Chapter 209 Devana En Kliptos Erayia
[Name: Devana En Kliptos Erayia
Race: Devine Medusae
Class: Former Queen of the Medusae
Description: The dethroned Queen of the Medusae who was banished from her kingdom for killing the Crown Princess. A mad woman who believes her instincts more than anything and would follow them blindly enough to wipe out her entire race.
Just because she has been dethroned doesn\'t mean she has lost her powers. It simply means that she has been removed from an authority; an authority where she can easily wipe out her entire race of existence if she wants to. The current Queen is too young and doesn\'t even hold 10% of the capabilities and powers which Devana holds.....

"What do you mean he is your master, Miss Angela?!!" Spoke Devana said as she looked at me carefully. Frustration filled her eyes as she slightly bit her lips in irritation, locking her arms one over the other. She stood there firmly as she looked at me with an open glare.
"You must be Devana," I spoke as I observed her.
"?!!!" Shocked, her eyes observed me while the others grew confused. Her previous irritation was gone, and now she was more than just surprised.
-Slash!
[Time Rejection!]
I saw her slashing me in the future and I used [Time Rejection] swiftly to cancel her attack as I asked,"you don\'t like that name?"
Her eyes were observing me deep as both Angela and Miya calmly looked at me. If previously they were confused, now they grew curious as they tried to figure out what was going on here.
"Eraiya. Call me Eraiya if you want to, but don\'t ever take that name again,"She spoke as she glared at me. Perhaps there was a story behind that, too? "Who are you?" she asked again, this time with a complexion in her eyes, but her previous serious gaze didn\'t fade much.
"Let\'s not talk about me. There are many important things that we need to discuss with you right now," I smiled as I continued,"I am curious about your story. You were dethroned despite being the strongest. You knew killing the crown princess would create a storm, yet you did that gladly. Even when you hold the power to be queen, you would gladly work under someone else," I spoke as I looked at Angela standing beside me.
Angela was flabbergasted, to say the least, and Miya, too, looked really surprised to see that. As for Eraiya herself, she was just making a complicated expression as she muttered,"just who are you… or what kind of powers you possess… Stop Looking into my past!"
The last line she shouted as a sad expression appeared on her face.
"I can only see bits of information. If I want, I can see more in detail, but don\'t you think it would be better if you were the one to tell your story?" I continued with the same smile as before. When I saw her, I immediately decided to bring her to my team. Other than me, only she knows her true potential and If I can bring her out of her problems, then perhaps I can make her mine?
It was fascinating to see a Queen of an entire kingdom come here in front of me. Maybe if I can play this right, maybe I can get a whole Kingdom backing me. But, I need to be careful with my manipulation here or else things might play out wrong.
"What exactly do you want from me?" She was growing skeptical of me as she looked at me with wariness.
"You," I gave an honest answer. Maybe it was because fabricating something would be a tall order and if I got caught, it would be all over, or maybe I believed my ability to persuade without lying. I decided to play with my words here.
"Do you want me to become your slave too?"she asked as she looked at Angela first and then at Miya
"Not really," I looked at her as a thought passed by my mind,\'I want your entire kingdom to become mine,\' but I put it at the back of my brain as I continued,"How about we make a deal?"
"What deal?" She asked
"I will help you get back to your former power, while you help me protect a couple of people I want you to protect for me. How about it?" I spoke, and she stared at me with the same seriousness as before,"And what makes you think that I want to go back to my former power?"
"To save your father from the Dungeon of Emptiness?" This time, my smile was a little more of a smirk and her eyes stopped at me, shaking a little.
"I will help you out, but I have a few conditions." I started opening up the deal. Her eyes were still gazing at me, her expression lost in thoughts. Perhaps she was recalling something, perhaps she was thinking about something else? Then, after the pause that felt like a really long one, she asked,"What do you mean by saving my father from the Dungeon of Emptiness?"
"Hmmm? Exactly what it sounds like. Is there anything wrong with it?" I asked as I looked at her status again. It was still showing that her father was trapped in a dungeon of Emptiness.
"My father… I have been searching for him for decades… he vanished from the empire a few decades ago and the empire had declared him dead… " she spoke in bits as I found her barely able to breathe from excitement. Yeah, she wasn\'t looking at me with that piercing gaze anymore but with the look of a child who has finally got her birthday present. She was happy. Ecstatic.
\'So she didn\'t know about the location of her father, huh? Now this could be helpful,\' I thought as I continued,
"I will help you get to your father and restore your former power. But in return you have to accept a few conditions of mine,"I hurried a little as I felt like this was the perfect time to strike a deal. And just like I anticipated,
"YES! I WILL DO IT! WHATEVER THE CONDITIONS BE, I WILL FOLLOW IT"
Pushing her a bit away from me, I spoke out,"All right. All right. Let\'s make a contract," I spoke as I looked at this crazy girl. From a super serious girl to a crazy child, it has been a while since I dealt with a person like her.
"Do any of you know any powerful magic regarding contracts?" I asked as I observed Miya and Angela and unsurprisingly, both of them nodded as they looked at me. And thus we began forming the blood contract between me and this crazy Medusae… just like that, I gained another slave in the same evening.
