THE LIAR FACE DEMON (Legendary Wizard Saint)

Chapter 7: Demon’s POV (final)

“Is there anything else I should know?” I asked with a sweet smile. “I am new to this whole demon continent thing”

“Oh, right, yes there is……..since the tournament is taking place, there will be massive amount of people in the cities and inns, you need to have a good amount of money supply or you won’t even be able to afford a house to sleep in” replied a demon that was behind the snake demon, it was a spider-looking demon.

“Whaaaaaaaaaaaat?” I said aloud. “Money has never been my friend”

“hahahahaha” laughed the demons. “You are so much fun”

“No, seriously guys, y’ know, money has never been my friend” I repeat again trying to explain. “Y’ know a while back I was addicted to candy, and before that to sodas and before that to sandwiches, and before that to pay-money-speaking contests, and before that to having se--x--- with beautiful girls----and before that to eating ramen…..”

“What? Did he just say something about having se x with beautiful girls? Is that a sport? What’s se x?” asked a small horned and green eye demon that sat all the way at the back to his mother.

“Don’t worry about it, it’s nothing dear” answered his mother who also have horns.

“I have so many addictions, it’s crazy!!!” I yelled. “Money always leaves my hand faster than I can run after it”

“hahahahahahaahahaha” laughed everyone thinking I must be the country’s first rate comedian.

“If you have this much issues, how many issues are you going to have when the tournament start” said the spider.

“hahahahahahahahaha” laughed everyone in the carriage. “Can’t wait to see you fight…..it’s going to be hilarious”

“No it’s not…..wait until you see my awesome skills and powers……you’ll be bowing in front me like the spidery bug you are……..hahahahahahaha” I thought while laughing but to the others it looks like I am laughing at the joke they said when it’s not true at all.

“I actually know how you can get money really fast” said the snake demon. “If you go to the city and go to the demonic monsters hunting corps, they’ll pay you for the amount of demonic monsters you hunt and kill”

“Ohhhhh, so that’s why they aren’t any monsters attacking us right now” thought the human. “That explains so much, those corps find and kill those monsters for a living……interesting”

“Yeah, if you are really good as you have claimed to be ever since we begin travelling with you, then you’ll have no problem…..but those monsters are really dangerous……you should know….you might die” explained the spider demon.

“I am powerful, so don’t worry……hahahahahahaha” I laughed. “Finally money has decided to find me instead…….I am going to turn my life around starting today…….no more addictions, no more losing money……..no more se…x……….with girls………I am going to restrained myself and my desires”

“Bravo!!!! Bravo!!!! Bravo!!!!” said all the demons in the carriage. “You are going to be amazing!!!!”

“Yes, I will be” I said. “hahahahaha”

Two hours and a half after I had that conversation with those demons, I was already making out with a very stunningly beautiful sexy demon demoness girl…….I think the emotion I should be feeling is shame or guilt……..but I just feel turn on right now………

This is what happened after I had that conversation with my fellow demons:

We continued advancing steadfast towards the city of Razamfool. After what felt like half an hour but was actually 15 minutes we could finally see the city and some people near the borders.

Soldiers.

As I decided what to do or say to let me in, I was reassured by my companions that there was nothing to worry about. We all decided on what to do first and we were all excited about being in the city.

Just like my companions told me, I was able to get into the city quite easily. No questions were asked about a human’s presence.

“Guess everyone has seen humans before and humans usually came here before? Or is it something else entirely?” I thought noticing how odd it was but not persisting for an answer.

I continued on my search for work. I walked and walked and saw many different things. I saw large towers built using earth magic and I saw massive amount of those orbs all around the city. I believe it is called calloupso orb.

The demons I asked that were setting them up said it was to watch the tournament live. While walking I found the line for the tournament.

“I think I am lost” I thought. “I thought I was supposed to go straight in a straight path to the monster hunting corps? Did I accidentally made a turn without knowing?”

I continue to move up in the line as people finished registering. The person giving the application and calculating if you were strong enough to enter the tournament (since the demons don’t want any needless deaths) was a person that look really hard-working and he seem to take his job really seriously.

“Now that I think about it….” I thought. “All the demons said my face look very trustworthy….if that is so and this guy look really hard-working, then he must look really lazy-looking for the demonic races. But then again I could be wrong about him looking hard-working, his head is…..”

After waiting quite an eternity but was actually 45 minutes, my turn finally arrived. I went to the application registration section.

“Here’s the application, go to that desk over there to fill it out, the required information on the application is simply your name, and your line number (the number that was assigned to you when you got in line). Before then, I will calculate your power level, please stand still as I rank you” said the lazy-looking guard.

“……..helmet” I said.

“What? Your name is helmet?” asked the guard sloppily.

“You should wear a helmet, it would cover your face and make you seem less…..” I said.

“Yeah, I was wearing it, but then I went out hunting some stupid monster and the monster attack me and destroyed my specially designed helmet” said the guard in a sad tone. “And I didn’t have a chance to buy another one”

“I think I can help with that” I said with a sweet smile, as I summoned a helmet from my pocket dimension.

“Magic, huh…..” said the guard as he gladly take the helmet. “You know what, you passed the inspection, you can participate in the tournament even though you are human, but you should write some kind of demonic name to enter though, according to the rules all sort of demons is allowed”

“Thank you very much” I said. “I will not forget this”

“The name’s Zonisk by the way” said Zonisk as he put the helmet on.

I walked away from Zonisk and went to fill the application.

“Just who is this guy??!!!” thought Zonisk the guard. “Oh, well whatever, he’ll get destroy anyway in the tournament, doesn’t matter……but nice helmet……I am going to show it off when I see the Demon Emperor on the first day of the tournament……bet he’ll be jealous….hahahaha….this works really well to hide my lazy-looking face and it suits the size of my face quite well…”

Application ID:

First name:

Last name:

Age:

How powerful are you?

Where did you come from?

Do you think you are going to win the tournament?

“Did that Zonisk guy really come up with those application questions?” I wonder. “No wonder people thinks he’s lazy….”

“My name is……….Demon…….” I thought. “That’s the name I’ll go by now…… heheheheehehehe ……. just simply Demon, that’ll sure rock the demons off their rocker…… hahahaha”

After I finished my application, I went back on my path to find the monster hunting corps. I asked around again, and found the right path to go. After what felt like forever, I finally found the three story tower for the hunting corps. I got in and registered myself as Demon.

They took my picture using magic and gave me a card with my name, for some reason since I told them I didn’t want to put my last name (I lied and told them Demon is my name, and that my last name is gruesome and I’ll not want to put it) they put saint as my last name, as for my middle name well it’s LW.

So my full name is Demon LW Saint. The clerk said that my face was so trustworthy and made her feel at ease that she thought I could be a demon saint, so when I say I didn’t want to put my last name, she asked how about saint?

Everything happened quickly. I got my card on the same day, and follow the directions on the free map that they give when you become a member of monster hunting corps.

I follow the directions to the place where the most monsters lived in and what I found is quite interesting. I found this beautiful girl walking in such a dangerous place.

She had dark-purple wings and her eyes glowed yellowish-red. She kind of reminds me of a cat or a tiger or both. She was fighting a bunch of three-headed alpha wolves that are supposedly the medium level monsters.

[Author’s note: Medium level monsters are between the levels of 25-45, each three-headed alpha wolves are actually level 40-45, with their king being 50]

She was surrounded by 40-50 of them. And even though she looked strong, she seems to be holding back.

I didn’t understand why. I could sense that she had a huge amount of magic, but she didn’t want to use any of it. This was so confusing that I continue to watch her fight a bit more. She’s really agile and jump or fly (or whatever is between jumping and flying) at times and she cuts the wolves with her bare hands as if her hands were sharp swords.

The wolves were not holding back either. I decided it was now or never as I noticed the demoness girl was getting more and more exhausted and the wolves seems to be calling reinforcement to their aid. I rushed to where the girl was using wind element to give me flight. I felt so uncomfortable during the flight from where I was to where she is.

“Guess I still can’t handle speed……” I thought. “I thought I gotten stronger? Guess I was wrong”

I felt the urge to throw up increase, but I held back since the hero coming to save the princess and then accidentally throwing up all over would be kind of gross, so I did my best to hold back and look cool.

“Guess you need help” I said, trying to sound like a hero.

“Who called for you, I don’t need help, I can do this myself” said the demoness.

“let’s just do this, after that you can say whatever you want” I said with a seriously cool tone. “We can talk later”

I then started attacking the wolves without holding back on them, all the while ignoring all the insults the girl was throwing my way. I defeated most of the wolves, and there was only about 6 of them left. I cut them and slice them using high-density wind magic. The girl seems to be having a much better time now.

Suddenly something happened.

A loud wolf-like sound is heard, and a big (bigger than all the other wolves) wolf appeared. That seem to be their King.

“This is bad” I thought. “I already used my magic way too much, between continuous teleportation, lowering my true magical energy capabilities for Zonisk to not suspect anything, and even showing I knew a magic trick or two by bringing forth that helmet from my pocket dimension which (truth be told, that dimension is quite far) and flying magic, and wind-slicer, took a lot more energy than I thought”

The wolf looked at me, then at the girl and seem to be debating which one of us to kill first. My brain started to work overtime and I realized my stupid miscalculation.

“Oh….wait…..my magic is low right now because I used that spell to make it look like it’s low, it’s actually still high but for everyone else it looks just average, I forgot I added this when I saw Zonisk…..”

The wolf decided to kill me first, then it leapt in the air, to attack and end my life in one attack, during that time, I remove the limiter I put.

“O’ sacred light in this world, I ask of you to remove the illusion of what I put, let my true might be shown, let it shine, let it illuminate” I said aloud.

Right when the wolf was about to land on top of me for its claws to injure me, I teleported behind it. I then used fire magic, and burn the wolf.

After all that happened, the girl and I had a nice little conversation by the fire (the wolf being burnt) and ate some wolf meat. Believe it or not, burn wolf meat actually taste really good and is a good conversation opener.

I started the conversation with do you want some meat? And that’s how we have been conversing for a good amount of time now.

Before I knew it she closed the distance between us, and said thank you for helping her. I asked about why she would use her own magic, and she responded by saying, if she did, her father would know she was in danger and she didn’t want that, she wanted to bring money to the city for those people that came for the tournament can use it to pay rent and hotel fees.

We talked some more and before I knew it, we were kissing. This girl was really clueless about the world (and no, I did not take advantage of her, merely asked her if she has ever kissed a guy and she said no, and I asked do you want to know how it feels, and that’s when we kissed).

She was so stunningly perfect that I couldn’t resist not trying at least kissing. The way she was dressed, that beautiful light pink dress, those heels, her slightly red lips, her smile, even her voice is perfect.

She is probably the most beautiful girl I have ever seen (and that’s coming from me, and I been to places). We talked some more, I made her laugh a couple of times and made her blush too.

When I realized it was getting dark, we decided to enter back to the city.

I gather some of the wolf meat I could gather and went my separate way from her, but only after hearing her name. Carlardantis. I sold the meat to the monster hunting corpse and got a good fortune with that money.

I went around shopping for a house and found a 7-bedroom house. I wanted a house with plenty of rooms for me to have fun with. I wanted to buy a piano and play it in one of those rooms, maybe fill a whole room with nothing but candies……. chocolate is definitely a must……my desires were growing strong…..but I must put a hold on them for a while.

I rented the house, but the down payment was kind of hard. They took 90% of my money. I only have enough to eat and that’s it. It might not even last four days with the rate my addictions seem to be coming back…….at this pace, aren’t I screwed?
