
There was a knock on the door.
Morris, who was resting on the bed, was shocked.
Usually, only Zach, whom he disliked very much, knocked this way.
Thinking that it was him, Morris felt a burst of displeasure.
In his heart, he knew that this Zach had some bad ideas and wanted to teach him a lesson.
But although he was a little annoyed, he wasn't afraid.
After all, his absolute strength was there.
He had an Advanced-Level Holy Rank, and Zach had just broken through to the Intermediate-Level Holy Rank.
Moreover, he even knew how to butcher.
He had completely relied on his powerful family to back him up.
Otherwise, on the battlefield, that kid would not even dare to come out.
In his heart, he was mocking Zach.
His mouth was also not slow. "Come in!"
Morris's deep voice sounded.
Zach pushed the door open with a thick smile on his face.
Morris could tell at a glance that he didn't have any good intentions.
He curled his lips unhappily and asked, "Deputy Zach, what's the matter?"

The word 'deputy' was heavily bitten by Morris.
It displayed his status as a general.
As expected, when he heard Morris's deliberate emphasis, Zach's smile froze.
But when he remembered his plan...
Zach still tried to put on a smile.
"General Morris, there is something that I need your permission to do."
Something was wrong!
When Zach used this expression to face him, Morris was very sure that something was wrong.
Zach had always looked down on him, so why did his attitude suddenly change?
This situation made him instantly cautious.
At this time, Zach took out the scroll that had been in his arms.
Morris's eyes instantly widened.
The black fog filled with an ominous aura instantly made his wolf hair stand on end.
He hurriedly asked, "Could this be that thing?"
Zach nodded with a smile and said, "General Morris, you must also know that opening this thing requires a sacrifice. I don't have that much authority to decide the sacrifice, so I can only hand this scroll to you, General."
Morris looked at Zach with a doubtful gaze.
The grandmaster felt that Zach had some bad intentions.
But he could not say.
Was it because the decision to sacrifice would cause dissatisfaction among the werewolves, so, in order to not ruin his image in the hearts of the werewolves, Zach decided to let me be the bad guy?
After thinking about it, Morris could only think of this reason.
He laughed in his heart.
He thought that this Zach was really petty.
He had to care about such a small matter.
Moreover, Morris did not intend to give Zach the right to choose the sacrifice.
He wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of some of Zach's parties.
So that he could strengthen his control over this place.
Thinking of this, Morris looked at Zach with a faint smile and said, "Don't worry, I have already prepared the sacrifice. Deputy Zach, thank you for your trouble."
Seeing Morris's expression, Zach frowned.
Could it be that he saw through my plan?
But Zach, who was in a hurry to get rid of the Demon Contract in his hand, could not care less.
He could only say, "In that case, I will leave this scroll here. From now on, I will not disturb the General's rest."
After saying this, Zach left.
After Zach's figure disappeared,
Morris walked over and took the scroll in his hand.
A group of things that were deep in his bones seemed to penetrate his skin and enter his body.
This feeling made his heart ring with alarm.
He felt that this thing was really not a good thing.
But he did not know the specific effect.
He could not help but mutter, "This Zach, he put it down and left without telling me what the use is."
He stared at the scroll and thought, can this thing really deal with the cardinal?
Although this scroll did not give him a good feeling, its power was actually not as fierce as the flame.
This made him doubt the ability of this scroll.
Outside the door, he let go of this scroll.
Zach's mood was also relaxed.
When the time came, Morris would be the one to open the scroll, so the one to enter a contract with the demon would naturally be Morris.
It will have nothing to do with him.
If anything happens, it should have nothing to do with him right?
