Chapter 213: Holding the Cat Hostage to Command the Demon

~9 min read 1,628 words

"I told you to calm down, but you just wouldn't listen."

Looking at Enis pressed into the stone, Houste also felt a bit helpless.

"I see, so this is what you rely on to control your master?"

Black mist began to rise from the female demon's entire body, her cloak was lifted by the air current, and a pair of demon wings emerged from her back.

"Hey, Enis, don't you go slandering me, I'm not controlling the master, I just didn't want to see you eat bitterness, so I gave you a reminder.

This boy, he's called Broly, he has coveted this home's master's eldest daughter, and his strength is no different from a monster's.

That finger flick just now, you should also be able to sense the gap between you and him, and that was still with him holding back.

But if you continue to make a move, what comes next won't just be being flicked away."

Houste gave another reminder.

"No need for more nonsense!"

As she spoke, Enis's figure rapidly retreated, directly taking flight to reach the air over ten meters above the courtyard ground, only stopping after pulling away a sufficient distance.

"Physical aspects were never my strong suit to begin with, managing to win against me in that regard doesn't count for much.

I, Enis, Lord Wobak's loyal servant, follower, what I'm truly good at is divine magic.

Now, let you blasphemers witness my power~"

Enis raised her hand and began to chant: "O evil god who controls sloth and tyranny, pass through the seven gates of the abyss, grant me the power to scorn the heavens..."

A deep purple magic power energy ball condensed above the opponent's palm, the bright moon was obscured at this moment by the purple sphere emitting an ominous aura.

"It's cursed lightning, this guy Enis, she intends to blow this whole place flat!"

Hearing Enis's chant, Houste was originally still a bit nervous, but seeing the boy walk to the side and look up at the outside sky, thinking of the scene where he had easily taken her own attack magic before, she directly relaxed.

Although her magic attainment couldn't compare to Enis's, but thinking of how easily Broly had taken her magic back then, Enis's magic which was probably only two or three times more powerful than her own attack magic shouldn't be able to pose too great a threat either.

"Hey hey hey, you female demon floating up there, is it really okay to directly use an area-of-effect attack magic? You should know your so-called lord is in my hands!"

Just when Houste thought the boy would take the attack, or directly kill Enis in seconds, she didn't expect the first to act would be Huihui, only to see Huihui grab Xiaohei who was rubbing against Broly's pant leg, and lift this cat up, blocking it in front of herself.

"Ah, you're despicable!"

Seeing this, the female demon who was originally still aggressively condensing a high-power magic finally reacted, realizing their noble Lord Wobak was still down below.

"Huihui, you using Xiaohei to block magic, is that not too good?"

Yunyun looked worriedly at the black cat in the girl's hand.

"Yunyun you don't speak, that guy is coming for my family's Xiaohei.

Come on, you demon who wants to abduct my family's kitty, what are you going to do now?"

Huihui pushed Yunyun who had leaned over to the side, then shook the hostage in her hand... uh, cat-hostage, giving the choice to the female demon in mid-air to make the selection.

Enis's expression changed for a moment, but in the end she still extinguished her magic, and after falling from the air, with the appearance of being coerced, she asked the great villain girl Huihui: "What exactly do you want before you'll let my master go?"

"Hmph, you guy actually broke the rock mountain in my family's courtyard, go outside and find a good one to swap in first, then we'll talk."

"No, wasn't it him who flicked me away, making me smash onto it and break it? What does that have to do with me?"

Enis pointed at Broly and said very resentfully.

"Are you swapping it or not?"

Huihui didn't reason with the female demon at all, just shook the black cat in her hand, and made Enis fly out with a constipated expression to find a big stone.

By the time she found a roughly similar sized stone outside and laboriously carried it over here, Broly's group was already eating hot pot.

"Huff, huff, the stone you wanted, I've carried it over, should let my master go now, right?"

Enis carried the big stone into the courtyard, then panted her way to the side of the house, asking Huihui who was sitting in the seat of honor inside.

"This matter, we'll talk after you first drag away that trash in the courtyard."

Huihui ate her boiled meat, took the black cat out from her bosom and shook it at the female demon, then ordered her to do work again.

Enis: "..." That boy who flicked her away with just a finger snap was sitting right next to the hateful guy holding her master, she couldn't even attempt a sneak attack, Enis could only obediently carry that smashed big stone in the courtyard and walk out with it.

And by the time Enis returned, even though she had used reinforcement magic to reinforce her body, her whole body was already trembling uncontrollably.

"You can... let my master... go now?"

She asked.

"My home hasn't been cleaned up much recently."

Huihui spoke again, still holding the cat the same way as when eating boiled meat just now, except this time what she did while holding the cat was blow out the candles on the birthday cake.

Enis looked at the boy beside her holding a dining knife, and could only silently pick up the water bucket and rag pointed out in the courtyard, draw water at the well then enter the wooden house, and while Broly and the others cut cake and divided cake, she did the work of cleaning the house interior.

"Damn it, why did things turn out like this?"

Enis crouched on the ground wiping the floor with a rag, not understanding how things had become like this.

"Could it be, this is also caused by this magic tool bracelet?"

When buying it back then, she heard this was a tool that could let one encounter the person they wanted to meet, but after wearing it, she only kept encountering useless trash males.

Wanting to smash this thing and remove it, she couldn't achieve it because the workmanship quality was too good, the result was she ate her fill of bitterness before arriving here.

And after coming here, trash males she didn't encounter, but instead she encountered a terrifying boy who obstructed her from retrieving her master.

"This damn cursed item!"

Enis attributed her misfortune to the magic tool bracelet on her hand, and just as she was dejectedly scrubbing the rag in the water bucket, a piece of cake on a plate was suddenly handed to her face.

"Pretty demon big sister, cake for you to eat."

Xiaomi held the cake, stood in front of her and said.

Enis blanked a bit, the plate with cake was directly stuffed into her hands.

After doing this, Xiaomi ran back without looking back, but her mouth was shouting: "Xiaomi still wants to eat, Xiaomi wants the strawberry piece~"

"Eh, Xiaomi, didn't you just cut and take two pieces of cake?"

"Houste is bigger, I gave her two pieces of cake~"

Such dialogue came from over there.

"Enis, have you calmed down now?"

Houste arrived at her side, also holding a plate with a piece of cake, and continued, "This family did not control Wobak-sama; Wobak-sama simply chose to stay here, and was not willing to leave with me."

Enis looked at the piece of cake in her hand in silence for a while, then suddenly turned her head and asked Houste, "Do you want to form a Summoning Contract with that girl?"

"Cough cough cough..."

Houste began to cough, looking somewhat panicked.

"What nonsense are you spouting?"

"That girl possesses extremely high Demon Affinity; even I was nearly charmed just now. I don't believe that you, as a Martial Demon, would truly not take your master away just because the master doesn't want to leave."

Speaking to this point, Enis paused, thought of the boy who had flicked her away, then added, "Unless that terrifyingly powerful guy is stopping you from taking Wobak-sama away!"

Houste was silent for a while, then said, "Broly did not stop me. I indeed chose to stay because of Xiaomi. After serving Wobak-sama for so long, I suddenly want to live an ordinary daily life."

As a Martial Demon, Houste's past was either in battle or on the road to battle; he was weary of it to some degree.

"Of course, a more important point is that I have confirmed that little black cat is merely a part of Wobak-sama; the true Wobak-sama broke free of the seal seven years ago.

And the reason for not appearing may be that that lord has his own ideas; for example, perhaps just like me, that lord also wants to live an ordinary life."

"What?"

Enis's eyes widened.

"Don't be so surprised; you also aren't unaware of Wobak-sama's situation. He was forcibly slandered into an Evil God by the Axis Cult.

The seal caused his reputation to depart from the public eye. Now that the seal is broken yet he does not show himself before us, the reason that lord would do so is easily inferred..."
